"Her heart is not beating any more doctor," a lady in a short white dress said anxiously "check her pulse" the doctor yelled Even after checking her pulse, he realized that there was no sign of movement from the girl lying on the bed. He had no idea what to do right now because the girl lying on the bed is not just anyone but the great 'Liliana Anderson' the 'ice Queen' as she was popularly known by. A woman that's always see expressionless, never see smiling and all now been killed by food poisoning was another thing, who had the gut to do such a thing like this.Her family is just standing outside, what will tell them and how? This was the first time in history he does know how to announce the death of a patient, to the patient's family. When he stepped out of the room her family immediately got up and walked up to the doctor as well "What happened to my sister? A girl that looks the same age as Lilianna asked anxiously "How is my daughter " both her parent asked. "Well am mm
This was never the reaction he was expecting, he thought they would be sad, cry, and all not just sat 'oh' it quite obvious they wanted him dead, he just left them there to attend to another patient. Meanwhile, in another hospital, a woman in her late 40's was on her knees pleading with the doctors to treat her daughter. "Please doctor I beg of you, perform the surgery, I promise to pay the bills once the treatment is done" she pleaded with tears running down her cheeks. "Ma'am you need to pay the bills before we start treatment," said the doctor. "Please, I will pay, please," said the woman. While they were talking a nurse came out of one of the rooms and whispered something to the doctor's ear. Then the doctor turned to the woman and said "Ma'am am sorry to inform you that your daughter is dead". "No no no no, this can't happen, my Lily, my lily is fine, yes she is fine"
Lilly POV My thoughts were interrupted with the sudden bang on the door, I looked up and saw the doctor walking towards me. "Are you ok, Miss Anderson?" He asked with a shaking voice. Is he scared of me? Why was he scared? Then again, the previous owner of this body was a scary being who does feel pain, but now that I am here, thereof will be some changes. Back to the present. "Am fine?" I told him blankly, I wanted to smile, but it seems this body doesn't express any emotion whatsoever, I don't even feel anything when the nurse injected me. It's weird. How can someone feel nothing, not even pain or anger nor happiness "Where are they?" I asked the doctor eventually "Who?" Why was he acting dumb? Doesn't he know that I was asking about Lillianna annoying family members. "You know who?" I answered him blankly. "Oh, I am so sorry, I may have informed them that you were dead. They went home to organize a press conference to announce your death to the w
Lily POV I kept staring at my reflection on the mirror inside the hospital bathroom, I was amazed by my new look, although I was beautiful before the reborn, but not this much the girl in the mirror was flawless and perfect. According to what the doctor told me, I know by now that the Anderson's must have declared me dead, The Anderson family is filled with actors and pretenders. How were they even able to fool Lilianna for such a long time. Well, a girl with no emotion may not understand it as well. Lilianna's father was just as cruel as mine they body has no empathy for mankind, I can't imagine what she went through as a child, according to the memories obtained from the previous owner of this body. Lilianna's mother, Evelyn, married James (Mr. Anderson) when he had nothing. Anderson Empire was previously known as Altee group of company. Evelyn was the only child of her parent which makes her the heiress to her father's empire, she took over when she graduated colle
Time they say heals all woundes Time cures Time changes, But Liliana and I are both stuck in time, I tried to be normal for the sake of my mother, where as Lilianna feels nothing she was just a empty human whom have been deprived the right to live a normal life. She was stuck in time right from birth, and I was stuck in time pleasing my mother without considering my own emotions. This body may feel nothing but my soul feels all the emotion buckled up for years in me and now that this body belongs to me and i want a second chance to live a normal life i need this body to feel. I will find a way to make this body feel my own very emotion and try to be happy this time around. Evelyn family try to take Lilianna away so she could grow up in a favorable and good environment so it would increase her mental health and perhaps help create some emotions in her, but Evelyn last wish was to not deprive her husband the memories of her, not knowing the man she was defending on her dea
