The driver obeyed Shawn's command immediately; he slowed down the car. Shawn pretended to lean toward Roger. She opened the door and pushed Roger out of the car. Then she told the driver to jump out of the car that's now driving slowly."Jump out of the car now! It looks like someone planted a bomb in this car," she said. "As I said earlier, if you don't believe me, then you're free to stay inside." Shawn jumped out of the car. The driver refused to jump out and decided to stop the car. As soon as he stopped, the car exploded.Roger fell into the grass along the side of the road. His injuries weren't that severe. Immediately after the car exploded, Roger looked at himself and then at the car. If not for Shawn, he would have died now.Roger walked toward Shawn, who had bruises all over her body."Are you okay?" Shawn asked Roger. She was already married to him, and she couldn't change that even if she wanted to." em" That was all,Roger replied nodding his head, as he made a call. He w

At the Michaels residence, Ruby could no longer contain her anger. The moment she entered her room, she began unleashing it on everything in sight.*How did I spill that stuff out of anger? What if Brian starts suspecting me? I need to do something fast before he catches on,* Ruby thought.*Mabel, Mabel... after the breakup, why are your family members still close to Brian? Haven't you suffered enough because of him? Until I kill one of you, you won’t leave Brian for me,* Ruby seethed inwardly.Ruby glanced at the pictures of Brian that she had secretly taken. *I won’t stop until I make sure you are mine and mine alone. If I have to kill, I will,* she vowed.*I thought I had finally won you over, Brian. It turns out I was just delusional. I hate you, Mabel. I hate you!* Ruby shouted, tears streaming down her face.Just then, her phone rang. Ruby locked her door before answering.“Hello, boss. It’s month-end payment, and that woman is so stubborn. We don’t know what to do with her,” a

After leaving the school premises, Ruby drove straight to the hospital where Mabel was admitted, determined to end her life. She was confident that no one was watching over Mabel, and this was her chance to eliminate her rival. Once Mabel was gone, she planned to send Chloe far away from Brian. Nothing would stand in her way—not even her own family.Ruby walked directly to Mabel’s ward. As she entered, her suspicions were confirmed; Mabel was indeed alone. This was the perfect time for Ruby to act.Noticing that Mabel was not on oxygen and appeared to be in a deep sleep, Ruby decided to use the pillow beside Mabel to strangle her. But as soon as she touched the pillow, Mabel’s hand moved, causing Ruby to drop it.Ruby glanced at Mabel, who still showed no signs of waking up. Just as she contemplated grabbing the pillow again, the nurse in charge of Mabel entered the ward.Ruby, who despised nurses, knew that the nurse wouldn’t suspect her. She chose to remain silent and left the ward

Krayon stood frozen, staring at the girl Brian had just introduced as Chloe. Her expression was sharp and unwelcoming. She looked at him like he was something unpleasant stuck to her shoe, her annoyance plain as day. It wasn’t just her glare that unsettled him—it was the way his stomach churned under her scrutiny. Only Chloe’s face had this strange way of making him feel nauseous, like a bad memory resurfacing.His gaze flickered to hers, and in that moment, the memory hit him like a slap. School. He remembered how she had beaten him up, leaving him humiliated and bruised. It all made sense now. Mabel—sweet, calm Mabel—could never have hurt him like that. No, it wasn’t her. It had been Chloe all along."If you're Mabel’s sister, then where is Mabel?" Krayon’s voice broke the tense silence as his eyes darted between Chloe and Brian. He was searching for some kind of explanation, some clue, but neither of them said a word. Their silence felt deliberate, a wall he couldn’t break through.

The red droplets falling from Aaron's bloodied fist matched the intensity of his hatred. "Brian, you can take everything else, but I won't let you have her," he snarled at the empty room, his words echoing off the pristine walls of the family estate. But fate, as it often does, had already set its wheels in motion long before this moment of desperation.Earlier that afternoon, the air had been thick with tension in the same room where Aisha sat, her perfectly manicured nails drumming against the mahogany armrest as she voiced her frustrations. "Ever since the party, I haven't heard from Mabel again. Her line isn't going through." She cast a calculating glance between Aunt Shawn and Aaron, her eyes betraying the machinations behind them. "I hope she hasn't changed her mind. I really need her to cause division between her and Ruby."Aaron, who had been standing by the window, turned to face her. The sunlight streaming through the glass caught the sharp angles of his face as he delivered
