You are one of the few people I treasure…Kelly…I-I think it’s time for us to divorce.”<br /> “P-Pierce…” I felt my heart clench.<br /> He smiled. “I know you don’t have feelings for me either. You just married me because of my grandparents. You just did this because you love them. Now it’s time for our real happiness, Kelly.”<br /> I shook my head, “W-What are you talking about, Pierce?”<br /> “Lexi is back, Kelly. My first love is back.”<br /> ————————<br /> Kelly's POV<br /> Was it a blessing to marry your best friend?<br /> I was not very sure what Pierce thought but marrying him was a dream come true for me. And now what was more exciting, we were going to welcome our first child.<br /> I closed my eyes recalling the first day we met. His bright smile in the sunlight was so dazzling, he was a Prince. Long before we became best friends, I fell in love with him at first sight. But it was only an unrequited love, I knew it well.<br /> I slid down the car window to get some fresh air but accidentally caught a glimpse of our old high school. That bitter feeling filled my chest once again. Pierce is my first love but I'm not his.<br /> In high school, I was only a boring nerd in other's eyes while Pierce Anderson was the shining Quarterback. Everyone was surprised that we could be friends. Though enmity rose, I enjoyed being around him. I slowly realized that I didn't want just to be his friend.<br /> However, right when I was about to confess my feelings to him, another girl came into his life.<br /> I shook my head trying to get rid of those sad old memories. I gripped the cold wedding ring on my finger, telling myself the past was past. Pierce said they were over and I was his wife now. I was his wife who was carrying his baby now.<br /> I wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes and opened the door to our house. My heart calmed down as I breathed in the scent of home. Our home. It wasn't as luxurious as his family's villa but cozy. Pierce and I decorated it together with our own hands. We enjoyed it. Yes, I must have been overthinking. That woman had been out of our lives for a long time and my marriage with Pierce was as beautiful as a fairy tale for the past three years.<br /> I glanced at the clock on the wall. At this point, Pierce should have gotten off the plane. He was over a month of traveling for the sake of our family’s business. Pierce was the President of ADE, the leading fashion magazine company all over Asia, and I was actually the Vice President of the company. We were not only life partners but also good partners at work.<br /> I really missed him. I dialed his number immediately. I really wanted to hear his voice now, to know when he would arrive home. I would prepare a good meal for him and he would prize me with a sweet peck. And then we might have passionate intercourse like what he gave me the night before his business trip. Oops, I almost forgot I was pregnant now. I needed to tell him this first and then we could do something else instead.<br /> I was happily envisioning our lovely reunion and my heart dropped when a woman's voice came over the line.<br /> [Hello?]<br /> I snapped the phone as just one word came out. My phone fell to the floor and my body started shaking uncontrollably. NO! It couldn't be her! It couldn't be Lexi! She was already out of our life! I must have misheard.<br /> I rushed to the fridge in an attempt to calm myself with the aid of some drinks. But the moment I touched the drinks bottle, I was reminded of the doctor's words and my baby. I needed to be cautious for my baby's sake. I turned to get a box of milk and walked toward the sofa.<br /> I didn't know what made me recognize that as Lexi's voice at that moment. I meant Lexi and I were never close. Lexi Gilbert was a typical blonde beauty that men would go crazy for. She was the popular cheerleader in high school while Pierce was the star quarterback. Better match than he and a nerd like me, right? It wasn't surprising that he had fallen for her.<br /> My pride couldn't stand watching the man I loved go crazy for another woman. So I had once tried to stay away from them silently but Pierce refused to quit from my life. Every time I drowned myself in a sea of books and studies to forget them, Pierce would appear at my doorway asking me out. I couldn't say no to his charming smile; I couldn't say no when he claimed it was his duty as my best friend to take me to enjoy the real world.<br /> To not ruin our friendship, I could only hide my broken heart, silently playing the role of his best friend by his side and watching his happy face for another girl. I finally got up the courage to study abroad as I learned that Pierce was planning to propose to Lexi. However, I never expected Grams would call to beg me back.<br /> I returned in a hurry only to see a lifeless Pierce. His heart was harmed badly, by Lexi. My beloved sunshine boy was nowhere to be seen, and my heart was bleeding. I started to hate Lexi from that moment. I gave up my cherished man to her, and how dared she harm him so badly! That witch!<br /> Pierce didn't tell anyone what happened except he was over with Lexi. Grams arranged our marriage. I didn't understand why he agreed until the day I heard him say that marrying anyone but Lexi would be the same for him.<br /> It was so hurt but I still walked into this marriage without a second thought. My cherished boy was broken and I wanted to fix him, not caring if I would ruin myself in the process.<br /> I fell asleep at home feeling so insecure and worried.It was already morning when I opened my eyes again and Pierce was beside me, putting a tray of food on the bedside table.<br /> “Hey!” I greeted and smiled when I realized what he’d done. He prepared breakfast for me. In bed. The sweetest.<br /> He smiled and sat on the bed. “Good morning. I have something to tell you.”<br /> I felt my heart race. I thought about our baby in my womb. He’s got something to tell. I have something to tell him too.<br /> “W-What is it?” I asked as I felt my voice tremble.<br /> He took a deep sigh. “You know you’re important to me, right?”<br /> I slowly nodded with parted lips. I couldn’t answer. I’m scared of what he’s about to say. I have a bad feeling about this.<br /> “You were my best friend before we got married. You are one of the few people I treasure…”<br /> I hid my balled fists under the sheet. I don’t know why he’s telling me all this but I felt tears pooling in the corner of my eyes already.<br /> “Kelly…” he paused and squeezed his eyes closed before he looked at me again in the eyes. “I-I think it’s time for us to divorce.”<br /> “P-Pierce…” I felt my heart clench.<br /> He smiled. “I know you don’t have feelings for me either. You just married me because of my grandparents. You just did this because you love them. Now it’s time for our real happiness, Kelly.”<br /> I shook my head, “W-What are you talking about, Pierce?”<br /> “Lexi is back, Kelly. My first love is back.”<br /> Kelly’s POV<br /> I got off the bed and tried to leave but Pierce grabbed my hand. I immediately wiped the tears that rolled down my cheeks before he could see them. He stood in front of me and looked at my face as I tried so hard to look down and avoid his eyes.<br /> I felt my heart breaking into pieces. I thought… I thought I could make him fall in love with me within those three years together. I thought his feelings would level up and would see me as a woman rather than just a best friend. I was stupid for hoping and dreaming so high.<br /> I failed. No matter how hard I tried, his heart belonged only to his first love Lexi.<br /> He looked at me worriedly. “You are my best friend. I don’t wanna lose you, Kels. You’re one of my few people…”<br /> “I know,” I said out of frustration. He looked shocked, so I calmed myself down. “I-I know. You don’t have to worry. I’m just stressed about work. It’s not about our divorce.”<br /> His lips parted and he slowly nodded as if he was able to breathe properly. He walked towards me and I froze when he gently pecked my forehead…<br /> “Thank you, Kelly," he whispered. My heart clenched. It had been three years but I was still such a coward. Why couldn't you just tell him that you love him, Kelly? He's your husband and you're carrying his baby! Tell him and he might change his mind!<br /> I swallowed hard and was about to tell him but his phone rang. I didn't miss the caller ID. Again, it was Lexi.<br /> " I gotta go." He scratched his head in apology and I didn't miss the upturned corners of his mouth. "I called Luke and he’s waiting outside. Eat before you go, okay?”<br /> With that, he left our room. The tears I had managed to suppress burst out again. Why would I think I could have a chance? He made his choice already the moment he asked for the divorce, didn't he?<br /> Whenever it came to Lexi, I was always the one he would abandon.<br /> --<br /> I looked outside the window. I sucked my breath and shook my head, “Nothing.”<br /> When I got home, I immediately cleaned myself up. I took a shower and started cooking dinner for myself. I bet Pierce is already eating with his btch of a mistress. It’s making me bitter.<br /> “KELLY!”<br /> I was just about to start eating when I heard Pierce’s angry voice. I lifted my face and looked at him. He rushed to me with an angry face and reddened neck.<br /> “What did you do?”<br /> My forehead creased. “I cooked.”<br /> He pulled his hair and grabbed my shoulders. “You told my father about Lexi! Why did you do that?”<br /> “You recklessly go out with your mistress. Now you’re putting the blame on me? News indeed has wings. Fascinating isn’t it?”<br /> “Don’t go sarcastic on me, Kelly! You know what I truly feel about her. Why are you doing this to me? All I ask is your understanding, Kels! You don’t have to do this!”<br /> I pushed him away angrily. “Why are you taking it out on me? Are you sure that it was me?”<br /> “No one will do this except for you, Kelly! Now I know why something was off. You’re angry with me and now you’re dragging our family into this!”<br /> I laughed sarcastically and pushed the chair away. It fell on the tiled floor, creating a loud thud but I don’t care. I looked him in the eye as I fought the rage in it. He’s acting like this because of his mistress. He’s unbelievable.<br /> “If dumb people could swim, you would be a fish.”<br /> “Don’t turn your back on me—”<br /> “Oh, I will!” I growled angrily as I glared at him. “I would turn my back on you whenever I want, Pierce but you know what? I can’t. I want to but I can’t! Do you understand that? I badly want to leave you now because you’re treating me like trash. You said I’m important to you. You said I’m one of the people you treasure, but this? Is this how you treat your treasure?”<br /> His lips parted as he stared into my eyes. I shook my head with trembling lips.<br /> “You know what? If I were to get rid of her, I would go straight to her and smash her face with a freaking silver baseball bat than play like a stupid housewife. You’re barking at the wrong tree, Pierce.”<br /> I looked at him sharply. “Why do you care?”<br /> “I care because you’re my wife, Kelly!”<br /> A sarcastic laugh came out of my mouth because of what he said. I looked at him with rage. “We’re divorcing anyway.”<br /> “Kelly, you can’t just run away like this. We have to talk about the problem.”<br /> “I don’t have a problem, Pierce. It was you who had a problem and you created it, just to remind you.”<br /> He grabbed my wrists and kept me in place when I tried to leave. His jaws were clenching as his eyes bore at me angrily. “My father is angry, Kelly. He’s accusing me of cheating on you.”<br /> I tilted my head, “Are you not?”<br /> His forehead creased. “I am not an beast, Kelly. Did you see me pecking her or drilling her? I still have my sanity with me. I won’t go intimate with her as long as you’re carrying my name—”<br /> “Frankly speaking, I’m not carrying your name, Pierce,” I cut him off. He was taken aback because of what I said. “No one even knows that we’re married.”<br /> “Kelly!”<br /> “Don’t worry. I’ll talk to your family about this. I will tell them that I’m no longer happy with you and I want a divorce.”<br /> He swallowed hard and stared into my eyes. “Y-You’ll do that for me?”<br /> I laughed without humor. “I’ll do that for myself.”<br /> --<br /> He sighed and put the tray on the bedside table before he looked at me again. “Mom sent me a message. She’s inviting us to dinner tomorrow night. I hope you can come with me.”<br /> “Obviously, it’s about us. They would be suspicious if I didn’t come. It’s also time I should tell them about our divorce.”<br /> He sat on the bed and looked at my face. He did everything so he could catch my eyes. He even used his fingers to lift my chin so our eyes would meet. Even when he’s hurting me, a simple touch, a simple care, a simple stare from him makes me tremble and weak. One soothing word from him and my wound is healing.<br /> “I’m sorry, Kels… Please forgive me. I shouldn’t have agreed to marry you in the first place. I know I’ll just hurt you. I’m sorry…”<br /> I hid my balled fists behind me. “You regret marrying me?”<br /> He shook his head, “I don’t regret marrying you. I’ve been very happy during those three years, Kels. What I regret is I put you in a situation where you’d be the one who’ll get hurt. You are my best friend, I swore to protect you but I was actually the one hurting you.”<br /> I looked away. Good to know that he knows his responsibility. What’s shameful is he doesn’t know what he did to me. He didn’t even realize I had feelings for him. He thought I just saw him as my best friend.<br /> *<br /> Everyone at the long dining table is silent. I’m sitting beside Pierce. At the center of the dining table was Pierce’s father. In front of Pierce was his mother and Phoebe, Pierce’s younger sister, was absent from the family dinner today for her school training.<br /> “We should eat first,” Mrs. Anderson cleared her throat and smiled at me.<br /> I gave her the sweetest of my smile. She’s been the perfect mother-in-law. I respect her and will always respect her even after all of these. She’s my dad’s best friend, actually.<br /> We started eating in silence. I looked at Pierce when he started putting food on my plate. If I don’t know him, I would think he’s acting but I know him well. He’s naturally caring. He’s naturally sweet.<br /> I feel like salivating when I see the food I used to hate before. I badly wanted to eat it but I knew Pierce’s parents would notice it and would think it was strange, so I restrained myself.<br /> “I didn’t know you’re a dirty dog, Pierce.” We were in the middle of dinner when Mr. Anderson spoke with a hint of disgust and anger. He lifted his face and glared at Pierce. “Do you want your grandmother to die early? If she heard about your stupidity, she might die.”<br /> “Honey…” Mrs. Anderson caressed her husband’s arm.<br /> I swallowed hard as I saw Pierce’s balled fists under the table. I know he's been afraid of his father ever since he was a kid. Mr. Anderson is a perfectionist. He’s very strict and he dislikes mess.<br /> “Where did your balls go, Pierce? You’re already married and yet you’re seen somewhere with a slt?”<br /> Pierce was about to say something out of anger when I lifted my arm, stopping them. He’s hurting me but I can’t bear to see him hurting. This is stupidity, but I know my heart will always do everything to protect him, not just because he’s my husband but because we’re best friends before he married me.<br /> “He’s not cheating, dad.”<br /> “Don’t defend him, Kelly!” Mr. Anderson strictly warned me but I shook my head.<br /> “I want a divorce, dad.”<br /> “Oh my God!” Mrs. Anderson gasped and sobbed.<br /> “LOOK WHAT YOU’VE DONE, PIERCE!” Mr. Anderson shouted and punched Pierce's face.<br /> “NO!” I shouted and blocked Mr. Anderson when he attempted to attack Pierce again.<br /> “Get out of my way, Kelly. I will teach that punk a lesson.”<br /> “I asked for a divorce even before he was seen with Lexi. And Lexi is the company’s new model. They were working when they got spotted together.”<br /> Mr. Anderson looked at me with a creased forehead. “What did you say?”<br /> “Kelly…” Mrs. Anderson sobbed.<br /> I looked at her and smiled. “I love your son, Mom, but not the way you want me to be. He’s my best friend and I’m sorry that I just agreed to marry him for the sake of grandma. I want to correct my mistakes. I was the one who wanted a divorce so don’t blame it on him.”<br /> Everyone went silent after what I said. I was looking at everyone with courage but it slowly faded when I heard someone behind me speak.<br /> "Did you…mean what you said?" His voice sounds tired and lifeless.<br /> I pressed my lips together and tightened my grip on my pouch.<br /> Heaving a sigh, I slowly turned to face him. He was looking straight into my eyes as if he was actually waiting for me to look at him.<br /> "I mean everything I said, Pierce."<br /> He swallowed hard. There was something in his eyes. Confusion, pain, and thankfulness. I don't know why he's being like this but I'm not doing this just for him. I'm doing this for me too. I want a complete family for my baby, but I'm not gonna settle for the small things he can offer. I love him, but I will love my baby more.<br /> "Kels, you're not drifting apart because of this, right?"<br /> My forehead creased. He expects me to stick to him even after all of these? He's selfish.<br /> "Kels…"<br /> "Pierce, I'm tired. Let's talk tomorrow."<br /> --<br /> My phone rang as soon as I stepped out of the bathroom. The family lawyer of the Anderson family is the one calling. I immediately answered the call… "Hello, attorney."<br /> [Mrs. Anderson, I'm on my way to your house now. I have the document with me.]<br /> I nodded as I stared at my own reflection in the mirror. "Thank you, attorney. We'll be waiting."<br /> When I went downstairs, Pierce was already preparing the table for our breakfast. I suddenly felt starving as soon as my eyes landed on the pasta. However, someone rang the bell. I went straight to the door and was welcomed by Attorney Wade Morgan.<br /> “Good morning, Mrs. Anderson.”<br /> I smiled at him. “Good morning, Attorney. Come in.”<br /> “Who’s there, Kelly?”<br /> Pierce appeared behind me even before Attorney Morgan stepped his foot inside the house. Pierce’s lips parted after he saw the person standing in front of us.<br /> “Good morning, Mr. Anderson.”<br /> Pierce looked at me so I gave him a smile. “He’s here to deliver and process our divorce papers.”<br /> Pierce didn’t answer. We ate our breakfast and only me and Attorney Morgan were talking. Pierce is strangely silent but I feel like it’s because he’s worried about his grandmother. Our breakfast ended in a deafening silence and when it was time to sign the divorce papers, I felt suffocated.<br /> Now, it's time to end this false happiness.<br /> Taking a deep breath, I signed my name on the divorce paper.<br /> Pierce’s POV<br /> She signed the divorce papers. She signed it without thinking twice. In front of me.<br /> A bitter smile spilled as I downed another glass of spirit.<br /> I should be happy about that when I was the one who asked for the divorce. But…but my heart felt so heavy ever since Kelly signed the papers.<br /> Kelly and I had been friends for over 10 years. The day she transferred to my high school, I accidentally bumped into her by the lake. She looked like a frightened kitten, carefully hiding her true self behind that thick antique eyeglasses. That was interesting.<br /> I didn't realize that nerdy transfer girl in everyone's eyes would be the daughter of my mother's best friend. With that, we grew to be friends. Best friends.<br /> Kelly changed a lot after graduation. When I came back from the first vacation alone with Lexi, I was surprised to find that my best friend was far different. Taking off her heavy glasses and changing out of her baggy hoodies, she learned how to dress up. She was always a fast learner and in an instant, Kelly became a total campus goddess, with her brain and beauty.<br /> More and more suitors gathered around her. I could see how much she was troubled, so as her best friend, I naturally became that escort. Although it caused some rumors, I knew we were only best friends. I already had Lexi.<br /> No one knew why Kelly never had a boyfriend. I once wanted to ask about it but gave up, as I had a feeling that she would leave me once I learned the answer. I never wanted to lose her. She was my best friend.<br /> Everything went well but after the countless argument with Lexi about our future life, we fell into a long cold war. And when I was ready to surrender, Lexi suddenly went to another city after sending me a breakup text. I flew all night to chase her, only to find her sleeping with another man. My heart was broken.<br /> I fell into darkness and spirit became my best partner. Just when I thought I was about to rot in my darkened room, a figure appeared in the doorway, bringing me the only light. It was Kelly.<br /> I broke down with tears in the arms of my best friend. And Kelly suspended her studies abroad to be by my side. Without her, I could never overcome that hardest time. I'd been always grateful for that. I swore to cherish her for my whole life.<br /> But I never expected that Grams would wish us to get married. I agreed to give it a shot. It’s better to marry her than marrying another woman my family chose for me. My family was a fan of arranged marriage. And since they also treated Kelly as family, I felt like if I refused to marry her, my family would set her up with someone. It’s better to be me than anyone else, right? I just want to protect her...<br /> After three years of happy peaceful marriage, I started to consider having a child with Kelly. She always loved kids, I knew. However, it was at that time, that I met Lexi again on my business trip.<br /> My heart was in turmoil when the woman I once loved so deeply cried in my arms. Lexi told me everything that happened to her. Her fate wasn’t good to her and she wants me back. I thought my feelings for her disappeared, but as soon as she came back, everything came back to me too. Our memories and even my feelings for her.<br /> It’s Kelly, my best friend over Lexi, my first love. I don’t know what to do. God knows how much I dreamed of having Lexi because she’s my first love but…losing Kelly should not be a trade to get my first love.<br /> I feel like I’m losing Kelly now just because of that divorce paper.<br /> Can it all start over?

