Saved To Be A Substitute Lost And Found
Author's POV. Alexander and Lillian stepped onto the shore, a yacht waiting for them."Why a yacht?" Lillian asked, her eyebrows raised in a mixture of disbelief and surprise. "We aren't going to reach there on time.""Have you been on a yacht before?" Alexander asked, but quickly realized his question was unnecessary."No," Lillian replied, shaking her head."You didn't have to answer that, sorry," Alexander apologized, lowering his gaze."You always apologize for the most common things. You just asked a question, there's nothing to feel bad about. I have never been on a yacht, and I'm definitely not the only one in the world who hasn't," she replied sarcastically, almost rolling her eyes."That's true," his lips curled into a smile and he held her hand."You own it right?" Lillian asked smiling as they reached the luxurious yacht."Yes, I own it," Alexander nodded. "I had it brought because the helicopter is undergoing maintenance, and I wanted to spend more time with you before me

Author's POV."Jessica..." Alexander's voice trembled this time, his eyes widened in shock at the sight of an exact replica of me.I was just as stunned. This woman looked exactly like me, the same shape, the exact color of hair and eyes. Even her voice was nearly identical to mine.But wasn't she supposed to be dead. How was she here? Why did she suddenly appear? "My love," Jessica said, her eyes glinting with evident happiness as she rose to her feet. "I've missed you so much. It's been so long."She began walking toward him, her steps slow and deliberate. Alexander slowly shifted his gaze to me, his stare intense.I wondered what was running through his mind. Was he happy that the woman he first loved was here? Was he angry about the mistake he had made?Would he kiss her in front of me to welcome her? Would he instantly run into her arms and dump me? Did his promise to stick with me and even to the point of eloping if things went wrong still mean anything?Was his heart racing a

Lillian's POV. "Lillian, it's not like that," Alexander muttered, leaning closer. "I'm just surprised by everything. I'm not thinking straight right now, and I don't know what to do. I don't want to hurt you, but I don't want to hurt...""You don't want to hurt Jessica either," I sniffled. "I know I should understand you by now, but the selfish part of me wished you would choose me without hesitation.""Lily, this is all so confusing to me," Alexander admitted, his bewilderment evident. "I'm in a dilemma. I don't know how or what to feel about this situation. My feelings are all over the place."Fresh tears streamed down my cheeks at his words. I couldn't blame him for being confused. I was in a tight spot too. I seemed selfish to everyone for taking Jessica's place so easily, but I also wanted to stay with Alexander.I loved him. It would be hard to let go after everything we had been through together. I just couldn't imagine my life without him. "I remember my promise to you," he

Lillian's POV."Jessica, don't talk to her that way," Alexander finally spoke, shifting his gaze to her.But it didn't matter if he said anything or not. It was evident that I had no place in this home, and it would be better if I left.My life with Alexander had become so complicated and filled with lies over time. A good relationship shouldn't be built on things like that."Alexander, can you stop defending her?" Jessica snapped, turning her irritated gaze to me. "What are you waiting for? Leave already!""I came here to make sure that happens," Gianna said loudly, stepping into the mansion."I also came as well," Mrs. McQueen's voice chimed from behind. As she walked through the door, her gaze was filled with disgust."Why are you still here?" Gianna asked me directly, walking up to me. "Haven't you done enough damage by deceiving everyone? Have you no ounce of shame?" she questioned, shooting daggers with her eyes. "You heard what my daughter went through and you're still trying

Lillian's POV. "Ma'am, I'm sorry but all the rooms have been booked," the receptionist said to me."I let out a sigh of disappointment. This was the second hotel I had been to. The first one told me the same thing. It seemed like everything was working against me tonight."Isn't there somewhere else I can sleep?" I inquired, my voice low, unwilling to receive any judgmental looks."I didn't get that, Ma'am," the receptionist said, looking confused.I didn't know if her confused look was genuine or if she just wanted to mock me."I asked if you had a room or somewhere in the hotel that I could stay for the night. I'm a bit desperate right now and it's so late already," I muttered, my voice straining with exhaustion."I would have loved to help you, but there is no other space available ma'am. I could direct you to another hotel nearby where you might find a place to sleep," she said, her tone polite but firm. I lowered my gaze to my weak legs, wondering if I could walk any further.

