Vera Anderson's POV

I was in my bed and seriously in deep thought internalizing everything that happened in META. I can't help myself but worried about Royce. He has already facing a lot of problems. and I know how hard it is on his part. Suddenly my phone rang. I hurriedly picked it up as soon as I read Royce's name flashed on the screen.

"Yes babe, are you now at home?", I asked.

"Yeah..Uhm, I forgot to tell you. It slipped off my mind, tssk.. It's Vince's birthday today. He called me this morning and told me to come with you to Skybar"

"We need to be there or else my best friend would become upset. Anyway, it's just the four of us, And I guess you also want to see Alexa right?", he said.

"Yes, I already missed my best friend. I wanted to have some chitchats with her. Are you going to pick me up? Or I'll bring my car?"

"Of course, I'll come and pick you up later at 7;30. See you around babe. I'm hanging up", he said, afterwards, I heard a beep sound.

    Royce Miller's POV I arrived home late at night. I walked into my room and took my artificial wig. Then, I went to Reid's room to sleep. It's been a month already since I slept in his room and I am gradually used to it. I heaved a deep sigh when I remembered my twin brother's situation. I'm hoping he will get better soon, so we can work together to resolve issues in META. I slumped down my body on the soft mattress after I got dressed in my pajamas. I suddenly remembered Vera and I can't help but smile whenever I think of her. She is my happy pill and my stress reliever. I love her so much that I'm planning to marry her after everything falls in its right place. Suddenly, I remembered my brother's cellphone so I stood up and opened the drawer, and took it out. I scrolled over the phone until I happened to click the sound recording. Anger rose again in my heart after I listened to that bitch's voice who broke my brother's heart. She was playing around huh? She had to pay for it and I

    Vera Anderson's POV I arrived at META at 6:30 in the morning. I only had a little sleep but I still wanted to report to the office. Royce is not yet around and I think he would be late in coming here. I cleaned the tables and chairs with a feather duster. Then I turned on the aircon. Afterwards, I opened the PC on my desk and started checking Royce's appointments. He has a business transaction with the Manager of the Rising Talent Agency. I looked at my watch and it's now seven. Royce is supposed to be here at this hour. I grabbed my phone and started dialing his number, but he was not picking up. I texted him, but he did not respond. I'm already worried about him, thinking that maybe he is not feeling well. But why did he not text me? I asked it mentally. I dialed his number again, hoping that he'll gonna answer this time until it turns to fifteen missed calls already. My heart beats fast because I feel like there's something wrong. I waited for another two hours but he is not comin

I don't want to go home. I'm sure Nanny would be asking me what was going on if she sees me crying. After a while, I saw Vince's car pass the driveway. I don't know if he saw me. He doesn't even care!It was already twelve noon and I feel hungry but I don't want to eat anything. Royce's painful words kept on coming back to my mind and they struck my heart a thousand times. I want someone to talk to and the first person that came to my mind is my friend Alexa. I don't want to believe that it's really happening! Royce would never believe me. He thought of me as Andrea who broke his brother's heart. But how could that be possible? Why do I have those pictures naked in bed with different men? I didn't do anything to Reid and God knows! I was just wrongly accused."Hello gurl, wassup?", I heard Alexa's

    Royce Miller's POVI woke up with a heavy heart and I don't know if I can still go on. My mind is filled with Vera's thoughts no matter how much I wanted to forget her. It's not so easy to just accept that everything is fine like there's nothing happened at all. I loved her without knowing that she was the woman who broke my brother's heart. I was such a damn fool, for believing that she really loved me. I hate her! And I hope our roads will not cross again because I don't know what I could possibly do to her. I got up from bed and grabbed my towel. I need to go to the office for a board meeting. But before I could get inside the bathroom, my phone rang. It was Alexa. I'm sure she was calling because of Vera."Royce, you're such unfair! You're nothing but a worthless person! You were supposed to believe Vera more than anybody else! More than those fake pictures!", Alexa lashed out in rage."Alexa, I understand that you're just trying to defend Vera because she is your best friend. Bu

