Chloe stepped into her car, starting the engine as she mentally prepared for the drive to Jerry’s house. She had to deliver some documents and assist with investigating Felix’s Aunt Ava, as ordered by her boss. The past three months had been filled with surprises, but the biggest one was the transformation in her boss. A woman who once didn’t care about any man now seemed entirely enmeshed with a Manchester, practically handing her empire over to him on a silver platter.*What if he betrays her?* Chloe thought, her fingers tightening on the steering wheel. *Men can’t be trusted with power, especially not when they already have plenty of their own.* Still, she had to trust her boss’s judgment. She had never made a wrong business decision before, and Chloe could only hope this wouldn’t be the first.As she checked her Google Maps, making sure she was heading in the right direction, the thought of seeing Jerry made her grimace. He made her skin crawl with the way he stared at her—like he
Chapter 93“Gosh! My phone has been ringing nonstop, it’s quite frustrating,” Lilly said with her voice sounds like she just yelled, tossing her phone onto the couch in a rare outburst.Ray glanced up from his stack of documents, surprised by her sudden display of anger. He had never seen her showing any emotions, except for the moments when they were intimate. Normally, Lilly was composed, almost detached, but seeing her express real frustration made her seem more human—more relatable. He found it cute and sexy. This was the woman carrying his child, and that realization stirred something deep in him. Their baby was already having an effect on her, and he loved watching her change, becoming more raw and vulnerable."It's Anderson, isn't it?" Ray asked, though he already knew the answer. He set his papers aside and moved closer to her. Lilly sighed heavily, rubbing her temples. “Yes, the press. And board members. Andresin. Everyone’s got something to say, and it’s exhausting.”It had
"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
