Sullivan's expression remained unyielding, his eyes fixed on Evelyn's tearful face. His mind was racing with different options.Initially, he wanted revenge but now after hearing her side of the story, he didn't think he had the heart to hurt her.She had been through so much and it would be unwise of him to end her life.He flickered his lashes at her and he could sense desperation, her sincerity, but he struggled to reconcile the Evelyn standing before him with the one who had betrayed him so deeply."Evelyn, even if I wanted to help you, how could I trust you?" Sullivan asked his voice firm but measured. "You've lied and manipulated me once." I fell for your truck and it put countless lives at risk. What makes you think I'd ever trust you again?"Evelyn took a step forward, her hands clasped together in a pleading gesture. "What I did was unforgivable and I'm not here to ask for forgiveness nor am I here for you to trust me." "Oh," Sullivan smirked leaning forward on the table

Sullivan comes out from the bathroom with a towel over his head and another firmly crossed on his waist. He glanced at his wife who was in her night with a book over her face. Sullivan noticed that his wife, Mood had not been bright after their meeting with Evelyn.He didn't like the silence, but he knew that asking questions would only lead to more discord between the two of them. And this was something he didn't want to do. He also knew that not asking what was wrong with her would also lead to another trouble. So at this moment, he was stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea.He continued to clean the droplets of water on his hair as he kept stealing glances at his wife. Erica, on the other hand, was unfazed by this movement and kept her nose stuck in her book. Her legs were firmly crossed against each other. Sullivan could see the smoothness of her skin beneath her robe. But he didn't dare make a move because he knew his wife was angry at him.He swallowed hard to himse

Evelyn wakes up to the sound of rumbling items in her room. She moans softly as she flickers her eyes open. She was surprised to see the maids in her room. She jumped up from the bed. Her back was leaning against the bed frame as she tried to make sense of her surroundings. Suddenly, she felt someone's presence hovering over her. She raised her gaze and saw John looking at her with a numb expression on his face. "Rise and shine," He said."What's going on? She asked hurriedly." Am I in trouble? She asked. John ignores her, then keeps a straight face as he keeps his gaze fixed on the maids that were trying to tidy up the room."John," she half yelled." I asked a question." John turns, finally turns to look at her and he exhales in frustration." I heard you the first time, and I chose to remain silent," he said." If you're bent on ignoring me, what's... You know what? It's fine. It's fine." Evelyn scoffs, then beats the side of her lip." I'm just going to sit here and act a

"That's an order," John said, firmly. Evelyn smiled and did a courtesy. As "His Royal Highness commands, I will get dressed, she said, her tone was heightened with a hint of sarcasm. She took the clothes from the bed and then glanced at him. She was expecting him to give her some space, but when she noticed, he wasn't. She furrowed her brows at him."I have to get changed, you have to leave." She said snapping him from his thoughts.What? John said in a low tone.He gazed at Evelyn and she stared at him with a dead eye crossing her arms against her chest."Oh, don't tell me you plan on standing here till I... As I change my clothes." She shook her head and then a sigh escaped her lips."God, I never knew you were such a perv. She said." "I am not a perv," John replied.Then it finally dawned on him that he needed to excuse her so that she could get dressed. His cheeks were slightly flustered" Oh really? You're not a perv?" She chuckled."But if you were not, why on earth did you

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Evelyn. Their face grew in horror when she started choking and blood started coming out from her mouth.John couldn't hold himself any longer he rushed over to her side with a worried gaze."What's wrong with you."Evelyn doesn't answer him, she continues gasping for air.Her eyes widened in shock as she felt her airways constricting.Her eyes were spinning, she couldn't breathe, and her vision began to blur. When she heard John's voice she wanted to respond but all that came out was a faint gasp.John's face was contorted with a grave expression.He didn't understand what was going on.He gave her a gentle shake but it seemed to only worsen the case.His heart was panting fast in his chest and he was conflicted on what to do.If they were back in the city he could have easily rang Doctor Lee's cell and he could rushed down to the rescue.Now they were in the middle of the island with no medical personnel with them and it was going to take some time for
