~ANASTASIA~

Warm tears rolled down my cheek as the pain in my chest got unbearable; I could hear pitiful sounds from Gia and Carmen while Dad seemed to have left.

“Honey, you were a little harsh on her.” I heard Gia say.

“It’s not about being harsh; she left this family years back with humiliation. I had to walk the extra mile to restore its glory, and now she thinks she can just come back and humiliate us once again. If she’s getting a divorce from William, then she must marry Hudson; otherwise, she must beg William to take her back.” I heard every word that Santiago said.

“She never made a dollar for this family, and since I’m the head, I will make sure both Trey and she become something more than just heirs of the Lancaster.” He added, before I felt his footsteps, I felt Gia's hand on mine before she followed him.

I still couldn’t believe Santiago and Dad just walked away without saying anything. It was clear they had planned it, but an abortion? I thought they said they were behin

I wish Anastasia was more of a stronger woman and fight back more. She’s letting everyone walk all over her and ignoring her feelings especially her older brother.

    ~ANASTASIA~I was lost in my thoughts when my daughter started shaking my arm.“Mommy! Mommy, please.”“Honey?”“Daddy is outside, Mommy, and he said the guards don't want to let him in; only you can do it, Mom; you gave the order.”“Yes.” That was all I could say.“Are you going to open for Daddy?” She looked hopeful.“Okay, I want you to do something for me.” I said and sat up, “I want you to stay here until I come back, okay?”“Mommy?—”“Thank you.” I said, then kissed her forehead before I walked toward the door, ignoring her as she called me and asked if I was going to open for her daddy, “Don’t move from there.” I said before I opened the door and headed out, good thing my daughter obeyed orders.When I reached down, I found Margot in the living room; she quickly stood up as soon as she saw me.“Ms. Anastasia, do… Do you need anything?” She asked, and I had no choice but to talk to her.“Make sure Ivy doesn't come out of this house,” I said, and without waiting for her response,

    ~ANASTASIA~I couldn’t believe what my eyes were witnessing; Ivy was on her knees, her hands clasped together, practically begging me to open the gate. William seemed to have heard Ivy was here, as his knocking stopped.“Please, I just want to see my daughter; I haven’t seen her in years.” I heard William say. Great, now I will be seen as the monster.“Sweetheart, get up.” My heart was broken seeing Ivy on her knees. It was all William's fault; if he hadn’t done what he did, I wouldn't have a problem with him being around Ivy.“Mommy, please.” Ivy continued; she refused to get up. “I really miss Daddy. Charlie has a daddy; I also want my daddy.” She said, and I couldn't help as I walked to her and helped her up.“Please open the gate,” I said to the gatekeeper, who nodded and opened the gate while I tried to clean her knees. I say tried because as soon as the door opened and William came into sight, Ivy left my side and went to him.“My smart girl,” William said as he picked her up an

    ~ANASTASIA~I stood by Trey's door until I was sure he was done with the phone call, and then I knocked, when he asked me to go in, I went in pretending to have just gotten there.“Did you purposely allow Ivy to call William?” I asked and sat beside him on the bed.“What? Sis, you know how much I dislike that bastard; I swear I didn't know.”“I trust you; well, he's here.”“Sis?”“It's okay; Ivy seems... happy.” It was hard to say, “I just hope he doesn't break her heart this time.” I tried to sound strong as I didn't want to worry him when he clearly had a lot to deal with.“He's the father; you know it's difficult to say no to that little girl. I had to send her to you.” He admitted, and we both laughed, not loud, just softly, as clearly we were both not at peace.“Who are you ignoring?” I asked, as his phone rang twice already.“It's no one, so tell me, how's business? Why did Dad urgently want you to have breakfast with them? What did Santiago say?” He asked, and I realized Margot

