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
VIVIAN POV“I will tell Kian everything but not now, I will also tell him who his real parents are” I said my voice barely above a whisper.Louis suddenly gazed at Vivian“His real parent?” She said in shockVivian noddedVivian's eyes widened in shock as Louis confronted her. "Miss Vivian, you knew about his real parent and you kept quiet?" Louis's voice was laced with disbelief and frustration.Vivian's face fell, her eyes darting to the floor in guilt. She knew she had made a mistake by not telling Kian the truth.I turned my gaze at her, my expression mirroring Louis's frustration. "Wait, what was I supposed to do? How do you even want me to tell him?" I asked, my voice firm but laced with a hint of desperation.Louis went silent for a while, her eyes fixed on Vivian's downcast face. Then, she spoke up, her voice soft but firm. "You could have just opened up to him about everything, did you even know how much he wanted to know his real mother?"Vivian's arms crossed over her chest
Kian's gaze lingered on me for a while, his eyes piercing through mine as if searching for something. I began to wonder what I had said to make him so quiet, his silence unsettling."Kian... I deserve an answer, dont be silent like this." I said, my voice breaking the silence.He suddenly stood up from his table, his chair scraping against the floor. He walked towards the window, his back to me, and gazed out at the city skyline.“Viv, I get that you want her with you, but that's one thing that is impossible," Kian said, his voice firm but laced with a hint of regret.I walked towards him, my heels clicking on the floor. "Why is it impossible?" I asked, my voice firm but laced with curiosity.Kian smirked, his eyes still fixed on the window.
