Susan pulled her car into the garage, a sense of relief washing over her after spending the last five hours at her friend's place. She had been waiting for her father to leave before returning home. Exiting the car, she walked to the rear to retrieve her luggage, determined to settle back into her routine. As she stepped into the house, she unexpectedly came face-to-face with her mother standing in front of the television. The instant their eyes met, her mother's voice exploded with anger. "What the hell are you doing here? Why did you leave your husband's house?" she yelled, the intensity of her words echoing through the air.Susan froze, startled by her mother's harsh tone. She knew her mother would be angry, but she hadn't expected such a strong reaction."I-I needed a break," Susan stammered. "I just...I need some time to think.""Think?" her mother scoffed. "You had no right to leave your husband like that! You made a vow, and now you're breaking it.""I know, Mom," Susan said
""No, mother, I won't do that," she said firmly, her voice laced with determination and defiance. "I promised to stay away from him to keep him happy, and I won't listen to anything you say. I am done with this." With a swift motion, she pulled her hand out of her mother's grasp and rushed towards the stairs, her emotions swirling within her. As the weight of her decision settled in, her mother's response hung heavy in the air. "You have to leave this house then, I disown you," her mother pronounced, the words carrying a finality that sent shockwaves through the room. Even her mother seemed taken aback by her own declaration, attempting to comprehend the gravity of what she had just said. However, as she turned to look back, her feet betrayed her, causing her to lose her footing and tumble down the stairs. In that moment, her mother's shock turned to panic, and she rushed to her daughter's side with sincere concern etched on her face. "I am sorry, my daughter," her mother's voice
"I appreciate you coming forward with the details," she said, displaying her professionalism. "May I ask who is this Person who is causing you trouble?" "I'd rather not disclose too many specifics," I replied, remaining tight-lipped. "For the time being, I need you to perform a background check and monitor their communications for any suspicious activity." "That's perfectly understandable," she assured me, remaining composed. "I'll perform the background check and inform you of the results. Is there a specific time frame that you need the information by?""I need it as soon as possible" I replied her."I understand that this is a sensitive matter, and I will strive to complete the background check as quickly as possible," she assured me. "However, I can't guarantee that I'll have the results within a specific time frame. The more information you can provide, the faster I can complete the task." "I'll send you the details I have on this person as soon as possible," I responded, appr
"It's nothing, I was just being concerned," I lied, feeling my heart race as I pressed my lips together, attempting to hide the unease. Her eyes bore into mine, searching for any signs of deception. The tension in the air grew heavier, making it difficult to move or speak. Desperately, I grasped for something, anything, to diffuse the sudden strain between us. In a feeble attempt to break the tension, I let out a scoff, hoping it would dispel the awkwardness. As if on cue, I caught sight of Clinton approaching, a sudden wave of relief washing over me. Taking a deep breath, I gathered what little composure I had left. "Hi Clinton," I greeted him, my voice managing to remain steady as we exchanged pleasantries. "I am good," he replied, sitting on the chair beside Nathalie. His eyes were bright with excitement as he spoke. "So what would you like to take?" he asked cheerfully, a playful tone in his voice. I couldn't help but chuckle at his enthusiastic demeanor. "I wondered when the
"What exactly has happened?" Mike asked, looking at me for further information. "Mr Smith has changed location, and we have managed to find out his current address. We need to reach there before he did something bad again. It's a race against time," I responded, as we raced through the streets. "What do you think is Mr Smith motivation?" Mike asked, his eyes glazed with worry. "I'm afraid we won't know until we meet him.Standing outside the place Alicia had mentioned, I anxiously awaited the arrival of the police. The building loomed before me, shrouded in an air of uncertainty. Its imposing facade reflected the gravity of the situation, reminding me of the importance of not entering alone. I couldn't help but wonder what Mr. Smith had in store, his intentions remained a mystery. All I knew for certain was that today was the day he would be apprehended. He couldn't elude justice any longer or tamper with the progress I had made. Mr. Smith belonged behind bars - it was where he t
As I approached, I could see that Mr. Smith was struggling to break free, but the detective's grip was firm. I handed him the handcuffs, and he quickly put them on Mr. Smith. "You have the right to remain silent," the detective said, reading Mr. Smith his Miranda rights. Mr. Smith just stared at the ground, refusing to speak. The detective turned to his boy. "Can you get me a statement from Mr Stephen?" He nodded, his eyes narrowing as he moved closer to me. His expression held a mixture of determination and caution, as if he was sizing me up, trying to gauge my intentions. "Can you follow us to the station?" his voice was steady, but there was an underlying sense of urgency in his tone. "Sure, I'll join you guys later," I replied, my own voice tinged with a hint of skepticism. As Mr. Smith turned back, a sudden burst of laughter erupted from him, causing the place to fill with the sound of his derisive amusement. "Don't think you have won," he said through a confident smirk,
"You know, I had requested a moment with both you and your husband as there was something I had noticed about her. It's important that you are extremely cautious around her. She has experienced some brain damage, so it's crucial to be mindful of the things you say in her presence. It's best not to push her to remember certain things, as she has forgotten quite a bit. However, for now, she seems to be doing alright, apart from the tragic loss of her baby and womb. The extent of the brain damage may not be apparent at this moment, but you might discover it later," the doctor explained. Overwhelmed with sympathy, I blurted out, Damn! She lost her baby, I feel so sorry for her. Even though the baby wasn't mine, I still can't help but feel a deep sense of sadness for her." Curiosity overcoming me, I asked. "Is she awake? "Yes, she is currently in her ward," Mrs. Clinton responded, and I silently acknowledged her response with a nod.I turned to the doctor, eager for more information. "
A sly smirk formed on my lips, conveying the satisfaction of knowing that he had underestimated my true capabilities. It was clear that he still saw me as the old Stephen, unaware of the power I now held. A mocking laughter danced across my face, implying a sense of superiority. "Are you curious to know?" I asked, my voice betraying a hint of vulnerability, intentionally toying with him. "I guess you shouldn't worry, Mr. Clinton," I continued, my tone cool and composed. "We are in a hospital after all. Let's maintain our demeanor and not behave like rascals." I walked back to Susan's bedside, where she lay, and took her hands delicately in mine. Rubbing them gently in an attempt to comfort her, their warmth spreading to my own hands."I know you must be feeling incredibly sad about the loss of your baby," I said gently, offering my sincere condolences. "But please try not to worry. Everything is going to be alright. I think I should take my leave for now, but I will check on you la