Her delicate skin was mostly hidden under a sheer blanket, with only her arms peeking out, bearing the faint red traces of a night filled with ptootshieion.<br /> <br /> Cynthia Jenkins stirred, letting out a soft moan as she woke from her deep sleep. She tried to get up, but her body, still weary and sore, sank back onto the bed.<br /> <br /> Memories from the night before came rushing back, bringing a faint smile to her face. For the first time in their three-year marriage, she and her husband, Nathan Richardson, had made love.<br /> <br /> She noticed Nathan wasn't in the room, and a tinge of disappointment flickered across her face, quickly replaced by composure.<br /> <br /> At the beginning of their marriage, Nathan had been distant, rarely showing any affection. Cynthia couldn't help but wonder if last night marked a turning point, a sign that he had finally accepted her.<br /> <br /> With a flicker of hope, Cynthia rose cheerfully from the bed. The moment her bare feet touched the cold floor, she felt a sudden chill.<br /> <br /> Picking up a blue sapphire cufflink, oddly shaped and shimmering, from the floor, Cynthia widened her eyes in surprise. 'Could this be Nathan's?'<br /> <br /> Thinking of this, Cynthia smiled and placed the cufflink in her bag. Then, she went to freshen up herself before returning home.<br /> <br /> Cynthia had barely stepped out of the door when she ran into an unexpected visitor.<br /> <br /> "Cynthia?" The woman in front of her, dressed in a crisp white dress and possessing a sharp, piercing voice, was Kelly Dixon, the second lady of the Dixon family.<br /> <br /> Cynthia had always been at odds with the Dixon sisters. Jessica Dixon, the eldest lady of the family, was Nathan's first love. But today, Cynthia was in a good mood. "Kelly, what a surprise to see you here."<br /> <br /> "Indeed." Kelly sized up Cynthia with a mocking smile. "If I had arrived a bit earlier or later, I might have missed catching you in the act."<br /> <br /> She pointed at the red marks on Cynthia's arms with disdain. "What is this? You shameless woman! How dare you fooling around with other men behind Nathan's back!"<br /> <br /> Cynthia frowned, "What are you talking about?"<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, I've always known you're shameless, clinging to Nathan. But I never pegged you as someone who'd stoop this low." Kelly's eyes sparkled with the thrill of uncovering a juicy piece of gossip. "Are you really going to say these marks are from a night with Nathan?"<br /> <br /> Before Cynthia could utter a word, Kelly cut her off. "Please, cut the act. Nathan was at the hospital last night, staying by my sister's side. He was too busy to even catch a nap, much less waste time on someone like you."<br /> <br /> Cynthia's face changed dramatically. "Nathan was at the hospital?"<br /> <br /> "Where else would he be? You think he'd come to see you?" Kelly's voice was thick with sarcasm, as if she had just heard something ridiculous. "You've been caught sneaking around with someone else, and I'm not letting this slide so easily!<br /> <br /> "I'm going to show Nathan just how low you can go!" Kelly declared, her resolve unwavering. "I'm calling him right now to come over!"<br /> <br /> Cynthia couldn't absorb a word. Her mind went blank.<br /> <br /> If Nathan had spent the entire night in the hospital, then who was the man who had been so ptootshieionately entwined with her last night?<br /> <br /> A sudden realization made Cynthia's face darken.<br /> <br /> She had been set up!<br /> <br /> Yesterday was their three-year wedding anniversary, and Nathan surprisingly messaged her to meet at a hotel.<br /> <br /> Overjoyed and without a second thought, Cynthia rushed over. But when she arrived, Nathan texted to say he would be late and even ordered her some takeout.<br /> <br /> Cynthia, not sensing anything amiss and simply savoring the food, didn't expect to completely lose consciousness after finishing her meal. And that man last night...<br /> <br /> As Cynthia thought about everything that happened last night, her face turned deathly pale. 'How could this happen?'<br /> <br /> "Nathan already hates you for taking Jessica's place, and now, he'll never forgive you!" Kelly said triumphantly after a quick phone call. She stood firmly in Cynthia's path, blocking her exit.<br /> <br /> Cynthia hadn't even considered leaving. She felt a chill run down her spine. Besides, there weren't many people who could send a message using Nathan's phone.<br /> <br /> Soon, Nathan hurried down the corridor. "Kelly, did you need something from me?"<br /> <br /> He glanced at Cynthia with impatience. "What are you doing here? Jessica is still in the hospital. What are you up to now?"<br /> <br /> "I..." Cynthia opened her mouth, her mind in turmoil, unsure how to respond to him.<br /> <br /> "Nathan, I called you here," Kelly interjected eagerly. "I just so happened to see Cynthia sneaking out of a hotel room with some guy. It's serious, so I had to tell you."<br /> <br /> Nathan's face darkened instantly. "Cynthia, is it true?"<br /> <br /> "Would you believe me if I say I was framed?" Cynthia's eyes held a flicker of hope. "It was you who..."<br /> <br /> A smack came!<br /> <br /> Nathan's hand struck her face with a resounding slap, his expression cold and detached.<br /> <br /> "Pathetic! Why would anyone frame you?" Nathan's eyes blazed with anger at the sight of the red marks on Cynthia's arms.<br /> <br /> Even if he had no feelings for Cynthia, she was still his wife in name. This was nothing but a shame to him.<br /> <br /> Kelly watched with a smirk, stirring the pot. "Exactly, you must be delusional to think someone's out to get you.<br /> <br /> "Nathan, she's just lashing out because you're nice to Jessica. I caught her once, but who knows how many times she's cheated on you. Wake up, man."<br /> <br /> "What else do you have to say?" Nathan's gaze was filled with disgust.<br /> <br /> "What can I say?" Cynthia touched her burning cheek, a cold despair settling in her heart. She looked at Nathan, fighting the urge to laugh bitterly. "Nathan, don't you even want to ask why I ended up here?"<br /> <br /> It was ridiculous that her husband seemed to be solely dedicated to helping others deceive her.<br /> <br /> Nathan's eyes were full of disgust. "What exactly are you trying to say?"<br /> <br /> Cynthia felt utterly disheartened. She held up her phone, emphasizing each word. "Your phone sent me a message to come here. I trusted it and showed up. Did you text me, Nathan?"<br /> <br /> Nathan's gaze flickered. Last night, after getting treated, Jessica borrowed his phone...<br /> <br /> "It seems you know now who it was." Cynthia noticed his evasive look and had her suspicions. She smiled through her tears, "Nathan, I'm your wife. I'm the one being framed."<br /> <br /> Kelly quickly interjected, "Nathan, don't fall for her act. She's just looking for an excuse..."<br /> <br /> "This is between me and my husband. It's not your place to interfere," Cynthia retorted, showing her temper in front of Nathan for the first time.<br /> <br /> "You..." Kelly was furious and about to retort.<br /> <br /> However, Nathan had made up his mind at that moment. "I sent the text. I got tied up, sure, but that's no excuse for you cheating!"<br /> <br /> "It seems this is your choice, then." Cynthia's heart turned cold. Despite knowing she was wronged, he still chose to defend that hypocritical woman. She couldn't believe this was the man she loved.<br /> <br /> Nathan didn't show any sign of guilt. "Cynthia, it's you who fooled around with another man. Who else is there to blame?"<br /> <br /> Even though he felt somewhat uncomfortable about what Jessica did, he still firmly sided with her.<br /> <br /> "I was blind to have trusted the wrong person."<br /> <br /> Cynthia closed her eyes, and when she opened them moments later, they were clear and resolved. "Nathan, let's get a divorce."<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> "Cynthia, what on earth are you thinking?" Nathan frowned slightly while Kelly's eyes flickered with surprise.<br /> <br /> Cynthia gave a self-mocking smile. "Nathan, I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> <br /> With those words, Cynthia felt a sudden clarity in her heart.<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, you're the one who messed up, but here you are, playing word games. Are you threatening Nathan?" Kelly said, secretly pleased.<br /> <br /> Cynthia glanced coldly at her. "Kelly, sometimes, you should just stay quiet."<br /> <br /> But Nathan's response caught Cynthia off guard. "I don't agree to the divorce."<br /> <br /> Cynthia let out a bitter laugh. "Isn't this what you've always wanted? Now that I'm stepping aside, you can be with Jessica happily ever after. Why disagree?<br /> <br /> "Or is there something more you're after, something you haven't gotten from me yet?" Cynthia's tone shifted, causing a subtle change in the expressions of the two before her.<br /> <br /> She didn't think herself so self-absorbed to believe Nathan still had feelings for her. Their reactions pretty much confirmed her suspicions.<br /> <br /> "I guess I was right." Cynthia curled up her lips. "So, Nathan, what's it gonna take for you to sign those divorce papers?"<br /> <br /> Nathan's eyes were deep and solemn. At this point, there was nothing left to hide. "Jessica's really sick, Cynthia, and you're the only one who can donate a kidney to save her. That's my only condition. Help her, and you won't regret it, I promise."<br /> <br /> Cynthia was thunderstruck, her voice hoarse with disbelief. "You mean, this whole time...you were just after my kidney?"<br /> <br /> "Jessica is the only one Nathan loves. Why else would he marry you if not to save her?" Kelly sneered, and Nathan's look confirmed that she was right.<br /> <br /> Cynthia felt a chill in her heart. It all made sense now. Nathan had initially balked at his grandfather Mark Richardson's suggestion of marrying Cynthia. He had been adamant about marrying Jessica instead, only to abruptly change his mind when Cynthia was nearly ready to walk away.<br /> <br /> She had hoped that, over time, Nathan might come to love her. But she realized now that from the very start, he had been scheming for her kidney!<br /> <br /> "Cynthia," Nathan said, softening his tone deliberately. "Just help me out this one time, and I promise to keep today's drama under wraps. I'll make it worth your while, enough to start over somewhere far away."<br /> <br /> "In your dreams, Nathan." Cynthia emphasized each word. "Sure, I had feelings for you, but not enough to degrade myself like this."<br /> <br /> "Looks like you choose the hard way." Nathan, never one with a good temper, immediately hardened his stance. "If you refuse to donate a kidney to Jessica, I will absolutely not agree to the divorce."<br /> <br /> Cynthia laughed angrily and retorted, "Fine by me. Do you have any idea how hard I worked to marry you? If you want to grow old with me, then so be it."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia!" Nathan's face soured. He was about to speak when Cynthia ruthlessly cut him off.<br /> <br /> "I just give you one chance, Nathan. Be at the Courthouse entrance at 9 AM sharp tomorrow. If you don't show up..."<br /> <br /> Cynthia smirked coldly. "Then even better. Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> <br /> With that, Cynthia turned and left, not bothering to give Nathan or Kelly a second glance.<br /> <br /> "Nathan, what if she refuses the surgery? What about Jessica?" Kelly, watching Cynthia's retreating figure, feigned urgency.<br /> <br /> Nathan's gaze was deep. "Don't worry. I'll find a way to make her agree."<br /> <br /> As Cynthia stepped out of the hotel, a sleek Rolls-Royce Phantom suddenly pulled up, blocking her path.<br /> <br /> The window rolled down, showing a woman in her forties, still exuding charm, a face often seen on financial news.<br /> <br /> "You're right on time, Mom." Recognizing the woman, Cynthia wasn't surprised at all, her voice and posture shifting to something more dignified.<br /> <br /> "Get in," Heather Brooks said calmly.<br /> <br /> With a deep breath, Cynthia got into the back seat. Throughout the ride, they hardly talked to each other.<br /> <br /> In Litharia, Jenkins Villa stood majestically in the most coveted scenic area, home to the affluent Jenkins family.<br /> <br /> "I've heard the story between you and Nathan. So, have you finally seen Nathan's true colors?"<br /> <br /> In the living room of Jenkins Villa, Heather sipped her coffee, looking at Cynthia indifferently. "It's time for you to come back and take over the family business."<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Heather had five children, and aside from her only daughter, Cynthia, the other four sons kept their identities hidden, excelling in their fields but refusing to take over the family business.<br /> <br /> Left with no other option, Heather pinned her hopes on Cynthia.<br /> <br /> Cynthia breathed deeply, only then realizing that she had been under her mother's watchful eye for these past three years.<br /> <br /> It wasn't surprising, though. Since her father's death, the Jenkins family had been fragmented. Heather wasn't truly a Jenkins. Although she had been holding the reins, she was surrounded by those eyeing her position. Eventually, Heather had grown accustomed to keeping everything under her control, leaving no stone unturned.<br /> <br /> "It's not possible right now," Cynthia said somewhat helplessly.<br /> <br /> Heather's eyes narrowed as she spoke firmly. "What, you still have feelings for him?"<br /> <br /> "Of course not," Cynthia couldn't help but laugh dryly. "Mom, I just need some time to divorce him. I promise, after the divorce, I will definitely return to the Jenkins family."<br /> <br /> Cynthia mused, why did she ever waste three years pining for Nathan?<br /> <br /> Getting the response she wanted, Heather nodded in satisfaction. "That's more like a Jenkins girl. Also..."<br /> <br /> "What is it?" Seeing Heather hesitating to speak, Cynthia was curious.<br /> <br /> Heather spoke steadily. "The man you slept with at the hotel, do you recall who he is?"<br /> <br /> Cynthia's expression froze, and she remained silent.<br /> <br /> "I'm thinking about finding this man. If he's decent enough, we could welcome him into the family. The Jenkins can certainly afford to support one more. This would also solidify your position in the family."<br /> <br /> What Heather left unsaid was that if the man was not up to her standard, the consequences were obvious.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was at a loss for words. She didn't even know how to argue with that.<br /> <br /> Back in her room, Cynthia lay on the bed, overwhelmed. What happened today was more thrilling than her life during the past three years combined.<br /> <br /> She absently played with the cufflink in her hand, a lone clue left by the mysterious man from the previous night.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Cynthia realized something and sat up abruptly. The cufflink was a limited edition, and her brother, the third sir of the Jenkins, Eric Jenkins, also a leading designer, might know its origin.<br /> <br /> Without hesitation, Cynthia called Eric.<br /> <br /> "Thia, you've finally taken your eyes off that idiot, huh? What's up?" Eric's voice was cheerful over the phone.<br /> <br /> Cynthia couldn't help but smile, "Starting today, Nathan and I have nothing to do with each other. We're getting divorced tomorrow."<br /> <br /> At that moment, in the midst of a major international jewelry show, Eric sat up straight. "What? What on earth happened to make the blind girl finally see the light?"<br /> <br /> Cynthia laughed. "Come on, stop kidding. Are you free right now? I could really use your help. Check your messages. I've sent you a picture. Can you figure out where this thing's from?"<br /> <br /> The next morning, outside the Courthouse, Nathan stood with a stern expression. He arrived on time and had been waiting for two hours without a glimpse of Cynthia.<br /> <br /> His calls went unanswered, and just as his patience was running thin, Cynthia finally arrived.<br /> <br /> She was dressed to the nines, radiant and elegant, a stark contrast to her former self. Nathan almost didn't recognize her at first sight.<br /> <br /> "What now? Getting cold feet about the divorce?" Seeing Cynthia slowly making her appearance, Nathan thought she regretted her decision not to divorce and had dressed up like this to win him back, feeling smug.<br /> <br /> "Getting cold feet? Why do I have to?" Cynthia touched her earring. She had intentionally made Nathan wait outside today.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was certain that Nathan wouldn't leave as long as his goal remained unmet, even if it meant waiting there all day.<br /> <br /> Nathan snorted, "As long as you're willing to help Jessica, we can still be friends."<br /> <br /> "What are you thinking? We're getting divorced and you still think we can be friends?" Cynthia scoffed dismissively. "You know what, Nathan? I've changed my mind. Why should I rely on a man who's after my organs? There are plenty of decent men out there, like that guy from the hotel. I'm quite satisfied with him."<br /> <br /> Even if Nathan had once saved her life, the help she had given him secretly over the past three years was more than enough to settle any debt.