Skylar's POV
It was evening already so I just laid on the bed after eating dinner staring at nothing in particular.
I don't like the way I'm lying helplessly on this goddamn bed. I don't even know how my sister is doing.
Andrian also stopped checking up on me, I don't even know what I was expecting in the first place.
I stared at the ceiling lost in thought when the lights suddenly went of. Huh?
I became conscious of my environment and instantly sat up. There have been different attempts on my life lately and this might be one of them.
I don't even care whether it's one of them or not. What matters is for me to stay safe until the lights are on again.
I slowly got up from the bed because the wound was yet to heal up and then I crawled under the bed and tried to be as quiet as I could.
Minutes later, I heard the door open. Oh God, please save me. How am I supposed to know who is at the door?

I asked a bit rudely"Is something wrong?" he asked like he's concerned"Why are you asking? For how long do you want to keep pretending?" I asked going straight to the point"I don't understand" he said trying to act dumb, well two can play this game"You don't understand? Is it the fact that you impregnated Leah and schemed with her to pin it on Andrian? Or the fact that you made a fool out of me?" I asked getting angry"I see you found out my plans already.

✨Episode 71✨(Final Episode)Skylar's POVAfter the hot romance between Andrian and I, we laid on the bed staring at the ceiling lost in different thoughts.I haven't had sex with Andrian yet because I'm scared. Scared because I heard first time is always painful and also because I don't know if Andrian will like me afterwards.I shrugged the thought of my mind and just stared into space."Why are you avoiding sex?" Andrian asked making me gulp nervously"I... I'm not avoiding it" I stuttered helplessly"Really? You always stop me whenever we are close to doing it and you said you're not avoiding it?" he asked with a scoff"I'm really not avoiding it""Fine then! Let's do it now since you're not avoiding it""I... We can do it later, not now""Are you scared?" he asked softly"No! Why would I be scared?" I answered raising my voice a little"Okay, i

✨Episode 70✨(Semi-final)Andrian's POVI sat in the garden just staring into space. Within few days, my life has become something else entirely.I can't believe Leah will go to this extent. What did I ever do to her? I guess this is the price I have to pay for sleeping with two friends. I don't know what I was thinking."What are you thinking about?" Skylar asked sitting beside me"Nothing" I lied looking away"You don't have to deny it. I know you're thinking about what is happening but you really don't have to think about it anymore.Avery told me something just now" she said making me turn to face her"What did she tell you?" I asked anxiously"She said the pregnancy doesn't belong to you, it belongs to someone else" she said and I felt my head spin"W.. what did you say?" I stutteredI must have heard wrong.

✨Episode 69✨Skylar's POVI listened to the recording posted by an anonymous person over and over again.The voice clearly belongs to Leah and she was talking to someone else probably on phone because the other person's voice wasn't heard.One thing is obvious in the record. She's pregnant for someone but she's trying to pin it on someone else.Does this mean she's pregnant for someone else and she's trying to pin it on Andrian or she's pregnant for Andrian and she's trying to pin it on someone else?Aish!!! I'm going crazy! If she had just mentioned someone's name, then this puzzle will be solved.Maybe the first thing to do is find out who posted the record. I'm sure the person will have a clue to what Leah really meant.I stood up to go in search of Andrian but I stopped in my track when I remembered something.Avery mention something about posting a record when she was talking to Leah yesterday so

I just finished cooking and I came to call Avery downstairs but what I heard made me stop.She was threatening someone but who? I heard her talk about the kidnap so I think it's Leah but I'm not sure about that.What did Avery discuss with Leah that evening? If only I could know what they talked about, then I would have the answers to my questions.I sighed tiredly before knocking the door."Come in" I heard Leah's voice"Dinner is ready, come downstairs" I said to her"Alright, I'll be there soon" she said not looking up from her phoneI stared at her for a while before going back downstairs. I just hope Avery knows what she's doing because Leah can be very dangerous.After we were done eating, I cleared the plates and washed them in the kitchen.I took out my phone as I sat on one of the couches in the sitting

I even tried calling her but she didn't pick my calls.Just when I stood up to go in search of them, my phone rang and I discovered it was Skylar calling. I sat down and hurriedly picked the call."Hello! How are you doing? What of Avery and Ella? Is everything okay?" I asked anxiously before she could say a word"Yeah, I guess" she muttered and I became really scared"S... Skylar! What happened?""It turned out that Avery was right, we're fine though""Did something happen?""Yeah, I'll tell you when we get back home""Okay, take care of yourself for me""You too" she mumbled before ending the callI rubbed my sw

✨Episode 66✨Zoey's POVI went back to my mansion in tears. How could Leah do that to me? The most painful part of it is that she doesn't feel remorseful.Why didn't I see that part of her all these while we were together? Was there a time she ever considered me her best friend?If she has been craving for Andrian all these time, does that mean she was the one that asked Mira to poison Andrian and framed me for it? Oh goodness!She acted like she cared and even encouraged me to be strong but she was the real enemy?Can my life get any worse? I don't think so!Right now, I don't even know what to do anymore. Andrian thinks I'm his enemy but he doesn't know his real enemy is right under his nose.How could Andrian even think of sleeping with Leah and getting her pregnant?

✨Episode 65✨ Avery's POV I walked up the stairs with a smirk plaserered on my face. Leah must be dumb to think I will sit and watch her do whatever she likes to Andrian.

I asked after staring at her for a while"I slept, I only woke up early. The time is 7:00 already, stand up and go and bath"I sluggishly stood up and went to the bathroom. After about twenty to twenty five minutes, I was done wearing my clothes."What else?" I asked Skylar when I was done"Nothing. I already called the guards to take our bags""Let's go then" I said leading the wayWe were both wearing dark shades to avoid the media and public and I prayed within me that none of them should recognize us.Thankfully, no one noticed us and we finally got into the private jet.
