Chapter: 102: Lost Memories "Sofia, so you have finally decided to leave this house for good?" A loud voice sounded in the room, and soon the smashing of objects followed. Her little sister, Abigail winced. To her, it was a norm. Her mother's hysteria, coercion, and in the end, her guilt. Abigail sighed. She knew what the outcome would be if she let it continue. "Yes, I want to leave, and I will leave." Sofia was hell-bent. One of the reasons she wanted to escape was this. Ever since he left, her mother was never the same. For years, she tried to get her mother to accept reality. That she had to learn to live without him. However, it all went in vain. Her mom never understood. He was her everything to the point that her daughters had no value in her eyes. Everything started with him. Everything also ended with him. "You aren't going anywhere! I dare you to leave!" "Watch me." Sofia shrugged. "No! You can't leave. You will not leave." Helene Roderick grabbed her daughter's arm. A hysteric glint flashed i

Chapter: 101: The Suspicious Nurse "Excuse me, Miss?" Someone shook her. Blinking her eyes open, she was greeted by a man in a white coat. She was a little dazed."Huh?"The light was encircling the place when she came to her senses completely and moved her neck which hurt. Sleeping in a chair and that too on a cold night with no blanket made her body freeze in some places.Albeit the area she was in was a secluded corner– away from the hospital, still, she could hear the faint bustling of people, the stomping of their hurried feet, and the sounds of wheelchairs screeching on the floor.Last night it was all too quiet that she forgot she was in a hospital and slept. One short nap became a thorough sleep and the long night evolved into a day.Her phone buzzed.Mumbling an 'excuse me', she checked her phone to see 6 missed calls from home and got worried."Hello?""Ria, we're trying to reach out to you but you weren't answering." Nanny Mary's voice filled with concern greeted her. "Is everything alright there?""Yes, yes

Chapter: 100: It's All My Fault 2 Days Later.The City Hospital. 8:28 pm."Mom! Where's mom?"The doctors and patients who were in the hospital gazed at her strangely. Zaria Smith did not care about anything.The only words that were playing in her mind like a reel were that her mother-in-law collapsed. A mother-in-law who loved her more than anything in this world.And she could be- No, she was the reason she was in danger."Young Madam, you're here!" In the waiting room, an old woman stood up.Nanny Mary hugged Zaria. Slipping into a familiar embrace, Zaria felt calm and her breathing turned even. Her voice was very low, lacking energy."I don't see Dad here.""Old Master Anderson is with the doctor discussing Madam's tumour."Zaria sucked a breath."What happened to Mom, Nanny Mary? How could she collapse all of a sudden?"Nanny Mary's grip on Zaria loosened and she sighed."Old Madam... She was thinking very hard these past few days. Her expression was also not happy. Perhaps she was under some unknown stress."

Chapter: 98: She Collapsed Zaria Smith knew the moment she saw this woman named Christina Norman, she was going to be a thorn in her relationship with Elian. For 3 days, Zaria did not see Elian and Christina. She had no idea what they were doing. As she passed by the hallway, she heard the low whispers of the servants, their eyes following her and observing her moves as if she were a criminal who had done a heinous crime. Were they blaming her for Christina's state? Was it Ria who forced Christina to eavesdrop on her conversation with her husband, Elian Anderson? Deep in her thoughts, she did not realise she had bumped into Sebastian. Startled, Zaria shook her head, her mind disturbed. "I wasn't looking clearly. Forgive me, Uncle Sebastian." "Young Madam, I..." "What is the matter, Uncle Sebastian? Why are you so pale?" Zaria was getting worried. Why was he so quiet? Butler Sebastian was silent as he kept his gaze low. "Is it about Elian?" "Young Madam, you have to promise me that you must stay calm

Chapter: 97: He Will Leave Me 'I will finally talk to him! I can't tolerate her presence anymore. Humph, if she has no recollection of 2 years ago, she better make new memories if she can't recover the old ones.' Zaria was thinking when she stilled and watched the scene unfolding. "Elian, you're back!" Christina leapt into Elian's arms happily. "Mmh." "When are you planning to bring your friends here, Elian? I haven't seen them for a long time and I want to meet them." Zaria was in disbelief. This Christina had met them, but Zaria.. Elian had never introduced his friends to her. Not even a simple description of how they might have looked like. He always had dinner outside the house when he visited his friends. "They are busy nowadays," Elian answered and tried to separate himself from Christina but she would not budge. "Well, forget them. Do you feel the difference here?" "..." "Ugh, look around! I have changed everything." Only after that, Elian's dark eyes went to every corner. "The previous setting w

