When There Is Nothing Left But Love

“I’m the owner!” I then showed them my identity card and land title. “This lady entered my house without my permission. Look, she even broke quite a number of valuable items. Please help me, officers.”

“All right, Ms. Stovall. Are you hurt anywhere?” one of the cops asked as he gave me back the documents.

I shook my head.

Perhaps, Rebecca had never experienced this kind of humiliation. Her eyes glowed with a towering rage as she snarled, “You b*tch!”

The cops hurriedly took her away.

I looked at the mess in the living hall and let out a deep sigh. Instead of cleaning the broken vases, however, I simply went straight back to my room.

I jumped right into bed after taking a shower.

All of a sudden, I heard the doorbell ring loudly. At first, I ignored it, thinking that my mind was playing tricks on me.

However, the doorbell rang for the second time a few moments after.

I got out of bed and headed downstairs, wondering who had come to disturb me at this hour.

I looked at the surveillance camera and saw Jared dressed in a black suit, standing outside the door.
