Chapter 74

Damian's POV

The view was way too familiar to pose it as fate. Lisa was so sneaky, so smart and so calculative, she knew I would come back to this store after the message she sent. She knew I would be startled by the revelation.

Now I felt like a pawn on a board that she rules over. I held the wheels, and I rested my head on it. My life is a joke! Ha! A damn joke. I could not contain it anymore, and I let it all out. I cackled loudly with tears pricking the corners of my eyes. So she was truly alive. 

She saw herself being proclaimed dead, and she used it as an opportunity to hide in plain sight. She left with my kids, she left with nothing, and she watched everything unfold throughout the years. Why? And now she was back from her little hideout; she must be bored with all the hiding, so she found her way back to our lives like a thief she stole everything.
