Lillian's POV.

I didn't know why I jumped straight to that assumption, but if she didn't have kidney issues again, then why would she be in the hospital? She would be foolishly trying to help that monster out of jail instead. Besides, the way her face paled in surprise confirmed my suspicion.

"I thought Dustin got you a new kidney?" I muttered, crossing my arms over my chest. "What happened again?" I asked, unconcerned, but curious.

"Oh, I see," I nodded, my lips curving into a wicked smile. "You couldn't get my magical kidney. The one that was supposed to preserve your life. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Such a pity."

Maureen looked horrified at my reaction. But what did she expect? Did she think I would feel sorry for her end wish for Jesus Christ to heal her? How stupid was she?

"What's with that stupid smile on your face?" she cried out, tears slipping down her cheeks.

"What's wrong with the smile on my face?" I retorted. "Shouldn't i be happy that you're finally getting what you deserve? I mea

    Author's POV. Dustin was shaking in his cell. He had been locked with a few more criminals and they had been bullying him. "When will the cops take you to the main prison?" one of them asked, pulling closer to him. Dustin cringed and tried to move away, but his inmate grabbed his arm, pulling him back. "Where do you think you're going without answering my question?" he snarled, smacking the back of Dustin's head. "Why are you being so rude? Do you think I'm one of the employees in that stupid company of yours?" Dustin shook his head, his body shivering, "No...no." "Good," His inmate said with a sheepish grin. "Why haven't the cops come to take you like the others? And apart from the fraud case you're involved with, what other crimes are you here for?" "I'm not a fraud—" his words got interrupted by a sudden slap on his cheek. Dustin teared up as his lips quivered out silent sobs. "Why did they bring these degenerates here?" he cried inwardly. "Even if there wasn't eno

    Author's POV.A sly smile appeared on Jessica's lips. She knew how soft Alexander could be. She also knew how to get him when she wanted."Are you sure you want to do better, or you're just saying it so I won't get dramatic again?" Jessica smirked, almost rolling her eyes.Before she turned to Alexander, the smug look on her face vanished and was replaced with a feigned sad expression. "I'm saying it because I don't truly want to treat you this way," Alexander said, his voice laced with sincerity. "I don't want to see you hurt or in pain.""So, you're treating me this way because you pity me?" she lifted her brows, setting a bait for him. "No," Alexander shook his head, but deep inside that was what he felt for her. He couldn't shake off the feeling that he didn't love her as much as he did before. He was happy that she returned and escaped that awful life, but apart from that, he felt nothing else. "Are you sure, Alexander?" Jessica asked, her voice low and calculating. "Are you

    Author's POV.As they got to the mansion, Alexander removed his hand from Jessica's grip."I'll head upstairs and have a shower before coming back down for breakfast. I feel a bit sweaty," Alexander muttered, using that excuse to get away from her.He rushed upstairs and took off his clothes. He glanced at the painting of Lillian, and his heart raced wildly in his chest."I don't know what I'm doing anymore," Alexander sighed, walking over to the painting. "I promised her that I would never leave her side, and we would elope together. I just broke that promise without even fighting to fulfill it.""But how can I fight in this situation? She seemed to have given up on us, or rather unwilling to be the other woman," Alexander muttered, tracing his finger over Lillian's lips in the painting."I miss the softness of her lips," Alexander whispered, licking his lips. "It's so different and relishing. I also miss her taste. There's never a time when she doesn't taste delicious. She just gets

She came for a purpose, and she was going to fulfill it."I'm sorry for being so intrusive, but I need to have my accounts unfrozen by Alexander. I'm not here to see him for anything else" Lillian said, hoping she would understand. "I know why you're upset, and I would be enraged if I were in your shoes, but I need you to please let me talk to him," she added, her tone considerate."Shut up!" Jessica shunned her. "You're nothing but a golddigger. Have you no shame at all? Imagine not having an income of your own as a grown woman. Such a disgrace to womanhood."Lillian felt so insulted by her words but saw no point in fighting with her. She just needed to see Alexander and get things sorted out.She was already looking for a job, and one seemed to be more promising than the others.

