Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 407. Resignation
“That's a horrible thing to say! Who says my marriage has ended? Killian just went out, he will return!” She cried. “Won't you pity my condition instead of rubbing it on my face?”Grandpa Jeffery shook his head. “I shouldn't have allowed Harold to raise you. See what he has made you, aren't you guilty of bringing shame to this family?”Lilian sat down, wiping her tears. “Whatever… you'll take back your words, Grandpa, once Killian returns and apologizes to me.”Heidi picked up her food tray and left for the stairs instead of the large doors. Jason was about to follow her and she paused. “This is bad timing. It's never gonna work.”“It has been many years, Heidi. You spoke the same words…” He held his forehead. “Don't tell me you're still obsessed with that man.”“I only want friendship from you.”“Our friendship ended right from the time our parents spoke about our marriage…” He leaned against the stair's railings. “Now I have a second chance-”“Not really.” Heidi shook her head. “Bu
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 408. His Fault
The title “Resignation Letter” was boldly written at the top of the document.Apprehension filling up the space of her chest, Heidi lingered by the doorway, hesitating to go near the desk. She called out to one of the secretaries who hurried up to her hastily.“Good morning, Ms. Olsen. Can I help you with anything?”“Has Isla come to the company today?”Probably, Isla left for some emergency. Her assistant had never been this late to work,And that resignation letter must be from one of the secretaries who resided in the president's area. The secretary sighed upon hearing Heidi's question. “You mean Ms. Kendall? She came and dropped a message then left.” While speaking, she picked up the document. “Ms. Kendall told me that in case you don't see it, I should give it to you.”The document Heidi detested to look at was being extended towards her. Her fingers shaking slightly, she took it and stared at it; and her heart sank at that moment, because her fear was real. Isla was resigning

Isla rose to her feet. She fidgeted with her fingers, looking from Heidi to Killian. “W-What are you here, Mr. Jonas?”“You know the answer…” Killian came forward. “I'm here to see you.”Covering her face, Isla cried helplessly. “Won't you leave me alone until the scandal escalates and tarnishes your image?”“What scandal?” Killian took her hands, moving them away from her face. “Believe me, that gossip won't spend the next minute on the media. I've ordered for it to be taken down.”“Is that supposed to make me happy?” Isla shook her head. “I've caused you your marriage; I can't live with this shame.”Killian pulled her into a hug. “Blaming yourself for everything is bad for your mental health. Why don't you put all your worries to sleep? I'm here for you.”Heidi wasn't able to calm Isla down, but Killian was able to.The couple hugged passionately, with Isla sobbing in his arms while Killian reassured her with words that came right from his heart.The sight was heart-warming, shakin

Lucas cupped her cheeks gently in his palms, using his thumbs to wipe her tears. “Killian told me what happened.”“I'm the most horrible person.” Heidi sobbed. “What if I hadn't asked you to convince Killian to marry one of my cousins?”“So what if you did?” Lucas murmured, his tone dripping with sadness. “I was the only one who could fulfill your wish at that time.”“My wish was a selfish one…” Heidi looked down. “If only I knew that Killian and Isla were together.” She sighed. “What if I knew things would turn out like this?”“What if fate had it that things would turn out this way?” Lucas answered. “Stop blaming yourself, Heidi.”He hugged her again. “Things were bound to happen this way.”For several minutes, Heidi remained in his embrace, reveling in the warmth and comfort it brought to her heart.It took a while before she came to terms with this monumental mistake. Finally, she shifted. Lucas looked relieved to find out she'd stopped crying.“You'll find a better assistant, H
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 411. Bond With Her
Tracy's appearance affected the atmosphere in the office. Accompanying the deafening silence was the dark tension that hung in the air. The man sitting beside Heidi seemed to be emanating a chilling aura as the air around her froze. Taken aback at first, Heidi couldn't utter a word, and when she returned to her senses, she couldn't believe her eyes. Tracy's bump was a lot bigger than hers as if she'd give birth to quadruplets. “Uhm, why do you look so shocked, Heidi?” Tracy went on, a sweet smile plastered on her face. “Surprised to see me, huh?”“What brought you here?” Lucas's icy voice cut through the tension, rage swirling in his eyes.As if unfazed, Tracy continued smiling. “Relax, Lucas… I'm not here to see you.” Her gentle gaze fell on Heidi. “I have come to visit Heidi and also to congratulate her.”Ironically, Tracy had said the opposite words while outside bantering with her secretary.The secretary barged inside, her pupils constricted, her eyes full of fear and anxiety

Tracy's smile went away. She didn't look sad, though. In fact, she appeared angry with the man.“I'm not here to make a scene, so I'll quietly leave, Lucas…” She spoke in an offended tone. “The whole world now knows you and Heidi love each other, and I'm the third wheel. There's no need to treat me harshly.”“Will you get out or not?”“Sadly.” She replied. “Although I want to spend some time with Heidi. No problem, Heidi doesn't seem comfortable with me around.”Tracy turned for the door, ready to leave. Heidi had been listening and watching in awe while Tracy gave her heartfelt speech. As Tracy was about to leave, she snapped out of her reverie. “Hey, come back.”“Huh?” Tracy spun around, her eyes brightening. Heidi pointed at the shopping bag. “You forgot something.”Of course, Tracy had dropped the bag on the couch beside Heidi while she was giving that strange speech. The gloom made its way back to Tracy's eyes. She picked up the bag. “Oh, I guess you don't like it.”“No thanks
Shouldn't Mess Up with My Hidden Heiress Ex-wife 413. A Melancholic Feeling
~Despite Lucas's assurance and the hours he took explaining the situation to Heidi in her office, the pool of her heart had already been muddied by Tracy's appearance. She couldn't indulge in the reassurance when Tracy had just reminded her of her uncertainties.But between Tracy and Lucas, who should she have more faith in?“It's the truth, Heidi… Don't think much about it.”With a calm expression on his face, Lucas looked unbothered as he drove her back home that evening, something that didn't settle well with Heidi even though he'd managed to convince her to dismiss the driver,Even though he'd assured her that he would only drop her at the gates. Why shouldn't Heidi think much about it? What if her baby turned out to be siblings with Tracy's child?“People make mistakes…” Lucas went on. “I would never make such an erroneous mistake, however. I didn't believe it from the start.”One hand left the steering wheel. He interlocked their fingers, stroking her hand. “Please believe m

Did Heidi hear wrong or was that Grandpa Jeffery's voice?Goosebumps ran over her skin, and blood rushed to her cheeks. She jerked away from Lucas, dreading to turn around and confirm her suspicion. It was true that Heidi hadn't heard wrong, otherwise why would Lucas express the same reaction as her?As he had a full view of the window behind her, his eyes literary widened before he looked down and face-palmed himself, cursing under his breath. 'Shit! We're in trouble.’Heidi didn't hear him say the words, but she could read them from his lips.Embarrassment washed over her as someone tapped on the window behind her. “You're not done devouring each other yet, do you want me to break down the window?”Surely, that was Grandpa Jeffery's voice. Heidi shut her eyes, wishing the ground would open up. Her cheeks ached as she tried to put on her best smile. Spinning around, she faced Grandpa Jeffery who was peering through the car's window.