    ~ANASTASIA~Have you ever had a heart attack? The one that feels like your heart is on fire? The burning starts small, like a spark, but then it spreads fast; it doesn't stop. No matter how deep you breathe, it's still there—hot, forceful, and unshakeable. If you had it, then you know how I was feeling right now.I opened my mouth and gasped for air, but nothing helped; it was as if a fire was lit in my chest, and it refused to let go.I placed one hand on my chest and another on my stomach; as a fresh tear rolled down my cheek, I was on the verge of losing control when my stomach growled. Yes, I was hungry, but that’s what made me pull myself together—for my baby.I tell you when the heart remembers its ‘why,’ the mind finds a way because I suddenly felt better, the burning sensation in my chest disappeared, and I could breathe without needing to gasp for air.After a moment to myself, I turned the doorknob and entered. It’s like they knew I was by the door as they all turned to me.

    ~ANASTASIA~“We will try to talk to him, right, honey?” Carmen turned to Dad, who nodded.“Yes, we will. I promise I will.” Dad agreed, but I knew Santiago's mind was made up; he was the head of the family, so our lives depended on it if I wanted to continue being a part of it. Okay, on my own I would have just taken my daughter and run away, but now Trey was here; he was in debt, and until he was clean, I couldn't risk it.So pushing the plate of food from my sight, I got up and headed straight to Santiago's room; I knew just what to do.When I reached their door, I stopped and listened as it seemed they were arguing. I swear I don't like eavesdropping, but this involved me; my name was mentioned.“You're not understanding me, love; you of all people know that this is the right thing for her,” Santiago said.“I know, but I think we should give her time; she's pregnant.”“Trust me, that's not an issue at all.”“It is for her, listen love—”“No… at this point. I'm not even listening to

    ~ANASTASIA~I cleared my voice before I asked, “What do you want, Jimena?”“Oh, nothing, I just wanted to check on you.”“Why? I mean, it's not like we are friends.”“I know. You almost killed my baby; I almost had a miscarriage because of you.”“What? Ahh, you're insane.”“No, I'm not. You're the insane one, or you thought what, the video would make William come back to you? Well, news flash, Ana, William proposed to me.”“W-what?” I was shocked.“Yeah, I might be in the hospital, but in a few weeks I will be Mrs. Rogers,” she sounded excited, I mean she always wanted my place so it made sense.“Yes… as it should be.” I didn't know what to say; I mean, my marriage with William was long broken, but hearing that he had proposed to her, even when I expected it, just made it feel so real: “He's marrying you.” I unconsciously said.“Yes, he is, and trust me, this baby will be born healthy no matter the stunts you pull. Do you know why? It's because William loves me.”“I don't know why you

    ~ANASTASIA~It was early morning. I woke up feeling better. Margot came and informed me I was needed in the dining room, but I refused. I told her to tell my father I was not hungry, and when she insisted, I threw pillows at her, and it worked, just like it had always worked years back when I was just a spoiled heiress.I was now getting ready to visit my mom’s grave. I had already asked one of the servants to help Ivy get ready since Charlie had gone with Gianna to see Jimena. She told me, and although it hurt me that my friend was helping the woman who broke my marriage, I still understood because Jimena was her cousin too.“Mommy, are you ready?” Ivy asked while knocking.“Yes, honey, just a second,” I said as I zipped the back of my skirt and then walked to the bed and took the black glasses. I had spots under my eyes, and I didn't want to worry Ivy since she was very smart.After I was done, I picked up my handbag, and then taking my phone, I headed out.“Ow, you look so pretty,

    ~ANASTASIA~I was scared too; I feared for my father’s life, but being a mother, I had to pretend to be okay, to pretend nothing was wrong.“It’s nothing, baby; Grandpa is fine,” I said, stroking her hair as she was now in my arms hugging me tightly. Ivy was strong, but she had a soft spot for the ones she cared for, just like me, so I understood why she was shaken.My eyes were now on Margot, watching her closely as she spoke in a low tone. They spoke for like five minutes, if I'm not mistaken, before the call ended, and she handed me my phone, but I asked with my eyes for an explanation. I was still upset with Margot, but still, I knew she was the only one to tell me what was happening.“It's a document. I misplaced it, and your father couldn't find it.”“A document?”“Yes, Ms.”“Then why was Carmen sounding like Dad was in a critical condition or something?”“Oh yes, your father… He has become grumpy; I mean, it comes with age…” She nervously chuckled before she continued, “He was

