”What was that all about?" Reign asked Cora the moment Lucas ended his call.

She sighed, "Forget about that. For now, let me clean up here so we can quickly go to Lisa. She might really need your help."

Cora walked into the kitchen afterward to clean it up and Reign went inside to help her. Once they were done from the kitchen, and both changed their clothes, Reign led the way out.

However, Cora asked him to wait and went back into the room. She took out the divorce document Olsen had prepared for her and signed it before putting it into her bag.

Before they left, Reign called Lisa's number again to confirm where she was but her phone was answered by someone else who informed him that Lisa was at a bar.

Reign and Cora arrived at the bar and found Lisa sitting with her head lying on the table. Reign looked at the empty bottles of beer on the table and asked, "Lisa, did you drink all of these?"

She lifted her head and smiled at him, "Reign, you're here?"

When she spotted Cora, she pout

She walked closer to him, sat down, and said, "Thank you very much for telling the truth in court and adding more to what happened so no one would point fingers at my character anymore."He smiled, sat down too, and crossed his legs, "You know I've always been this cool. You've just misunderstood me a lot, that's all."She stared at him and smiled, "Thank you."She thought about asking him if he had known that Avery was the real killer of Greg or if he knew about her whereabouts at that moment, however, she thought better of it and decided to focus on why she was there.Just as she opened her bag and took out the divorce document,

He asked, relief evident on his face.He got up, ready to leave but Lisa sat up and said, "I'm sorry for troubling you, Reign.

I went to a cheap bar for reasons I don't even know and someone spiked my drink and stole my purse. While I still had some of my wits about me, your number was the only one I could remember. Thank you for coming."Reign nodded and sat down again, "I know some unpleasant things have

    Cora kept staring at the man in front of her in surprise. It was difficult to believe that Avery wasn't her father's daughter but now she understood why the man seemed familiar to her.He had a striking resemblance to Avery and at first, she could not figure it out because she didn't think they were connected in such a way.Avery's mom had gotten pregnant shortly after marrying her father years back, which meant that she had cheated on him. All these years, her father loved Avery so much and doted on her. He spent most of what he had on her but she was someone else's daughter?Thinking about her father who was now at the mercy of Avery's real parents, Cora felt sorry for him. They had all thought Avery took after her father because she was tall like him but it was merely coincidence.She wondered if Reign was going to save her.

    REIGNFOURTEEN YEARS AGOI picked up my bag after the bell rang and began making my way out of my class along with my friends. I bid them farewell when we got to the parking lot and I spotted a black Corolla; the car that was used to pick me up from school every day.As I always did, I opened the door, got inside, and sat on the passenger seat. I was surprised to see that the driver was a different person. I had never seen him before and my parents never told me that my driver was going to be changed."Who are you?" I asked just as he turned on the ignition."I am your new driver," he replied.I looked behind me but there was no one in the back seat. It was strange because my two bodyguards always came along with my driver to drop me off and pick me up every day.I felt uneasy and quickly reached for the door to open it and run out. However, the door had been locked.Even though the glass was tinted, I screamed for help in hopes that someone would hear my voice and alert the school aut

    Avery was shocked by Reign's actions. As she got up from where she had been made to sit for a while, she began to think about why Reign was being kind to her and letting her go.She realized his attitude toward her had changed the moment he saw the pendant on her neck and she told him it broke when she saved a boy from a fire. "Could he be the boy that Cora saved all those years?" Her eyes widened as she thought of the possibility. Cora had stopped wearing the band since the pendant broke so Reign had no way of knowing who really saved him."This must be it," she told herself. "Why else would he let me go? I just need to play along and see how much I can benefit from this."Once Reign led Avery out of the interrogation room, she asked him, "Can I see my mom? I heard she has been arrested.""Let her see her mom," Reign said to one of the officers. "I'll be waiting outside, Avery," he told her before walking away.The officer stared at Reign in shock as he could not understand what was