<br /> <br /> "Shameless!" Nathan didn't expect Cynthia to change her attitude so quickly, grinding his teeth in anger.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was unapologetic. "And what about you? Let's go. I can hardly wait."<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Half an hour later, the two emerged from the Courthouse. Cynthia held the divorce papers, knowing that from now on, her marriage to Nathan was officially over.<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, my offer is always on the table. When you're ready, you know where to find me," Nathan said, glancing at Cynthia, his words laced with implication.<br /> <br /> He had always thought that Cynthia came from a modest background. The financial security he could provide was something he thought Cynthia couldn't earn in a lifetime.<br /> <br /> Cynthia scoffed, "Dream on, Nathan. That day will never come."<br /> <br /> Nathan was about to respond when his expression suddenly changed. He quickly descended the steps, leaving Cynthia behind.<br /> <br /> "Jessica? What are you doing here?"<br /> <br /> At the foot of the steps, a girl with an innocent appearance and long hair cascading over her shoulders rushed toward them. Her face was ghostly pale. It was Jessica, the one Nathan always held dear.<br /> <br /> In just a few short steps, Jessica was panting.<br /> <br /> Nathan, heart aching, wrapped his arms around Jessica, gently stroking her back to help her catch her breath.<br /> <br /> Cynthia had had enough of their closeness. She was ready to leave then and there.<br /> <br /> "Wait up, Cynthia, please, just a sec," Jessica panted, rushing to intercept Cynthia.<br /> <br /> "Do you need something?" Cynthia asked indifferently, causing Nathan to frown.<br /> <br /> Jessica bit her lip. "I... I'm sorry about Nathan. He's always saying the opposite of what he feels. He really cares about you, you know. The last thing I want is for you guys to split."<br /> <br /> Seeing Jessica's meekness, Nathan felt a twinge of pain. "Jessica, you don't have to apologize for me."<br /> <br /> "Nathan's right. Why do you think you can apologize on his behalf?" Cynthia looked at Jessica, whose facade of innocence was grating on her.<br /> <br /> It's all my fault. He's been tough on you because he's worried about my condition. Can you just let it slide this time? I don't have much time left, and...I really hope there's someone by his side when I'm gone.<br /> <br /> Cynthia smiled, "It seems you're quite aware of your own health condition. You two are really close, right? Then how could you bear to push him towards me?"<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, don't push your luck," Nathan said, his face clouding over.<br /> <br /> Jessica bit her lip. "Nathan and I are just friends. I genuinely wish you two to patch things up."<br /> <br /> "But the divorce is already final," Cynthia said deliberately.<br /> <br /> Jessica quickly suggested. "But if there's a chance, why not consider remarriage?"<br /> <br /> "You're really looking out for us, huh? Do you even believe what you're saying?" Cynthia scoffed. She was done playing along and decided to confront the truth head-on. "You don't want us back together, Jessica. You're worried that if we divorce, Nathan won't be able to control me to get you a kidney transplant in time before finding a new donor. Sorry, but I'm not budging. I won't let you get your way."<br /> <br /> "It's not like that, Cynthia. You've got it all wrong. I would never..." She shook her head vigorously, looking utterly wronged.<br /> <br /> Cynthia smirked. "You may not do it yourself, but you're great at hinting. I believe someone would do it for you."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, this was all my idea. What does it have to do with Jessica? Back off," Nathan said, his expression darkening as he quickly jumped to Jessica's defense.<br /> <br /> Cynthia sneered, "Funny, I didn't even mention a name. But since you care so much for each other, why not make it official? The city hall is just around the corner. Why wait? Go get married today.<br /> <br /> "At least you're his wife when you are gone, Jessica. Isn't that right?"<br /> <br /> Jessica's eyes flickered with unreadable emotion, and she still played innocent. "Cynthia, Nathan and I are really just good friends. I'm getting worse. After years without a matching kidney donor, I've given up hope."<br /> <br /> "So, I'm your only hope, huh? No wonder you're so desperate to having me stay," Cynthia said bluntly, cutting to the heart of the matter.<br /> <br /> Jessica, overwhelmed with frustration and unable to counter Cynthia's relentless words, suddenly collapsed.<br /> <br /> "Jessica, Jessica!" Nathan held her in his arms, calling her name repeatedly, but Jessica showed no response.<br /> <br /> "How convenient to ptootshie out at this moment." Cynthia noted with a smile.<br /> <br /> Nathan glared at Cynthia, scooping Jessica up in his arms, and warned sternly, "If anything happens to Jessica, Cynthia, I'll never forgive you."<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Having said that, Nathan hurriedly carried Jessica to the car and headed for the hospital.<br /> <br /> Cynthia, unfazed, turned and drove towards Richardson Villa to pack her things.<br /> <br /> She had lived in Richardson Villa for three years. Three years ago, she was overjoyed, thinking she had finally found the person from her childhood.<br /> <br /> It was she who had saved Nathan from danger, even daring to bet with Heather and hiding her identity to marry into the Richardson family. She tiptoed through life there, desperately trying to fit in.<br /> <br /> Yet, throughout all those three years, the Richardsons never accepted her as one of them, always leaving her feeling like an outsider no matter how hard she tried.<br /> <br /> Cynthia finally realized that Nathan had been insincere from the start. Reflecting on it now, she just couldn't believe how naive she had been, viewing everything through the rose-colored gltootshiees of her childhood memories.<br /> <br /> Luckily, she had finally woken up. There was no going back to this family for her.<br /> <br /> As she entered the living room, Kelly stood at the top of the stairs, looking down at her with a smug expression.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was not surprised. A month ago, Nathan had brazenly brought the Dixon sisters back to live in Richardson Villa.<br /> <br /> Nathan's mother, Sharon Richardson, had been completely charmed by them, never showing Cynthia any kindness.<br /> <br /> Looking down on Cynthia, Kelly gloated. "Cynthia, you're already divorced from Nathan. Why do you even show your face here?<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, I'm talking to you! Do you think playing deaf and dumb will get you through? Shameless." Kelly stood in the middle of the staircase, arms crossed, saying sternly.<br /> <br /> Cynthia glanced at her indifferently. "You know very well that who's the shameless one. Move aside."<br /> <br /> "What if I don't?" Kelly smirked triumphantly. "You are nothing but a discarded wife, and yet you dare to be arrogant in front of me. If you want me to step aside, beg for it."<br /> <br /> "Kelly, I really admire your reckless courage," Cynthia said with a light laugh. "I haven't even bothered with you yet, and here you are, stepping right into the crosshairs."<br /> <br /> Kelly didn't take Cynthia's words seriously, her eyes filled with scorn. "You think you can intimidate me, Cynthia? Really, what do you think you're capable of?"<br /> <br /> A sharp glint flashed in Cynthia's eyes as she spoke calmly. "A minor actress shamelessly moves into a married man's house, and within a month, the young couple is divorced. I wonder, if this little scandal hits the headlines, how your fans will react. Will they stand by you, or will they turn their backs, dragging your name through the mud?"<br /> <br /> Kelly, a mediocre graduate from a film academy with unremarkable looks and talent, had only managed to carve a niche for herself in showbiz with Nathan's financial support. She was, at best, a second-tier star, and her position in the entertainment world was what she valued most.<br /> <br /> Sure enough, Kelly's face changed drastically at these words. "Cynthia, are you threatening me?"<br /> <br /> "Right, I am threatening you," Cynthia admitted. "Better watch your step with me. If not, I'll make sure this story goes public. You've got plenty of enemies itching for a scoop like this. I wonder how many fans will stick by you after that."<br /> <br /> "You wouldn't dare!" Kelly's face betrayed a flash of panic.<br /> <br /> Cynthia scoffed, "Try me. I've got nothing to hide. You're the one who should be worried, not me. Don't believe me? Go ahead, push your luck!"<br /> <br /> Perhaps it was her tolerance over these past three years that had given these people the audacity to challenge her.<br /> <br /> Having said that, Cynthia pushed past Kelly's shoulder, striding upstairs to her room, leaving Kelly standing there in fury.<br /> <br /> The master room was divided into two parts - a study and a bedroom. Nathan never spent the night in the bedroom, and the study was more like a shared area for the two.<br /> <br /> In less than half an hour, Cynthia had packed her things. After three years, all she had filled was one suitcase and a backpack. Looking at them, she almost wanted to laugh.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, she remembered a pen of hers in the study. As she went in to retrieve it, she noticed a document on the desk.<br /> <br /> Her eyes fell on the paper. It was a bidding proposal from Nathan's company for a project under the Jenkins Group.<br /> <br /> Cynthia almost laughed. In the past, if she had seen this document, she would have secretly helped, arranging for the Jenkins Group to internally fix the bid to help Nathan secure the project.<br /> <br /> But now, seeing the proposal, Cynthia smiled, promising herself to give Nathan a surprise.<br /> <br /> After packing her things, Cynthia, dragging her suitcase, was about to leave when suddenly someone appeared at the door.<br /> <br /> "Don't worry, I'm all packed and I won't be back," Cynthia said indifferently. To her, Nathan had become less significant than a stranger.<br /> <br /> Nathan snorted, "That's it? That's all you have to say?"<br /> <br /> "What more is there between us?" Cynthia couldn't help but laugh. "The fact that you're standing here means Jessica is still alive. Now, if you don't mind, step aside. I'm hurried to move out."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, I never realized how sharp-tongued you could be," Nathan said coldly, staring at the person before him. "Before you leave, you must apologize to Kelly!"<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> "Why should I apologize?" Cynthia released her suitcase, her eyes brimming with mockery. "Really, Nathan? Isn't Jessica enough for you? Or are you trying to have them both?"<br /> <br /> Nathan was close to losing his temper. "What nonsense are you talking about? Kelly is like a sister to me, nothing more!"<br /> <br /> "That's a question you should be asking your dear mother, not me," Cynthia said, uninterested in arguing further.<br /> <br /> Sharon had always favored the Dixon sisters. While Jessica was delicate and often sick, Sharon secretly hoped Kelly would be Nathan's wife. Nathan, however, was completely oblivious to this.<br /> <br /> Nathan took a deep breath, trying to keep his anger in check. He needed to remember why he was here. His voice softened but still carried a hint of superiority. "Listen, Cynthia, I'm here to make a deal with you. If you agree to donate a kidney to Jessica, I'll compensate you."<br /> <br /> "Compensate? How much?" Cynthia's tone was full of mockery, but Nathan, oblivious, thought she was actually considering it.<br /> <br /> "Forty thousand dollars, Cynthia. That's way more than you'd make in years," Nathan said, confident in his proposition, believing that to Cynthia, 40 thousand dollars was a fortune.<br /> <br /> Cynthia burst into uncontrollable laughter, almost crying with mirth.<br /> <br /> Nathan, infuriated and embarrtootshieed, demanded, "What's so funny?"<br /> <br /> It took Cynthia a while to compose herself. She spoke slowly, "Your absurd daydreams, Nathan. And how clueless you are about your own ignorance. Here's my offer. Four million dollars for Kelly's kidney. Convince her. It's way more than she could make in years."<br /> <br /> "Enough! If you want more, just say it. Stop pretending," Nathan said, looking at her as if she were insane.<br /> <br /> Cynthia calmly replied, "Believe it or not, that's your problem. I'll say this one last time. I will never donate a kidney to Jessica. This is it. We're done!"<br /> <br /> With that, she dragged her suitcase past Nathan.<br /> <br /> From behind, Nathan called out confidently. "Cynthia, one day you'll come back to me for money!"<br /> <br /> "In your dreams," Cynthia retorted without turning back just as she was about to leave. Suddenly, a man approached her head-on.<br /> <br /> Their eyes met unexpectedly, and Cynthia was momentarily startled. The man was tall, easily six foot three, with a straight nose and strikingly handsome features. What caught the attention most, however, were his deep eyes that could easily draw someone in without them realizing it.<br /> <br /> This was Nathan's younger uncle, Lawrence Richardson.<br /> <br /> The moment Lawrence saw Cynthia's face clearly, his brow twitched subtly. His look was complex, unreadable, like a sharp sword fixed on her face, shrouded in mystery.<br /> <br /> Cynthia guessed that Lawrence might have overheard her argument with Nathan and was reacting to it. She nodded casually, keeping her cool.<br /> <br /> Within a few seconds, Lawrence masked his emotions, his eyes settling into a serene calmness. They continued walking, merely brushing past each other.<br /> <br /> However, in that brief moment of ptootshieing, Cynthia's expression changed dramatically. Subconsciously, she slowed her pace, her eyes drawn to Lawrence's suit.<br /> <br /> The left sleeve of his gray, tailor-made suit sported a unique sapphire cufflink, exuding a subtle elegance. However, the right sleeve was conspicuously bare, missing its matching piece.<br /> <br /> In an instant, Cynthia felt utterly disheveled, as if a tornado had just swept through her world.<br /> <br /> "Thia, about that thing you asked me to look into, I think I'm onto something." Eric's voice rose teasingly from the other end of the phone, deliberately keeping her in suspense.<br /> <br /> Stopped at a red light, Cynthia sat in her Ferrari, her mind elsewhere. "No need to guess. I've figured it out."<br /> <br /> "Oh, really?" Eric sounded genuinely surprised. "I haven't even told you yet. How did you know?"<br /> <br /> "Just forget about it." Cynthia pressed her temples, weary. "Eric, let's pretend I never asked. Focus on your work. Bye."<br /> <br /> Before Eric could respond, Cynthia reclined in her seat, her head throbbing. The way Lawrence had looked at her earlier made her wonder...if he had recognized her.<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Cynthia couldn't help but feel relieved. Luckily, she was already divorced. Otherwise, bumping into him all the time would've been too awkward to handle.<br /> <br /> Just as she returned to Jenkins Villa, the butler immediately approached her to report that Heather was waiting for her in the upstairs study. Cynthia, with a resigned smile, handed her things over to a servant and made her way upstairs.<br /> <br /> "Back already?" Heather, surrounded by a mountain of papers, glanced up and gave a small nod. "Everything sorted?"<br /> <br /> Cynthia smiled freely, "I've got the divorce papers, and all my stuff is moved back. There's no need for further contact."<br /> <br /> She sat down in front of Heather's desk, tentatively starting the conversation. "Mom, I heard the Jenkins Group is starting the bidding process for the project in the Grimes Group? Have we made a decision yet?"<br /> <br /> Heather looked up, her stern gaze softening a bit as she scrutinized Cynthia. "The bidding is set for next week. So far, we haven't found the right fit yet. What's got you interested all of a sudden?<br /> <br /> "Right, you said before that after the divorce, you would return to the Jenkins Group and take over my place. Are you ready to step up now?" Heather reminded her again.<br /> <br /> Cynthia smiled wryly, "Running the Jenkins Group can wait a bit. I've been out of the game for three years. Jumping in headfirst might just show off my rust. I'm thinking of starting with the Grimes Group project, you know, to get my feet wet. Gotta ease into it."<br /> <br /> "Why bother with all that? You've got the talent," Heather disagreed, confident in Cynthia's abilities.<br /> <br /> Cynthia felt somewhat helpless but still stood her ground. "We need to let the old guard get used to the idea. If I swoop in right after coming back, who knows how many troubles they might throw in my way. Even if I can handle it, it's still a htootshiele."<br /> <br /> Heather looked at her for a long moment before giving in. "Alright, have it your way. But get up to speed fast. I can't hold off for long."<br /> <br /> "Okay, I won't let you down," Cynthia said with a slight smile, her gaze drifting to the scenery outside the window.