Young and successful Edward Staulker, is an attorney with a very uneventful life.
He lost his faith in mankind many years ago-even as a child, he recognised the innate fakery borne by every Homo sapien and always resigned to a purer intercourse with the forest.
One day, he received a gift. But to accept this gift, he had to go on a journey; a journey that would change his life forever.

Jane Stanley, a university student, has had countless rough patches in her life. It's no wonder how she became a steadfast pessimist.
However, a little part of her still hopes that things will get better-a dream that fate dashes, the moment she crossed paths with this very strange man.

While the outcome of their meeting will require these two to tango; a third party, Fate, has joined the duo from behind the scenes. What happens when three try to tango?

When Jenissa Faras, a resilient and introspective university graduate, accepts a position as a secretary at Eden Technology, she believes it's a step forward in her career. However, her new job quickly turns into a living nightmare. Unbeknownst to her, her boss is none other than her former professor-a figure from her past who holds a chilling grudge against her. Years ago, Jenissa's testimony landed him in prison, and now, under the guise of a powerful corporate leader, he has re-entered her life with a single, disturbing objective: revenge. As Jenissa tries to build a future for herself in her new role, she finds herself relentlessly shadowed, her every move under his watchful eye. Her best friend, Emile, is thousands of miles away in Switzerland, and her sister, Jerina, is studying in the UK, leaving her more vulnerable than ever. With only her mother, Nancy, and younger brother, Jerrik, nearby, Jenissa is forced to confront her past alone as her stalker's psychological torment and twisted mind games escalate. She faces an unimaginable battle for her own safety, driven to protect her family and her sense of self. Trapped in a web of terror, Jenissa must summon every ounce of her strength to escape before the shadow that follows her turns deadly. ----------------Achievements ------------------ Ranked in pieceoflife #4 (24th November,2024) Ranked in pieceoflife #7 (3rd November,2024) Ranked in pieceoflife #5 (18th November,2024)

Then after a month or more of one-on-one sessions, they leave my office a reformed individual, a happy individual. EXCEPT THAT ISN'T WHAT HAPPENS. Someone IS killing my clients. The cops think I'm hiding something from them because I'm the ONLY thing connecting the victims of this killer. How do I prove I'm innocent, and all I want is for the murders to stop? Then the ANONYMOUS ENVELOPES start showing up. In each envelope is an item belonging to my dead client. The killer is reaching out. If I don't act quickly, another body will drop, AND IT WILL BE MY FAULT. 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩? 𝘼 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝙜𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙡𝙮 𝙢𝙪𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙩𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙨 𝙖 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙞𝙨𝙩 𝙙𝙤𝙬𝙣 𝙖𝙣 𝙞𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙜𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙥𝙖𝙩𝙝.
