KABANATA 33: Full Circle

When Melissa invites her friend Kyla to join their friend group, she has no idea she’s unknowingly feeding her to a wolf in disguise. Chester, a man who seems perfect—sweet, adventurous, attentive—falls for Kyla. But there’s a catch: he’s married with five children. Kyla, completely unaware of Chester's real identity, falls for the man he pretends to be. But when the truth unravels, the world labels her "the mistress." In reality, she was just another victim of a man too skilled at lying… A confrontation with Evelyn, a scandal in the office, and betrayal so deep it leaves scars—Kyla must fight not just for her dignity but to prove she never wanted to be part of someone else’s tragedy. This isn’t a story of stolen love—it’s a story of stolen truth. DISCLAIMER This is a work of fiction inspired by true emotional experiences. Any resemblance to real persons is purely coincidental... unless you feel guilty, in which case—baka kailangan mo ng konsensya, hindi abugado. “Sometimes, you don’t steal someone’s man—he just lied his way into your life and forgot to mention he already had a queen... and five kids.” — The Accidental Mistress