    ~ANASTASIA~Last time I saw William was two years ago, yes, two years at a family dinner when Trey proposed to Nicole. From there we've only spoken through phone calls.Life has been chill and peaceful for a while now, and there has been no single drama; it almost felt like a dream — like I was dead and had gone to heaven.Okay, who do I start with, Vivi? Yes, Vivi and Harriot worked it out, and as we speak they are in Africa on a tour. Hudson and I were there last year after the tragedy, and let's just say it filled my cup as I managed to forget and found myself again.Carmen was back in Seattle, doing just fine; we speak at least once a day. Santiago, well, I don't know how it happened, but he was now with Julliete, yes, Julliete. I didn't know he had a thing for her, but well, they were together, and I must be honest, she was much better than Gianna.The day I was in the hospital, I told him about Alexander being his father. I mean, Gianna mentioned he chose me over her, so I felt

    …It's been a few months since the whole drama; Hudson was the hero; he saved my babies, and I was grateful but not happy if I'm being truthful.Everything fell back into place, well for everyone, as they were all trying to move on; Mom and the priest got together.It turned out he never wanted to be a priest in the first place, that he was forced.Well, Nicole was with Trey, he still hasn't forgiven me. He always said that, and I didn't honestly want his forgiveness; I was just happy he was making my sister happy, even when I failed his sister.Life was – well, I had air in my lungs; that's all I can say now.I focused on my company and my children, of course.I got up very early and got to work. I didn't even have breaks; I always returned home late, sometimes even slept there. I would just take an hour to go and spend time with my children before heading back to either my lonely home or to the company – I've been resting in my penthouse lately.I was driving from Ana's home; it was

    The beeping sound of machines forced me out of unconsciousness. Now the pain wasn't much, and I knew I was treated.I didn't really lose consciousness earlier; I was still very much aware of everything. I just didn't have the energy to respond, but after what I've heard, I was in a good mood. Ana was worried for me; she even almost went into the operating room with me. She still cared about me. She still loved me. I knew it!I don't even know why I doubted myself for a second. Man, she loved me; she can't just wake up and unlove me after all the sacrifices. I didn't even want to talk about Jimena at this point; even hearing her name irritated me. She broke my marriage. She broke my family.I felt someone caress my hand, and I knew those soft hands well. It was Ana. I will never forget how soft her hands felt. Yes, years back I pretended like I didn't care, but deep down I loved it.I felt my lips stretch into a smile as I opened my eyes. Of course, I was going to pretend to be in pain

    ~WILLIAM~Hudson had succeeded in keeping Ana from me, but I didn't give up. While I was searching for our babies, I also took lessons. I had to be better for her.If I wanted her back, then I had to make sure I was worthy of her. The past months have been a regret — I realized my mistakes.She was an amazing woman, the mother of my children; she deserved the world. I was a fool for chasing Jimena while she was giving me her whole. Fuck! The mistakes we make.It pained my heart to see that I was losing her. The way Hudson treated her – god, I was tired, slowly dying inside.Today was the Opulence, and I came here to support her.I was sitting in the crowd, next to celebrities, she tried to make conversation but my mind was on Ana.I was not sure if this was her revenge, but I was done. I couldn't do it anymore. She won; she won. I… fell for her.I told her I would never love her, but I was wrong because right now she was all I could think of, and they say love is like a drug, and I c

