Chapter 5 - Mark Remembers The Day He Lost Everything Forever
Memories of that rainy Tuesday six years ago flashed through Mark’s mind like a cinematic nightmare.
Sarah had packed her bags after a heated argument, leaving behind her wedding ring and this exact locket.
Jessica, who had been Sarah’s close friend at the time, had stepped in to comfort him during his deepest grief.
Within a year, Jessica had moved into the mansion, married him, and slowly cut ties with all of Sarah’s family.
He had believed she was an angel who saved him from the dark abyss of profound loneliness.
Now, staring at the locket in his palm, Mark realized Jessica had orchestrated Sarah’s disappearance from the start.
“You didn't just comfort me after she left, did you?” Mark whispered, taking a slow step toward her.
“You engineered the entire separation so you could step into her life and take her place.”
