Heiress's Haunted Heart Chapter 32
Juliette stood at the door, adorned in a stunning floral printed summer dress. Her hair cascaded in long wavy curls, complemented by a subtle shine of lip gloss. With a gentle knock on the door, she anxiously awaited a response. Within mere moments, Daniel swung open the door to find Juliette, causing his face to light up with joy. Their eyes met, and without hesitation, they embraced each other lightly, reveling in the warmth of their connection. Once inside, Juliette gracefully settled onto the couch while Daniel kindly offered her a glass of water. Grateful for the hydration, she thanked him. As he sat down beside her, their thighs gently brushed against one another. Daniel inquired about her day at work, his curiosity evident in his voice. "It was alright. I actually took the rest of the week off," Juliette replied, a hint of excitement in her voice. "Really? And why is that?" Daniel playfully teased, a mischievous smile on his face. Juliette couldn't help but giggle before mus

"Why did you kill John?" Adrienne demanded, her voice filled with a mix of anger and disbelief. He was taken aback by her accusation, his expression quickly shifting to confusion. "Huh? Kill? John? Who's John?" he asked, trying to feign innocence. "Come on, stop playing dumb. Do I look like a fool to you?" Adrienne said, her frustration evident as she pushed his chest back and sat up. "I have no idea what you are talking about," he replied, maintaining his façade. "There's absolutely no way my baby killed John. If he didn't, then you are the next suspect," Adrienne declared firmly. "Your baby? Your stupid assistant, Daniel?" he retorted, a stern look on his face. "Whatever, you are the one I suspect," she said, her voice unwavering. "What the hell is that supposed to mean? And who is this John? Why do you suspect that I have something to do with this John's death?" he demanded, his tone firm. "Because I have watched you do even worse things over the past years and stop playing

It was a sunny Saturday morning, and Adrienne arrived at the convention center accompanied by Lucy and Lisa. Together, their companies had partnered with Haven's cosmetics for a trade fair. As they entered, they were greeted by a stunning setup adorned with special makeup and skincare combos, enticing free merchandise, and an array of entertaining games. Surrounding them were the sounds of laughter and chatter as attendees happily shopped, engaged in heartfelt conversations, and tested out various fun activities. Adrienne scanned the lively crowd, her eyes landing on Ryan. He sported a hoodie that boasted the "Rie X Haven" logo, one of the event's exclusive personalized items. Adrienne also donned their merchandise, opting for the t-shirt paired with blue denim pants and comfortable black sneakers. Her hair cascaded down her shoulders, framing her beaming smile as she made her way towards Ryan. "Hey there," Adrienne greeted him warmly. "Hiii," Ryan replied, enveloping her in an unex

Adrienne sat in her usual meditation pose, lost in deep thought. With Daniel still on his leave and set to return to work tomorrow, and Ryan, her newfound friend who she had become attached to, already out of the country and not returning for two months, she felt a sense of loneliness creeping in. And then, there was boss. Although he had apologized to her the last time they met, Adrienne had no intention of crossing paths with him anytime soon. To make matters worse, Lucy, her usual companion, was also absent. Sundays were typically lonely for Adrienne, as Lucy rarely worked on weekends. Today was no exception, leaving Adrienne feeling more alone than ever before. The feeling reminded her of the first few days after waking up from her coma years ago, when her life had been pure hell. Back then, she had experienced unclear trances frequently and felt completely alone in the world. The incident had wiped away most of her memories, leaving her in a constant state of confusion. Lost i

"Who is this?" Lisa asked, her tone slightly impatient. "Oh, you must be one of her workers. Please tell her that her future sister-in-law wants to speak with her," the teenage girly voice said, trying to sound important. "Sister-in-law?" Adrienne muttered, her confusion evident as she tried to place the caller's identity. "Hi Renee," Adrienne said, finally recognizing the voice on the other end of the line. "Now that's the Adrienne's voice I know," Renee said, sounding relieved. "How are you doing? I have been expecting your call since the day I gave you my number," Adrienne said, an undercurrent of disappointment in her voice. "I didn't want to disturb you with calls or texts and honestly, I kinda forgot. Can you believe that? Can you imagine?" Renee teased, trying to lighten the mood and laughing at her own forgetfulness. "Yeah, I know why. Ryan told me a boy you've liked for a while finally asked you to be his girlfriend. It's understandable how you forgot to call," Adrienne

"Hi, good morning," Adrienne greeted the doctor with a warm smile. "Ah, Adrienne Davison. I have been expecting you," he said, acknowledging her presence with a nod. "Doctor...?" Adrienne questioned, wanting to address him properly. "Doctor Brad," he introduced himself, extending a hand towards her. "Oh, cool," Adrienne replied, shaking his hand politely. "Please, have a seat. So, have you made a decision yet?" he inquired, leaning forward slightly. "Yeah. I need your help in getting rid of this bump," Adrienne said with a determined tone, pointing to the small, almost imperceptible bump on her head. "Bump? Oh," Doctor Brad responded, realizing the cause of her visit. "Is that why you are here?" he asked, concern evident in his voice. "Um...yes. I want you to remove it," Adrienne confirmed, hoping for a solution. "Come on. I know there's more to it than just that bump. I can tell you're conflicted. Should I arrange a meeting with a counselor for you?" Doctor Brad proposed, se

