[Vivienne]I look up from the floor and find a very pregnant woman standing right in front of me.Seeing her belly, which looks like it’s carrying at least seven months of pregnancy, I feel terrible for not being more cautious.“I’m so, so sorry. I didn’t see you there.”“Well, obviously!” She rolls her eyes with exaggerated disdain, placing a hand under her belly and scowling even more. “Look at you, standing there like a clueless idiot. It’s pathetic. What exactly are you supposed to be? The new maid who can’t even manage to watch where she’s going? The kitchen staff who’s so useless they might as well not exist? Or maybe you’re just another one of those pathetic mistresses they parade around like trophies. Either way, you’re failing miserably at whatever it is you’re supposed to be doing.”I open my mouth to respond, but the woman cuts me off with a sharp glare.“Seriously, are you going to just stand there or are you going to do something useful?”I’m taken aback, but I’m not abou

[Vivienne]I’m pacing in the room, unsure of what to do next when there’s a knock on the door.For a second, I just stare at it, wondering who it could be. Everything that’s happened tonight has left a deep impression on me—I don’t feel safe anymore.But when the knock comes again, I have no choice but to answer.Thankfully, it’s Mrs. Sullivan standing on the other side, holding a pair of folded clothes.“Change of clothes for you,” she says, handing them to me with her usual bored expression.I consider asking her if I can make a call, but before I can, she shoves the clothes into my arms and turns to leave.I don’t understand why everyone here acts so strangely, looking at me like I’m either insignificant or beneath them, but I know one thing—I don’t like it. Why the hell did I get into this situation in the first place? I didn’t ask for any of this, did I?I close the door, lock it from the inside, and drop the clothes on the bed. I start pacing the room again, deciding I need to f

[Vivienne]I don’t remember being so clumsy, but apparently, that’s who I am now.The maid and I stare at each other with wide eyes, neither of us daring to move. I open my mouth to apologize, but before I can say anything, Alexander and his father appear in the hallway.“What the hell is going on here?” the older man snaps, his eyes drilling into the maid and me. “Why are you standing there like idiots? Clean this mess up.”I glance at the maid, but she’s already scurrying away to get a broom. I kneel down and start picking up the shards, but just as I do, Alexander quickly appears behind me.“You don’t have to do that,” he says, grabbing my arm.I look up at him, frowning. “It’s okay. I’ll help.”“No, you won’t. The maids can take care of it. You’re my guest. Just let them do their job.”I want to protest, but then I notice his father and the guards who’ve gathered after the commotion, and I realize this isn’t the time to argue. So, I stand up and let Alexander lead me away.We walk

[Vivienne]I don’t have to hear anything anymore.For some reason, I thought he was different—still, a criminal, but a better man who knew how to treat a woman right—but maybe such men are almost impossible to find.“Well, that settles it then,” I grumble under my breath and get out of the car, not waiting for him to say anything anymore.But before I head inside whatever this place is, his deeply exhausted voice comes from behind.“If I didn’t know any better, I would say you’re really mad at me.”I whirl around to face him, feeling so damn frustrated.“I am mad, but maybe not at you exactly. I just…I just hate the way men treat their women. I mean, if you’re not ready for a commitment, just say so, you know? Don’t lead her on and make her believe that you’re in love with her and that you’re going to be there for her when you clearly don’t want to. It’s just not fair. And I get that you have responsibilities and that you don’t want to be tied down, but you should at least give her a

[Vivienne]To say I’m speechless is an understatement.I know I should say something, but I can’t.He smiles at me and then steps a little closer.“You might not believe me—you have no reason to—but still, I hope you do. I know I come off as a real asshole sometimes, I’m not the easiest person to work for, and I’ve made some questionable decisions. But I’m not a monster. I’d never do that to a woman. I can’t.”There’s something in his eyes that I can’t quite decipher, but it’s so raw and so intense that it makes me feel like I can trust him.But then again, if the baby isn’t his, then…“Who is she to you?”This time, he takes a step back, his hands smoothly gliding into his pockets.The corner of his mouth quirks up. “You’re quite curious about me, aren’t you, Ms. Sinclair?”I roll my eyes, once again trying to stifle the heat rising to my face. “I just want to know what kind of man I’m dealing with here.”“I see,” he hums. “Well, if you must know, then I would like to take you somewh

[Vivienne]I stand there, watching her lose her mind, part of me wanting to laugh in her face.She’s throwing a tantrum like a spoiled child.I mean, she doesn’t even know me, yet she’s so quick to accuse me of something I have nothing to do with.“You done?” I finally ask, already over this conversation. I feel bad for her, I really do. But she should know better than to act so crazy in the first place.She glares at me, eyes wild. “You think this is funny? You think you can just waltz in and take what’s mine? You’re nothing but a pathetic wannabe, playing dress-up in a world you don’t belong in.”I cross my arms over my chest. “If that’s what you need to tell yourself, go ahead. But here’s the thing, Tanya—if you really mattered to him, you wouldn’t be out here screaming at me. You’d be with him.”Her face twists with rage, and for a second, I think she might actually try to lunge at me again, but the guards tighten their grip, keeping her in check.“You bitch!” she screeches, her v

