Triangle of Temptation

chapter 39 : abandoned

As Raze prepared to depart from the Philippines, her heart heavy with the weight of her decision, she knew that filing for annulment was the first step towards reclaiming her independence and moving forward with her life.

With the paperwork completed and the legal proceedings set in motion, Raze felt a sense of relief wash over her. Though the process would undoubtedly be long and arduous, she knew that it was necessary to untangle herself from the remnants of her failed marriage.

As she boarded the plane bound for Malta, leaving behind the familiar sights and sounds of the Philippines, Raze felt a mixture of sadness and anticipation. She was leaving behind a chapter of her life that had brought her both joy and pain, but she was also embarking on a new journey, one filled with possibilities and opportunities for growth.

And though she knew that the road ahead would be challenging, Raze faced it with a sense of determination and resilience. She was ready to leave the past behind her and embrace whatever the future held in store, knowing that she was finally taking control of her destiny

As Raze arrived in Malta, the weight of her past still heavy on her shoulders, she wasted no time in taking action. With a determined stride, she made her way to the real estate office, intent on transferring ownership of the house that had once been her sanctuary with Trev. With the paperwork completed and the keys to her new home in hand, Raze felt a sense of liberation wash over her. This house would be a fresh start, a clean slate upon which she could build a new life for herself, free from the shadows of her past. 

Real Estate Agent: "Congratulations, Ms. Raze. The transfer of ownership has been completed. Here are the keys to your new home."

Raze: Accepts the keys with a grateful smile "Thank you. It's a relief to have this step behind me."

Real Estate Agent: "I understand completely. Starting fresh can be incredibly liberating. Is there anything else I can assist you with?"

Raze: pauses for a moment, her gaze drifting to the house Trev had bought "Actually, there is. I need to ensure that no one else is harmed by what I'm about to do."

Real Estate Agent: concerned "I see. Please, let me know if there's anything I can do to help."

Raze: nodding, her expression determined "Thank you. I'll take care of it from here."

As Raze arrived in Malta, the weight of her past still heavy on her shoulders, she wasted no time in taking action. With a determined stride, she made her way to the real estate office, intent on transferring ownership of the house that had once been her sanctuary with Trev.

With the paperwork completed and the keys to her new home in hand, Raze felt a sense of liberation wash over her. This house would be a fresh start, a clean slate upon which she could build a new life for herself, free from the shadows of her past.

As Raze settled into her new home, surrounded by the echoes of her past and the promise of a fresh start, she made a conscious decision to move forward, to embrace the uncertainty of the future with courage and determination.

Though the wounds of her past still lingered, she refused to let them define her. Instead, she focused on the present moment, finding solace in the simple routines of daily life.

Each morning, she woke with a renewed sense of purpose, ready to face whatever challenges lay ahead. She took pleasure in the small joys of homemaking, from brewing her morning coffee to tending to the plants that adorned her windowsill.

As the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, Raze found herself gradually letting go of the pain and heartache that had once held her captive. In their place, she discovered a newfound sense of resilience and inner strength, a testament to the power of perseverance and self-discovery.

Though the road ahead was still uncertain, Raze faced it with quiet confidence, knowing that she was no longer alone. She had weathered the storm of her past and emerged on the other side, stronger and more determined than ever before.

And as she looked out at the world beyond her window, Raze felt a sense of gratitude wash over her. She was alive, she was free, and she was ready to embrace whatever the future had in store.

As Trev arrived in Malta, his heart heavy with the weight of regret and longing, he made his way to the house he once shared with Raze, hoping against hope that she would still be there, waiting for him.

But as he approached the familiar facade of the house, his heart sank at the sight of the seemingly abandoned. Confusion and disbelief coursed through him as he hurriedly approached the real estate office nearby.

Real Estate Agent: greeting Trev with a sympathetic smile "Mr. Trev, I'm sorry to inform you that Ms. Raze is no longer living in the house. The ownership has been transferred back to you."

Trev: shocked and bewildered "Back to me? But... where is she? What happened?"

Real Estate Agent: sighing softly "I'm afraid I don't have all the details, Mr. Trev. All I know is that Ms. Raze transferred ownership and moved out some time ago."

Trev's heart sank even further as he realized the gravity of the situation. Raze had left him, and he had no idea why or where she had gone.

Trev: feeling a sense of desperation welling up inside him "Please, is there any way I can find her? Any information at all?"

Real Estate Agent: shaking his head regretfully "I'm sorry, Mr. Trev. I wish I could help you, but I'm afraid I don't know where she went."

As Trev left the real estate office, his mind reeling with unanswered questions, he couldn't shake the sinking feeling that he had lost Raze for good. As he wandered the streets of Malta, searching for any trace of the woman he loved, he vowed to do whatever it took to find her and make things right, no matter the cost.

As Trev wandered the streets of Malta, his heart heavy with the weight of uncertainty and regret, he couldn't shake the feeling of emptiness that consumed him. Each passing moment without Raze by his side felt like an eternity, and he knew that he couldn't rest until he found her and made amends for his past mistakes.

Despite the odds stacked against him, Trev refused to give up hope. With determination fueling his every step, he embarked on a quest to track down Raze, scouring the city for any sign of her presence.

But as the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, Trev's search yielded no results. Raze remained elusive, her whereabouts unknown, leaving him to wonder if he would ever find her again.

With each passing day, the weight of his regret grew heavier, weighing on his soul like an anchor dragging him down into the depths of despair. He knew that he had let Raze slip through his fingers and the thought of never being able to make things right haunted him day and night.

But despite the overwhelming sense of loss that threatened to consume him, Trev refused to give up hope. He clung to the belief that love had the power to conquer even the greatest of obstacles, and he vowed to continue his search for Raze, no matter how long it took.

As he walked the streets of Malta, his heart filled with longing and determination, Trev knew that he would stop at nothing to find the woman he loved and win back her trust, even if it meant facing his darkest fears and confronting the demons of his past. For Raze was the beacon of light that guided him through the darkness, and he would do whatever it took to bring her back into his arms once more.
