Beautiful and Healed(Book 2)

Lucy POVTomorrow is my last day here in jail and it seems like I was locked in here for only a week. Time passed by so fast and my five years of staying here will finally soon end. I was convicted of a case I didn't do and it's ironic right, that I was the one who takes all the blame where both of them are having the good times of their life together with my son. I clenched my fist in anger. While looking at the pile of bars in front of me, I feel like a murderer for five years. Life is unfair. If you're poor, you're always poor, if you're rich, you will become richer. Just wait and the world will soon be mine. "Hey, Lucy, weren't you excited? We're now free at last tomorrow!" Cassandra sat beside me with a smile on her face. I can see how happy she was and waited for this day to come. Arian and Gwen only stared at us like jealous neighbors. They became good to me after the incident they never forget. 

Two months earlier...Lucy heard a familiar voice behind her. It sounded like her friend she met five years ago. "Lucy?" He called her. She stops yelling at nowhere and turned her head towards him. She was shocked to see Gale. What a coincidence that they met again at the place where Gale discovered to use for problems confession. "You? You're here. I bet you had many problems and mistakes to confessed here!" Lucy told him while her eyes were covered with tears. She quickly dried it with her palm.  Gale took a deep breath and smiled at her. "Maybe. I just got here. It's nice to see you again here. I'm sorry about last time because I didn't have time to meet you before I go back abroad." He explained to her and Lucy finally understand why he just vanished. " Well, it's all in the past. I'm glad I see you again. It's time for me to go. It's your turn now." She said and about to go

10 hours before the partyEloisa POVI set up my alarm on my phone at exactly five in the morning. I slowly drag my lazy body out of our bed when Kent woke up with my sudden movement.He impatiently opens his eyes to see what I was doing."It's too early. Where do you think you're going?", he asked me while I was preparing myself to take a shower. I sat beside him and planted a kiss on his lips. " I'll go jog to stretch my legs, honey. I felt my body seems to get weaker after we get home." I mumbled.Kent was still sleepy so he let me go. "Just come back before Dilan woke up l, okay? You know he's looking for you every time he woke up." He reminded me.I just wear my sweet smile at my husband when he said about our son Dilan but the truth was I hated him so much. When I see his face especially his eyes, it reminded me about Lucy. He's not mine to protect and defend. I

Lucy POVI woke up and found myself laying on my mattress. I felt strange since I didn't go back to my room last night. Did Gale carry me all the way upstairs just to place me inside my room? I feel careless because I didn't remember that I fell asleep on the terrace.I quickly put my toes on the floor and ambled out from my bed going to the bathroom. I made a quick shower and open my dress cabinet to choose what kind of outfit I will be wearing for today. It's my me-time so I have my freedom to go anywhere I want. I decided to wear a plain white t-shirt and baggy pants to go to the supermarket for groceries. An Adidas white sneakers will be more attractive to pair with. I love wearing comfortable dresses especially when I'm not inside the penthouse or office. I sat in front of my make-up area and saw my reflection in the mirror. I saw myself but in an aura of a different person and not the coward Lucy from the past. While thinking about what happe

Eloisa came home with her crumpled face. She roamed her eyes inside the mansion to look for her husband but she found nothing. She quickly grabs her phone from her handbag and called him. "Hon, I thought you're not going to the office today and I will take charge in the meantime? But where are you? I just got home!", she said with a pissed on her face. While talking to her husband, she didn't notice that Greta was inside too playing with Austin. Eloisa heard a noise upstairs so when her house staff passed by holding a tray of snacks for two, she asked her. " Hey, do we have a visitor here?", she said and her staff nodded.She was confused since no one came into her house except the people who were part of their family. She took the tray from her and offer to bring it upstairs. "Let me. Anyway, who came here to visit Austin?", she asked her staff again. She scratches her head trying to remember the name of the guest un
