Chapter 51

As Klein stepped into the cafeteria, his eyes widened at the sight before him. Evangeline and Zach sat close together. Their hands were intertwined in a moment of unexpected intimacy. His brows furrowed in confusion as he took in the scene, unsure of what he was witnessing."Evangeline," Klein's voice cut through the air, with a hint of disbelief. "What's going on here?"Evangeline's heart sank as she saw Klein's reaction, realizing the misunderstanding that was unfolding before her. She quickly released Zach's hand and stood up, her mind racing for an explanation."It's not what it looks like, Klein," she began, her voice tinged with urgency. "Zach and I were just—"But before she could finish her sentence, Klein's expression hardened, his eyes narrowing with suspicion."I can't believe this," he muttered, his voice laced with disappointment. "After everything he's done to you, you're back with him?"Evangeline's heart shattered at Klein's words. She opened her mouth to explain, but

Chapter 52

Klein looked at Evangeline with a reassuring smile. "I'll give you two a moment," he said softly, nodding towards Zach, who stood a few feet away.Evangeline nodded, her heart pounding in her chest as she turned to face Zach. "Hi, again. " she said, her voice barely above a whisper.Zach gave her a small, hesitant smile. "Hi, Evangeline," he replied, his tone cautious.There was a moment of awkward silence between them before Evangeline spoke again. "Zach, I appreciate you coming here," she began, trying to keep her voice steady.Zach nodded, his expression serious. "I needed to see you, Evangeline," he admitted as his gaze searched hers. "I needed to talk to you... to apologize."Evangeline felt a lump form in her throat as memories of their past flooded back. "Zach, you don't have to apologize," she said softly. "We've both made mistakes, and I've forgiven you."Zach shook his head, his eyes filled with regret. "But I hurt you, Evangeline," he said, his voice pleading. "I betrayed y

Chapter 53

"Oh..." Evangeline mumbled softly, her gaze drifting downward.She cast one final glance at the woman, who exuded confidence and elegance, appearing as though she belonged with Klein. For a moment, doubts flickered in Evangeline's mind, but she quickly pushed them aside. If she were to lose Klein, it wouldn't be because of another woman.With resolve, Evangeline turned her attention back to Klein, offering him a smile."Can we go home already?" she asked, reaching for his coat, which felt oddly unfamiliar to him.Klein chuckled warmly and pulled her close, planting a tender kiss on her forehead."You don't need to be jealous. She's married. And I only have eyes for you," he whispered reassuringly to Evangeline.Without another glance at the woman, Klein took Evangeline's hand and helped her carry the babies leading them inside the car.The drive was long and quiet. And as the car came to a halt in front of a sleek, modern building, Evangeline gazed up at the towering structure in awe.

Chapter 54

Chapter 54The following days were filled with joy and anticipation as Evangeline and Klein prepared for their wedding. The air buzzed with excitement as they selected flowers, tasted cakes, and planned every detail of the ceremony. Their love seemed to grow stronger with each passing day, and Evangeline couldn't remember the last time she'd felt so hopeful about the future.However, life has a way of reminding us that peace is often fleeting.Late one night, Evangeline was stirred from her sleep by the faint sound of crying. At first, she thought it was a dream, but the sound persisted, growing clearer. She reached out for Klein, expecting to find him beside her, but his side of the bed was cold and empty. A prickle of unease ran down her spine.Rubbing her eyes, Evangeline sat up and listened intently. The soft, sorrowful cries were unmistakable. She slipped out of bed, wrapping a robe around herself as she hurriedly left the bedroom. The halls of Klein's mansion were dark and silen

Chapter 55

Chapter 55When Klein thought Evangeline was finally giving them some space and privacy, Evangeline suddenly erupted in anger."Get out of here! Now!" Evangeline's voice rang through the spacious room, filled with a raw intensity that neither Klein nor Daphnie had anticipated. The sound seemed to echo as it lingered in the air long after the words had left her lips. Her face was flushed with anger and her eyes were blazing with both of hurt and rage, as she pointed towards the door with a trembling hand.Daphnie flinched as her eyes werewide with surprise and fear. She had never seen someone become like this and was clearly taken aback by the sudden explosion of emotion. The poised and confident woman seemed momentarily lost, unsure of how to respond to the unexpected hostility.Klein's shock quickly morphed into concern, but then almost immediately flickered of something darker—anger, perhaps, or frustration. He had been blindsided by Evangeline's sudden outburst, not understanding t