[Vivienne]I hesitate for a moment but then step inside, my curiosity getting the better of me.The interior of the house is just as impressive as the exterior, with high ceilings and ornate furniture.It has a distinctly old-fashioned feel, with antique paintings and rugs, but it also feels warm and lived-in, with fresh flowers on the coffee table and family photos on the mantel.I take a closer look at the photos and realize they all feature the same family—Alexander’s family.Except I didn’t know Alexander had a brother. The two men in the portrait appear to be of the same height, like twins, but they don’t look alike.“Who’s that?” I ask, pointing to the picture of the dark-haired man.“You seem to be aware of the young master, Xander,” the man who greeted us at the door says, pointing to the painting of a young man. “And that’s Aiden Bane,” he continues, pointing at another young man. “Master Xander’s older brother.”I can’t contain my curiosity. The painting is so…lifelike. “Are

[Vivienne]Madam Bane gestures for me to take a seat. I do so, feeling a little nervous. I’m not sure what to expect, but I have a feeling it’s going to be something unexpected.“I’m glad you came,” she says, taking a seat across from me. “I’ve been wanting to meet you for some time now.”I blink, surprised. “You have?”She nods. “Yes. I’ve heard a lot about you. And I must say, I’m impressed. You’re a very talented young woman, and you have a bright future ahead of you.”I can’t help but blush at the compliment.“Thank you, but I’m not sure I deserve that. I mean, we might not be talking about the same things.”She laughs, her voice rich and melodious. “Oh, but I am. I know a lot about you. I know, for example, how you saved my son from being poisoned a few years ago. And I know that you have a very strong will, one that could change the world if you wanted it to.”I shift in my seat, uncomfortable with the praise. “I… I didn’t do anything. It was just a coincidence that I was there.

[Vivienne]I end up staying by Harvey’s side thorughout the night.Afraid that strange woman would show up again.I don’t know why she bothered me so much. She might have been a visitor ending up in the wrong room, something Molly suggested when I shared the incident with her. But something inside me doesn’t have faith in that reasoning.Something was weird about her. The way she ran off. In the hurry that she was in.Who was she? And what was she doing in Harvey’s room?“Vivienne?” A weak voice enters my ears, and I jerk up from my barely-there sleep, only to find Harvey gazing at me with his soft eyes.“Hey,” I lean forward, holding his hand as he tries to reach. “How are you feeling now? I should better call the doctor—”“Where is she?” he cuts me off, blinking lazily, as if still trying to force his brain to focus.He must be talking about the woman with him during the crash.“She’s fine now. In fact, I was about to check up on her once you woke up.”He sighs, closing his eyes and

[Vivienne]After spending a few hours sitting next to Harvey, who has been drifting in and out of consciousness due to the painkillers, I ask Mom and Dad to head home.They’re old and don’t have the same stamina they once did.“You should get some rest too, Vivi,” Mom says, holding my hands in hers. “You’re pregnant, and this is too much stress for you to handle right now. Think about the little life inside you. You need to be more cautious.”“I know, Mom,” I say, giving her hands a gentle squeeze. “And I’m fine. I’ve booked a room at a nearby hotel, so I’ll be staying there until I get a call from one of the nurses that Harvey is awake. They said he’ll probably sleep through the night, so there’s no point in staying.”She nods. “Good, good. Your dad and I will leave then. But let us know when you get to the hotel—we’ll worry otherwise.”“Sure, mom. Don’t worry about it.”Finally, mom and dad leave, and I sit with Harvey for a while.I look at him, and hold his hand. “You better be aw

[Unknown POV]“You didn’t have to come,” the man in the black jacket says, pulling a cigarette from his lips—not that he was smoking in the first place.Some men just love to pretend, I guess.“I need to be sure,” I tell him as I step out of the car, my gaze lifting to the hospital building. “You’re sure they’re here?”“Absolutely,” he says with confidence. “I was the one who called 911.”“You did?” I snap my head toward him, frowning at his audacity. I’m paying him to do the job, not to think. “And why the hell would you do that? I strictly asked for a crash, not a damn rescue.”“But you did say you didn’t want them to die.” He arches a brow, like he knows so much better than me.I roll my eyes. “Well, I couldn’t have cared less either way. I only said that so you wouldn’t screw it up. Killing someone brings a lot more heat than just getting them hurt. And in my personal opinion, men fall apart under pressure.”“Well, not me, clearly,” he shrugs, and I somehow resist the overwhelming

