Chapter 211 The mastermind

(Rita)“I really feel for Amara.”The words leave my lips as Olivia and I walk out of the hospital room.“She didn’t even realize we were there.”I glance back at the closed door, my chest tightening.“She looked so… empty.”I swallow the lump forming in my throat.“What if this turns into something worse?”“What if she needs help?”Olivia lets out a weary sigh.“I know Amara.”There’s quiet certainty in her voice.“She’s stronger than most people think.”“She won’t let herself disappear into the pain.”She offers a faint smile.“She’s going to get through this. That’s just who she is.”A heavy silence settles between us as we continue down the corridor.Then another thought strikes me.“And now…”I hesitate.“It seems this has affected her relationship with Sir Rayner too.”Olivia turns to me.“I saw him leaving just before we came in.”“The look on his face…”I shake my head.“He looked completely shattered.”“It made me think Amara must’ve told him to stay away.”I frown.“Do you t

Chapter 212 The real devil

(Martha)“What are you saying, Aunt Martha?” Rita’s trembling voice echoes through the corner. “How could Maya ever do something like that?”“Exactly,” Olivia adds in disbelief. “You have to be mistaken. Maya would never do that. She’s Amara’s best friend. The person Amara trusts the most.”Rita steps closer and gently turns me to face her.“I know Maya’s way of caring can be a little… intense sometimes. But she’d never do something so cruel to Amara. If anything, she loves her like a sister.”“That was exactly what I thought too,” I say quietly.A bitter smile touches my lips before disappearing.“I’ve never really liked Maya. There was always something about her that never sat right with me. Something I could never explain.” I swallow the lump in my throat. “But never… not even in my wildest dreams, did I imagine she was capable of something this monstrous.”I draw in a shaky breath.“Maya doesn’t love Amara.”The words leave my mouth slowly.“She doesn’t care about Amara the way

Chapter 213 I trusted you

(Amara)I’m led into the large living room, my mom helping me inside when a familiar voice reaches us.“Amara… you’re home.”I slowly lift my head, my gaze landing on her.Grace.My jaw tightens.“I…” She takes a cautious step toward me. “Let me help you.”“Don’t you dare touch me!”My voice slices through the room.She freezes, shock flashing across her face as though she hadn’t expected my reaction. As though she expected me to simply let her after what she’d done.My fists clench.Maya’s words replay in my head.She did it on purpose.She made Amara lose her baby.It was all her plan.“Amara…” Her lips tremble. Her mouth opens, then closes again, no words coming out.I stare directly at her.“Why?”A bitter scoff escapes me.“Were you really thinking I’d forgive my child’s murderer?”Her eyes widen.“Mur… murderer?” A shaky breath leaves her. “You’re mistaken, Amara. I didn’t do it. I swear, I’m innocent.”“Oh really?” I pull free from my mother’s hold and close the distance betwee

Chapter 214 The calculated move

(Maya)“Ama… Amara.”I lunge forward just in time to catch her as her knees give out. She slides off the side of the bed, her body going limp against mine before she can hit the floor.“Maya…” Her voice comes out broken. She slowly lifts her tear-filled eyes to me. “How can she do that to me? She made me miscarry my child. I…” Her words catch in her throat. Her gaze darts around the room before settling back on me. “I could never have imagined Grace would do this to me. She killed my child, Maya. She planned it all.”“I knew she was up to no good.” I tighten my jaw, lowering my gaze. “She has never liked you. Never treated you well.”Guilt crashes into my expression.“It’s all my fault. I should never have let you drink that juice.”“No.” Amara shakes her head frantically. “I’m the one to blame.” Her fingers wrap tightly around my arm. “You warned me, Maya. You tried to warn me, but I didn’t listen.” Fresh tears spill down her cheeks. “It’s my fault this happened. It’s my fault.” Her

Chapter 215 Cruel fate

(Stefan)“Why does it feel like everyone’s just staring at us?” Rita asks, bringing her coffee cup close to her nose.“Yeah, it sure looks like it,” I say, darting my eyes around to catch their prying eyes.“Oh jeez!” She exclaims. “This is why I said we should keep our distance at the office. Now they’re already suspecting us.”“I did, Rita. But you don’t expect me to keep my distance from you all the time. We barely even have time for ourselves.”My voice lowers.“Oh, really?” she says sarcastically. “I guess you’ve finally gotten what you want then. Now they’re all gonna keep staring and talking about office romance between us.”“Well, that’s not a bad story either.”“Stefan…” she calls, frustration already filling her voice as a chuckle escapes me.Then I look at her and say, “Maybe it’s just you who keeps thinking about it. Because take a look…” I signal toward the people around us. “We’re just here having coffee. Who would begin thinking something else?”“Then why do they keep s

