Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 219. A Dinner Appointment
It was that scary realization Heidi hadn't come to terms with yet.If Lucas Harrison was serious about her, what difference would it make? Many things had changed already. The past wasn't the present, and the future might even be more complicated.Heidi's palm wandered to her abdomen and she kept it there, staring out of the window in a trance.“Ms. Olsen, your phone is ringing.” It wasn't until Isla called out to her that Heidi heard the ringing sound of her phone. Seeing that it was a call from the MXG Group, she held her breath, her heart beating uncomfortably.“This is it, Ms. Olsen…” Isla sounded downcast. “Mr. Jonas's assistant might be calling to notify us about the outcome of the meeting.”Isla spoke the thing in her mind. Heidi didn't expect it to be so soon.It hadn't even been up to an hour since they left the MXG Group.After hesitating for some seconds, she brazed up herself and answered the call while Isla stared at her nervously.“Hello, am I speaking with Ms. Olsen?”

Inside The Private Room.A round table was in the middle, decorated with a wide variety of delicacies; fine wine, tiramisu, prime ribeye steak, lobster bisque, and all sorts of dessert.Lucas patiently tapped his finger on the desk, his eyes fixed on the door. “Is she going to come?”His question incited a laugh from Killian who raised his cup of wine. “Shouldn't you be more worried about these foods going to waste?”Lucas glared at him. “Can you be serious for once?”“Buddy, I'm serious.” Killian defended. “If she doesn't show up, these delicious foods will go to waste. Imagine the number of hungry people in the world.”Lucas glanced at his wristwatch. “If Heidi doesn't show up, your assistant will lose his job.”“It hasn't gotten to that, Buddy-”“You might lose something valuable as well.”“Come on!” Killian gave him a look of disbelief. “In that case, I'll personally go and fetch her. You appear to value her more than our brotherhood.”Killian hadn't gotten to his feet when the la

“Heidi…” Lucas called out, his eyes following each of her uncomfortable movements as she shifted on her chair. “Look at me at least.”“What do you want, Mr. Harrison?” Heidi mumbled, not daring to glance up. “Can you stop calling me that?”“Stop calling you what?”“Well, you can call me by my name…” he suggested.Heidi's attention instantly turned to the food she'd shunned as the delicious aroma made her stomach grumble.The fact that they ordered some of her favorite foods wasn't helping matters. She hesitated, looking from her lap to the food, struggling to ignore its presence.“Are you hungry?” Lucas's chuckles resounded in her ears.Heidi sighed inside. She'd be damned to embarrass herself by saying yes. He didn't wait for her reply though. He took a plate and some utensils and served the dishes for her.“W-What are you doing?” Heidi asked, flabbergasted. “Trying to feed you.”“Huh?”Lucas took a portion of the salad coupled with grilled steak in a fork. He reached forward wit

So many thoughts bombarded Heidi's senses at once, fear and anxiousness clouding her mind.Before Lucas completed his words, she straightened up and pecked him on the lips.Using his momentary distraction to her advantage, she turned around, opened the door, and fled.“Ms. Olsen, you're finally out.”Heidi almost bumped into Isla in the hallway as she took to her heels. “Quick, let's get out of this place.”She grabbed Isla's hand and they hurried into the elevator. “What's wrong?” Isla patted her chest, taking in a deep breath. “Did Mr. Harrison do something to you?”“Forget about him.” Heidi flicked off the beads of sweat on her forehead. “By the way, are you hungry?”Because Heidi was hungry again as her stomach grumbled nonstop.Isla shook her head. “Mr. Jonas- I mean, Killian ordered some food for me. I ate while we were outside?”“Killian?” Heidi's brows furrowed.Isla blushed and looked down. “He told me to call him that.”Back Inside The Private Room…Lucas remained standing

…In The Next Morning.Heidi and Isla left the hotel, while Heidi made a phone call.“Merging both companies, Steve…” she sounded hesitant. “I thought that was your family's business.”“You are my family, Heidi,” said Steve from the other end. “To lessen the company's burden, while you're away I'll be the acting CEO.”“That's a hectic amount of work.” Heidi sighed. “I'll return to Phoenix City soon, please hold on.”“Is it Mr. Anderson again?” Isla asked after Heidi ended the call.Heidi nodded, her eyes flashing with worry. “Steve is working too hard.”“But no one can tell him to stop.” Isla sounded helpless. “Ms. Olsen, how does it feel to be chased by two powerful men?”“What do you think, Isla?” Heidi rubbed her forehead, staring out of the car's window.“Well, I would live every day in fear if I was in your shoes. Thank goodness, the war between Mr. Harrison and Mr. Anderson has ended before both men destroyed each other.”The car dropped them off at a mall. People walked in and

