Farewell
"If only I could pull open my heart for you to see, would you realize how much I love you."Nina’s eyes turned red, and she hugged his waist. “I love you more,” she declared. She felt an urgency to express her feelings, realizing there wouldn't be a time like this again.With a sniffle, she continued. “Jayden Luxton, you are my first and only love. You’re my family, the person who gave me a home. You’ve spoiled me and filled my heart with warmth. Because of the complexity of our relationship, I acted like I didn't care about you. But deep inside, I would wake up in dread, fearing that you wouldn’t want me anymore.”Just the thought of being abandoned by him suffocated her.“That’s not true.”"Maybe not, but have you seen yourself in the mirror? You always sport that cold and menacing face as though someone owes you a billion dollars.”Jayden touched his nose sheepishly. “You know I’m not good with words,”“But I’m your woman,” Nina raised her voice indignantly. “I don’t care how you de

Inviting Emilia
Amidst their banter, Krystal suddenly stood up and walked to the center of the room.“In that case, Sean, don’t you think you also have some explaining to do? Where’s your washboard?” she questioned.Her words frightened Sean and he ran towards the door, wanting to escape. But Krystal signaled the guards, who promptly blocked the exits, trapping him in the room.“Are you happy now?” Seeing the chaos that had ensued, Liam couldn’t help but ask Nora, who was so overjoyed that tears filled her eyes.“I raised them well!” Nora declared, patting her chest.She then grabbed his chin, forcing him to meet her gaze. “Where’s your sense of camaraderie?” she asked.The smirk on Liam’s face faded, and he leaned in, seeking a way out for himself. “But I did nothing, right?”“But you did in the past. And I’ve never punished you for it. So make up for your mistakes.”Everyone knew Liam was a slave to his little girlfriend.With no other option, he reluctantly joined the lineup alongside Jayden and Se

Her past
“Ahh…” A lewd moan resounded inside the room.The sounds of flesh hitting each other could be heard in the silent night.Nina wished she could block her ears, but the restraints on her hands rendered her helpless.Lying motionless on the floor, tears rolled down her cheeks as the unpleasant noise intensified.After years of hiding, she was back to square one. Trapped in the same haunting reality she had once escaped.This was the life she had endured for fourteen long years.Clenching her teeth, Nina endured the torment until the disturbing noise subsided.“Enough, my body can’t take it anymore.” Kristen panted heavily.A rough voice that seemed to belong to a man sounded. “Okay. If you’re tired, how about the person in the next room? I heard your daughter is back. Why don’t you let me-”“Don’t even think about it,” Kristen said sternly. “I’ve kept her alive because a party has offered 10 million dollars for her.”“10 million dollars!!!” The man raised his voice.“Shh! Keep your voice

Follow their own paths
Pain radiated through Nina's body as she hit the road, the gravel biting into her palms.Nina attempted to pull herself up, but she was too exhausted to even lift a finger.

One last time
Nina, who had just refilled the jar of water, passed by the living room and overheard their conversation. Her eyes dimmed, and she quietly walked away.After she left, Stefan sighed and sympathetically patted Jayden’s shoulder.In the hushed stillness of the night, Jayden entered Nina’s room and found her curled on the bed.The moonlight painted a soft glow across her pale face.Jayden lay beside her, the mattress creaking under his weight. He reached out and brushed a strand of hair from her face.Nina stirred but did not open her eyes.Pulling her close, he tightened his arms around her.“Nina,” he whispered, nudging his face against hers, “I don’t care about your past. I never did. You’ll always be my wife, my Mrs. Luxton, no matter what.”Jayden felt her body stiffen and he continued his words. “I love you, baby. More than words can say. And I’ll always be by your side, no matter how stormy the weather is.”He gave a peck on her forehead and whispered, “I love you.”Nina tried har

Hope
"I missed you. While you were away, I've never stopped thinking about you," she admitted.How could she be so selfish as to abandon him and leave everything behind? The very man who had been the reason she could step out of her shadows.She had let go of his hand when he needed her the most. The thought of not being there to witness his final moments was so agonizing that it felt like a sharp pain was piercing through her heart, leaving her breathless.Nina wiped away her tears and assured Jayden, “I’m here now. And I’ll never leave your side.”Without waiting for his reply, she expressed her intention to speak to his doctor.As she left the ward, a streak of worry flashed across Jayden’s face, “Nina…”In the doctor’s office.Closing the door behind her, Nina anxiously approached the doctor. “Doctor, how is Jayden’s situation?”The doctor furrowed his brow. “Who are you?”“I’m his wife, Nina Luxton,” she declared. She was his wife in this life and she would be his wife even after he d
