Chapter 28 THE AIRPORT Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome on board. Flight reference MB3R2H.This is Captain James Toner speaking, and I have some information about our flight. Our flight time today will be 10:00am UTC+8, and our estimated time of arrival in the United States is 11:00 pm UTC+8.We ask that you please fasten your seatbelts at this time and secure all baggage underneath your seats or in the overhead compartments.We also ask that your seats and table treys are in the upright position for takeoff.“Hello boss, we're at the airport now, and they just finished making the preflight announcement.” One of the men put Mrs. Elena on call.“Find her! You just have to do everything possible to make sure she doesn't escape! Or you better don't come back alive!” Mrs Elena threatened.Since she left the hospital, she had stayed hidden, sending some thugs to go after Lila, which was her main reason for insisting that Cynthia shouldn't go by herself.The men paraded the ai

Chapter 29 NEW ENVIRONMENT “We can't probably go back to report this kind of news to boss Elena. We need to find a way out!” One of the thugs suggested after they've left without accomplishing their mission.They've been working for Elena for long. They know how cold-hearted she can be when one fails at executing a task she gives.“Then let's fake her death! That's the only way we can ward off her punishment,” the other suggested.Mrs. Elena had returned to the hospital to check on her husband, with hope that her accomplices were doing a great job out there.“Mum, why didn't you come back with Lila? Cynthia demanded, feigning concern.“I ran out of patience in waiting for her,” Mrs. Elena responded coldly.“But, mum, I...”“Enough! Cynthia. Hearing that name over and over again makes me sick!” She yelled with a frown.“I've done my own part; whether she comes or not, right now I don't care if your father just dies!” She declared sternly, her voice devoid of any emotions.“Excuse me,

Chapter 30Lila took a deep breath and squinted. Finally, this day has arrived. A day where she can dress and appear the way she wants. She lifted her eyes and looked at the tall building before her, admiring every feature of it. For the past three years, she had ceased to appear like the way she did today.“I know today will not be the last, but I'll be coming here every day.” She assured herself and navigated her steps to the HR office.“Miss Lila, based on your CV, it shows that you've worked as a journalist for a long time before you stopped. And I seem not to have found any working experience after that. So, why do you suddenly want to go back to the career that you've long abandoned?”The interviewer remarked, exchanging gazes between the woman seated in front of him and the CV he was holding.Lila remained quiet after giving him convincing reasons why she quit her previous job, trying by all means to conceal her crashed marriage as the reason for her resignation.While sitting,

Chapter 31Keeping Secrets Lila was seated in the dining room, enjoying some tea while talking on the phone. Her tone sounds like she’s making a confidential call.She spoke for long, while she kept monitoring to know if anyone was watching her, yet she didn't even notice that Aunt Kendy was stealing glances at her.Aunt Kendy could only guess that she was speaking with a man, but certainly not a friend nor a lover. The tone doesn't sound like one who is in love!To keep the confidentiality of her communication, Lila had put her phone on the lowest volume."Please make it snappy and be extra careful. I'll be at the airport, waiting for you,” she said in a low voice with a serious but calm look.“What is she up to? Oh, I just hope my angel has not gotten herself entangled in any criminal act because of the hardships of this life.” Aunt Kendy couldn't help but feel worried about Lila's nature of call.“Young Miss Lila,”Aunt Kendy interrupted.Lila growled at the moment she heard Aunt

Chapter 32 New Home“Do you think I care if your master is still alive or dead? Well, I'm sure he should be dead by now, but do you know what is unfortunate now is the fact that you are still alive? It would have been more perfect for you and him to join Lila in the eternal journey of no return; at least you can form a big family of four in heaven or hell,” ma'am Elena declared without any hint of concern over her husband's disappearance.“You know what? I only picked up your call because the number appeared without an identity on my phone screen, so be warned and stay clear of my life and my family!”“Do you know my only concern now is his will and nothing else?" She added hoarsely and hung up the call.“Old witch! It would never go well with you!” Aunt Kendy cursed inwardly and dropped the phone.She wished there was something she could do to help in the search for her master.Aunt Kendy sat down worried and devastated, feeling bad at how pitiable her master would look if he's stil

Chapter 33First day at work The echoing of those unbelievable words still left Aunt Kendy in shock.“W–what do you mean by what you just said, young miss?” Her face was expressionless as she asked.“I just said it now, that you're not seeing a ghost, Aunt Kendy; that's my father you're seeing in there. I know you might be surprised, but he just arrived today. Remember when I left for the supermarket earlier? I just went to pick him up at the airport and bring him down here,” Lila explained.“So you mean you're responsible for his disappearance all this while? You mean you were the ones that kidnapped him?”Aunt Kendy interrogated with a fixed gaze at Lila. Lila said nothing; she only nodded in response.In an instant, tears of joy welled up in Aunty Kendy's eyes as they began to flow uncontrollably while she embraced Lila in a warm hug.“I'm so proud of you! I knew that you don't have a wicked heart to keep grudges against your father,” she whispered into Lila's ears.“But, how wer

