“Oh, then… let's wait and see.” Lilian rolled her eyes. “But just so you know, this little action doesn't make you the savior of the AG Group…” she chuckled, intertwining her fingers with Killian's who sat beside her. “Because, my husband here…, ever since we got married, has been doing everything to save the AG Group from collapse while you did nothing but hide in Lucas Harrison's home.”

Shaking her head, Heidi returned her attention to her food.

“So don't even think about getting any accolades,” Lilian went on, her tone dripping with hate and mockery. “After this storm is over, I'll be titled the new CEO of the AG Group.”

“Hey, Honey…” Killian drew her attention. “Why don't you eat your food? It's gonna tune cold.”

Lilian eyed the food and scoffed. “Didn't you promise we'll order a special breakfast today?”

“I got busy.” He smiled, trying to feed her. “This isn't that bad. Taste it.”

“The least you can give me is making sure I eat healthy since our honeymoon got canceled. Due to th

    Isla broke her gaze from his, her face paling. “Uhm, Ms. Olsen… I'll be leaving…” She collected her phone from Heidi's hand. “Please remember to switch on your phone. I'll call you later regarding Ms. Anderson's whereabouts.”Feeling the tension in the air, Heidi nodded. “Sure. Please go ahead, Isla.”But she wasn't sure if she would even get her phone back from her mother.Gosh! Zach Olsen!What was in that man's brain?Heidi lowered herself onto the chair, curdling her bump to ease the feeling of discomfort in her stomach.Killian broke his gaze from Isla's back, his eyes flashing with guilt. “You didn't tell me she was going to come.”“Did I need to give you a heads-up?” Heidi raised a brow at him.Killian chuckled. “Of course, not. Why the cold treatment, though? She didn't even say hello or goodbye.”Scoffing at his words, Heidi rubbed her pounding forehead. “Are you ready to sneak out?” Killian changed the topic. “I'm afraid I can't hold him back any longer.

    Seeing the crazy girl approaching in large strides, Heidi stood up. Killian stood as well, a look of helplessness washing over his face. “And here goes it again.”“Heidi- Heidi, have I not warned you to stay away from my husband!” Lillian stopped in front of them, her eyes flaring. “Let me guess… you can neither have Lucas Harrison nor Steve Anderson, so you've set your eyes on my husband! Why do you keep luring him to wherever you are?”“Are you so insecure to think I'll snatch your husband, Lillian?” Heidi folded her hands. “How pathetic.”“You- You're so pathetic and shameless, Heidi!” Lilian screamed, dragging Killian to her side. “I know you! Ever since you came back, I know there will never be peace in this home! Well, stay out of my husband's way!”“Even better,” she added. “I'll report you to Grandpa so he can put an end to this nonsense you're trying!”Lillian turned and stormed away. Killian facepalmed himself. “I'm never gonna take her out to any gala. She'll make me look

    “Ha! Really?” Heidi gave a short laugh even though her Uncle's words weren't funny. “Let me guess. After removing me from my position, you'll make Lillian the CEO.”“You're not dumb,” Harold Olsen agreed. “Just wait and see. Even if you beg, no one will save you this time. Not even your grandfather because you're carrying the enemy's child.”“What are you saying, Dad?” Zach butted in. “Wasn't it announced that Heidi's child belongs to her ex-husband?”“That's a blatant lie!” Harold denied. “Heidi's child belongs to no one else but Steve Anderson, our enemy! She is now ashamed to admit it that is why she announced that her ex-husband is the biological father. Clearly, she won't be allowed to run the AG Group when she's nurturing the enemy's child. If the child grows up, he'll follow in his father's footsteps.”“Shit! That is chaotic!” Zach ran a hand through his hair, his expression anxious. “Well, it's not Heidi's fault-”“Says who?” Harold chuckled. “This reason is enough to remove h

