Inside A Villa.

The hummingbirds chirped from outside, and the morning light streamed in through the curtains.

The solitary figure of the man stepped inside the closet, his eyes scanning the several business suits hanging from the racks.

In the dimly lit walk-in closet, Lucas took his time searching for something special to wear.

In his exploration, his hand reached the furthest end of the closet and his fingers grazed something that felt like a box.

Lucas retrieved the wide box, his brows furrowing. He opened it and found a striking dark blue tuxedo with his initials carved with a golden thread in the front pocket.

Lucas wore the tuxedo and took an unusual time appreciating his appearance in the mirror.

Not recalling when he ordered this custom-made tuxedo, he summoned the maid when he reached downstairs.

“Mira, when did this arrive?”

Mira held her cheek with both hands, her eyes shining with admiration when she saw the boss looking more handsome than usual. “This looks very

    …At GreyHills City's Airport.Heidi came down from the plane with Isla by her side. “This place is beautiful,” Isla commented. Heidi nodded in agreement.“Princess, sorry I can't accompany you on your business trip. I'd rather go catch some fun. Goodbye.” Zach had his own plans, so he made it clear as soon as they arrived. At that moment, a flashy red car parked in front of him, and a slender lady dressed in a black mini-dress came down.“Long time no see, Mr. Olsen.” She batted her lashes, her lips pulling into a seductive smile.“Hey, Ruby, you haven't changed a lot.” Zach winked at her and took the car keys. They soon drove off.Isla couldn't close her mouth. “What are we gonna do now, Ms. Olsen? I thought Mr. Olsen would accompany us. As the president of AG Group, his presence might have some impact on the clients.”Imagine Isla's joy when Zach joined them on the trip. But now, he was abandoning them for some fun?“Believe me, you wouldn't want him to be there.” Heidi shook he

    …At the center of GreyHills City, where the traffic was high and the streetlights shone as the day, was an enormous Bar. A sleek black car pulled over, and a man jumped out of the passenger seat and held the back door open. “Mr. Harrison, I hope you won't turn down an invitation for a nightlong fun.”“I came here for business.” Lucas looked displeased. “Where can I meet Mr. Herman.”“Mr. Herman is in there. You see…” The man put on a hesitant look. “Mr. Herman manages this bar and is always around to keep a close watch on it. Don't worry, a private booth is specifically reserved for you. The good news is that it is soundproof and you won't be disturbed by the music coming from downstairs.”Since the client didn't want any fun, the man quickly dropped the topic like a hot potato. Lucas followed him into the bar, and Amanda followed behind, whispering, “Those properties are very good and will bring in a lot of cash. Mr. Harrison, we will gain more profit by investing in them.”“I wo

    The cool air around him and the subtle smile on his lips would instantly make one comfortable in his presence.“Speak of the devil.” Kate laughed.Isla choked on her drink, and Heidi stared at him wide-eyed. “Let me guess, you're Steve!” Heidi stood up, not believing her eyes. From the moment Steve walked in, his eyes first landed on her, and he couldn't look away. His lips formed a ‘Wow’ shape, and he shoved both hands into his pants pocket, blinking slowly. “And you're Heidi?” The words left his lips as a whisper.Kate looked from her brother to Heidi. She smiled secretly, a mischievous look glinting in her eyes. “Yeah, she's Heidi.” Kate broke the awkward silence. “Stop drooling, Bro. Heidi's my special guest, don't make her uncomfortable.”Steve collected himself and sat down, his eyes still fixed on Heidi. “You've truly grown into a beautiful woman. I'm amazed.”“I can say the same for you.” Heidi laughed. “Where's that lonely boy who would secretly sneak snacks into my locke

