Eric scrambled onto the bed, his breath coming in quick gasps. There was no scent of alcohol in the air.
Kelly had only used water to intimidate them.
“Lunatic! She’s lost her mind!” Dawn’s voice trembled as she cried out.
Kelly walked into the living room, her eyes fixed on the papers in her hands.
A signature would not be enough. Without an official filing at the civil affairs office, it would mean nothing.
“Daddy, I want cake.” Faye sat up, her small fingers combing through her damp hair. “Why is it all wet?”

arms.
At the door, he turned back, anger burning in his gaze as he looked at Kelly.
Dawn muttered under her breath, but she dared not stay in the same room as Kelly. She followed Eric out. Kelly only smiled, saying nothing.
By mid–afternoon, unease gnawed at Eric.
“Mom, I can’t shake this feeling.” He pressed his fingers to his temple. “After what happened this morning, I don’t even want to go home.”
They sat on a weathered bench in the small park beneath the apartment complex.
Dawn clicked her tongue. “Why did you sign the papers Why would you hand over that money?” It had never been theirs to begin with. Kelly’s parents had left it to her.
“Mom, it was part of the marriage. Legally, I get half. Without a will, she can’t fight it. Even if she brings in the best lawyers, she has no case. That contract? It’s worthless without notarization.” Eric’s voice stayed low, measured.
Dawn exhaled. “Even half of anything is too much for her.”
“Mom… it was hers to start with. We got lucky to take anything at all.” Eric’s shoulders sagged as he let out a deep sigh.
The real problem was the house. He couldn’t buy it back, not with the current owner holding onto it. And even if he had the money, Kelly might refuse to sell.
“Just get this woman out of your life. Let her take her half and be done with it,” Dawn snapped.
Eric leaned back, staring up at the gray sky. way.”

But after today… After sending her to the hospital…
After seeing what Beau was willing to do… He had no choice.

His own future hung in the balance, but none of it mattered as much as Faye. She would always come first.
“And what about Regina?” Dawn’s voice softened. “Are we giving up on the statement?”
Even the best legal team wouldn’t be able to keep her out of prison without it.
Eric exhaled, his voice hoarse with exhaustion. His bloodshot eyes burned. “Let the Lynches handle their own mess. I’m done.”
Dawn gave a firm nod. “That’s right. We’re not getting involved. Faye is the only thing that matters.”
Eric’s phone buzzed.
It was Kelly.
His fingers curled around the device as he answered. “Kelly…”
“Come to City Hall. The divorce papers need notarization,” she said, her tone steady, almost detached.
Eric’s expression hardened. “Not now. I’m busy. I’ll do it in a few days.”
He was buying time.
“I’m at City Hall with Faye,” Kelly replied, her voice softening.
A small voice cut through the line, urgent and pleading “Daddy! Daddy, we’re at City Hall! This bad lady said she won’t leave our house unless you come sign the papers!”
Eric shot to his feet, his face drained of color. “Kelly… How did you get Faye?”
“I brought our marriage certificate and family registration to her school,” Kelly said lightly. “She’s registered under my name, after all. She came with me without a fuss.”
Eric’s grip tightened around the phone. He had been careless. Even after everything, he hadn’t moved Faye’s registration.
His breath caught in his throat. “I’m coming now. Don’t touch her.”
Kelly let out a quiet laugh. “It’s come to this, hasn’t it, Eric? We can’t even have a conversation without threats.”
Eric’s jaw clenched.
“Do you know how Lucas’s men handle hostages in Solmaris?” Kelly continued, her voice steady and cold. “They snatch children from wealthy families, record a ransom video, and the moment they get paid, they dump the kids in the desert. Some die of thirst. Some burn under the sun. Their bodies are never found.”
A chill ran down Eric’s spine.
“I was once tied to a flagpole for disobedience,” Kelly murmured. “Have you ever felt your skin blister and neel under the sun? Or your lins crack so badly that vo drink your own blood just to keep your throat

She refused to waste another moment on him.

to come.
Now
Eric wasn’t thinking about anything else. Only his daughter.
Kelly laughed softly, almost bitterly.
At herself.
At the absurdity of it all.
That in Solmaris, she had survived by holding onto the thought of Eric.

City Hall.
When Eric arrived, Faye was asleep in Kelly’s arms. She raised a finger to her lips, her other hand resting lightly on Faye’s neck. “Relax. It was just a piece of candy. I know exactly how much to give.“.
Eric’s fists clenched. “You’re insane.”
“Let’s finish this.” Kelly shifted Faye in her arms and walked to the desk where she had made the appointment.
The clerk slid the papers across the counter.
Eric hesitated, a storm of thoughts racing through his mind.
He had wanted to keep Kelly’s inheritance.
But once this was notarized, his claim in court would weaken.
Yet Faye was in Kelly’s hands.
He ground his teeth and signed.
Kelly Mad no family, no support, no money for a top legal team. If this went to trial, she wouldn’t walk away with much.