    Heidi fought the urge to roll her eyes. “Will apologizing reverse the time or change what has already happened?”“Look, Heidi… I'm sorry, okay?” Zach sighed. “I know Kate is your close friend-”“Well, Heidi will stop being friends with her,” Grandpa Jeffery said. Shaking his head, Zach stood up. “No. I'm going to marry Kate.”“What!?”“What!?”Both Grandpa Jeffery and Heidi exclaimed at the same time. Grandpa, whose voice had been weak, could even be heard outside. “Zach Olsen, are you out of your mind?” Grandpa squinted his eyes. “You don't mean it, Zach!” Heidi gasped. “I'm a fool, can't you see?” Zach's shoulders dropped. “I know I owe Kate a lot. I destroyed her career. Heidi, you're right. I'm a scumbag.”“She is from the enemy's family, Zach. The least you can do is apologize,” Grandpa Jeffery advised. “You don't need to marry her.”“Haven't you always urged me to get hitched, Grandpa?” Zach curled his lips. “I'm about to make your dreams come true, so you should be happy-”

    …At The GK Group.Lucas sat across from his office desk, gripping the chair's armrest to suppress his rage. “I shouldn't have allowed you to take her away.”“Stop blaming me, Buddy…” Killian played with the Rubik's cube in his hands, relaxing back on his chair. “Sooner or later, the Olsens Family would come looking for her.”Heidi had been eager to leave…Lucas stood up and faced the wide window, staring at the vast city below. She'd always reminded him that she never wanted to stay. She couldn't wait for an opportunity to go back to her family.“It's easy to escape…”“But she doesn't want to…” Killian said. “She's hellbent on pleasing her grandfather.”She even stopped him from coming, never considering his feelings.How heartless could she get? Hadn't she realized how desperate he was?“I feel you, Buddy.” Killian came to his side. “I hope you honor her request, though. Her grandfather is ill. He doesn't want to see you.”Lucas balled his fists. “I hope there's a way…”“A way for

    At GreyHills City.The airport buzzed with the engine sounds of the airplanes. Under the dark sky, their blinking lights illuminated the vast area. Heidi got down from the private jet and a gush of wind struck her. The air in the city was especially cold, making her shudder slightly.Beside her, Isla held both their handbags, squinting her eyes and looking around. “It's too windy here, Ms. Olsen. How are we gonna get to our location when we haven't booked any cab yet?”Heidi took shelter under a terminal. “Let's wait for a few more minutes.Isla sat beside her, letting out a sigh. “Are you sure Mr. Harrison is gonna come?”Heidi wondered why Lucas's jet hadn't landed yet. It must be due to the bad weather. “He said he'll come,” she replied.“What are we gonna do about the bodyguards?” Isla added, referring to the bodyguards who were helping to unload their luggage.Heidi hadn't thought much about them.How was she going to ditch the bodyguards?“It's not too late to book a room i

    Heidi entered after a bit of hesitation. “Won't you come with us?” She said to Isla who remained in the same spot.Her eyes darting to Killian, Isla shook her head. “Uhm, I'll stay in the hotel, Ms. Olsen. Who's gonna make excuses for you when you're not around?”Heidi nodded in realization. “Well, take care, Isla.”While Lucas's driver drove the car away, Killian let out a loud curse. “Why's your assistant suddenly so cold, Heidi?”“Maybe you should ask her,” Heidi replied in a light voice, cuddling in Lucas's embrace, longing for warmth. Killian grumbled some words under his breath. “You know what? Stop the car. I think I'll also take the hotel.”So the driver stopped and he left.Wondering what the man was up to and worried for her assistant, Heidi turned to Lucas. “I don't like that idea. Stop him.”“I believe the bodyguards won't prevent him from entering since he's also a member of your household.”Lucas had completely misunderstood her request.She wasn't worried about the bo

    Lucas, who had also noticed Zach standing outside Kate's Villa, squinted his eyes. “What's he doing here?”“It's a long story…” Heidi replied, sighing helplessly.Due to this incident and the crazy thing Zach had done, she didn't know how to face Kate. “Maybe we should stop by…”“And invite Zach Olsen to our home?” Lucas said. “Not a good idea.”“Why?” Heidi asked. “He's gonna spend the night outside here.”“The fact that the security doesn't mind him means he'll be safe.”Zach must have bribed the security men for them to ignore him.“He's disturbing the whole neighborhood.”“Our Villa's walls are soundproof.” Lucas brought out his phone and busied himself with whatever intrigued him inside the device.Heidi rolled her eyes. She glanced out of the window, staring at Zach's figure which was now only a speck in the distance.Lucas might have his own reasons, but maybe it wasn't a good idea. Zach never saw eye to eye with Lucas. How sure was she that he wasn't going to blow the whistl

    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

    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?
