I made my my way straight to the lawyers office, I was welcomed properly and led inside. She looked at me and welcomed me with a smile, I hope the lawyer and Martha aren’t working together, I hope my instinctions are wrong.“Welcome miss Vivian” she said her smile bright.I smiled “I am sorry to bother you, I am here to accept and sign everything that was given to me by grandfather Edward”.She leaned back in her chair, rolling her pen with a little smirk on her face.“Everything?” She askedI noddedShe gazed at me, with the little smirk on her face, I wonder what was wrong.“You are not the type to be interested in all that, why do you want to accept it If I may ask” she saidI smiled and adjusted my chair, leaning forward to her on the table“Do I have to explain why? Did he also tell you to ask us why we are going to accept what he gave us?”.She laughed aloud and brought out some papers, I glanced through it all and could see it was a real paper regarding my ownership of everythi

VIVIANI was quiet for a while, unsure of how to respond to her question. She had asked me why I needed to know the truth about her past, and I realized that I didn't have a valid reason. At least, not one that I could articulate.But as I sat there, trying to gather my thoughts, I knew that it was important for me to know the truth."I don't know," I said finally, looking up at her. "I just feel like I need to know. Like there's something important here that I'm missing."She nodded, her expression understanding. "I see," she said. "Well, I suppose I can tell you. But you have to promise me one thing.""Anything," I said, eager to hear her story."You have to promise me that you will not tell anybody about this," she said. "Can you do that? And I am trusting you because grandfather has said a lot about you "I nodded, feeling a sense of trepidation. "I promise," I said. "I'll listen with an open mind."She nodded, taking a deep breath. "I was raised by my grandfather," she said. "I d

Then he walked upstairs with my bags.I faced Mira, my eyes locked onto hers. "What's the problem?" I asked, my voice low and quiet.But instead of answering, she slowly opened her water bottle and poured it on my head.I gasped, shocked by the sudden move. Water dripped down my face, soaking my hair and clothes.Mira's eyes flashed with anger, her face twisted in a scowl. "Just because he gave you everything doesn’t m

VIVIAN POV“You can’t pull that trigger can you?” Martha asked, her eyes locked on mine.I smirked, a sense of malice creeping into my voice. "I can as well start with your chosen daughter-in-law," I said, the words dripping with venom.As I spoke, I raised the gun, pointing it directly at Mira. Her eyes widened in terror, and she took a step back, her hands rubbing her big stomach “Are you crazy? Kian stop her” she yelled.Martha’s face went white, her eyes fixed on the gun in horror. "No, Vivian dont," she whispered, her voice trembling. "She is pregnant."I laughed, "Why not?" I sneered. "She's just a pawn in your games too, isn't she? A means to an end. I am going to give the rules in this mansion, you might as well get out now if you wont accept” I said my eyes locked on Martha’s.She nodded “Fine...Have it your way”.I smiled, a sense of triumph on my face, and dropped the gun to the floor. "Worthless guards," I sneered, shaking my head. "Even I could manage to collect that weap

VIVIAN POVAs I stood tall by the window, folding my arms across my chest, I watched Kian leave with a sense of resolve. The atmosphere seemed clear, and I knew I had no intention of stopping him. I couldn't make him choose between me and his family; that was a decision only he could make.All I could do was ensure that I used all the authority and power I had right now to protect myself and what was rightfully mine. I felt a sense of determination wash over me as I watched Kian's car disappear into the distance.I turned away from the window, my eyes scanning the room as I took a deep breath, I knew that this was just the beginning.The sound of my phone suddenly snapped me back to reality, breaking the spell of determination that had settled over me. I looked down to see our lawyer, Louis's name flashing on the screen. I wondered why she was calling me now, of all times."Hey how are you doing Louis," I said, my voice soft and cool, as I answered the call."Sorry to disturb you," Lo

VIVIAN POVAs I walked downstairs to get some air, I couldn't shake off the feeling of loneliness that had settled over me. The grandeur of the mansion seemed to only emphasize my isolation.Just as I reached the bottom of the stairs, I saw Julian emerging from Martha's room. I stopped dead in my tracks, watching him with a mixture of curiosity and wariness.He didn't seem to notice me at first, his eyes fixed on some point ahead. But as he approached the entrance door, his gaze flickered towards me. Our eyes met for a brief moment, and I felt a shiver run down my spineAs he reached the door, he turned back to glance at me. The smirk was still plastered on his face, and I could sense a hint of triumph in his eyes.I felt my gaze follow him as he walked towards his car, parked outside the mansion. He got in and started the engine, the sound of the motor echoing through the silence.As he drove away, I couldn't help but wonder what had just transpired. What had Julian been doing in Mar

VIVIAN POV"What? Why the eye, I didn't do anything," I said, glaring at Kian. His piercing gaze made me feel uneasy, like he could see right through me.Mira stepped in, her voice soft and calming. "Come on, Mother, let me escort you to your room.""Go, Mom," Kian said firmly, his eyes never leaving mine. "Mira, take her inside. You both help each other out, either way, just go, I am exhausted."Mira nodded and gently took Martha’s arm, leading themselves away. But noticed she did not say a word, turned out she wanted to act victim in front of Kian.As Mira and Martha disappeared from view, Kian turned to me, his eyes filled with concern. "Vivian, can you be a little more careful?" he asked, his voice laced with a hint of frustration.I looked down at my feet, feeling a twinge of guilt. "It’s nothing, I am fine." I said, waving my hand dismissively.But Kian wasn't having it. He strode towards me, his long legs eating up the distance. Before I knew it, he had scooped me up in his arm

VIVIAN POV"Just lie low, will you?" I said, trying to reason with her.She smirked, her eyes glinting with defiance. "Why should I?" she asked, her voice dripping with arrogance."Kian is your son, isn't he?" I asked, trying to get to the root of the issue.She turned her gaze off me, refusing to give me a response. But I knew I had hit a nerve."Your son should be the one to be successful if you had to choose between who should be," I said, trying to make her see sense. "Stop being in competition with your son."She turned back to me, her eyes flashing with anger. "You don't get to lecture me," she said, her voice firm."I'm not lecturing you," I said, trying to calm her down. "I'm just trying to make you see reason. You're his mother, for crying out loud. You should be supporting him, not competing with him."She sneered at me, her face twisted in contempt.“If you dont behave yourself, you will be forcing me to act badly against you” I saidShe smiled “What can you do?”“Kian does
