Betraying the Heiress Chapter 38
Before we went to Gretchen's afterparty, I tried to call Stefan. I wonder what they are doing with the girl he was kissing in the video. Maybe it's not just kissing that's happening between the two of them now. I tried to call him again and again, but he didn't answer, so I just gave up. When we got to the bar, I immediately drank a lot of alcohol there. Allison also found out what happened, and she was very worried about me. I told them that they shouldn't think too much of me because I prefer to be alone. "What are you doing here? Didn't I say I wanted to be alone?" I asked Jackson. He had been following me for a while while I left Clara and Stella with Josiah. "I just can't leave you alone. I know you, Eli. You become a different person when you get drunk," he told me. I laughed, and I rolled my eyes at him."Why don't you just go see Leona? Why isn't she here? Wasn't she invited?" I asked him one after another. He shook his head, then also drank from the beer he was holding

The next day, I woke up with a headache. I almost cursed all the alcohol that I drank last night, but I can't blame it because I wanted to drink it. I don't know what happened last night; I just saw that I fell asleep still wearing the clothes I used last night. Clara is next to me, and she looks the same. She was still fast asleep, and it looked like we were all drunk last night. I went straight to my bathroom and soaked in the bathtub. I almost passed out when I remembered Stefan. My heart suddenly pounded as I remembered what I watched last night. I tried to remember if it was real or just a dream. I didn't enjoy my bath in the bathtub. I took a quick shower there and quickly got dressed, even though I still felt a headache. "What am I doing here?" Clara asked as she stood up from the bed. "You obviously got drunk last night. Take a shower to get rid of your headache," I replied to her.She didn't say anything, and she immediately entered my bathroom. I also prepared some clot

I was so desperate to talk to Stefan. Allison told me that she would help me, so that day I booked my flight right away. I will leave tomorrow morning because I will also try to tell Mommy. I'm sure she will understand me, and even if she doesn't agree, I will continue to go to Singapore. That same day, Jackson posted a message on his social media accounts saying that the accusations against me were false. He also said the reason we were both hugging each other that night was because I was crying. He went into full detail in his post, and he also said that he just showed me the video of Stefan kissing another girl. Some believe his explanation, but others don't. That thing reduced my thinking, because I know that not all people are open-minded in such situations. Only people who know me understand that, and I am very grateful to all of them. "What's the update?" I asked Clara when she called me. "Stefan doesn't want to tell me the address where they are in Singapore. Maybe he know
Betraying the Heiress Chapter 41
It was two o'clock in the afternoon when Jackson and I arrived in Singapore. Stefan was on my mind when the plane we were on landed in Singapore. I was nervous, even though I had prepared how to talk to him. Clara also gave me an update that Stefan is still here, so I'm confident that I can talk to him now. Jackson and I had a late lunch, and we also booked a hotel. We have separate rooms, but they are next to each other, so we can meet quickly. I didn't even bother to rest because I really wanted to talk to Stefan. Jackson also gave me the address where Stefan and his family are staying now. It's close to the Hotel where we are, and it's just walking distance. Stefan is also staying at the Hotel with his siblings. "I'll just walk around here. I'll meet you later at the hotel," Jackson told me as we walked out. I nodded to him and smiled before walking away. As I walk, my heart beats faster. When I saw the Marina Bay Sands Hotel not far from me, I stopped for a moment. I took a d

"W-What do you mean?" I asked, stuttering and shaking my head. I remembered Stefan's story. He said that someone killed his Dad, and he saw how he died. His father was killed, and I'm sure that my Dad can't do the thing they're accusing him of."Tell him, Stefan, to end this conversation. I'm wasting my time!" said his mommy. I looked at Stefan, and I could still see the concern in his eyes, but he tried to cover it with anger. He nodded at me before speaking. "It's true. Your dad killed my dad, and you're the one I chose to charge because you're his favorite son. I just forced myself into your life to hurt you. To get r-revenge," he said, then stammered at the last he said. I shook my head, and my tears fell even more. That's not true. I know, and I felt how much he loved me when we were together. "That's not true," I said while shaking my head. "M-My Dad can't do what you are saying—" he cut me off again. "You say that because you know nothing and—" he couldn't finish what he

I couldn't move from where I was standing until I felt Jackson next to me."Let's go," he told me, then helped me out of there.I felt like I came back to myself when he pulled me out of there. I quickly wiped my tears and ran with Jackson.When we arrived at the Hotel, I could feel my body shaking. Allison is critical, and Brent is dead?! I think about how they got into an accident, and I think about Allison. I can't believe it! We haven't bonded with Brent for a long time, and then he's going to disappear in an instant?Jackson and I hurried home and bought another plane ticket. We missed our flight tonight, and I was so thankful we got an earlier flight. Stella also sent me pictures of Allison's accident, and I couldn't get that out of my mind during the entire flight.When we got home to the Philippines, Jackson immediately took me to the hospital where Allison was. My eyes are still puffy because I didn't stop crying earlier.I caught up with Stella, Clara, Jackson, and Mommy out

