Hazel stood tall, her voice filled with determination as she faced her mother, Mrs William. "Mom, I can't believe you had a hand in pushing Amelia out of Dub's life," she said, her tone laced with frustration. "If she was still the Executive Assistant of Kelfort Companies Inc., things wouldn't have deteriorated to this level."Mrs William shifted uncomfortably in her seat, taken aback by her daughter's boldness. She had expected Hazel to support her decision, to understand the gravity of the situation. But Hazel's words struck a chord within her, stirring a mix of guilt and defensiveness."Hazel, it's not about Amelia," Mrs William replied, her voice tinged with defensiveness. "There is nothing wrong with Dub finding love again. It's just unfortunate that he ended up with Linda, who instead of molding him, destroyed him."Hazel's eyes widened, a mixture of disbelief and anger flashing across her face. "But Mom, you can't deny that Linda played a significant role in the decline of the

Mrs William's eyes widened with disbelief as Linda confirmed her worst fear. She had indeed sold the property that Dub had given her. The rage within Mrs William reached its peak, and her anger burst forth like a raging storm."How could you?!" Mrs William shouted, her voice echoing through the room. "That property was meant to secure a future for Dub and his family, to preserve our legacy! And you sold it? How dare you!"Linda's face flushed with anger, her eyes narrowed as she retorted, "Oh please, Mrs William! Spare me your self-righteousness! You have no right to judge me. Look at the mess you've allowed Dub to become! You were supposed to protect him, to guide him, but instead, you let him fall into ruin!"Mrs William's fury intensified at Linda's audacity to speak back to her. "Did you just say me, or you?! You ungrateful idiot, I may have made mistakes, but what you have done is unforgivable!" she shot back, her voice filled with venom."You took advantage of Dub's vulnerabilit

He gently expressed his desire for them to return to Parker City, the place they had once called home.He knew it wouldn't be an easy decision for Vera, considering the painful memories associated with the city, but he wanted to build a new life for their family."Vera, I understand that Parker City holds difficult memories for you," Donald began, his voice filled with empathy."But it's also where we met and where our love story began.

Rodney strolled through the bustling aisles of the city mall, his mind preoccupied with the mundane task of picking up a few items for himself.Lost in his thoughts, he barely noticed the familiar figure that suddenly appeared before him. It took a moment for his brain to register who it was, and when it did, his heart skipped a beat."Vera?" Rodney exclaimed, his eyes widening in disbelief. "Is that really you?"Vera's heart sank as she turned to face Rodney. The sight of him brought back a rush of memories and emotions that she had tried so hard to suppress.
