Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 174. The Easiest Way
“B- Bro- B-Big Brother…”Her trembling lips wouldn't let her speak coherently.Haley blinked rapidly at the man standing in front of her.Holding onto the door, she found herself unable to move an inch. “Because you don't want marriage, you're hiding here, Haley-” Andrew said, worry mixed with helplessness masking his expression. He stared at her from head to toe, shaking his head. “Lemme guess… you haven't eaten yet. Are you drowning yourself in sadness?”Haley looked down. Indeed, she'd look famished despite eating just now. After all, she was just recovering from a fever which almost took her life. “Uhm, Brother… why're you here?”She was stuttering again, and the frown on Andrew's face deepened.He made way to walk past her, but she blocked his path.To say her heart was racing was an understatement.What if Andrew went in and saw Liam's things?He'd definitely demand to know whom they belonged to.And everyone who knew Joye knew that he was Liam's assistant.What if her brot
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 175. A Part of An Act
The easiest way out?Haley couldn't help but glance at him again. Reading his expression carefully, she was suddenly mortified.Her fingers trembled as she gripped the hem of her dress, and she avoided his gaze at all costs. Damnit!Cursing inside, Haley shut her eyes.Why was she confused at her brother's sudden support of her wedding with Harry?The answer was obvious, and she failed to detect it. “Bro, I can explain…” Haley murmured, yet, she could say nothing further.As if her brother wasn't willing to listen either, he simply sighed and continued driving. Haley fought the urge to slap her forehead out of embarrassment. It was useless anyway. It was too late, but the last person she wanted to misunderstand her was her brother. “It's not what you're thinking…” She finally summoned the courage to say. Although, Haley doubted he'd believe it.Seeing was believing, and he must have gotten all his answers from the surveillance footage.Andrew owned the Villa Estates.He must h
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 176. Deadline!
…At The Villa Estates.Beep.Beep.Beep.That irritating sound made Liam want to crush the phone.He hung up on him.That damned man!“Where were you when he took her away!?” He turned to his assistant, ready to rain all his frustration on him.However, Joye was trembling in a corner, his head lowered, avoiding his eyes.“Answer me or lose your job!” Liam clenched his fists.Yet,The assistant's demeanor had Liam convinced that whatever he said would only worsen his rage towards him. Liam just had to return minutes ago to find Haley not home.While the guy he'd entrusted her to was foolishly lounging on the living room's couch, watching TV.Literally,The assistant had forgotten about Haley whom he claimed went to receive someone at the door.It was either Haley snuck out, or somebody took her away.It turned out to be the latter when Liam confirmed with the security men that Andrew Woods came and took her.“Damnit!”Cursing under his breath, Liam tossed his phone across the couch.
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 177. Her Wedding
…Before they arrived home, Haley's headache had already intensified.The dizziness also returned just like last night and she felt like fainting again. Sigh!Maybe she shouldn't have left the Villa yet. Her medications were there and she hadn't even recovered.Telling her brother that she was sick wasn't a good idea either. She'd rather not burden him. So Haley pretended she was sleeping throughout the rest of the ride.And she feared the burning fever inside her might give her away. On this warm afternoon, bouts of sweat poured down her forehead.“Are you alright?” Her brother's voice came from the driver's seat. He had not said anything ever since Liam called. He'd not spoken a word to her, but his anger was evident in his demeanor.Shaking her head, Haley forced a smile. “I'm fine.”Yet, her voice came out weak and hoarse. Haley couldn't wait to get home. She couldn't wait to get to her room and take a day-long rest.If possible, she'd avoid her parents at all costs. No
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 178. A Perfect Match
Such a tight deadline.The evening? Haley dropped her phone, sensing another headache coming. She thought the wedding was in three days, and she still had some time to alternate between resting and adding the finishing touches to the jewelry.Great!Just great!Wasn't William Nash the biggest asshole on earth?Was this how he treated his employees? Strangely, Haley didn't receive any message from him asking her to finish the jewelry soon. Something must have come up from Nelson's part and they needed the jewelry soon.Why did he ask the assistant to notify only Crystal and not her?Liam was still rooting for her failure so he could shame her.How unbelievable.Haley got down from the bed and washed up. Resting was a far-fetched dream when she had a heavy task ahead of her. She made herself some ginger tea to warm up her body's temperature.After drinking it, Haley felt a bit better.Her body no longer shivered, and the fever was gone. Knowing the ginger tea’s effect might wear
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 179. Engaged
…That guy again!Liam frowned, staring at the surveillance footage. After turning the whole city upside down, he was just notified that Haley had been on a date.Literally, she was with another man. Crushing the device in his hand, Liam tossed it across the floor. It was no wonder he couldn't find her in the Woods Mansion or her former apartment. Haley was ill.Yet, she still had the guts to go on a date in a coffee shop. Liam glanced at the other report sitting on the table.It contained all the information about that guy, the lawyer.Harry Lawson was from a first-class socialite family.Of all women, why would he have his eyes on an orphan girl?By the way, his family wasn't going to approve of his relationship with Haley. “Mr. Nash, these are the only details I have for now. But, tomorrow-”“No need.” Liam cut the private investigator off.These details were enough already.He needed no more information to confirm that Haley had gotten into a relationship with another man.F
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 180. Found Out The Truth
…He'd completely changed. What caused that?If not, had Harry come up with a new kind of act?Who was she kidding?Standing on the balcony that connected to her room, Haley leaned by the pillar, folding her arms across her chest.With Harry's actions still bugging her, she barely had any sleep last night. The guy appeared in the coffee shop out of nowhere and made her realize his intentions for her were real. Now, Haley couldn't differentiate fiction from reality.Wasn't this supposed to be an act?Why was Harry taking it too far?Still left in confusion and bewilderment, her mind had no room for anger. She'd questioned Harry why he was doing that, and he just smiled at her, saying they were perfect for each other.“Young Miss.”The soft voice startled Haley and she turned around to find a young maid holding a huge box. “You have a message… from Mr. Lawson.” As she spoke, she blushed and stared at the box. “I think it's a dress, Young Miss… isn't he romantic?”Haley wanted to ro
Divorced Heiress Strikes Back 181. What Exactly He Wants
