MIRABELThe day had been long and exhausting, but the weight of uncertainty had kept me awake. Ethan's DNA test had been the final thread holding together years of questions, doubts, and sleepless nights. I had to know if he was truly mine, if the child I had always wondered about had been in my arms all along.I walked out of the room. My heart was pounding, the paper heavy with the truth I had been searching for. The hallway felt endless as I made my way toward Raymond, who was standing at the edge of the room, his eyes full of concern. Ryan, Louis, and Victoria sat nearby, their faces reflecting the same worry that had been haunting all of us."I did a DNA test on Ethan," I said, my voice barely above a whisper.Raymond straightened up, his eyes locking onto mine. The room fell into an eerie silence as everyone stood up,their gaze on me"How did it turn out?" Ryan asked, his voice hesitant, as if he was bracing himself for the worst.I swallowed hard, the words caught in my throat.
Reports coming everywhere told us that Aliana was on her way to the airport. We rushed there but then I couldn't take it anymore. I told Ryan to stop the car, and the other convoy also stopped.“Kate, come with me” I said and we walked into one of the cars, the body guards stepped down and joined the third car.“Mirabel what on earth are you doing?” Raymond yelled at me “Kate knows how to drive, let's split into three, I will face her at the other side of the road” I said and Kate drove off immediately.As we continued driving, the road grew busier, and I kept a close eye on Ryan's car. "What's the color of her car?" I asked him, my voice firm and focused."Its black," he replied, rattling off the license plate number.Just then, Aliana took a wrong turn, unaware of our presence. She saw my car approaching and tried to turn back, but it was too late. Raymond's car blocked her path, trapping her. I leapt out of the car, sprinting towards her with Kate close behind."Let go of Ethan,
As I slowly opened my eyes, blinking away the fog of sleep, a gentle sense of peace settled over me. For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt like myself again. The weakness that had gripped my body was finally gone. The endless days of pain and uncertainty had melted away like a bad dream. I inhaled deeply, savoring the feeling of strength and renewal coursing through my veins. The air tasted sweeter, the light filtering through the curtains seemed warmer. I had come back to life, and it was a beautiful morning.The door to my room creaked open softly, and I turned my head to see Raymond standing in the doorway. His face lit up as soon as our eyes met, his expression a mixture of relief and love that made my heart ache with emotion. He rushed over to my side, kneeling by the bed and taking my hands in his, holding them as if I were the most precious thing in the world."You're awake," he breathed, his voice thick with emotion. "You're really awake."I smiled, squeezing hi
"No way, why would you f**k my friend on the night of the best surgeon day” I screamed after seeing Andrew and Aliana in the storage room.“No way you would probably get chosen” Andrew said rushing out of the storage roomI closed my eyes and opened it again so I could get what exactly is going on right nowIs this a dream, obviously not this is real“Aliana" I screamedShe rushed out of the storage room immediatelyI couldn’t bear the thought of Aliana seen with my boyfriend so I ran outside“Jeez, that damn ugly thing" I said as I threw a punch at the car window “oh my Goodness” I dropped my bags and closed my mouth “damn I thought it was my car"The owner of the car opened the car door and held my hands“What have you done to my car glasses” he said looking so paranoidI shivered in fear “oh no I am sorry, I am so sorry, I thought it was my car” I said begging for forgiveness“Oh my goodness, you are hurt” I touched his face which the glasses left a scratch on “its bleeding" I said
I rushed straight into the office, my heart racing with anticipation and anxiety. I was directed to the new Surgeon doctor, who is going to be my new partner at work.I walked in his office as directed, And then, I saw him. My ex-father, John. The man I had slept with, in a moment of weakness and vulnerability.He looked up from his desk, a mixture of surprise and guilt on his face. " Mirabel" he said, his voice dripping with shock "You work here ?"I took a deep breath, trying to calm my racing thoughts.John's expression changed, his eyes narrowing."Do you want people to say I am sleeping with my coworker?" John said, his voice dripping with malice. "Because that's what they'll think, Mirabel. They'll think you're just another office tramp, sleeping your way to the top."I felt a surge of anger at his words, but I knew I had to keep my cool.John's face turned red with rage, and he took a step closer to me. "Alright, I don’t think I should care about what people will say all I know
