I spent several hours in Adam's room talking with him; he even showed me pictures of him and Simon as kids. Despite the fact that Simon has always been given preference by his mother, Dad has never made Adam feel unimportant, even though their bloodlines are different."May I ask you a question, Adam?" When he was done talking to me, I asked him about his early years.What query? "Tell me?" He inquired."All right, tell me why you were upset and a little strange at your college reunion party." I made my inquiry.Adam smiled, put his hand on his chin, and said to me, "Daniella, everyone blamed me for something that happened in school."I was curious, so I asked, "What happened; did someone die?" as he paused, trying to keep his emotions from exploding. What could have happened to make him this way? I made an assumption, and regrettably, I was somewhat correct.At his college, a young woman in her early adult years died in his room due to an accident. Adam claims that he spent the en
A hurt Adam was so distraught that he did not notice when his father came downstairs from his room and saw him stomping angrily to his bedroom after we got home together."Dad, good evening?" I went upstairs to talk to him."Good evening, my love. What is the matter with Adam? At his door, he gestures. Adam should be the one to tell him the truth, but I want to do it myself."Good night, nothing." After giving him a forehead tack, I went to my bedroom.I got into some cozy clothes, got into bed, and fell asleep right away.The next day, I wanted to speak with Adam briefly, but he had to leave for work early, and meetings like this are typically conducted in person.He was just leaving Dad's office when we ran into each other, and I had to meet him at the office.Daniella, Did your father ask you to go back to work?He asked me after closing Dad's office door."No! I am here to talk to you. When I finished saying that, I smiled."Why, am I okay?" He attempted to change my mind.No! I
I woke up the next day and had to continue serving Gena. After making sure she was okay, I followed her to the kitchen and then back to her room."Hey! Are you okay?" I posed that query to her."All right, I am afraid?" She gave me a smile and let me in.For what reason are you afraid?"Is that Simon?" When I asked her a direct question, she gave me a back-and-forth nod.Gena is now afraid because of what happened last night, and even though I have not learned that Simon is to blame, I can not get rid of the feeling that he is involved. He does not want to admit it, but I will make sure he does.I went back to my bedroom after leaving her, changed into something cozy, and was ready to leave when Mrs. Edwina arrived with her car.She asked me to run an errand for her.My phone was nearly stolen the last time I went on an errand, and I nearly lost it.My dad had been with me since the morning, and he did not even bother to tell me that Adams' birthday was coming up, so I could not say
I went to the hospital the next morning. I did not even let Mrs. Edwina know where I was going, and Adam personally escorted me upstairs to see his grandmother after meeting me outside the hospital door."Greetings, grandmother". I said, trying to sound calm.Grandmother was lying on the bed when she turned to face me. She hugged me and brought her hand.Hello! Do you feel well?" I questioned her."Am I okay? I can not die now, of course." I mentioned it to her.All she could say when I asked her what had happened was nothing. Until Adam left the ward for a cup of coffee, she remained silent and did not bother to respond to my question."I need your help, Daniella."After grabbing my hand, she dragged me forward.What sort of assistance? Are things going well? Want to know why she called me? I questioned her.She remained silent once more, and a few minutes later she looked back at me and gave me some advice regarding Mrs. Edwina."Please watch out for your stepmother, sweetheart.
