last update Last Updated: 2025-03-05 18:41:17

But what about our baby?

Will I be doing myself good by leaving at this moment?

Cassie will celebrate, and she’ll think she has won.

Raymond, on the other hand, will be over the moon thinking he has gotten rid of the thorn in his path, me.

“Would you?”

Jeff’s question broke me out of my reverie.

He looked as though he was expecting me to say yes to his question.

Even though I want to, there’s no way I could let Cassie and Raymond win this battle.

I chose this path, knowing fully that I might win it in the end.

I can’t just allow my evil, manipulative sister to get whatever she wants anymore.

She has already taken everything away from me, she has made my life a living hell.

Worse, she took away the last person I looked forward to interacting with again, my own father.

How then should I let Cassie win? She’ll definitely pay for all she did and is still doing to me.

“Jeff?” I called, sighing inside.

Jeff won’t be happy with what I am about to say, but I have no other choice.

    “Hello, sis.”My fingers clenched into a fist as soon as Cassie appeared. What the heck is she doing here?She is the last person I want to see. Cassie always gives me the urge to grab her neck and twist it until she stops breathing whenever we cross paths. And what on earth is she still doing in this wheelchair?She looks fine to me, Cassie must be up to something.After all, she has never done anything good in her life. “Going to see your Dad?” She let out a horrible laugh, the one that shows she's definitely up to no good. But do I even care? I really don't. I can't let Cassie ruin my mood now, I have a lot of things to discuss with my dad. Ignoring her is the best thing to do, but Cassie grabbed my hand as soon as I walked past her wheelchair. “Don't you want to listen to what I have to say?” Letting out a deep sigh, I turned to her. However, that mischievous look on her face shows that she did something there. “Your dad won't listen to whatever you have to say, Blair,

    Raymond's PovIf not for grandpa, I wouldn't have gone to that hospital to see her. I wouldn't have even taken her to the hospital a few hours ago. Why can't something bad just happen to her so she will leave?I am so fed up seeing Blair all the time and having to deal with her attitude. She's so evil and manipulative, trying to get her way with me. “If you don't bring Blair back home tonight, I will be upset with you.” Those are grandpa's words when he came into my room an hour ago. I don't love Blair, it is Cassie I love,But Blair is standing in the way. I have to bring an end to this before it gets out of hand. “Where are you taking me?” Blair's shaky voice interrupts my thoughts. I am driving at high speed and it scares her a lot. Maybe she's thinking I'll get us into an accident to teach her a lesson.But I'm not that daft to hurt myself. If I have to do that, then she'll be the only one in the car. “One word from you, and I will throw you out of this car!” I threat

    Ever since I left Cassie's place, my mind hadn't been at rest. Cassie must be feeling sad right now.She'll think I've stopped having feelings for her, but that's not true. I still love her and I don't know why I acted that way earlier on.She really needed me; however, I turned her down and left. Well, I didn't turn her down directly, my grandpa's call saved me. When he called, I used that as an excuse to leave Cassie's presence because it seems like I was trying to do a bad thing. This is weird. She's the only woman I want in my life yet, I am afraid to do what she wants. Maybe it's because she's dealing with the pains in her legs. “Is this what I ordered you to do?”I glance at Blair who is standing behind Grandpa biting her nails nervously.She must have told Grandpa that I took her to the law firm for a divorce. Nothing will make the old man act that way if not for that. “How dare you leave your wife stranded after I instructed you to go bring her home?”I frowned at Bl

    Blair's POVWith the last strength left in me, I slouch on the sofa, sighing in relief. Raymond did this and I swear, I won't let this slide. How dare he leave me at the hospital just to go see another lady?I'm in pain and I'll make sure I make him feel that too. But can I even do it? I love him so much, I can't hurt him. Hurting him or making him mad is the same as hurting my heart too. My hand travels down my tummy and I can't help but smile as I rub it circularly. When should I inform Raymond about our baby?I badly want to do this, maybe it will bring an end to all this. However, I'm skeptical about telling him. He might not believe me, he can reject it too just the way he rejected my confession. Should I tell grandpa instead? The old man will be happy about it, and he'll protect me too. “Blair?”I turn slowly and see him coming down the stairs supporting himself with his walking stick. I manage to stand on my feet to help him down the stairs, but then I remember wha

    The eerie silence of the apartment makes it so creepy that I can't even take a nap.No one is in the apartment except me. Raymond left as early as he woke up, saying he had an important meeting in the company.Well, I was surprised when he told me that because that is unlike him.Raymond doesn't tell me where he's going, he even ignores me whenever I ask, but he told me without me asking. Could it be that my plans are starting to work already? That will be great.Since there's nothing to do, I think going to grandpa George's apartment will help me kill the boredom. I stand up from the bed, slip my legs in a slipper and drag my feet out of the room. I always feel so tired these days even though I don't do anything. That's funny. I think one doesn't have to do certain work to be tired. I'm pregnant with a baby, and Raymond has been stressing me lately.Going out of the house everyday also counts as getting stressed. I hope this ends soon because I'm getting tired already. Gran

  • Messed With The Wrong Heiress    22. She's faking it.

