Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 39. Abandoning Grandpa
… At StriveStyle Co. Isla showed more reports to Heidi through her tablet's screen. “LuxéAura, VerveC, EclatE; These are the major fashion brands and most popular across the country. Kate Anderson has worked with the two others in the past, and is currently working with LuxéAura which is the biggest.” “I have been looking into Kate Anderson's past these few days,” Isla added. “You can't believe it, Ms. Olsen. But there's a rumor that her family's origin is in this city.” On hearing that piece of information, Heidi's doubts all washed away. Her eyes lit up and she opened her mouth to speak but her phone's ringtone interrupted. Seeing Grandpa Winston's name on the screen, Heidi answered the phone instantly. “Heidi, are you busy? Will you keep Grandpa company on the phone?” “Why not, Grandpa? What's up? How's your health now?” “Since I stopped taking hospital food, I feel much better. But I don't like the food the servants prepare sometimes. Heidi, when will you do me the ho
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 40. The Heirloom's Rightful Owner
Grandpa Winston couldn't have mistaken the jewelry's unique design. In his rage, he yelled loudly, dragging the attention of the people. Stella's smile didn't falter. She straightened up, her painted long fingernails caressing the diamonds. “Oh, you mean this?” She laughed. “Dad, don't work yourself up over it. I got this jewelry from your sweet granddaughter-in-law.” “What? What do you mean by that?” “Heidi gave it to me.” Stella stepped close to Blake, looking at him lovingly. “Honey, this is an heirloom that is passed down to every deserving woman in this family. Aren't I the only current daughter-in-law? It should belong to me, right?” An Heirloom? The crowd couldn't help but take an attentive look at the unique jewelry. Never had they seen such exquisite and elegant design wrapped in simplicity. Its several diamonds reflected with the light, casting a soft glow over its wearer. Grandpa Winston's expression turned sour, hearing Stella's explanation. His hand shook
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 41. Two Necklaces
Grandpa Winston's eyes lit up, and his vigor returned. “Heidi, you have come,” he called out, and Heidi finally located him. “Grandpa Winston, I'm so sorry I'm late.” Heidi approached, kissing him on the cheek. “I was supposed to be here since, but something held me back.” And a fleeting rage flashed in her eyes when she remembered that thing. Heidi's anger only subsided after finally seeing Grandpa Winston. “The important thing is you're here. I knew you wouldn't let me down.” Grandpa Winston chuckled deeply, then he turned to Stella. “Aren't you too shameless? How could you lie on Heidi? You think you can deceive everyone with your fake necklace, right?” “Dad, what benefit will I get from lying on her?” Stella put on a look of disbelief. “The person who is wearing the fake necklace is obvious. Can't you differentiate the real one?” Heidi finally noticed Stella and Blake. Her eyes widened a bit when she saw Stella wearing the same necklace. So many thoughts ran inside

“What do you mean, Dad?” Blake frowned. “You must have seen wrong. Stella's jewelry is the real one-” “Silence! Do you take me for a fool not to recognize something I made with my own hands?” He tossed the fake jewelry at Stella and thundered, “The diamonds on this jewelry aren't even real. The gold is just metal painted with color and dust sparkles! Get out of this place. I didn't invite you to my birthday party. You came here to make a scene, isn't it?” Stella stared at the jewelry in a trance, her eyes blinking rapidly. Blake was also surprised that his wife's jewelry turned out fake. How did that happen? “Did you make a mistake, Dad? Maybe you accidentally swapped Heidi's fake jewelry with Stella's real one.” “Enough with your stupidity!” Grandpa Winston showed him Heidi's jewelry. “I was holding Heidi's jewelry in my right hand while I held your wife's fake one in my left!” And the whole crowd saw that. Stella's expression ashened as well as Blake's. The couple exc

“Let go.” Heidi's heart raced and she pushed at his chest. “You- How did you…?” She trailed off, her chest heaving up and down heavily from the sudden attack. “You found the real jewel thief. On your knees, now.” Heidi took in a deep breath, feeling gravely suffocated by his alarming presence. “Lucas Harrison, how did you swap the jewelry?” “Wasn't it easy?” Lucas said mockingly, and Heidi's mind wired back to the moment she stepped foot into the mansion. Lucas had appeared out of nowhere, pinned her against the wall the way he was doing now, and even made advances at her, while Heidi fought him relentlessly. That was the reason why she didn't appear at the birthday hall in time. Was that when he swapped the jewelry? Heidi didn't need to ask, because the answer was obvious. “How did you know it was Stella's doing?” “Maybe you should ask yourself what gave you the idea that I would steal the jewelry from you,” Lucas responded sarcastically. Heidi's guilt returned. Kn

“Lucas Harrison, let me go!” Heidi glowered, her voice low and vengeful. “In your dreams.” Footsteps came from the left, and Tracy emerged from Lucas's room. Tracy stilled for some seconds before rushing towards the couple. “Heidi, it's you again?” Tracy stepped between Heidi and Lucas, widening her eyes with fear. “What brought you here? Are you here to cause trouble?” The insecurities in Tracy's eyes didn't miss Heidi's scrutiny. Shaking her head, her lips curled into a disdainful smile. “I'm not here for trouble, but someone obviously is. Why don't you reign him in, Tracy? He claims you're the only woman in his heart, but he's chasing after other women and messing around.” Tracy looked from the stoic man to Heidi. She shook her head in disbelief. “No, Heidi. I know what you're trying to do. You will never succeed in driving a wedge between me and Lucas. I don't believe you.” “That's your business.” Rolling her eyes, Heidi threw Lucas a last glare and left. Tracy's fin

Inside Lucas's Room. Tracy sat beside him on the couch, pulling the man, who seemed to be in a trance, out of his thoughts. “Lucas, I wonder if Grandpa Winston is no longer mad at me. Can I go see him now?” “No. Grandpa isn't in a good mood tonight.” After witnessing Grandpa Winston's fluctuating mood, Lucas didn't think it was a good idea. “I- I understand.” Tracy dropped her head, sighing softly. “Heidi's here, and Grandpa might compare us.” “Lucas, do you remember this cup?” She unboxed an antique wooden cup outlined with nature patterns. “I do. Grandpa would drink from its type when we were young.” “This is made from a unique oak. I urged Dad to travel to the mountains and beg the ancient carver to make it. Isn't it amazing that it looks exactly the same as Grandpa's old one?” She let out a soft laugh, staring at the cup with sad eyes. “To rekindle old memories, I bought this with a lot of money. I hope Grandpa will like it. Grandpa doesn't want to see me, Lucas. Can y

His demeanor shifted. Stiffening for a while, he looked sideways at her, his eyes filled with confusion, anger, as well as disbelief.“Fine. Don't be late.”“I won't.” Heidi walked past him, not glancing back for once. The tension inside the room was impalpable. Lucas's dark eyes were glued to her back. For a long time, he stood there. Even after her figure had disappeared out of the mansion, he didn't move as if in a daze. Blake Harrison stood on the balcony of his room, his eyes fixed on his wristwatch.Not long after, one of the bodyguards appeared. “Where is she?” Blake's low voice was filled with impatience.The bodyguard hung his head. “I apologize. I wasn't able to capture her, Master.”“What did you say!?” Blake snapped. “That girl was in this mansion, right under your nose. How did you not seize the opportunity?”“It's the Young Master. He was with her. While she left, the Young Master was watching her, so we couldn't do anything.”Hearing the bodyguard's explanation onl

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
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

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
