The first pain came suddenly, it was a sharp stabbing one that shot through Christiana's lower abdomen, forcing her to tighten her arm around the couch. She breathed heavily,as she pressed a hand on her belly. Something was wrong. She had been feeling discomfort all morning, but this particular one hit differently. The pain was unbearable, and hard to bear. Her fingers dug into the fabric of the couch as she breathed heavily. She had been counting down the days,mentally preparing herself for this moment. But she didn't expect it to be so soon now. Not long after, her best friend walked in. “ Christiana are you Okay?”Naomi her closest friend, rushed over fear itching her skin as she saw her best friend in pain. Christiana tried to speak,but another contraction seized her, sharper and more intense than before. Her breathing became ragged as she held her belly, beads of sweat forming on her forehead. “ I … think it's time”, She managed to whisper, her voice

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 60: Shattered silence

    Melanie layed lazily on her bed,staring at the ceiling,her chest rising and falling in slow uneven breath.The world outside felt harsh and unreal. The weight of everything she had endured over the past few weeks pressed heavily on her chest. She had barely touched her food all day, and the silence of the room felt suffocating. Her phone had been buzzing for hours, but she had ignored it. Outside the sitting room, She could hear the strange sound of the television in the room where Daniela was watching the evening news. The brightening lights from the screen cast faint shadows through the small gap beneath Melanie's door. Suddenly, a loud, piercing scream disturbed the air. “Melanie!”The panic in Daniela's voice sent a huge fear in Daniela's body. Her heart pounded extremely as she sat up, Frozen in place.“ Melanie!” Daniela's voice called out again,desperate and filled with horror. Melanie's breath left her. Something was terribly wrong. But she did

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 61: Unravelling truths

    The dim light of the bedside lamp cast long shadows across the room as Melanie sat on the edge of her bed, holding the pen so tightly that her knuckles turned white. Her hands trembled as she stared at the blank sheet of paper in front of her, her mind filled with thoughts too heavy to bear.How did things end up like this?The news had broke her down. Her nudes were out there for the world to see. There was no coming back from this. And the HIV? It was a twist of fate, a punishment she never saw coming. There was nothing left for her here.She swallowed hard, forcing herself to write, each word feeling like a nail driven into the coffin she had built for herself.“Daniela,By the time you read this, I’ll be gone. I don’t want you to blame yourself for anything. This was my decision.But before I go, there’s something you need to know. Something you’ve never been told. You and I… we’re not really sisters. I was never your real sister.Your mother found me in a dustbin when I was j

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter62: Midnight doing.

    Daniela sat in the dim lit room,her hands trembling as she stared at Melanie's lifeless body. The weight of what had just happened surprised her like an unbearable force. Her heart pounded in her chest, as the realisation that her sister was gone dawned on her. Tears filled in her eyes but she quickly wiped them away. There was no time to mourn. She had to think. She had to act. If anyone found Melanie like this,they would assume she had something to do with her death. The police wouldn't listen to her explanations. A girl found dead in her own home, with only one other person present? She would be the primary suspect. And once they discovered the letter Melanie had written- the letter that revealed secrets too dark too dark to ever be exposed- her life will be ruined. She couldn't let that happen. Daniela took a deep breath,forcing herself to think clearly. There was only one solution: She had to get rid of the body. She looked at the time it was 9: 47 pm. She

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter63: Vengeance

    Daniela sat on the edge of her bed, staring at the phone in her trembling hands. The screen was cracked,and the device itself felt heavier than it should be. It held all the memories she wishes she could clear off. The messages, the threats, the humiliation, it was all in there. Every piece of evidence that tied her to the darkest moment's of her sister's suffering. She clenched her fists,her nails digging into her palms as she tried to think about her next move. She had buried Melanie deep in the second street, codely so that no one would hold her responsible. She thought of going back there to bury the phone but a thought dawned on her. What if someone found the phone? What if the police caught her? What if Richard , that monster stiĺl had some hold over her in death? Her first thought had been to bury the phone alongside her sister. She had even placed it in a small bag, ready to return to the grave that night and drop it in. But as she sat there,

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 64: Whispers of fate

    The sun cast a golden glow over the Dane mansion as family members and close friends gathered for the child's naming ceremony. Family's and well wishes gathered in clusters,their laughter filling the air. Christiana sat quietly in a corner , her baby cradled in her arms. The soft hum of prayers filled the air,blending with the occasional cooing of the baby in Christian's arms. She sat elegantly in a white lace dress, her face glowing with a mixture of exhaustion and joy. Despite the stress from childbirth,She was determined to embrace this movement,the day her child would be given a name. Alexander stood beside her,his expression unreadable. He had barely spoken to Christiana since she gave birth. His interactions with her were polite but distant, a reminder that their marriage was more than obligations than love. Yet, as he looked at his daughter,there was something almost tender in his eyes.Her daughter, tiny and fragile ,barely moved. While most babie

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 65: A mother's worst fear.

