Chapter 2 - The Arrogant Husband
The cinematic tension in the hospital room spiked to a suffocating, paralyzing level.
Nia stood her ground, firmly placing herself between the toxic couple and the hospital bed. She reached back, gently wrapping her hand around her bruised daughter’s trembling fingers, offering absolute, unbreakable protection.
"You're not getting anywhere near her," Nia stated. Her voice was cold, steady, and entirely devoid of human mercy.
Ryan scoffed, his face turning red with arrogant rage. He leaned in aggressively, pointing his finger directly at Nia's face, inches from her nose.
"Get out of my way!" Ryan yelled, trying to physically intimidate her. "You're just a clerk! I have legal rights to be in this room, and I’m taking my wife home today."
From the doorway, Morgan let out a cruel, mocking laugh. The mistress adjusted her red dress, entirely convinced that they had successfully gotten away with a brutal crime.
"She didn't tell you the truth," Morgan scoffed, rolling her eyes in pure disgust. "She fell down the stairs. She’s just being dramatic to get attention because Ryan is leaving her."
