Chapter 59Maya drove out of the house and headed straight to the hospital. She left the house and did not see Owen that morning, which bothered her a lot. She heaved a sigh as she could not help but Wonder if he actually came home to sleep, or if he left the house so early that she did not notice. She was almost halfway to the hospital when she suddenly realized that she had forgotten her phone at home. She turned back and drove back to the house to pick up her phone. She decided to dial Owen's number, but it was not connecting. Her heart troubled as she walked back to her car and drove to the hospital. She arrived at the hospital in the morning, early as usual, and took a brief moment before going inside as she only thought of Hayden. What am I going to do about this? She wondered as she thought about the date, Hayden had asked her to go with her. She exhaled rapidly with her mouth, taking a slight “o” shape as she finally pushed the door and went inside the building. She did her
Chapter 60“Where the hell are you?” Maya shouted as she barged into the house of Megan without knocking at the door. She yelled, tilting her head in a different direction as anger was very obvious in her face and tone. “Who is there? And why would you just barge into my house without my consent.” Megan replied as she stepped out of her room to the parlor. Her gaze fell on Maya, and she looked a bit surprised to see Maya in her house.“I do not need consent from you to come and warn you,” Maya said and Megan could only chuckle briefly, her transformed rapidly into a frown.“What are talking about?” Megan asked and Maya tilted her head away from her, briefly, bringing it back to talk to her.“Are you trying to pretend or what?” Maya asked in a loud tone, and Megan made a scrunching face as if she were trying to understand what Maya had just told her. “I am not for all these. You know I can arrest you for trespass, right.” Megan said in a loud voice as she slowly tilted her head to lo
Chapter 61As Maya sat in the car next to Hayden, her mind was consumed by a whirlwind of thoughts. The weight of the accusation against Owen hung heavy in the air, and Maya couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. Anger simmered within her, fueled by the injustice of the situation. She couldn't help but wonder why someone lied about something so serious.But Maya knew Owen was innocent, and she was determined to uncover the truth. She has lived with him for a while now and he has never behaved like that towards her, so she was so sure that he was innocent.As the car moved forward, the tension in the air was palpable. Maya's gaze was fixed on the passing scenery, but her thoughts were far away, consumed by the weight of the situation.“Don't worry yourself too much, I am going to get to the bottom of this” Hayden said when he noticed the unsettling expression on Maya's face, he knew she was worried about Owen, he was too but they have to be hopeful in situations like this.

Chapter 62“No, that's all I promise,” Katrina said as tears rolled down her eyes.Hayden's anger burned like a raging fire, consuming him from within. The revelation that Martin was the mastermind behind everything left him seething with a mix of anger and disbelief. How could he stoop so low just to get back at Owen?“That motherfucked will pay!” Hayden said as his fists clenched, he struggled to control the surge of emotions coursing through his veins. The room seemed to shrink as his anger grew, the walls closing in around him. Maya, sensing the intensity of his rage, stepped forward. "Hayden, I understand how furious you must be right now," Maya began, her voice steady and soothing. "But lashing out in anger won't solve anything. We need to think clearly and find a way to expose the truth. With Katrina’s confession, we have all we need to get Owen out of jail.”“Didn't you hear her confession, that man is a monster,” Hayden said breathing heavily, his chest rising and falling wi
Chapter 63Owen's heart raced as he sat in the cold, dimly lit interrogation room, his mind swirling with questions and uncertainty. The weight of the accusations against him had been suffocating, and he had resigned himself to the possibility of a lengthy legal battle.

But as the heavy metal door creaked open, revealing a stern-looking police officer, confusion washed over Owen's face.The officer's words hung in the air, echoing in Owen's ears. "You're free to go," he said, his voice laced with a hint of surprise. Owen's eyes widened, his brows furrowing as he tried to make sense of the sudden turn of events. The room seemed to spin around him, the walls closing in as his mind struggled to process the unexpected news."But... how?" Owen stammered, his voice barely above a whisper.

Chapter 64“I will see you at home,” Maya said to Owen as he hopped into his car and drove off. She decided to stay back with Hayden to help with the paperwork.With a wide grin on her face, Maya turned to Hayden and exclaimed, "Can you believe it? Owen is finally free! We did it!" Her voice was filled with excitement and a sense of accomplishment. “I am so happy and relieved honestly” Hayden replied happily.“This is a call for celebration, Martin is finally behind bars,” Maya said and Hayden's eyes sparkled with pride as he nodded in agreement, his happiness radiating from within.As the excitement of Owen's release filled the air, Hayden couldn't help but feel a surge of courage and hope.

Please say yes this time”Maya's eyes widened in surprise, her cheeks flushing with a mix of emotions. Memories of their previous encounte
Chapter 65Owen stopped kissing Maya, and his eyes lingered on her for a bit, he was a bit sober but looking at her pouting lips he wanted more, he doesn’t want to stop, but he had to, he had to think of something else, "Maya," he said as his hand trailed down her back and cupped her ass. "Hmmm?" she hummed, she was still in a daze from the kiss they just shared. "I want you so bad right now."he said as his lips brushed against her neck. "Oh, I want you too," she said as she reached for his shirt and pulled it off. "Fuck me," she said, her voice was hoarse from the kisses they shared. "I want to make love to you right now," he said as his hands reached for her tits, he was just about to unhook her bra when she pushed him away. "What's wrong?" he asked, his eyes were still filled with lust. "I don’t know, I’m just..” Owen kissed her to make her stop talking, she wrapped her hands around him and kissed him back "Let’s do this," she said as she pushed him on the bed and climbed on top
Chapter 66Maya gasped as she realized what had just happened between her and Owen. It was as if her eyes were clear now, and she knew she kissed Owen. She took a few steps backward, staring at Owen. She was caught with the sofa, and she fell on it. She heaved a sigh as she sat on the sofa, holding onto her head with her hands as she went deep in thought about what she had just done. She took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing heart as it pounded hard in her chest as if it were about to explode.Owen could only watch her as she stepped backward, falling on the couch. He contemplated whether to meet her and talk to her or not. He heaved a sigh as he finally decided to go and talk to her about it.“Maya!” He called out softly as he sat slowly beside her, but she heaved a sigh, raising her head to gesture to Owen that she was not interested in his talk. Owen leaned forward again, this time, bringing his mouth closer to her ears to whisper, but she stood up immediately and went insi