Chapter 56

Chapter 56Evangeline stood in front of the full-length mirror in her bedroom, carefully adjusting the hem of her dress. She chose a sophisticated, deep green dress that accentuated her figure without being too revealing. She needed to look confident and composed, especially after the events of the past night. She brushed her hair back, securing it with a delicate clip, and applied a touch of makeup to highlight her features. Today, she would visit Klein at his company, determined to clear the air and assert her place in their relationship.As she fastened a pair of simple gold earrings, she heard a soft knock on the door. "Come in," she called, glancing toward the doorway.Lydia, the on-call nanny, stepped inside, carrying one of the triplets in her arms. "Good morning, Evangeline," she greeted warmly. "You look lovely."Evangeline smiled, appreciating the compliment. "Thank you, Lydia. How are the little ones doing?""They're doing well," Lydia replied, gently bouncing the baby in h

Chapter 57

Chapter 57As Evangeline sped away, she was unaware of Klein tailing her, frantically pressing down on his horn in a desperate attempt to catch her attention. Meanwhile, Klein was a picture of frustration inside his car, screaming at the top of his lungs, “Evangeline, stop!” His hands gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles white as he cursed under his breath. Every missed chance to close the gap between them only heightened his fury.Evangeline eventually noticed Klein’s car in her rearview mirror, aggressively tailing her. Without hesitation, she took the first sharp turn she could, heading straight for her own company, SNCLR. The turn was so sudden and precise that Klein nearly missed it, his frustration boiling over as he tried to keep up. But Evangeline was driving like a seasoned pro, weaving through traffic with skill and ease, as if she had something to prove. She evaded other cars effortlessly, her focus sharp, her emotions fueling her every move.When she finally ar

Chapter 58

Chapter 58Evangeline buried herself in work after her confrontation with Klein. She used it as a distraction from the emotional storm raging inside her. Her usually bright demeanor had faded and was replaced by a focused, almost mechanical professionalism. The day's tasks seemed endless, but Evangeline refused to let her personal issues seep into her work.And so as evening approached, she finally left her office with her company driver taking her back to Klein's estate. When she arrived, the first sight that greeted her was Lydia waiting on the patio with the triplets in a stroller. The babies were awake, contentedly sucking on their binkies. A smile tugged at Evangeline's lips at the sight of her children, but Lydia’s troubled expression quickly caught her eye.Evangeline approached Lydia with concern. "What’s wrong, Lydia?" she asked, her voice gentle but laced with worry.Lydia hesitated but then pointed towards the front door. "There are two people inside, a man and a woman. The

Chapter 59

Chapter 59Run...Run, Evangeline!You do not deserve to be loved. You are a dirty, useless, defiled woman. Leave your children or they will suffer because of you. You do not deserve to have children as precious as them. Klein will leave you for another woman just like your husband did. No one is going to love you... Run!Evangeline's body trembled as she gasped for breath, her fingers gripping the sheets with a desperation that mirrored the terror in her mind. She was trapped in a nightmare so vivid that it felt disturbingly real. Jeremy's figure loomed over her, his weight pinning her down, suffocating her with the cruel repetition of a nightmare that refused to release its hold. Over and over, the same horrifying scenario played out, each cycle leaving her more drained, her breathing more shallow, until her mind could no longer distinguish between dream and reality.As the dream began to blur, her eyes fluttered open, heavy with exhaustion. Tears streamed down her face, unchecke

Chapter 60

Chapter 60A few moments later, Lydia finally arrived and her presence immediately eased the tension that had settled thickly in the room. The sound of her footsteps, light yet purposeful, seemed to bring the usual atmosphere back into the space. She moved with ease that came from years of caring for children as her hands quickly and efficiently tended to the infants who had been fussing in Klein’s arms just moments before. The cries of the babies quieted almost instantly under her gentle touch, and the room, which had been filled with their distressed wails, grew peaceful.Klein watched her for a moment as he felt a wave of relief wash over him. With her taking over the care of the twins, Klein was able to step back with his shoulders dropping to is sides shifted off him. He immediately turned and headed straight to the bathroom.Once done with his morning routine, he then dressed in his usual attire. He wore his perfectly pressed slacks and a neat, expensive shirt, making him look l
