Piper’s POV“Ah, Piper. Please have a seat. I’ll put on my clothes first. Wait a minute,” he said as he grabbed a shirt and trousers from the bed, then he hurried into the bathroom. I didn’t dare to look at him, so all I did while waiting for him to finish getting dressed was to keep my head down and my eyes on the floor. He made my face flush red and my heart beat faster. He’s such a tease!“Piper, why are you being so quiet? Oh, Jessie wants to come with you to watch the competition at your son’s school. Is that okay?” he asked from inside the bathroom. Hearing him ask me something, I spontaneously looked up and stared at the bathroom door, which wasn’t closed. How could that be? Did he do it on purpose? But why would he do that?“It’s not that I mind if Jessie comes with me, it’s just that,” I replied. It was just that her arrival would cause a stir and there would be a lot of questions asked of me. I wasn’t ready because I still had gotten no information. However, I couldn’t r
Piper’s POVI turned around and saw Mom walking along with Jensen. Maybe that was a time for me to explain everything to them. I never expected things to go so fast. Jessie also turned around while holding my hand and looked at Jensen. Then she looked at me with a questioning and confused look. “H-he,” she said. “Piper, him,” she said a second time. I turned off my phone and waited for Mom to walk towards me. From a distance, I saw Mom and Jensen’s faces change. They must be confused and wondering. Even though I was ready to explain, my heart was still beating quite fast. “Piper, what’s going on? Who is she? Why her?” Mom asked as she looked at Jessie with a probing gaze. “Mom, Jensen, and Jessie, I’ll explain things to you guys after the competition is over. Now let’s go inside and when it’s all over, I’ll take you somewhere and you’ll hear all the answers. Now let’s go inside,” I said as I invited them inside. We heard the voice of the host asking the participants and the audi
Jensen’s POV“What’s your mom’s name?” I asked curiously. Jessie seemed innocent to me. A person who has an innocent character tells the truth. That’s what I knew.“Megan. But, since we met, I’ve been thinking that maybe Megan isn’t my biological mom. I’m so confused. What do you think I should do?” she asked. She looked like a confused person. Women are easily confused.“Just answer all my questions first, then I’ll tell you the way out. You don’t need to be confused. I also want to know the truth,” I replied, trying to calm her down.“Oh well. Please ask what you want to know,” she said. She was cute and obedient. I liked her.“Megan is my mom’s cousin. So, does she treat you well? Think well,” I asked.She paused and seemed to think hard. Then she shook her head. I let out a quick breath. “I guessed it. Does she behave well when you’re around your dad?”She nodded twice.“I guessed it. So, are your dad and Megan married?” I asked.“Shouldn’t you call her Aunt Megan?” she asked, bit
Jensen’s POV“Come on, hurry!” Jessie said. I had to admit she walked pretty fast despite her short legs and shorter body than me.“Calm down. Why are you in such a hurry?” I asked, as I furrowed my eyebrows.“If it takes too long to come out, I’m afraid Dad will look for me.”“By the way, did you tell Ken to keep this a secret from your dad or anyone else?” I asked as I walked beside her.“I did. Before picking you up, I explained everything to him. Take it easy,” she replied.“What is the name of your dad’s friend who you said is a famous doctor?” I asked.“Doctor Austin. He’s very handsome. I’ll tell you a secret. I like him and I hope when I grow up, I can find a boyfriend like him,” she said with a blush on her face and a smile on her lips.I flicked her forehead. “What you should pay attention to is studying and being the brightest student in your class. You’re thinking about adult things that you shouldn’t be thinking about. Study well or else it’s a waste of my mom teaching you
Jay’s POVLater that night, Ken took me to a mini-market in front of a hotel. He invited me in.“Sir, let’s go inside,” he asked.“What for? Didn’t you say you wanted to show me something?” I asked, confused.“Take it easy. This is all part of the process I’ve set up. Don’t forget to wear sunglasses and a hat so we won’t be recognized. Let’s go out and buy something. Trust me,” he replied.To fulfill the curiosity that had been peaking since this afternoon, I decided not to argue with or give him many more questions. I grabbed my sunglasses and hat from the back seat, then got out of the car and into the mini-market, following Ken.It turned out he was walking down an aisle where shelves of instant noodles and snacks were lined up.“Sir, let’s eat noodles and some snacks and drink cola while watching a show,” he said.“What flavor noodles would you like?” he asked with a smile.“Spicy noodles. Are you sure about all this?” I asked.“Trust me, sir. After this, you’ll thank me,” he repl
Jay’s POV“Sir, look what they’re doing in the car,” Ken said.I saw a good show that I could use as an excuse to get Megan out of our lives forever. I’ve held onto some of the truth about her and once I know all the truth, I would keep her out of my children’s lives and Piper’s and I wouldn’t let her hurt them.Never in my wildest dreams I would have thought that Megan would do such a terrible thing to her cousin. There must be a reason for all of this. If it was about money, wouldn’t Helen have divided her inheritance equally between her two children? Nick said that Piper’s dad passed away a few years ago, so there’s no way Helen would give Piper and her mom a bigger inheritance while John Smith helped Helen run the company.Or maybe John knew Helen was planning to leave most of her inheritance to Piper. That’s why Megan hurt Piper to get her and her mother kicked out of Helen’s mansion. If that’s the real reason behind all this chaos, Helen must have her reasons for favoring Piper.