She was not supposed to return this early; the grandmother was simply stubborn about not going to her grandson's birthday. Dad and grandmother came home in the evening.After I made sure Gena and her baby bump arrived safely at the party, Mrs. Edwina brought out the cake and asked Susan to get the pricey carbs out of the kitchen as we went back to enjoy ourselves with the others.While Susan and the other maids returned to the kitchen to finish preparing the carbohydrates and ensuring that everything went as Mrs. Edwina requested, I was still responsible for Gena. Suddenly, Gena requested a glass of water.While I went into the kitchen to get it for her, I forced her to sit down on the couch. When I arrived, Susan and the others still had a lot of trays to fill with carbohydrates.I opened the refrigerator, filled an empty glass cup with water, and returned with it to Gena's seat because she was too busy to even notice me."Hey! You are ready?" When Simon slapped the glass out of my
Adam's mother's relationship with his cousin was something I never wanted to disclose to him. He found it so repulsive that he nearly wanted to approach Justin and have a conversation with him.How would he have responded? I am baffled; would he have made a scene or not?..Adam went out for a drink with his friends after the birthday celebration; the whole group was chatting when Anissa arrived, and then everything was different."Hello, Adam."To be spiteful, she purposefully put her hand on his shoulder.Greetings, Anissa "What are you doing?"A tense situation Adam somehow found a way to smile as he turned to face her. He smiled and snatched her hand away in a fashionable manner. Everything was standing outside the front door when I looked.Even though I had important things to do, it was completely inappropriate for me to run into Anissa again. I am aware that Adam's experience was traumatic, but every time Anissa approaches him and begins speaking to him, he feels out of breat
Despite her sincere regret for what had already transpired and her regret for being Mrs. Edwina's accomplice, my grandmother's apology will not bring my mother back to life.After the talk, she left the room, and I remained there, gradually swallowing my anger at the knowledge that Grandmother and Mrs. Edwina had committed numerous crimes. And let us not even talk about Mrs. Hope.She was fully aware of everything, but she never mentioned it to me until I was brought to the hospital.I should not be this concerned, but I am because my dad is unaware that there are two murderers residing with us.When Mrs. Edwina's car pulled into a hotel, I secretly suspected she was there to see Justin, her lover. After a few seconds of waiting, Adam and I followed her inside the hotel. She entered the elevator, and we were able to disguise ourselves.When I saw Gena the next morning, she asked for a glass of water, so I offered to go get it for her. Although she should not drink cold water, I had
I thought my dad was going to make a big deal out of it, but instead he took out his phone, called his lawyer to recommence the divorce proceedings, and then he simply walked away."What on earth just happened!" Mrs. Edwina fled after her husband after being shocked to learn the truth.Justin attempted to explain to Adam, but before he could speak, Adam angrily left after punching him in the face.It was like a war zone throughout the house.Dad got into a heated argument with Mrs. Edwina.His relationship with my mother was one of the many topics they discussed, and it was heartbreaking and annoying to watch them start talking about things from the past.Dad accused Mrs. Edwina of being selfish by leaving her son at the orphanage in order to marry him, and Mrs. Edwina accused him of having an affair with someone else while she was still in his life.Adam was about to say something when Mrs. Edwina's terrified gaze shifted to her son, and she attempted to hide her transgressions by ly
Adam returned home from the office without his father, as he had a meeting to attend. When I inquired about my mother, Sara assisted me in carrying my bags into my bedroom. She informed me that my mother had also gone to a meeting; perhaps there were any plans between her and my father.I changed out of my work clothes and went upstairs to Gena's bedroom. She was on the phone, talking to someone and begging for more time to fulfill her end of the bargain; it appeared that she owed someone money and had yet to fulfill her end of the bargain."I promise that I will make it happen."She had promised the man on the phone.What do you intend to accomplish? I told her as I grabbed my phone and properly leaned my ear against the door, only to accidentally open it and expose myself to her."Daniela, what are you doing here?" She was stunned when she saw me." Oh! "I came to see you and your baby." I approached Amber and lifted her up in my arms. I placed her head on my shoulder, washed her cu
The next morning, I awoke to find Adam had left; however, he had left a shot not for me and then some breakfast in bed.I changed and went downstairs to the sitting room. I arrived just in time because Simon was telling our father about his decision to finally marry Gena and raise their daughter together." Son, "Are you certain!" He asked him after Simon had finished explaining his plans.After all, we all knew him as someone who did not follow through on plans."Yes, Dad, I love Gena." He not only said it, but also demonstrated his love for her.Dad had to agree to his demands because he was serious and was taking responsibility for the first time. He instructed Simon to prepare for his engagement, which would take place next week, and the wedding three weeks later." Congratulations." Adam congratulated his brother, and I did the same before heading straight to the kitchen for a glass of water. Sara arrived a few minutes later, and she did not look very good." Hey! What exactly is