Chole Pov I still can't believe the call i received right now was from my boss. It is quite unbelievable. When i read about her death on social media, i was broken from within, although my boss is special in her own way and amazing. She still the only person we believe in my capability. She may not know how to express and feel, but she is a kind soul, I remember when I first met her, I was just a nerd with no confident nor-income but she changed my life. During the interview, she asked me if I was willing to change for the better cause she doesn't need an assistant with low self-esteem. She taught me how to be brave, She taught me how to be expressive, She taught me how to believe in myself, even though she kept telling me that whatever I have become now is by my own doing but I knew deep down I'm nothing without her, know that she was alive and kicking is enough for me. I got up and grab my car keys and go straight to the hospital, when I got to the hospital I asked wh
"When is the board meeting for the ceo replacement take place?" i asked, This is all new to me, so as the fight for power. I know you must be wondering how I managed to have the same expression as Lilianna and so confident as her and all, but this is me , this has always been who I was. I have never smiled at any other human before than my mother, and right now, I need to learn how to smile at people. " well ma'am due to the falling shares since yesterday because of your fake death. Many investors are pulling in out, and the meeting will be held tomorrow." "Good, buy some shares since the price are dropping, it will be useful later on, and i don't mind if you blackmail or threaten them." "I know, boss, your order shall be carried out properly." "Good. Also, I want you to make sure all the stakeholders are against my dad I feel weird calling such a dispeakable, my father, i hate all fathers, but this body doesn't. "yes boss" " If you do your job properly, your salary ma
"Mr. Anderson, you should know that you are no longer the biggest shareholder. " "Wait, what!" I yelled even before i could stop myself. It was quite unbelievable. After acquiring Lilianna shares, i should be the biggest shareholder. What the hell is going on right now. "Yes, it's true, Mr. Anderson" "That's impossible! if we are to include my late daughter shares, I should have about 55% of the company shares" That how it should have been. So i don't get where this problem is arising from right now. There is no way i will let all my effort go in vain after everything i went through to get here. " Someone else has acquired your daughter shares and also bought Mr. Gabriel shares, which made him or her the biggest shareholders right now," 'No no no no this can't be happening.' i kept chanting in my mind. " Impossible! my sister, my sister, left those shares for Father, and no one else has any right to it other than him. " Helena shouted I know my baby girl is pissed off right
A thick, suffocating silence.Evelyn let out a shaky breath, nodding slowly, tears still dripping down her chin. “You are really my Lilly,” she choked out. “Oh my God.” She covered her mouth with both hands, her body shaking. “No one else knew. It was just us. Just me and you.”Lilly’s lips parted, but no words came out.Ray, however, took a sharp step back. His head spun.What the hell was happening?A heavy silence pressed down on the room like a thick fog, suffocating, unrelenting.Mitchell leaned back slightly, exhaling through her nose. Her sharp eyes flickered between Evelyn and Lilly before she gave a slow nod.“With the way she told that story, the details, the raw emotion…” Mitchell shook her head. “It’s obvious she’s telling the truth. Someone who wasn’t there wouldn’t have known all that.”Evelyn’s breath hitched, fresh tears sliding down her already damp cheeks. She pressed a trembling hand to her mouth, barely able to contain the sob threatening to break free.“I had two
But before he could finish, Lilly flinched and slapped his hand away.“Stop touching me,” she said, her voice colder than he expected.Ray blinked, taken aback. “Lilly…”She took a step back, shaking her head. “I just—I need to go for a walk right now.”Ray frowned, his gut twisting uneasily. “Baby, come on, don’t do this—”But Lilly was already turning away.Evelyn’s voice, soft yet firm, stopped her in her tracks.“Liliana.”Lilly closed her eyes briefly at the sound of her full name, inhaling sharply before turning back.Evelyn stepped closer, her gaze heavy with something unreadable. “Baby, look into my eyes and tell me…” Her voice wavered slightly. “What happened on your tenth birthday?”Lilly frowned. “What?”“If you’re really my Lilly,” Evelyn said, her voice thick with emotion, “tell me what happened that day.”Lilly’s chest tightened. She let out a dry, humorless laugh. “Really now, Mother?”Evelyn didn’t answer.Lilly looked away, her fingers curling into fists at her sides.