"Forget it," she responded coldly, her voice weak. Daniel left the room, feeling puzzled. He checked his phone and came across the selfie that Adrienne sent yesterday. "Juliette must have opened it yesterday," he realized. "Is Adrienne mad at me?" Daniel wondered, feeling a mix of concern and guilt. He made his way to the living room and saw that Mrs. Davison was still there. "You guys haven't left?" Daniel asked, noticing Mrs. Davison and her boyfriend still in the room. "My baby had to get something for me. He'll be back soon," Mrs. Davison explained, referring to her boyfriend. "Oh," Daniel replied, feeling a bit uneasy. Mrs. Davison sensed Daniel's discomfort and decided to address the underlying tension. "Is everything okay between you and Adrienne?" she asked sincerely, as she took a seat next to him. Daniel hesitated before answering, unsure of how much to disclose. "I'm not sure. I don't think everything is okay," he finally admitted. Concerned for Daniel, Mrs. Davis

Adrienne arrived at his house, clad in an oversized hoodie and joggers. A pallor had settled on her face, her eyes weighed down with exhaustion. Wearing slides, with little care for her appearance, she entered into the room, her focus solely on their usual spot. To her relief, he wasn't present upon entering. A sigh of temporary reprieve escaped her lips. However, her respite proved short-lived as he emerged from the bathroom, draped in a towel firmly secured around his waist. Startled by Adrienne's presence, his brows furrowed in displeasure as he surveyed her disheveled appearance. "Why are you here before our designated meeting time? And why do you look so disheveled?" His words were sharp and biting. Adrienne's sense of relief dissipated, replaced by a growing fear. She knew all too well how he acted when angered. "I... I..." Her voice trailed off, words falling flat. "What's wrong?" he pressed, edging closer towards her. "I... I'm feeling a bit unwell," Adrienne stammered, he

"Lincoln is dead."Adrienne was shocked."He is dead? Just like that? Why? How?" She asked.Richard was silent, and when she looked into his eyes, she saw the answers to her questions."You are responsible for this? You had him killed?""I'm sorry. I had to do it for Juliette. I know I should have told you, but I didn't want to," Richard said.Adrienne was speechless. She closed her eyes, trying to piece together exactly how she felt about the situation."I should give you some time to yourself." He wanted to leave, but Adrienne pushed him back, making him lie on the bed.She climbed over him and grabbed his chin."Why should I be mad at you? He deserved to die," Adrienne said softly, lowering her head to kiss him.Richard was so relieved, and he kissed her back passionately.She moved her lips to his jaw, his neck, and his chest and traced a path down to his waistline.She gazed at him with a sultry look in her eyes as she slipped her hands into his pants and set his excited member f

"Prison? What the hell?" Adrienne's voice quivered."Juliette gave that document to the police. She wanted to hurt me after I refused to take her side. The document had evidence of my illegal arms deals," Richard said."Arms deals? That's how you got wealthy, right?" Adrienne asked and Richard nodded."The Chief offered me a deal. He said he would give me the video Rosa sent to the police if I let him arrest me as a 'big criminal' to boost his promotion chances," Richard explained."What? No, that's a terrible deal! That's like trading a bread factory for a loaf of bread. You didn't agree to that, did you?" Adrienne said."Of course not. Rosa's video was useless to us. But I thought about it. I would get caught sooner or later if someone found out, or one of my partners got busted, or someone dug into my past. I know the Chief, so he's being easy on me. He could end our 'relationship' and arrest me with what he has. Luckily, that's not the case. If or when he gets promoted, there

"Boss? He hasn't called himself that in a while," Adrienne thought, smiling shyly.She sniffed the roses and they smelled lovely. She hoped there was a note inside, but there wasn't.She remembered the last time he sent her flowers with a note. It was months ago and the note only had 'I' on it."Where did I put it?" She wondered, searching her drawers. She finally found the note and looked at it for a few seconds."He never finished this sentence," Adrienne said.She set it aside and put on the dress.The dress was black with a strap and a sweetheart neckline and a ruched bust. It had mesh inserts at the waist with vertical lines and draped fabric that wrapped around the midsection. The slit on one side was indeed dangerously high."I am sure he can survive a little skin," Adrienne thought as she admired the dress.Wait. Where are we meeting? Adrienne wondered.She read the note again and he didn't say where they were meeting, he just said 'wear this tonight'.Does he want to meet at