As I slowly opened my eyes, the bright morning light piercing through the window felt like a sharp dagger to my brain. I groggily lifted my head off the pillow, and a wave of nausea washed over me, making my stomach churn with a sickening feeling. I felt like I'd been hit by a truck, my body heavy and weak.I tried to sit up, but the room began to spin, and I fell back onto the bed, my heart racing. The thought of getting out of bed and going to work felt like an insurmountable task. I couldn't shake off the feeling of sickness that had settled in the pit of my stomach, like a dark cloud looming over me.I took a few deep breaths, hoping to calm my racing thoughts and settle my queasy stomach. But the nausea persisted, threatening to unleash a torrent of unwanted contents from my stomach. I slowly turned onto my side, praying that the day would pass me by, and I could just sleep away the sickness. But the clock on my nightstand seemed to mock me, ticking away the minutes, reminding me
As I walked away from the tense encounter, I felt a subtle shift within my body. It was as if my cells were recalibrating, my nervous system unwinding, and my muscles relaxing. The tension that had been coiled within me like a spring began to unravel, releasing its hold on my physical form.With each step, I felt my body returning to its natural state, like a river flowing back into its tranquil course. My heartbeat slowed, my breathing deepened, and my mind cleared. The fog of anxiety and stress lifted, revealing a sense of clarity and calm.As the minutes ticked by, I felt my body fully return to normal, like a soft breeze on a summer day. My thoughts were no longer clouded by the emotional turmoil, and I was able to think with precision and clarity. I felt grounded, centered, and at peace.It was as if my body had been holding its breath, waiting for the storm to pass. And now, with the calm after the storm, I felt rejuvenated, refreshed, and ready to face whatever lay ahead.As I
I collapsed into Victoria’s embrace, my body racked with sobs as I clung to her like a lifeline. "I'm pregnant, oh God, I'm pregnant," I wailed, my voice shattered by despair.Victoria’s arms wrapped around me, holding me close as I surrendered to the anguish that had been building inside me. My tears soaked into her dress, my body trembling with the weight of my grief."I shouldn't be, I shouldn't be, I cant be, no… no, Vic do something," I moaned, my voice cracking with each word. "I'm not ready, I'm not ready to be a mother."Victoria’s hands stroked my hair, her touch gentle and comforting, but I couldn't be consoled. I was consumed by the fear of the unknown, the terror of being trapped in a life I wasn't prepared for."I shouldn’t be ," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "What am I going to do? What am I going to do?"The words were a lament, a cry of despair from a soul torn apart by the revelation. I felt like my world was crumbling around me, like everything I thought I kn

As the last wisps of Emma's life slipped away, Annie's own vitality began to wane. The relentless pursuit of vengeance, the endless cycle of pain and anger, had finally taken its toll. She felt the weight of her exhaustion, the crushing burden of her grief, and knew she could fight no more. She knew she didn't have to fight for anything anymore, John was already down, he had lost his company, and a lot of people.With a heavy heart, Annie bid farewell to the opulent halls of John's mansion, leaving behind the only life she had known for so long. She turned her back on the memories, both bitter and sweet, and walked away from the two people who had become her unlikely family Andrew and little Ethan.As she disappeared into the horizon, Annie sought a fresh start, a new dawn where the shadows of her past wouldn't haunt her. She yearned for a place to heal, to rediscover herself, and to find solace in the quiet rhythms of an ordinary life.The wind whispered secrets in her ear, of a tomo