<br /> <br /> In the VIP ward of the rehabilitation hospital, all the nurses knew Jessica in Room 5 had a super devoted boyfriend. But inside that room, the truth was a whole other story.<br /> <br /> "Nathan, don't be so impulsive. Cynthia's a good girl, really. You should be nicer to her." Jessica leaned against the headboard, her face ghostly pale.<br /> <br /> Nathan strongly disagreed, "Jessica, don't be fooled by her. Remember what she did to you? And how she spoke to Kelly? She's just a troublemaker, trust me."<br /> <br /> Jessica smiled gently, placing her hand on Nathan's back. "She just cares too much about you. Look, my body... It's not great. You should focus on your life, not mine.<br /> <br /> "I want you two to get back together. Let her be there for you. That way, I can go peacefully, knowing you're not alone."<br /> <br /> "Jessica..." Nathan's heart sank as he looked at her, her selflessness only deepening his pain. "Don't say that. We're going to beat this, okay?"<br /> <br /> Jessica's eyes were downcast as she feigned nonchalance. "At this point, unless we find a kidney that matches, there's no hope. Please, I don't want you to be worried about me anymore."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia's a match. Leave it to me, I'll talk to her," Nathan said confidently.<br /> <br /> Jessica quickly shook her head. "Don't push her, okay? If she's not up to it, I won't accept it either."<br /> <br /> "You're just too kind..." Nathan became even more determined to get Cynthia's agreement. He was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang.<br /> <br /> "hecko, is this Mr. Nathan Richardson from the Richardson Group? This is the Jenkins Group. We've gone through your proposal, and our head would like to talk with you one on one.<br /> <br /> Nathan was overjoyed upon hearing this. Getting along with the Jenkins could elevate his status in the Richardson family.<br /> <br /> He mouthed "the Jenkins Group" to Jessica, who also looked pleasantly surprised.<br /> <br /> "Can you do this afternoon?" The person from the Jenkins Group had already set the time.<br /> <br /> Nathan hesitated as he looked at Jessica's beautiful yet pale face. "This afternoon?" He had promised to spend the entire day with Jessica.<br /> <br /> The ward fell silent. Noticing Nathan's hesitation, Jessica smiled and waved her hand, signaling him not to worry about her and to quickly agree. Urged by Jessica, Nathan awkwardly consented.<br /> <br /> He hung up the phone, his expression clouded. "Jessica, I..."<br /> <br /> Jessica spoke with understanding. "Come on, you've been working so hard on this project, and now you've got a chance you just can't ptootshie up."<br /> <br /> "But I promised to spend the whole day with you today," Nathan said, his brow furrowing with guilt.<br /> <br /> "Don't be silly, I'll be fine, and Kelly will come over this afternoon," Jessica said, her eyes glistening. "How about this? If you feel guilty, make it up to me by spending all day with me tomorrow."<br /> <br /> Nathan's heart softened. "Okay, I'll also come over early tonight. Just take care of yourself, okay?"<br /> <br /> Once Nathan left, Jessica watched his retreating figure, a complex emotion hidden in her eyes.<br /> <br /> The Jenkins Group towered in the heart of the bustling city center, occupying an entire office building. Nathan, full of ambition, walked in, trying to calm his emotions, determined to present his best self in the upcoming meeting.<br /> <br /> A staff member knocked and led him into the reception room.<br /> <br /> Behind the wooden desk, the rotating chair was turned away from the door. The project manager, with her back to him, tapped her left hand lightly on the desk, casting a silent but palpable tension in the air.<br /> <br /> Nathan hadn't felt this nervous in a long time. He steadied his nerves and put on a composed smile. "hecko, I'm Nathan from the Richardson Group. We have an appointment this morning. Here is the Richardson Group's proposal for the Grimes Group project."<br /> <br /> A moment ptootshieed, and then a clear, confident voice answered, "Mr. Richardson, pleased to meet you." As the chair swiveled around, Nathan finally saw the project manager's face. At that moment, his eyes widened in surprise.<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Nathan blurted out without thinking, "Cynthia?"<br /> <br /> "What?" Cynthia's expression was cold, her brows slightly furrowed.<br /> <br /> Nathan finally got a good look at her.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was clad in a sharp white suit, and her short chestnut hair framed her face, exuding a sense of authority.<br /> <br /> "Sorry, my mistake. Thought you were someone else," Nathan quickly apologized, swiftly denying his initial thought. He didn't think that this woman, with such control over her surroundings, could be Cynthia.<br /> <br /> Yet, her face resembled Cynthia's so closely.<br /> <br /> "Is that so?" Cynthia responded indifferently. "Enough for the small talk, let's discuss your proposal, shall we?" She got straight into the point.<br /> <br /> Nathan, not lacking in professional skills, quickly engaged in the conversation, explaining his planning concepts in detail. Cynthia interjected occasionally with her opinions and pointed out potential problems in implementation, asking Nathan for solutions.<br /> <br /> The two of them conversed back and forth, thoroughly enjoying their discussion.<br /> <br /> "I'll take the Richardson Group proposal into careful consideration," Cynthia stated, neatly wrapping up their conversation.<br /> <br /> Nathan felt a thrill of hope at the prospect of collaboration.<br /> <br /> As their business talk concluded, Nathan couldn't help but take a few more glances at her. Driven by an inexplicable urge, he blurted out, "Do you happen to know a woman named Cynthia?"<br /> <br /> After the question, Nathan immediately regretted it, wishing he could take back his words.<br /> <br /> He was about to change the subject when Cynthia's next statement wiped the smile off his face.<br /> <br /> "Cynthia? I'm quite familiar with her."<br /> <br /> Observing Nathan's transformation from shock to utter disbelief, Cynthia chuckled internally while maintaining her apparent composure. "Surprised?"<br /> <br /> "I just didn't expect that you would actually know her," Nathan replied, staring at the woman who bore a striking resemblance to Cynthia yet with a distinctly different vibe. He couldn't help but wonder if there were really two people so similar in this world.<br /> <br /> He was filled with confusion, unable to fathom how Cynthia, with her humble background, could be connected to a project manager of the Jenkins Group.<br /> <br /> He was about to ask for details when Cynthia interjected coldly, "Mr. Richardson, let's end it here for today. I've gone over your proposal. I'll get back to you with my decision after the seminar. I've got several other meetings lined up."<br /> <br /> Since she had said that, and Nathan was no slouch at picking up cues, he quickly stood up and humbly said, "Then I'll look forward to hearing from you. I'll get going now."<br /> <br /> "Take care."<br /> <br /> As Nathan left, Cynthia sneered. She couldn't help but find amusement in Nathan's hesitant, almost fearful demeanor.<br /> <br /> Finishing her work at the office, she decided it was time to head home.<br /> <br /> In the underground parking lot, Cynthia was searching for her car with the key in hand.<br /> <br /> She hadn't walked far when she suddenly noticed someone standing not far away. The moment their eyes met, Cynthia's smile froze.<br /> <br /> The man was tall, strikingly handsome, and it was none other than Lawrence!<br /> <br /> Cynthia's mouth twitched as she forced composure, averting her gaze and steeling herself as she located her car.<br /> <br /> Pretending not to recognize him, she tried to get in her car and leave. Suddenly, the sound of approaching footsteps froze her in place. A few seconds later, Lawrence stood in front of her car, halting her movements completely. Cynthia could feel the stare.<br /> <br /> Taking a deep breath, Cynthia turned around, offering a polite smile, "Mr. Richardson, is there something you need?"<br /> <br /> Although Lawrence was Nathan's uncle, the two had actually only met once at Cynthia and Nathan's wedding three years ago. Cynthia had no idea why he would want to see her now.<br /> <br /> Lawrence stood there silently, his gaze so penetrating that it alarmed Cynthia.<br /> <br /> Just as she started to suspect he had seen through her, Lawrence smiled faintly, "Your car is blocking the way."<br /> <br /> It was only then that Cynthia noticed her vehicle was parked right behind a sleek Jaguar.

Her delicate skin was mostly hidden under a sheer blanket, with only her arms peeking out, bearing the faint red traces of a night filled with ptootshieion.<br /> <br /> Cynthia Jenkins stirred, letting out a soft moan as she woke from her deep sleep. She tried to get up, but her body, still weary and sore, sank back onto the bed.<br /> <br /> Memories from the night before came rushing back, bringing a faint smile to her face. For the first time in their three-year marriage, she and her husband, Nathan Richardson, had made love.<br /> <br /> She noticed Nathan wasn't in the room, and a tinge of disappointment flickered across her face, quickly replaced by composure.<br /> <br /> At the beginning of their marriage, Nathan had been distant, rarely showing any affection. Cynthia couldn't help but wonder if last night marked a turning point, a sign that he had finally accepted her.<br /> <br /> With a flicker of hope, Cynthia rose cheerfully from the bed. The moment her bare feet touched the cold floor, she felt a sudden chill.<br /> <br /> Picking up a blue sapphire cufflink, oddly shaped and shimmering, from the floor, Cynthia widened her eyes in surprise. 'Could this be Nathan's?'<br /> <br /> Thinking of this, Cynthia smiled and placed the cufflink in her bag. Then, she went to freshen up herself before returning home.<br /> <br /> Cynthia had barely stepped out of the door when she ran into an unexpected visitor.<br /> <br /> "Cynthia?" The woman in front of her, dressed in a crisp white dress and possessing a sharp, piercing voice, was Kelly Dixon, the second lady of the Dixon family.<br /> <br /> Cynthia had always been at odds with the Dixon sisters. Jessica Dixon, the eldest lady of the family, was Nathan's first love. But today, Cynthia was in a good mood. "Kelly, what a surprise to see you here."<br /> <br /> "Indeed." Kelly sized up Cynthia with a mocking smile. "If I had arrived a bit earlier or later, I might have missed catching you in the act."<br /> <br /> She pointed at the red marks on Cynthia's arms with disdain. "What is this? You shameless woman! How dare you fooling around with other men behind Nathan's back!"<br /> <br /> Cynthia frowned, "What are you talking about?"<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, I've always known you're shameless, clinging to Nathan. But I never pegged you as someone who'd stoop this low." Kelly's eyes sparkled with the thrill of uncovering a juicy piece of gossip. "Are you really going to say these marks are from a night with Nathan?"<br /> <br /> Before Cynthia could utter a word, Kelly cut her off. "Please, cut the act. Nathan was at the hospital last night, staying by my sister's side. He was too busy to even catch a nap, much less waste time on someone like you."<br /> <br /> Cynthia's face changed dramatically. "Nathan was at the hospital?"<br /> <br /> "Where else would he be? You think he'd come to see you?" Kelly's voice was thick with sarcasm, as if she had just heard something ridiculous. "You've been caught sneaking around with someone else, and I'm not letting this slide so easily!<br /> <br /> "I'm going to show Nathan just how low you can go!" Kelly declared, her resolve unwavering. "I'm calling him right now to come over!"<br /> <br /> Cynthia couldn't absorb a word. Her mind went blank.<br /> <br /> If Nathan had spent the entire night in the hospital, then who was the man who had been so ptootshieionately entwined with her last night?<br /> <br /> A sudden realization made Cynthia's face darken.<br /> <br /> She had been set up!<br /> <br /> Yesterday was their three-year wedding anniversary, and Nathan surprisingly messaged her to meet at a hotel.<br /> <br /> Overjoyed and without a second thought, Cynthia rushed over. But when she arrived, Nathan texted to say he would be late and even ordered her some takeout.<br /> <br /> Cynthia, not sensing anything amiss and simply savoring the food, didn't expect to completely lose consciousness after finishing her meal. And that man last night...<br /> <br /> As Cynthia thought about everything that happened last night, her face turned deathly pale. 'How could this happen?'<br /> <br /> "Nathan already hates you for taking Jessica's place, and now, he'll never forgive you!" Kelly said triumphantly after a quick phone call. She stood firmly in Cynthia's path, blocking her exit.<br /> <br /> Cynthia hadn't even considered leaving. She felt a chill run down her spine. Besides, there weren't many people who could send a message using Nathan's phone.<br /> <br /> Soon, Nathan hurried down the corridor. "Kelly, did you need something from me?"<br /> <br /> He glanced at Cynthia with impatience. "What are you doing here? Jessica is still in the hospital. What are you up to now?"<br /> <br /> "I..." Cynthia opened her mouth, her mind in turmoil, unsure how to respond to him.<br /> <br /> "Nathan, I called you here," Kelly interjected eagerly. "I just so happened to see Cynthia sneaking out of a hotel room with some guy. It's serious, so I had to tell you."<br /> <br /> Nathan's face darkened instantly. "Cynthia, is it true?"<br /> <br /> "Would you believe me if I say I was framed?" Cynthia's eyes held a flicker of hope. "It was you who..."<br /> <br /> A smack came!<br /> <br /> Nathan's hand struck her face with a resounding slap, his expression cold and detached.<br /> <br /> "Pathetic! Why would anyone frame you?" Nathan's eyes blazed with anger at the sight of the red marks on Cynthia's arms.<br /> <br /> Even if he had no feelings for Cynthia, she was still his wife in name. This was nothing but a shame to him.<br /> <br /> Kelly watched with a smirk, stirring the pot. "Exactly, you must be delusional to think someone's out to get you.<br /> <br /> "Nathan, she's just lashing out because you're nice to Jessica. I caught her once, but who knows how many times she's cheated on you. Wake up, man."<br /> <br /> "What else do you have to say?" Nathan's gaze was filled with disgust.<br /> <br /> "What can I say?" Cynthia touched her burning cheek, a cold despair settling in her heart. She looked at Nathan, fighting the urge to laugh bitterly. "Nathan, don't you even want to ask why I ended up here?"<br /> <br /> It was ridiculous that her husband seemed to be solely dedicated to helping others deceive her.<br /> <br /> Nathan's eyes were full of disgust. "What exactly are you trying to say?"<br /> <br /> Cynthia felt utterly disheartened. She held up her phone, emphasizing each word. "Your phone sent me a message to come here. I trusted it and showed up. Did you text me, Nathan?"<br /> <br /> Nathan's gaze flickered. Last night, after getting treated, Jessica borrowed his phone...<br /> <br /> "It seems you know now who it was." Cynthia noticed his evasive look and had her suspicions. She smiled through her tears, "Nathan, I'm your wife. I'm the one being framed."<br /> <br /> Kelly quickly interjected, "Nathan, don't fall for her act. She's just looking for an excuse..."<br /> <br /> "This is between me and my husband. It's not your place to interfere," Cynthia retorted, showing her temper in front of Nathan for the first time.<br /> <br /> "You..." Kelly was furious and about to retort.<br /> <br /> However, Nathan had made up his mind at that moment. "I sent the text. I got tied up, sure, but that's no excuse for you cheating!"<br /> <br /> "It seems this is your choice, then." Cynthia's heart turned cold. Despite knowing she was wronged, he still chose to defend that hypocritical woman. She couldn't believe this was the man she loved.<br /> <br /> Nathan didn't show any sign of guilt. "Cynthia, it's you who fooled around with another man. Who else is there to blame?"<br /> <br /> Even though he felt somewhat uncomfortable about what Jessica did, he still firmly sided with her.<br /> <br /> "I was blind to have trusted the wrong person."<br /> <br /> Cynthia closed her eyes, and when she opened them moments later, they were clear and resolved. "Nathan, let's get a divorce."<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> "Cynthia, what on earth are you thinking?" Nathan frowned slightly while Kelly's eyes flickered with surprise.<br /> <br /> Cynthia gave a self-mocking smile. "Nathan, I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> <br /> With those words, Cynthia felt a sudden clarity in her heart.<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, you're the one who messed up, but here you are, playing word games. Are you threatening Nathan?" Kelly said, secretly pleased.<br /> <br /> Cynthia glanced coldly at her. "Kelly, sometimes, you should just stay quiet."<br /> <br /> But Nathan's response caught Cynthia off guard. "I don't agree to the divorce."<br /> <br /> Cynthia let out a bitter laugh. "Isn't this what you've always wanted? Now that I'm stepping aside, you can be with Jessica happily ever after. Why disagree?