~JIMENA~

“Shit!” I cursed as the call ended, “What am I going to do now?” I asked myself as I started pacing around, “They made it clear, god!” I slapped my cheek but quickly rubbed it as it started to tingle in pain.

They made it clear that if their plan got ruined, I would be the one to pay for it.

“But I... I can’t leave William now.” I said to myself as I stopped pacing, “Mom, she knows what to do.” I said as I got my phone, and with trembling fingers, I dialed Mom's number, and she picked on the third.

“Sweetheart, I’m in the middle of something… can…can you call back la-”

“You can fuck him later; I need you.” I cut her as I could hear moans; yes, that was my mom. Since Dad died, all she did was sleep around with young men.

“Okay, that’s rude,” she said, but I could hear movements, which meant she was now seated. “What happened?”

“It’s William.”

    ~ANASTASIA~ I woke up about thirty minutes ago; I had already taken a shower and prepared myself for the day. I had to see Harriot today for my first appointment. Sadly, it wasn’t weird that William was not going with me. I mean, even with Ivy, he never attended any of the appointments; he was only present at her birth, which he made sure to trend on the news as that was his main goal. I was standing in front of the mirror combing my rich chocolate brown hair. I haven’t looked at myself in a mirror in such a long time. Marrying William somehow made me question myself if I was just that ugly, whenever I looked in the mirror, I saw that ugly woman who destroyed William's life, so I refrained from looking, but now that I wanted to rebuild my confidence, it was going to be difficult, but I had to try. I noticed I had bags under my eyes, so I quickly picked the foundation and hid them. I was pregnant, so I was so emotional that even a little thing made me cry. Last night, after t

    ~ANASTASIA~ I couldn't believe it was happening again—Dad choosing Carmen and this time Carol's side too. I could feel my tears threatening to fall, but I bit my inner cheeks, keeping them in; this was not the time nor the place to cry. “Really?” I tried to sound confident, “I should publicly embarrass myself?” “Honey-” “Don't you dare!” I yelled as Carmen almost came to me; she really knew how to play nice; I mean, she just agreed to me publicly humiliating myself. “You need to calm down.” Dad said, and I shook my head, “I might not agree with Carol now, but what she's saying is making sense.” “Why should I go and embarrass myself?” “For peace...” Carmen answered, “We, your family know the truth, so it won't matter what the public will say, right, love?” She turned to Dad, who nodded. “If what the public says is not important, then why bother holdin

    ~ANASTASIA~ I was back in my room packing the things I left out while Trey was outside preparing the car. I just prayed that Carol kept her word; she said if I was leaving, there was no need for me to call for a press conference as she would make sure her son married Jimena as soon as possible. Well, it hurt me, but there was nothing I could do. William loved her, and it was for the best. I wanted to leave Seattle as soon as possible; I just wanted to be with my daughter now. “Of course, honey, but please don’t tell Daddy, and I have a surprise for you,” I said as I looked at the phone. I was on a video call with Ivy. “Surprise?” She still couldn’t believe I was going to tell her, “Tell me? Is it a new bag? A brand I haven’t seen?” Yes, Ivy liked expensive things; at her age, she was already aware of brands, and she’s not to blame but William; to make up for his absence in her life, he spoils her with expensive things.

    ~ANASTASIA~ My eyes were on the clock. I didn't understand what was taking him so long. “Calm down; everything is going to be okay,” Carmen said, but I ignored her as my eyes darted to the door. “Good, the next flight leaves in an hour; let’s hope this fool is back by then,” Trey said, Yes, Trey hated Harriot as well; his crime was being friends with William, but I didn’t hate Harriot; I mean, he was not the reason William was who he is. Dad asked him to show some respect, but he just rolled his eyes and turned to me, “You’ll be fine, sis; I won’t let anything happen to you.” He said, and I nodded my head, and that’s when the door opened, and I quickly sat up. “What’s wrong with my baby?” I asked as soon as Harriot walked in. “Speak.” Trey, who was trying so hard to hold in his temper said. “Calm down everyone,” Harriot said before he looked into his notepad. “I thought it was a big issue, but it’s just stress, th

    ~WILLIAM~ Leaving Anastasia’s house, I went straight to a bar. I was in pain as that Trey guy had the guts to hit me even knowing his family company was at stake. I didn’t care about the pain though, and I don’t know why I was feeling weird that Anastasia asked guards to throw me out. I thought she would be asking for forgiveness; I expected her to be on her knees, but instead, she did that. I honestly didn’t understand her. I mean, if she was playing hard to get me, was she not afraid of losing me? Because as far as I remember, Anastasia was in love with me; even when she found out I was cheating on her with Jimena, she still stayed, so this... this wasn’t making any sense. I was already parked outside the bar; I don’t know what I was waiting for, but I couldn’t bring myself to go in. “I need to be sober,” I said to myself, and with that, I started the car and drove away. Drinking now would not help. I needed solutions because there

