Chapter 1 The Dark and Stormy Night

As a storm raged outside, the lights flickered and then went out. Michelle was alone in the house, and she was scared. She heard the front door open, but no one was there. Suddenly, she heard footsteps on the stairs. Her heart started to race as the footsteps got closer. Then... the door to her room creaked open...

Michelle sat frozen in her bed as the door to her room slowly opened. She could hear someone breathing, but she couldn't see anyone in the darkness. The door creaked open a little further, and then a hand reached around the doorframe. A man stepped into the room, his face obscured by shadows. "Who are you?" she whispered. "I'm your worst nightmare," he said, his voice low and menacing.

Michelle's mind raced as she tried to think of what to do. Should she scream? Run? But she couldn't move, she was frozen with fear. The man stepped closer to her, and she could see his face now. It was a face she recognized, but it couldn't be... it was impossible. "No, it can't be you," she whispered. "Oh, but it is," he said with a sneer. "I've been waiting for this moment for a long time."

The man who stood before her was none other than her ex-boyfriend, Michael. They had broken up a year ago, and she had thought she had put him behind her. But here he was, in her room, in the middle of a stormy night. "What do you want?" she asked, her voice shaking. "I want you back," he said. "I never stopped loving you." She stared at him, not sure what to say. "You cheated on me," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I know, and I'm sorry," he said. "But I've changed,"I've been to therapy, I've worked on myself, and I know I can be a better man," he said. "I want to make things right between us. Please give me another chance." Michelle was stunned. She wasn't sure what to believe. Could he really have changed? Or was this just another manipulation? "I don't know if I can trust you," she said. "I understand," he said. "But I'm willing to do whatever it takes to earn your trust back." She thought for a moment, weighing her options. "I need some time to think," she said. "Of course"I'll give you all the time you need," he said. "But please, promise me one thing." She looked at him, curious. "What's that?" she asked. "Promise me that you'll be safe," he said. "There's a storm outside, and I'm worried about you." She was surprised by his concern. He had never been like this before. "I promise," she said. "Thank you," he said, and he turned to leave. "Wait," she said, before he could walk out the door. "What?" he asked, turning back to face her. "Will you stay with me until the storm is over?" she asked. He hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Of course," he said. He walked over to the couch and sat down. She sat next to him, and they sat in silence for a few minutes, listening to the rain outside. Finally, she spoke. "I'm glad you're here," she said. "Me too," he said. They sat in silence for a few more minutes, and then she spoke again. "Can I ask you a question?" she said. "Of course," he said. "What made you come here tonight?"

"I couldn't stop thinking about you," he said. "I missed you. I missed talking to you, I missed being with you. I missed everything about you. And I knew I had to come and tell you that." She looked at him, and she could see the sincerity in his eyes. "I've missed you too," she said. They sat in silence for a moment, and then he spoke again. "Can I ask you something?" he said. "Of course," she said. "Do you think we could ever go back to the way things were before?"

She thought about his question for a moment. "I don't know," she said finally. "I don't know if we can go back to the way things were before, but maybe we can start over and build something new." He looked at her, and she could see the hope in his eyes. "I'd like that," he said. "Me too," she said. They both sat there, unsure of what to say next. Finally, he spoke. "Can I ask you another question?" he said. "Sure," she said. "What do you want?" he asked.

She thought about his question for a moment. "I want a fresh start," she said. "I want to leave the past behind and start over. I want to be happy again." He looked at her, and she could see the understanding in his eyes. "I want that too," he said. "I want us to be happy." She smiled, and she felt a weight lift from her shoulders. "I think we can do that," she said. "I think we can be happy together." He smiled back at her. "I think so too," he said. They sat there, smiling at each other, and for the first time in a long time, they both felt a sense of hope. "Do you want to watch a movie?" he asked. "I'd love to," she said. He got up and put on a movie, and they sat together on the couch, watching it. They were both relaxed and comfortable, and they felt like they could finally breathe again. As the movie ended, they both looked at each other. "It's getting late," he said. "Do you want me to stay?" "Yes," she said. "I'd like that." He smiled, and they both settled in for the night.

The next morning, they both woke up to the sound of birds chirping outside the window. "Good morning," he said, smiling at her. "Good morning," she said, smiling back. They got up and made breakfast together, chatting and laughing as they did. After they ate, they went for a walk in the park. They strolled along, hand in hand, enjoying the fresh air and the sunshine. When they got home, they sat on the couch and talked for hours, catching up on everything they had missed. It was like they had never been apart.

Looking at the divorce papers my lips curled up into a mocking smile. 'How big fool I am? How can I think that he will give a chance to this marriage? How can I forget that I was nothing more a tool in his eyes to vent his anger until his beloved Tara is back. Since, she was back, how can he let me stay there?' "After you will sign these papers, you will receive 100 million dollars as alimony." the lawyer added. Because of his words, I came back to my senses took the pen from him, and signed the name. I have also gotten exhausted from this marriage both physically and mentally. Even though I had wanted my child to be born into a complete family, I didn't want my child to have a stepmother and live miserably like me for the rest of his life. After taking the papers from my hand, the lawyer gave me the bank card, turned around, and was about to leave when he paused at the door. He then turned around and added, "Mr. Carter said that he hoped that you won't pester him, or you have to bear the consequences." The lawyer's words were like a knife stabbing in my heart, but I still nodded. Anyway, I also don't plan to have anything to do with him anymore. I just want to live a good life with my children. After the lawyer left, the ward fell into silence. I placed my hand on my belly and said to my children, "Baby, I am sorry, Mommy can't give you a complete family! But I promise you, I will do my best to give the love of both mother and father." 'As for giving one of my child, I will never do that. They are my babies and my alone. I and I will give birth to all of them and raise them no matter what.' Four Years Later... Anya came back to the country with her three kids, to inherit the company left by his grandfather...