    Vera Anderson's POVMy heart kept on thudding inside my chest when Alexa told me that I have the possibility of getting pregnant since I am already two weeks delayed from my monthly period. I began to feel uneasy while waiting for her to come home. She was out for a while to go to the nearest pharmacy to buy a Pregnancy Test just to check my situation. She was supposed to bring me to a Gynecologist for a clinical urine test but I refused so she suggested buying a PT instead.After a while, she arrived home bringing a PT so I immediately walked into the restroom to take a urine sample. I was getting more and more uneasy while waiting for the result. I closed my eyes for a while silently hoping it would have a negative result. But as soon as I opened my eyes, I was dilated when I saw the two red lines, which means it's positive and I'm pregnant. I remembered we did not use any contraceptives the last time we had sex.Suddenly I heard a soft knock on the door "Girl, are you okay?", Alexa

    Vera Anderson's POV I went out of Royce's office feeling devastated. Everything seems dark like I was inside a tunnel where I could see no light, even just a dim light. I hurriedly ran to the elevator with tears dripping from my eyes. Ah, this is going to be my last time here. From now on, I promise to forget Royce and start a new life. The story between Royce and me is now over. And I don't want to remember anything from him. And even though I am carrying his child, still I don't know him. He is nothing but a worthless coward! "I hate you, Royce...I promise, you will never see me again!", I said to myself while wiping my tears away. When I heard the ding sound of the elevator, I hurriedly got off. I met some employees on my way to the entrance door. They greeted me, but I just nodded without looking at them. I don't care anymore. I'm no longer part of META. I'm no longer part of Royce's life. I was heading to where Alexa parked her car. We were just using her car in coming here and

I recently found out, she was the woman who broke my brother's heart". I responded with a blank expression.Walter knitted his brows in confusion. He was staring at me like he wanted to ask what was going on. He was silent and waited until I opened up to him.

    Vera's POVOne week had passed after my last conversation with Royce yet the sting of our farewell was still present. I thought it would be easy for me but with each passing day, I felt an inexplicable sadness and emptiness deep within. I was supposed to be happy with my decision but it did not turn out as I expected to happen. Until I found myself aimlessly scrolling through my phone, ending up in the recycle bin. The photos of Royce and me, which I had previously removed, were still there. As I looked at them, my tears began to flow one by one, as I yearned for those times we spent together.Dave on the other hand was just waiting for me to say 'yes' to his marriage proposal. I was supposed to accept his offer a day after I said goodbye to Royce but suddenly I found myself in a state of confusion. "What's wrong sweetie?", Harold asked anxiously while we were having breakfast one morning."I noticed that you've been like that for a few days. Do you think your Mom would be happy to k

    Vera's POVI was resting in my bed, yet sleep eluded me. I kept on thinking about Royce and how he took the bullets that were intended for me. I was just thankful that nothing bad happened to him, otherwise, I couldn't find peace of mind in my lifetime.Reid and Mrs. Miller asked me to stay in the hospital until Royce woke up. But I decided to leave since I did not want him to see me. I was eternally grateful to him for saving me and my baby, and for that, I had already forgiven him. That was all.Meanwhile, I was thinking about Margaret. Finally, we got justice for Andrea. Her life imprisonment would be enough to pay for all the things she did to me, to my sister, and Roxette. Suddenly, Harold was knocking at the door. I knew that it was him since he usually knocked three times."Yes boo, come in!", I said.Harold entered my room and sat on my bed. "How are you, sweetie?""I'm fine boo.""Uhm, what do you want to do now sweetie? Are you still planning to go to Canada and settle the

    Vera's POV While the jury was still deliberating about Margaret's cases, we took first a break outside. Vince approached us while Royce remained seated on a couch a little distant from us. "Hi babe!", Vince greeted Alexa with a kiss, and then he turned to me. "Hi Vera", he said and hugged me. "Hello, Vince. It's good to see you here! Uhm, by the way, this is my Mom. I mean, my biological mother and my younger sister", I said. "Hmm. Yes. Alexa told me about it", Vince responded and greeted Mom. "Hi, Aunt Olivia. Hello, little girl!", he messed up my little sister's long hair. She was a shy-type girl but according to my mother, she was not like this before when Andrea was still alive. She was attached to my twin sister so until now, she still couldn't move on from what happened. "Uhm, Vince let me introduce to you my friend Dave." "Dave, this is Vince, Alexa's boyfriend." Vince smiled and greeted him with a handshake. "Hi, bro! Nice meeting you." Dave returned the smile, but s