Weeks have passed, and Allison still hasn't woken up. Brent was also buried, and we all went that day. We all sympathize with his family, and they wish Allison a fast recovery. I didn't enroll for the first semester because I was the only one with my mother to take care of Allison while she was still comatose. I also lost my desire to go back to school because most of them hated me due to what happened between me and Stefan. I chose to keep an eye on Allison, and there was no problem with my Mother. What I didn't expect was to find out a few weeks later that I was pregnant. At first, my mother got mad at me, and I understood her. Her feelings of being hurt and angry with me are valid because I disappointed her.I haven't received any updates about Stefan either. The only thing I know is that he has continued his studies in Canada. I was going to let him know that I was pregnant because that was the advice of my friends, but when my mother found out, she didn't agree. Mom doesn't wa

"Did she lose her memory forever or will it come back soon?" I asked the doctor. Yes, of course it will come back. We just don't know when. Some patients have their memory back after a few minutes, hours, or weeks. There are also patients who wait months before the memory returns. So, in her case, we'll observe her," the doctor explained to me one after the othertheir I nodded, because the important thing was that Allison was awake. That's what's important to me now—to see her awake and able to speak. The doctor left after checking on Allison again. It told me to try to talk to Allison to help her remember right away. "I'm Eli, your sister. We have another sister, and she's just on her way here now. Mommy is still in the Philippines because she's taking care of our company," I told Allison. She just looked at me as if she remembered who I was. I smiled at her because she didn't have to force herself to remember who I was. I also saw that her gaze fell on my stomach, so I immediat

"Won't your boyfriend be angry? I can explain to Yasmin that you can't join us," Stefan said as we walked to Yasmin's hospital room.I shook my head and smirked a little because he really believed that Lance was my boyfriend."There's nothing to be angry about. Don't mind about it, Stefan. It's okay. I assure you," I told him, and he smiled.He sighed and shook his head at me, as if I couldn't convince him that it was all right for me."I just don't want you to fight because of this," he answered when we finally entered Yasmin's room.I saw Yasmin's frown when she looked at us; that's why I smiled at her, because she seemed to have heard the last thing Stefan said."Get angry? Who gets angry? Is your mommy taking you away from us, Doc?" Yasmin asked one after the other.I quickly shook my head at her and looked at Stefan, who led me to walk. He immediately went straight to the table and put the paper bag he was carrying there."No, it's not her mother, Yasmin. I just said that, becaus

"Come on, Eli. Tell me the truth. I won't be angry if you and Stefan get back together again," Josiah scolded me.I sighed and raised an eyebrow at him. I told him earlier that Stefan and I didn't get back together, but he didn't want to believe that."Stop it, Jos. We just talked. That's it," I answered him.We are now walking to a restaurant near the hospital. As usual, even when I'm outside, I know there are bodyguards following me. It was already dinner time, so we decided to eat outside because we had duty all night."Talked? You said that you already talked. I've seen you two talking so many times that's why you can't use an excuse that word to me," he said one after another as if he didn't really believe what I was saying.I shook my head again because I didn't know how I could convince him that Stefan and I really just talked earlier."If you don't want to believe me, then you better ask him by yourself. We really just talked for our closure, and we also talked about the false

After coming from the precinct, I went straight to the hospital. Josiah immediately approached me to ask what happened."Stella mentioned to me that you are from the precinct. How are you? Have you talked to your dad's twin brother?" Josiah immediately asked me.I nodded and sighed."Yup. I have also introduced them to Tito Adler, and we still get to know him," I answered.Josiah nodded at me before he fixed his laboratory coat. He was about to speak, but he turned his gaze behind me, which made me frown, and looked at it.I saw Stefan approaching us; that's why I held my breath."I'll just check on some of my patients. I'll come to your office later," Josiah said, then immediately left.I panicked for a moment because I didn't expect him to leave right away, but I calmed myself down."Doc Eli," Stefan called me.I kept looking at him, and I could see the doubt in his eyes, as if he wasn't sure if he should approach me now.I cleared my throat and stood properly before I spoke."Mr. E

