“I told you not to give her an overdose of the drugs. It could run her mad. I want to take my revenge on them but I want to do it in the right way. I don't want to be like them,” Elizabeth said in anger.“I specially told the maid the amount she should give her. Maybe she gave her more than the amount I instructed. I remember the maid telling me that she has a score to settle with Anita. She was the reason she lost her mother. I don't know how her mother's death links to Anita but I think she wanted to get her revenge on Anita. That was one of the reasons she agreed to help us.” Stephen explained.“Putting Anita in prison is enough punishment for her. The maid shouldn't have gone far. I want her to pay for her sins with her mental health intact. I want her to know the reason why she was sentenced to prison and she will have to suffer there forever.”“Calm down Elizabeth. She's paying for her sins, and that's what matters.”After that night Anita created a scene in the Presley mansion,
Richard couldn't sleep throughout last night. He was so worried about Elizabeth. He kept calling her number but she wasn't picking up her calls. At some point her phone was switched off. That made him more worried as he tried to report her missing but the old Mr. Presley stopped him. They can only report her missing after twenty four hours. He told him to calm down. Maybe something happened and she wasn't able to come back. He believes that she is fine. If she does not come back the next morning, they will have to report her as missing. Of course Richard was still restless. He couldn't sleep. He called his personal investigator to start looking for her. Once it was morning, he dressed up to go to the police station to file a missing report. He can't wait any longer. Just as he was about to leave the mansion, the gigantic door at the entrance of the mansion swung open as Elizabeth walked in like a queen walking down the path of her kingdom.She dressed up so lavishly, looking extreme
“Doctor please save my baby.” Annabelle cried in pain. Her lower abdomen hurt, and the excruciating pain was tearing her apart. “I'm sorry, Mrs. Presley, we can't carry on with the operation without the blood transfusion,” the doctor politely explained for the umpteenth time. “Just start with the operation. Richard will be here very soon. He can't leave his child to die,” Annabelle whispered in pain. She felt as if her whole body was on fire. She just wants this pain to go away. She knew that Richard didn't love her nor care about her, but he couldn't be heartless enough to leave his child to die. He promised to give his blood to her in order to save their child. She has known Richard for three years, and he always keeps to his promise. He can't change now, not in this crucial moment. “The operation was scheduled around 7am. It is past eight already. We tried contacting Mr. Presley, but we couldn't reach him, I'm afraid he might not come,” the doctor said. “No, he will come. He
Annabelle slowly opened her eyes, her head hurts a lot. She groaned as she tried sitting up but couldn't. Her whole body aches, especially her lower abdomen. It was as if all the pain in her body was centered there. Her hand moved to her stomach and something hit her mind….. her child. Her belly is flat, nothing is in there…. Where is her baby?It was like magic…. The way all the pains in her body disappeared as she jumped from the bed and removed the drip. She staggered as she looked around the room, searching for her baby. A nurse walked in and screamed in worry. “Mrs. Presley, you can't move from your bed. You haven't fully recovered.” The nurse quickly rushed towards her and tried to lead her to the bed but she jerked away from her grip. “Where is my baby, I can't find her.” Her voice was shallow, showing that her body was still weak and needed a good rest. “You need to calm down first Mrs. Presley. This is for your health.” The nurse was still adamant to safely take her to th
When Annabelle woke up, she saw Evelyn Presley, her mother in-law and a slender beautiful lady. Annabelle was disappointed that she was still alive. She thought she'd died. There was nothing to live for, why didn't they let her die. Seeing Evelyn doesn't make things better. This woman has always hated her and made her life a living hell. Well, not just her but every member of the Presley family. They all treat her as a slave instead of a daughter-in-law. They constantly remind her that she's an orphan and no matter how badly they treat her, there is nothing she can do. She has no one to turn to. Annabelle has no one…. No parents, no relatives. The only family she has doesn't love her. And the only man that she has ever loved hates her. Everyone thought she was living like a queen in the Presley family. No one knew she had been living in hell. The old Mr. Presley, the only member of the Presley family who has always loved Annabelle and always stood up for her, has been in a coma fo