Jay’s Lee POVI got out of the car and said goodbye to Ken.“Call me if you need anything. Oh, here’s some money for you. Buy whatever you like,” I said as I gave Ken some money.“Ok, I’ll wait for you in the lobby. Have fun, don’t think about me,” Ken said as he drove the car to the parking lot.Now I was in the elevator. I leaned against the wall as I continued to calm myself down. Breathing in and out regularly. I had to admit I was nervous because this was the first time I was going to see my son and Piper on a cold and rainy night.I knew Piper lived on the seventh floor. But I didn’t know her unit number. Shit! My original plan was to surprise her with a surprise visit. But now that plan had to be canceled because I’d forgotten her apartment unit number. Reluctantly, I sent her a message.That night my face was full of smiles. It didn’t take long for me to receive a message back from Piper. Unit 707. After the elevator doors opened, I walked straight to the hallway on the right.
Jay Lee’s POVI stood up and approached him. He remained standing where he was, unmoving. His blue eyes stared at me. It was the first time I saw and met the boy who was separated from me for six years. And for all that time, I didn’t know his whereabouts and identity.If he knew the truth, would he be willing to accept my explanation and existence?“Your name is Jensen, right?” I asked.“Yes, who are you?” he asked. His voice was a soft boy’s voice. He was taller than Jessie. And since they were twins, of course, their faces were similar. His eyes were the same blue color as mine, his hair was light brown, the same color as Piper’s hair.“Oh, umm, my name is Jay Lee Adams. I’m your mom’s boss. Nice to meet you,” I replied as I shook his hand.“So, you’re Jessie’s dad,” he said.“Yes. You must have met her. Congratulations on your victory.”Oh, I’d forgotten that they’d met earlier that morning. But I wasn’t ready to explain anything. What should I do?“Thank you. Jessie has a face si
Megan’s POVMoments later, I heard many footsteps approaching me and a few guards helped me up and then they asked me to sit in the wheelchair. I saw that the pants I was wearing were wet and red with blood. A guard yelled and ordered two of my cellmates to prepare clean clothes for me. Things were quite chaotic. I just sat quietly in the wheelchair while enduring the pain. I wanted to scream and call my mom, but it was impossible. She was in a distinct part of the prison from me. I could only endure the pain alone. I couldn’t bear this pain any longer. After my cellmate gave a plastic bag containing clothes to a guard, they hurriedly took me away from there. They took me to a special clinic for prisoners. The city government had deliberately set up special clinics in each prison that were well-equipped so that prisoners didn’t have to be taken to a big hospital as much as possible. My wheelchair was pushed quickly. Blood continued to flow from my vagina. I stroked my stomach and mu
Piper’s POV“At one point, I regretted all the evil deeds I had done in the past and I felt that my life was not at peace. After thinking for a while and talking to someone, I came here and take responsibility. I’m sure everyone wouldn’t want to be in prison or spend their whole life in prison, but serving time in prison means I’m making amends to everyone I’ve hurt bit by bit,” Megan replied as she looked down at her cuffed hands. I saw clear liquid soaking into her bare face without makeup. Suddenly, Megan’s face turned towards the large glass where we stood and stared at us. The large glass separated the investigation room from the secret room. She smiled and said, “Piper, are you there? Sorry. All I can say to you is sorry. I wish you a happy ever after.”I was stunned. Jay hugged me from the side and I sobbed. Why did it have to end like this? Megan and I spent a lot of time together when we were kids. People said we were like twins. However, who would have thought that things w
Jay Lee’s POV As I was about to leave the workroom, my cell phone suddenly rang. Ah, it was an incoming call from Tom. If Tom was calling me in the middle of the night like this, he must have a special reason. “Yes, Tom. What’s up?” I answered. “Jay, I’m sorry to call you in the middle of the night like this, and I’m sorry to disturb your rest. I have some good news,” he replied. His voice sounded cheerful. “It’s okay. I was just about to go to bed. What’s the good news about?” I asked curiously. “Megan came here and confessed to everything she did. After searching for so long, she finally came in person and confessed everything. Now she’s in the investigation room with some officers. While her male friend waits in the waiting room,” Tom replied. “Re-really? Didn’t I hear wrong?” I asked for confirmation. “No, you didn’t. Come here tomorrow morning. Oh, and when will your wife give birth?” Tom asked. “Next month. That’s why I want this case to end soon so that Piper can give bi
Megan’s POVIt was snowing heavily in December while bringing strong winds and cold air. I spent every day just staying in my room and covering my body with thick blankets. Dean often made hot tea for me and cooked soup for us to eat every day. Fifteen days had passed since I arrived at that place. One month left, it was time for me to give birth. That night I intended to speak my heart out and tell Dean about my past. And for those fifteen days, we did everything together until I realized something had happened between the two of us. I realized Dean had fallen in love with me. He treated me more gently and provided everything I needed, including a crib and all the supplies. He also cuddled me when we slept together at night. However, there was one unique thing: when he wanted sex, he would ask me first. If I was willing, then we would do just that. However, if I wasn’t willing, he wouldn’t insist and he would masturbate alone in the bathroom. And he never had sex twice every time