<br /> <br /> "Or is there something more you're after, something you haven't gotten from me yet?" Cynthia's tone shifted, causing a subtle change in the expressions of the two before her.<br /> <br /> She didn't think herself so self-absorbed to believe Nathan still had feelings for her. Their reactions pretty much confirmed her suspicions.<br /> <br /> "I guess I was right." Cynthia curled up her lips. "So, Nathan, what's it gonna take for you to sign those divorce papers?"<br /> <br /> Nathan's eyes were deep and solemn. At this point, there was nothing left to hide. "Jessica's really sick, Cynthia, and you're the only one who can donate a kidney to save her. That's my only condition. Help her, and you won't regret it, I promise."<br /> <br /> Cynthia was thunderstruck, her voice hoarse with disbelief. "You mean, this whole time...you were just after my kidney?"<br /> <br /> "Jessica is the only one Nathan loves. Why else would he marry you if not to save her?" Kelly sneered, and Nathan's look confirmed that she was right.<br /> <br /> Cynthia felt a chill in her heart. It all made sense now. Nathan had initially balked at his grandfather Mark Richardson's suggestion of marrying Cynthia. He had been adamant about marrying Jessica instead, only to abruptly change his mind when Cynthia was nearly ready to walk away.<br /> <br /> She had hoped that, over time, Nathan might come to love her. But she realized now that from the very start, he had been scheming for her kidney!<br /> <br /> "Cynthia," Nathan said, softening his tone deliberately. "Just help me out this one time, and I promise to keep today's drama under wraps. I'll make it worth your while, enough to start over somewhere far away."<br /> <br /> "In your dreams, Nathan." Cynthia emphasized each word. "Sure, I had feelings for you, but not enough to degrade myself like this."<br /> <br /> "Looks like you choose the hard way." Nathan, never one with a good temper, immediately hardened his stance. "If you refuse to donate a kidney to Jessica, I will absolutely not agree to the divorce."<br /> <br /> Cynthia laughed angrily and retorted, "Fine by me. Do you have any idea how hard I worked to marry you? If you want to grow old with me, then so be it."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia!" Nathan's face soured. He was about to speak when Cynthia ruthlessly cut him off.<br /> <br /> "I just give you one chance, Nathan. Be at the Courthouse entrance at 9 AM sharp tomorrow. If you don't show up..."<br /> <br /> Cynthia smirked coldly. "Then even better. Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> <br /> With that, Cynthia turned and left, not bothering to give Nathan or Kelly a second glance.<br /> <br /> "Nathan, what if she refuses the surgery? What about Jessica?" Kelly, watching Cynthia's retreating figure, feigned urgency.<br /> <br /> Nathan's gaze was deep. "Don't worry. I'll find a way to make her agree."<br /> <br /> As Cynthia stepped out of the hotel, a sleek Rolls-Royce Phantom suddenly pulled up, blocking her path.<br /> <br /> The window rolled down, showing a woman in her forties, still exuding charm, a face often seen on financial news.<br /> <br /> "You're right on time, Mom." Recognizing the woman, Cynthia wasn't surprised at all, her voice and posture shifting to something more dignified.<br /> <br /> "Get in," Heather Brooks said calmly.<br /> <br /> With a deep breath, Cynthia got into the back seat. Throughout the ride, they hardly talked to each other.<br /> <br /> In Litharia, Jenkins Villa stood majestically in the most coveted scenic area, home to the affluent Jenkins family.<br /> <br /> "I've heard the story between you and Nathan. So, have you finally seen Nathan's true colors?"<br /> <br /> In the living room of Jenkins Villa, Heather sipped her coffee, looking at Cynthia indifferently. "It's time for you to come back and take over the family business."<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Heather had five children, and aside from her only daughter, Cynthia, the other four sons kept their identities hidden, excelling in their fields but refusing to take over the family business.<br /> <br /> Left with no other option, Heather pinned her hopes on Cynthia.<br /> <br /> Cynthia breathed deeply, only then realizing that she had been under her mother's watchful eye for these past three years.<br /> <br /> It wasn't surprising, though. Since her father's death, the Jenkins family had been fragmented. Heather wasn't truly a Jenkins. Although she had been holding the reins, she was surrounded by those eyeing her position. Eventually, Heather had grown accustomed to keeping everything under her control, leaving no stone unturned.<br /> <br /> "It's not possible right now," Cynthia said somewhat helplessly.<br /> <br /> Heather's eyes narrowed as she spoke firmly. "What, you still have feelings for him?"<br /> <br /> "Of course not," Cynthia couldn't help but laugh dryly. "Mom, I just need some time to divorce him. I promise, after the divorce, I will definitely return to the Jenkins family."<br /> <br /> Cynthia mused, why did she ever waste three years pining for Nathan?<br /> <br /> Getting the response she wanted, Heather nodded in satisfaction. "That's more like a Jenkins girl. Also..."<br /> <br /> "What is it?" Seeing Heather hesitating to speak, Cynthia was curious.<br /> <br /> Heather spoke steadily. "The man you slept with at the hotel, do you recall who he is?"<br /> <br /> Cynthia's expression froze, and she remained silent.<br /> <br /> "I'm thinking about finding this man. If he's decent enough, we could welcome him into the family. The Jenkins can certainly afford to support one more. This would also solidify your position in the family."<br /> <br /> What Heather left unsaid was that if the man was not up to her standard, the consequences were obvious.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was at a loss for words. She didn't even know how to argue with that.<br /> <br /> Back in her room, Cynthia lay on the bed, overwhelmed. What happened today was more thrilling than her life during the past three years combined.<br /> <br /> She absently played with the cufflink in her hand, a lone clue left by the mysterious man from the previous night.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Cynthia realized something and sat up abruptly. The cufflink was a limited edition, and her brother, the third sir of the Jenkins, Eric Jenkins, also a leading designer, might know its origin.<br /> <br /> Without hesitation, Cynthia called Eric.<br /> <br /> "Thia, you've finally taken your eyes off that idiot, huh? What's up?" Eric's voice was cheerful over the phone.<br /> <br /> Cynthia couldn't help but smile, "Starting today, Nathan and I have nothing to do with each other. We're getting divorced tomorrow."<br /> <br /> At that moment, in the midst of a major international jewelry show, Eric sat up straight. "What? What on earth happened to make the blind girl finally see the light?"<br /> <br /> Cynthia laughed. "Come on, stop kidding. Are you free right now? I could really use your help. Check your messages. I've sent you a picture. Can you figure out where this thing's from?"<br /> <br /> The next morning, outside the Courthouse, Nathan stood with a stern expression. He arrived on time and had been waiting for two hours without a glimpse of Cynthia.<br /> <br /> His calls went unanswered, and just as his patience was running thin, Cynthia finally arrived.<br /> <br /> She was dressed to the nines, radiant and elegant, a stark contrast to her former self. Nathan almost didn't recognize her at first sight.<br /> <br /> "What now? Getting cold feet about the divorce?" Seeing Cynthia slowly making her appearance, Nathan thought she regretted her decision not to divorce and had dressed up like this to win him back, feeling smug.<br /> <br /> "Getting cold feet? Why do I have to?" Cynthia touched her earring. She had intentionally made Nathan wait outside today.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was certain that Nathan wouldn't leave as long as his goal remained unmet, even if it meant waiting there all day.<br /> <br /> Nathan snorted, "As long as you're willing to help Jessica, we can still be friends."<br /> <br /> "What are you thinking? We're getting divorced and you still think we can be friends?" Cynthia scoffed dismissively. "You know what, Nathan? I've changed my mind. Why should I rely on a man who's after my organs? There are plenty of decent men out there, like that guy from the hotel. I'm quite satisfied with him."<br /> <br /> Even if Nathan had once saved her life, the help she had given him secretly over the past three years was more than enough to settle any debt.<br /> <br /> "Shameless!" Nathan didn't expect Cynthia to change her attitude so quickly, grinding his teeth in anger.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was unapologetic. "And what about you? Let's go. I can hardly wait."<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Half an hour later, the two emerged from the Courthouse. Cynthia held the divorce papers, knowing that from now on, her marriage to Nathan was officially over.<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, my offer is always on the table. When you're ready, you know where to find me," Nathan said, glancing at Cynthia, his words laced with implication.<br /> <br /> He had always thought that Cynthia came from a modest background. The financial security he could provide was something he thought Cynthia couldn't earn in a lifetime.<br /> <br /> Cynthia scoffed, "Dream on, Nathan. That day will never come."<br /> <br /> Nathan was about to respond when his expression suddenly changed. He quickly descended the steps, leaving Cynthia behind.<br /> <br /> "Jessica? What are you doing here?"<br /> <br /> At the foot of the steps, a girl with an innocent appearance and long hair cascading over her shoulders rushed toward them. Her face was ghostly pale. It was Jessica, the one Nathan always held dear.<br /> <br /> In just a few short steps, Jessica was panting.<br /> <br /> Nathan, heart aching, wrapped his arms around Jessica, gently stroking her back to help her catch her breath.<br /> <br /> Cynthia had had enough of their closeness. She was ready to leave then and there.<br /> <br /> "Wait up, Cynthia, please, just a sec," Jessica panted, rushing to intercept Cynthia.<br /> <br /> "Do you need something?" Cynthia asked indifferently, causing Nathan to frown.<br /> <br /> Jessica bit her lip. "I... I'm sorry about Nathan. He's always saying the opposite of what he feels. He really cares about you, you know. The last thing I want is for you guys to split."<br /> <br /> Seeing Jessica's meekness, Nathan felt a twinge of pain. "Jessica, you don't have to apologize for me."<br /> <br /> "Nathan's right. Why do you think you can apologize on his behalf?" Cynthia looked at Jessica, whose facade of innocence was grating on her.<br /> <br /> It's all my fault. He's been tough on you because he's worried about my condition. Can you just let it slide this time? I don't have much time left, and...I really hope there's someone by his side when I'm gone.<br /> <br /> Cynthia smiled, "It seems you're quite aware of your own health condition. You two are really close, right? Then how could you bear to push him towards me?"<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, don't push your luck," Nathan said, his face clouding over.<br /> <br /> Jessica bit her lip. "Nathan and I are just friends. I genuinely wish you two to patch things up."<br /> <br /> "But the divorce is already final," Cynthia said deliberately.<br /> <br /> Jessica quickly suggested. "But if there's a chance, why not consider remarriage?"<br /> <br /> "You're really looking out for us, huh? Do you even believe what you're saying?" Cynthia scoffed. She was done playing along and decided to confront the truth head-on. "You don't want us back together, Jessica. You're worried that if we divorce, Nathan won't be able to control me to get you a kidney transplant in time before finding a new donor. Sorry, but I'm not budging. I won't let you get your way."<br /> <br /> "It's not like that, Cynthia. You've got it all wrong. I would never..." She shook her head vigorously, looking utterly wronged.<br /> <br /> Cynthia smirked. "You may not do it yourself, but you're great at hinting. I believe someone would do it for you."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, this was all my idea. What does it have to do with Jessica? Back off," Nathan said, his expression darkening as he quickly jumped to Jessica's defense.<br /> <br /> Cynthia sneered, "Funny, I didn't even mention a name. But since you care so much for each other, why not make it official? The city hall is just around the corner. Why wait? Go get married today.<br /> <br /> "At least you're his wife when you are gone, Jessica. Isn't that right?"<br /> <br /> Jessica's eyes flickered with unreadable emotion, and she still played innocent. "Cynthia, Nathan and I are really just good friends. I'm getting worse. After years without a matching kidney donor, I've given up hope."<br /> <br /> "So, I'm your only hope, huh? No wonder you're so desperate to having me stay," Cynthia said bluntly, cutting to the heart of the matter.<br /> <br /> Jessica, overwhelmed with frustration and unable to counter Cynthia's relentless words, suddenly collapsed.<br /> <br /> "Jessica, Jessica!" Nathan held her in his arms, calling her name repeatedly, but Jessica showed no response.<br /> <br /> "How convenient to ptootshie out at this moment." Cynthia noted with a smile.<br /> <br /> Nathan glared at Cynthia, scooping Jessica up in his arms, and warned sternly, "If anything happens to Jessica, Cynthia, I'll never forgive you."<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Having said that, Nathan hurriedly carried Jessica to the car and headed for the hospital.<br /> <br /> Cynthia, unfazed, turned and drove towards Richardson Villa to pack her things.<br /> <br /> She had lived in Richardson Villa for three years. Three years ago, she was overjoyed, thinking she had finally found the person from her childhood.<br /> <br /> It was she who had saved Nathan from danger, even daring to bet with Heather and hiding her identity to marry into the Richardson family. She tiptoed through life there, desperately trying to fit in.<br /> <br /> Yet, throughout all those three years, the Richardsons never accepted her as one of them, always leaving her feeling like an outsider no matter how hard she tried.<br /> <br /> Cynthia finally realized that Nathan had been insincere from the start. Reflecting on it now, she just couldn't believe how naive she had been, viewing everything through the rose-colored gltootshiees of her childhood memories.<br /> <br /> Luckily, she had finally woken up. There was no going back to this family for her.<br /> <br /> As she entered the living room, Kelly stood at the top of the stairs, looking down at her with a smug expression.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was not surprised. A month ago, Nathan had brazenly brought the Dixon sisters back to live in Richardson Villa.<br /> <br /> Nathan's mother, Sharon Richardson, had been completely charmed by them, never showing Cynthia any kindness.<br /> <br /> Looking down on Cynthia, Kelly gloated. "Cynthia, you're already divorced from Nathan. Why do you even show your face here?<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, I'm talking to you! Do you think playing deaf and dumb will get you through? Shameless." Kelly stood in the middle of the staircase, arms crossed, saying sternly.<br /> <br /> Cynthia glanced at her indifferently. "You know very well that who's the shameless one. Move aside."<br /> <br /> "What if I don't?" Kelly smirked triumphantly. "You are nothing but a discarded wife, and yet you dare to be arrogant in front of me. If you want me to step aside, beg for it."<br /> <br /> "Kelly, I really admire your reckless courage," Cynthia said with a light laugh. "I haven't even bothered with you yet, and here you are, stepping right into the crosshairs."<br /> <br /> Kelly didn't take Cynthia's words seriously, her eyes filled with scorn. "You think you can intimidate me, Cynthia? Really, what do you think you're capable of?"<br /> <br /> A sharp glint flashed in Cynthia's eyes as she spoke calmly. "A minor actress shamelessly moves into a married man's house, and within a month, the young couple is divorced. I wonder, if this little scandal hits the headlines, how your fans will react. Will they stand by you, or will they turn their backs, dragging your name through the mud?"<br /> <br /> Kelly, a mediocre graduate from a film academy with unremarkable looks and talent, had only managed to carve a niche for herself in showbiz with Nathan's financial support. She was, at best, a second-tier star, and her position in the entertainment world was what she valued most.<br /> <br /> Sure enough, Kelly's face changed drastically at these words. "Cynthia, are you threatening me?"<br /> <br /> "Right, I am threatening you," Cynthia admitted. "Better watch your step with me. If not, I'll make sure this story goes public. You've got plenty of enemies itching for a scoop like this. I wonder how many fans will stick by you after that."<br /> <br /> "You wouldn't dare!" Kelly's face betrayed a flash of panic.