Chapter 34 COINCIDENCE As Lila hurtled towards the pavements to the ground floor, she stumbled upon Mr Damian Marley and a lady ascending the stairs. Lila greeted and halted her steps when she noticed that Mr. Damian wanted to talk further.“Oh, sorry, Lila. I never introduced my secretary to you. Meet Joan Morris, my secretary,” he said, gazing at the lady beside him with a smile.“Joan, meet Lila Sims, the new assistant to Mr Anthonio. She's now officially our assistant head of operations,” he explained.Lila tried to feign a smile but the other lady was resolute in her frown, ignoring Lila's hands as she stretched them for a handshake.“If only you knew that I'm doing this because of Mr Damian,” Lila mumbled inwardly but maintained a neutral expression.Mr Damian was bewildered by the actions they were putting up. He exchanged gazes at Lila and his secretary, the awkward expression on their faces could tell that something was wrong, but he couldn't place his hands on it. What was

Chapter 35“No way! I can never let them go free with these disastrous plans. For this, I'll be forced to avenge even my mother's death!” Lila said to herself as she lay on the big sofa in her room, going through the soft copy of some company's documents that needed her attention.She tried to focus but she couldn't. Her mind was still reflecting on the fact that Ma'am Elena would despise her family so much that they would want she and her father's deaths at all costs.She's struggling as much to grab some sleep so that she won't be dozing off at work, but the sleep was not coming.And that has been one of her biggest fears. Anytime she's working, she always tries to get enough rest to avoid wearing a dull face at work the next day.“Jeez! It's 7:00am already!” Lila exclaimed and stumbled out of the bed the moment she heard the knock on her door and decided to check out for time on her phone, which was situated on the bedside table.“Gosh! I just pray I don't start by receiving a quer

CHAPTER 95THE END: SIX MONTHS LATER“Mother, why haven't I seen Mr. Brian here again? Did he travel?” Ethan asked with an inquisitive look while having breakfast with his mother.Lila took a deep breath before giving a reluctant reply to the curious little boy.“He didn't travel, Ethan, just that he has been busy at work recently,” she answered with a twitch.“So, what about Mr. Grey? Did you love him? Or—is he?”“Come on, Ethan.” Lila interrupted.“You don't need to talk while eating. Please, observe some table manners.” She reprimanded him, scaring the little boy.A few minutes later, little Ethan couldn't hold his silence anymore when he heard the persistent knocking on the door while his mother had left for the kitchen.“Mother, I think Mr. Grey is at the door,” he said.With a broad smile as she opened the door, Lila's brows furrowed with a fading smile at the sight of the unexpected figure at the door.“What are you doing here, Brian?” She asked with a frown while blocking his

CHAPTER 94IN LOVE AGAIN Without hesitation, Grey stood up and rushed over to the passenger's side and joined her in the car.“W–what are you trying to do, Grey?”Lila questioned as her brows furrowed in confusion.Fixing his innocent eyes on her as he placed his palms on her hand while she held the steering wheel, his soft whispers made her numb at the moment.“Please, can you permit me to do Ethan's paternity test for a second time? I don't mind if you make a suggestion for the hospital of your choice,” he said calmly. The only response she could give was an unexplainable gesture in silence as she stuttered.“Grey, I—I don't think…”“Please, just this favor, and I'll be off your neck with disturbance,” Grey interrupted as he figured her response was going in the negative direction.Before she could utter another word, he was gradually leaning in as his hand met her cheek, and a warm whisper of his breath crashed against her skin until their lips met in a passionate, tender, and fier

CHAPTER 93 REUNION SPARKLING “What—did—you—just—say?” Lila's brows furrowed as she uttered those ceasing words. She could feel her heart pounding in her chest, leaving her with no choice but to get a good parking space and stop. Her eyes were suddenly turning fierce as she stepped out of the car and leaned on it. With a fixed and bitter look at Grey, she lowered her head and wrapped her hands around her chest. “Ghmmm…ghmmmm…” She cleared her throat. “If you don't mind, Mr. Grey, can you repeat exactly what you said while I was in the car?” She asked, peering her inquisitive eyes on him. “What phrase didn't you understand, Lila? I simply asked why Ethan was proven not to be my son, yet you gave birth to him just nine months after our divorce. So, tell me, are you a harlot or just some chronic cheat who …” Slap!!! “How dare you come to my house and accuse me of some nonsense infidelity, Grey?” She cut his statement short as her hands met his cheeks with a resounding slap. “So, yo

