I took a look at the mansion one last time. I felt extremely pathetic that someone like me would let myself be played with like this.
I should have sensed that. All these years, he never bothered to know me more and even the maids got more chances to see him than me. How could I be so naive to believe that such a cold man would ever treat me differently?
No, he is not that cold. It’s just his tenderness was never for me... I was just a nobody…
"Well, well, looks like you're finally leaving?" A voice filled with mockery came from my back and when I looked back I saw Dia, she is one of the maids. She glanced from my suitcase to my face. Lomi, another maid, stood next to her.
"Awww…I wanna say we are going to be so hurt and miss you but that will be a very nasty lie. If you go, who will do all our house chores?" Dia added.
"Is everything okay Mrs Lydia? Mrs. King asked us to pack your things." Lomi asked with sincere worry in her tone. I bit my lip to prevent myself from breaking down at the question. I didn’t want to show any weakness before I left, especially to those who had hurt me.
Dia gave her an angry glance and mouthered for her to shut up.
"Next time stay in your place and avoid looking for rich men to get married to, you this gold digger." Dia spat with disgust in her tone.
"Stop it." Lomi cautioned sternly. Dia eyed her but in a flash, I slapped her hard.
Who the hell did she think she was talking to? I had been called different names like pathetic, poor, needy but one thing I would never play with is calling me a gold digger when I have never ever cared about his money.
"Don't ever speak to me like that ever again" I stared at her with coldness.
Pouring out my frustration on her, this was the last straw because I was sick and tired of how much they had all walked on me.
She was about to speak when I raised my hand up to stop her, "Shut the fuck up! Now you better know your place and stay there. Dumb little girl."
It felt so thrilling to say this, to let out all the bottled anger. She removed her hand from her face slowly moving towards me but Lomi held her back.
My phone rang loudly and I took deep breaths before picking up.
"Are you ready?" Andrew asked and I nodded before saying 'yes.'
"Alright, almost there." He said then we exchanged goodbyes.
Suspicion slid through Dia’s eyes but I didn’t give a shit what she was planning.
I turned around to Lomi and gave her a hug. She was the only one that cared about me in this home. She was always trying to help within her power.
"Bye Mrs Lydia, I hope you find the peace and love you deserve because you've truly been a gem in this household and I'm going to miss you." Lomi said with her voice trembling.
"Thank you Lomi. Really thank you so much." I spoke and she nodded, giving me a warm smile.
A honk came up from outside the door. A smile creeped on my face when I saw the man standing beside the black Rolls Royce. His lips curled into a smile and I instantly ran into his open arms.
"I'm so sorry…I really am sorry." I apologized repeatedly as he pulled for a bear hug.
"It's okay, thank goodness you're fine." He whispered in my ear exhaling in relief. “Dad is waiting for you back home. You have no idea how excited he was when he heard the news that you are coming home.”
I wiped my tears after his words and asked with a little worry. “Isn’t dad angry at me for leaving home for so long?”
“Silly girl. What’s family for? We’ll always be here for you no matter what you do.”
I almost burst into tears again but I held it back because I didn’t want my brother to worry about me.
How silly was I during these years? I abandoned the family who loved me without any condition for all my life and came here to take care of the people who treated me like trash. It’s all because of the stupid decision that I made.
I knew I must have broken their hearts when I hid my identity to marry Nathan. They paved the most smooth way for me and I chose the hardest one. Stupid girl who chose love over family!
Now I am more conscious than ever before. And no one could hurt my family again, not even me!

NATHAN'S POV:I was completely exhausted and drained and was about to head home after a long day. I had visited Aubrey and surprisingly the doctors had said she was slowly getting better and that added some light to my day. My happiness died down when I remembered it was all because of her that I lost Lydia and I still haven't heard a word from her."Hello?" I picked up my phone with an attitude while sitting in the back of Range Rover as the driver started the car."Watch your tone." She spoke sternly and I pursed my lips not really in the mood to hear her go off. My mum had been calling and texting all day and I hadn't replied because she always seemed to have the wrong word to say to set me off."Your sister is back! So let's have dinner tonight and I don't want to hear no buts." She hung up afterwards and I sighed deeply.My little sister, Rachel, had been out of the country for a while spending time with her boyfriend who I had not met. Rachel was literally my mum's twin, she loo

NATHAN'S POV.I stared at my phone in disbelief. She really just hung up on me?? I sat there about to open the letter that she had left for me. Though I was dreading it, but, I needed to. As I slowly opened the letter, my mum barged into my office and shut the door behind her hastily."They are here." She whispered and I looked confused. "Your sister's boyfriend's family." I was completely thrown off but that. I had no idea she was even in a relationship."Hurry out. They are the Wilist Family and they own the largest construction company in this country. Can you just imagine how wealthy we would be if the two families merged?" She was simply excited and the amount of desire for her to amass wealth was oftentimes worrisome. "I will right there." I spoke flatly and she sucked her teeth in irritation mumbling how I was always so nonchalant and boring until she exited my office. I hid the letter back into my cabinet and exhaled deeply strolling out the room. Three new faces were added

