Isla's Point of View

"Dear," Mama Olga said. I moved my head first but my eyes remained pasted on the screen of my phone for a few seconds before I moved it to where my mother-in-law is. She was sipping her favorite jasmine tea while she was eyeing me curiously. At first, I didn't know why she was giving me those castigating gazes.

Pressing my lips against each other. My lips beamed a sheepish smile. I lightly shake my head too before I put down my phone.

"You are distracted. What is bothering you? I am sure that whatever it is. It is not my son." I bit my tongue swallowed hard and sat up straight.

Nicholas scheduled our dinner meeting at eight in the evening in The Glass House which is an hour away from where I am right now and if I didn't leave at this exact moment. I'll be late for our meeting.

"No. It's not Kai, Mama... but I need to go. I am sorry," I said, already holding the chain of my classic Chanel flap bag.

Mama Olga downed her teacup at its saucer and then she looked up

    Isla's Point of ViewNicholas smiled and nodded his head to me. I hung the chain strap of my flap bag around my shoulder and in time I got up from my seat. A waiter delivered the menu to Nicholas. He was about to hand me the one that was for me but stopped mid-way after he realized that I was getting up from my seat. I held out my hand to take the menu from the waiter that he gave to me wearing an accommodating smile on his lips. I turned to Nicholas to give him my copy of the menu too. "Would you mind ordering something for me? Besides, I am not craving for a particular dish right at the moment so anything is fine with me," I told him. Nicholas took the menu from me before he moved his head once. "I would love to. The pleasure is mine, Isla," he mumbled and that was my cue to excuse myself. When I got inside the powder room. I realized that I had no reason to be here. My make-up is on point and I am not feeling any need to use the toilet. Maybe I just got overwhelmed with what the

    Isla's Point of View Rory is still holding my shoulder. She flashed a smile and laughed even more the more I looked back at her like a confused puppy. She stood up straight and then she tucked some wild hair behind my ear. Rory playfully pinch my chin. "I was just messing with you. You should have seen the look on your face, Isla. I thought that you'd cry right on the spot," she said to me and she was still chuckling at me. "You are so cute. This is probably why Kairos fell for you." "Those pair of doe eyes. Your overall damsel in distress demeanor. That husband of yours badly wants someone so weak as you that he constantly needs to coddle." The mischievous smile on her lips faded. She turned back to the mirror and finished shading her lips with the rogue red lipstick. I unconsciously watched her every move and all that I could say was God. I do look like her. Every facial feature of her resembles mine. It's not Kairo's fault for not realizing earlier that I wasn't Rory Spencer.

    Isla's Point of View. "And a large size of cheese-flavored popcorn," I told the cashier. "It's a large-size sour and cream popcorn, Miss. She made a mistake," Kairos said just right after the cashier punched our order. I looked at him with a questioning look. "Why would you say that? I didn't make a mistake. I know what I ordered. It's a large cheese-flavored popcorn." "But that is not your favorite flavor," he said in a voice that only the two of us get to hear. I nodded my head at him. Of course, it is not. It's his because my favorite flavor of popcorn was sour and cream. I stared at him with my eyes wide open, "Is that why you told her to change it?" "Hmm. I want to try it as well. You are the happiest when you eat your sour cream-flavored popcorn." The female cashier cleared her throat. I grabbed the large box of popcorn off the table, leaving Kairos with our two large sodas. "How did you find out my love for sour cream?" I asked him as we were on our way towards the cinema

    Isla's Point of View. Rory leaned her face closer to me. Her lips slightly opened after she got a confirmation that I was close to tearing up. I stayed at the very same spot as she opened her arms for me. When I didn't move an inch, she took a step closer just so she could embrace me. She pulled away from me and then she leveled her face with mine. She is staring at me as if she feels bad about what happened, but the little curve on the corner of her lips that resembles a ghostly smirk says that she is just faking it. "Oh, you are crying. God! I suddenly feel bad. I should have known better than to kiss him back." Rory pouted her lips. I redeemed my composure and smiled at her. "I-It'a fine. It wasn't your fault too. I agreed to this. I was expecting this." Her eyebrow playfully shot up. Rory pursed her lips into thin line and then she nodded her head at me. "Oh, you do? That's great then. I am panicking here. I thought that what happened would leave you devastated." I looked a

    Isla's Point of View. My eyes widened immediately after I walked out of the comfort room and I found Kairos standing in front of it and was about to knock on the door. I cleared my throat and slowly pulled myself together in a way that he wouldn't realize how surprised I was to see him here. I pulled the door behind me to close it. I can't risk him seeing Rory inside. "What are you doing here? You could have waited for me outside." Kairos smiled confusedly while he was staring intently at me, asking if I have forgotten something. Good God! What did Rory tell him? The conversation that he had with my look-alike is one of a bunch of things that I'll never find out unless he has a slip of the tongue and tells me. "But you are the one who told me to wait for you here," he said which made me shut my eyes for a quick second. That bitch is up to no good. "Oh," I mumbled. "You forgot?" I didn't! I just didn't know that Rory said that to him. I smile exasperatedly that though I tried

