Not Anymore Lan's girlfriend
Alex saw her after a few years and could still recognise her from the back view? If she hadn't acted out of impulse, he might probably just walk away and assume he was wrong. But her senses were heightened that she readily responded to her name. Only her face was able to save her. But she might have had plastic surgery on her face, but her back was still in its natural state. She hopes to be careful next time. But when she saw Alex, a part of her was filled with contempt and vengefulness. She felt like scratching his face with her long nails and seeing him bleed and leaving scars behind. Isn't that what his promiscuous girlfriend did to her, slashing her face and leaving deep cuts and scars on her face? She wouldn't have lived to see the light of the present day if Ebele mom hadn't come to her rescue. She not only rescued her from death, she gave her a new look and a new identity. She used to love him dearly and no wonder she wasn't a bit angry when he lied to

Jeniva felt her knees knocked against each other. She's certain that if she wasn't sitting, she might need help with someone to support. She glanced at Alex and saw him staring at the same woman intently. What, is he thinking what she's also thinking? Did he see Isabella in that woman besides Lan Keith? Her complexion turned pale but quickly she regained her composure and faked a relaxed smile. But as Lan Keith and Fiona approached them, her mind was beating faster than usual. Lan Keith and Fiona walked side by side as the manager of the eatery walked over and bowed slightly before Lan Keith “We're glad to have you here, CEO Lan” he said. “Thank you” Lan responded, turning his gaze on Alex and Jeniva briefly. He maintained his usual expressionless face and looked away. Fiona glanced at the two betrayals briefly and looked away. She looked elegant and classical and the first impression is that she's Lan Keith's girlfriend. A part of her was fuming with

Fiona just stared at him calmly as if she didn't understand what he said. The idiot has discovered her true identity. How long does she have to hide it more? “You left me and eloped with your lover and returned with a changed face and didn't bother coming to find me?” Alex chided. His eyes had turned reddish. How on earth can Isabella treat him this way? He loves her. He flopped once, yes, that's true. And he doesn't deserve it to be treated. “What are you saying Mr Foster?” She asked, acting to be lost. But Alex wouldn't buy that pretence anymore as he suddenly raised her chin and below it was a port wine stain birthmark. But Fiona grew furious and flinged Alex's hand off. She glared at him with a killing intent. She'd always had that mark and Alex was fond of caressing it back then. “How dare you Alex Foster” Fiona thundered. Who said he could touch her? Who says he has that audacity to do so. But Alex just glared at Fiona for a few seconds until sud

Without waiting for her mother to respond nor passing a glance at whoever was standing there, she moved forward and touched Nathan's chin with her palm. “His fever had subsided, mom,” she said in a relaxed tone. That was when she glanced at the fellow standing and next she squinted as a broad smile followed. She went to him and hugged Fred “Doctor Fred” she chimed. Her eyes became teary. She couldn't look at him back then,the disfigured face made her lose her self esteem. Fred held her close and next cupped her face in his palm. He was looking into those eyes, he recognised those eyes, they were the only part on her face that wasn't covered in a bandage. This is her, this is his patient back then. The one that made him had sleepless nights, missed many dinners with his parents and siblings and made him desperately want a positive outcome. The patient that the other medical team described as having 70/30% chances of survival. Many said she won't come out of it. He

Alex had been hanging around. He trailed the two lovers to the hospital and waited outside, taking notes of which ward they've been to and the ones he shouldn't make a mistake of stepping into. It was only now that he saw a woman with a striking resemblance with Fiona, the new look of Isabella, that he got the exact ward. Fiona who had sat next to her son on the hospital bed raised her head to glance at whoever stepped in. Perhaps it's the doctor or her Mom forgot something and came back to pick it. But the person that got in was not those she expected, it's the last person she ever thought to see. She stood up and walked closer to Alex. The latter stood, he stared at the little boy sleeping peacefully and a faint smile appeared on his face. He is the spitting image of Isabella Manor. The boy really took after his mom. No matter how she disguised herself, she cannot hide the gene from flowing freely from one generation to the next. In order to hide away