…At The MXG Group.Lucas barged into the President's office, his eyes stern. “The lawyer has left already? Why didn't you inform me?”Killian let out an exasperated. “If you stay another week in this city, you're gonna give me a heart attack, Lucas Harrison.”Lucas pulled out a chair across from him and sat down. “I told you to stall the lawyer.”“No, buddy. You left that part out,” Killian defended. “The AG Group's lawyer was in a haste. Right now, he must be back in Phoenix City.”“Which means Heidi will also leave soon if she hasn't yet,” Lucas grumbled.“Then you can follow her there and continue your love-chasing game.” Killian chuckled.“Do you think it's easy?” Lucas glowered. Finding Heidi in Phoenix City was like finding a needle in a haystack. She was so close, yet far out of reach.She didn't unblock his contact, and she hadn't given him an answer…“I think I feel your pain.” Killian relaxed on his swivel chair. “Would like to know more about the soft petal she hangs out

The way he looked at her and the way he sounded made Tracy shiver under her skin. She swallowed a gulp and hesitantly nodded. “B-But she started it first-”Lucas stormed out of the hospital ward. Without a glance in Tracy's direction, Killian brought out his phone and also left, making a call. Tracy's heart burned with jealousy, her red eyes pinned on the door. She summoned the bodyguard and ordered him, “Make sure you keep following her. Don't let Heidi leave this city.”“Yes, Ma'am.” The bodyguard nodded, a confused look in his eyes.…At The Central City's Police Department.Lucas's car pulled over, making a screeching sound. He left the car and slammed the door behind, startling the driver.Walking inside the police department, his phone rang constantly inside his pants pocket, but he ignored it.“Where is Heidi?” He anxiously asked one of the policemen he walked into. “Which Heidi?” The policeman tilted his head.“Two ladies were brought here. One has dark hair, and the othe

Heidi wanted to believe that her ears were playing pranks on her. She checked the phone's screen to make sure it was Natalie speaking.“What loan are you speaking about?”“Aren't you aware of it?” Natalie asked. “I thought you were the one who signed those documents. A huge amount of money is missing from the finance department.”Heidi controlled herself from standing up due to the shock as she had almost forgotten she was inside a car. “Missing money?”“I asked Zach and he told me he wasn't the one who gave out the loans. You guys are the only ones capable of giving such commands. How did the money disappear-”A commotion came from the background Natalie was speaking, interrupting her. She cursed through the phone and said, “I'm sorry, Heidi. Let me handle something, I'll get back to you soon.”After hanging up, Heidi's lips parted and she felt speechless, her racing heart refusing to calm down.“Ms. Olsen…” Isla called her attention. “Is the Group in trouble?”“Don't know… I guess s

Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 445. Lasting for Eternity
Heidi sprang to a sitting position instantly, hearing the voice coming from the door. Dread washed over, and instinctively, she pulled her baby into her arms, her eyes darting around for any possible escape route. Heidi's first instinct was to flee, but to where?“Daddy?” Her daughter, on the other hand, jumped in excitement. “Hey, Mommy! It's Daddy! Daddy's here!”The door's handle shifted as someone juggled it from the outside. The sounds of knocking increased. “Heidi, are you inside?”Lost at what to do, Heidi just stared at the door, hugging her baby. Lucas barged into the room as he kicked the door open. He came to a screeching halt right in front of her, almost colliding into the bed. “Heidi…” as he whispered her name, Heidi's eyes locked into his. Except for the subtle changes; his once dark eyes now crystal clear, his stubbled jaws and overall demeanor, everything about him was the same. Tears pricked at her eyes and her heart hurt tremendously, wondering how she'd been a

All eyes turned to Harold, some blinking in shock and the rest widening. Heidi was confused too that of all people, Harold Olsen was the one who believed her.But from the look of guilt on his face and the way he sank onto the floor, literally kneeling in front of her, something was definitely fishy. “Heidi, please forgive me.”Heidi flinched when he held her knees. She stared at him, frowning. “Forgive you for what, Uncle?”“What did you do Dad!?” Zach hollered, his eyes filled with horror.The others looked fearful as well.Hanging his head, Harold shook it slowly. “I know saying this is probably too late. That night, Heidi didn't lose her child. When the police found her and Natalie, I orchestrated everything that happened after.”Several gasps spread across the room.Avoiding everyone's gaze, Harold said in a melancholic tone. “Having Heidi and Lucas Harrison together at that time meant the end of my sovereignty in this family. I did that to strip Heidi of her position- and…” He
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 443. The Only Person Who Believed Her
All eyes snapped in Heidi's direction.As her sobs echoed in the living room, they all but sprang to their feet. “Ha! How many times have I told you guys to stop mentioning Heidi's name?” Lilian cried out. “Now I'm seeing Heidi's face instead of this lady who appeared from nowhere with a child!”“Are you seeing Heidi? I'm also seeing her!” Natalie gasped. “That's impossible, right?”“Unless we're all out of our minds!” Kate cackled. “Because we all might be seeing Heidi.”Lifting her head, Heidi glanced at everyone's face. Her gaze stopped at her mother whose expression was deadly pale. “Th- This- This isn't Heidi. My Heidi's dead!”Shaking her head, the woman staggered backward. “Who the hell summoned Heidi's ghost?”Her mother fainted immediately after saying that, and the whole room was thrown into chaos. Heidi shot to her feet, holding her baby tight, racing to the spot. Under the family's watchful gazes, she sat beside her mother, shaking her. “Mum! I'm not a ghost! I've come

