Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 357. Letting Others Suffer Because of Her
Lucas sprang up from his chair, hearing Heidi's words. “Tell me it's a joke,” he said, hoping she'd say yes. What else would it be apart from a prank? Maybe he didn't hear her right. With an exasperated voice, Heidi replied, “I said I'm in your company and the security refuses to let me in.”The phone almost slid off Lucas's hands, and his first instinct was to dart for the door. “You aren't joking?”“No.” She sighed. Lucas cursed under his breath. His hand gripping the phone, he murmured, “Give the phone to the security.”Seconds later, the wary voice of a security man sounded through the phone. “Mr. Harrison, a strange pregnant lady is here asking to see you. She won't even let us see her face.”So she had her face covered. Relieved by that, Lucas replied, “Lead her inside. Straight to my office through the private elevator.”“Right away, Mr. Harrison.”Lucas hung up the phone and paced in the office.“What's up, Buddy.” Killian was also on his feet. “You don't look good.”“Aman

Inside the largest hall of the GK Group…Cameras flashed, noises ripped through the atmosphere, and all eyes were fixed on the stage. The paparazzi occupied most of the chairs, with the Shareholders and other higher-ups sitting on the chairs lined up across the stage.Without waiting for the Group's President's arrival, they bombarded everyone with questions.“So is it true that the GK Group holds a special grudge against the AG Group?”“Once upon a time, the AG Group was one of the most powerful companies in Phoenix City before the GK Group rose to the top.”“Rumor has it that the heiress of the AG Group has once been married to Lucas Harrison, President of the GK Group. Was it a marriage of alliance between both families? Why did it end up in divorce?”“Some months ago, a heated battle took place between Lucas Harrison and Steve Anderson, Heidi Olsen’s current husband. There have been talks that Lucas Harrison vowed to punish his ex-wife and bring her family down. Is it true?”As t

Standing across from the stage was the woman in question. Jaws dropped and gasps broke out. A deafening silence descended after. She stared straight at him, her eyes filled with conviction. Lucas's heart sank and sank until he could no longer hear his heartbeat. One hand wrapped securely around her bump, she covered the distance between them. What she did next knocked the air out of him. Tugging at his necktie, she pulled him downward and kissed him under the hundred pairs of shocked eyes. The sounds of cameras clicking engulfed the large hall.Lucas returned to his senses only after she pulled away. Feeling lost and alarmed, his lips parted,“What's this for, Heidi?”She only smiled, sadness reflecting in her eyes. “That's enough. I'll take it from here, Lucas.”She turned her attention to the crowd, her clear voice silencing the shutters of the cameras. “I hope that's enough evidence to answer all your questions.”“Heidi- Heidi Olsen!” One paparazzi exclaimed. “What are you do

As Lucas kissed her without a sign of stopping anytime soon, Heidi's toes curled underneath her shoes.Her cheeks flushed and she pulled away, her heart racing. “Lucas Harrison-”He frowned, wiping the side of her lips. “You just made matters more complicated, Heidi…” In a strained voice, he said, “Don't you realize you’ve just announced our relationship to the whole world?”His palm touched her bump protectively. “Now you're even in more danger than ever.”With a single flick of his finger, all the security men in the large hall surrounded them. Heidi didn't know there were also bodyguards until they appeared out of nowhere and paved the way for them towards the elevator, protecting them from the paparazzi who stayed behind.In Lucas's eyes was a mix of anger and helplessness as if she'd committed a tremendous sin. Making matters more complicated?It possibly wouldn't be worse than implicating his and his company's name. When they got to his office, even Amanda couldn't hide her d

Knowing that arguing would yield no good outcome, Heidi hurried to the door and held the handle. “Killian is with me. I'll be alright.”“Relax, Buddy.” Killian patted him on the shoulder. “Heidi is doing the right thing by taking responsibility. Not a day goes by without her grandfather grieving her absence.”“Are you sure you want to go?” Lucas said, the anger in his eyes fading into a look of desperation. “I'll find a way to make this work.”“The only way to make things work is if I stop acting like a coward, Lucas…” She gave him a stiff smile. “I'll be fine, don't worry about me.”Killian approached and held the door open for her. As Heidi was about to leave with him, Lucas called out. “I'll come.”He'd come with her?Heidi stopped, contemplating the odds.Letting him come with her would, however, only make things worse. And if she lingered here, her façàde of braveness might break down, giving way to the anxiety consuming her whole. “That's not a good idea.”He was frowning agai

Everyone else rose to their feet. Regina rushed forward and held Heidi's shoulders, checking her out from head to toe. “You- You're not Heidi.”“Don't you recognize me, Mum?”The woman shook her head, walking in circles. “Killian, what kind of a joke is this? Why would you bring that fake woman to our home?”“Aunt Gina, don't you recognize your own daughter?”“B-But she's pregnant.” Her mother pointed a trembling finger at her big stomach. “Heidi lost her baby some months ago. She's now married to Steve Anderson.”“Ha! What in the world is happening here!?” Lilian shouted. “Mum! Dad! I'm dreaming, right!?”Harold Olsen and his wife looked confused as well.Caleb held Regina, stopping her from pacing any further. “I don't think it's that hard to recognize her. So, Heidi, you decided to abandon the family for Lucas Harrison again.”“That's not what happened, Dad…” Heidi responded, her shoulders dropping, her worried gaze straying to Grandpa Jeffery who was very quiet in his bed. “Can

Heidi had turned for the door and she halted, hearing Grandpa Jeffery's command. Different kinds of emotions built up in her heart, ones she couldn't wrap her fingers around.In the end, she balled her fists, suppressing the emotions. She held the door's handle and walked out to be met with the scrutinizing gazes of her parents.They weren't far from the door and they'd been listening to her conversation with Grandpa Jeffery.On her mother's face was the same astonished look from moments ago. She grabbed Heidi's shoulders, shaking her. “What the hell have you done this time, Heidi? How could you go back to Lucas Harrison?”“Let it go, Regina…” Caleb pulled her away, the mad expression on his face matching the woman's. “It's fruitless. Because of him, she even lied to her grandfather.”“Even if Steve Anderson is a bad person, you shouldn't have lied that the child isn't his.”“I never said the child is Steve Anderson's, Mum.”“How do you expect us to believe you, Heidi?” Her father sa

Regina stood in front of her with both hands folded across her shoulders, her stern gaze fixated on Heidi. Heidi shifted on the bed. “Mum-”Her mother snatched the phone from her hand. She glanced at the caller's name and cut the call. “Are you keen on angering everyone in this family, Heidi? Didn't you listen to your Grandfather's order? You were going to answer the call, weren't you?”Heidi remained quiet, and she lowered her head. Knowing how much her family hated Lucas, she'd rather not irk her mother off who was already a ticking bomb. “Heidi- Heidi- Heidi…” Her mother sat beside her and dropped a heavy palm on her shoulder, making her flinch. “You're so full of surprises, aren't you?”“Mum-”“Tell me, are you still in love with Lucas Harrison?” Her mother made her look up, peering into her eyes. “Is that why you spent those months with him and sought no other alternatives?”Heidi pressed her lips together. “Mum, I'm sorry, okay?” She threw her arms around her, sniffling. “I'm

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
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 444. Played A Huge Part In It
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
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 442. Rampaging The City
~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
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 441. Her Paradise
“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
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 440. Let Her Go
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