Megan’s POVMy eyes continued to leak clear liquid. My chest felt tight and my mind kept replaying the events of the past and showing all the evil deeds I had done to those closest to me, including Piper, Uncle Martin, and Doctor Kevin. What kind of woman am I? I thought I deserved the nickname of a heartless demoness. Do I still have a future? Do I deserve to live after all the terrible things I’ve done? Even God might turn His face away because I’m a sinner. What was I supposed to do? Suddenly, I heard the door opening, and I looked back. That man walked in and looked at me in surprise. “What’s wrong? Why are you crying? Did you finish your breakfast?” I just nodded. My voice seemed to disappear somewhere. I had to make a choice, but I was confused and didn’t know what to do. “Oh, apparently you’re hungry. Do you still want to eat? If so, I’ll make something for you. And I’ve also bought quite a lot of snacks for you,” he said as he picked up the tray and cleared the dining tabl
Megan’s POV“I felt nothing. So, don’t think too highly of me,” I said as I looked around the corner. He laughed loudly. “You’re lying. How is it possible to not feel anything yet your lips are making moans? I’m not stupid, but you’re right. I think highly, and I’m sure you’ll like me.”“Don’t get your hopes up. I hate you. You forced me in here and harassed me. I’ve told you many times that I’m not one of those women. They do work as prostitutes, but don’t,” I replied in a lofty tone of voice. “If you’re not one of them, then why did you end up here?” he asked as he got up and took something out of his desk drawer. He took out a box of condoms. Then he unwrapped one and put it on. “I’m going to use a condom so we both benefit,” he said. “You’re the lucky one while I lose. If you’re such a nice guy, you should have let me go and not kept me here,” I said, trying to change his mind. “Stop trying so hard to change my stance. What I want to do, I will do. Now it’s time for us to pl
Megan’s POVI turned around and saw a tall man with a scar like a knife cut on the right side of his face grinning and observing me from head to toe. The look in his eyes scared me, as if he was stripping me naked. “They’ve brought you here. Where are you going?”“Let go of my hand. Let me go!” I yelled as I tried to break his powerful grip. And I saw the police car had gone far away from me. I was trapped in this place. The women who had been with me entered a warehouse. “Let go of your hand! You’re hurting me,” I yelled for the second time. I looked into his eyes, but he didn’t budge, and a few seconds later, he smiled. “Come with me. I guarantee you’ll like it.”“I’m not coming with you!” I yelled. “Please. Someone help me,” I yelled. Then he forcefully pulled my hand to walk with him somewhere. The more I rebelled, the more violent he became. Moments later, a middle-aged woman wearing thick makeup came out of the entrance of a warehouse. I thought the place looked like a large
Zac’s POVI felt my world collapse in an instant as my body fell to the floor. Warm red liquid flowed from several parts of my body that were perforated by bullets, and the red liquid hit my hands.My body felt painful and hot. My consciousness was getting less. I leaned my body partially against the wall. With a gasp, I looked around the room while smiling and imagining the old days when all my men and I were partying. We joked around while talking about our past, when we were still fighting together to complete every mission and received pay ranging from small amounts to huge amounts. We were just a group of orphans from a village. We grew up together and had the same dream of a better and happier life, even though our families had abandoned us as babies. Since then, we have helped each other and worked together. Until one day, the opportunity to run this business came to me and I recruited them. Within a few years, we had everything we wanted. It wasn’t until the bullet pierced
Zac’s POV“Megan,” I called. She turned her head. Her beautiful face looked perfect in the sunlight. Even though I don’t have feelings for her, I think she’s a woman like no other.We have the same character and different ambitions as others. She deserves to be the mother of my children. Now it was time for us to part ways. No matter what, she must survive and leave this place. While I will fight to the last breath. “Zac,” she replied. I walked closer to her and pulled her body closer to me. I hugged her tightly and kissed her head several times. Her hands hugged me. I could hear her rapid breathing, a sign that she was scared. “Are you scared?” I asked. She nodded.I released the hug, touched her jaw, and looked into her eyes, which were green like sparkling jewels. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll find a way for you to get out of here. After you get out of this place, go back to your mother’s house,” I said. She gripped both my hands. While looking into my eyes, she asked, “You’re comin