    The hospital was colder than Christiana expected. The sterile scent of disinfectant filled her nostrils as she walked down the hallway,holding Praise against her chest. Each step felt heavier than the last, the weight of her fears pressing deeply on her like a force in her chest. She had barely slept the night before and the dark circles under her eyes was evidence. Her heart pounded in her chest as She reached the paediatric specialist office,her grip on Praise tight on her shoulder. A nurse at the reception beamed smiles at her. “ Good morning. Do you have an appointment with the doctor?”. Christiana's throat felt empty but she managed, but she managed to nod. “ Yes, with Dr. Bernard . My daughter , She needs to be checked immediately”. She said, panicking. The nurse looked at Praise, her gaze softening before she headed towards the waiting area. “ You can have a seat. The doctor will attend to you shortly”. Christiana sat down,rocking Praise gently. The baby rema

    How time flies. Praise first birthday was here and she couldn't walk nor stand.Christiana stood in the living room, staring at the decorations She had spent the entire morning putting up. Balloons in soft pink and white dangled from the ceiling,the dining table was covered in a golden cloth, and a beautifully designed cake was left untouched. It was supposed to be Praise first birthday but there was no celebration. No guests. No music. No father. She looked at the clock, it was 4.30 pm. The party was supposed to have started at 3pm, but she had spent the last hours making excuses to the few friends and family members She had invited. She had told them that the party was postponed, that something urgent was coming up. But the truth was simple and more painful. Alexander had refused to drop the money for the party. When she asked him that morning, he looked at her with scorn. “ She's just a year old”, he said coldly. “ She wouldn't even remember it. By the way

    Praise suddenly falls sick in the middle of the night.Christiana rushed her to the hospital,only for the doctors to tell her that the child's condition has worsened due to lack of stress and lack of proper medical attention. The doctor scolds Christiana for missing important check ups,which she couldn't attend due to Alexander's negligence. Ever since Alexander found out that his daughter was disabled, he hardly contributed in the hospital bill of their daughter. She had done everything to be a good mother. She had sacrificed, endured, begged , her nothing seemed to be enough. Alexander had abandoned them. He had refused to even acknowledge their daughter,Let alone celebrate her first birthday. It had been Christiana's responsibility to pay her disabled bill for drugs. It was getting worse that at one point Christiana could not afford her drugs again, She decided to call Alexander's mom to report his son to her for not taking up the child's respons

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 119:A fool's Hope

    Gabriel stared at Daniela's name on his phone screen, his thumb hanging over the call button. His mind screamed at him to stop, to delete her number and erase her from his life. But his foolish bleeding heart refused to listen. He pressed the button. The phone rang once and then twice then also the third time. His ear began to shake as he imagined her reaction. Would She scoff at the sight of his name? Would she Ignore him completely? Or worse still was she Lying in Alexander's arms, Laughing at his desperation?. On the fourth ring, The call connected . A cold, detached voice filled his ears. “ Hello?”. Gabriel's breath almost left him. He hadn't really prepared for this . Now that She was on the line, the words tangled inside him, choking him. He had imagined her reaction when she saw his name on her screen. Was she smiling at his call?Would she groan in annoyance and cut the call while rolling her eyes at Alexander? But now that she had picked the call, all he could do

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 118: The power of betrayal

    Gabriel sat in the dimly lit living room, staring blankly at the wall. The silence of the house was suffocating, pressing against his chest like a heavy weight. The absence of Daniela felt like a gaping hole in his life, one that he never imagined would exist.Just days ago, this house was filled with warmth, laughter, and the familiar presence of the woman he loved. Now, it was just an empty space—lifeless, cold, and unbearably quiet.He let out a long, shaky breath as he ran a hand through his disheveled hair. His eyes, bloodshot from lack of sleep, flickered toward the half-empty bottle of whiskey on the table. He had never been much of a drinker, but tonight, the burn of alcohol seemed like the only thing keeping him grounded."Why, Daniela?" he muttered, his voice barely above a whisper. "Why did you do this to me?"The pain in his chest tightened as memories of her flooded his mind. The way she used to smile at him, the way she would rest her head on his shoulder after a long da

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 117:The coronation of the new king and queen

    The sun hung low in the sky, casting a golden glow over the vast, fertile lands of the village as Alexander’s convoy approached. The air buzzed with excitement, and the entire community had gathered in anticipation of the arrival of their new king and queen.Alexander sat in the back of his luxurious black car,his fingers joined together as he stared out of the window. Beside him, Daniela sat quietly, her expression unreadable. She was dressed in a flowing royal blue gown, adorned with intricate golden embroidery that shimmered in the fading sunlight.She had not spoken much since they left the city. Alexander had noticed the distant look in her eyes, but he didn’t care. All that mattered was that she was here with him, and soon, she would be crowned as his queen.The journey had been long, winding through dusty roads and dense forests, but finally, they reached the grand palace at the heart of the village. The palace, though ancient, stood with an air of majesty—its walls adorned w

