Alice POV
Harry left around one hour ago. I have been cleaning the house as a form of relaxation. I know what youāre thinking. How can you relax while you clean? Well. I do. It takes my mind away from my problems.
Today is my day off, and I am honestly happy. Harry is sorting out his divorce hopefully, and then it wonāt be long until we can actually be together.
As I finish cleaning the kitchen, I make myself a cup of tea, and I turn the tv on.
Thereās some breaking news. I focus on the tv, and I canāt believe what my eyes are seeing.
I put my mug of tea on the centre of the coffee table, and I sit at the edge of the settee.
My hands cradling my face while my elbows wrest on my le

Harry POVItās been hours since we arrived at the police station. They keep asking the same questions over and over again. I kept my mouth shut as Steve instructed me. Steve gave them the contacts of my security team to pass them the footage of my CCTV cameras. I had to provide the personal passcode to access the cameras from my office. It took them three hours to get the images. But at least they have them. They will be able to see that it was all consensual. Steve was the first one to see the footage, and I can see the smile plastered on his face. āKinkyā - he saysāPleaseā, - I say, dismissing his try of a joke. āThis is gonna be easier than I
Alice POVHarry had a horrible night sleep. He kept having nightmares, and he was highly agitated. Obviously, I couldnāt sleep because I was worried about him. I donāt know what to do. He is inside his head, and he is not telling me how he feels. I honestly donāt know what to do anymore. He is tense, and he is barely talking. Donāt get me wrong. I understand why he is like that. This is all a fucked up mess.Rita went out of her way to destroy Harry. I know they have something up their sleeve, and he is not telling me what it is. I hear steps, and I look up from my Cup of tea to see Harry standing against the door frame, only in his boxer shorts looking at me.āAre you okay?ā - I ask as soon as our eyes meet.āI e got a headacheā,
Harry POV After a quick shower, I get dressed in one of my tailored suits. I fix my tie while I look at myself in the mirror, and I pass my hands through my hair. I shake my head, taking a deep breath. What the hell is Rita thinking sheās going to get with this? I never thought she would do something like this. Alice is making some more coffee and some snacks. Steve is coming over so We can go through the speech for the press conference. He will moderate the questions and tell me which ones I can answer. I am not happy about it, but it needs doing. I donāt like to be showing up on the press and making statements, but this got out of hand. After my parents and my idiot of a brother spoke to the press, they made things worse. They shouldāve stayed out of it. They brought more heat onto the case. Now the press is
Rita POVThese last few days have been a nightmare. Henry misses his daddy, and I wish I could just let them be together for a little while. I do miss Harry as well. Heās been with me for a few years now, and I fell for him. I know he thinks I donāt love Him. But I am doing all of this because I love him too much. Someday he will understand. I wake up with Henry crying. I walk to his bedroom to see what was happening. I am struggling to deal with his teething and with my morning sickness. Mum wants me to move in with her, but I donāt want to. Sheās been manipulating everything about my life, and I am done. I canāt do it anymore. I havenāt even told her I am pregnant. I am afraid of what she might say or do to Harry after she finds out.
Karen POVI know Rita is trying to get away and not do the plan. I just donāt know why. But I donāt need her. Not anymore. This is bigger than her now. I get in the car, and my wonderful husband waits for me. I want to see that bitchās face after she sees us together. I kiss his lips, and he smiles at me with adoration in his eyes. I love him a lot, but I havenāt forgotten what Harry did to me. And Devin. They will both pay. Alice is just collateraldamage. āAre you ready, my love?ā - D asks me.āAs Iāll ever beā, - I say as I put on the seatbelt, and he starts the car. I am going to make a special appearance at the press conference t
D POV I met Karen a few years ago when I was doing my residency. I immediately fell in love with her. She had just moved away from London, and she was starting her life again. She was working at a funeral agency. I met her when my grandmother died. She was the one dealing with everything. The way she handled everything with such class and always showing me that I was going to be okay made me fall entirely in love with her. Her caring eyes and her beautiful smile made me realise she was the one for me. She is a little older than me, but I am okay with that. We went out on a date , and she told me about her past, how her boyfriend dumped her for her friend and how she suffered from that. The boyfriend was a dick and
Alice POV I am making the bed when the doorbell rings. I look through the window, and I see the reporters taking photos, and I see Devin with his shades in his eyes and with his arms crossed. I run to the door, and I slightly open it so he can come in. I close the door as soon as he steps inside, and he gives me half hug and a kiss on the top of the head āHello, sweetheart. How are you doing?ā - he asks me while we go to the front room. The conference is being televised, and I canāt wait to see Harry taking down that bitch. Sheās been lying and manipulating Harry. I never thought I would hate someone as much as I hate her. Devin grabs us both cups of coffee, and we sit watching tv. Once the conference starts, I start
Hi everyone. I am sorry I havenāt updated the book as often as I would like. My personal life is a mess at the moment. We had some unfortunate and unforeseen things happening, and I donāt have the time to sit and write. You all know I work full time (40+ hours per week, and I have a toddler). I am trying my best when Iāve got a few minutes to type something, but itās complicated, and honestly, if I write, I will end up killing everyone because of everything that is happening to me. My life is literally upside down at the moment, and writing is not coming easily. I do apologise to all of you for the wait. I donāt know when I will be updating, but Iām hoping that my life will be a little better by the