    CASSIE'S POVAt first, I thought Blair was faking it because I wanted to talk to her about divorcing Raymond. So, I slightly pushed the chair backward so she'll fall down. And it did work, but she ended up passing out instead. It scares me so much as she looks like someone who is lifeless. “Blair?” I call, trying to revive her, but she isn't moving. What have I done? I know that I hate her and can do anything to separate her with Raymond, but killing her isn't part of my plans. She can't die now, I still have a lot of things in store that I haven't done to her. “Blair!” Jeff's scream makes me leapt to my feet. “What did you do to her?” He throws the cups of ice cream away and lifts Blair up from the ground. “If anything happens to her, I'm going to deal with you, evil sister!” He yelled at me and ran out carrying Blair in his arms. He can't do anything to me, and I am not remorseful at all. If she dies then that's a win win for me. No one will come in between Ray and I

    I have no idea how long I passed out, but looking through the window, it's already dark outside. Where's Jeff?My eyes darted to the giving set running from my hand to the drip stand. Wow! 1 litre of the fluid already in my body?Is it that serious?Wait, hope nothing happens to my baby. I can't feel any pain even when I touch my abdomen. I think my baby is fine. Hope the doctor didn't tell Jeff anything about my pregnancy? Oh no, he can't do that. I'm not ready to tell anyone yet. I sit upright, supporting my back with the headboard. Wondering where Jeff could have gone to, the door opens and he comes in. “Thank goodness you are awake.” He sighs in relief, closing the door. “Blair, I know Cassie is evil, but I didn't know she could do such a thing.” Yea, I know and I'm not surprised. Cassie could go to any length to humiliate me in public. “The good thing is, I'm okay.” “You don't know what I am talking about, do you?” What is he talking about if not his disappointment

    The way he glared at me when I entered the room made me swallow hard. Raymond is so upset and that answers my questions. He's jealous.Jealous that I was with Jeff throughout the day. Doesn't he know that I only spent some minutes with Jeff, and the rest of the hours at the hospital?It looks like Cassie didn't tell him about the pregnancy.Why didn't she tell him?Could she have done that because she has plans rolled up in her sleeve?I've got to be very careful from now on. I need to pay attention to Cassie more because there's nothing she can't do to me. She can't just let this slide away even though she didn't inform Raymond. Cassie will find a way to get rid of my baby. Oh God, I am so careless. I shouldn't have left the house from the unset.If only I hesitated, but I was so eager to leave because of those maniacs. The least we could have done was exchanged words with each other. Now, I got myself out there, fainted, and Cassie found out my secret. “What is it between

    Oh great!This meeting won't end well, either.Look at their faces, none of them are even happy to see me. And look, they are all above thirty." And who is this?” One of them asked as soon as we entered the hall. I glanced at the P.A., Panicking more than Alicia."She is the new president…"“Come again?" They all burst into laughter at the same time. I feel so embarrassed right now, and I wish the ground could swallow me. What sort of a thing is this?“She's too young?"This nonsense again!I hate it when they say I am too young. How could they?I may be young, but I can do what some of them can't even do. “Also, she made us all come here yesterday without showing up. Who does that? I hate working with amateurs."I've had enough of this, it's time to step up and show them I am the president and not them. Maybe a little threat could work. “Am I too young? Funny."They all went silent. The hall became so quiet as if no one was present there. Seeing how they were all staring

    Today, Ray left the house so early, saying he had an important meeting to attend to in the company. He wasn't so happy that he was going to leave the house today; he wanted to stay with me the whole day, just like yesterday. If only he knew what was in my mind, maybe he would have canceled the meeting. My prayers have been answered, I can now leave the house to my own company in peace. I just wish Raymond could understand for once, and allow me to go to the company just as he goes to his without any worries. But no, his reason is still the same. “Ma'am? He has arrived."That's my P. A., I told him to come pick me up because I won't leave the house with any of the cars. Maybe Raymond would decide to come home when I'm gone, and if he finds any of the cars missing, he'll know I left the house. But if none of the cars are missing, then he would think I am in Grandpa George's apartment, or just taking a stroll around the house. “Where is he? Hope he didn't drive inside the house?

