Adeline's POVI tried to please myself by walking around. There wasn't much to look at as some of the dresses reminded me of that bitch, while others didn't look interesting enough to buy.I finally walked into one of the boutiques that looked promising. A staff member greeted me politely, and another immediately accompanied me to each clothing section. section of dresses that had recently been released and immediately caught my eye. None of the dresses were similar to that woman's, so I chose the prettiest one.I looked at the staff carrying my chosen dress with a satisfied smile. "I'm glad I still have the diamond necklace I haven't sold from the jewellery collection in my house. I'll be able to buy a fancy new dress."I couldn't stop feeling excited when I received the paper bag containing the dress that the boutique staff had prepared. I already imagined wearing it to a party or an important event where many people would notice me.I muttered under my breath as I walked around aft

Adeline's POVI felt scared, alone in the police station that seemed to be busy with their work, as well as several other people who seemed to be arrested like me. I fiddled with my fingers with an uneasy feeling, looking for a delicate part that I could pick off my fingernails and remove to distract myself.This was the first time I had ever been to a police station. In my entire life, I've never been in a place like this for as long as I can remember. I looked at the policeman who had come to arrest me earlier, pretending to be brave despite feeling uneasy. "Sir, I... I want to call my parents. You guys are wrongly arrested. This is slander!" I asserted in a loud tone.The policeman looked at me calmly before turning to his computer screen. "We are not making arrests based on slander, as you say, Ms. Adeline. All the evidence regarding this murder case has been obtained, and you are included in it."I shook my head, furrowing my brow as I thought that it was impossible. It had been

Chris'bPOVI read the news about the case involving Adeline and her mother. A photo of the two was displayed, as well as a headline stating that Adeline allegedly killed her step-sister with the help of her mother.'Their case is still under our investigation', read a statement from one of the police. 'They have been arrested, and we will investigate the case to the best of our ability to achieve justice for the late Nicole Martinez.'Many people commented on the late handling of a long-over case. Still, some found it interesting because they were curious about what was behind the opening of a murder case that was initially thought to be just an accident.After searching, there was finally another article that said that the police also had evidence that could reveal the crime of the mother and son. There was only one line of the article that caught my attention.'The evidence is so clear that they can already be confirmed guilty.' Another party from the police stated. The rest were a

Chris' POVI heard the sound of Adeline's small laughter, which immediately brought me to my senses after thinking about her words. She looked happy to see me affected by her words, but I didn't let her be for too long.I still held her hand tightly, looking at her sharply. "You and I are different, Adeline. You are a demon. How could you kill the woman you've lived with for so long so easily.""Huh, are you replying to me now?" She looked at me in surprise. "You think you're a saint, Chris? We're all the same for ruining someone's life. Why do you think Nicole ended up dead like that? It's because of you too!"Adeline came closer, staring at me fearlessly despite the grimace of her hand that I had re-tightened. She smiled with raised eyebrows. "You have to let me out of here, Chris. The sooner, the better. You don't want me to remind you of what you did to Nicole, do you?"I was getting angry at this shameless woman in front of me. How could I be married to a woman who was the devil
Ex-Lover's Regret Chapter 102
Nicole's POVThe news about Adeline committing a crime a few years ago spread. Many media outlets aired and publicised it on various websites, but I didn't read any news about it.Instead of checking the news as usual, I was now pouring one of my finest collections of drinks into a glass, watching how the almost dark brown liquid filled my glass halfway before I gulped it down in one searing gulp.The strong scent of alcohol pierced my nose, as did the taste sensation that was much stronger than my usual drink, but one that I desperately needed at this moment. I don't know what happened to me, and I didn't feel anything after my plan finally went through."Is something wrong with me?" I muttered to myself, not understanding the strange feeling I was having.There was no joy, satisfaction or euphoria when I heard about it. Rather, it was empty and made me feel gloomy and unpleasant. I went to my private bar after finishing my work, alone and without any music to accompany me to drink.

Nicole's POVI woke up with my head aching. I changed my position to sitting, leaning against the headboard for a few moments while holding my head, starting to regret my decision to drink without making a limit."Ah, that sucks." I groaned, still feeling an intense dizziness, before being able to consume the hangover reliever provided on the table near my bed.I quickly got ready and made my way to the dining room, which was already crowded with Father, my son, and a few waiters standing guard to serve us if needed. When I turned to my son again, Richard had already started eating his food so I involuntarily smiled.I approached the table, looking at my father, who was also looking at me. "How did you do last night, Nicole? Did you have enough fun?" He asked me.I paused, looking at Richard, still eating voraciously, before trying to hide my embarrassing expression.I smiled politely. "Yes. I feel quite happy, Father."Edwin accepting my answer without question. I sat across from R

Nicole's POVI showed the puzzle piece to Richard, asking my son. "Do you know where this is for, Richard?""Let me see, Mom." He lifted his gaze to the puzzle I held before pointing towards the spot I had found moments ago, much later than Richard. "Right there, Mom. The piece you're holding is ambiguous, but look at the color combination for reference."I secretly smiled, glad to see him explaining to help me keep solving the puzzle with him instead of just telling me where it was. "Yeah, Mom seems to be getting a headache since we've been working on this for over an hour.""You can just ask me again if you're having trouble." He smiled before getting serious about the remaining pieces of the puzzle.I managed to attach more than a dozen pieces, completing the hundreds of pieces already attached by Richard, who looked happy that we had almost finished his puzzle.He picked up the last puzzle piece and showed it to me. "This is the last piece, ma'am." His eyes shone brightly, and he

Nicole's POVI watched as Chris just stood there. He then knelt, held my headstone with one hand and spoke. "Nicole, I am so sorry for what I did to you back then…."I frowned, not understanding how such words could come from his mouth after all these years. Regret, he said, what was that man thinking?I looked at him sharply, annoyed by his words that made no sense. Chris was continuing with his words. This time, instead of looking sombre, the man looked annoyed to the point of clenching his fists. I could gnash his teeth even though we were pretty far away."If only I didn't believe that video of you kissing Jayden...." He tightened his grip even more until he looked red and closed his eyes momentarily. "I just found out that Adeline was the one who sent the video.""I talked to that woman a few days ago. She was finally arrested, along with her mother, and she told me that she sent the video so that our marriage would never happen."Chris seemed to open his eyes, revealing the tear