Lilly’s breathing was uneven, her hands trembling at her sides. The frustration, the helplessness, the sheer disbelief on everyone’s faces—it was suffocating.But Ray’s reaction? That cut the deepest.She looked at him, her eyes dark with hurt. “Are you seriously using this as an excuse to make me forget about you cheating on me?” she demanded, her voice raw with emotion.Ray’s eyes widened in shock. “What?” His voice cracked slightly, but then his expression twisted into something both pained and frustrated. “Baby, what the hell are you talking about?”Lilly took a shaky step forward, her hands clenched into fists. “You don’t believe me,” she choked out. “You think I’m insane. So what’s next, huh? You’ll start looking for comfort somewhere else? Someone more stable?”Ray’s chest tightened.How the hell had things gotten to this point?“Wifey, I didn’t cheat on you,” he said, his voice low but desperate. He took a step closer, but Lilly took one back, and it was like a knife twisting
Ray’s heart pounded so violently against his ribs that he thought it might break through his chest. His hands curled into fists at his sides as his mind struggled to wrap around what he had just heard.No.No, this wasn’t happening.It couldn’t be happening.“So you’re telling me—” His voice was dangerously low at first, almost eerily calm. But then, all at once, the dam broke.“You’re telling me that you’re not my wife?!” Ray’s voice shot up, raw with disbelief and something dangerously close to panic. His eyes burned into Lilly as though searching for any sign that she was joking, that this was some cruel, twisted prank.But Lilly didn’t waver.Ray let out a harsh, humorless laugh. “Baby girl, are you sure you’re alright?” His jaw clenched so tightly it ached. “Because none of this shit makes any sense!” He ran a frustrated hand through his hair, pacing back and forth like a man trying to outrun his own thoughts.“Lilly and Liliana are the same person!” he snapped, turning back to h
Evelyn felt the world tilt beneath her feet. Her breath came in short, sharp gasps as her mind raced, struggling to process the words that had just left Lilly’s mouth.What does she mean by ‘I raised her’? Evelyn’s fingers trembled as she clutched at her dress, her heartbeat thundering in her ears. My Lilly died. I buried her. The memory flashed in her mind like a cruel ghost—the small, lifeless body, the burial, the grief that had consumed her. I buried her. My baby is dead.Her throat closed up, panic clawing at her chest. What the fuck is going on?Her eyes locked onto Lilly, searching for a lie, for some twisted explanation. She said she’s Lilly… not Liliana. How is that even possible? Evelyn’s mind spiraled further. Is she trying to claim her twin’s identity? Is this one of the side effects of what David DeLuka did to her?The room felt like it was closing in on her.“No…” she whispered, shaking her head, her hands curling into fists. “No, this isn’t possible.”But Lilly’s gaze d
Liliana’s voice wavered, but her anger burned steady. “What about the girl who grew up feeling unwanted?” she demanded, her hands trembling at her sides. “Do you have any idea what it’s like to be your daughter? To live a life where love was a distant dream?” Her breath hitched, her throat tightening. “Liliana’s life was miserable. Mine was too, growing up with you.”Evelyn flinched, her lips parting in a silent protest, but Liliana didn’t give her the chance to speak.“You said you were trying to protect me,” she continued, her voice thick with emotion, “but your protection felt more like a cage, Mother. Every single day, I felt trapped, suffocated by the life you built around me. I was always seeking, always pleading for freedom, even when I knew it was impossible.”Evelyn’s eyes shimmered with unshed tears, her expression contorted with guilt and confusion. “I—I only wanted to keep you safe…” she whispered.Liliana let out a bitter laugh, shaking her head. “Safe?” she spat. “You ca
Liliana’s breath caught, and she took an involuntary step back. “So you didn’t see her—my twin—after that? You didn’t even try to stop him?”Evelyn shook her head frantically, tears spilling down her face. Her shoulders trembled as she clutched her arms, her entire body wracked with guilt. Perhaps she was too caught up in her emotions to notice that Lilly was referring to someone else, her words laced with an underlying recognition that she herself hadn’t fully grasped yet.“I tried, Liliana,” Evelyn choked out. “I begged him to tell me where she was. But he wouldn’t answer. He just kept saying it was necessary, that I wouldn’t understand. And then he disappeared.” She sucked in a shaky breath, her voice barely above a whisper. “He left me alone. With no way to find him. No way to find her.”The air in the room felt suffocating. Lilly’s nails dug into her palms, her hands clenched into tight fists at her sides. She was shaking, fury and betrayal crashing over her in violent waves.“Yo
Lily felt like her Liliana entire existence was a sham. She had been living a lie, dead believing in a lie and the truth was only now beginning to unravel. The man who had tormented her, whom she thought was her father, was actually not her biological parent. It was a shocking revelation, and she couldn't wrap her head around it. How could this be? How could her whole life be a fabrication?As she grappled with these questions, Lily's emotions were in turmoil. She felt like she was vibrating with anger and frustration, and she couldn't seem to calm down. Her existence, her identity, everything she thought she knew about herself was a lie.And to make matters more complicated, she had just discovered that she had a twin sister, who was somehow seven years older than her. It didn't make sense - how could two people be twins, yet be born at different times? It was a mind-bending concept, and Lily was desperate for answers.She hoped that the explanation she was about to receive would be
Evelyn’s voice broke as she began, her trembling hands gripping the edges of the chair she sat on. She couldn’t meet Liliana’s eyes. Her gaze seemed fixed somewhere in the distance, as if reliving the memories she was about to unveil.“When I found out I was pregnant, I was overjoyed,” she began, her tone soft and uneven, every word weighted with emotion. “It felt like my whole world had fallen into place. I was carrying a piece of the love I shared with your father—your father, Liliana. He was my anchor, my safe haven.”Her lips quivered as a small, bittersweet smile appeared, only to disappear almost immediately. “I still remember the tears on his face when I told him. He held me so tightly, like he was trying to hold on to the moment forever. We had so many dreams, plans to build a home, a family. We talked about the little things—what color the nursery would be, what names we’d pick. Life felt… perfect.”Her voice cracked, and she brought a trembling hand to her face, swiping away