    Raymond was pacing in front of the apartment when I stepped inside the gate. I quietly tiptoed and hid behind some flowers since he wasn't looking at the gate. What on earth is he doing here now?Has Alicia burst the bubble and he's pacing around, waiting for me to return?Oh, come on!That wasn't what I told Alicia to do.She might have made a mistake because of her nervousness, and then Raymond found out it wasn't me who was lying on the bed. How could she do this to me?Now, I won't be the one in trouble, Jeff is. Raymond will haunt Jeff down and throw him in jail. What can I do to stop him?Absolutely nothing. He won't even listen to me because he had warned me before.Still trying to figure out what to do, a maid from Grandpa George's apartment came to Raymond and they hurried away together. I watched him enter Grandpa's apartment and sighed in relief. Now I can go inside the apartment without him seeing me. As fast as I could, I went inside the apartment, hurried up the

I wanted to turn away and run from there, but I heard Jeff's voice.“I can't do that, Blair hasn't done anything to me." Great, Jeff isn't like her. “She is a good person, Cassie. Do not let the hatred you have for Blair to blind you. You will regret this later if you don't stop doing this stuff."“Who cares?" She let out a loud laugh. “You know what? I think you should leave now!"“Are you sending me out of your house?" “Yes, Cassie, you aren't welcome here; you are evil." When I heard footsteps approaching the door, I hid behind the flowers, waiting for Cassie to leave. “If you don't do as I told you, you are going to lose Blai

He saved my life, and the least I could do was go see him to make him happy. Raymond is controlling my life, and I don't like it.When he hasn't found out I was pregnant, I leave the house whenever I want and he doesn't stop me. “Alicia?"I went to Alicia's room to plan with her because she's the only one I trust, and the only maid closer to me in the apartment. “Ma'am?"She stood up from her bed, adjusting her gown. “I need your help, Alicia. Jeff wants to see me."“Jeff? The guy Mr. Raymond warned you never to go see?" Her eyes widened in shock. “Ma'am please don't go. Mr. Raymond won't be happy with you. You know how much he cares about your security."Ahh, I know. But he can't keep controlling my life because I am carrying his baby. “I didn't come here for you to remind me of that, so do not talk me out of

    RAYMOND'S POVBlair is lying to me right now which is weird.She has never lied to me before, why now?Something is really fishy. Where did she go without telling me?There's no way someone could spend more than four hours in the shopping mall, let alone the hospital. Even if she went to those places yesterday, she wouldn't have spent more than four hours in both. She must have gone somewhere and she doesn't want to tell me. What is Blair planning?I'm stopping her from leaving the house alone because of her own good.Someone is after her life even though I haven't been able to find out who it is. She can't be careless while carrying my baby. She needs to be careful wherever she wants to go. “Why didn't you care to tell me? You know how much I want to see you and the baby healthy." Blair sighed, lowering her head. “I know. I just didn't want to pressure you."Pressure me?If it was really the hospital, she would have told me right before going. To burst the bubble, the docto

    BLAIR'S POVHow dare Cassie kiss Raymond in front of me.Coming to the house to confirm I am still alive isn't enough?She went ahead to do what would trigger my heart.I don't like this at all, and I am so angry that Raymond didn't do anything about it. Instead of stopping her from doing whatever she wanted to do, he stood there, rooted in a spot like a tree. He wanted that, I know.If not, he wouldn't have allowed her to do it. I think it's time to tell him who the kidnapper was. That way, he would stay away from Cassie. I don't want her to be arrested and put behind bars, I just want him to be far away from her.It hurts my feelings whenever Cassie is all intimate with him.“Ma'am?"“Not now, I'm not in a good mood." Alicia bowed her head and left the room. I won't go to that company today, I have to confront Raymond first.He has to know the kind of a person my sister is. Why do I even keep calling her my sister?

    CASSIE'S POV“What do you mean she isn't dead?" "I saw her at the shopping mall yesterday, ma'am. The one downtown.”Downtown?That's where Raymond's house is. And it was Blair he saw?I am so confused right now. As far as I know, Blair died in my place before she was dumped at the amusement park. How is that even possible?No, this can't be happening. If truly Blair is alive, then I am done for. She'll tell Raymond I was the kidnapper, and he'll make sure I am arrested. What to do now?"Should I go after her, Miss Cassie?”Go after her?" Are you nuts? You want to go after her and do what? If you are arrested, count me out of bailing you because I'll pretend I don't even know you.” What nonsense!It was his fault; he was the one who told me she was no longer breathing. And now he's telling me he saw her alive. Cassie, you are done for.I'll confirm first and see if she's alive. But who to confirm with?Should I go to Reece's mansion?What if she has already told him?No, I

    " I have no idea, Alicia. But I'll think of something. They scared me, I don't think I can face the shareholders tomorrow.” I sighed deeply, resting my head on the desk." But you'll have to do it, ma'am. Show them you are the boss and not them. You see how the P. A., was talking to them; that's what you should do, too.”Yes, that's correct. But I don't know how to do that.And it will take me days to master it. Those people are older than me, and some of them can give birth to me too.They think because I am younger than them, I can not rule them. One even said I wasn't the one who came to the company with Grandpa before he died. Could it be Cassie?Maybe they thought she would be the one to become the president since she's older than me.Age aside, I have more flesh than Cassie, and I am a little bit taller than her too. Shouldn't they at least consider the structure?SighsThis is going to give me a headache. After we were done having lunch, I decided to go home. Staying in