<br /> <br /> Cynthia scoffed, "Try me. I've got nothing to hide. You're the one who should be worried, not me. Don't believe me? Go ahead, push your luck!"<br /> <br /> Perhaps it was her tolerance over these past three years that had given these people the audacity to challenge her.<br /> <br /> Having said that, Cynthia pushed past Kelly's shoulder, striding upstairs to her room, leaving Kelly standing there in fury.<br /> <br /> The master room was divided into two parts - a study and a bedroom. Nathan never spent the night in the bedroom, and the study was more like a shared area for the two.<br /> <br /> In less than half an hour, Cynthia had packed her things. After three years, all she had filled was one suitcase and a backpack. Looking at them, she almost wanted to laugh.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, she remembered a pen of hers in the study. As she went in to retrieve it, she noticed a document on the desk.<br /> <br /> Her eyes fell on the paper. It was a bidding proposal from Nathan's company for a project under the Jenkins Group.<br /> <br /> Cynthia almost laughed. In the past, if she had seen this document, she would have secretly helped, arranging for the Jenkins Group to internally fix the bid to help Nathan secure the project.<br /> <br /> But now, seeing the proposal, Cynthia smiled, promising herself to give Nathan a surprise.<br /> <br /> After packing her things, Cynthia, dragging her suitcase, was about to leave when suddenly someone appeared at the door.<br /> <br /> "Don't worry, I'm all packed and I won't be back," Cynthia said indifferently. To her, Nathan had become less significant than a stranger.<br /> <br /> Nathan snorted, "That's it? That's all you have to say?"<br /> <br /> "What more is there between us?" Cynthia couldn't help but laugh. "The fact that you're standing here means Jessica is still alive. Now, if you don't mind, step aside. I'm hurried to move out."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, I never realized how sharp-tongued you could be," Nathan said coldly, staring at the person before him. "Before you leave, you must apologize to Kelly!"<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> "Why should I apologize?" Cynthia released her suitcase, her eyes brimming with mockery. "Really, Nathan? Isn't Jessica enough for you? Or are you trying to have them both?"<br /> <br /> Nathan was close to losing his temper. "What nonsense are you talking about? Kelly is like a sister to me, nothing more!"<br /> <br /> "That's a question you should be asking your dear mother, not me," Cynthia said, uninterested in arguing further.<br /> <br /> Sharon had always favored the Dixon sisters. While Jessica was delicate and often sick, Sharon secretly hoped Kelly would be Nathan's wife. Nathan, however, was completely oblivious to this.<br /> <br /> Nathan took a deep breath, trying to keep his anger in check. He needed to remember why he was here. His voice softened but still carried a hint of superiority. "Listen, Cynthia, I'm here to make a deal with you. If you agree to donate a kidney to Jessica, I'll compensate you."<br /> <br /> "Compensate? How much?" Cynthia's tone was full of mockery, but Nathan, oblivious, thought she was actually considering it.<br /> <br /> "Forty thousand dollars, Cynthia. That's way more than you'd make in years," Nathan said, confident in his proposition, believing that to Cynthia, 40 thousand dollars was a fortune.<br /> <br /> Cynthia burst into uncontrollable laughter, almost crying with mirth.<br /> <br /> Nathan, infuriated and embarrtootshieed, demanded, "What's so funny?"<br /> <br /> It took Cynthia a while to compose herself. She spoke slowly, "Your absurd daydreams, Nathan. And how clueless you are about your own ignorance. Here's my offer. Four million dollars for Kelly's kidney. Convince her. It's way more than she could make in years."<br /> <br /> "Enough! If you want more, just say it. Stop pretending," Nathan said, looking at her as if she were insane.<br /> <br /> Cynthia calmly replied, "Believe it or not, that's your problem. I'll say this one last time. I will never donate a kidney to Jessica. This is it. We're done!"<br /> <br /> With that, she dragged her suitcase past Nathan.<br /> <br /> From behind, Nathan called out confidently. "Cynthia, one day you'll come back to me for money!"<br /> <br /> "In your dreams," Cynthia retorted without turning back just as she was about to leave. Suddenly, a man approached her head-on.<br /> <br /> Their eyes met unexpectedly, and Cynthia was momentarily startled. The man was tall, easily six foot three, with a straight nose and strikingly handsome features. What caught the attention most, however, were his deep eyes that could easily draw someone in without them realizing it.<br /> <br /> This was Nathan's younger uncle, Lawrence Richardson.<br /> <br /> The moment Lawrence saw Cynthia's face clearly, his brow twitched subtly. His look was complex, unreadable, like a sharp sword fixed on her face, shrouded in mystery.<br /> <br /> Cynthia guessed that Lawrence might have overheard her argument with Nathan and was reacting to it. She nodded casually, keeping her cool.<br /> <br /> Within a few seconds, Lawrence masked his emotions, his eyes settling into a serene calmness. They continued walking, merely brushing past each other.<br /> <br /> However, in that brief moment of ptootshieing, Cynthia's expression changed dramatically. Subconsciously, she slowed her pace, her eyes drawn to Lawrence's suit.<br /> <br /> The left sleeve of his gray, tailor-made suit sported a unique sapphire cufflink, exuding a subtle elegance. However, the right sleeve was conspicuously bare, missing its matching piece.<br /> <br /> In an instant, Cynthia felt utterly disheveled, as if a tornado had just swept through her world.<br /> <br /> "Thia, about that thing you asked me to look into, I think I'm onto something." Eric's voice rose teasingly from the other end of the phone, deliberately keeping her in suspense.<br /> <br /> Stopped at a red light, Cynthia sat in her Ferrari, her mind elsewhere. "No need to guess. I've figured it out."<br /> <br /> "Oh, really?" Eric sounded genuinely surprised. "I haven't even told you yet. How did you know?"<br /> <br /> "Just forget about it." Cynthia pressed her temples, weary. "Eric, let's pretend I never asked. Focus on your work. Bye."<br /> <br /> Before Eric could respond, Cynthia reclined in her seat, her head throbbing. The way Lawrence had looked at her earlier made her wonder...if he had recognized her.<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Cynthia couldn't help but feel relieved. Luckily, she was already divorced. Otherwise, bumping into him all the time would've been too awkward to handle.<br /> <br /> Just as she returned to Jenkins Villa, the butler immediately approached her to report that Heather was waiting for her in the upstairs study. Cynthia, with a resigned smile, handed her things over to a servant and made her way upstairs.<br /> <br /> "Back already?" Heather, surrounded by a mountain of papers, glanced up and gave a small nod. "Everything sorted?"<br /> <br /> Cynthia smiled freely, "I've got the divorce papers, and all my stuff is moved back. There's no need for further contact."<br /> <br /> She sat down in front of Heather's desk, tentatively starting the conversation. "Mom, I heard the Jenkins Group is starting the bidding process for the project in the Grimes Group? Have we made a decision yet?"<br /> <br /> Heather looked up, her stern gaze softening a bit as she scrutinized Cynthia. "The bidding is set for next week. So far, we haven't found the right fit yet. What's got you interested all of a sudden?<br /> <br /> "Right, you said before that after the divorce, you would return to the Jenkins Group and take over my place. Are you ready to step up now?" Heather reminded her again.<br /> <br /> Cynthia smiled wryly, "Running the Jenkins Group can wait a bit. I've been out of the game for three years. Jumping in headfirst might just show off my rust. I'm thinking of starting with the Grimes Group project, you know, to get my feet wet. Gotta ease into it."<br /> <br /> "Why bother with all that? You've got the talent," Heather disagreed, confident in Cynthia's abilities.<br /> <br /> Cynthia felt somewhat helpless but still stood her ground. "We need to let the old guard get used to the idea. If I swoop in right after coming back, who knows how many troubles they might throw in my way. Even if I can handle it, it's still a htootshiele."<br /> <br /> Heather looked at her for a long moment before giving in. "Alright, have it your way. But get up to speed fast. I can't hold off for long."<br /> <br /> "Okay, I won't let you down," Cynthia said with a slight smile, her gaze drifting to the scenery outside the window.<br /> <br /> In the VIP ward of the rehabilitation hospital, all the nurses knew Jessica in Room 5 had a super devoted boyfriend. But inside that room, the truth was a whole other story.<br /> <br /> "Nathan, don't be so impulsive. Cynthia's a good girl, really. You should be nicer to her." Jessica leaned against the headboard, her face ghostly pale.<br /> <br /> Nathan strongly disagreed, "Jessica, don't be fooled by her. Remember what she did to you? And how she spoke to Kelly? She's just a troublemaker, trust me."<br /> <br /> Jessica smiled gently, placing her hand on Nathan's back. "She just cares too much about you. Look, my body... It's not great. You should focus on your life, not mine.<br /> <br /> "I want you two to get back together. Let her be there for you. That way, I can go peacefully, knowing you're not alone."<br /> <br /> "Jessica..." Nathan's heart sank as he looked at her, her selflessness only deepening his pain. "Don't say that. We're going to beat this, okay?"<br /> <br /> Jessica's eyes were downcast as she feigned nonchalance. "At this point, unless we find a kidney that matches, there's no hope. Please, I don't want you to be worried about me anymore."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia's a match. Leave it to me, I'll talk to her," Nathan said confidently.<br /> <br /> Jessica quickly shook her head. "Don't push her, okay? If she's not up to it, I won't accept it either."<br /> <br /> "You're just too kind..." Nathan became even more determined to get Cynthia's agreement. He was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang.<br /> <br /> "hecko, is this Mr. Nathan Richardson from the Richardson Group? This is the Jenkins Group. We've gone through your proposal, and our head would like to talk with you one on one.<br /> <br /> Nathan was overjoyed upon hearing this. Getting along with the Jenkins could elevate his status in the Richardson family.<br /> <br /> He mouthed "the Jenkins Group" to Jessica, who also looked pleasantly surprised.<br /> <br /> "Can you do this afternoon?" The person from the Jenkins Group had already set the time.<br /> <br /> Nathan hesitated as he looked at Jessica's beautiful yet pale face. "This afternoon?" He had promised to spend the entire day with Jessica.<br /> <br /> The ward fell silent. Noticing Nathan's hesitation, Jessica smiled and waved her hand, signaling him not to worry about her and to quickly agree. Urged by Jessica, Nathan awkwardly consented.<br /> <br /> He hung up the phone, his expression clouded. "Jessica, I..."<br /> <br /> Jessica spoke with understanding. "Come on, you've been working so hard on this project, and now you've got a chance you just can't ptootshie up."<br /> <br /> "But I promised to spend the whole day with you today," Nathan said, his brow furrowing with guilt.<br /> <br /> "Don't be silly, I'll be fine, and Kelly will come over this afternoon," Jessica said, her eyes glistening. "How about this? If you feel guilty, make it up to me by spending all day with me tomorrow."<br /> <br /> Nathan's heart softened. "Okay, I'll also come over early tonight. Just take care of yourself, okay?"<br /> <br /> Once Nathan left, Jessica watched his retreating figure, a complex emotion hidden in her eyes.<br /> <br /> The Jenkins Group towered in the heart of the bustling city center, occupying an entire office building. Nathan, full of ambition, walked in, trying to calm his emotions, determined to present his best self in the upcoming meeting.<br /> <br /> A staff member knocked and led him into the reception room.<br /> <br /> Behind the wooden desk, the rotating chair was turned away from the door. The project manager, with her back to him, tapped her left hand lightly on the desk, casting a silent but palpable tension in the air.<br /> <br /> Nathan hadn't felt this nervous in a long time. He steadied his nerves and put on a composed smile. "hecko, I'm Nathan from the Richardson Group. We have an appointment this morning. Here is the Richardson Group's proposal for the Grimes Group project."<br /> <br /> A moment ptootshieed, and then a clear, confident voice answered, "Mr. Richardson, pleased to meet you." As the chair swiveled around, Nathan finally saw the project manager's face. At that moment, his eyes widened in surprise.<br /> <br /> ..............................................................................<br /> Nathan blurted out without thinking, "Cynthia?"<br /> <br /> "What?" Cynthia's expression was cold, her brows slightly furrowed.<br /> <br /> Nathan finally got a good look at her.<br /> <br /> Cynthia was clad in a sharp white suit, and her short chestnut hair framed her face, exuding a sense of authority.<br /> <br /> "Sorry, my mistake. Thought you were someone else," Nathan quickly apologized, swiftly denying his initial thought. He didn't think that this woman, with such control over her surroundings, could be Cynthia.<br /> <br /> Yet, her face resembled Cynthia's so closely.<br /> <br /> "Is that so?" Cynthia responded indifferently. "Enough for the small talk, let's discuss your proposal, shall we?" She got straight into the point.<br /> <br /> Nathan, not lacking in professional skills, quickly engaged in the conversation, explaining his planning concepts in detail. Cynthia interjected occasionally with her opinions and pointed out potential problems in implementation, asking Nathan for solutions.<br /> <br /> The two of them conversed back and forth, thoroughly enjoying their discussion.<br /> <br /> "I'll take the Richardson Group proposal into careful consideration," Cynthia stated, neatly wrapping up their conversation.<br /> <br /> Nathan felt a thrill of hope at the prospect of collaboration.<br /> <br /> As their business talk concluded, Nathan couldn't help but take a few more glances at her. Driven by an inexplicable urge, he blurted out, "Do you happen to know a woman named Cynthia?"<br /> <br /> After the question, Nathan immediately regretted it, wishing he could take back his words.<br /> <br /> He was about to change the subject when Cynthia's next statement wiped the smile off his face.<br /> <br /> "Cynthia? I'm quite familiar with her."<br /> <br /> Observing Nathan's transformation from shock to utter disbelief, Cynthia chuckled internally while maintaining her apparent composure. "Surprised?"<br /> <br /> "I just didn't expect that you would actually know her," Nathan replied, staring at the woman who bore a striking resemblance to Cynthia yet with a distinctly different vibe. He couldn't help but wonder if there were really two people so similar in this world.<br /> <br /> He was filled with confusion, unable to fathom how Cynthia, with her humble background, could be connected to a project manager of the Jenkins Group.<br /> <br /> He was about to ask for details when Cynthia interjected coldly, "Mr. Richardson, let's end it here for today. I've gone over your proposal. I'll get back to you with my decision after the seminar. I've got several other meetings lined up."<br /> <br /> Since she had said that, and Nathan was no slouch at picking up cues, he quickly stood up and humbly said, "Then I'll look forward to hearing from you. I'll get going now."<br /> <br /> "Take care."<br /> <br /> As Nathan left, Cynthia sneered. She couldn't help but find amusement in Nathan's hesitant, almost fearful demeanor.<br /> <br /> Finishing her work at the office, she decided it was time to head home.<br /> <br /> In the underground parking lot, Cynthia was searching for her car with the key in hand.<br /> <br /> She hadn't walked far when she suddenly noticed someone standing not far away. The moment their eyes met, Cynthia's smile froze.<br /> <br /> The man was tall, strikingly handsome, and it was none other than Lawrence!<br /> <br /> Cynthia's mouth twitched as she forced composure, averting her gaze and steeling herself as she located her car.<br /> <br /> Pretending not to recognize him, she tried to get in her car and leave. Suddenly, the sound of approaching footsteps froze her in place. A few seconds later, Lawrence stood in front of her car, halting her movements completely. Cynthia could feel the stare.<br /> <br /> Taking a deep breath, Cynthia turned around, offering a polite smile, "Mr. Richardson, is there something you need?"<br /> <br /> Although Lawrence was Nathan's uncle, the two had actually only met once at Cynthia and Nathan's wedding three years ago. Cynthia had no idea why he would want to see her now.<br /> <br /> Lawrence stood there silently, his gaze so penetrating that it alarmed Cynthia.<br /> <br /> Just as she started to suspect he had seen through her, Lawrence smiled faintly, "Your car is blocking the way."<br /> <br /> It was only then that Cynthia noticed her vehicle was parked right behind a sleek Jaguar.

