“Adrian, this is a huge step. I leaving behind a lot. I am scared because I am not alone this time
I looked at my friend who came to see me off at the airstrip. My heart and mind were full of doubts,
insecurities and fear.
But the pain of heartbreak was unbearable.
“Theresa Vance, you should have chosen this path a long time ago but you still have time to live your life on your own terms. You have a kid to support and a stable job. This is your chance to move forward and have the life that you deserve.” Adrian tried to show me the future picture.
I sighed and wiped my tears. I looked around in the darkness of the night.
For the second time, I left Logan, the man who owned my heart but I knew we could never be on the same page because he failed to leave his past behind.
He still chose to believe the woman who tried to hurt his own child. This time I chose my child’s safety
over my love.
Yes, I still loved Logan because feelings can’t die in a day but I wanted my children to live a happy and safe life. With Logan, it was impossible because the phantom named Raelynn Cowper would never stop haunting my happiness.
“I’ll come soon to meet you. Best of luck, Tessa. I always wanted you to choose this line and now, when you’re ready to step into a bigger picture, I am very happy for you.” Adrian said and patted my arm.
“Thank you, Adrian. It was impossible for me if you haven’t supported me.” I smiled at him.
“As your friend, this is my duty. Now go before you husband tracks me down here.” He said.
Mention of Logan brought fresh tears in my eyes.
“Adrian, can I ask for one last favour?”
“Tessa, you don’t need to ask. Just say it ” He assured me with a smile.
“Please, keep an eye on Logan He must be devastated and Raelynn will surely try to use cheap tricks on him. Please, make sure that he doesn’t destroy himself My voice almost choked.
“He hates my guts, Tessa and he’d definitely come for my life once he finds you and your kids missing But for you, I can try my best.” He replied.
I nodded my head and he gave me a loose hug
“Your new life is waiting for you, Tessa I have made all the arrangements He won’t be able to find you out there. Your new identities will be confidential according to company rules There’s no record of you leaving the country as well.” He said.

“Okay.” I nodded my head.
With a heavy heart, I glanced around to say a final goodbye to the place where I spent twenty–five years of my life.
I got inside the private jet that Adrian arranged for me to leave the country.
I looked down at my finger where I wore my wedding ring for four years. I had left it with the letter that I wrote for Logan to say my goodbye to him. I hoped he’d realize what he had lost by investing his trust in wrong people again and again.
More tears streamed down from my eyes as the plane took off in high in the sky.
“Mommy, I also miss Dad but he needs to understand that he can’t disrespect you and choose bad auntie over you.” Lucas, who was siting on the right side of me, said in his innocent voice.
I looked at my son with blurry vision and a smile crept on the corner of my lips.
“Your Dad will hate me for taking you along with me, Luke.” I said.
He wiped my tears first.
