Love, lies and, secrets 100. Anger
ALICEI hate them so much. I hate them with every fibre of my being and I'm going to make sure that I do everything possible to hurt them and make them pay for humiliating me and making me feel incompetent. I was currently watching Anna and Alejandro make out and I clenched my fist in anger as the feeling of betrayal and deceit suddenly overwhelmed me and made me feel like a fool. I'm pretty sure that they think that they can get away with all of this because judging by the looks on their face, they feel like they've done everything to make sure that I won't ever get my memory back so that they can be together but what they do know is that I'm going to destroy them in ways that they won't even expect and I'm also going to make sure that for every tear I shed, they shed more tears very soon. I walked away from the scene and decided to head to my bedroom so that we wouldn't notice the look on my face because I don't think that I can hide my anger for too long. What makes the situati

ALICE TO KELVIN: I can never know unless I try so don't you think that I should at least make an attempt instead of assuming it's never going to work?FROM KELVIN: What about your parents Alice? Are you going to finally tell them what is going on? Do you intend to keep doing everything on your own without them knowing what's happening?When I saw him ask that question, I paused for a while because I had a lot to think about. As much as I didn't like the fact that I was lying to my parents, I knew that I had to do this without their knowledge because they were not going to support my plans to take revenge and I didn't want them to emotionally blackmail me into forgiving Anna.TO KELVIN: I have no intentions of telling them anything because I don't want them to try to get me to forgive anyone. I can't and I won't forgive. FROM KELVIN: Hold on a second, let me call you. As soon as I read the text, his call came in and I picked it up without hesitation. "I don't know if it's appropri
Love, lies and, secrets 102. The place
ALICEI arrived at the location given to me by Allyson and I wore a hat to hide my face to an extent so that Alejandro and Anna wouldn’t notice me. I don't think I've ever done anything like this before so I was partly nervous but at the same time, I was very excited because everything was finally starting to play out the way I wanted and I couldn't wait to see how it would all end. "Finally, Alice. Took you long enough to show up," Allyson said as soon as she saw me, pulling a seat back for me to sit."Hi," a petite blonde lady greeted me with a small smile playing on her lips and it was only after she greeted me that I noticed she was seated beside Allyson. I would be lying if I said that she didn't look good because she most certainly did and she fits perfectly into the type of woman Alejandro would like, even though I'm no longer sure what type of woman he liked. "Hi," I greeted back, trying not to make it obvious that I was nervous. "You look very familiar, Miss, and I feel
Love, lies and, secrets 103. A deal
ALICE "First and foremost, how much are we talking about and do I have to start immediately after this?" she asked. "How much do you want?" I asked. A smug look formed on her face. "You can't be assured that once I set my mind on something, I always get it done no matter what it is so here's how I want to get paid. If I can able to get him to look at me and want to start up a conversation with me, then I'm going to be getting at least five thousand dollars but if I'm able to also get him to call me back and keep in contact with me, then I want to get a total of ten thousand dollars," she replied. I can't deny the fact that the amount she was asking for was quite huge and even though it wasn't a problem for me to give her that, I need to make sure that she was asking people as she looked because she sounded very confident and I wouldn't mind giving her that much money if she's able to get things done for me. "I'm going to pay you as much as you want , but you're going to have to p
Love, lies and, secrets 104. Neck turn
ALICEI didn't fail to notice that Alejandro did not stop staring at Freya even after I expected him to have stopped looking at her. I also noticed that Anna wasn't even aware of the fact that he was paying attention to someone else because she looked so nonchalant about it and I'm pretty sure that if she noticed, she would have gotten upset by now. Freya, on the other hand, also seems like she was aware of the fact that he was staring at her and she took advantage of it but also glancing at him repeatedly and the way she looked at him was attractive. I was quite impressed that she was able to keep his attention despite the fact that he was with his lover and I also felt quite excited to see how Anna would react when everything eventually goes as planned. I couldn't wait for her to know what it felt like to lose someone you think is yours to some other person and she's quite lucky that it's not even her sister that she'll lose him too. "Are you alright babe?" Anna asked Alejandro w
Love, lies and, secrets 105. Questions
ALICE "May I ask you why you're so curious to know how Alejandro and I met?" she asked, wearing a suspecting look on her face. I could tell that she was uncomfortable with talking about Alejandro with me and I understood why she was because she knew that what she was doing was wrong and she also felt like talking about him with me could trigger my memories. "I don't think I have a very strong reason," I replied with a shrug. "Let's just say that I'm curious because I'm bored and also because anybody could be interested in hearing how two lovers met and since I don't have anything else that I'm doing with my time, I just want to listen to a story about how you met him. So, will you tell me or are you going to ask me to mind my business?" I asked. I desperately wanted her to tell me the truth but I'm not expecting her to be completely honest with me because it would make it obvious that their story wasn't exactly normal but I still wanted to hear her say something because I believe
