The next day...Tiffany sat pensively in a prison cell, of course alongside other inmates, who were two skinny girls with short hair, many tattoos, and piercings, making them look truly rough."I know you're the daughter of the city's biggest mining tycoon. What brought you here?" asked one of the inmates sitting about 5 meters from Tiffany.Tiffany remained silent."Before I was imprisoned, I saw your husband with another woman and two children, a boy and a girl. They looked so happy..." Another prisoner spoke with her arms crossed, looking at Tiffany with pity. "I don't understand... You just got divorced but he's already with another woman and kids. Does that mean he's dating a single mom? Or has he been with that woman for a long time and those kids are his?""I think those are his kids, which means her ex-husband has been cheating on her for a long time. And maybe now she's like this because she did something crazy out of stress!" another prisoner chimed in, then laughed. "Men ar

Thomas came to the hospital where Tiffany was being treated after being abused by other inmates. He was about to enter her room but was immediately stopped by Billy, who had just come out of the room, while a police officer stood nearby."I want to see how your daughter is doing," Thomas said with a flat expression."And what will you do after seeing her?" Billy asked with a sneer."I just want to determine if she deserves to be free or not... Her freedom is now in my hands, you can't mess with me anymore." Thomas glanced at Billy, who tightened his jaw, clearly displeased with his words. "Don't make me change my mind. I could prove that she isn't mentally ill and take her back to prison... You can no longer use your power to protect her," he continued.Billy fell silent, clenching his fists, while Thomas proceeded into the room."Oh my..."Thomas was shocked to see Tiffany's pitiful appearance, her hair disheveled, her body thin, and her face unrecognizable. He had never seen her lik

The next day...Erland had just woken up, feeling very unmotivated, his face looking pale, his beard growing thick, and his hair very messy."Honey," called Maelie as she entered the room carrying a cup of coffee on a small plate, then handed it to Erland while sitting on the bed. "You look very pale this morning... I don't think you're ready to go back to work," she continued with a worried look.Erland sipped the coffee and then sighed. "I have to go back to work. There's a lot I need to do because the company is going through major changes since we stopped working with Billy Johnson's company," he said."I have to help my father revive our company because this is all happening because of me," he continued anxiously, handing the coffee back to his wife before getting up from the bed.Maelie was silent, watching Erland rush to the bathroom.'He has changed a lot since the shooting incident. It's like he's hiding something from me,' she thought disappointedly. 'What should I do now? S

"Why isn't your husband home yet at this hour?" Teddy asked as he saw Maelie and Jane exit the twins' room. "It's already late," he added, glancing at his watch, which showed 10 PM.Maelie swallowed hard and walked to the sofa."Maybe he's busy," she said."But I think it's unusual for a boss to work this late," replied Teddy, frowning and glancing at Jane, who immediately sat next to him."You don't know how busy he is... you don't understand his job, so you should stay quiet," Jane said with a displeased look.Teddy exhaled harshly. "I just don't want him to treat Maelie the way he treated his first wife. I don't want him to get bored, start leaving her often, and then fall in love with a new girl...""Teddy!" Jane interrupted in a soft voice. "You shouldn't say that. You'll ruin your niece's mood!"Teddy remained silent, turning his face away as Maelie quickly stood up."I need to go to my room now," Maelie said.Jane nodded, letting Maelie walk towards the stairs. She then turned

Leo stood near the gate of an elite school, watching Alaina as she exited the building with her friends, looking around as if searching for someone. He entered the grounds and approached his daughter with a smile."You ..." Alaina squinted at Leo, slowing her small steps."Sweetheart ..." Leo crouched in front of Alaina and briefly touched her cheek. "I've come to pick you up.""Tony is supposed to pick me up," Alaina said, frowning. "Grandma said I'm not allowed to go home with strangers, so I have to wait for Tony here!" she continued, then ran toward a waiting bench near the security post.Leo exhaled sharply, stood back up, and looked at Alaina, who looked so cute and pretty with her long brown hair, wearing pink pants, a white shirt, and a red bag.'I can't waste this opportunity,' he thought, glancing around until his gaze fell on a luxury car stopping in front of the gate."Damn, she's here!" he said, clenching his fists, seeing Tiffany hurriedly exit the car and approach Alain
