The thought that Shirley might harm her in some way sent shivers of fear down my spine, leaving me to wrestle with growing anxiety. I was about to leave when a firm hand stopped me.

Caleb stood before me, his annoyance clear. “Debra, where do you plan to go after vanishing like that?” he demanded.
His eyes then turned to Andrew, his brow furrowed in suspicion. “And who might Abby be?” he added.
But my mind was elsewhere, with Abby, not here to sort through explanations or suspicions. I withdrew my hand briskly. “Why should my matters concern you? Thanks for the help, Mr. Wright, but stay out of my personal issues.”

With no time to waste, I slid into the car.
Andrew, ever the diplomat, gave Caleb a polite nod. “Sir, Debra is my fiancee. We have urgent affairs to manage. We’re grateful for your assistance. Till next time, perhaps.”
He joined me in the car, swift and decisive.
Caleb watched, a mix of disbelief and surprise etched on his face, struggling to grasp Andrew’s words.
As we prepared to depart, Shirley emerged from her trance, a plea on her lips. “Andrew!”
Her desperation was palpable, but Andrew was resolute, signaling the driver. “Let’s go.”
Shirley stood there, motionless.
I couldn’t help but feel a sense of retribution, watching as Shirley, who had tormented me and even sought to kill me, was rejected by the man she cherished.
Shirley deserved what happened to her.
Her vendetta against me had only served to push Andrew further away.
It served her right.
But then… I turned back to look at Caleb.
His expression, one of dismay and confusion, stirred an unexpected unease within me.
But the moment passed, the car speeding us into the embrace of the forest, leaving behind nothing but the receding figures and the tangle of trees.
Ivy complained, “You might have been a bit too harsh with Caleb, no matter how worried you are about Abby. He did save you, and you have to admit, the man has looks.”
Mulling over her words, I posed a question to her. “Ivy, in your view, what exactly is Caleb to me?”
Ivy didn’t miss a beat. “He’s got to be your long-lost husband. Look at him-gorgeous and not at all like the rest.”
Her reasoning flowed uninterrupted. “We should’ve stayed with Caleb a bit longer. With our memories in pieces, he might hold the key. You two have a past. It’s clear. We ought to have dug deeper.”
Conviction laced her voice as she concluded, “He could be the missing piece in our puzzle, the one to bring back what we’ve forgotten.”
