Sherly threw all the things on the table, including the plant vases of bonsai trees she’s raising for years. A crashing noise of something breaking and hitting echoed inside her room. Broken pieces of vases scattered on the floor and at the vacuumed carpet. Soil dirtied the glossy floor. From her bloodshot eyes, they showed how the resentment blossomed within her. Great anger thrummed through her veins, boiling the blood inside her veins. They thrummed hardly, pulsing and pulsing. She looks like a volcano, as if there has been rage building up below the surface and she can’t keep in any longer. “Damn it!” she shouted and slammed the table once again. All of her plans got ruined. They failed to frame out Harriet and then what? She turned out to be whose daughter again? “What? She is what?” Sherly spit nails from her mouth. When Sherly imagined the face of Reese who introduced Harriet as Astell’s daughter, she was marinated with flaming fury. Questions piled up inside her. How l
"How did you know that Harriet's father is Mr. Astell?" this is the first thing that Zion asked to Reese. Reese, Zion, Astell and Sorren went to the VIP waiting room of the hospital. When they got there, Zion dropped the suspicion/he has for Reese. Before the welcome party of Cassius, it seems Reese did not say anything to Harriet about Mr. Astell. Because if Harriet knows something about it, then she should have told them about this. However, at the times where Reese got put in tight situation, she suddenly revealed it to everyone. After Zion asked the question, both Astell and Sorren looked at the maid sitting next to them. Amidst the anxiousness as they wait for Harriet to completely wake up, the began to get curious how did it happen. Since when? How? And what is Reese connection with Astell?"That is also what I wanted to ask," Astell said to the young lady. "How did you know that Harriet is my daughter?"Reese slowly lifted her pale face towards Astell, the man she once save
Harriet's POV From the first day I worked as the chairman's secretary, when Reese became the Nadia Wyatt, she got engaged with Zion, when Grandpa Sorren died, when I was framed up, went to jail, sentenced to death and died, I told everything to Cassius. This is a story that I would never ever forget. Maybe everyday, it never leave my mind, Every single moment I breathe, I can feel the painful moment I died. If there is one thing that I cannot tell him, then that is that I loved Zion. Cassius was silent when he was listening. But after I told him everything, he suddenly went berserk. "I need to Meet Zion right now," he said, with an expression of an angry bull who saw a red sheet. Before he could stand up and go, I stopped him, by holding his wrist. "What are you doing? Talk to Zion about this?" Cassius unwrapped my weak grip from him. "I wanted to punch him," he said. "I cannot believe this. Someone who's been by your side since childhood believed that you killed gran
The incident that took place in the Fabroa family has all over the news. Everyone was shocked to know that the multi-billionaire, Astell Wyatt, finally found his missing daughter. If there’s one thing that isn’t included in the news, then that’s the truth behind the poisoning incident. The news only said that Astell’s missing daughter passed out during the party and that was the reason how the truth was discovered. It will be impossible to cover for the real incident so the family members of Fabroa are so confused about the agreement the chairman and Astell Wyatt had. How did Sorren conviced Astell to stop the investigation about the poisoning incident? Madell, Sherly and Finn looked at the chairman. They are now sitting together around the same table, and having breakfast. Sorren rarely asked the family to have a meal. Usually, he asks this to happen whenever he has special announcement to share. And so, when Sherly, Madell and Finn were told to come and eat breakfast wit
Zion wore his necktie and looked at his reflection in the mirror. His clear sight turned blurry as he remembered what happened last night: "Then why did you hide it?" Zion asked. Reese just finished explaining how she discovered Harriet’s identity as Astell’s daughter. Yet, Zion still has unsolved questions in his mind. It is worth to celebrate Harriet and her father’s reunion but Zion wouldn’t want to skip important things. He thinks that if Reese really cared for her friend, she should have shared the truth as earlier as possible. Once again, Zion caught Reese’ hands trembling above her lap as she tried to keep the serene expression on her face. When his eyes went back to her gaze, he added, “And what about the poison that came from the drinks you were serving?” Marie said that she got the wine glass from the tray Reese was serving, which means, the poison came from her tray. Zion has slight doubt at Reese’ intention in revealing the truth, as if she was just cornered and
Harriet’s POV My new room in my father’s large house is really far from the small room I have in the Fabroa mansion. When I stepped inside, I could feel the luxury from the high-quality furnishing to the polished floor. I heard that this was especially designed by Mauritz Snymon and I wanted to praise him because he made a design perfect to match my taste. He used a soft and soothing grays and silvers to create sparkling, rich feel. From the modern crystal chandelier that dangles over the bed to a plush silvery gray carpet that practically begs for my bare feet, waking up in this bedroom would make me feel like waking up inside a warm cloud. There is an oversize black and white tree graphic above the bed wall that gave this room a focal point. Father really gave an attention to aesthetic detail in this place. The quiet room has fresh air coming from the balcony which can be separated with a glass door. The windows will automatically open with a remote and there is a massage chai
Third Person’s POV The night before Astell brought Reese to his house, the two had a talk. Astell is looking at Reese, while the lady kept her head down. They stayed like that for long minutes in the waiting room of the hospital. Until Astell spoke. “Why can’t you look into my eyes?” he asked. Reese’ shoulder flinched. Then she uttered, “it is because I don’t think I can face you again, mister. I am so embarrassed.” “And why are you embarrassed?” “Because your daughter got into an accident. Although it wasn’t me, I still feel I have to be responsible. I am so sorry. I am so sorry.” Astell breathed sharply. At first, he was disappointed because he thought Reese poisoned his daughter but he was convinced that Reese is also the victim in this case. Reese cried again and the old man looked at her with pity. “Reese,” he called, raising his hand. He placed his palm onto her head and gently patted her. The crying lady stopped sobbing. “Why are you blaming yourself?” Astell asked
Men took Harriet’s things from the Fabroa mansion and brought them in Astell’s mansion. Along with the men, Marie followed.“Woah!” Marie gasped while looking around Astell’s house. She stepped inside while hugging her luggage. Staring at her new home is like dancing on floating clouds. She’s in cloud9, the smile wouldn’t leave her lips. “This is so huge,” she added.If the Fabroa mansion is like state of the duke, then the Wyatt’s mansion is like of a Royal palace. In a place that is like a dream, Marie took a deep breath.‘I made a good decision,’ Marie said inwardly.She contemplated long time if choosing Harriet’s side will benefit or harm her. Yet now, the hesitation has gone. Marie celebrated the victory of choosing the right master to serve.Harriet is the daughter of a multi-billionaire. She is very wealthy, kind and not abusive like Madell. Choosing her instead of Madell is like grabbing a handful of diamonds over a single bar of gold.How did Marie get here anyway?“Oh?” Mar