    ~WILLIAM~ I mean, it must be the only reason, and the way Harriot was silent proved it: “Shit, I can't believe she would hide this from me!” “Hide what?” Vivi, who I didn't notice, had returned asked. “She knew about it, didn't she?” I turned to Harriot, but my hand pointed at her. “Know about what?” she asked, but I still ignored her as I now stood up and started searching for my phone but realized I left it in the car. “William, are you sure you're okay?” Harriot asked, and I turned to him, confused at what he meant. “How can Anastasia be pregnant when you rarely touch her?” he questioned. “I mean, it's not like I don't touch her at all,” I muttered under my breath as I tried to recall the last time Anastasia and I had sex, and I remembered it was when Jimena and I argued—Anastasia was the cause of it. Anastasia was also pretty; even though her body was not shaped like a model, I was still attracted to her as sh

    ARIZONA, SEDONA 2022~ANASTASIA~“Shit!” I cursed but quickly slapped my cheek as I had forgotten I was with Ivy now; I couldn't curse or use improper words.I picked the candle that fell from its place and placed it back; after that, I unwrapped the towel from my head. I was sure my hair was dry now.After hanging the towel, I walked to the bedroom, attempting to get my hair straightener. When I heard a soft knock on the door, I knew it must be my daughter, so I asked the person to come in.“Mommy, are you done?” She quickly rushed in.“Sweetheart, yes, I'm almost done; I just want to strengthen my hair, then I'll be done.”“Okay, Mommy, I will wait for you,” she said and sat on the bed. I knew how stubborn she was, and so I knew nothing I would say would change her mind, so I nodded and walked to the cupboard and pulled out the strengthener.I had arrived in Sedona an hour ago; Santiago picked me up and brought me to his home. He went to finish sorting papers since they were prepari

    ARIZONA, SEDONA 2022~ANASTASIA~I grabbed the phone from Gia’s hands to see for myself and was shocked to find that she was telling the truth. What made it worse was that the photoshopped picture they used was of me on my knees crying and, in a sense, begging William not to divorce me while he was holding Jimena's hands, who had her heel on top of my head.“Don't mind them; the media are just a bunch of liars,” Gia said, and she was right: this is how they made their living, by tarnishing people's reputations. I mean, the image didn't exactly hurt me, but the fact that this could happen—I mean, Jimena could literally step on me, and William would do nothing.“I don't blame them,” I said as I walked to the bed and sat down. “I blame myself.”“Ana—”“No, it is me who had a crush on a man who was clearly out of my league.”“Are you kidding me? You're an heiress, for God's sake, so how is William out of your league?”“I know William is your friend, but he has really crossed the line,” I

    I wish I could say Carmen had an explanation for this, but she didn't. Instead, she looked down, avoiding me, and that was enough to give me an answer… I really couldn't deal with this right now, and just as I was about to say my goodbye because with how this turned out, she didn't deserve to be here, she had to leave even if I had to kick her out myself, well, that's when someone knocked, and I asked them to come in.“It’s your phone, Mrs. Frost.” It was the servant who took my handbag earlier; I had forgotten that my phone was in the bag, so looking at Carmen one last time, I walked out, taking my phone from the servant.“Santiago?”“Hi, Ana. Are you with Hudson? Is… it true?”“W-what's true? Can you calm down?”“He… Susanna…”“Yes, what about her?”“Her death… it wasn't natural; someone caused it.”“What?!” Okay, what was this?“Hudson just called.”“Hudson? But how…?” I stopped myself as I thought for a second, how did Hudson know about Susanna? “How does Hudson know about Susanna

    I couldn't even imagine what she was feeling; it was painful, and the thought made me wish I could erase her memory so she could start afresh like she said because I will not be able to count the times I wanted to start over.When Mom passed…I even traveled, but of course, I never succeeded, and don't get me started on when I was married to William; if it weren't that I loved him, I could have started over long back.I wouldn't be here now.I would be in Africa; it's the most affordable and quiet continent, or… England, for a good education for my daughter.Yes, I booked tickets for both continents. I even spoke to apartment owners. Well, like I said, if I didn't blindly love William because I would make up my mind, Vivi would be there waiting, but as soon as William walks in and I see his thin lips and muscles, everything would go hazy, and I would forget to go to the airport.Well, I was stupidly in love back then, and no, I wasn't blaming myself or William; everything happens for

    The maid looked confused like I had just said something that was not making sense.“She’s only been gone for a few hours; the police would advise us to wait.”“It doesn’t matter; this family has been in danger lately; we can’t risk another life now; call 911.”“Alright, Mrs.” She finally walked to the telephone while I stood still for a second as I wondered why she didn’t look worried. I mean, didn’t Gianna know, Carmen? Because Margot was the head, she was like family, and despite the betrayal, she still did a lot for this family. Sure, she was paid to do it, but nobody paid her to love us like her children, so she was still very important to the family.After calming down, I finally looked up. Well, my hate for stairs came with the pregnancy. I sighed and was going to give it a try when one of the servants came from the stairs, struggling with a big suitcase.“Wait, whose bag is that?” I asked as looking at it, I could tell someone packed to leave, not for vacation.“Mrs. Lancaster.

