Her Return, His Regret by Natie

The familiar voice sent a chill down Lora's spine.

"Ivy?" She asked, squinting her eyes to see properly.

The woman crouched down to meet Lora's stunned gaze, her sharp facial features becoming clear.

She had a wicked smile on her lips and her eyes glinted with murderous intent.

"The one and only," Ivy remarked, smirking wickedly.

Lora's eyes widened into saucers. She asked, "You can walk?"

Ivy laughed out loud. She shook her head and stood up straight before walking somewhere to turn on the lights. Looking at Lora's wide eyes, she said, "Of course I can walk. What did you think? That I'm disabled? Is that why you thought you could steal Ryan from me?" "I never stole anyone from you-"

"Oh, but you did! Everything was going well until you showed up! I hate you as Lora and I hated you as Larisa!" Ivy yelled hysterically. "Do you know what I did to make Ryan notice me? Who do you think you are to drop from nowhere and steal his heart so easily?" Lora frowned, not understanding Ivy at all. Ryan had always loved Ivy. That was a fact that Lora knew even before she got married to him after their one-night stand.

So, why was she here accusing her of stealing his heart when she's the one who Ryan has always loved? He even chose to save her six years ago...

"Look, Ivy, I don't know why you're acting like this, but Ryan and I are over. He's never going to find out I'm Larisa and you two will get married soon. There's no need for this," Lora uttered, hoping Ivy would get it in her head.

However, Ivy glared at Lora with hatred. She scoffed and said, "He couldn't go through with the engagement because he found out that you're missing! It's your fault that my day was ruined and for that, I'll make sure you die and stay dead."

She sneered and added, "How dare you fake your death and give birth to Ryan's children? This time I'll make sure you disappear forever!"

Lora looked around, trying to find an object that she could use to defend herself. However, there was nothing nearby. Instead of fighting with Ivy, she decided to try to reason with her. After all, she couldn't die here... she had children to take care of and her parents would be heartbroken.

"Look, I know you feel you need to get rid of me but have you thought about the consequences? You won't get away with this," Lora remarked. "Do you want to spend the rest of your life in jail?"

Ivy laughed out loud. She got closer and remarked, "I've already gotten away with it. No one will find you here... so, you will die with the secret that I killed you and Ryan will never know that I can walk. You won't get a chance to say goodbye to your little bastards but don't worry, I'll make sure I give them the life they deserve."

She yelled, "Don't you dare go near my children,
