Ethan slowly made his way to Luna's old apartment, his heart still heavy from the recent hospitalization. He had hoped that Luna would be there, that she would forgive him for all the pain he had caused her. But as he approached the door, Luna's apartment was still locked and there was no sign of anyone there.Yes, it's natural because Luna previously moved there to escape from Ethan's violent pursuit at that time.Despite this, Ethan couldn't help but feel a flicker of anger towards Luna. He had always blamed her for his misfortunes, for the downward spiral his life had taken since they had broken up. He kicked the door open and began banging on it, shouting harsh words into the empty room."Luna! Where are you? You can't just disappear like this! I need you!"As he looked around the apartment, Ethan felt a wave of sadness wash over him. His life had truly been ruined - he had fallen into poverty, and his company had been taken over by Amelia, who was supposed to be his future wife.
Luna and Eddie stepped off the elevator and made their way down the hallway towards Luna's apartment. As they approached, Luna noticed that the door to her apartment was hanging off its hinges. She gasped in shock and covered her mouth with her hand.Luna already had a bad feeling seeing that. Luna hadn't visited her old cheap apartment in a long time and didn't expect to see something like this."What the hell happened here?" Eddie asked, looking around at the mess inside the apartment. Luna's clothes were strewn about the floor and furniture was overturned.Luna's heart sank as she suspected that her ex-husband, Ethan, was behind this. She had left him a few months ago.Ethan was also Luna's abusive ex-husband and only EThan knew the location of Luna's old apartment. Because of this, the perpetrator Luna was most sure of was Ethan the ex-husband.What's more, Luna discovered Ethan's illegal coal mining holdings in Thailand earlier and Luna reported to the Thai authorities. Luna beli
Today I decided to make a cake for Eddie.I was humming to myself as I mixed the batter for the cake, feeling a sense of contentment wash over me. It had been a few months since Eddie and I officially started dating, and things had been going great. I was relieved that Ethan, my ex-husband, seemed to have finally moved on and was no longer causing any trouble.I don't know where Ethan is now, but the important thing is that he doesn't interfere with my life anymore.As I poured the batter into the cake pan, I couldn't help but think about all the kindnesses Eddie had shown me over the years.Eddie showed me that no matter how hard life gets, there is always hope. That's why I feel like I need to repay his kindness even if it's just a little.I wanted to do something special to show him how much I appreciated him.I remembered that Eddie had mentioned wanting to introduce me to his family, but he had been having trouble finding a time that worked for everyone. Well, that's another stor
In a prison in Thailand.Ethan's heart raced as he felt the rough ropes dig into his wrists, binding him to the cold, hard concrete wall of his cell. He could hear the jeers and taunts of his fellow inmates as they closed in around him, their fists clenched and ready to strike. He knew he deserved this, after all, he had hurt Luna,a girl who had nothing to do with any of this and was made to suffer by Ethan and his family.As the first punch landed, Ethan's mind was flooded with memories of Luna. He remembered the way her laughter used to fill the air, the way her eyes sparkled when she was happy, and the way she had looked at him with such love and trust.Ethan remembers how he persuaded Luna to enter into a contract marriage with him and Ethan instead used the contract to torture Luna.He felt a sharp pain in his chest as he realized how much he had hurt her, and how much he had lost."You deserve this," one of the inmates sneered, landing another blow to his stomach. "You're nothin
Luna's eyelids fluttered open, and she was greeted by the sterile white of the hospital room. She groaned as she tried to sit up, but a firm hand on her shoulder gently pushed her back down."Easy, Luna. You're safe now," Eddie's voice soothed her, and she turned her head to see him sitting by her bedside."Eddie," she croaked, her throat dry. Eddie quickly grabbed a cup of water and helped her take a sip."How are you feeling?" he asked, his eyes filled with concern."I've been better," Luna replied, managing a weak smile. Luna's memories of her imprisonment felt very unreal now. Luna didn't think she could see the bright room now that was different from the dark room where she was kept."You were held captive for two days by Amelia," Eddie said, his jaw clenched. "But I found you and got you out."Eddie told her about how he wondered why Luna couldn't be contacted for a few days. And Eddie decided to check Luna's call log at the police station and found out Luna was getting calls f
Amelia was only briefly at the police station after being arrested earlier.Amelia's heart pounded in her chest as she was led out of the police station, her hands cuffed behind her back. She had known that her actions would catch up to her eventually, but she had never imagined it would end like this.Amelia had already committed many crimes, and her most recent crime was a capital offense.The policemen who escorted her were silent, their faces expressionless. Amelia tried to plead with them, to explain that she had made a mistake, but they ignored her. Instead, they pushed her into the back of a waiting car and blindfolded her.As the car drove through the streets of the city, Amelia's mind raced. She knew that she was in trouble, but she had no idea what was going to happen to her. All she could do was pray that she would make it out of this alive.This was clearly not a normal detention procedure, Amelia realized that. She was treated like a prisoner of terrorism now and that ine
The soft hum of the car engine lulled Eddie into a deep sleep, his head resting comfortably on Luna's lap. She looked down at him, taking in the peaceful expression on his face. In the dim light of the car, Eddie's features seemed softer, less guarded. His perfect, firm jawline relaxed, and his eyebrows unfurrowed, revealing a vulnerability that Luna had never seen before.Eddie and Luna were on a date driving around the city and took a break in that quiet place.She gently ran her fingers through his hair, marveling at the silky texture. Eddie stirred slightly, and Luna froze, not wanting to wake him. But he only sighed contentedly and snuggled closer to her.Luna felt a warmth spread through her chest as she watched him sleep. It was a side of Eddie that she had never seen before, and she couldn't help but feel a little closer to him.Suddenly, Eddie's eyes fluttered open, and he looked up at Luna with a sleepy smile. Without hesitation, he leaned in and pressed his lips to hers, ta
The grand room of the mansion was dimly lit, with only a few strategically placed lamps casting a soft glow on the faces of the people gathered around the large mahogany table. The family of Eddie's uncle sat stiffly in their chairs, their eyes darting nervously around the room.They were in a special room in the mansion and seemed to be talking about something important.At the head of the table sat Max's parents, their faces etched with anxiety and a hint of desperation. Max sat to their right, his hands clenched tightly in his lap as he listened to his parents' plan."Max, you know how important it is that we keep the family inheritance within our bloodline," Max's mother said, her voice low and urgent. "Eddie has never shown any interest in it, but now that he's with Luna, we can't take any chances."Max's mother started her sentence and then set her husband's direction. It was clear from the look on her husband's face that he didn't really agree with the plan, but a look from his
