Chapter 059

Reese

"I have decided not to interfere in their matters anymore. The bonds that connect us have been cut, not by lineage but by decision. My goal now is to change my life and erase their influence from it. Discovering their secrets is their responsibility, not mine. What I want right now is to leave this place so that I forget them and forget about all the bad memories they brought me." I paused, studying her face after the words I said, and I was glad I could see that she was supporting me in this. "I came here to ask for your help. Please help me leave this place, Liza. You're the only person I trust, and I know who can help me."

"Of course, Reese. Don't worry, I will help you."

Liza assumed I was without money, so she covered all my travel expenses to Los Angeles, where her recently purchased apartment awaited, prior to her trip to Manhattan. The money provided by Mr. Vincent was earmarked for my baby's essentials and to serve as my allowance while I looked for a job.

Like she needed something from me, but I just couldn't pinpoint what it was. "I needed a decent job, which is why I applied here. I've heard the pay is good...''"Indeed. And I sense you're in need of a higher salary, so I'm asking you to join my team," she said, pulling a business card from her bag and offering it to me. "Work for me, Reese. I'll give you everything you want...''Flora Coleman. That was her name."Your starting salary will be fifty thousand a month," she announced, and my eyes widened in disbelief. Fifty thousand dollars a month?I paused, skeptical. It seemed too good to be true. I suspected this woman might be a scammer. However, she wouldn't be able to scam me. I possessed neither money nor property.Noticing my hesitation, she reached out and took my hand in a comforting grip. "I don't need your decision immediately. Take

    Chapter 061ReeseAs soon as my alarm rang, I slammed my hand to turn it off and got up immediately. Well, I had to be. Days when I could linger in bed past the alarm were scarce, perhaps a full eight hours of sleep was a luxury. Since the beginning of my modeling career two months ago, I've been averaging about four hours of sleep, or five on a particularly good night.''Come on, Riley! The hair and makeup team will be here at six in the morning!'' exclaimed my personal assistant, Grace, as she pushed the door open and peeked into my room at Flora's house.Yes, you heard it right. I moved into Flora's house and left Liza's apartment after securing a modeling contract. I've also cut my connection with Liza, switching to the latest phone brand and changing my number. I no longer wish to maintain connections with people from my past. Flora has given me the name Riley. Although I was unaware of her reasons, it suited me well, as I was also seeking to avoid people from my past.Flora evol

    Chapter 062ReeseWe arrived at Los Angeles airport fifteen minutes later, and the flight to Oakland airport took only about an hour."What is the purpose of this meeting?" I asked. As soon as I entered the building where the meeting was to take place, I caught sight of Flora. She greeted me with a tight hug and a kiss on the cheek. She had been in Oakland for nearly a week, attending to some important matters she needed to settle."Well, I spoke with an executive from Victoria's Secret, and they want you on their team for the upcoming event. Isn't that amazing?" she exclaimed excitedly as she grasped both of my hands. "I'm thrilled at the thought of you becoming the next Victoria's Secret Angel, joining the ranks of Adriana Lima, Riley."Rather than bringing excitement, Flora let me down again. "I'm sorry, Flora, but you should have consulted me first...''"But why? Aren't you pleased with this good news?" she inquired, arching a flawless eyebrow. "You're receiving the recognition yo

"I will allow you to keep the child if you can introduce me to the father...''My eyes widened as I stared up at her. The father? How could I even do that?I shook my head as I rose to my feet. "I'm sorry, but I don't know who the father is...''"Then kill that baby!'' she screamed through gritted teeth. "Are you capable of raising that child by yourself? Do you believe the two of you can manage with your limited savings? How could you be so stupid, Riley!''I froze. Was I that stupid?No. She was just telling me this just to get rid of my baby, so that I could pursue my modeling career, as she would be the one to reap the benefits from it.I shook my head for one last time as tears streamed down my face."I'm telling you, Riley.

I missed him terribly, yet I chose to wound myself rather than cause pain to my sister. I departed, uncertain of what his response would have been had I revealed our impending parenthood.Would he have chosen me over Candice?Would he have taken me as his wife and married me instead of my twin?I longed for his presence, but at that moment, I could only rely on myself. The question now was how to escape and free myself from Flora. Once more, I found myself fleeing from the woman to whom I had entrusted everything.

Her eyes sparkled with an emotion I couldn't decipher. "It seems you've lost a portion of your memories, but we'll consult the doctor about your condition and how to recover those memories that have been lost. Meanwhile, it's important for you to know that you are already divorced from your husband, Troy Byers.""What?" That was a good thing though, but I didn't remember that fact. Chills suddenly ran through my body, and I began to think about what might've happened to me if Flora hadn't saved me. "But I couldn't have possibly lost my memory.

She was using a cane for support, and a metal brace extended along her right leg. What happened to her? Had she been involved in a fight with her fellow inmates?Our eyes locked, yet her expression revealed no emotion. She appeared to have lost considerable weight, her once fake ginger hair now dark and cut very short. Her complexion appeared quite pale, and she seemed excessively thin, a stark contrast to the woman I believed I had fallen in love with.Mandy was hardly recognizable.''Mandy...'' I spoke as she settled into the chair opposite me, with the guard positioned a few meters behind her.Mandy regarded me with an expressionless face.

    Chapter 147Troy I had just paid a visit to my mother's grave and opted to enjoy a coffee at a nearby café beforehand. As I gazed through the glass window, I noticed a woman on the pavement across the street who bore a striking resemblance to my ex-wife. Her long peach dress, covered with a coat, fluttered in the breeze as she stood, lost in thought, staring down the road. She brushed a strand of her ginger hair away from her face with the back of her hand, a gesture so familiar that it sent a jolt through my heart.I rose abruptly, inadvertently knocking over my cup of coffee. The woman turned her lovely face upward, and for a fleeting moment, it felt as though she was looking directly into my eyes. In that instant, I realized that the woman was indeed my wife. I recognized her without a doubt.ReeseThe last time I had seen her at the office, she had noticed me but chose to ignore my presence, heading straight for the elevator to meet her husband, Lorenzo Carter.Prior to that, I h

''At bedtime, she reads my favorite stories and gives me yet another kiss before I drift off to sleep...''Tears streamed down my face uncontrollably. Riza was cherishing every single moment we had shared.''Do you love your mom, Asher?'' Riza inquired, to which the boy nodded. ''I love my mommy too, but I feel like she doesn't love me...''

The image of Riza's tearful gaze lingered in my mind, and I felt as though I might faint from the intensity of the pain.I slowly moved away from them, making my way upstairs to Enzo's bedroom. Perched on the edge of the bed, I pressed my hand against my head, grimacing in discomfort. I was starting to think that I had significantly underestimated the severity of this headache.Could it be attributed to my lack of sleep the previous night? That seemed unlikely. As
