After My Last Breath Chapter 249
Before I can even react, Griffin moves.In one swift motion, he steps between us, his large frame completely blocking Damon from my view. With Vera still resting safely against his chest, Griffin uses his free hand to grab Damon’s wrist, forcing him to let go of me instantly.“Don’t touch her,” Griffin says, his voice dangerously quiet.Damon stumbles back, probably not expecting Griffin to react like that.I didn’t expect it either.But I’m glad he did. For some reason, Damon’s touch disgusted me beyond measure.Damon glares at Griffin, rubbing his wrist where Griffin grabbed him. His face turns red with anger. “Why you—”However, before he can say another word, I push him back and don’t even feel guilty about it.“Don’t cause a scene here!” I say, pointing over my shoulder. “The kids are asleep. Let’s talk tomorrow.”Damon stares at me, completely stunned. He looks down at my hand on his chest, then up at my face, as if he can’t quite believe I just put my hands on him to push him a
After My Last Breath Chapter 248
During the entire flight, Cora stays lively, while Vera remains as calm and solemn as ever.The shock of the fall has completely disappeared from Cora’s eyes, and although she still looks a little tired and pale, it does nothing to dampen her spirits.In so many ways, Cora takes after Nora, while Vera reminds me of my younger self. I, too, used to be the quiet one—the one who followed every command, even though I grew up in a completely different environment than hers.Anyway, by the time the plane lands, my daughters are already fast asleep.When I try to reach for Vera so I can carry her out while Nora does the same for Cora, Griffin wraps his arms around my waist and practically lifts me off my feet.“What… what are you doing?”“Nothing,” he says before setting me aside.But then he reaches for Vera in her seat and gently lifts her into his arms, making sure her head falls on his shoulder while her arms dangle around his neck.It’s the kind of view that, for some reason, makes the

“Are you sure about this?” Lucas asks, looking very serious. “We don’t mind looking after Cora and Vera for a little longer.”I know my brother means well, and I know that after the previous incident, he would leave no stone unturned to make sure my daughters are safe and sound. I also know that he feels extremely guilty for what happened.But I’m not mad at them.I never was.I’m mad at myself for being absent, for being so weak in the past that the consequences of it led to everything that is happening now.But that’s okay. Because once this is all over, we can finally start over.A new beginning for the three of us.“I am,” I smile, if only to make sure I have thought this through. “I know you think I’m taking them with me because I don’t trust you guys anymore, but that’s not right. I’m taking them with me because I miss them so much. While I was in Raventon, every second felt like a big loss. Like I was losing something very precious. Time, that is. But I don’t want to do that an

The moment I spot Cora standing at the top of the stairs, my legs develop a mind of their own.Before I know it, I’m rushing up the stairs—probably two at a time—and folding my daughter into my arms.“Oh, my God!” I gasp, trying my damn best not to squeeze her too tight. “You’re awake. You scared me to death, Cora. Never do that again.”“Mommy!” Cora cries, and it breaks my heart all over again. “Mommy, you’re finally here. I missed you so much.”“I know, baby. I know. I missed you, too. I promise I’ll never leave you again. Never, ever.”“Promise, Mommy?” She hiccups, pulling back to gaze into my eyes with all the expectation in the world.“Promise. From today onward, wherever I go, you’ll come with me. And vice versa.”“Mommy, that makes me so happy.” She smiles, but the exhaustion of the past two days is obvious on her face. “I have so much to tell you, Mommy. So much happened when you were gone.”I gently kiss her forehead. “We have all the time in the world now, love. You can tel

The force of the slap snaps Ruby’s head sideways.For a second, the room drops into dead silence, punctuated only by Beth’s choked whimpers from the floor.Ruby slowly turns back, cupping her burning cheek. The shock in her eyes curdles into raw, toxic venom.“You crazy bitch!” she shrieks, lunging forward.The guards move instantly. They grab her arms, pinning her in place. She thrashes against them like a trapped animal, hair whipped wildly across her face. “You think you can touch me? You just fucking hit me! Everyone saw it—assault!”I don’t flinch. I draw a silk handkerchief from my pocket, deliberately wiping my palm with slow, agonizing precision. Then I drop it to the floor like trash.“You hit me over a lie!” She continues screaming, her screech tearing through the hallway as she scrambles to turn around. She snaps her head toward the trembling staff. “She’s lying! All of you know it! That girl fell because she’s clumsy! Ask anyone—the brat tripped on her own dress!”No one m
After My Last Breath Chapter 244
After watching the incident in the garden, it wasn’t hard to find out the truth.In the footage, Beth’s sister was clearly cornering Vera and snatching her bracelet away. The one Mom had gifted to her when she first arrived, and also the one that looked exactly like the one Cora had.And of course, it wasn’t the only incident. Apparently, it was simply one of many.Although Beth and her sister, Ruby, didn’t physically hurt my daughters, they were constantly around them for one reason or another, and they always took something from Vera, no matter what.They saw her silence as a weapon and used it against her for nothing but their greed.I still can’t believe this has been going on for so long and no one even noticed it.Beth’s practically shaking right now. Seeing that we have all the evidence we need, she probably knows there’s no way out of it. And maybe that’s why, before I know it, she collapses on the floor and starts crying and begging.“I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Madam. P
After My Last Breath Chapter 94
For a full two minutes, I sit frozen in my seat.“Damon? Damon? Can you hear me? Damon!”I jerk awake, blinking too hard—too fast—trying to make sure this is real. I look around, searching for even the smallest hint that this is nothing but a nightmare.But the moment my eyes land on Hannah, my hea

I’m about to knock when another thought occurs to me.What if… what if they’re already asleep?It is kind of late to disturb someone in the middle of the night, isn’t it?I step back, letting out a sigh.“It’s okay,” I say to myself. “Just a few more hours, and then I’ll finally be able to see her.”

[Damon]I turn around, trying to spot Elara, but all I see are faces that look nothing like hers.It doesn’t help that the lights are still turned off, the darkness making it even harder to find her.“Come on, Elara! Don’t play this game with me now.”My heart… it’s racing so fast I can’t explain i

“Elara,” Mom whimpers. “What happened to you? Why are you being like this?”I roll my eyes. Doesn’t she know this act of hers—playing the caring mother—grew old a long time ago? It sickens me now, the way she’s always tried to manipulate me with those tears and that fake sadness, the kind that come
