I stood there, basking in the satisfaction of seeing Alison being escorted out of her clinic, handcuffed, and surrounded by police officers. It was exactly as I had requested, with every detail carefully planned to ensure that she felt the full weight of humiliation and defeat. This was my victory, my moment of triumph.

As Alison was pushed into the police car, our eyes met. Her expression was a mix of anger and fear, and I could immediately tell that she was on the verge of tears. But I couldn’t help but smile in satisfaction, relishing in the knowledge that I had finally given her a taste of pain and

humiliation.

I mouthed the words, “I warned you,” silently, punctuating my triumph. She gritted her teeth, helpless and defeated, unable to do anything to stop the consequences of her actions: a few years in jail and the loss of her medical license.

The police officers gave a curt nod in my direction, acknowledging the successful culmination of my plan. With Alison now in custody. I felt a sense of relief wash over me. She had chosen to be on the wrong side, and now she’ll pay dearly for it.

As the police car drove away, I turned to face Richard, who wore an amused expression. The corners of my mouth curled into a wide smile, a mix of excitement and pride. I couldn’t wait to hear him tell me how proud he was that I did everything on my own without asking for his help.

“Did I do a good job?” I asked. I recognized the childishness in my tone, but I couldn’t resist seeking validation from the person closest to me.

Richard chuckled, his eyes sparkling with something that could be mistaken for affection, but I knew better. With a gentle pat on my hair, he commended me for getting what I wanted. “You did a great job, Amber. I’m proud of you.”

His words warmed my heart, reinforcing the fact that this was not just my victory, but ours. At the end of the day, I couldn’t have done it without him.

In a moment of exhilaration and impulsiveness, I wrapped my arms around Richard’s waist, pulling hin into a tight hug. He seemed momentarily startled, unsure of how to react. After all, physical