Fiona's words caught him off guard. He didn't expect that Isabella would know about it. It was just between them both and she pressured him to have the pregnancy terminated. Thinking about it now, he is not even certain if the pregnancy was his. Having discovered that she's a bitch, he no longer believes a word of hers. “Yes, Jeniva was pregnant with my child,but it only happens after you leave. I couldn't control my heartbreak and eventually we started having a thing or two with each other. But that doesn't justify the fact that you are a saint. There isn't anything more innocent about you and I. We both have fallen in the same direction. So before you judge me, do think twice because you aren't saint yourself. And back to the issue, I'm going to stay with my son until he recovers. You have taken him away from me for too long. And now that I have found him, I'm keeping him with me henceforth” Alex defended. “Stay away from my kids. You are not their fa
Last Updated : 2024-03-10Not Anymore Lan wants to know
Within seconds, a thousand thoughts run through Fiona's mind. Fred Keith knows about her true identity. He knew about her change of personality from Isabella to Fiona. He knows what made her have a different facial look from Isabella and more than that, he saved her life and that of her babies. He is Lan Keith's brother? The latter is searching everywhere for Isabella Manor and she is trying her best to watch her nervousness whenever he mentions the name Isabella by her side. But how long can her secret be kept a secret, how long can she pretend to Lan Keith that she's not Isabella Manor and does not even know the person? What if Fred tells his brother about her, what if he spills the beans and Lan got to know that she's the same person he'd been searching everywhere for? “Do you both know each other?” Lan asked, looking from Fiona to Fred. They should know each other in some other ways but not what he's thinking about. Fred is good with his job but he

Lan glared at his brother, why is he acting as if he doesn't understand what he meant. “How well do you know Fiona?” He asked. He hopes he will understand him now? “As long as I have known Mrs Ebele Johnson. They once visited the hospital when I was on duty and we have had a cordial relationship since then” Fred lied. Inwardly he sighed. See just how he lied to his brother about Isabella. He couldn't bring himself to tell Lan that he had known her since she was surnamed Manor. But somehow, it isn't really a complete lie. He truly had only known Fiona after he met her foster family. And last that he remembers, they are not in each other's bad books. “You've been away for so long and yet have a cordial relationship with the Johnson's?” Lan grumbled, hissing and walking in front of his brother. Fred would never lie to him. They've been siblings all their lives and he certainly knows that he would never prefer other people to him. Seeing his brother wasn't sh

Not Anymore We'll get justice
Maybe he should go and come back at a time when the present tension has subsided. But then, he wants to know about his daughter as well. He'd been restless from the moment he knows that he has a daughter “My husband and I want to live peacefully. My daughter has always been found innocent and I'm sure that this time,her innocence would be proven once again…” Maria Manor stuttered. Larry Freeman nodded. She's not thinking straight at the moment. What has her daughter's innocence got to do with him and his daughter? “Oh…” Larry trailed off. What the heck! Why would he let his desire lead him this far? He needs to leave immediately and come back another time. “Yes sir. Jeniva was raised like a princess, alongside her cousin, Isabella. These girls grow up knowing only one language: love. How can all these charges be levelled against her? This is unfair. Whoever is doing this to her, will never get away with it. We'll fight for Justice and we'll surely
Not Anymore A visit to the Manor mansion
“I've said it before Lan, that the she-devil surnamed Manor and I aren't related in any way. We lived in the same mansion in the past but that doesn't automatically mean we are family” Fiona complained. Of all the people on earth, why would she be willing to be related to that monster? She would never have imagined that someone with an innocent facial expression can be this callous. “Yeah..I think I remember now, that you once told me she's not your cousin” Lan teased and chuckled. Fiona sighed softly. She glanced at Lan “take me home, I need to rest my head and think about what Jeniva's face would look like when she discovered that I have all the information that would usher her into jail forever..” This feeling makes her belly sweet. Someone needs to be a step ahead of her otherwise, she would think of herself to be something else,lofty and untouchable. “I think we should use this medium to our advantage, Isabella. What her face would look like doesn
Not Anymore Something in exchange
Few minutes to 7pm, Lan Keith's private bodyguard called him and informed him that Luna Wesley had arrived at the Suitoria guest house and she's alone. Only then did Lan allow Fiona Johnson to place a call across to her. The latter replied promptly and Fiona asked that she meet her instead. Luna Wesley was dazed and at the same time happy that Miss Johnson honoured her invitation. It means she could get what she wants if she played her card well. Hence she contemplated on going over to meet her wherever she is. She replied and said she doesn't mind. And Fiona said she should step out of the hotel, some bodyguards were going to bring her over. Luna Wesley felt uncomfortable. Besides being a mere secretary to CEO Lan Keith, what other personalities does Miss Johnson have to make her hire bodyguards? Well, perhaps because of her abduction, she suddenly hired men to be her bodyguard. Anyways, what she wants is a ladder to the top. She stepped out and just th

