•TALIA•"I think I have to go and talk with her, Caleb," I said when I stood up from the chair in the waiting room. "She might listen to me and not cancel the wedding anymore." "You want to talk with Isolde?" Caleb's mother scoffed. "She won't listen to a word you say. She is stubborn and you saw that when she came here. She wants us to bow down and worship her because she paid my husband's hospital bills." "I asked her, Mom," Caleb chimed in. "She paid them and didn't complain." "Did she have a choice when you're being underpaid as the COO of her company?" she chuckled. "I know you would've paid the bill if she paid you well, but because she wants you to always be at her mercy, she gives you nothing to live on. She is a greedy bitch."I chuckled, but my chest tightened when I remembered the way Isolde looked at me. It didn't make sense how she knew that something was happening between Caleb and me. Things were fine between us at the engagement party, and when I went to see her in

•ISOLDE•When I woke up that morning, the first thing that came to mind was the ZenithCore board meeting.There would be discussions about new shareholders, the budget, and the logistics expansion updates.Every important investor and partner would be there, including Marcus Hale, the businessman I wanted as ZenithCore’s next logistics partner.I got out of bed immediately and headed into the bathroom. I turned on the shower and stood under the hot water while thinking about everything waiting for me today.The rumors online were still spreading.Talia had betrayed me.Caleb was pretending nothing had happened.And I was done allowing both of them to stay close enough to destroy me again.By the time I finished showering and dressing up for the meeting, my mind was already made up. I was going to remove them from my life permanently.I walked out of my room and found Edan sitting in the living room with his laptop open. He was talking with several people through a Zoom meeting.The mo

•ISOLDE•"I'm sorry, Kaelen," I sighed. "But I need to go. We can't talk about this right now." I walked to my desk and grabbed my handbag. "You're not going back to that asshole, are you?" "Just stop!" I snapped. I shook my head and grabbed the ends of my chair. I looked down and didn't know if even going to see Caleb's father was a good idea. And Kaelen was making things even more difficult. "Caleb and Talia betrayed you," he scoffed. "They fucked each other behind your back at your engagement party and you want to tell me that you're going ahead with the wedding?" "I never said I was going ahead with anything," I huffed. "What I am telling you is that we can't do this, Kaelen." My voice came out rougher. "We can't sneak around and act as if what we are doing is okay. None of this is, and you can't stand there and expect me to jump into a relationship with you because of what Caleb did!"His jaw tightened.“Nothing about this is okay,” I continued. “And you can’t stand there ex

•ISOLDE•“Isolde,” Caleb’s father murmured weakly from the hospital bed. “You came.”I closed the door behind me and sighed as I walked into the room. I honestly didn’t expect Caleb to be there.After what happened between us, the last thing I wanted was to stand in the same room with him pretending everything was fine.I forced a small smile toward Jerald and ignored Caleb. “How are you feeling?” I asked as I moved closer to the bed.If it weren't because we knew each other before I met his shitty son, I wouldn’t have bothered to come to the hospital to see him. “Better than yesterday,” he replied. “The doctors answered that the surgery went well.”“I’m glad.”Jerald tilted his head and looked at me. “You look tired. You had a long day?”“It’s been a rough few days.”Before he could answer, Caleb stepped forward. “Isa—”I ignored him.Jerald looked between us and frowned. “You two fought again?”I laughed and crossed my arms. “That depends on your definition of fighting.”Caleb exha

•ISOLDE•When I came back home, I closed the front door behind me and looked at the engagement ring on my finger.I sighed, hoping I had made the right decision by agreeing to marry Caleb again.He loved me. I knew that.We had been through too much together for me to throw everything away without trying to fix it first.I should have realized earlier that something was wrong when Caleb suddenly started acting differently after Talia became closer to us.Before her, he had never hurt me. He had never cheated and he had never betrayed my trust. Hw took care of me and never made me doubt his love. Talia took advantage of my kindness and used it against me. She inserted herself into our relationship until everything became ruined.Hearing her confession at the hospital changed things.She admitted she seduced Caleb because she was jealous of me.It all finally made sense why she lied online and spread rumors about me causing the fire at The Meridian.Talia had always envied me. She aske