    Vera's POV It was my alarm clock that woke me up from sleep. Despite the early hour, I had to get up due to Margaret's impending trial, a day I had been eagerly anticipating. I was hopeful for a just verdict that would make Margaret accountable for her actions. After this, I would be staying in Canada for good. This had been my plan before but it did not realize because I still wanted Margaret to pay for Identity Theft and most importantly, for killing my sister. My mother and I had already concurred on this. I would be living with her and my younger sister to make up those times we were not together. And--- Dave unexpectedly crossed my mind. I pondered over the possibility of accepting his marriage proposal. After all, he was a decent man, and eventually, I would learn to love him. But what if I fail? Everyone advised me to accept Dave's proposal for my baby's sake. Yet, I harbored doubts, as I didn't want to take advantage of his kindness. It would be unfair to him. A phone ca

    Royce's POV For us to avoid the media men, Reid and I took the elevator going to the basement. "Bro, are you okay?", I asked and tapped his shoulder, Reid just let out a heavy sigh, instead of answering my question. "Are we going home now bro? I think you need to take some rest", I said as I started the engine. "Nope, bro. Let's drop by at the police station. I wanted to see that traitor friend of mine!", Reid gritted his teeth as he emphasized the word 'traitor'. I did as what I was told to do but I did not bother to talk to him while we were on our way. I knew he was not okay. The corners of his mouth turned down in a sad frown while his brows furrowed. His complexion paled as if the blood had drained from his face. His gaze was a mixture of pain and anger for being betrayed by his best friend. A few moments later, we arrived at the police station. Reid got out of the car first so I hurried to get out as well. We entered at the entrance door and the first thing that caught ou

    Royce's POV Finally, the stars were aligned with us. With the help of our competent detectives, the police were able to catch the other kidnappers involved in Reid's kidnapping incident. We also found out that one of them was the driver who bumped into Dad's car, so, that person was indicted in a murder case. The police asked him the reason for killing my father but he said he was just following an order from his 'boss'—something that was baffling in my mind. Moreover, Nicholas Monet, also known as 'Simon Morris' was caught by the authorities at the LA Cruise Terminal when he was about to board a cruise ship. This time, I would make sure that this fucking asshole would be put behind bars and pay for all the crimes he committed. However, the person who ordered him to illicitly withdraw funds from our account was not yet identified. Until now, I still couldn't figure out who was behind it. On the other hand, Uncle Sam and Charles were already convicted of embezzlement and attempted

    Royce's POV As soon as mom saw us at the door, she felt a sense of relief that was like a soothing balm, easing the worry that gnawed her heart from the time Reid was kidnapped until I left to meet the kidnappers. She quickly ran towards us and opened her arms. "Reid! Oh! God Thank you so much!", mom exclaimed and hugged us while tears of joy rolled down her cheeks. "Are you okay son? Did they not hurt you?" "I'm fine, mom", Reid responded softly. "Royce! Thank you for fulfilling your promise to bring your brother back home. I'm glad you are both safe!", she said as she wiped her tears away. Her face lit up with a bright smile whispering words of love and joy as she embraced us warmly. But despite her smile, restlessness was evident in her eyes, indicating the need for her to get some rest. So Reid and I accompanied her to her room and waited until she had drifted off to sleep. Together we left mom's room, moving quietly so as not to disturb her. "Bro, I think you need to take

    Royce's POV The ransom demanded for the release of my brother was already inside the money bag. Everything was set ready, but still waiting for the kidnappers' call to provide the precise location of our meetup. They insisted that I would come alone and I had to follow them for my brother's safety. However, the police had organized a backup team that would support me in carrying out my plan. Suddenly our residence telephone rang. I hurriedly picked it up for I thought it was coming from the kidnappers. "Good morning sir. This is from Ally Bank. We would like to inform you that your family savings account is temporarily frozen because we noticed suspicious activity", the bank personnel spoke intently. "What do you mean suspicious activity sir?", I asked in confusion. "After you had withdrawn the substantial sum of 100 million dollars, another transaction took place, depleting 500 million dollars from the account. It was only later when we discovered that Reid Miller's signature wa