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 116:Gabriel's heartbreak

    Gabriel stood frozen, his entire world crashing down around him. The wrumpled note in his trembling hands felt heavier than it should, as if it carried the weight of all the emotions swirling inside him. His chest tightened, his breathing uneven as the words replayed in his mind. I’m sorry. I don’t expect you to understand, but I have to go. Please don’t look for me.His throat left him and before he knew it, hot tears welled up in his eyes. His hands trembled as he wiped his face, but the tears kept coming. He let out a sharp breath, gripping the edge of the dining table for support.Why?Why would Daniela suddenly leave him like this? After everything they had been through, after everything he had done for her?He staggered backward, dragging a hand through his hair in frustration. His mind reeled with unanswered questions. This wasn’t just a simple breakup—it didn’t make sense. Daniela had given no signs of being unhappy. She had never complained. If anything, she had seemed happy

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 115:Gabriel wakes up to an empty bed

    Gabriel stirred in his sleep, shifting slightly as he reached out for Daniela, expecting to feel the warmth of her body beside him. His fingers touched nothing but cold sheets. His brows furrowed as his eyes flickered open. The dim glow of the bedside lamp illuminated the empty space beside him.“Daniela?” he called groggily, his voice thick with sleep. No response.His heart pounded slightly as he sat up, running a hand through his messy hair. He reached for his phone on the nightstand and checked the time—2:37 AM. A strange sense of unease crept up his spine.Maybe she had gone to the bathroom? He swung his legs off the bed, planting his feet on the cold tiles before standing up. He walked toward the bathroom door and knocked lightly.“Dani?”Silence.His chest tightened as he pushed the door open, only to find the bathroom empty. He frowned, stepping out into the dimly lit bedroom. His eyes darted around, his mind struggling to stay rational.“She must be in the kitchen,” he murmure

    The city was wrapped in silence, the streets nearly empty except for the occasional flicker of headlights cutting through the night. The digital clock on the bedside table blinked 2:13 AM in bold red numbers, casting a faint glow in the dimly lit bedroom.Gabriel lay beside her, deep in sleep, his chest rising and falling steadily. The rhythmic sound of his breathing should have been comforting—it always had been. But tonight, it suffocated her.Daniela sat up slowly, careful not to make a sound.Her mind was a tangled mess.She didn’t understand what was happening to her. A few hours ago, she had been living her normal life—working, loving Gabriel, planning for their future. But now, all she could think about was Alexander.His voice.His face.His presence.It was like an invisible thread was pulling her toward him, tightening around her chest, making it impossible to breathe unless she was closer to him.Her heart ached for him.And she had no idea why.Shaking off the confusion, s

    The sun hung lazily in the sky, casting soft golden hues through the curtains of Daniela’s cozy apartment. The room was quiet, except for the faint hum of the air conditioner and the occasional chirping of birds outside. It was her day off from work, and she had planned to rest, maybe even do some cleaning, but she hadn’t expected a visitor.And certainly not him.Alexander stood at her doorstep, his usual confident smile in place, holding a neatly arranged gift bag. Daniela's brows furrowed in mild surprise. She hadn’t seen or spoken to him in weeks. She had moved on—at least, she thought she had.Still, curiosity got the better of her."What are you doing here?" she asked, crossing her arms.Alexander let out a small chuckle, his deep voice smooth. "Relax, Daniela. I just wanted to check on you. No pressure, no trouble. Just... an old friend bringing a gift."Her eyes flickered down to the bag in his hand.She hesitated.She knew Alexander too well. He was never one to do things wit

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 112: The plan in motion

    Alexander sat in his lavishly furnished bedroom, the golden chandelier above casting a dim glow over the space. The air was thick with the scent of expensive cologne and faint traces of burning incense—remnants of the chief priest’s visit from the previous day.On the polished mahogany table in front of him lay a small, dark vial.He picked it up, rolling it between his fingers. The chief priest had promised him that this would change everything. One drop of the sacred potion, and Daniela would no longer resist him. She would no longer see Gabriel. She would no longer refuse his love."Daniela, you will be mine again. You don’t have a choice."The thought sent a wicked thrill through him.He leaned back in his leather chair, his fingers tapping rhythmically against the armrest. He had spent the entire night thinking about how things had spiraled out of his control.When he and Daniela were together, he had never once thought she would leave him. He had been confident—too confident—tha

  • The Billionaire's unseen heir    Chapter 111: A gift

    The morning sunlight streamed through the tall glass windows of Alexander’s penthouse, casting long shadows across the floor. He had barely slept, his thoughts consumed by the memory of Daniela—her laughter, her sharp tongue, the way her eyes once softened when she looked at him. But that was in the past. Now, she was engaged to another man, willingly giving herself to someone who wasn’t him.That knowledge burned through his veins.No matter what, she would be his.A sharp knock on the door jolted him from his thoughts. He straightened, already knowing who it was. He strode toward the door, his heart pounding with anticipation, and pulled it open.Chief Priest Okanga stood before him, draped in a flowing red robe embroidered with ancient symbols. His presence was as commanding as ever, his dark eyes holding the wisdom of generations past. Around his neck, cowries and beads rattled softly as he stepped inside.“You summoned me, my prince,” Okanga said in his deep, measured voice.Alex