Commemorating a life from 1888 to 1944.	Antique Crucifix probably Mid Century, mid to late forties. Commemorating a life from 1888 to 1944. - $175.00<br /> <br /> This rare Wooden Crucifix, is a wonderful example of a timeless symbol of Grace, Faith and Elegance. This one is from Canada and beloved the Mrs. John Hutnik, born in 1888 and left this world in 1944. The rich aged wood stands as a tribute to a woman who lived through the era that shaped the world as we know it today, but, sadly did not get to see the end of the global war. <br /> <br /> This piece of history measures 16” high and 8” wide. The details are many and the craftsmanship, very detailed. This decorative item was clearly a cherished family heirloom and could resume that role. It has its original hoop on the back with a recessed hole so as to lie flat against the wall. <br /> <br /> Not only is it decorative, but would make a very unique addition to the collector. The body is cast, I believe in resin. There is a slight seam from having been cast, but not very noticeable. This piece is completely unmolested, and I offer it up this way because, while I have some respect for all of the original patina possible, others may wish to guild it in gold or silver. <br /> <br /> The scale is perfect and the articulation of the feet, and loin cloth are as good as I’ve seen. The halo is definitely deco influenced and held in place with small brads. No missing pieces at all. <br /> <br /> #antique #CorpusChristi #vintagetreasure #Crucifix #Timeless elegance<br /> Facebook Marketplace	BUY_NOW	https://facebook.com/marketplace/item/430264882668	104182891057596	Ed Kelly	/marketplace/?seller_profile=100002585533323	0	1	1,095,890,751,696,961	2024-04-28 02:00	regular_page	eligible	NONE	0	1	1	Buy now	Ed Kelly	6564763941656		NONE	image		https://facebook.com/marketplace/item/430264882668419/	2024-04-28 10:55		regular_page	1	Ed Kelly	https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/440321655_322844637493296_4424499804164735491_n.jpg?_nc_cat=108&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=JE9vdofDnPUAb7GjTI3&_nc_ht=scontent-lax3-1.xx&oh=00_AfCPRAqZ36_nVw1ghcwchy3XseCHXURUYmrxtu0HRI003w&oe=6634B12F	1	3	Ed Kelly	2024-04-28 02:00	View Edit Delete

I said, "Because I am leaving you."<br /> "No, you are not leaving me," he yelled.<br /> "I saw you earlier, sleeping with another woman, in what should have been our bed. It was what I needed to see that you were a controlling prick our whole relationship. So, yes, I am leaving you," I responded calmly, turning and hitting send.<br /> He growled, "You are not leaving me! I bet you think this because you are cheating on me. Who is he? Show me who you were sending a text too just now."<br /> "Get off of me," I yelled, trying to push him away from me.<br /> "Who is he," spitting as he shouted, pulling my hair harder.<br /> —<br /> Eilith's POV-<br /> I returned home, thinking I would be able to have a nice relaxing bath, and then maybe plan a nice romantic dinner for myself and Dylan, if he is home from the football match early enough. It wasn't something we often did at home. I thought it would be a nice change. I love to cook, but he prefers to eat out at lavish places. He is the type to love to flaunt his wealth. Those plans were soon dashed...<br /> I entered my flat quietly, just in case Dylan was still asleep, which is how I left him this morning when I left to visit my grandparents. What I saw in front of me stopped me in my tracks. My mind went blank. In that moment, I almost forgot to breathe.<br /> I somehow managed to get the front door closed behind me quietly. When I turned around, I focused more on what was going one even though I was already beginning to understand what was going on, and honestly it didn't feel real. It didn't feel like it was happening to me.<br /> A cooked breakfast that had been made and eaten by two was left on my dining table. Romantic music played on the radio. I couldn't quite hear it; I think because this whole thing felt like an out of body experience. I could not believe my eyes; Dylan had never once done anything like this for me. He would never cook for me, I think he even joked that it was a woman's job once, but he was drunk and with friends, so I never took it to heart. Yet he would do it for a woman, who was not his girlfriend.<br /> I felt pain in my chest, that spread up my throat choking me. I knew I would not be able to say anything to him, but I had to know, was he really cheating on me?<br /> I quietly walked further into my flat, towards my bedroom, almost tripping over his shirt that lay discarded on the floor. It was not the only article of clothing strewn across the floor. There was some woman's clothing on the floor too. Judging by the size the woman had to be a supermodel or something. The clothing was so small. It had to be the smallest size you could get here in the UK for women.<br /> I suddenly felt so insecure, because that size of clothing would never fit me now, it did when I was in my late teens, but not now.<br /> I arrived at my bedroom, but I made sure to remain hidden out of sight. Thankfully the door was open a little bit, so I could see everything. I could hear his distinct grunts and moans, as well as the moans of another woman.<br /> I peered through the small crack in the door and saw him having intercourse with another woman in my bed. His back was to me, so he didn't notice that I had seen what he was doing. The woman looked like a supermodel to me, but I really couldn't see her very well, except for a little bit of her blonde hair that was spread across the sheets. I didn't know her, but a hatred grew in my heart almost straight away for her.<br /> I could feel my eyes well with tears, as my hand covered my mouth. I could not stay here any longer, my voice was all but gone. I couldn't stay there to speak with him, let alone look at him right now. Not to mention, I know he has a temper when someone confronts him, it has happened before when we were out, but it has never been aimed at me before. Something I was always scared of happening. How could he do this to me, after everything I had done for him? How could he cheat on me after all these years? Has he been cheating on me this whole time? Could I really forgive him if he made promises? I just needed to get out of here for now.<br /> So, I left, as quietly and quickly as I could. I didn't want him to know that I had seen him, because I could not deal with the confrontation right now, and his excuses and temper.<br /> <br /> I knew I had to start packing everything that I had to take. I pulled out my list and got to work. I headed to the safe, I kept hidden in the bedroom. I unlocked it, and took out my passport, my mother's jewellery box, and the folder I kept important letters and documents in. I shoved them in my handbag, which thankfully was large enough to hold all of it. I grabbed my suitcases out of my wardrobe. I had two sizes a large one and a cabin one. I opened both, leaving them on the floor. I quickly yanked some of my clothing off the hangers and threw them in the suitcase. I emptied my drawers of clothing and just threw them in my suitcase. I chucked in my favourite pairs of shoes. I grabbed my electronics that I wanted to take. Though I could buy replacement electronics, and I probably will once I get settled in, I need to be able to keep a line of communication open with my grandparents and so I can get a new job in London. I grabbed whatever else I could.<br /> I looked at the time and saw a text from Kelly. She had managed to leave work an hour early, and Josh had picked her up. They were on their way to me. I suddenly had this feeling like someone was behind me. I typed HOD into a text before I turned around. Dylan was standing in the doorway to what was our bedroom. He had his hands clenched into fists by his legs. A rage in his eyes that I have never seen before, far worse than all the other times he was angry.<br /> "Why are you packing all your things," he hissed, through gritted teeth.<br /> I took a deep breath, with my finger over the button, readying to hit send. I said, "Because I am leaving you."<br /> "No, you are not leaving me," he yelled.<br /> "I saw you earlier, sleeping with another woman, in what should have been our bed. It was what I needed to see that you were a controlling prick our whole relationship. So, yes, I am leaving you," I responded calmly, turning and hitting send.<br /> His heavy footsteps thunder towards me, making the floor of our flat shake. His hand tangled into my hair, and yanked my head back, before snatching my phone from my hand. Thankfully, I locked it before he could read my texts. He growled, "You are not leaving me! I bet you think this because you are cheating on me. Who is he? Show me who you were sending a text too just now."<br /> "Get off of me," I yelled, trying to push him away from me.<br /> "Who is he," spitting as he shouted, pulling my hair harder.<br /> I pushed him away from me. It surprised him enough to let go of my hair and to stumble backwards away from me, I screamed, "I never cheated. You did. You have restricted me, banned me, belittled me, and treated me harshly on countless occasions. My heart is broken. How I could ever love a man like you, I do not know."<br /> Tears welled in my eyes, so I turned around and began to zip up my suitcases. I didn't want to see his reaction to what I said, I couldn't deal with him if he started crying. I really might faulter if that happens. That was when I felt something hard hit the back of my head. My head began to pound and ache. I gripped where he hit me on my head with my hand and turned to look at Dylan. But before I could say anything, he raised his fist and slammed it into my face. The blow was hard enough, to knock me backwards into the bedside cabinet. I hit my head on the corner of the bedside cabinet, before hitting the floor. I could feel a wet hot liquid slide across my face. I touched it and looked at my hand. It was blood. I was bleeding from my head. I gripped my head and began to curl up into the fetal position. Before I could curl up, Dylan kicked me in the stomach and ribs, not just once, but many times. I lost count how many times he kicked me. I felt something crack in my rib cage. I tried my best to use my arms to protect my body and head, but there was only so much I could do, while in so much pain. The pain was excruciating. All I could do was cry and whimper the pain made it too hard to move. He grabbed my hair on the back of my head, tearing some hair from my head, and snarled, "If you hadn't threatened to leave, then none of this would have happened. Do you want to know why I sleep with other girls, because after all the times we have slept with each other, you were never ready for what I needed to be full satisfied. But now you are going to find out. Remember this is all your fault."<br /> He slammed my head into the ground. The impact made my head heavy and made it hard for me to keep myself conscious. My ears were now ringing from the impact. It was because of that, that I did not hear what he was doing. The ringing subsided, only for me to hear a massive crack, and a shocking sting across my back, which made me cry out. I managed to look up and see that he was holding a whip. He hit me with a whip. I was now seeing a completely different side to him, a side that would have made me run for the hills years ago. How did I not see this side to him?<br /> "This is what I like," he growled, lust evident in his voice.<br /> I tried my best to move, to get away. But I was in so much pain. The sound of the crack of the whip came again, just before the impact on my back. I screamed out. This time it was even more painful. The taste of blood filled my mouth, as I felt a trickle of blood pooling on my back. Tears were streaming down my face. I was trying to prepare myself for another blow. But that was when I heard the sirens. In that moment, I had never felt so happy to hear sirens before. Dylan dropped the whip, and muttered.<br /> That was when he bolted out of the door. I breathed a sigh of relief, even though my chest hurt so much. Pain was all over my body. My head and back were the most painful. With my head hurt, it was getting harder for me to stay awake my consciousness was wavering. My eyes closing slowly, the pain becoming unbearable.<br /> I listened, carefully, despite my failing consciousness. I knew Kelly had to be here with Josh and the police. I heard yelling but it was all too far for me to be able to hear exactly what was said. A moment later a police officer came through the door, closely followed by Kelly and Josh. The police officer said into his radio, "I need paramedics up here now. Charge that man these two told us to arrest. Charge him the GBH. I also need a large evidence bag."<br /> Kelly and Josh rushed to myside, as Kelly said, "I should have gotten off work soon, so we could have been here sooner. Eilith, I am sorry."<br /> She gripped my hand and squeezed it. I wheezed, "Don't be sorry."<br /> "Eilith, can you tell me where it hurts," Josh said.<br /> "Are you a paramedic," the police officer asked.<br /> Josh shook his head, "I am a boxer, training for the Olympics, I have first aid training, so I can help until the paramedics get here."<br /> My eyes began to feel heavy. My head was pounding so much that it was getting hard to stay awake. Josh gripped my hand, and said, "Eilith, you need to stay awake. I can see your head injury. I can tell you have a chest injury, by your breathing. Try to keep your breaths slow and gentle."<br /> "What did he do to her," Kelly sobbed.<br /> "He struck her in the head two times, punched her in the face, kicked her several times in the stomach and chest, and finally he hit her with that whip over there," Josh said.<br /> "How can you tell that? Did you witness it," the policeman said.<br /> Josh shook his head, as I wheezed, "He is right, but he didn't see."<br /> "Eilith, don't talk until the paramedics get here. Try to rest, but keep your eyes open," Josh said.<br /> My consciousness began slipping. It went black for a few seconds, but Kelly and Josh's calls for me to wake up, snapped me out of it. My consciousness returned long enough for the paramedics to get here, and get an oxygen mask on me, get IV fluids going, and get me on to the stretcher that they had brought with them. I was finding it hard to stay awake. When the paramedics were dealing with me, I noticed Kelly grabbing my handbag, and a few pieces of clothing for me. She even pulled her phone out and began snapping images of my wounds and the whip, and the police that were present. I wasn't sure why, but I would certainly have to ask why she did such a thing.<br /> Conversations between those around me started to sound different. It was getting hard to try a remain awake. The paramedics moved me out of the room and into the ambulance. I guess Matthew had told Kelly to get in the ambulance with me, because she was there with me.<br /> "Drive fast, and radio ahead to the hospital," one paramedic said to the other.<br /> "Is it really that bad," Kelly asked.<br /> "Yes and no. The head wound is the most concerning. But she is fighting. Last time I saw a wound like that, the person couldn't keep their eyes open, but she is trying her hardest. She may need a few stitches on the wounds on her back. She will need x-rays and I suspect an MRI," the paramedic said.<br /> I could feel the ambulance moving fast, weaving in and out of other cars. My pain was only intensifying. The blaring sirens were not helping my head any, it only intensified the pain. But we soon arrived at the hospital, where I was given pain relief. Doctors and nurses flooded around me and began seeing to my injuries. I think I saw Kelly talking with a doctor and the paramedics. I was taken for an emergency x-ray. Then my wounds were treated, some required stitches, but others just required antiseptic treatment and a sterile medical pad and bandages. I was then taken for an MRI, to check the damage done to my skull and my brain. Only then was I taken to a hospital room, and told the results of my x-rays and MRI, by my doctor.<br /> "Hello, Miss Clarke, I am Doctor Ward. I have looked at your x-rays and MRI results. I can say you have no intracranial bleeding from the blows you sustained to your head. But I would like to keep you here for a couple days to ensure that your head injury only improves. You have a very bad concussion, we just want to make sure you don't get any bleeding on your brain, given the fact you lost consciousness a few times, it is best we keep an eye on you. You do have a few cracked ribs as well, but with proper rest, you should recover from them easily. Do not do any strenuous activities, especially after you leave here. Or, your ribs could snap and puncture your lungs, so make sure to take it easy. Try not to move too much, as you have had to have stitches in your back. They should heal quickly as long as you keep them clean. We will put new dressings on them tomorrow and again on your last day here. Before you leave in a couple days, we will do another MRI to be safe, and make sure you haven't developed any bleeding," he explained.<br /> "Thank you, Doctor Ward. Did you explain this to my friend who came with me," I cleared my throat.<br /> "You are welcome. As they were only friends, I was not able to reveal details, but I am happy to explain it to them before I send them in. A nurse will come around with antibiotics and more pain relief in a couple of hours, but if you are in too much pain, please call them for aid. Also, there are police officers and friends of yours outside waiting for you, should I send them in," he asked.<br /> I nodded, "I know my friends will be worried sick, so please tell them before you send them in, and I know the police officers will want my statement and I expect details of my injuries from you."<br /> "You remember what happened," he inquired.<br /> "Yes, I do," I responded.<br /> "That is very surprising, but a very good sign. Many will head injuries like yours will forget all sorts of different things. Do you mind telling me what happened? I know you have been beaten very badly," he questioned.<br /> "My ex-boyfriend, I tried to leave him because I found him cheating earlier today, so I tried to leave. He found me packing, and attacked me," I replied.<br /> "Alright, I will add that to my medical report. I do suggest that maybe you speak with a psychologist, while you are here, I can send one to you tomorrow morning, if you would like, because you need to get some rest first," he said.<br /> "That will be okay, I know I should speak with one," I whispered.<br /> "I will get on that now. I will send in your friends, and the police," he smiled, before turning and heading for the door.<br /> I was left alone with my thoughts, for a few moments. I couldn't help but think that Dylan will not leave me alone. Something told me that he may know about who I really am, which is part of the reason he did not want to let me go. But he has cheated on me and put me here in a hospital bed, I have never been more certain than anything in my life. I will leave him and do everything I can to stay away from him. I just had to hope that the police are not as corrupt as people make them out to be, and actually make sure that Dylan goes to jail for this.

But finally, Lexie tortured me, Adam killed me.<br /> This time is only about me and about surviving, so screw you Lexie Banks, Adam Hawkins and Red Blood Pack!