Love, lies and, secrets 106. Getting to know her
ALEJANDRO "Who are you?" I questioned the lady who showed up in front of me earlier and suddenly fell which prompted me to help her up. I noticed that after I did help her, she didn't stop looking at me and I couldn't help but wonder why she was paying attention to me. I could tell you that there was something that she wanted from me judging by how she didn't stop staring and for some reason, I was curious to know what it is that she wanted and I was also quite attracted to the fact that she kept looking me in the eye.I would be lying if I said that she wasn't attractive because she was and I could feel myself getting attracted to her just by the way she looked at me and how attractive her eyes were. She kept biting her lower lip and smiling and I had a feeling she was trying to pass a message across with her gestures. I didn't think too much of anything when I helped her up but then after I noticed that she was looking at me, I couldn’t help but stare at her as well and I found
Love, lies and, secrets 107. Getting into their heads
ALEJANDRO"Why did you take so long in the restroom babe? I was just about to go check up on you to make sure everything was okay," Anna said as soon as I arrived back at the table. I was grateful that I returned just in time because I can't even imagine what would have happened if she had seen me talking to another woman in the restroom area. I realised that Alice was still at the table but she didn't seem to be concerned by the fact that I came back because she was still busy eating her food and minding her business. I'm satisfied that she's warming up to me now because she used to be scared of me and she used to avoid me but now, she no longer does that and I'm relieved. "It's nothing too serious babe. I was actually on a call with somebody and that is what made me take too long," I answered, hoping she would just end it there and not bother to ask any further questions. "Are you sure you were on the phone call with somebody or were you talking to somebody else?" Alice sudden

Love, lies and, secrets Epilogue
TWO YEARS LATERALICEI have never for once imagined getting married to Kelvin before being in a relationship with him. He has always been my friend, someone who I cherished and was grateful to have by my side. Kelvin is that friend that came to my rescue when I didn’t expect him to. After Anna died, I took Fiona as my own and began to nurture her.She looked just like my sister. Those eyes of hers were like eyes and each time I looked into her eyes, I am reminded of Anna. I have completely forgiven Anna in my heart and I will be raising Fiona as if she is my own.Fiona is indeed mine because a child or my sister is mine too. Today is my wedding day. Funny right? Yes, it is my wedding day. Something I never expected and I’m getting married to Kelvin.

Love, lies and, secrets 131. The end is just the beginning
ALICE "I am so sorry Alice. It's all my fault," my mother cried and I had to pull her back from the hug."It's none of your fault, mother. You did nothing," I told her, wiping the tears in her eyes but she shook her head."It's my fault. I caused all of this. I should have been a better mother. I should have seen the signs and known when things were wrong. I was just being stupid letting them fool me and allowing them to act like some married couple and hurting you more than ever. I'm so sorry Alice," she spoke at length with tears in her eyes and her voice croaky.“It’s not your fault, mother. If we all begin to take blame, then we all have our faults according to Anna. The truth is, maybe this was meant to do from the start. Maybe I should have never gotten married to Al. Maybe I should have never fallen for him but then I did and that’s it. It’s all fine.”I let out a small sigh. “It was difficult for my mother. Maybe I took the punishment too seriously…”I said that in regards to
Love, lies and, secrets 130. A new start
ALICE I used to hear a saying all the time that sometimes when something feels like the end, it can sometimes just be the beginning of a new start for you and all you need to do is just be ready to embrace whatever is coming to hit you. After the emotional roller coaster that I have to go through and after reaching my goal of getting back at Anna and Alejandro for everything that they did to me, I couldn't help but feel kind of empty on the inside but I was trying my best to remain hopeful and positive because I felt like I still had a lot of things that I could end up doing. Anna ended up in a psychiatric hospital where she is being looked after and as for Alejandro, I was successfully able to divorce him and since he didn't sign a prenup with me, I was compensated with half of his properties and I still had the company in my name because I refuse to give it back to him.Alejandro has been trying to get across to me for a really long time now but I refused to grant me any sort of
Love, lies and, secrets 129. Defensive