"Hello, Adrienne," he said.She spun around and saw Ryan. Her eyes widened in shock."You're the witness? You're testifying against me?" she exclaimed."What witness? I'm here to watch the trial. What are you talking about?" he asked, puzzled.She snorted and turned away. "Whatever," she muttered, crossing her arms.He sat behind her, still taken aback by her coldness.The door opened again, and this time, the footsteps were that of a stiletto. It was a woman.Everyone turned to see who it was, and it was Annabelle.Adrienne scoffed. "She didn't tell me she was coming to Nigeria for the trial."As Annabelle got closer, Adrienne waved at her, but Annabelle ignored her and went straight to the witness stand.Adrienne's jaw dropped. Annabelle was the witness? After everything she had done for her?She glared at her as she swore the oath."You're in for a rude awakening," Annabelle whispered as she sat down.Adrienne felt her heart pounding, her forehead sweating, and her throat tighten

Adrienne felt a surge of anxiety as she entered the courtroom with Richard by her side. The day was finally here; Linc's trial.She glanced at the defendants' table, where Lincoln sat with his lawyer. He looked smug and confident, as if he had nothing to worry about. He met her gaze and smirked, making her shiver. It brought back memories of the nights she was locked up in that old farmhouse.She squeezed Richard's hand, grateful for his support. He had been her rock throughout this ordeal, always there to comfort her, protect her, and encourage her.The judge entered the room and everyone stood up. The trial began, and Adrienne listened as her lawyer presented the charges and the evidence against Lincoln. She felt a surge of hope as she saw the jury's expressions of shock and disgust. She hoped that they would see Lincoln for what he was: a monster who deserved to rot in jail.Then it was Lincoln's lawyer's turn to speak. He stood up and cleared his throat, looking at the jury with

Linc's body was thrown out of the car and onto the sidewalk as the car speedily drove off. He groaned in pain on the floor. A concerned stranger rushed to Linc's side to help him up, but Linc aggressively pushed the man away. This made other passersby ignore Linc and cross to the other side of the road. Despite the pain, he managed to stand up on his feet, his whole body hurting. As he looked around, trying to decipher his exact location, his eyes spotted a police station, and a smirk etched onto his face."They think they can get away with treating me like this," Linc said maliciously as he limped to the police station. Richard had given him a really bad beating, and he couldn't even walk properly. Every breath Linc took hurt him in his chest because of the impact of Richard's punches. "Darn you, Richard!" Linc cursed.As he entered the station, he collapsed onto the floor, putting on a show. "Help me, please. Help me. I was kidnapped by the Oh so famous Adrienne Davison and her

She hesitantly opened the files, and a flood of videos and photos appeared on the screen."That's a lot," Richard observed.Adrienne clicked on the first video, which showed Linc and Juliette having sex."Huh? Why would she send me this? I thought she promised something life-changing?" Adrienne rolled her eyes in frustration and flung her phone aside."You've been quick to lose patience over small things lately. Could it be the pregnancy hormones?" Richard inquired, concern lacing his voice."Ugh!" Adrienne exhaled in annoyance.Sensing her irritation, Richard extended his hand to soothe her by gently patting her back."Why don't we take our time and carefully review everything on the card?" he suggested."Okay. I'm sorry for snapping," she said with a soft, apologetic tone."That's better," Richard said, smoothing her hair affectionately."Come here," he gestured.Richard picked up the discarded phone, settled back on the bed, and Adrienne snuggled up to him, resting her head on his

Adrienne and Richard kissed passionately while Adrienne gently rode Richard on the bed. It was a slow and intimate dance as Richard’s hands caressed and worshipped her curves.He had arrived at the hotel and their brief conversation turned into a passionate encounter. After their lovemaking, Adrienne laid her forehead on Richard's."That was beautiful," he said, softly caressing her left cheek with his thumb.He then gripped her waist firmly and quickly flipped her over, hovering above her now. He looked at her deeply, still enjoying the afterglow of their passion."Why did you do that? I didn't want you to come out of me yet. I'm feeling hollow now. Empty!" Adrienne whined playfully, feigning annoyance.Richard chuckled. "Come on. We need to shower, and we have to be careful. I don't want to accidentally bump into Amelia. Look how quickly she's growing inside you," he said, rubbing Adrienne's belly."It's Ethan, and I wasn't even moving, so there's no way you could have hit him," Ad

Adrienne had cried herself to sleep and woke up in the evening. She checked her phone and saw tons of missed calls and messages from Richard."Why didn't you say anything?""Are you okay? Did something happen?""Please call me."Those were some of the texts from Richard. She didn't know what to say or how to explain her feelings and instead of replying to his texts or calling him back, she texted Lisa. She made a list of things she needed Lisa to bring and sent it along with the address.Then, Adrienne washed her face, went downstairs, and got into her car.***"What's going on? What are we doing here?" Lisa asked Adrienne as she followed her, carrying two big bags in her hands.Adrienne ignored her and walked quickly towards the entrance of the building. It was a large, white mansion with a sign that read "Joygood Memorial Park". Lisa had a bad feeling about this place. It was a private cemetery for the rich and powerful, where they buried their secrets and scandals, not just the