"How can you not know about that, Mom?" Allison asked."My gosh! If he hadn't introduced himself, I might have believed that it was Dad!" Stella said one after the other."How can I know about that? Your Daddy never mentioned to me that he has a twin!" Mommy answered, then sat down on the sofa.We are at home now because, after Tito Adler's statement appeared on the news, Mommy called us to come home. I thought they wouldn't be able to watch it right away because they were busy with their work, but I was surprised when they watched it right away."He looks like Dad. I suddenly miss Daddy," Allison said with a sad voice.I remembered the night Uncle Adler appeared to me, and I was also very devastated because I thought it was Dad in front, but it wasn't. I understand Allison's feelings because I have felt the same."So what's your plan, Mom? Don't tell me we're not going to help him, huh?" asked Stella.I looked up at Mommy because I was interested in her answer to Stella's question. I

I don't know how many minutes passed until Mommy finally calmed down, but there was still a trace of anger in her eyes. "I-I just want to help the baby, but that doesn't mean I'm going back to Stefan," I explained to them. Even Stella did not want to agree to me adopting Elias because she said it was not my obligation. Another thing is that they really hate Stefan, even though I told them that I forgave him a long time ago. "How can you be so sure about that? I'm sure that man will use you again!" Stella said, annoyed. "It looks like you're planning to fool around for the rest of your life, Eliana. Hey! I don't know if I should be the one to say it. You're at the right age, so it's up to you!" Mommy kept preaching to me. I sighed again because I couldn't understand why they were thinking of me getting back together with Stefan, even though it never crossed my mind. "I just want to help the baby, but I have no intention of getting back together with Stefan. I don't have any feeli

After I got Yasmin back to her room, I let her rest. Stefan was still there, and Elias was asleep in the little crib. "Thank you, Doc. How is she?" Stefan asked me. Yasmin fell asleep immediately because her body gets tired quickly. Stefan, on the other hand, stopped what he was doing to come to me and say thank you. "She was fine, and we have already talked. She just mentioned something to me earlier," I answered, then shrugged my shoulders. I could see the slight surprise in his eyes, as if he already knew what it was about. "A-About what?" he stuttered. I avoided looking at him, and I looked at Yasmin, who was sleeping on her bed, as if she were very tired. "She doesn't want to have the surgery," I answered.I feel so sorry for her, because even if I don't agree with what she wants, I can't do anything else. "Yes, she already told me about that. I don't agree to what she wants even though her funds for her treatment have been used up," Stefan explained, causing me to turn t

I saw that the sun was about to set, and I was glad to witness it now because it was almost night when I left the hospital. It's a good thing that Yasmin asked for this, so I was able to watch the sunset with her. "How's your feeling?" I asked Yasmin. We are now behind the hospital, where there are many trees and a large oval field. This is the place I chose for my hospital so that I could give the patients a big space. The air is fresh there, and I sometimes go here when I want to be alone. There are also other patients there who are being taken around by their nurses. "As of now, I feel fine and feel no pain," Yasmin answered me. I gave her the vegetable salad that Josiah gave me earlier because I couldn't eat it anymore. I only drink iced coffee now. Yasmin was looking at the big oval field while sitting in her wheelchair, so I sat on a bench right next to her. "Your surgery is coming soon. Are you ready?" I asked her. I looked at Yasmin, and I saw a lot of changes in her ph

I didn't last long in the nursery room either, and Stefan and I were able to talk there, so when we finished, I went back to my work. "You see?" Josiah asked me when we met again.I took a deep breath and then nodded in response to him. He smiled slightly at me, then lightly patted my shoulder. "I feel good about the baby, Jos. When I saw and touched him earlier, it was like I was being with Margaret again," I told him, and then I couldn't help but smile. I saw Josiah immediately shake his head while looking at me, so I slightly raised an eyebrow at him. "How many times do I have to tell you, Eli? Separate your personal feelings in situations like this so you don't get hurt in the end," he said to remind me again. I held my breath and tried to smile at him before speaking. "I know, Jos. I just felt something strange about the baby," I answered him. I know that my weakness is children because I lost my own child. I just sometimes think that Yasmin is very lucky because, even tho

I went straight to Lance's room and found him awake. He was talking with Criza, his sister. They looked at me at the same time when I entered, so I smiled. "Doc, Eli." Criza greeted me. I smiled at Criza and couldn't help but remember what I discovered about what happened to her. I turned to Criza to have a kiss with her, then I looked at Lance, who was just looking at me silently. "I'll leave you two here for now. I'm just going to buy something outside," Criza said to say goodbye. I nodded to her, and I watched her until she got out of Lance's hospital room. When Criza finally left, I turned to Lance again. He smirked as if he was going to start teasing me again, so I immediately came to him and lightly slapped his arm. "Ouch! Eliana! Did you really come here to hurt me?" he asked, then laughed slightly. "Yeah, because you're annoying! Why did you catch the bullet meant for me? You don't have nine lives," I complained to him. He laughed, so I glared at him. "Stop laughing. T
