An hour later, Lily was ushered into the back of one of Christopher’s car along with Christopher and they were driven out of the compound with his full convoy.

Lily had no idea where Christopher was taking her, because didn’t hear his bark orders at his drivers and bodyguard, or maybe he had done before now, but how did that happen? Lily could not stop thinking and worrying and wondering where Christopher was taking her.

She couldn’t even dare ask him any questions, because his face were as hard as a rock in anger, and from the corner of Lily’s eye, she occasionally saw him tightening his jaw and grounding his teeth. Lily knew that she had witnessed Christopher’s anger at different times, but this time was just different.

He was furious.

Lily swallowed hard and allowed Christopher, his drivers and bodyguards to drive her, but she did not wonder for long as it dawned on her where they were going. The route was familiar now, and it brought a sense of dread to Lily’s stomach.

    "Please,” Lily begged the moment those words came out of Don Grander’s lips, because she feared for the absolute worst.There was a look of gloominess in Don Grander’s eyes now, and Lily felt that he was going to reveal things to Christopher. Why wouldn’t he when Christopher already almost figured things out? Lily had been speechless and clueless when she had found herself in the situation, so she would not be surprised if Don Grander was equally speechless and clueless as to what to do now.The only problem was the repercussions of the confession.Lily was not afraid to die. Actually, she was, but she would not have been so scared if this was about her alone, but Joe’s life was also at stake. Lily could not bear the thought of Joe’s young and promising life being snatched away from him because of her recklessness. Even if she was dead, she would never forgive herself, and her parents neither.“Make sure you look after Joe; he is your responsibility now.”Those were the last words of

    After Christopher left her with Don Grander and Emily, Lily was thrown into one of the rooms in their mansion and the lights were taken out.Lily spent twenty-hours in the room without anyone coming to see her, and she thought that she had been left to die. Lily did not even get hungry; she could not find appetite in this situation, but all that she worried about was Joe. Ashley’s phone was taken away from her, so there was no way she could reach Joe or Rudney to be sure that Joe was fine.“They can kill me, but they should leave Joe out of this,” Lily cried and begged, but she knew that it was a futile effort, because no one would hear her, and more so, Don Grander’s mind could not be changed if he wanted to have them all killed.She had been worrying, crying, and thinking for hours, and it made her head ache badly. It intensified so badly that Lily had to rest her head on the wall and close her eyes. She wanted to rest her head to see if the dull ache in the middle of her head would

    “Time for what?” Lily asked fearfully.She was visibly trembling, and it was as though she was seeing Monk’s scary form for the very first time.“You will know when it happens,” Monk said gruffly and he walked over to Lily.Lily cowered and tried to get into the wall, but then again, she wall wouldn’t open and swallow her up, because that was exactly what Lily wished for right now. Monk got to her, and he towered over her like beast about to devour its prey.“What do you mean by it is time?” Lily asked; the word sounded like he was taking her out for execution.Instead of answering her, Monk reached down and grabbed Lily’s hand roughly. Then he began to pull her towards the door. Lily wanted to resist, because fear of the unknown was eating deep into her, but then again, she did not have the stamina to resist, and also, she could never overpower Monk no matter how strong she was.When they got to the door, Lily paused with all the strength that she could muster. “Please, I just want t

    Christopher arrived at work in the morning with a foul mood.Ever since he left Lily back with Don Grander and he returned home, he had been in a foul mood, and he could not exactly state why. When he then had trouble sleeping, Christopher simply concluded that he was just mad at Don Grander for not telling him about the accident, and leading him on to marrying someone who suffered from a head injury.“Good morning, Mr. Christopher!” Trisha greeted cheerily, but there was also a sound of skepticism mingled with her cheerfulness.Christopher grunted in response and walked past her. Trisha was already doing the sign of the cross in relief; it was better to get a grunt as a response to her greeting than being scolded, but before she was halfway done, Christopher stopped and turned to her.“Ask Aimee to come to my office right away,” Christopher instructed.“Yes, sir,” Trisha answered diligently, and she proceeded to do just as she had been instructed.Christopher got into his office feel

    Lily woke up and her body ached badly. She felt as though every part of her bones had been broken, and she could still feel the scars that had been inflicted on her when Don Grander whipped her angrily and forced her to plead for mercy and promise not to ever mess things up again while Emily simply sat there and watched with a sinister smile on her face.Lily tried to move body, but she ended up groaning in pains.She was now laying in Ashley’s main room, but Lily could not exactly tell how she got there. The only thing she could recall was being tortured beyond what she could bear, and maybe she passed out, but hours later, she woke up in Ashley’s room.As Lily looked around the bedroom, she became increasingly afraid.The door opened then, and Lily almost jumped out of her skin in fright, but it was their old maid who had entered the room with a tray and a cup of steaming liquid. It did not smell like soup or coffee, so Lily could not exactly tell what it was.“What do you want?” Li