    Outside The Bar… Mr. Herman held the backseat door of the car open, grinning from ear to ear. “Have a great night, Mr. Harrison. I hope we have many more collaborations in the future.” Lucas sat inside the car. As the driver was about to kick off the engine, Amanda reported from the passenger seat. “Mr. Harrison, the pilot notified me that the weather is good, and we can return to Phoenix City tonight.” Lucas's mind strayed to that familiar figure. His eyes were closed, seemingly lost in his thoughts. He couldn't have mistaken, right? She was definitely Heidi. “Mr. Harrison, is everything alright?” Amanda asked, wondering if he didn't hear her report. Lucas opened his eyes. About to answer Amanda's question, but what he first saw astounded him. Through the car's front window, three ladies walked out of the bar and Heidi was among them. His instincts were right. He hadn't been hallucinating. Lucas straightened up, his narrowed eyes fixed on her. A man accompanied them, an

    As the man approached, Heidi was eerily aware that it was him. Lucas Harrison.Lucas stopped in front of her. He didn't look as surprised as she was on seeing him.“You… what are you doing here?”“I should ask you the same question.”Heidi didn't expect him to suddenly grab her arm. His eyes were as sharp as a knife and his handsome features spelt imminent danger.“Hey, let me go.” Getting over her shock, Heidi pulled away. “Watch your action, Mr. Harrison.”“Shut up, just answer my question.”“Heidi, what's going on?” Kate stepped between them. Seeing the heavenly handsome man almost made the air in her lungs escape until he grabbed Heidi forcefully. “Do you know each other? Hey, Dude, you can't just pop out of nowhere and bully a lady. Leave Heidi alone or I'll call the police.”The only response Kate got from the man was a deadly glare. “The heck! Do you want to bully me too?” Kate rolled up her sleeves, looking agitated. “You'd better leave us alone, otherwise, before I call the

    A stunned silence lingered. Heidi paused and stared at him in shock, her chest heaving up and down. Her ponytail loosened, and a portion of her hair cascaded down the side of her face. As she breathed heavily, her lips parted slightly, her wide milky eyes staring back at him. Starkly aware of their proximity, and feeling a particular soft flesh pressed against his hard chest, a breath of air escaped from his lips and his throat dried up. Heidi's heartbeat was a mess, her chest thumping nonstop. As Lucas reached up with his hand and pulled a hair strand behind her ear, letting his fingers graze the side of her neck, a strange sensation coursed down her system, igniting flames inside her. Their heartbeats were prominent. He wrapped all his fingers behind her nape, pulling her head down, while using his other hand, which was on her waist, to press her close to him. When their lips touched, sparks exploded. Heidi lost sense of reality. As Lucas sucked the air out of her, lavishi

    At Heidi's question, Kate and Isla exchanged glances.Isla wriggled her fingers together, looking nervous. “Please forgive me, Ms. Olsen. I had to tell her everything, otherwise, Ms. Anderson insisted on calling the police. While we're no match for Lucas Harrison.”“So you got married before,” Kate exclaimed. “I honestly thought you were a fresh single, Heidi.”“Ms. Olsen and Mr. Harrison have already separated. But I fear Mr. Harrison doesn't want to let go of Ms. Olsen yet without giving her troubles,” Isla explained, looking fearful.She had spent a great deal of time with Heidi, and she'd seen how Zach Olsen had interacted with Heidi like his little sister. There was no romance between them whatsoever, and the news was revealed at Zach Olsen's birthday party that Lucas Harrison was Heidi's ex-husband. Isla became more curious, wondering why Heidi was never revealed to the public as a member of the Olsen Household. Everyone in Phoenix City knew each family member of the Olsens H

Four people came out of it; Heidi and the other two ladies, then that man. Lucas left his car, slamming the door shut. Before Steve could hold the door open for Heidi, he reached their sides, startling everyone.“Heidi, we need to talk.” Ignoring the shocks registered on their faces, he fixed his piercing gaze on Heidi.Heidi recovered from the shock, feeling a headache coming. When she remembered what transpired between them a while ago, her eyes dimmed. “Mr. Harrison, what do you want from me?”“Come with me.”“To do what?”“Just come with me.” Lucas's voice was eerily low, his eyes throwing daggers at the man beside her.Steve instantly grasped what was going on.

    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?