ALICE "As for you Alejandro, you are a sick and disgusting bastard not just for lying to me but for putting me in this condition and without considering the fact that I'm here because of you, you did so many horrible things that even led you to losing so much. You are a disgusting piece of shit and I hope you rot in hell," she hissed at him, with an upset look on her face. She grabbed the nearest chair in front of her and threw it toward Alejandro and the way she was acting was so creepy and crazy at the same time. I was honestly quite amused that I was successfully able to drive her crazy and make her seem crazy but I kind of felt bad for her that she was this way when she had so much potential but anytime I remember everything that she did to me, I end up being happy about my actions and laughing at her for finding herself in this situation. "I'm going to advise you to remember the condition that you're in and get a hold of yourself because I'm definitely not in the mood to deal
Love, lies and, secrets 128. It’s mine
ALICE"I honestly don't care about whatever it is that you just said right now because as far as I'm concerned, this company is mine and there is nothing that you can say or do to take it away from me no matter how hard you try," he said in a stern and confident manner and I laughed. "Are you trying to prove to yourself that you're not a good listener or what? What other proof do you need to realise that this is no longer yours anymore because it's now in my name and the official document says it all?" I retorted, finding his confidence quite amusing. I had every intention of playing with his emotions and making him feel frustrated for every time that he made me feel less of myself and for making me feel like I wasn't good enough because of his habit of being unfaithful. Alejandro glanced at Freya. "How could you have done something like this to me even after I trusted you so much? So your only objective for approaching me was to just set up a trap for me and watch me fall into it?
Love, lies and, secrets 127. Fishy
ALEJANDROThe minute I heard Anderson mention something about what I did to Alice, I couldn't help but question if he already knew about the situation that was between Alice, Anna and myself and I couldn't help but also question what he knew and how he found out. I was starting to wonder if the relationship between Anna and I wasn't as discreet as I told you I was because even Freya mentioned something earlier and it kind of bothered me. "It is exactly what I just said and you can freely take it however you want to," he answered."The both of you hurt Alice and you expect her to want to see you both happy? Why would she? And you think the papers are forged? Do you not recognize your own signature again or you need someone to confirm that you indeed signed those papers?" he asked."You need to be more direct with whatever you're trying to say because I don't understand what you're trying to say," I demanded. I couldn't understand what he was going on concerning Alice not being happy
Love, lies and, secrets 126. The truth hurts
ANNAThe fact that Alejandro just stood there and kept listening to all the nonsense that this stupid girl was saying to me without defending me or telling her to shut her damn mouth up was very upsetting to me and I found it very disrespectful that he didn't even have the balls to just stop this. The only thing that I could think of was that he probably told her everything that happened between us because absolutely nobody knows the whole story and judging by the way she's talking, it seemed as though she knows quite a lot and Alejandro telling her everything was definitely the only way she could have known all this. I hated him for saying things about us to a total stranger that didn't even understand the basis of our relationship and I also hated her for having the audacity to say all this nonsense to my face when she doesn't even know the whole story or understand my relationship with Alejandro. "You have absolutely no right to talk to me however you please I'm going to have to
Love, lies and, secrets 125. Caught
ALEJANDROI had no intention of going to work today but I got a call from my secretary that a woman was waiting for me and I asked for her description only for the description to match Freya's. I was confused as to why she would show up in my office without informing me first because it's unusual for her to just go there without telling me and I couldn't help but wonder what she wanted by going there.Since I already told Anna that I was going to spend the day at home, I had to quickly lie to her that something came up and I had an important job to finish up so that she wouldn't find it weird that I suddenly had to leave the house. Thankfully, she didn’t ask what it was that I was going to do and I was able to leave without getting questioned unnecessarily.I called Freya on my way to the office because I needed to know why she went there with her telling me first but she simply told me to show up first and I would talk when I arrived.When I arrived at the office, I saw her standing
Love, lies and, secrets 124. It’s about to go down
ANNAFROM ALEJANDRO: Come to my office. I want to see you. I have something to discuss with you in person. I was really surprised to see this text message from Alejandro because he just left the house not too long ago and I didn't understand why he couldn't tell me what he needed to tell me while he was around. He also knows that I've been trying to avoid coming to his office because of my pregnancy. I don't want people to ask me questions on who the father of my baby is and he and I agreed that I wasn't going to show up at the office until I gave birth. I tiredly made the decision to get changed, take a bath and head to the office even though I haven't a clue why I needed to go there. I didn't feel the need to take a driver so I drove myself to his office while thinking of what he could possibly want to say to me and why he made emphasis on my presence being important. I arrived shortly and got out of the car. I made my way to the company building and thankfully, I was allowed i
