Chapter 41
“I deeply apologize, sir. Please find it in your heart to forgive me,” a lady, elegantly dressed in a muted grey suit, pleaded with genuine remorse. Her eyes brimmed with tears, revealing the depth of her regret. The weight of her fear was so overwhelming that it drained the color from her face, leaving it as pale as a ghost’s.Tyler’s gaze shifted downward, his eyes fixating on the dampness that marred his once-pristine suit. Confusion etched across his features as he shifted his attention to the distressed woman before him. A furrow formed on his forehead, and his eyes narrowed as if he had just witnessed an apparition materialize before him.“Clara? What brings you here?” Tyler’s voice held a note of bewilderment, his eyes narrowing further as he focused his scrutiny on Clara. Her expression mirrored the confusion in his voice, and she glanced beside her as though expecting to find the person Tyler was referring to. Meanwhile, Andrea observed the unfolding drama in silence, her pre

Chapter 44
Tyler stood frozen in the doorway, his gaze locked onto the image displayed on his phone screen. The photograph depicted his mother, captured in an unguarded moment within the confines of their home. The intrusion of privacy was palpable, with the image taken surreptitiously, without her awareness. Yet, it wasn’t just the picture that held Tyler’s attention; it was the accompanying text below it that seized his focus, intensifying his unease.The words, “You know what to do!” seemed innocuous at first glance, but as Tyler absorbed their implications, a wave of demoralization washed over him. The weight of the message bore down on him, a clear indication that he was being coerced into some sort of action. His heart pounded, and a growing sense of dread knotted his stomach. He was certain, beyond a shadow of a doubt, who the sender was.As anxiety coursed through his veins, beads of sweat formed on Tyler’s brow, evidence of the internal struggle he was battling.

Chapter 45
Tyler anxiously awaited his mother’s response after engaging in a reciprocative conversation with her. However, instead of a reply, all that followed was an eerie silence, accompanied by the subtle sound of her fingers tapping on the armrest of the nearby armchair.“Mom,” Tyler called out once again, his voice tinged with a hopeful anticipation that was mirrored in his eyes.Meanwhile, Jane, positioned on the periphery, observed the unfolding scene in a silent and contemplative manner. She seemed to be a silent spectator to the emotional dynamics playing out before her.As Tyler stood there, the lump in his throat growing with every passing second, he nervously swallowed, trying to dislodge the tension that had settled there. The pregnant pause hung heavily in the air as he remained suspended between his expectation of a response and the void of his mother’s silence.Yet, that response he so eagerly anticipated didn’t materialize.

Chapter 46
“What’s the matter?” Tyler’s voice carried a deliberate slowness, his curiosity piqued. Uncertainty shrouded him, unsure of what to expect from Jane. His brows furrowed, his gaze steady as it settled upon Jane, who appeared somewhat intimidated by the gravity of Tyler’s tone and his very presence. She glanced up at him, her fingers nervously bringing her right hand to her ear before extending it out toward Tyler, a note clutched within her trembling palm.“This,” her voice wavered slightly as she uttered the word, her hand quivering as she opened her palm to reveal its contents. Within it lay a small piece of paper. Tyler’s hand moved slowly and deliberately, gently settling on the paper that rested atop Jane’s hand, before he lifted it, cradling the note between his fingers.As his eyes captured the contents of the note, a realization dawned upon Tyler – it was an image of his mother. The image he carried with him always, a cherished memento. His forehead furrowed instantly, his expr

Chapter 47
Tyler abruptly brought the car to a halt, his eyes flickering closed and then open again. He drew in a deep breath, releasing the tension that had built up. A sense of unease washed over him as he battled with his own mind, a common occurrence throughout the day. He twisted around to look behind him, expecting to see another vehicle trailing him, but there was nothing there, just an empty stretch of road."Oh, for heaven's sake! Not again!” Tyler muttered under his breath, frustration bubbling to the surface. He pounded his hand against the steering wheel, his anger palpable. Resting his forehead on the wheel, he closed his eyes momentarily, collecting his thoughts. Eventually, he parked the car and climbed out, slamming the door shut with an exasperated sigh. Leaning against the vehicle, he placed his hands on the roof and pressed his forehead against it, attempting to steady himself.Amidst his confusion, Tyler pondered the bizarre series of hallucinations that had plagued him all d

As he stood before the mirror, his gaze locked onto his reflection, he felt the remnants of the day's chaos echoing within him. The events of the day had left a tempest of thoughts swirling through his mind.Seeking solace, he sank into the soothing embrace of the bathtub, letting the warm water envelop him.