Doe least expected to see the police men in the hospital and in Jeniva's ward to be precise. What the heck do they want from her? “Good day Miss Manor. We are officers from the police department and you are invited to our office to answer a few questions” one of the officers announced. Jeniva Manor's temple was now covered with beads of sweat. How on earth can it be heard that she left the hospital to the police department? She was going to seize the opportunity of having Barr. Doe with her and slip away quietly under less questions from the journalists. But these men, what do they want with her now? They've ruined this opportunity for her. “To be more precise, are you here to arrest my client?” Barr. Doe asked. He's too mature to believe such fairy tales from the police. Going to their office to get questioned was nothing different from being arrested and taken for interrogation. They can use that casual way of saying it to others, but not to some
Not Anymore National disgrace
In the Starlight entertainment industry, things have really gone jangled up. It's not news that Junxi Li has publicly been relieved of his job and his co accomplice had been blacklisted. Majority of the artists were celebrating privately that finally, perhaps a chance has come for them to rise in their career. This is going to be the opportunity they all sought after. Mrs Lorita was explaining the situation to the higher ups in the emergency board meeting. Her husband was out of the country but he had been restless from the moment the news of the scandal became the hottest news in town. Jeniva manor might have been the black sheep caught up in the web of the scandal again but the one suffering the most is the company. How can it be heard that the best entertainment industry in the city has raised such an artist who only knows how to get to the top by using their body to do it? And knowing that such purifying acts were being orchestrated amidst the staff
Not Anymore About his daughter
“Thank you for the honour of doing work with you, Mr Larry. Like I told you some time ago, I found a clue but today, I can point you to exactly where your daughter can be found. But we can only get information concerning her whereabouts, she'd left this city a few years ago and hadn't returned…” Jasmine informed Larry. No one knows how much she worked hard to find out the whereabouts of the Manor's family second Miss. The last sentence in Jasmine's words makes Larry feel uncomfortable. He'd thought he would meet his daughter eventually. But now, he has to begin from somewhere again. Although the information gathered so far was enough pointer for him to begin the second part of his investigation again. At least, he would be able to know the family his daughter had grown up with. “It's alright. You told me back then that her name is Isabella. Does she bear Alfred as her last name too?” He demanded. Did she take up her mother's last name or did she let
Not Anymore More vengeful
Lan kissed her sweetly. Fiona crossed her hands around his neck and kissed him back. It continued and gradually became a passionate one, each deepening the kiss, tongues locked, desire ignited. Fiona felt her body responded to Lan desiring something more satisfying, something more bonding and merging together. She snuggled harder into him and they kissed. A soft moan escaped Fiona's lips and Lan kissed her harder. His body was aflame and his hardness was going really rigid when his phone chirped. Lan reluctantly paused and pulled out of the kisses. Fiona's cheeks blushed as she felt shy at her sudden vulnerability in Lan's arms. Lan answered his phone and when he hung up, he said “Jeniva Manor has become a blacklisted artist in the Starlight entertainment industry. Meanwhile, investigation is ongoing on the cause of death of Scorpion's men . I have this strong intuition that they were poisoned and the mastermind behind this act cannot be far from that cou
Not Anymore I met a woman
“What? I already agreed to open up to you. Why should I lose my teeth?” Scorpion demanded, his eyes reddened and popping out,beads of sweat emerged on his temple. No one responded to him but the bodyguard seized the chance he got, when he decided to explain and kept his lips apart with the plier and before Scorpion could say Jack, he heard a sound of a noise on his tooth. The sound travelled through his ears and he heard a loud hollow noise that forced his way out of his ears and the pain followed. His head seemed to spin in pain. His brain seemed to only process the degree of pain while other impulses were placed on a temporary breakdown. Then the second hitting, he raised his ass up like he was going to jump out of the chair but he couldn't go beyond that. His legs were tied and so were his hands. He screamed in pain as suddenly he felt a force pulling out of his tooth. He screamed louder and painfully. Blood gushed out of his mouth and his he
Not Anymore Being tortured
Larry goggled through the recent news in Florida and stumbled upon the news of a certain abducted woman Fiona Johnson. This kind of news is everywhere these days but the active response of the police team was commendable. The fact that the criminals were apprehended speaks well of their professionalism but the breaking news of having those criminals dead in the police custody was something else. For the three men to have died at once in a single night calls for alarm. There's something wrong somewhere. There's an insider, a Judas among the twelve. Until that bad sheep is fished out of the fold, people would begin to lose trust in the Police department. As he perused through his phone, he was sipping from his glass of alcohol. Then the Jeniva Manor scandal broke out. Seeing the headlines, he scrolled over it, without bothering to read it. Youths of this generation are like that. Youthful exuberance, careless adventure. From what he'd found out, this