Chapter: 45: Not Your DogI wore a grey coloured coat suit with my hair tied up in a slick bun. A mahogany prada bag accompanying me.As soon as I stepped out of the car, I was greeted by La Vantié's manager and several waiters.I grimaced after seeing a flowery path ahead, consisting of rose petals.Why is he so extra?"My dear wife," Aaron quickly stood up with an annoying smirk, checking me out shamelessly."Contracted wife," I hiss, not bothering to hide my contempt for him."Be careful or the deal is off," Aaron's smile was gone as he looked around for the paparazzi spying on us.I sneered.What a two-faced man.But if it weren't for him, Empire wouldn't be saved. So I owed it to him."Do you seriously think I need you?" Keeping calm, I whispered but the hint of anger had not f

Chapter: 44: Dead"When do you believe she can wake up?" Unfamiliar raspy words rang in the room."She's a pretty thing, eh? Even with her eyes covered." A rough hand grazed my cheek. Another person.2 unknown people. Oh, God."Knock it off, you b*stard. The boss said she's a kid. Don't touch her." Person 1 grumbled."Her ID card says she's 18 now," Person 2 snickered. "It's not wrong to have a taste of a ripe fruit."I made an effort to open my eyes. I got despondent when I realised that I could not. I was blindfolded.I wanted to cry. No voice came out.I wanted to move. But my hands and legs were tied.Where were the others?Sarah, Jackson, Ben?Were they okay?My breathing almost stopped and I showed no movement, feeling the environment around me.

Chapter: 43: The 18th Birthday "Vicky, relax. Everything will turn out great. I and Jackson have prepared everything. Just take a deep breath," Sarah said in a comforting tone.I gripped the cell phone harder while biting my lower lip in nervousness. I looked at the heels on my bed.It was my 18th birthday and my friends wanted to take me somewhere.What if I trip? These hellish heels aren't going to help. Maybe, I should go for sneakers.Why must I wear something so– so spicy like I am going to get laid or something!God, what will happen if dad ever finds out about me going to the club?I already have a bad relationship with him nowadays, if he sees me going to a club he's gonna be so livid.Should I just ditch?"Vicky, chill out, s

Chapter: 42: Wedding Gift "Here," I offered Aaron an ointment and turned my eyes away from Aaron's face. We were in his office, sitting on his black leather couch. Plain simple but comfortable. He appeared composed after suffering from Uncle Max's heavy punch on the corner of his mouth.But I noticed he was wincing from time to time as he attempted to open his mouth. Seems like Mr Know-it-all was a human too.The area was bruised and the lip had a cut. Uncle did not look sturdy. Rather he was lean, but the strength in his fist said otherwise.If it were another time, I would have enjoyed this pain of his certainly."You don't have to do this.""Indeed, I don't have to," I sighed with dejection, "But I'm partially responsible. So refrain from speaking and let me help." My tone had no room for an argument."...Alright." Aaron finally shut up and I began to clean his mouth."Mr Atkins-" I stopped my sentence midway when a smirk broke into his face, and I coughed, embarrassed. Pr*ck.He deserved the punch."You.

Chapter: 41: Your Uncle is a DevilMaximus Leinster. A person who never once crossed my mind when I made plans, was here in the flesh."You're back 2 weeks earlier, Uncle." I walked up to him.His tall figure donning a black coat while wearing a greyish turtleneck, became clear. He put down his luggage and assessed me like he always did when he came back."Oh, is this supposed to be a bad thing considering how pale you look?" He tilted his head, his moves slow and phlegmatic."No, it isn't. I'm just... astounded. It would have been great had you informed me in advance," I said slowly."That's fine. I simply wanted to surprise my pretty niece," Uncle Max waved his hand in dismay, suddenly smiling lazily. "Anyways, what are we having here? A party?"He observed the surroundings keenly. Taking in the sight of the well-decorated lawn. His eyes were of a hawk. Observation skills were one of his strong suits.Did I tell the lawn attached at the back was a part of our old house property where Grandfather and his children use

Chapter: 40: Good Kick "Today we are gathered here to witness the matrimonial ceremony taking place between Miss Ford and..." I could not take a good look at the people I knew. Jackson had a sour/betrayed face. Michael and Stacy's faces wore grim looks. Uncle Victor had some emergency regarding the troublemaker trio, so he could not come. Sarah's lips were pursed. And Ben? He was not even here. What happened in the cemetery, should not have occurred. Ben had a pained expression, something I had never seen him wearing except for the time he lost to me by one mark in our biology quiz. I was sad inside my heart, stoicism seen from my face, and blank when it came to mind. Marriage. This word kept on repeating like a broken record. I was getting married today. Victoria Ford was getting married, and people were cheering her on for it. Media coverage. News broadcasting of our marriage on television. "Sweetheart," A charming and irritating whisper invaded my ears. "You don't think you could have gone