Five years later….Richard Presley sat in his office with a photo frame he'd vowed not to ever look at, but his heart always betrayed him. It's been five years already, but he has still not gotten over her. He'd supposed to hate her for what she did. He hates himself for still thinking about her after all these years. He was snapped out of his thoughts as he heard some unusual noise outside his spacious office. In the next few seconds, the door was forcefully opened as his secretary and Miss Anita Hernandez matched into the office. His secretary, Nancy, was trying to stop Anita, but the billionaire heiress was too stubborn. “I'm sorry, Mr. Presley, I tried stopping her,” Nancy quickly explained. She wouldn't let her boss think that she didn't do her job well. Richard had earlier instructed her that she shouldn't let anyone in. He needed some private time. Nancy tried acting on the instruction, but Anita was not someone she could easily handle.“It's okay, Nancy, you can leave,” Rich
Richard was so angry that he couldn't concentrate at work. He went to his favorite club, a place he often goes at night to get drunk and stop thinking about Annabelle for a second. Though the alcohol helps sometimes, it's just for the night. Richard has only one friend, Noah, and he is not in the city at the moment. Noah is his drinking mate, and he misses him. Though Noah can be a pain in the ass sometimes, he is still the only one who understands Richard the most and tolerates his stubborn and unbearable behavior. Noah was also the one that made him realize his love for Annabelle, though his pride wouldn't let him show the love to her. He wanted to believe that Annabelle behaved the way she did because of the way he treated her, but he definitely treated her well the last few months of their marriage, especially when she was pregnant. Though he couldn't express his love directly, he still made her feel it one way or the other. He didn't realize how much he loved her until he lost
Richard slowly opened his eyes. His head hurts a lot. He held it with his hand as he tried to sit up from the bed. He tried recounting what had happened but his mind was blank. He looked around the room and wasn't familiar with it. Where is he? He tried to search his mind to know how he got here, but his head hurts a lot. “You are awake?” He was startled with the voice he heard from behind. The voice is melodious and alluring. He quickly turned and his eyes met with a beautiful lady with milky pale skin. She has a white towel wrapped around her chest. The towel barely covered her upper thigh, revealing her sexy long legs. The lady looks damn beautiful with her killer curvy stature. Richard didn't know when he got lost staring at the beauty in front of him until her voice snapped him out. “You seem hungry for me, Mr. Presley.” Richard quickly takes his eyes away and tries to swallow the embarrassment. He is someone that hardly shows his feelings. He put on his stoic expression a

Elizabeth doesn't know how Stephen managed to convince Jonathan, the man that killed Rosalyn to testify against Evelyn and expose all her secrets and show the evidence for it. Or how he was able to find the nurse. She asked him but he refused to tell her, and said she wouldn't want to know. She trusts him so she didn't ask further.If not for Jonathan, the thug, it would have been a little bit hard to win the case against Evelyn. They were also the one that made Natasha testify against Evelyn. Elizabeth knew that the highest revenge she could serve Evelyn is turning the people she loves against her.What Evelyn doesn't know is that Natasha is addicted to drugs. Stephen found out about it and cut off her drug supplier. She nearly went mad because of it. Being denied drugs for three days, she could do anything to have one. Stephen told her to testify against Evelyn. Of course she doesn't want to, but her addiction to drugs forced her to do so. Stephen promised to give her drugs once sh
“You are hereby sentenced to life imprisonment. The court is dismissed." That was the last sentence the judge said as everyone stood up. Evelyn didn't move. She felt her whole world turning round. She wasn't affected by the sentence but because of the witnesses. She thought that the only evidence Elizabeth had was the voice recorder. She has again underestimated her. She doesn't know how Elizabeth managed to find the nurse that helped Rosalyn give birth twenty eight years ago or how was able to find the bastard she paid to kill Rosalyn and Lena or how she managed to convince him to testify against her. The bastard kept strong evidence that the court couldn't deny. There is so much evidence that proved her crime, including the DNA test result. Also there is evidence that proves that she took the company's money and sent it to Jonathan, the thug she paid to kill Rosalyn and Lena. Despite everything, she was not broken until her sister came in as a witness. The smirk she saw on Eliza