As Emma reached the hotel, she texted Annie and told her she was at the hotel but Annie said it out in the house, a secret that was meant to be kept.“Why would Emma go to a hotel?” She asked her gaze on Aliana and Andrew “Really?” Aliana asked Annie nodded, Aliana now realized that Emma was the one who was standing at the entrance of her room, she smiled and turned her gaze at Annie “Which hotel is she staying at? We have to go check on her and ask her why she is staying in there” Aliana said, but before Annie could speak up, the maid broke a plate, Annie got furious and rushed over to her questioning her why would break a plate. Aliana rolled her eyes in anger, she just needed few seconds. Annie was about to open us but the maid messed things up.Annie walked back into the living room so she could finish what she started with Aliana but her phone beeped again.“Do not tell anybody it's for our safety”.Annie's eyes widened and immediately, she stood up and walked into her room, s
---Aliana stormed out of the living room, her heels striking the marble floor with a sharp staccato rhythm as she marched toward the hallway that led to her room. Her face was twisted in anger, her mind consumed by the sudden return of Mirabel and the unexpected chaos she had brought with her. The very sight of her standing in that living room, alive and full of confidence, had shaken Aliana to her core. She had been so certain Mirabel was out of the picture, so sure that the past she’d buried would remain there hidden.But now, everything was unraveling.Slamming the door behind her, Aliana entered her bedroom, her hands trembling as she locked it. She leaned against the heavy oak door for a moment, closing her eyes and trying to steady her breathing. Her heart was pounding in her chest, adrenaline coursing through her veins. She had worked so hard to keep everything under control, to maintain the facade of the perfect life she had built with Andrew. And now, in a single night, Mira
And after the joyful night,they all drifted off to sleep.8AM IN THE MORNING.Raymond woke up but he didnt to disturb her so Kate told him about her schedule and he woke her up. Mirabel walked into the bathtube and she took her bath, fews minutes later she came out and she dressed. She walked into the grand living room and saw Kate, she had already been waiting for her.“Where are you going? What are your plans for today?” Raymond askedMirabel smiled “I am going to visit John and his family, I have to personally announce my arrival to them, I bet they would be so shock by now” she said Raymond nodded “Be careful, I have something to tell you if you are back” he said “What is it about? Can't you just tell me now? I am always eager when it comes to something like this” she said Raymond smirked “Its something we need to sit and talk about” Mirabel nodded and slid into the car and they drove off to John's mansion.---As the black SUV rolled up the winding drive to John's mansion, th
It was around past 7 in the night, Mirabel stayed at the lodge because she doesnt know she would interact with Louis and the rest yet. Just as she slept off, Kate just decided to check on her in the room because she left her food on the table, as she touched her, she noticed that she was burning up.“Ma'am” Kate said as she began to tap herMirabel woke up slowly “I am not dead yet relax, I would finish my revenge before I die” she said her voice shaking and low.Kate smirked “here is a drug, I bought this incase of emergencies like this” she said and handed her a drug.Mirabel trusted Kate so much so she used the drug and slept off.9 AM IN THE MORNINGKate decided not to wake her up but she brought her the lotha she would wear, she placed them on the couch as she turned to leave Mirabel called her.“I am awake” she said and Kate stopped in her tracks.“Good morning ma'am” Kate said Mirabel nodded “Let's go to Raymond” she said and walked into the bathroom, after she finished her b
~Everyone was happy that Georgina wasn't on his side, Mrs Ava spoke up.“We have decided to make Mrs Georgina the head now” she said and turned to John “Come back when you are in your right senses” she said and clapped for Georgina.Georgina smiled, bowing for them, she kept smiling her teeth out she gazed at Annie and smiled at her.“It's alright” she said as she stopped them.The room had fallen eerily silent. A sense of unease crawled over the crowd as Georgina's voice cut through the quiet like a razor-sharp blade. "I am afraid you are cheering for the wrong person,I am not the one you people should cheer for" she said, her voice low yet commanding. The air in the conference room thickened with tension. Faces once lit with admiration for John now turned to Georgina, eyes narrowing, trying to understand what had just happened.The applause died. John’s confident smile wavered, confusion clouding his features. As he opened his mouth to say something, the door behind him swung open
