"Of course, I accept, my love! And it does make a difference, indeed! Obviously, the most important thing I already have, which is you here, close to me, but it's good to confirm that you love me so much, enough to want me to be your wife in every way. And I know my parents would like me to get married, with all the formalities and with a man like you."
"Like me?" He raised his eyebrows."Kind, polite, careful, affectionate..." She smiled. "After everything I've been through in recent years... all that I was, my choices... it will probably be the first thing I do that will make them proud, if the dead can indeed watch us from somewhere." She spoke, a little sad, but quickly abandoned that tone. "Put it on me!" Enthusiastically, she offered her left hand to him, who placed the ring on her finger, trembling a bit, which made them both laugh."Kath..." He sighed and caressed her hand, admiring the jewelry that represented their commitment. "Your parents would be so proud of yoRelated chapters

"Partner, the dude is getting a taxi with two suitcases." One of the accomplices helping him keep an eye on Darren reported over the phone. "It's the second trip in six months, after years of not traveling! He HAS to be going to visit his sister." He spoke, feeling excitement take over him. "Come on, man! He could be going anywhere, doing anything." The other commented, not entirely convinced. "I live every day of my life to find that bitch, and I know that, one day, it will happen!" He said, irritated. "That's why I spotted her brother out of nowhere! That's why I give you money and already greased the palms of half the world, damn it! So don't come at me with that, and figure out where he's going, since last time Ned couldn't." "Okay, boss." He retorted mocki

Timothy had spent almost forty-eight hours in front of the building where Darren had been seen entering, but the young man in question had not appeared at all, and there was no sign of Kath. However, his immeasurable obsession kept him paying a small fortune to two members of the organization operating in Philadelphia, to keep constant surveillance with him. He only left the car to buy snacks or use the bathroom at a café a block away from the building.It was around five in the afternoon when one of his accomplices finally saw Darren appear on the sidewalk, immediately occupying the back seat of a black BMW with tinted windows, preventing anyone from seeing inside.

The Red Rave's car was armored, so the security decided to stay inside it and prepare to leave as soon as possible. The armor was not enough to calm Darren and Kath, who embraced each other and cried, terrified, living the materialization of the nightmare that had haunted them once. It also did not deter Timothy, who pounded the bodywork, hit the windows with the revolver, after firing two shots at the front window and discovering the protection.Even with his hired men trying to convince him that no one would jump out of the car, and with other cars fleeing the street and starting to open a space for Dean to leave, he continued to threaten and curse. His last desperate measure to not fail in the attempt to take Kath with him was to shoot the tires of the black car, but shortly after, he was surprised by the arrival of another BMW, from which two guys began shooting at him and his accomplices, hitting one of them in the abdomen.Westwing would have continued there, exc

"Why run away?" She asked, finally looking into Darren's eyes when she managed to speak. "Why leave and survive, when he is my life? Why continue in this damn world if I'm going to become empty again... hollow, like I was before?""Never say that again, okay?" Her brother pleaded, nervously. "I need you, Kath. I need you alive, even if it's far away from me, again! Harry would want you alive too, I'm sure, and..." He closed his eyes and swallowed hard. "I'm almost certain that Timothy doesn't just want to kill you, and my stomach turns when I think of the disgusting things he could do if he caught you." He added, not controlling his own tears as he exposed his most intimate fears."Neither we from the police, nor your bodyguards, could guarantee your safety..." Mike reinforced."Besides, if you ignored this Timothy guy's presence, stayed here, and got married, your dear fiancé, whom you're so worried about, would also be at risk, which until now we have no reason to believe he is."
