11. Billionaire To The Rescue

Esmeralda's POV

I couldn't feel anything other than the void of sadness and the heart shredding feeling after what Killian had said to me. He had treated me like a pile of trash, throwing me out of his room like I was worthless. I cried so hard I could hardly breathe, my senses were failing me and I felt a frailty in my bones and body.

I was too weak. He made me weak. He made me too weak with his words. It was the same with Mikel. He had rejected me and I am left all alone. Even the woman I grew to love as a mother treated me like a monster and she sent me away from her life like the years I had spent with he as her daughter didn't mean a thing, like she never truly cared for me.

Maybe she never really did and I was just something she used to gain merits in life. Bringing in an orphan and showing her care and love, pretending to love me so she would look good in the eyes of the public. Everything had been fake, the love I received from her was fake, the life I had been living was fake
