In the hushed aftermath of their encounter, Mia's face bore a lingering shadow of gloom. The man beside her had given her one hell of a ride. But was she happy? She spoke, her words carried a delicate resolve, "This can't go on. We cannot keep doing this" The room, once filled with the heat of passion, now seemed to shiver with the weight of her decision.The man, a mysterious figure in the dimly lit space, responded with an inscrutable chuckle. His nonchalant demeanor belied the tension that hung in the air. Mia, however, persisted, "We need to stop."In an abrupt shift, the man's expression darkened as he gave Mia a wild stare. His hand seized Mia's chin, and their eyes locked in an intense gaze. "You want it to end?" His voice, once indifferent, now carried a sinister undertone.

The mere mention of Gerard's brother sent a chill through the room.Silence lingered, broken only by the murmur of the

After Mia hung up the call with Gerard, she found it hard to believe but felt a glimmer of happiness. Why would Gerard want to see her, and why would he call her himself? It was unlike Gerard, who had always kept his distance from Mia and never seemed to want her around. Despite her surprise, Mia couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement. This could be her chance, a chance to finally make Gerard hers with no one in the way now. Mia had already heard about Ivy's new life with riches which made her jealous but she knew Ivy still despised Gerard and that gave her the courage that Gerard was hers and hers alone. Quickly, she started packing her things, eager to seize this unexpected opportunity. Just as she was about to leave the house, her phone rang again. She glanced at the caller ID and her heart skipped a beat. With trembling hands, she answered the call. "You thought you could escape from me without a slight notice?" The man's voice on the other end of the line sent a chill d

As Mia sat before the officer, she felt a wave of apprehension wash over her. She knew that her testimony could have far-reaching consequences, and she was determined to speak her truth, no matter the cost. The officer began his questioning, asking Mia to recount the events of the night she and Yvette were kidnapped. Mia's voice wavered slightly as she relived the harrowing experience, describing the fear and confusion they felt as they were taken against their will.When the officer asked about the computer, Mia hesitated for a moment. With a heavy heart, she admitted that Mr. James was the only other person who had used the computer that night.As the interrogation continued, Mia's disdain for Mr. James became increasingly evident. She spoke of him with contempt, expressing her fervent wish that he would remain behind bars for the rest of his days. Her words dripped with bitterness, and the officer couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.Throughout the questioning, Gerard watched
