" " If I wasn't here , " I said through gritted teeth , " when would I have ever discovered the little love nest you've built for yourself ? All those years of pretending to be the perfect , loving husband... it must have been exhausting for you , Terence . " Raw panic flashed across his face . He started trying to explain , his words think ... " jumbled mess . " Amelia , listen to me , it's not what you " Terence ! " I cut him off , my voice sharp as a razor . I pointed to the still , unmoving figure on the ground . " Look . Do you know who that is ? " He followed my finger , and the color drained from his face . It was as if he'd seen a ghost . " Mom ? " he choked out . " Mom ! What hap pened ? " Everyone was stunned . Rose stared in disbelief . " Terence , darling ... she's really your mother ? Then who is this woman ? Is she ... Am- elia ?

Marco , remembering everything he had done , looked Terence had no time for any of them . He frantically called for the nearest emergency medical team to rush over .

Finally , she couldn't take it anymore and rounded on me . " Amelia , this is all you fault ! You deliberately hid your identities ! You alm- ost got Terence's mother killed ! What kind of sick game are you playing ? " she shrieked . " You're a vicious , toxic woman ! Terence doesn't love you ! You're boring and plain ! What do you have besides a good family name ? Get a clue and stop clinging to him ! He's mine ! " Terence grabbed her arm and shoved her away . " Shut up , Rose ! Amelia is my wife . That will never change . " He glared at her . " I war- ned you . If she ever found out about us , it was over . You need to leave . Now . " Rose latched onto him , tears streaming down her face . " Why ? Didn't you tell me that being with me was the only time you felt alive , the only time you felt passion ? You love me ! Why won't you admit it? " Terence shot a panicked look in my direction , then pushed her away again , this time with no gentleness . " Stop it ! We're finished . The only person I love is Amelia . Being with you was a mistake , a moment of weakness . " He gestured to his security team . " Get her out of here . " His men moved to grab her , but she clung to him , refusing to let go .