    As Christopher left Don Grander’s house and drove back to his mansion, he wondered if he had done the right thing by leaving Lily back at the house.“Why do I feel like I am doing something wrong?” Christopher asked himself.He did not like the fact that he was greatly troubled. As a matter of fact, he should be happy and relieved that he had finally gotten her out of his space, and besides, she was back with her family, so why did he feel so bad about it? Why was he having trouble with himself?“Maybe I should have insisted on seeing her,” Christopher said to himself.Don Grander had told him that the doctor, who had earlier came for checkup had advised that their daughter stayed with them for a couple of days for her to recuperate. According to Don Grander, the doctor had said Ashley was behaving strangely as a result of the new environment; Christopher’s house. Christopher had bought it, hook, line and sinker, especially after Don Grander presented him with the report of Ashley’s f

    "There was something you missed when you came around,” Don Grander said over the phone. He was speaking to Christopher.It was late already, but Emily had been pushing the entire day.“You have to do this, Don. You cannot keep waiting for that incompetent girl you have planted by his side, especially now that it seems like it is going to take longer!” Emily had charged.Then after Don Grander had successfully made Christopher believe that he did not need to see Ashley and Christopher had left, Emily had rained fired and brimstone.“Why couldn’t you say a damn word?!” Emily had raised hell.“Goodness, Emily, wouldn’t that have been insensitive?” Don had asked, frustrated. He did not like being pushed to do things like a child.“How insensitive would that have been, huh? He is your bloody son-in-law, Don, make do with that!” Emily had blown hot.“Emily, now just wasn’t the time.

    Benedict opened his eyes when he heard the door opening; it was the nurse that was coming to give him his medication.“Good day, Mr. Benedict,” she greeted warmly. “It is so good to see that you are awake. How are you feeling?” She asked.“How long have I been here?” Benedict asked.The last thing he remembered was that he was lured out of the bar he usually frequented in his drunken state and then he was hit by a bullet before he could even fathom what was going on. He might have been drunk, but Benedict knew for a fact that someone had shot at him and almost gotten him killed.Only that he was not fortunate or quick enough to see who that was.“About a week now,” she answered as she went on to check Benedict’s vitals.Benedict tried to turn, but he felt a jarring pain shoot through his left arm. “Ouch!” He groaned in pain.“Take it easy, Mr. Benedict, you are still healing,” she told him.Then she picked out the drugs he was supposed to take, gave them to him, and gave them to Bened

    “What?!” Lily was stunned and afraid and alert.Her mind instantly went to Monk and Don Grander’s threats that they would kill Joe if she failed on any of her tasks.“Yeah, and it was pretty weird. It made me feel uncomfortable,” Joe said over the phone.She could feel the discomfort in his voice, and Lily’s heart broke into more pieces. She even began to wonder how much heartache she could take at once.“I really wish you were here, Lily; I feel safe with you around,” Joe said warmly and sadly. “It has been over a year, and this is beginning to look creepy to me. Even Rudney does not exactly know where you are,” Joe admitted.Lily did not think that Joe would think too deeply about everything. She hadn’t even really been thinking about Joe and how her absence might have affected him. More tears dropped from Lily’s eyes in pain and regret. If only she could tell Joe exactly what was going on, but then again, she did not even have the liberty of brooding about that for so long, because

    Lily felt like she had been hit with a ton of bricks at the harshness and cruelty of Christopher’s words, and when she managed to look into his eyes, she could see all the emotions right there.“Let me say what I came here to tell you, please,” Lily begged deeply.“How did you manage to bleed like a virgin when everyone knows that you are not, huh?” Christopher asked bitterly and angrily.Lily opened her mouth to say that it was because she was a virgin, but no words came out of her mouth, and Christopher mistook Lily’s inability to say the words as guiltiness.Christopher shook his head. “You are my worst mistake, Ashley, and I blame myself for not fighting this arrangement when I was told. After this party, you are going to return to your father’s house discreetly until this whole crap of a marriage is over; I never want to see your face again,” Christopher said firmly.Lily squeezed her eyes shut as the words sliced through her heart. She felt like Christopher had literally taken a

    Lily could not wrap her head around everything that the old maid had revealed to her.Ashley Grander was alive, and no one knew!A tiny part of Lily was relieved that she was, because after all she had found out about her, it just didn’t sound fair that she would have been murdered. Indeed, she played her game well. Another tiny part of Lily wanted to see Ashley, the only girl in the world that looked almost like her, but according to what the old maid said, Ashley was in a far away country where no one knew her and with a new identity. She was living with the old maid’s distant relative, and to ensure that she is completely safe, she and the old maid had had to keep off communicating.Ashley Grander was smarter than anyone Lily had ever met.Thinking away from her now, Lily thought about herself. As much as she was relieved that Ashley wasn’t truly dead after all the evil that surrounded her, she had been the unfortunate person forced into living her life, doing her job, and cleaning

