Jason's POVI really couldn't bring myself to tell Violet about the whole thing until I'd found concrete evidence and how to protect her. I didn't want her to have fear that someone was after her life.We all sat down discussing the way forward. At the point everyone didn't know what to do, I had never had to have such a challenging situation before. We were all in the middle of a dilemma not knowing where to turn to. Only my mother and Clara weren't seated. We left them with Violet to make sure she was alright. Even Donald wouldn't leave. He was happy to help in this whole thing.“We have to confirm if Violet is truly an Hughes, ” grandpa said. I looked at everyone gathered, we were a group of six. We had all decided to come together to tackle this issue as it was getting harder than we thought. Violet 's father would have been our path but he was killed.“Are you doubting the current evidence? ” Charles asked.I was also thinking of asking the same thing. There was enough evid
Jason's POV I didn't know why I was scared but I was. I took the book, wrapped it in a paper bag because I didn't want to accidentally meet Violet on the way. I went back to the room the remaining five were. “Here's the diary that might hold all our answers," I said to them. We all decided that it was right for Charles to read it. After all it was his father we wanted to talk about. I noticed the pain in Charles' eyes, this was the main reason we had to find whoever did this. We all gathered at the tables Charles skimmed through the pages before searching for the exact date Violet ’s mom said she was brought. After a while, Charles' face turned sour and he immediately passed the book to me. “I can't read it,” he let out painfully. I understood what he was going through and collected the book from him. I looked at the page he opened and I was shocked at what I saw. I didn't know if Charles saw it because he shouldn't see it and he would be still. I looked at everyon
Summer’s POV I twirled the glass cup in my hands worriedly. Staring at the wall In front of me, I could remember our agreement years ago. I was a child but it was still fresh in my head. Even if I had wanted to forget it, Aunt Kaitlyn and her husband won't stop reminding me of who I am. That agreement had changed my life, I had not expected it and it was a life changer for me. I thank my stars everyday for meeting someone like her. It was not easy in the slum. I woke up everyday with no food or shelter. I had to fend for myself either by stealing or doing anything illegal. The orphanage that I was put in cared little for us. But was it their fault? It was the fault of our parents who either died when they weren't supposed to or left us to the cruel hands of the world. At first when I left the orphanage, I had thought I found wealthy parents and I was happy until I was told that I was going to become another person.
Summer’s Pov But at the same time, these people helped me, they saved me from living in penury and I don't think repaying them like this would be fair. I was in the middle of a dilemma.Sighing loudly, I decided it was time for me to clear my head. Picking up my car keys, I headed to the slum. I still had friends there and I just needed to speak to someone who could understand my plight. Since I left the slums, I have not had a single contact with anyone. I was grown so none of them could recognize me. I came here looking for someone who could help me.Walking to the pub, I felt awkward. I was already in money and this place looked so disgusting. I just wanted to get what I wanted and leave.“Mabel!” I heard a familiar voice. I stiffened because I had thought no one would recognize me. I turned slowly to see who called me. Looking at the person standing before me, she looked very familiar.She was in an old big dress and her small face was lo
PROLOGUE"Violet, go and serve room 509 the refreshment they ordered!" A male voice barked out an order in anger." Yes, Manager Poo- Porter!" A young vibrant girl said, rolling her eyes unknown to the chubby man who just ordered her.The girl's eyes traced the chubby manager until he left, then she sighed heavily. She hated going to those rooms especially at this hour of the night. But she has no choice, she needed to make money. " Val, you just have to do it for this month so you can pay for your final year tuition fee. Don't you want to be the paediatrician you always wanted?" " Of course I need to take care of those cuties!"Violet's emerald eyes rolled again as she sighed once more before turning to look at the person who just spoke." I understand I need the money, Joe. What I don't understand is you coming here to work too," she asked, looking at the young man.Joe was her best friend she met while studying. They had been together and he knows how she was struggling to meet u
Violet PovI needed to rest! Can't they just understand that doctors are humans too? We don't have super powers! Shutting my eyes, I ran my hand through my golden wavy hair which I had to tie in a ponytail before putting on my surgical cap. I had discarded my operation gown and cap so I could take a quick nap before going to the canteen to grab a bite.I didn't sleep well last night either… quite unfortunate, right? But that was me, Doctor Violet Myers! I brought out my purse to check the money left in it. Sighing, I took a peep at the wallet and I knew I was done for. I was definitely going to starve after today.That was the last money left with me and I was thinking if I should ask for an advance so I won't go broke all through the month? Would my boss be so gracious? "So much for this month! I wonder if Charles had found a job already," I murmured to myself, thinking about my lazy ass brother. As I was thinking of what to do, someone barged into my office, looking anxious. Look
Sighing for the upteenth time, I followed the nurse to the ICU and true to her words, the little boy was throwing tantrums as he yelled for his mother. That was not good, it might lead to complications if he kept screaming.I pushed open the door of the ward and saw the father trying to pacify the child. All the coldness and icy aura had all melted in the presence of his son. All that was on his face was helplessness.I watched as his eyes only radiated love around the chubby angel. Just as I was thinking of what to do, the little boy raised his eyes and his emerald green orbs stared deep at me. He squinted his eyes at me and his lips were pouted in an adorable pout. He blinked his eyes and the next thing everyone heard in the ward, including me, was his tiny voice, filled with happiness."Momma!"His gaze never left mine. Was he calling me his mother? What the hell!This was such a weird situation, damnit! His eyes were boring through mine and those lips were wrapped up in a pout.
Jason PovI was grateful to her, seriously but I hated nosy people. Why can't she just mind her business? I was the one in pain not her and I don't need anyone's pity!I was happy when she told me Vince was out of danger. I so much wanted to see him. I walked to the ICU and saw my son lying down with a bandage on his head. He only have injury on his head.A cut, deep enough to touch his brain. So the doctor said and the chances were low but he made it out alive.What I didn't expect was that he was going to wake up and claim another woman as his mother! Why her? He had never seen her before. Vince had never called anyone his mother right from the moment he was born.He had never asked nor call anyone by that title… not even Rachel, my ex-fiance. If he should call anyone that, it should be Rachel! That's one of the reasons I was adamant that he should be discharged immediately! I quickly called Doctor Bennett over to check on him. If he could be discharged and he told me the exact thin
