"You wouldn't. Deep down, you'd miss me if I was arrested." The veins on Charles' temple pulsed, and he positioned himself between us. "Lucas, don't think I won't hit you just because you're my brother! I've got limits too." Lucas completely ignored him. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a ring. "I know you threw the old one away because Emily wore it. So, I had a new one made just for you!" "What about Emily? Where is she?" "She's out of the picture for good. I won't let her bother you ever again," he said coldly, as if he was talking about a stranger.

I flipped through the journal casually. The first entry was dated the day I flew out of the country. [Eliza is gone. She doesn't want me anymore. [I tore the apartment apart looking for something, anything, but I couldn't even find a single strand of her hair. She cut me off so cleanly, so ruthlessly, it's like she never even loved me at all.] The handwriting was a chaotic, ragged scrawl. The pages were warped and buckled from where old tears had dried into the paper. I turned the page without feeling a single pang of sympathy.

For ten years, I stood beside Adrian Shaw while he clawed his way up from nothing to a nine-figure fortune. In all that time, he never once took me anywhere that cost more than twenty dollars a head. On the eve of our tenth anniversary, I sent him a link to the steakhouse I'd been saving for years. His expression darkened. "Just because we have money now doesn't mean we can forget how hard life can get. Thrift is a virtue, Nora. Don't lose it." I thought he had a point, so I nodded and agreed to cancel the reservation. Then, on the day I went to the restaurant to cancel it, I saw Adrian across the dining room, having dinner with a girl. He cut her steak for her, then reached over and ge

Tristan says excitedly, grabbing the remote from the table and cranking up the volume. ♪♪ Crashing, hit a wall. Right now, I need a miracle. ♪♪ Tristan sings along to the lyrics to the song, “Don't Let Me Down" as he bounces on his heels, moving in a flash to grab Jason's hands. He carefully pulls the Delta to his feet and, holding onto his hands, gently guides them one at a time, forcing his best friend to twist his hips and move his body to the rhythm of the beat. Jason smiles, moving his body, being careful not to pull on his stitches, which are thankfully scheduled to be removed tomorrow.

The events of the previous day loomed large in my mind, fueling my determination to stay vigilant and protect my family at all costs. But as I entered the kitchen to prepare breakfast, a sinking feeling settled in the pit of my stomach. Something was amiss. The familiar scent of coffee and pancakes was absent, replaced by an eerie silence that seemed to echo through the empty room. With a sinking heart, I rushed to the living room, my worst fears confirmed as I took in the scene before me. The birthday decorations lay in disarray, the once festive atmosphere now tinged with an air of desolation. Tears welled in my eyes as I surveyed the room, the realization hitting me like a ton of bricks.

"I went upstairs to my room to take a shower, after I was done showering, I rapped my towel around my waist and went to my closet. I was looking for a cloth to wear when I eyes caught a black box. That black box contained something only I know of, no one else knows about the box. I just removed my eyes from the box and continued looking for what to wear until I found something. When I was done dressing, I went back downstairs to meet Damien. Funny how he already ordered take out. "Are you okay? You are spacing out and you have not yet touched your food" Damien said bringing me back to the present. "I am fine, I just have a lot on my head, that is all" I said. "I know how to make you clear yo
