233–Time To Take My Man Back
Yuvonne:
“You need to eat something in order to have strength to fight and take your man back from that witch,” my mother grunted as she held the fruit bowl near my mouth.
I kept staring at the wall in front of me in silence. My knees were pulled up to my chest as I hugged them while sitting on the couch.
I could not remember how many hours I had cried. I did not know if I had even blinked or slept last night.
I could not.
Thinking that it was their first night, I had wild thoughts, and every time I imagined her touching him, anger rose in me hard enough to burn anyone alive.
“That is not fair,” I said to my mother, sniffling.
“She does not deserve him,” I uttered, unable to look at her because I knew that the moment I did, I would lose
control.
I started to rock back and forth.
“Well, it is all your fault,” my mother snapped at me once again.
But I kept rocking.
“I know. And you know what, mother, you were right. My friends are not responding to me, none of them checked on me,” I said, feeling my eyelids grow heavier.
“I told you, those are rich ladies, they do not care about anyone,” my mother stated and I began to nod.
“Well, they will have to care about me, mother, or else I will ruin their worlds too. Like mine is ruined,” I hissed, my fist clenching tightly.
“Forget about them. You do not need to fight with them. Remember, you do not have a Baxter to defend you or protect you from these powerful people right now,” my mother reminded.
As soon as she said that, I snapped my head toward her, and tears began to roll down my face.
The realization that Baxter was gone was making me lose my mind.
“You know, she will be filling his ears with poison. I am sure she will have him all riled up about me being the one who leaked those diary pages,” I said as my lips began to quiver.
“I know she will be doing it. Madeline is that way, she is very negative. The entire night she will be speaking about you,” my mother agreed.
She then touched my shoulder gently.
“I will say I was the one who leaked it, okay? No blame will come to you,” she told me.
I began to shake my head. Previously, it was my father who took the blame for my actions.
But this time, who was I going to accuse?
If I accused my mother, it would give Baxter a reason to stay away from our family because it was too toxic.

That was when my mother’s phone started to ring. She stared at it and grunted.
“Your mother–in–law has been calling you for a while, and now she is ringing my phone. We need to answer her. She is our only connection to Baxter right now,” my mother muttered.
She placed her hand on my shoulder, shaking me awake and speaking in a whisper that sounded like a plan.
Lady Eugenia must have found out what her son has done.
And I am pretty sure she will hate the idea, because she does not like Madeline.
I could always tell. She is not very fond of you, but Madeline, she hates her.
I quickly grabbed my mother’s phone and put it on speaker, gesturing for her to talk.
“Hello?”
The moment my mother answered, Lady Eugenia began to ramble.
“Where is your daughter? Have I not handed my son over to her? How did she lose him?”
The woman was screaming her head off.
For a moment, I wanted to end the call, but then I saw an opportunity through her.
“My daughter has been crying. She is very sick. She tried her best, but you know your son better than us. He is stubborn, and Madeline, we know her more than you do. She is clever. She used her children to emotionally pressure him into helping her,” my mother explained.
Lady Eugenia grunted loudly on the other side.
“And who released those diary pages and those rumors at the exact time of her wedding?” she yelled.