~During the car ride, Heidi's mind was muddled with different kinds of thoughts that brought worry to her heart. Her only solace was the little girl sitting beside her, holding her hand. “You're so quiet, Mommy…” she asked, “Is everything alright?”Heidi smiled, parting her hair to the side. “I'm okay, Baby.”“Where are we headed?” She murmured, glancing out of the car's window. “You brought me back, Mommy. Are you gonna drop me off at Nanny's place and disappear again.”Smoothing the tiny frown on the girl's forehead, Heidi's heart ached as she kept repeating that word. Disappearing hadn't be easy, and appearing again would definitely incure many repercussions. Heidi picked her up and sat her on her lap, hugging her. “I'd rather die than to disappear again.”Here she was, loathing death, something she'd actually been craving for the past three years. Her heart was an ocean of emotions and her tears never dried up, so much that her eyes were hurting. “Please, Mommy, stop crying

“For the first time, I'm agreeing with Jason's words.” Freya nodded. “Let's return her to the poor man, Heidi. She's not lost.”“Please don't let them take me away, Mommy.” The little girl hugged Heidi's arm. “I promise I'll be obedient. We'll stay in this paradise forever.”“Don't mind them, I won't let you go.” Heidi patted her hair. She stared at Jason and Freya, communicating with her eyes. The two gave her crestfallen looks and sighed at the same time. That Night;Heidi rested on her bed, holding the baby close, and sniffing the familiar scent on her. Citrus mixed with lavender. The scent of the Harrisons Villa. A scent that only belonged to the man she loved. Whenever she thought of him in the past, she'd feel hate and remorse, but now… the thought of him brought fear to her heart, and a regret she couldn't deny. Beside her, the little girl shifted. She opened her sleepy eyes, her wide milky eyes blinking. “Why aren't you sleeping, Mommy?”“I just love staring at you.” H

From caressing the girl's hair, Heidi found herself drawing her close, wrapping her in a gentle embrace. “What's your name?” Uncertainty filling her heart, she asked in a hoarse voice.The little girl neither struggled nor made a sound of discomfort, she in fact snuggled deeper into Heidi's embrace. She murmured, “Nanny calls me Didi, but Daddy calls me Heidi.”Heidi shut her eyes, swallowing down a sudden lump in her throat. A soft laughter escaped her lips. “That's a beautiful name you have, Baby.”However, the little girl pulled away, furrowing her brows. “But my first Mommy dislikes it. She once argued with Daddy about it.”“Oh, is that so?” Sniffing back the tears threatening to burst out, Heidi forced a smile. “Why doesn't she like your name?”“Because she's a meanie. Nanny said she made my Mommy disappear.” The girl blew out a sigh, her tone gloomy. “But Daddy promised she won't bother us anymore.”Heidi didn't know where to keep her emotions. She just didn't want to cry in f

“A kid means no harm. Relax, Heidi.” Jason patted her shoulder. “That pilot must be her father.”Heidi sat on the couch. “Now let me get to work! I'll see to it that that man is taught a lesson for crossing my number one rule of this Island! No tourists are allowed with a helicopter!”As Jason matched out of the room, Freya snickered. “He's doing a bad job managing this place. Too bad none of us can be in charge.”Under the pretense of working for the AG Group and managing the resorts here, Jason had moved to the mystic Island to be with her. One coincidence led to the guy clinging onto her.Driven by curiosity, he'd wandered into this cabin on a particular day, which was rumored to be haunted, and that was how he found her and Freya. Wondering if Jason was going to send the father and daughter back even though she didn't like that idea, Heidi carried on with her day, taking a walk down the empty beach separated from the resort’s area. The Island ahead was like an abandoned old ca

… Waking up the next morning to a foreboding feeling in her chest was enough sign that her peaceful days on this Island were over. The moment she opened her eyes, someone hugged her. “What am I gonna do with you, Heidi…” Freya murmured. “An emotional outburst can cause you a second heart attack, and that will be the end of us. Our days of hiding here will be over… we'll need to go to any nearby city for your treatment, and the police won't have mercy once they catch me.”Heidi sighed inside. Did she faint last night? Her only cure was ultimate happiness, something she doubted she was ever going to find on this Island or anywhere in this world. “If I have a heart attack someday, don't bother yourself, Freya… let me die and-”“Please, Heidi… stop it,” Freya whispered. “How dare you wish death upon yourself? You're the nicest person I've ever met; I fell for a villain and almost let him slip away, I lost my job and was about to lose my life but you saved me even though we never kne