She was wearing a pink Her blonde hair was packed up in a messy bun and she seemed healthier than I have seen her in the last few years."Yes sir. She just needs to be catered for and probably a nurse to come check on her every few weeks." I frowned at that, turning around to face him."A nurse to check on her improvements and blood count. Catered for in the sense that she needs to eat healthy and be monitored that she's indeed eating well." He explained seeing the look on my face and I nodded my head in understanding. I locked eyes with Jenny as she preferred to be addressed and she smiled from ear to ear."Nathan!" She squealed in excitement and ran to hug me. I gave her a tight-lipped smile and hugged her back."You're feeling better?" I inquired, breaking the hug and staring

I want you to be involved in the affairs of the company and know the in and out of everything. So you can finally take your place at the company. Or do you have something else you're interested in?"

Lydia's POV: I gathered my things and she flaunted her hands in my face. My eyes almost bulged out of their socket when I saw a diamond ring and I held her hand. "You're getting married?" I squealed in excitement and she nodded frantically with a smile on her face. "Yes, Darren proposed last month." Darren was her on and off boyfriend since college and he always seemed to be a player as he was an athlete. Hearing that he was finally acting right and putting a smile on my best friend's face brought me nothing but joy. We strolled downstairs and she filled me in on how he proposed at Eiffel Tower after her show in Paris. I smiled listening as the driver, Mr Fil, opened the back seat of the black Rolls Royce for us. "That had to be the happiest day of my life." She concluded and I chessed teasing her. "So where to?" Mr Fil asked, looking at us through the glass. ********** We arrived at the spa and I had gotten my nails painted in baby blue and cream. While we were meant to be cat

LYDIA’S POV.I sat in my dad's home office opening a bunch of files and books he had given to me to read about the company. He hadn't told me the position that was waiting for me at the company but he had slightly hinted on the position of the C.F.O. I was a bit giddy at the thought of being the Chief Financial Officer but I cautioned myself. Lorena and I were the same, we stayed delusion. Unlike me, her delusion became true. Tonight was the official engagement party and I had caught a few symptoms of pregnancy on her. Well not few but her constant cravings and nonchalance to eating anywhere without a care in the world. Either it was growth or my suspicions were right."Why was this large amount of money deposited into this account?" I asked myself squinting my eyes to see properly. Was there someone stealing from us? I thought to myself.Our family, The Millers, was prominent in the hospitality industry. We owned chains of famous hotels, restaurants, resorts and recreational center

"All done." The stylist said and I admired my hair and slightly caked up face."Let me get your gown." She went into my walk-in closet while I just admired myself in the mirror. It had been a while since I had actually looked at myself and found myself gorgeous.She helped me into the gown and I hadn't fully taken in the beauty of the dress. It was made of a delicate white fabric that flowed and moved with every step. The neckline was simple and elegant, with a modest V-shape. The sleeves were long and billowy, adding a romantic touch to the dress. The length of the dress slightly grazed the floor."You look gorgeous ma'am." My stylist gushed with sincerity. I thanked her and I looked at the time. It was a few minutes to 8pm and the party was starting at exactly 8. So I quickly grabbed my gold clutch bag and the gift I purchased for Lorena and Darren. I hurried out the room with the stylist adjusting my gown following behind me."Finally." Andrew let out a breath and suddenly covered

My eyes were droopy, reminding me of the time I took too much cough syrup. It was a bit chilly in this place and I was seated on a chair but it was definitely not my office chair nor any of the chairs at home, as the chair felt cold and it was like sitting on a flat metal surface. I tried using my hands to rub my forehead, but I couldn't move my hands. It was then I forced my eyes open and instantly realized I wasn't in my house nor my office.Fear and confusion washed over me, as my eyes landed on absolutely nothing. It was completely dark in here and the only light was a small bulb which only managed to shine towards an empty office seat before me. I could see nothing else.Am I dreaming? Where am I?

But I blinked it away. Whoever was doing this to me would never get the upper hand in all of these. Never! “What's wrong? What did the person say?” Nathaniel asked again, pulling me towards him gently and I sighed.“I don't even know who it was! But what I do know for sure is that it was the person behind all these murders because not only was the person laughing like a maniac and a complete fool, I was also able to make out the words from what the person said, as he or she was speaking in a whisper.

I was amazed to see that Lydia had already bathed them and even fed them.

I'm not even going to begin to discuss how amazing she is as my woman.I left the twins with a smile on my face as I saw they were comfortable and just relaxing, kicking their feets.