    Rory's Point of ViewEven when I am meters away from the table where Nicholas and Isla are sitting. I could see the way my half-brother's eyes sparkled. I know that look in his eyes. That's the look a man gives to a woman he is willing to risk everything for. Nicholas Spencer will put everything on the line the moment he sees just a little hope and chance that he and Isla could happen. I could give him that hope and chance and then I can use him to do all the dirty job for me so here I am now. Seconds after I pressed the doorbell to his unit. Upon checking me on the small screen attached to the wall next to his door. I instantly heard him unlock the door for me. All the worries that one can find in the world are in his eyes right now as I looked at him with my eyes closed to tearing up. "Isla?" He asked. It took me by surprise. I know that I planned to show up here as Isla at first, but the fact that he thinks that I am that woman brought a pang in my chest. I always thought that N

    Rory's Point of ViewThe way Nicholas gazes at me makes me softly scoff. His eyes easily offend me. It's like I need to spread out the evidence for him to see before he believes these words of mine. I drink the last drop of my beer from the can and patiently wait for him to process the bomb-like information that I just dropped. "Rory, if you are doing this you could make me agree with whatever scheme that you are trying to pull against Kairos and Isla. This is too much. You are crossing the line." Nicholas took a little pause when he saw the way I was glaring at him now. I gritted my teeth and looked down on the dark floor of his unit. Anger boils in my blood and the only way for me to express it is by laughing. "I am crossing the line?" I asked him. That question was a chance that I gave to him to redeem himself, but when he nodded his head. It felt like I had lost my control and if murder wasn't a sin that would put me behind bars, I would have done it. "I know that I used to sp

    Third Person's PovAn emergency happened in New York that Kairos needs to sort out himself and because it's work his father asked Kairos to go check it himself. There is nothing Isla can do to stop him from leaving, hence why she comes home to an empty house. She removed her sneakers and lay in her bed and then she turned on her phone. A sigh escaped her lips after she saw no text message from Kairos. Isla looked around their room in search of something that she could buy online, because at times like this. Retail therapy works best to relieve her stress."My to-receive orders are piled up but one or two more transactions won't hurt me or my pocket, right?" She said, talking to herself.Isla went to her favorite online shopping app. After half an hour of scrolling in there. She couldn't find anything that piqued her interest so she gave upIsla left her phone on her bed to stand up and do her night routine. After spending an hour in the bathroom, she was ready to sleep when her phone

    "Nicholas grab the bait." Said by an nbi agent from the radio that Kairos and Kio immediately heard. They turned to the window where they could see the car parked at the back of the hide out that Heidi had put a tracker with."Fuck!" Kairos cursed out loud after he saw Nicholas driving away from his hide out."Where's Heidi? Her phone? That's where we can see the location of the car that Nichola's driving.""Heidi's dead but I got her phone." Special Agent Montefiore mumbled to them. He immediately searched for Nicholas's location through Heidi's phone amf they are taking a familiar road that leads to a cliff."I know that place. We should head there now." He told the agent and Barrette nodded.Kairos walked out of the room first to instruct his men on their next plan and then he turned to Kio."Please take care of my daughters. I will leave them under your care. I need to save, Isla. I'd die if something bad happens to Isla.""Our men will take care of them, Kairos. I already in

    "The infamous Isla Lancaster It's so nice to finally meet you." Odette is wearing a devilish smile as she walks towards me. She sat on the edge of the bed and looked at me quietly, which eventually ended with her laughing at me.She stood up and shook her head. Seeing me tied in bed like this tells me one thing. She is glad to see me suffering.She darted her eyes back at me with the same smile. Odette came closer again then she dug her sharp nails and traced my cheek with it and she end up caging my jaw on her fingers. I gritted my teeth and keep those groans of pain inside of my lips for I don't want to give her the satisfaction of seeing me hurting because of her.I tried to move my face away from her hand as my way to fight back but she didn't let go of me and instead she tightened her grip on my jaw and she started to laugh in a mocking manner."What the hell is so special about you huh? You're just a lowly stripper like me and yet you managed to win his heart when I couldn't

    "I thought your investigator and the NBI agent is working on it? Why do you still not know where Nicholas took my Isla and daughters?" Kairos shouted at the men in front of him.Kairos closed his eyes when he felt pain in his wound from the gunshot that Nicholas.Kio took over. He confronted the agents that Laurant was talking to earlier. "We hope to hear another lead from you but for now it's better for all of you to leave us alone." Kio said. The agents nodded to him in agreement. Just in time with the agents leaving his hospital room. A doctor and Kairo's nurse walked in to check on his fresh wounds."We need to be left alone with the patient, Sir." The female nurse said to Kio. He glanced at his cousin one more time before he left the room as he was told.The female nurse quickly injected Kairoz with an enough dosage of anesthesia after she removed the bandage from his wound while the doctor started to clean it after she stepped away from Kairos.It also took them more tha