After Mom finished threatening Mrs Hope, we returned and talked for almost the entire day; she wanted to know everything about me, and as I began to tell her the truth, she smiled and asked me a very sensitive question."Is there a man in your life?" She questioned me."A man, no, I don't," I laughed, and when Adam entered the living room, my face turned nervous.Mom noticed and began to capitalize on it." Hey! Do you think Adam is attractive?" She recognized it from the nervous expression on my face."Do I like Adam?" "I do not understand." I laughed again, and I felt just as nervous as the previous time."Do not lie to me; is there anything I should know?" She kept asking me questions..." No? There is nothing". I confessed and happily walked into the kitchen, where Adam was attempting to retrieve a glass of water from the refrigerator." Oh! Good day to you, my dear". After getting the glass of water, he turned and spoke to me. I immediately remembered my mother's question, and it
Daniella POV.After returning from work, I went to the kitchen for a glass of water; I wanted chilled ice water, but the water in the refrigerator was not as cold as I desired.I was busy thinking about what I was going to do when Sara walked in and was surprised to see me standing beside the open refrigerator door..."Hello, Daniella. Do you want anything?" She moved closer and closed the refrigerator door..."I require a chilled glass of water." I told her, and she explained that the water in the cellar refrigerator would be more chilled, and I would need it.I needed to go down there and take it. I reached the cellar and opened the door, looking around before entering.I examined the refrigerator and then took out two bottles of very chilled water. I closed it again, and just as I was about to leave, I spilled a small amount of water on the naked wires behind the refrigerator, and everything sparked... Following that, fire broke out and engulfed the entire area.I called for help,
ONE WEEK AFTER MR. WOOD POV..I can breathe and not feel tense for the first time. Edwina, my spouse, has been a constant source of negativity in my life; she never fails to make me regret marriage. Why did I listen to my mother and why did I marry her?"Sir, are you interested in talking to your wife?"..I was followed into the office by Rowland, the officer who was handling my wife's case."Tell me, has she admitted to committing those crimes at last?" I talked to her and told her the truth in no uncertain terms."She keeps saying she wants to talk to you, but no." My question was answered by him."Why?" Even though I was reluctant to leave, I did so. Edwina was brought to the interrogation room to meet me after being removed from the cell."You came to see your beloved wife, aww."After they took off the handcuffs that were hurting her wrist, she made fun of me and laughed obnoxiously."We must speak, Edwina."To get her to move to the chair across from me, I asked the guard in
The next day, I managed to get Simon to come to the coffee shop. Even though our dad had a decent business idea, it was not worth investing in, so after hours of begging, I had to promise to talk to him about it.How about this? I was unable to tell him the truth because Gena wanted to talk to him about something significant."What is brought us here, Daniella?"...At his request, we came to a halt in front of the coffee shop."I am not sure. Would you like some coffee?"I touched my shoulder with one hand.Applying some weight to it.Simon opened his mouth to denounce the coffee shop as soon as he saw it."Hey! Be honest with me.Gena entered just as I was ready to settle into one of the coffee chairs.He nearly hit the floor, and his eyes grew far away."Oh my god, I believed you had passed away."He supported himself with the table."No!" Assisting him, Gena said, "But, I wanted to talk to you for a long time." She gave me the finger to go after glancing at my face, so I did, letti
I wanted to speak up, but I was unable to do so. Adam spiraled out of control as a result of the deception and deception. He was on the verge of confronting his mother and, more importantly, his brother; however, Grandmother intervened and begged me to simply return him to the room without telling him anything more.I tried to reassure Adam about what had happened between him and his brother by taking him to his bedroom."Hey! It is unbelievable that my mother and brother could do that.He angrily threw one of the pillows near him behind his back after grabbing it. I could tell that whatever his mother and brother had done had upset him so much that he would constantly discuss the problems."Slow down and stop thinking about it."I put one hand on his head and the other on his shoulder. With a smile, he placed his hand on my lap and touched my skin, causing the hair on my legs to stand up.Daniella, I would like to ask you a question.Suddenly, his expression changed...It got serious
We discussed returning home once the contract was signed the following morning. Adam had already made up his mind, so at first I did not want to tell him the truth; I wanted us to stay back.Mrs. Grace interrupted them as they were about to conclude their business meeting with Mr. Lawrence. She wanted her husband to assist her with something significant in the room, but based on her facial expression, it did not seem like they were going to discuss anything."Hey! Do you not think that something is amiss? Adam asked me because he had begun to suspect Mr. Lawrence and his spouse.Anyone in his position would be interested in learning more about what is going on, but him? will stop at nothing to conclude the meeting and sign the contract.I simply left him sitting in the living room by himself without answering his question. I then went upstairs and bravely had to break up the argument between Mr. Lawrence and his wife."What do you mean? I am not sure I understand."Mr. Lawrence que
Adam was done with his bath when I told him I was going to talk to Mr. Lawrence.His expression gave the impression that something significant was going on, even though I had no idea why he had come to find Adam.I want to go to the kitchen and get something to eat while Adam is speaking with Mr. Lawrence. Although I was not sure if I would find anything there, the kitchen was bustling with staff members preparing meals and keeping the house clean."Good morning, ma'am."The maid, dressed in a black and white suit, came over to me. Her kind smile and tolerant manner made me want to stand back and watch her help me every day.Can you give me something to eat? I questioned her."Sure, what would you like to have?" She tested my knowledge by offering me choices from the assortment of snacks, foods, and beverages found in the refrigerator and on the shelves."Perhaps I will have some freshly squeezed juice and cookies." After quickly going over what was in the kitchen, I came up with an