Chapter 216 The hardest goodbye

(Amara)The door to my office bursts open, and I look up to find Rayner standing there.He strides toward me, his pace hurried, his expression tense enough to make my chest tighten.I lean back in my chair, forcing myself to remain calm. “I don’t think there’s any reason for you to be here, Mr. Rayner Sinclair.”A bitter scoff tears through him.“Marriage? Really?”“Why?” I hold his gaze, refusing to let him see how much his presence unsettles me. “Am I not allowed to get married? Last I can remember, I’m free to do whatever I want with my life.”“It’s marriage we’re talking about here, Amara.”“Yes, I know.”“Then why are you agreeing to this?” His voice rises with disbelief. “How can you accept a marriage to him of all people? To Lorenzo?”A humorless smile touches my lips.“Good to know you’re only bothered about whom I’m getting married to and not the fact that I’m getting married at all.”“Amara, you know that’s not what I mean. You know—”I lift my hand, stopping him before he c

Chapter 217 The memory

(Rayner)“Do you plan on killing yourself by getting drunk?”Stefan’s voice rings beside me as he reaches for the wine bottle in my hand and pulls it away.I let out a bitter scoff.“What can I say?” I sink further into the couch, staring blankly ahead. “I’ve lost at everything, Stefan. I’m a failure. A complete failure.”“No…”“First, I failed to recognize the woman I had only ever truly loved. Then, when I finally realized it, I failed to save her from the marriage that caused her so much pain.”My throat tightens.“And now, I’ve failed to be with her.”I drag a hand down my face, the weight in my chest becoming unbearable.“I’m unable to be with Amara, Stefan. I’m a failure. I keep losing. Every single time I think I’m finally going to get something right, it slips through my hands.”My eyes burn.“And now she’s going to marry Lorenzo.”Just saying his name makes something ugly twist inside me.“To my worst enemy.”“You need to get a hold of yourself.” Stefan crouches beside me, hi

Chapter 218 The ghost returns

(Amara)“What’s going on, Amara?” Maya’s voice drifts behind me. “I’ve been trying to talk to you since yesterday, but you’ve just been ignoring me.”I keep walking, my mind flashing through the face I’d seen today.“Amara, what’s it with this marriage with Lorenzo? You don’t even love him. Why did you accept to marry him? You can’t possibly be—”Her words die in her throat as she spins me around.She stares at my face, her brows slowly pulling together as if only now noticing how pale I look.“Amara, you…”But before she can finish her words, I let the name out.“Selina…”She holds my gaze.“I saw Selina today.”Silence.For one beat, we both just stare at each other.Then a sudden, low laugh leaves her.“Wha… what do you mean?”She forcefully shuts her eyes before opening them again.“I mean, how? Where? Where did you see her?”I slowly turn around, taking two steps away as my mind flashes back to the road.The stop at the traffic light.Selina crossing in front of my car.The way s

Chapter 219 The hidden truth

(Rita)“What are you doing?”The words slip out of my mouth just as I approach Kelvin.He startles and quickly presses something on the keyboard, my eyes landing on the screen.It’s some kind of task management application, rows of assignments and progress bars covering the screen. Nothing unusual. Nothing that should make him react the way he just did.He clears his throat and straightens, a smile that doesn’t quite reach his eyes spreading across his face.“Weren’t you going to get coffee?” he asks.For a moment, I say nothing.My mind keeps replaying what I’d just seen. The way his face had flushed with fear. The way his fingers had moved quickly across the keyboard, almost desperately, as though there was something he didn’t want me to see.“Rita.”His voice snaps me out of my thoughts.I startle.“Ah, yes.” I force a smile. “I was asking if you wanted me to get coffee for you as well. But you were too engrossed in what you were doing that you didn’t hear me.”“Sorry about that. I

Chapter 220 The bargain

(Amara)My heels click against the floor as I make my way out of the meeting room, Maya beside me.Just then, Martha strides toward me too.“I just got a call. The remaining campaign shoot has been completed.”“Good.” I nod. “We’ll need to make haste, it seems. The launch is near, and we need to make sure everything is ready and completed before the due date.”“A few shots from the shoot have just been sent.” Maya stretches her iPad toward me.I take it, my fingers scrolling through the photos.Clean. Clear. On point.Isha holds up the new product in some, her smile bright as she poses for each section.I smile too.Not because of her smile.But because the long-awaited project is finally coming to life.And I can’t wait for it.This… this feels like the heart of it all.“I’ll take a look at them once I’m in the office.”I give the iPad back to her, and she nods, taking it from me.Just then, a noise from behind stops us.There seems to be some kind of commotion at the entrance.I tur