    "Nicholas, stop it!" Heidi's voice was full of anger. She followed me while I carry the unconscious Isla to a bedroom. I didn't say a word to her and continued walking until I reached the room itself."This is not love. This is obsession. I'm not in favor of what you're doing anymore." I carefully laid Iris on the bed and turned to face Heidi. Her eyes scream too much disagreement with everything that she witnesses. I took a step closer to her and that made her step back. The trembling of her hand did not escape the corner of my eye while it was holding the hem of the bomber jacket that she was wearing."I don't care about you or anyone else. I only need her. I only want her.""Are you really going to ruin your life for a woman who doesn't love you?" She shouted to cut off what I was saying. I couldn't stop myself any longer and my palm hitted her face which made her quiet for a few seconds.It took her moments to redeem herself and when she did. Seething anger on her pools

    I knocked twice on the door of Kairos's office on the first floor of the mansion. I caught him standing with his back facing the door. One of his hands was on his waist and the other was holding his phone. He gave me his weak smile and gestured for me to come near him. I held my breath and tried to smile before I walked closer to him."You didn't sleep last night." I said to him. He wrapped me in his arms possessively. One of his hands touches my waist. Kairos seated himself on the table top and me on the other hand remained standing.He shrugged his shoulders and put a few strands of my hair at the back of my ear. "I needed to fix things for your flight and the place you'll be staying at." He murmured. He rested his chin on my shoulder. I closed my eyes when his hot breath hit my neck that made the hair around my neck stand up.My hand started playing with the strands of his hair who are now longer than his usual hair cut."Do we really have to leave?" I asked in a low

    "This is mine!" I quickly made my way to the first floor of the mansion when I heard Beryl's shrill and hysterical voice."I said I want that!" Raileigh argued back and tried to grab a magazine from Beryl's hand that my daughter is keeping away from her. I just held my breath and finally approached them both. Beryl came up to me then she gave Raileigh a death glare who was also looking at her with raised eyebrows."What are you two fighting about this time?" I asked in a low voice. Beryl pulled away from me a little and showed her a fashion magazine. I mentally shook my head because of it.Would you believe that? A seven years old kids are fighting over a fashion magazine?"She's trying to get this from me. This is mine. She didn't even mind asking if I could lend this to her, Mom. She just tried to grab it from my hand." Beryl told me what happened and then she hugged the magazine again and gave Raileigh her piercing glare. They are fighting over silly things, that's usu

    "By next week we will have the results of the examinations that we did on Mrs. Spencer.""Lancaster. She is a Lancaster." Kairos interrupted the Doctor just to correct him. The Doctor then looked at him with an anxious smile and nodded."Mrs. Lancaster." He repeated. He stood up from his swivel chair to shake his hand, but Kairos decided to reject shaking hands with him.Did I seriously fall for this man before? He is a bit rude and snobbish. Even now. I am still falling for him and that made me question my taste when it comes to men."Next week? That's too long. Can't you make a way for us to get it by tomorrow?" I grabbed Kairos's arm to stop him from speaking. He bore his tired eyes at me that is filled with frustration. I pulled him to his back and luckily he didn't say anything anymore."Thank you, Doc. We'll come back next week." I said. I extended my hand to him to shake his hand, but Dr. Aleman chooses to smile at me and stare at Kairos instead whose giving him a fair

    "Can you remove your tiara now?" I asked her after I've seen her wearing it even when she's brushing her teeth. Beryl looked at me for a moment then shook her head to decline my request.She finished brushing his teeth and then wiped her mouth with a towel that was just hanging on the side of the small sink of her own bathroom."I want to sleep wearing this." She murmured and gave me her sweet smile thinking that it'll help her to convince me.I narrowed my eyes on her. Beryl snorted then carefully removed the tiara from the top of her head. I followed her with my eyes as she walked towards the shelf where she got that tiara along with all the other jewelry and hair accesories.I seriously think that she's too young to have things like that."Mom." Beryl opened her sleepy eyes and watched me with a faint smile in her thin and pinkish lips."You love him more than you love Papa Nicholas right?" She suddenly asked. I stopped from stroking her hair. She caught my hand and checked o

    "Years ago. I got into an accident baby. I was in a coma for months and when I woke up. I-I lost all my memories. I can't remember your Dad anymore and all that I have by my side that time is your Daddy Nicholas. He told me that we are married. I am sorry but your Daddy Nicholas lied to us." An unbreakable silence made its presence known. Beryl was just staring at me with her mouth half-open, probably shocked at the information that I just gave to her."Dad did that? But why would he lie like that?" He asked me in disbelief. Beryl stood up from sitting. Beads of tears pools around her eyes.She shook her head as her way of telling me that she does not want to believe me.I stood up and approached her. Beryl sobs broke the silence of the mansion. She grew up thinking that Nicholas is her own superhero, the perfect king then this happened. She finds out that her hero is a villain disguising himself as one.Beryl sobbed while she is hugging me so tight as if she's trying to hide her