    Author's POV. "How could you do this to her?" Alexander yelled, glancing at Lillian, who was on the couch. Alexander, upon his arrival, saw Lillian lying on the floor, unconscious and pale. He was stunned and baffled by the sight. He carried her into his car, then took her into the mansion. He suspected that it had something to do with Jessica. The current guilty look on her face confirmed his suspicion. "What did you do to her?" Alexander demanded, his rage evident. Jessica was a bit taken aback by how he kept yelling at her. This wasn't the Alexander she knew. This man was completely different, driven by another force, which was not the love for her. "Jessica!" She flinched, wondering the right words to say, in order not to upset him some more. "Jessica, how could you do this? There are bruises all over her body. What is wrong with you?" he queried, wondering how Jessica could be so awful.Jessica did not want to lose face so she yelled back, "How did you know that I did tha

Her mother was her only hope in getting rid of Lillian without a trace,but now she seemed hesitant?"What do you mean by that?" Jessica demanded, frowning deeply. "Your father is being suspicious," Gianna replied, her voice wary. "He asked if I knew Lillian or if she could be your twin." "What did you tell him?" Jessica's brows furrowed in concern. "I told him that I didn't understand what was happening, but promised to look into it," Gianna said, letting out a sigh. "I might just make up a lie that she was stolen at birth, but it might backfire and give her an advantage over us," Gianna said her voice laced with worry. Jessica also became worried at her father's curiosity about the situation. She just hoped he would back down and not have anything investigated. "But how am I going to handle her going after A

    Author's POV.Jessica inhaled sharply and walked to her room. Upon entering, she grabbed her phone from the bed before sinking into it.She swiped a pillow below her head, making herself comfortable as she searched for a good drug that could get Alexander under her control for a while until she achieved her aim.Although she had no desire to be a mother, Jessica was convinced that getting pregnant would mark a turning point in her relationship with Alexander. Alexander always had a soft spot for kids. She would be the center of attraction."Would it be wise to drug him with something that would make him unconscious or something that would make him aroused?" Jessica thought, biting her bottom lip mischievously. "There is no fun in fucking an unconscious body. I think giving him an aphrodisiac would be best."Jessica rubbed her thighs against each other, closing her eyes in imaginary pleasure."This is going to be more exciting than playing the supportive partner," Jessica smirked.

I was watching a video of Jessica and her mother confessing everything they had done before disappearing. That was what they had to do, so Alexander wouldn't press charges against them. They knew they had no chance against especially since, Dad, as I called him now, wouldn't be able to help them.

In a few hours, she slipped out as if nothing had happened. She touched her face again and there was no pain anymore. This discovery made a smile appear on her lips. As she headed to the parking lot, she pulled out her phone to call her mother. “Hello?” Sha muttered as her mother answered. “How was it?” Her mother asked. “Ma, everything went well,” Jessica smiled, getting into her car. “Are you sure? Is there any pain left? Do you want to go abroad again?’ Mrs Sinclair inquired, her voice tinged with worry.“Ma, I'm trying to get Alexander back and returning to Singapore isn't something I want to do. Why do you give the worse ideas?” Jessica gritted, closing her car door and turning on the engine. “I just gave

She could not understand how a loving gentleman like Alexander had been born by such a bitter mother."What? Why are you staring at me like that?" Mrs McQueen snarled, hands perched on her waist. "I don't know if you know this but Alexander really loves you. He respects you too as his mother but I don't think you love or respect anyone but yourself. You are trying to ruin his happiness with your own hands," Lillian said. "What happiness? Do you think life with someone like you is happiness? Alexander will be miserable if he gets married to you and he will regret choosing you over me," Mrs McQueen accused. Lillian leaned against the wall, suddenly realizing what the matter was all along."You are jealous. That's it, right? You don't even care about Jessica, not really. You are jealous of how much Alexander loves me and you get afraid everytime he considers my feelings before your own." Lil

I arched my back, moaning when he sucked on me lavishly."Alex. . .the bed. . .I can't. . ." Even with him holding me up, my knees were beginning to shake.

He didn't break concentration, continuing to tease me while dragging the rest of the teddy down to my waist."My baby is going to have a baby," he said, drawing the leftover chocolate on my chest down to my stomach.

Too much was at stake for me to be careless."We are here, Miss," the driver informed me and I alighted his taxi after paying him on the app. I sent a text to Alexander to let him know I was home and stretched out on the couch in the living room. Doctor Malcolm said stretching was good for me anyways. He also told me to exercise more and eat more healthy.Alexander called instead of texting back and I was already smiling even before I heard his voice."Hello, darling. How did your appointment go?""It was okay. You really didn't have to call, Alex. I know you are very busy." Yet I was smiling so hard my cheeks were hurting."Don't say that.

But I knew him well enough to know that it was not a real smile."It's good news actually but I'll tell you in the car.
