On a cold winter night, Jake had returned from the little company where he worked. Little drops of sweat broke out on his forehead as he stepped into the house panting hard from exaggeration.“Honey," he called, but there was dead silence in the sitting room. On his left hand was a beautiful red flower he had gotten on his way home. Today marks his 3rd marriage anniversary, and he has returned late already. As he walked towards the sofa, a beautiful young lady walked out from the corner. It was Georgina, his beloved wife. She was the epitome of beauty. Her ebony hair cascaded behind her back like a waterfall of silk. She was tall and endowed with wonderful features. Her curves were carved out of her tight white dress, exposing her unimaginable beauty. Her striking blue eyes pierced deep into his eyes, and an ugly frown spread across her features. “Hey baby, I'm back," Jake said with a childish grin on his face. Staring at him, she shot daggers from her eyes, her gaze filled with

A lady in her early 20s walked in. She was wearing a green robe.“Oh my goodness! Mr. Jake, you're awake. I'm gonna call the doctor immediately," she announced happily, but Jake stopped her before she could move out.“Hold on. Where am I? How did I get here?" He asked, and she furrowed her brow.“You're in the hospital, sir. You don't remember anything? You were brought in half-dead. You've been in a coma ever since, but your wounds are healed.” Jake raised his brow and cast a confusing gaze around the room."I remember that too well, but… hold on, how long have I been in a coma?" He asked with curiosity. "3 months sir,” the nurse responded, and Jake jumped off the bed."What?" He exclaimed.“I've been in a coma for 3 whole months? What the fuck!

It had been two weeks since Jake took over his father's businesses, and he had won the hearts of many already. Earlier today, he had left for Burutan to complete his divorce process in court. Outside the courtroom, Jake stood next to a car with a sunglass in his eyes when he saw Maron walking towards him. “Not again," he muttered and turned to walk away, but he bumped into Georgina.“Hey, watch your steps," he yelled. “What is it? You have the divorce, right? What else do you want? Shouldn't you be planning on your new marriage with that asshole behind me?" Georgina swallowed hard and sucked her lower lips. “Listen Jake. I just want to know why you beat up my Mom before leaving the house that day. That wasn't cool, and my Mom has refused to let that slide.”Jake raised his brow. “Seriously?” He asked in surprise. “First of all, I didn't beat your Mom.

At exactly 8:30 pm, Rebecca was at home worried about Georgina's whereabouts. She hadn't returned from work, and she wasn't answering her phone. It was unusual, and she began to wonder if something had gone wrong. She tried Maron's phone several times, but he wasn't answering either. She began to panic. She quickly dressed herself to report a missing person to the police. As she came to the sitting room, the entrance door flung open, and Georgina staggered into the house. Her face paled, and her body seemed to curl in on itself, a physical manifestation of the emotional pain she was going through.“Hi, Mom,” she greeted, her voice barely above a whisper.