Today is Evelyn's hearing. Richard knows that going to the court will hurt him the most, but he wants to be there. Funnily enough he was hoping that Evelyn will be acquitted of the charges, but that won't be possible because Lena had shown him enough evidence which proves that Evelyn is certainly guilty. To prove her innocence in the court means that the judgement did not judge well. He's still struggling to adjust to the new situation. It was today that Evelyn learned of what happened to her hotel. She was greatly mad and furious. She knows that there is no other person that could take her hotel and file charges of extortion against her if not Elizabeth. She swears that she's going to kill that girl, she will destroy her!When she was escorted into the courtroom, her eyes went toward Elizabeth who held a sarcastic smirk. ‘You can enjoy the victory while it lasts, Annabelle, because I promise to come for you. I will destroy you,’ she said in her mind as she glared daggers at Elizabet
When Richard ran away, Elizabeth wanted to follow him but Evelyn's voice stopped her. “Annabelle.” She was a bit shocked even though she had already assumed that Evelyn knew her real identity.Evelyn chuckled dryly. “So I'm right. Seeing how tense you look right now, it shows that you are definitely annabelle.”Elizabeth turned and faced her once more. “I would have complimented you on being so clever, mum, but I can't. It took you so long to realize it, that shows you are not as clever as you claim to be.”“You are right. I can't believe you were so good at this. How did you get your face? Did you steal it from Elizabeth? And where is she, the real Elizabeth?”“You know, you shouldn't be asking too many questions, mum. You should be thinking of a way to save your ass which I know definitely you won't be able to save.”“Don't be so sure of yourself, Annabelle. You can't take me down no matter how hard you try,” Evelyn said with a dangerous gaze. Elizabeth knows that she is not cappin
“Richie, are you sure that you want to meet your mum?” Elizabeth asked for the second time as their car stopped in front of the prison main gate. “Yes.” Richard replied as he took a deep breath. He looks nervous and his heart has not stopped beating fast since their journey to this place. “I have questions to ask her. I want to know why she did what she did. It's going to be hard for me to face her again after the things I know about her now. That's why I brought you along with me. You are my strength, do you know that?” he looked her straight in the eyes. She smiled faintly as she nodded.They both stepped down from the car while Richard held her hand tight as they walked into the prison building. They requested to see Evelyn and they were granted permission after feeling the request form and making sure that Evelyn also wants to see them.In a few minutes they were sitting opposite Evelyn. Richard held Elizabeth's hand tight. He can't believe that she is his zone of comfort now. Th
After meeting Stephen, Elizabeth returned home. It was a good thing that Richard was still asleep. Of course he should be. He hasn't slept since yesterday and must have felt exhausted. She sat beside him on the bed as she gently removed the strand of hair on his face. He looks so innocent and handsome when he is sleeping. She doesn't know what is going on with her heart, but whatever it is she won't give it a chance. Stephen is right, she must focus on their mission. She can't forget what Richard did to her.She is not going too far. She is only paying them for the pain she went through. How can she ever forget what they did to her if she doesn't make them feel the same pain she felt. After the old Mr. Presley had an accident and went into a coma, the Presley's made her go through hell. They abuse her physically, emotionally and mentally. They left her under the rain all night because she didn't make dinner on time. And her so-called husband watched them do it. He didn't do anything
“What? Wasn't Evelyn the one that planned your accident.”“Even though Evelyn was a devil and a monster, she didn't want me dead back then. She only wants me out of Richard's life by tarnishing my image. She made that plan with Anita, but Anita carried out another plan behind her back. Anita was scared that I would return and try to prove myself right, and expose what they did, so she planned the accident by cutting off the brake of the car. I think the driver did not know of the plan. She didn't mind if we both died. But the driver was heartless to leave me there to die. It was a good thing he paid for what he did.” Elizabeth carefully explained.“How did you find out?”“She said it when I was in a coma. She didn't know I could hear her. The first recovery I had when I was in coma was hearing voices but no one knew about it. I also started feeling people's touch. She was also the one that planned the accident two months ago. When I didn't die from the accident, she tried to kill me i