    Reign recalled how netizens called Cora all sorts of names when her innocence had not yet been proven in the crown court. He remembered how he had picked her up after she fainted inside his panic room. He recalled how rotten tomatoes were thrown at her, how Avery's mother had attacked her at the hospital, accusing her of being a murderer, how Avery's father had injured her on the head, and all the tears Cora had cried.He shook his head, "Never. Avery, your dad committed a crime and your mum worked with him. You are only free because you saved my life but I can't save them.Yes, Cora's innocence was proven in court but that happened because she was truly innocent. I will never defend a murderer."Avery sighed, "I thought you wanted to pay me back for saving you but now I realize it was all a lie. Forget about everything, there's no need to pay me back."She turned and began walking back into the station but Reign said, "Hold on, Avery. I want to pay you back but not this way. There sh

From the way he was dressed and the way all the employees at the counter greeted him respectfully, I could tell he was a prominent figure.One of the employees picked up a card from a bunch on the counter and handed it to the man, saying, "Here's an invitation to the boss' launch party tonight. It's mandatory to show up with the invitation, sir."The man smiled and accepted the invitation card, saying, "Thank you, I will surely be at the party."As the man turned and began to walk away, I stared at the heap of cards and thought, "So that arrogant man is throwing a party, huh? I wonder how he would react if I gate crashed it. Would he send me back home just as I want?"I suddenly became excited as I thought about what I could do at the party."I'm

Throw this piece of trash out of my house before I lose it."I rolled my eyes, "As if I want to be here! You must be crazy upstairs, which explains why you can't speak without raising your voice, old man. Pick on someone your own size and news flash, I would be more than happy to leave this place."A few other domestic staff had arrived at this point and they were all staring in surprise.

    MIRANDA I had no idea what was going on there but seeing the look on the faces of my family members, I got an uncomfortable feeling. The woman was about to speak, possibly to explain whatever the hell was going on, however, I did not give her the time to do so.I couldn't go through the back because my mum was right behind me, so, I passed the woman and bolted out the door. I stood outside briefly, and came up with an idea; rather than to Collins, I would run to my cousin's for the time being, until I understood what was going on. I heard footsteps behind me and began to run without looking back."Please, don't abandon us when we need you the most," I heard a familiar voice and stopped.My mom walked up to me and turned me so I could face her. Tears kept falling from her eyes as she cried, "Please, Mira. Go with the woman and do whatever she says. This is the only thing I have ever asked of you.""That's a lie, mom," I replied. "You've asked me to do a lot of things over the years. T

    MIRANDA I stared at Collins' departing figure and thought, "You'll change your mind once I get back, Collins."I continued running to the road to get a cab. I could not stop worrying that something had happened to my dad. My mom didn't seem like the patient when I heard her voice earlier. My elder brother, Sean, was strong and athletic so it could not be him also. This left me with my dad who had poor health from smoking when he was young and becoming hypertensive after we lost my sister. Once I got to the front of my house, I saw my mum pacing up and down. She stared at me in shock when she saw the way I was dressed. I had initially left through the back and planned to return through it because I wasn't allowed to wear such skimpy clothes and with good reason."Why are you dressed like a prostitute?" She asked angrily as she grabbed my arm and tried to wipe off the makeup on my face. She completely ruined it but that was the least of my problems."Mom, what happened?" I asked anxiou

    MIRANDAI stared at my reflection in the mirror and nodded in approval. I looked really sexy in the short, black dress I had on. There was no way Collins would not go crazy if he saw me looking so hot.He had been my boyfriend for three years in high school and now we were both in our first year in the same college. However, he sent a breakup text to me last night.I couldn't find him all day in school but I learned about the party that would take place in his house. Even though I wasn't invited, I intended to gatecrash the party and give him the one thing he had been asking for.My constant refusal over the years was the same reason why he broke up with me but I loved him too much to let him go. If having sex with him was what I had to do to keep him, then I was getting laid tonight. I arrived at Collins' house a few minutes past six and saw that the party was in full swing. His family was well-to-do, so hosting a party such as that was a piece of cake for him, especially when his pa