[Vivienne]My feet come to a halt, and I freeze where I am.Did I just… hear that?I can’t even be sure. There’s so much going on in my head that if someone told me I was hallucinating, I wouldn’t even be surprised.The only difference? It doesn’t seem like I am.I know I heard that. And I know, I know that voice.I turn around, brows furrowed, and take another moment just to look at the woman on the bed.“Did you say something?” I ask, slowly walking back to her, curious as to how the hell she knows my name.But the woman is silent once again, the lines on the screen making no different patterns.Maybe I did hallucinate that…I shake my head, ready to leave, when, from the corner of my eye, I notice a small movement of her hand.Her fingers—trying to lift, trying to say something.I move closer to her bed.“Hey.” I reach for her hand, hoping to calm her down. “You’re okay. It’s all going to be okay.”I don’t know if the words coming out of my mouth right now are true or a lie, but sh

[Vivienne]The nurse leads me to the operating theater first but asks me to wait outside.My hands shake as I stare at the door, wondering how Harvey must be doing.How the hell did he get into an accident? Who was the woman with him? Why did he skip work? And what the hell was he doing on the west side of the city? We don’t even have any offices there.That area is basically filled with schools, colleges, and other educational institutes."If you need anything else, I’ll be at the reception," the nurse says, ready to leave and get back to her work.I don’t let her, though.I speak before she can even turn. "How long is it going to take?"She understands what I mean by it—she must face situations like this every day. "Nothing can be said for sure right now. And I understand that waiting feels difficult, especially when your brother is in there. But trust me, the best thing you can do right now is let the doctors do their job. They will tell you everything once they’re done treating yo

I decide to pick up my things from Harvey’s place and head back to our grandparents’ house.It’s the only place where I can think clearly and have some peace to myself.God knows I need a moment to just breathe.So much has happened in a single day—my body and brain both need a well-earned break.When I arrive at his place, Mimi still hasn’t returned from school.Good. Because if she had tried to stop me one more time with those big, adorable eyes, I probably would have changed my mind. That girl has some serious charm. No wonder Harvey can’t resist any of her demands—same goes for my parents.Dad once told me that when he took her to his office—back before he retired—she demanded to play loud pony-themed music and made everyone dance, as if the entire company had thrown a party just for her.Easy to say, the employees couldn’t have asked for a better break—or a better boss.Anyway, I grab my stuff and get back into the car, making sure to leave a text for Harvey so he knows my unexpec

[Vivienne]Once I’m far enough that Avery’s screaming fades into the background, I take a deep breath, trying to calm myself.God knows what’s up with these Lawrences lately. Have they all sworn to make my life hell? To never let me have a moment of peace?I shake my head and push some loose dark curls out of my face.When I return to the table, I find Theo sitting alone.And my anger flares all over again.How could he do this to me? Out of all the women he could have dated, he chose her—the sister of my ex-husband? Did he have no respect for me? Did I not tell him what that family did to me?How could he ignore all of that and fall for a girl who is neither right for him nor anything like him?She’s just like her mother. Like Sasha. Evil. Pure evil.I still remember the day she threw that scorching coffee in my face at the café…Anyway, I take a deep breath and make my way to the table.Theo sees me approaching, and before I can say a word, he stands up, hands braced against the tab

I stare at her, unsure whether to laugh in her face or take her seriously.“End me?” I tip my head to the side, pushing her off me at the same time. “Do you hear yourself? You sound unhinged.”“You think I’m joking?”“Nah, more like you’re trying to be something you’re not.”“You think I can’t hurt you?”I roll my eyes. “Oh, please. You? Hurt me? Avery, you’re a spoiled little brat from a family of professional liars and melodramatic wannabe royals. The only thing you’ve ever ‘ended’ is a shopping spree when Daddy cut you off. So, forgive me if I find it absolutely hilarious that you think you’re some kind of threat.”Avery’s mouth drops open.She probably didn’t expect me to say something like that.I’m not surprised. I was never this sassy in front of Caden’s family. I was good, loyal, and completely dedicated. But instead of appreciating any of it, they always assumed the worst of me.And—shockingly—they still do.Anyway, now that she has nothing to say, I turn to finally get the h

[Vivienne]Avery looks just as surprised to see me.Her eyes widen, and she jolts to her feet, her face slowly turning pale.Theo probably notices her odd reaction, but before he can say anything, Avery quickly grabs my arm and giggles over her shoulder.“You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for someone to arrive. I desperately need a lady’s help. Be right back!”And with that bizarre excuse, she drags me to the bathroom, shuts the door, and spins to face me—a crown of sweat already glistening on her forehead.“What the fuck are you doing here?” she snaps, glaring at me with those little brown eyes of hers.I raise a brow. “I could ask you the same question, couldn’t I?”“Oh, shut up!”“If that’s what you want.” I turn to leave. If she wants me to shut up, then I’d rather spend my time elsewhere.But of course, she doesn’t let me.She grabs my arm and yanks me back around—hard this time.I hiss and wrench myself free. “Are you crazy? You’re hurting me.”Instead of looking guilt