I say again trying to support myself in my arms as I am kneeled on the ground of my cell.<br /> "What harm have I ever done to be treated like this?"<br /> But Bill throws me a furious gaze:<br /> "You know what you have done!" and out of nowhere another whip comes on my back ripping my flesh.<br /> "Kelly..."I whisper to my wolf and my head falls between my arms hitting the ground.<br /> "Kelly it hurts too much..." and my tears started to flow on my cheeks even if I tried, I really tried to resist and be brave but I can't do it anymore so I lean on the floor.<br /> "Can you help me, Kelly? Can you heal me?" I ask my wolf.<br /> "I want to, Natalie" she groans in pain.<br /> "but I can't do it anymore. I am too weak. He is beating us for hours" andI can hear her howls. She is begging the gods for help. Where is my Goddess right now? I don't deserve this.<br /> "Please" I whisper and try again to lift my head.<br /> "What is going on, Bill? Whatever is happening here you must know that it is just a misunderstanding. " and I placed my head on the ground so I could watch him as I spoke to him.<br /> "You fooled!" Bill growls at me.<br /> "You made us think that you are a good woman but you are just a malicious woman with no heart" and he lifts his arm in the air to hit me again.<br /> I know I can't escape from this. He even gave me wolfsbane so I could become weak and submit to him. I have no chance. I have no power in this.<br /> "I swear to you, Bill" I say in a whisper "I have no idea what are you talking about.."<br /> "Then how is it that her pup is dead,huh?" Bill asks and slaps me hard over my face "How is that our little Alpha is dead?"<br /> WHAT? What little Alpha? Who is dead?<br /> "Don't look at me as if you have no idea what is going on!" he says and slaps me. "You killed Lexie's baby! Our pack's heir!"<br /> Lexie's unborn pup is dead?<br /> "I didn't do it!" I scream with all the strength that was left in me. I would never do that!<br /> "I didn't touch her! It is not my fault if she aborted her pup!" I tell him and now my heart started to beat faster and faster.<br /> You might think that there is a problem,talking about another woman's pup as the pack's heir as I am Luna and the legal wife of Adam Hawkins, the Alpha of Red Blood Pack but there is more than that.<br /> I may be his Luna, but I am infertile and for three years all he wanted was to have an heir. And his fated mate gave it to him what I couldn't.<br /> I have no idea why the Moon Goddess made me infertile, but this is the way I am.<br /> But why are they accusing me of killing her pup? I have nothing to do with that.<br /> "Stop looking at me like that!" Bill suddenly growls, making me come back from my thoughts. "Stop looking at me as if you are innocent!"<br /> And I close my eyes in horror as I see the whip coming in my direction again but before he could touch me, the door opens and a hard growl comes from the frame door.<br /> "For the goddess's name, what have you done, Bill?"<br /> "What it was told to me. I made her pay for her crimes!" Bill says but in the next second he is pushed away from me by Philip McNeil, our beta. I can barely see Bill because of the blood that flows down my face, but he falls to the ground close to me.<br /> But what is making my soul jump is the scent of Adam. He is here, he will trust me. He knows me and he loves me. He knows that I would never do what Bill is accusing me. I try to look at him but before I could do it, Philip growls at Bill.<br /> "Who do you think you are to punish her? She deserves a trial. Until then no one can say if she is guilty or not!" Phillip tells him in a harsh voice,and kneels next to and looks at my wounds.<br /> "Get out of here, Bill, and don't show up again or I am strangling you for abusing your Luna!" he commands Bill.<br /> "She is not my Luna anymore!" Bill growls but he listens to Phillip and leaves my cell, leaving me alone with Adam and Philip. But why is Adam silent?<br /> "What have you done, Natalie?" Phillip whispers, looking at me with sadness.<br /> "I...did...nothing" I whisper and try to look into his eyes but I am way too weak, so I turn my face to Adam, and try to reach his gaze, but he looks at me with hatred.<br /> "Adam..."I whisper.<br /> "Lexie says that you did it" Phillip tells me and now my heart stops, but Philip's voice is not harsh anymore. He is talking to me calmly. "Everything is against you, Natalie."<br /> I look at Adam. He can't believe this. No,no, no. He must trust me, I just found out about Lexie's pup. How can I prove to them that I didn't do it?<br /> Who is gone say for me in front of Adam?<br /> Rosie!<br /> My omega must know that I wasn't in Lexie's room. She was with me all the time. She must help me. She is my only chance.<br /> "Adam" I say and this time I opened my eyes and looked directly into my mate's eyes "Please, talk with Rosie Walker. She knows that I didn't do it. She is my servant. She will stay by my side and tell you the truth. I would never touch an innocent pup, Adam. I am not that kind of person" and I burst into tears again.<br /> "I didn't do it!" I almost screamed,freaking out for the first time since this madness started.<br /> But before I could add something else the voice that I loved the most in this world mocks me hard as if he never loved me, as if I am his biggest enemy.<br /> "There is no need to tell me anything " Adam, my Alpha, my chosen mate and my husband says. "I already know what you did."<br /> What? No, this can't happen.<br /> "Love, I would never..." but the moment I said that his face became dark and coming in my direction he made me almost jump in fear.<br /> "Don't hurt me!" I screamed in horror,trying to hug my knees, and come in a fetal position as an attempt to defend myself from his hit, but my action shocked him.<br /> "What are you doing, Adam?" Phillip asks him and looks at me with strange eyes.<br /> "You are asking me that?" Adam asks furious and he is using his alpha command on him. "How do you dare to question me for this dog?" and the moment his words came out, Kelly's howls started to become louder and louder in my head. He hates us. He doesn't believe us.<br /> "Is not about betrayal, Adam" Phillip tells him "Is about giving her a chance to explain herself, to defend herself if there is something that was not spoken until now."<br /> Adam looks at me and I grab my wounded arms and wrap them around my body. I feel so cold, as the blood is flowing out of my system.<br /> "She will die soon, if you don't stop this madness" Phillip says, looking at me and that made Adam flinch. Maybe there are still a few emotions, a gram of love in his heart that it is destined for me.<br /> "I didn't do it" I whisper, trying my luck.<br /> "I would never hurt you this way, Adam"<br /> I say.<br /> I would never do that. He must know that.<br /> "But yet you did it!" Adam says in the end with some remorse in his gaze and turns his head in another direction as if he can't look at my wounded body anymore.<br /> "You were jealous of Lexie. I told you that she would never take your Luna position, but I need her to procreate. And you? What have you done? You worked on my back out of jealousy!"<br /> "I trusted you, Adam. There was no need to hurt her. I trusted you" I say and using all my strength I kneel and try to get on my feet.<br /> "You are lying!" He says turning around and pointing his index finger in my direction, looking at me with bloody eyes but I can't be weak. I need to beg him to listen to me.<br /> "You hurt my mate!" he growls at me "The mother of my pup!"<br /> His mate? HIS MATE? I can't do this anymore.<br /> "If she is your mate, what am I, Adam?" I asked him without even flinching because everything started to become clear. He loves her too even if he said he doesn't. But my question took him by surprise, because he just stares at me as if he has no idea how to answer that.<br /> "If you ever loved me even for a second"<br /> I tell him and look directly into his eyes.<br /> "I beg you, bring my servant here. Rosie knows my actions. She was with me almost all the time. She will be my witness."<br /> He is staring at me and he is doubting me.<br /> "Man she may..."Phillip starts but he is interrupted by a soft woman's voice.<br /> "She is right" and Adam turns around and almost runs to the door.<br /> "What are you doing here, Lexie?" he asks with a scared voice. "You should rest after everything you've suffered."<br /> "I wanted to see, Natalie," she whispers with the same soft voice. "I wanted to ask her why she did it".<br /> "Because she was jealous!" Adam explains to her and pulls her into his arms, making me and Kelly surfer. He marked me, he must know that he makes me suffer.<br /> "She said that she has a witness," Lexie tells him. "Maybe she is right, maybe it is all a misunderstanding" and my heart stopped.<br /> "Something is not right, Nat" Kelly whispers. "Is she defending us? Why would she do that?"<br /> "Bring her servant here" Lexie tells Adam ."I want to know if she wasn't the one who put poison in my food to abort our sweet and innocent pup." and my heart is not beating anymore.<br /> Is he going to give me a chance to defend myself? Is he going to save me from this madness? But why is Lexie helping me?<br /> "Are you sure?" he asks Lexie, without looking at me and she just nods,looking at him with puppy eyes.<br /> "I will give only one more chance,Natalie" Adam says and leaves Lexie's embrace. "For the sake of our past together" and looking at Phillip commands him.<br /> "Bring Rosie Walkers here"<br /> He did it. He gave us another chance..<br /> Even if it was not for us but for Lexie's sake, at least I have a chance to explain myself.<br /> "Did you ask for me, Alpha?" Rosie says and looking at me she lost her colors.<br /> "Luna!" she screams in horror, as she tries to reach me, but Adam stops her.<br /> "Leave her!" and using his Alpha command asks her.<br /> "Tell me the truth, Rosie. Is Natalie guilty or not for my unborn pup's death?" and that question made Rosie stop in her tracks. She is all shivering and bursts into tears.<br /> "What is going on?" I ask myself. What is with her reaction?<br /> "I command you to talk!" Adam growls at her and she looks at me and gives me devilish grin.<br /> "I am so sorry Alpha!" she busted in tears.<br /> Sorry for what? What is going on?<br /> "She forced me to do it, Alpha!" Rosie says and now I am really dead.<br /> "I didn't want to but she forced me."<br /> And Rosie kneels in front of Adam. "She used her Luna command on me and I was forced to submit to her! She commanded me to poison your fated mate!"<br /> "I never used my Luna command on anyone!" I tell him but Adam turns around and slaps me. "Please, love, please believe me!" I beg him, crying my heart out. "You know me since I was two, I would never do that!" and I grab his leg but Adam just kicks me to the ground.<br /> "Don't touch me!" he growls at me.<br /> "I love you, Adam. I would never..." but he turns his back to me and grabbing Lexie's hand he commands Phillip.<br /> "Prepare everything. Tomorrow I will execute her!"<br /> "You can't do that!" I growl at him. "This is a set up!" but he just left, dragging Lexie after him.<br /> "Just a moment," she says. "I need to ask her something." she excuses herself.<br /> "I am not leaving you alone with a criminal" Adam says and let me tell you.<br /> He is the criminal here, because he is killing me with his actions.<br /> "She can't hurt me anymore" Lexie tells him and gives him a nod. "Not now when I know the truth. Please" she begs him with her fake soft voice.<br /> "I will give you five minutes and if you are not in bed, Lexie, I swear to the goddess that I am going to beat you."<br /> he commands her but she just smiles and pecks his cheek.<br /> "I promise, my Alpha"<br /> Kelly growls "She is doing it on purpose!" and she would like to transform and kill Lexie, but she can't even heal me.<br /> "So?" Lexie asks me as soon as we are alone. "How is it to lose everything?"and she starts to laugh like crazy.<br /> "Why are you staring at me like this?"<br /> she asks me, mocking me. "You were such an easy target," she says,wrapping her arms at her chest."<br /> "You framed me out!" I told her while I supported myself on a wall so I could sit on my feet. "This is your work" I say and I know that I am right and for the first time in my life, my heart is full of hatred. I hate Lexie Banks. At this moment I even hate Adam for not believing in me, for hurting me so badly.<br /> "Of course it was my work. I saw Adam three years ago, on the day of your wedding and I knew he was my mate,but I couldn't just show up so I waited. It is said that whoever waits until the end will receive his reward, well I waited and planned everything."<br /> And she laughs at me , looking at her "Were you even pregnant?" I can't stop myself from asking but that made her stop.<br /> "Of course I was" she says "With a rogue." and she turns around and leaves but right before she exits she looks at me and says.<br /> "Now everything is right how it should be. Adam will give me your Luna position and I will get what I was looking for."<br /> "You are crazy" I said more in a whisper,but that remark made her laugh.<br /> "Oh, my dear, you have no idea what I have done to reach this point" and turning around she comes to me again and places a hand on my womb.<br /> "I must confess to you. Anyway you will die tomorrow and at this point no one will ever believe you again."<br /> Confess me what? What does she mean?<br /> "You, not being able to procreate...that is my work too."<br /> And my blood is boiling in my veins. She did something? But we have been trying for three years to have a pup, and she showed up months after our wedding.<br /> How could she.?<br /> "Rosie!" Kelly whispered. "They worked together"<br /> I must be like an opened book for her,because she started to laugh even harder.<br /> "You figured it out, didn't you?" Lexie mocks me, but I am not in the mood to hear her again and I jump on her and grab her by her neck.<br /> "Was it all because of you?"<br /> She ruined my life! I could have been happy. I could have had my happily ever after but this jerk showed up and robbed my life!<br /> "I will kill you!" I growl trying to elongate my claws and rip her head, but Lexie pushed me and made me hit the wall with my head.<br /> Everything is spinning around and I fall on my knees again and lean on the ground, without being able to support my own weight.<br /> "You are so pathetic!" Lexie laughs.<br /> "Look how weak you are!"<br /> Oh, Lexie...If I get up you will be so dead right now, but you made them give me wolfbane.<br /> "I am leaving, sorry for not being in the mood to see your weak and ugly face right now" she says. "I am going to my mate and who knows, maybe tonight we will conceive a pup!" and she leaves me there laughing her heart out.<br /> "Over my dead body!" I tell her more in a whisper.<br /> "Yeah...yeah.." she says as if she ignores me "And that will be right tomorrow. I will intercourse Adam over your dead body!"<br /> He won't do it? Isn't he? Adam will not kill me...he is my mate, my husband...<br /> but no matter how much I repeated this in my mind in the morning when the doors opened I knew that whatever I thought that I thought I knew about Adam was gone.<br /> "Take her!" Bill commands his warriors as they push me out of my cell.<br /> "Where are they taking us?" Kelly asks me scared, trying to take the command but the wolfsbane intoxicates her.<br /> "Nat!" she calls me but I can't utter a single word, he is going to do it. He is going to keep his word. The warriors throw me ugly looks and push me to walk, and I would do it but I can barely stay on my feet and then the doors open and the sun rays hit me hard.<br /> Everything hurts. My eyes are hurting because of the strong light, my skin that is all wounded feels like burning under the summer heat and my ears...oh my goddess! Is this really the pack I loved with all my heart? Is this a Red Blood Pack? Are those the same werewolves that swore faith to me or is some kind of a nightmare?<br /> "Kill her!!!!" everyone yells "She killed our pack heir! She doesn't deserve to live anymore!" and they started to throw things in my direction. Tomatoes, shoes,rocks... and none stops them.<br /> "Criminal!!!!" someone screamed from the crowd. "Kill her Alpha! I can't stand to look at her!"<br /> Well I can't stand to look at this pack either.<br /> I put so much effort in the last three years. So many nights without sleeping.<br /> Everything I did in the last years was for this pack and they want me dead? And why? Because I wasn't able to offer them an heir? I thought that working hard will compensate for my inability to convince but they just dumped me as soon as they had the opportunity to do it.<br /> I was their Luna but at the same timeI was their Alpha because Adam never cared about the pack, but about the power that comes with the Alpha position.<br /> I did everything in my power to keep this pack united. I attended all the meetings he skipped. My life was only at the service of this pack and now it is more than clear that it was all for nothing.<br /> I understood Adam in the past. I knew he was not a very social person so took the lead and I held the reins of this pack by myself, but I would have never expected that this would be the way he would reward me.<br /> He dumped me as soon as he found his fated mate, even if he said he wouldn't do it. She became the center of his ambitious plan to have an heir and even slept with her.<br /> Oh, Adam, you are so stupid!<br /> This dog is going to bury you. She fooled and played you on your fingers,just as she did it with me.<br /> After everything you have done I am just sad that I will not have the opportunity to watch your fall. Will be greater than mine.<br /> I wanted to run away hearing that Lexie is pregnant with your child. You killed me that day so now that there is nothing left I can see it clearly. Now everything was revealed.<br /> I was so stupid to will to accept that pup in my life just for you, I should have stayed for myself and ban her out of this pack. But you know what? Red Blood Pack deserves Lexie as its Luna.<br /> This will be my revenge.<br /> I walk through the crown and their insults are not affecting me anymore.<br /> They would better trust an omega than their Luna. They are just some opportunistic cowards. They are taking revenge on me for demanding high training standards, but it was all to protect them from the rogues.<br /> They really think that someone like Lexie would be a better choice for them? Just wait and watch Red Blood Pack! This woman will perish you!<br /> Maybe I exceeded my skills by taking<br /> Adam's duties but it was only for your own good.<br /> "Nat!" Suddenly Kelly whispers "The council is here!"<br /> And dad is here too. And I can see his panicked gaze, and I can see the tears that he is trying to hold. He was Adam father's beta for years and he always looked strong and unstoppable but now he looks so human, as if seeing me this way killed his heart.<br /> "I love you dad," I mindlink him and give him a straight look into his eyes, so he would know that I mean every single word I say.<br /> "Be strong," I whisper. " Be strong for me. Don't cry for me, dad. Just be the man I know you are" and would give him a smile but I can't find the strength to move my facial muscles. I can't even utter a single word.<br /> "This is not right, Natalie" he tells me and I see him coming in my direction,but I move my eyes and command him.<br /> "No dad, let him do what he puts in his mind. I can't escape from this" and I let Bill and his warriors drive me in front of the council, even if I feel my dad eyes watching me. In this crowd he is the only one who is on my side. Everyone else wants me dead.<br /> "Natalie Williams" one of the elders of the council announces. "We found you guilty for crime against you alpha and your pack"<br /> Guilty? Oh, elder, you are so wrong here!<br /> If I wouldn't be drugged I would prove to you who the real culprit is, but I can't continue talking about your nonsense.<br /> "The punishment for your crime is death!" he utters so sure of his words and I stare at the crowd that started to cheer at his words as if he just announced that they will receive more money.<br /> I turn my head and look at Adam. Adam the love of my life and also the executioner of my life. He walks in military steps and lifts the sword that the council brought for my execution.<br /> He is not even flinching. He is doing this by conviction. He wants to kill me. His inner spirit longs for my blood.<br /> "I will miss you dad" I whisper, giving my dad a last look, and I see him falling on his knees.<br /> "I will miss you Kelly" I whisper and I would like to hug my wolf if I could, to tell her that I am not mad at her for not being able to defend me, but this is above us. This is a betrayal I could never imagine that I will face.<br /> I see Adam in front of me but he is not watching me. He just lifted the sword and pierced my heart. He kicks me with his foot and makes me fall on the ground while the crowd cheers in madness , and my father collapses for good.<br /> "Kelly" I whisper, feeling dizzy. "This is it. This is the end." and my eyelashes started to flutter as I was not able not even to keep my eyes open for a few more seconds.<br /> All I could see was my blood flowing on the ground.<br /> "Stop it!"<br /> Someone said stop it? Am I hallucinating? I opened my eyes just a little bit and I could see a handsome man running in my direction. Do I know him?

This one is from Canada and beloved the Mrs. John Hutnik, born in 1888 and left this world in 1944. The rich aged wood stands as a tribute to a woman who lived through the era that shaped the world as we know it today, but, sadly did not get to see the end of the global war. <br /> <br /> This piece of history measures 16” high and 8” wide. The details are many and the craftsmanship, very detailed. This decorative item was clearly a cherished family heirloom and could resume that role. It has its original hoop on the back with a recessed hole so as to lie flat against the wall. <br /> <br /> Not only is it decorative, but would make a very unique addition to the collector. The body is cast, I believe in resin. There is a slight seam from having been cast, but not very noticeable. This piece is completely unmolested, and I offer it up this way because, while I have some respect for all of the original patina possible, others may wish to guild it in gold or silver. <br /> <br /> The scale is perfect and the articulation of the feet, and loin cloth are as good as I’ve seen. The halo is definitely deco influenced and held in place with small brads. No missing pieces at all. <br /> <br /> #antique #CorpusChristi #vintagetreasure #Crucifix #Timeless elegance<br /> Facebook Marketplace	BUY_NOW	https://facebook.com/marketplace/item/430264882668	104182891057596	Ed Kelly	/marketplace/?seller_profile=100002585533323	0	1	1,095,890,751,696,961	2024-04-28 02:00	regular_page	eligible	NONE	0	1	1	Buy now	Ed Kelly	6564763941656		NONE	image		https://facebook.com/marketplace/item/430264882668419/	2024-04-28 10:55		regular_page	1	Ed Kelly	https://scontent-lax3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/440321655_322844637493296_4424499804164735491_n.jpg?_nc_cat=108&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=JE9vdofDnPUAb7GjTI3&_nc_ht=scontent-lax3-1.xx&oh=00_AfCPRAqZ36_nVw1ghcwchy3XseCHXURUYmrxtu0HRI003w&oe=6634B12F	1	3	Ed Kelly	2024-04-28 02:00	View Edit Delete