Lillian's POV."Please..." he pleaded, the softness of his voice making my heart skip a beat."Fine," I relented, gently removing his hand from my face.I knew it was a mistake to succumb to such temptation, but what could I do? I didn't have many options. I would just let him help me tonight, and figure a solution tomorrow. "Finally," he sighed, his voice sounding relieved. "I thought of carrying you into my car, and taking you away if you had still refused my offer.""That's a crazy thought. I would have bitten off your ear," I retorted, trying to sound stern but failing miserably. "Ow, that was brutal," Alexander teased, reaching for his ear like it hurt.I couldn't believe we were acting like we were still couples. I had to become serious and show him that I wasn't willing to be his side piece.It seemed like he was actively pursuing me now, and even if he truly cared, the pressure from his parents, Jessica's parents, and Jessica would change everything. I didn't want to get my

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

Lillian's POV.A month later. “How many times are you going to watch that?” Alexander laughed, sitting beside me. “As many times as possible,” I replied, bursting into laughter. 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. Dad had divorced Gianna, and left her with nothing, while he just left a bit of money for Jessica and disowned her. Since he found out that I was his real daughter, he had been more than sweet to me and our relationship had gotten so much better with time. Meanwhile Mrs. McQueen, though kept at arms length, has been so supportive through this pregnancy. She would call me sometimes and give me some tips on how to eat right and stay healthy. Her husband was also remorseful about his harsh judgment but was too bu

Author's POV. Days later, Jessica went to the same hospital that she had been going to for her check up. As she stepped into the building, she touched her face and winced a little in pain. “Fuck,” She cursed. She walked over to an office and slipped in without knocking. 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

Author's POV. Lillian lifted her head from the sink and looked, really looked at Mrs McQueen. 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

He licked the chocolate stain, licking his way to a nipple and curled his tongue around it.My hands went high above my head, and he tossed the empty chocolate wrapper behind him, holding my hands in place. 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. "I got you," he whispered, his hot breath sending chills all over me. He started walking backwards with me attached to him, scattering kisses all over my neck.When he got to the bed, he sat on it, lifting me and placed me across his hips. 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. "When I think of your belly round with my baby,

Lillian's POV. In the taxi, I was still thinking about my near encounter with Jessica. She wouldn't know why I was in the hospital but I didn't want her suspecting anything. 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. I can never too busy for my freckles. Have you had something to eat? If not, you can ask the chef to make you something."I glanced at the meal plan chart Doctor Malcolm had

He had been excited when he left the room before but now, he wasn't."Why was the lawyer calling, Alex?" I inquired. He suddenly remembered he was not alone in the room, forcing himself to smile. 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. Let's finish up with Doctor Malcolm first," Alexander replied, keeping me in suspense. "Okay. Sit down then." I still kept my eyes on him, unable to relax when I knew he was hiding something from me."So, Doctor, how soon can she get registered for antenatal classes?" Alex asked and the good doctor laughed at his eagerness."You both just found out that you are expecting a child. Don't be in a hurry to get her registered for anything, Mr McQueen.

He summed it up as them being jealous of him."Dustin, you have a visitor," the warden said, looking down his nose at him. Dustin already knew it was his lawyer and his hope was alive again. He was updated on the official date of his court hearing and reminded to be of good behavior despite being brutalized by inmates. Either his lawyer didn't like him or was scared of him because he refused to look him in the eye when speaking."I'll behave, anything to get me out of this rotten hole.

Come on, let's rinse your mouth."He flushed the toilet first and led her to the sink. She cupped her hands under the running water, rinsed out her mouth and washed her face. She regained some strength and could stand on her own without his help."Baby, you scared the shit out of me. Are you okay now? Do you need anything?""I need. . .I need to sit down."

She ran to her desk and pushed everything off, anger welling up within her.She flung a notebook at the wall, searching for a way to get rid of her anger."It's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair," she kept repeating, tearing her room apart until something gave way within her. Anger turned into sadness, disappointment turned to despair and she fell on her knees, shedding tears into her hands."That used to be me. I used to be the only one Alexander had eyes for.