    “What?” Lily was stupefied.She could not believe that she had been played so well, but then again, a lot of questions were already running through her mind. Now, nothing seemed clear and she needed it to be, so she sat back down again.“You knew from the beginning that I wasn’t Ashley,” Lily stated.It was a statement that required an answered, a clarity of some sort.“Even if Ashley was truly dead, I would have known,” the old maid responded. “I raised her, you know,” she started as tears gathered in her eyes. “When her mother mysteriously and tragically passed, she was left in my care, and I loved and nurtured Ashley like she was my child. Do you know how heartbreaking it was for me to see her being constantly maltreated and punished?” The old maid asked.Lily could feel the raw pain in her heart as she spoke, and she shuddered at it.She would never be able to grasp the life of the wealthy and powerful. The more she thought she knew, the deeper the whole thing went. When she worke

    After Lily left Don Grander’s house, she could not afford to go back to Christopher’s mansion. There was still Hedge’s threat hanging over her head, but now, even Christopher’s life, reputation, and company are at stake here.Lily did not want anything to happen to Christopher Bridger at all.Then something struck Lily; to use Ashley’s phone to get across to the old maid! Why didn’t she even think of that all this while? She could not believe that she had allowed something as helpful as that escape her memory. She did not have enough time now, as the weekend event is just a few weeks away. Lily knew that Hedge wasn’t joking when he made a threat to Christopher’s life, because if he could release the sex video he had of Ashley, then he could certainly try to kill Christopher.The thought of it sent shivers down Lily’s spine.Thankfully, the old maid’s phone rang, and Lily waited with desperate anticipation for her to pick up.“Please pick up. Please pick up,” Lily prayed, and eventuall

    Lily could not stop thinking about what she read and the possibility of what might be. The thought of it made her really scared and confused.Was Ashley’s body found? What truly happened that made Don Grander and Emily believe that their daughter was dead?These questions disturbed Lily’s mind as Christopher’s driver drove her to Don Grander’s house. She would have loved to ask Don Grander these questions, but she knew him too well now. She knew that talking to him about it would raise suspicions, and if it did, he might want to get rid of her. The only person that Lily could have been able to ask without fear was the old maid, but she had been fired, and Lily did not know where to find her.“I have to find her by every means possible,” Lily told herself.Don Grander had to be the worst parent that Lily had ever known. How could a man treat his own daughter like that? Lily’s father might be dead, but when he was alive, he loved, provided for, and fiercely protected their mother along

    Lily went to the guestroom and pondered greatly. So after everything, Christopher meant it when he said he was going to reinstate Aimee, and not just that, he had picked her to plan an event as important as this one.Lily knew how important this was to Christopher, because she went with him on the business trip and she knew everything that happened there…or almost everything, and yet, it was Aimee Landon he chose.“What is it with him and Aimee?” Lily asked herself.She was frustrated, but she was downright jealous. Lily’s heart ached just thinking about it, and now, tears filled her eyes. She would never mean anything to a man like Christopher Bridger, whether as Ashley Grander or Lily Bashwood. Deep down, Lily wished that Christopher would at least like her, that is Bashwood’s daughter, but that was only a wild dream.Unfortunately, when Lily wasn’t even hoping to, she had fallen for Christopher Bridger.Why wouldn’t she fall in love with him? Christopher was the only man aside from

    Lily woke up in a different mood; Hedge’s threat was still hanging over her head, and she did not know the right approach to it, and then there was this business thing that Christopher asked her to get prepared for.Lily did not want to be a part of it whatsoever, majorly because of the presence of Mr. Yang, but she really did not have a choice. Ever since Don Grander kidnapped her and forced her into this life, she had not done anything of her own volition. Maybe she would just find something a little fitting and throw on, because her mind wasn’t really on it, or maybe she would feign sickness on that day to excuse her from attending.The landline in Christopher’s house rang, and Lily wondered if she should pick or not. It barely ever rang, so she could hardly tell. At the end of the day, Lily decided to ignore it, because she did not want to mess things up for Christopher, just in case she wasn’t supposed to take the call.A few minutes after the landline stopped ringing, Ashley’s p

    “Miss Aimee, your attention is required in the boardroom,” Christopher’s new secretary said to Aimee.Aimee had arrived at work in a jolly mood, certain that she had been able to manage every situation to the best of her knowledge. She was not even bothered about Derek, because she knew that he would be so busy fighting to win Trisha’s love back to even think of him.“Such an asshole,” Aimee cussed. “Who the heck falls in love with someone they ought to have killed?” Aimee scoffed.She should have known that Derek was incapable of tasks such as the ones she required of him. Anyway, Aimee was thinking about finding a more capable person that would carry out tasks without questions, delay, or even falling in love, when she got the message.“In the boardroom, right now?” Aimee asked, wanting to be sure if she heard correctly. Since Christopher demoted her without a conscience, she had not been asked to come to the boardroom, knowing that only the senior staff members were allowed in ther