CHAPTER 92 THE DNA TEST “Mr. Brian, do you know that man? And why did we even come to the hospital, by the way?” Little asked with an inquisitive look after they left the hospital.Without a second thought, Brian answered wittily. “Sure, he's a friend, and—I actually wanted to see a doctor friend of mine, but unfortunately, he seems not to be on duty today.” Brian explained, convincingly and confusingly, to the little boy at the same time. “But—I think I know that man somewhere. He has once been to our house,” Ethan added. “What? No way!” Brian answered with furrowed brows. His mind began to race that the boy might tell his mother about meeting with Grey at the hospital. “I know who you are talking about, but this one is entirely a different person. In fact, he just returned from overseas yesterday. Probably, I think it should just be a resemblance, okay?” Brian explained, and the boy nodded. “Remember, every individual in this life has a lookalike somewhere he or she does

CHAPTER 91Brian returned to his house early in the morning so that he could get ready for work. Sitting in the dining room while sipping a cup of tea, he heard a knock on his door. “Come in,” he said without hesitation, believing that it could be Lila, because most times she does pass by the house before she proceeds to her office, which is just a few miles away. “Lila, I thought…” he paused when he heard a masculine voice greeting. “You, what are you doing here?” Brian said with an agitating frown. “Calm down, man. I'm only here for peace, so no need for the violent attack.” Grey, he said softly as he moved closer. “Well, you have a nice apartment.” He said as he rolled his eyes around the corners of the room. “I know that already. Can you just go straight to the point? I've got a lot of things to do .” Brian said rudely. “Alright. The thing is… I'm here for a favor, which I need so desperately from you.” Grey mentioned and paused to take a deep breath. “I… I saw Lila with a

CHAPTER 90HE KNOWS ALREADY. “Ethan, I said you should go inside. Don't worry, I'll explain everything to you once I'm done,” Lila said casually as she tried to avoid the little boy's question with a convincing peck on his cheek, but Ethan's smartness won't let him fall for her trick easily.“Come on, Ethan, have you forgotten that you have some homework to do? Let's get it done before your tutor comes.” Aunt Kendy convinced him when she saw the boy's hesitation to leave.“Answer my question, Lila. Whose son is he?” Grey insisted as his countenance began to turn unfriendly.“I don't owe you any explanations for the paternity of my son, Mr. Greyshun. Besides, where are your two daughters?” Lila responded with a straight face.Her hesitation made Grey's stomach churn. “Could it be that she was pregnant before the divorce?” he mouthed to himself. “Fine, I'll let that be. So what about the burning down of the warehouse? The condemnation of Cynthia's dress at the party? The cajoling of m

CHAPTER 89 IS THAT MAN MY FATHER? “Where is she?” Grey asked with a disgruntled look. “W—where is who?” Aunt Kendy replied wittily, putting up a look of confusion on her face. “Where is Lila, ma'am Kendy? Stop pretending as if you don't know what I'm talking about!” Grey retorted, his voice rising to a higher pitch at every word she uttered. “Look, Mr. Grey, I still don't know what you are talking about. Have you started going insane? How can you barge into my house and start asking me questions about the same woman you betrayed and sent to her early grave?” Aunt Kendy ranted, threatening to call the police on him if he didn't disappear from her door. Her words sent a chill down his spine. Instantly, a wave of guilt blew over him. Every day of his life since the departure of Lila, he had been secretly living with that guilt of being the root cause of her death. Even though he never loved her, Cynthia has been unable to fill that space that she left. “Oh, are you still stan

CHAPTER 88FIND HERJust as planned, Mark ensured that he convinced Grey to dump the old woman on the lonely, secluded streets.Almost suffocating from the dust of the unwashed sacks, Lila wasted no time storming out of the building an hour after the place became silent.“Fuck! I almost got caught! You need to be more careful next time, Lila!” She scolded herself.The ride back to the Shun's mansion lasted for thirty minutes. As soon as they approached the parking lot, Grey's phone began to ring.When he checked the caller ID, he wasted no time in picking it up.Mark's brows slightly furrowed in confusion. For the long time he had known Grey, he had never seen him pick a call from a strange number on that particular phone.“Hey, what's up?” He said that as soon as he picked up the call.“Were you able to trace her?” Her? he asked, his voice filled with curiosity.“Yes, boss. I'll send you pictures of her address now. I don't think that lady is who she made people believe she is.” Th

CHAPTER 87LILA, YOU'RE ALIVE!The message beep sound of her phone jolted her out of sleep. “Everything is done, ma'am. We've all withdrawn our shares. Thanks for the payment.” The voice of the man echoed from the voice note he sent to her.Lila stretched her body as she stumbled out of the bed.In a nick of time, all the dramas that had been happening lately involving the Shun family flooded her head, and she couldn't keep away from smiling.She stood at the large mirror hung on the wall and smiled at how far she had gone with her revenge. Even though she had spent a lot to convince the shareholders to withdraw their shares, it is nothing compared to the accomplishment of her goal.Seeing Grey's face wrapped up with frustration was one thing that gave her the utmost joy.Without hesitation, she drew near the bedside table and grabbed her phone to place a call.“Hey, how's she doing? Is she still breathing?” She asked as soon as the person on the other end of the phone picked up.“Yes,
