He's always done everything to make her happy and when I complain he would always say, “She saved my life, Amber, without her I won’t be here. We owe her everything.”
How had I been so blind as to see that his affection for her had gotten intimate and my marriage was all a lie?!
My husband and his so-called sister were lovers. They had a child together. Now another is on the way. And they killed my sweet little boy to keep their secret.
My hands trembled as I grabbed my phone. With tears blurring my eyes, I unblocked a number I had buried seven years ago.
The line clicked. “Roy…” My voice broke. “Please, I need your help. I’m going to divorce Jason Morales. Please get me out of here… help me take revenge on him.”
There was silence, and then his calm and sharp voice came. “Why should I help you, Amber? You abandoned me seven years ago.”
The memory stabbed me fresh, my father had once chosen Roy for me—a safe, strong choice. But I had walked away. For love. For Jason.
And now love has ruined me.
“Please, Roy,” I sobbed into the phone. “I’ll do anything. I’ve lost everything… they’ve taken everything from me.”
