BOOK1 Chapter6 But Linda was persistent. She whispered sweet nothings in his ear, eventually persuading him to go back inside. "Ryan, since you're the one asking for the divorce, you should be the one to talk to her." Linda smiled sweetly and pushed open the bedroom door. Then, she gasped. "Sophia… she's gone!" I watched, a silent observer, as Linda played her role to perfection. She had just had me buried in the backyard, yet she feigned innocence with remarkable skill. One of her hired men, pretending to be a witness, stepped forward. "Sir, Ma'am, I saw a woman climbing over the back fence just now. She looked pretty shady. And she left this behind…" He held out a blood-stained bracelet - the only gift Ryan had ever given me. Ryan glanced at it with disgust and knocked it away. "So, she was playing dead in the basement, and now she's sneaking out? That sneaky b**h! She thinks she can just fake her death and escape? I'll find her. She can't hide from me forever!" Ryan was livid. He immediately dispatched a hundred security guards to search for mne. Just as the guards were leaving, a fleet of cars arrived, surrounding the mansion. It was my brother, Ethan. He rushed towards Ryan, his face etched with worry. "Where is Sophia?" Despite his dislike for me, Ryan still had to be somewhat respectful of my brother. He sneered. "Well, well, if it isn't Ethan. Your sister decided to play a little game of hide-and-seek. She faked her death and ran off. I've already sent my men to look for her. She hasn't gone back to your family?" Ethan frowned, unconvinced. "Impossible. Sephia loves you, Ryan. She's endured so much pain these past eight years, and I couldn't convince her to leave. Why would shie BOOK1 Chapter6 run away now?" He stared Ryan down. "Tell me the truth, Ryan. What did you do to her?" Ryan scoffed. "That lying b**h! She's nothing but a manipulative gold digger. She tried to frame Linda, and I simply put her in the basement for a little time out. She throws a tantrum and runs away? Ethan, are you sure you know your sister as well as you think you do?" Ethan's face paled, his eyes burning with anger. He grabbed Ryan by the collar. "Ryan, I'm asking you one more time. What did you do to my sister?" Ethan looked ready to punch Ryan's lights out. Ryan held up the bracelet, a smug grin on his face. "Recognize this, Ethan? Sophia wore this bracelet for eight years, never took it off. But she was so desperate to get away from me, she even left it behind." Ryan's smile turned cruel. "Maybe she's wanted to leave for a long time, Ethan. She chose to run, so I'll let her. Good riddance." Ethan stared at the bracelet in disbelief. My heart ached. I couldn't even cry anymore. Linda had ripped that bracelet off my wrist as they were burying me. I had worn it until my dying breath. Title: ReelTalk EP8- From Hinge to Unhinged Join host Rachel Bencosme as she delves into Sarah's dating escapades in the latest episode of ReelTalk.
