VIVIAN POVI stood still, watching Mira leave, and then suddenly felt my legs give way beneath me. I collapsed to the ground, my vision blurring.The guards were running helter-skelter, shouting and trying to rush to my side. Kian burst out of the room, his face etched with worry."Call a doctor!" he yelled at the guards. "Now!"I tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness washed over me, forcing me back down. Louis rushed to my side, concern etched on her face.But I gazed up at her, trying to convey a message. Don't let the doctor come, I pleaded silently.Louis gazed back at me, her eyes understanding. But she just murmured, "It's too late."Kian walked by my side after calling the doctor, holding my hand and patting my back. "I'm fine, Kian," I whispered, my voice barely above a whisper. "The doctor doesn't need to stress himself."But Kian was having none of it. "No, no, you've been looking very pale these days," he said, his voice filled with worry. "The doctor should check on you
CHAPTER 79VIVIAN POV“What a good day” I said to myself, I checked the time and it was around 8am, I couldn’t find Kian anywhere in the room so I assumed he could be somewhere in the mansion.I slowly stood up and walked downstairs, but I noticed everywhere was silent “where could everyone go? I murmured to myself suddenly Annie arrived at the right time.“Perfect timing, walk slowly do not make noise” I whispered to her “Let’s go search Martha’s room” I said my voice barely above a whisper.As I tip-toed towards Martha's room, my heart was racing with excitement and a hint of nervousness. I had been waiting for this moment for what felt like an eternity, and finally, the perfect opportunity had presented itself.Annie followed closely behind me, her eyes wide with curiosity. I had instructed her to be quiet, and she nodded obediently, her lips sealed.We reached Martha's room, and I slowly turned the handle, pushing the door open with caution. The room was dimly lit, the curtains dr
Just then, Louis appeared at the door. "Miss Vivian, the car is ready. We need to leave now."I nodded and turned to Annie. "Go and call Mira now, we have to get going”.Annie nodded.“Where is Kian?” I asked my voice firm but suddenly I heard a voice behind me.“Looking for me?” he asked his voice voices huskyI smiled and slowly walked towards him, my heart racing with anticipation. Mira was already coming out of her room, her face downcast and her eyes fixed on the floor. She looked so silent, so withdrawn, and I couldn't help but feel nothing for her at that moment.Kian didn't seem to have much interest in Mira's world anymore, I noticed that. He was too busy gazing at me, his eyes burning with intensity.Kian held my hand and walked me towards his car, his grip firm and possessive. "Take Mira into the car, Annie should sit beside her," he ordered, his voice low and commanding."Louis should also sit beside her," I added, my voice firm and authoritative.Louis gazed at me all of
The doctor nodded and continued, "Very well. I'll have my nurse come in and take the necessary blood samples. We'll get the process started right away."The nurse came in and took Kian's blood sample first, then the mother's. "This might sting a little," she said, as she inserted the needle into the mother's vein.As the nurse was taking the blood samples, the door burst open and Mira's mother, accompanied by her bodyguards, stormed in. "How dare you do this to my daughter, Kian?" she yelled, her face red with rage.Kian stood up, taken aback by the sudden interruption. "Miss kate?” he said, trying to remain calm.Mira's mother slapped him hard across the face. "I am not here to chitchat with you! You're trying to take advantage of my daughter and her unborn child!"Mira ran towards her mother, excitement and happiness radiating from her face. "Mom! You're here!"But I was stunned. I remembered collecting Mira's phone the night before, and there were no messages sent. How did Mira's
Miss Kate's eyes narrowed as she approached me. "What's your name?" she asked, her voice dripping with venom.I remained silent, refusing to engage with her. But she wouldn't let up."Vivian, right?" she spat. "You're the understanding wife that Kian has after everything his mother has done to you, after all the betrayal and how your wedding was destroyed."My anger flared, and I couldn't keep quiet any longer. "That's not the issue here," I snapped, my voice firm.Miss Kate raised an eyebrow. "Oh, really? Then what is the issue?"“The issue here is your child claimed Kian’s is the father of her child, your child was the reason why my marriage was destroyed, your child destroyed everything in this family. So where were you all this while? Its obvious you didn’t train her well” I spat.Miss Kate raised her hand at me but Louis stopped her“I warned you” Louis said her voice firm and deep, Miss Kate dropped her hand and gave me final glance after that she held Mira’s hand and walked out
I slowly stepped back, covering my mouth, what I had just discovered could get us both Killed if people find out about it.“What do we do?” I asked, my gaze on Louis.Louis glared at me for a while short of words.“How about we move all this?” she said“To where?” I asked my voice barely above a whisper.“I don’t know” she said. “How about your parents house?” she suggested.I glared at her and processed what she just said but it’s very risky it could get my family killed if they found out about it, suddenly Louis phone rang and it popped out Kian’s name, She hesitated and suggested we go out of the hidden room and come back for them later.As we walked back into the mansion, I made sure to lock the room and keep the key safe. Louis and I exchanged a knowing glance, our hearts still racing from the incredible discovery. We had to pretend that nothing was amiss, that we hadn't uncovered a treasure trove of secrets and riches.Just then, Kian emerged from the shadows, his deep, husky vo
Martha hesitated before she could speak up, her eyes fixed on the floor. But then, Mrs. George dropped her cup, the sound of shattering porcelain filling the room. It was as if the noise had given Martha the courage she needed."Her name is Vivian," Martha said, her voice barely above a whisper.Mrs. George nodded, trying to process what Martha had just said. "Okay...So you mean, Vivian stopped...no, ruined all your plans?" she asked, her voice laced with confusion.Martha nodded. "Yes, that's right," she said, her voice cracking.Mrs. George sat down, her eyes wide with shock. "I don't understand," she said. "What did Vivian do?"Martha took a deep breath before speaking. "Vivian was given a lot than you could ever imagine, she was also given the mansion which is why I had no access to anything”.Mrs. George leaned forward, her eyes locked onto Martha's. "So you managed to kill grandfather Edward but you cant do the same to Vivian?" she asked, her voice firm.Martha's eyes widened in
Martha couldn’t choose what’s best for her instead she choosed money over her health.Mrs George smiled “Maybe you are fated to die, you have killed a lot of people so dont be scared to meet the same fate as them” she said.Martha gazed at her feeling so angry and hurt with those words.Martha sat alone in the dimly lit room, her eyes fixed on the door through which Mrs. George had just left. She knew she didn't have much time left. The poison she had accidentally ingested weeks ago had been slowly coursing through her veins, draining the life from her body.A faint smile played on her lips as she thought about her life. She had always been driven by a desire for power and wealth, and she had stopped at nothing to get it. She had killed, manipulated, and betrayed her way to the top, leaving a trail of bodies in her wake.But now, as she faced her own mortality, Martha realized the emptiness of her pursuits. She had thought that power and money would bring her happiness, but instead, t