    “I'm going to end this once and for all; you'll die, we’ll cry about you, and I'll replace you,” she said before forcefully dragging the woman who was earlier lying on the couch, whom I've now learned was Karen.She then forcefully removed the sack from her head and then sat her up. I saw she also had tape on her mouth but was conscious as she was shaking her head, eyes full of tears.Gianna, just like her anger, was aroused by looking at her, started slapping her, so hard, and the ‘twark’ slap sounds echoed in the room. I think she gave her like twenty slaps before she landed about two kicks and then massaged her hand.“You said I would not achieve anything; look at you now, bitch, at my mercy!” She snarled, now making me scared, as the Gia I knew wasn't like this.No wonder Vivi never liked her; it's like she knew she was this evil. Well, Vivi always asked me to stay away from her, but I never listened.“You know I was going to kill the both of you with my bare hands, but time…” She

    I silently listened as Gianna narrated everything, from how she killed Susanna to seducing my brother and then drugging me and William. Yep, that was my weakness: hot men. I was young back then; I was an heiress with zero problems, so I thought I could be with only the hottest. Well, she took that as my weakness, and you know the result.“You were my ticket to wealth, and the fact that you are that woman's daughter made me want you to suffer even more. Oh, I almost forgot, Trey.” She outlined her chin and smirked before she told me Trey was like that because of her.“I'm the one who made him addicted to drugs and gambling. I started small, offering him comfort. Of course, I had to use your situation. Each time William made you look like a fool, he would beat himself about it, saying he was failing his mother…” She laughed before she told me how she first gave it to him in his coffee and then later took him to a casino in pretense to relieve stress.Now I don't remember clearly, but th

    I've been asking Gianna what her motive was, but she didn't respond; she asked me to shut up, so I did as she threatened to give me more slaps.I silently watched, still not able to feel my heart; I don't know how I was alive at this point.Then after a moment, the man came back with a tray and two glasses, one of juice and another of water.“Give it to her!” Okay, I don't know why she had to scream everything; the Gianna I knew was soft. Was this perhaps her clone?The man forced the glass into my mouth, but I refused to take it. What if it was poisoned?“Take it, Ana, or I'll ask my partner to kill one of your babies; we only need one anyway.” I quickly opened my mouth and took the water. “You should have juice; we are celebrating your funeral. I'll have alcohol, of course.” She walked to the dresser, and I watched as she poured herself a drink.After pouring it into a short glass, she took it and then let out a moan before describing the taste and then saying the brand's name and a

    Just like Gianna had ordered, they started kicking me in my stomach so hard that I now fell on the floor with the chair since they used a rope to trap me on it.I couldn't take the pain anymore and I started whimpering.“Good, now give her the scar.” I heard her say, and I don't know what scar she was talking about, but when I felt them push the rope on my stomach, I realized what they were trying to do.“N-no, please, no.” I hated scars!“Yes, yes, please.” Gianna mocked, “You thought you could just leave a scar on me and go free? No, bitch, you messed with the wrong girl.”I felt someone tear the dress using the knife, and I felt the blade on my skin. Okay, the way they hesitated showed me they really didn't want to do it, so I started pleading with them, but they were not listening. The blade went into my flesh with every move sending electricity through my veins, and just as I thought it was going into my stomach, Gianna raised her voice, stopping them.“Sit her up; I think she's

    I would lie if I said my heart was beating faster than normal because I wasn't feeling it. It's like it had just stopped. The fact that I was still breathing and standing alive was what made me know it was still there.I could hear Gianna's voice from a distance. I didn't realize my assistant was now holding the phone for me. Of course, she asked others to give us the room.“You have three seconds to respond, or I'm dumping them in the sea. Do you know they are still alive? The doctor even said they are very healthy and that they have strong genes. I guess a Roger does that, right?” She chuckled, sounding so evil that if I didn't know her voice well, I would believe she wasn't Gianna.“Please don't… Don't hurt my babies.”“I won't if you bring yourself here. I know you know how this works. I will send you the address. No police, guards, or those maniac demons fighting for you, deal?”“Yes, yes, deal.” I quickly said, before the call cut; it only took a second for a notification to com