    Wow, this was something I never expected. I mean, it was Jimena; she always wanted William, so of course she would do anything to be with him, including faking a pregnancy, which is truly hard to believe. As I was a mother, I would never fake a pregnancy.After calming myself down, I asked my assistant to get the job done, getting the cleaner to clean the place. I asked her to supervise as I needed the desk scrubbed or, if possible, changed.“Send me the documents to my email; I will have a look at home,” I said before finally leaving.I could tell the employees were giving me eyes; I knew they knew, but I didn't have the time; I needed to get to the house so I could speak to Carmen about her daughter; something really needed to be done.“Hudson can take down any news reports, right?” I asked Matt as I got in, and he nodded his head, “If I ask him, he might not believe me, or better yet, he will just think I'm hallucinating.”“I can do it, Mrs. Frost; you don't have to ask him.”“News

    She sounded confident, making me gasp in shock; her confidence shocked me. I mean, this was absurd; this company was mine. It didn't matter if she managed it for a month or so; I was the rightful owner, and no board member would choose who to manage as this was Adira, very different from all other companies.Hearing the knock on the door, I walked and got it.“Mrs. Frost.” It was the Director, also a board member. “I was in—”“Get security; we have a trespasser.”“I—”“Now and let others know that they won't be voting; I am back.”“Yes, Mrs. Frost, guard!” He called for a guard who I assume was patrolling.“Wait, you're not serious, are you?”“If I were you, I would use the few minutes I have to button up my shirt and leave as soon as possible because I am very sure reporters are on their way. See, we have spies here, and they probably heard of this.”“Oh, I don't care. Like you said, I'm not a Lancaster; I have no reputation to uphold.”“Even better, the media will destroy you as an

    I mean, she is a cheater since she slept with Harriot too, but Daniella was new and a woman, so how did they already hit it off?I silently watched as she asked Jimena to excuse us—she even called her babe?…Well, Jimena, who looked ashamed as she couldn't even meet my eyes, rushed out, leaving Daniella and me alone.“Why are you here?” was the question she thought was important, “an hour ago you were enjoying your series looking all miserable, and now you're here all… dressed? What's this? A comedy? Are there hidden cameras I don't know about?” She started looking around, making me shake my head. “Ana, you—”“Do you know she's married?” I cut her off with a question, sure, after what William made me go through, Jimena cheating on him shouldn't be my concern; in fact, it should make me happy, but I wasn't a fan of cheaters, so this disturbed me.“Excuse me?”“Jimena and I didn't know you liked women, but to do it in my office? Now that's unacceptable.”“Wait, wait, wait, did…” She lau

    I was waiting for Hudson to explain why I couldn't go, but he just swallowed his saliva, insisting that I couldn't just go. Well, I really wanted to see my company, so not listening, I told him I would be back before dinner.“Actually… I'm thinking the restaurant. Feels like I've been locked up here for years.” I added it before finally leaving.Outside I was glad to find Matt already waiting by the car.“Mrs. Frost.” He said as he held the door open for me, at least he was the only one who wasn't looking at me like I was a ghost or something.“Thank you, Matt,” I said as I got in, and after closing the door, he got in the driver's seat, and without saying a word, started the car.The ride to the company was quiet.I was wondering what was happening with Hudson, why he didn't want me to come to my company. Well, I was suspecting the part about Dad because he also asked that I not see him, but I didn't want to overthink it; it would just give me unnecessary stress.I was lost in my tho

    ~ANASTASIA~After the shower, I asked Juliette to leave as she was making me uncomfortable. I then realized the house decor, tulips on the coffee desk instead of the window stand, and coffee mugs on the coffee table, which made it look untidy. I quickly pulled my hair into a ponytail and started cleaning and organizing the place.It took me thirty minutes, and once that was done, I went to wash my face again and apply makeup because, with the way my face was feeling, it was like I hadn't worn makeup in weeks.After that I got in the kitchen and started preparing lunch; it was really confusing as I didn't remember when I got here or when Ivy and Hudson left for work, although Juliette insisted they left in the morning. All I remember was Dad losing consciousness and Trey asking me to get help. Speaking of Dad, I made a mental note to visit him after lunch; I was not sure if he was taken to the hospital or back home.I baked potatoes for Hudson and Ivy while I made salad; there was no s

    She was my mother, the woman who gave me life. Megan asked that I hear her out, so maybe… Nah, she didn’t deserve a chance. Ending the call, I got in the car and drove back to the abandoned apartment.I found that William and Dahlia were both treated. William wanted to leave; now I didn't need him. If anything, I wanted him to be with Ivy, so I let him go while I set up my computer and tried to figure out Margot, why she would be interested in the Lancsters' downfall. Was she perhaps in love with Martinez? I mean, this can be the only explanation for this.“Put a tracker in the socket; she can't be fully trusted,” I told Dr. Luke, who nodded before doing as I asked.It was already the early hours of the next day, so I knew Daniella and Rowan were driving to D.C, and with the secret code, the president would surely let them in. Matt was still waiting for a perfect chance to get into Lancaster's mansion so he could get Margot.Well, Dr. Luke had left; it was just me and Dahlia. I could
