✨Chapter 15✨

Andrian's POV

I finished with the work I have for the day and went home.

That reminds me! Aubrey had to take a cab because of the tyres of my cars, I hope she has gotten home because I'm famished.

I got home and went straight to the kitchen to see what she cook but surprisingly, I couldn't find anything. What's this?

  "Skylar! Skylar!!" I screamed but there was no response

I guess I have to go to her room.

"Skylar, are you deaf?" I said opening the door expecting to see Skylar but I saw her sister instead. I totally forgot she has a sister.

  "Where is Skylar?" I asked her

  "I should be asking you that sir because you went to work together" the little girl replied

I would have punished her for answering me in that manner but I'm really hungry now and I need Skylar.

  "What do you mean by that? Isn't she at home?"

  "Yes. I haven't set my eyes on her ever since I came back

Did something happen to her?Of course not! How will something happen to a girl that is up to ten guys? Imagine the way she flipped me over, I don't know when I will ever get that scene out of my head.I know she will be fine wherever she is. Besides, who knows? She might be with her lover or something.

Okay, that's ridiculous but still, I'm really nervous.After about fifteen minutes later, the doctor finally came out of the ward and I ran to him with all my strength. "Doctor, how is she?" I asked trying to sound calm "Meet me in my office" he said and walked awayDoesn't this doctor knows me or is he just pretending not to? I will go for Skylar's sake. "So, Mr Andrian, I'm sorry I asked you to come here instead of answering your question, I had to wash the stains off my hands." "It's okay doc. How is she? Is she awake?" "No, she's still sl

I'm definitely going to kill Skylar when next I set my eyes on her.I look at the table beside me and saw my phone and a land phone. I picked up the land phone and called one of my guards. "Meet me in my room now" I ordered and hanged up "You sent for me sir" he said with his head bowed "Yeah. Where is James?" I asked him. James is actually the guard that chased after Skylar last night "We couldn't find him sir. We saw the other guards that went with you yesterday but he was nowhere to be found" "Alright.

"Mason was here" I said with a sigh "Which Mason is that?" she asked looking lost "The Mason that kidnapped me of course" I answered with an eye roll "Really? Where is the bastard? He had the guts to come here? Take me to him now" Audrey rasped already on her feet "Uhhmm..... he must have left already" "Why didn't you inform the securities?" "Well, he came in disguise so I didn't discover it in time. That's bye gone now, I don't even want to talk about that imbecile.

I was the dumb one to believe he had changed.He called the third time and I figured I has no choice but to answer the call."Hello Skylar" his voice came in"Yeah, what do you have to say?" 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

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 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

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?
