Chapter 90

Adrianna's POV

Fredrick had not said anything about the pending issue about my family. I didn't know if he was doing any research or if he was helping me.

He said he was going to help me but I didn't know if he was doing just that. I was becoming restless day by day just to know the real truth and to know if I was wrong or right.

I wanted to tell Frederick about my discussion with Steven but I decided not to. I had already given him a lot to do. I needed to give him space.

I was not the only thing in his life. He had other things to attend to. Things like work and the pack. I wasn't going to rush him, I would wait for him to tell me his findings.

After I took the kids to school, Frederick left for work after we exchanged goodbyes.

When Frederick left, I was on my way back inside when my phone began to ring. I wondered who was calling me as I struggled to get my phone from my purse.

When I eventually got it out, I saw it was my mother. I wasn't exactly excited to see her nam

I made my way to the kitchen to prepare a meal for myself.In the process of cooking the meal, I heard my phone ring. It was a call from an unknown number.The caller's ID wasn't shown, a private number was written there instead.I wondered who would use a private number to call me. I didn't like to answer an unknown number but the person was constantly calling.I fought with my mom just a few minutes ago, and I was already getting another call. At first, I thought it was my mother who was trying to call with another number but I figured she wasn't the one.If it was her, she would have stopped when she saw I wasn't answering.

    Chapter 92Adrianna's POVAfter Amelia hung up the phone, I thought of what she said. Amelia threatened my kids just because I didn't go along with her plan. She threatened them because I didn't leave Frederick. This was bizarre. She hurt Jackson in the past and still wanted to do it again.This only meant that she wanted to kill Jackson from the start. And she would have succeeded if Frederick hadn't stepped up and accepted them as his kids.After everything she has done to me ever since we knew each other, it wasn't enough for her. She didn't even apologize once for what she did to me.Even if she didn't want to apologize for what she did when we lived together, she should have at least apologized for hurting Jackson. But she didn't because she didn't care if he died.I hated the fact that she was my sister. I hated the fact I wasn't programmed to like her. I would have killed her on sight If I was She still wasn't satisfied; she wanted everything to herself. I wanted to cook a m

    Chapter 93Adrianna's POV Amelia kept on sending me threats. It had been one month since she started. She sends it to me constantly, though not every day.She never fails to remind me that she can do whatever she wants to do if I don't leave Frederick. One month had passed yet she hadn't done anything. That just confirmed that she was bluffing from the very beginning.I had stopped thinking about what she was saying weeks ago. I didn't let her get to me. There were times when I just switched off my phone so I wouldn't be able to see her messages.But I had to switch it on sooner or later since I had a job to go to. The school session was almost coming to an end. I was really happy because I could have some moment of rest. Taking the kids to school wasn't an easy thing to do. Throughout the month, Frederick taught me how to drive so it would be easy for me to take the kids to school.It became less stressful when I learned. I wasn't an expert yet, but I could drive through easy roa

He wasn't staying with his father. He was staying back at our house with my mom and Steven.“Hey, Adrianna.” He said.“ Hey, Steven. How is Jackson doing?” I asked, trying to sound calm.“He's doing fine.” He replied. “He is still shaken up by what happened yesterday, but he's holding up. We are taking good care of him.”I nodded even if he could not see me. “That's good. Has he said anything…about what happened yesterday?” I asked him.“Not much,” Steven said. “ He just keeps asking when he would see Hayley again. We've tried to reassure him that he'll see her again but he's always moody and talks to no one.”Hearing that Jackson was constantly asking about Hayley and that Steven had to keep giving excuses made my heart hurt. “It must be so hard for him,” I muttered.I was glad that Steven was

My expression softened as I saw her cry.No matter how she messed up, I couldn't stand to see her hurt the way she was. I moved closer to her. I pulled her into my embrace. “Oh, Adrianna, I'm sorry,” I said whispering.“ I didn't mean to make you feel bad. I was just frustrated that I couldn't find her. I was scared for her. I lost my cool, and I lashed out at you. That was wrong and I'm truly sorry.”She hugged me tightly. I felt a little bit relieved that she forgave me.“I know, Frederick. I know that you are scared. I am too. But we need to be there for each other, not argue with each other.” She said to me.I nodded holding her tighter. “You're right. I promise to do better.” I told her.“Everything I'm doing, Adrianna, every move I make, is to find Hayley. But it's really difficult.

Instead, he just focused on the road with a neutral expression.He should have known that I would be jealous. Wasn't it obvious? Didn't I make it obvious enough?I decided to remain quiet too.

I tried to brush it off, telling myself that being jealous was ridiculous, but it didn't help.I looked away, trying to focus on the kids but my eyes kept going back to them.Her hands were on his waist for too long. She was hugging him tight. I might have been exaggerating, but I felt the hug was too clingy and intimate.Who was this woman? And why was Frederick doing nothing about her? All these questions swirled through my head.I had no idea if Frederick had a friend or not. He never talked about it. All I knew was that he went to work and dealt with his pack problems.I didn't know what was going on there. Frederick reciprocated the hug without any argument. His hands were around her, holding her close with a smile.I watched them, feeling my jealousy increase. I couldn't believe my eyes. Why was Fr

    Chapter 113Adrianna's POVI almost burst into laughter at the sight of my father asking for forgiveness. “You're asking for forgiveness? You? After everything you've done, you're asking me to forgive you?You aren't even capable of apologizing to someone, let alone me. All these are just a trick. A trick to try and manipulate me again, but this time it isn't going to work.”I took another step closer to him.” You do not get to apologize now, not after all these years. You don't get to act like you care about me all of a sudden or you see me as a person.You had decades to make everything right, but you did nothing. All you did was like and manipulate me, Dad.” I said, furiously.“I can't even call you that because you aren't even my real dad.You are not sorry; you're just sorry you were caught. You are only sorry because I found out the truth.If I didn't come here to say all these, you wouldn't think about apologizing to me.” I walked back to my mom. “Can you at least tell me why

I knew he wouldn't think about that first because we have been through a lot lately. So, I wasn't expecting him to put the fact that Hayley was kidnapped aside and look for the truth about my parents.“What do you mean? What exactly did she say?” He asked.“She said I wasn't her real sister. My father and mother aren't my parents either. I was suspicious about this from th

I assumed it was Frederick since he said he would be right back and that he needed to get something.But I was wondering why he knocked when he could have just walked in. “You can come in,” I said, waiting for him to step in.The door opened, and I was surprised, more like shocked, to see Shawn and not Frederick.My smile faltered and I felt a little disappointed that it wasn't Frederick.
