But as I stepped into the bright sunlight, I couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off.Rachel, who had been my rock throughout this ordeal, noticed my unease. "Hey, what's wrong?" she asked, concern etched on her face.I hesitated, unsure how to articulate my doubts. "I don't know...it just feels too easy."Rachel frowned. "What do you mean? We've been working towards this for months."I sighed, feeling a sense of frustration. "I know, but what if we've only scratched the surface? What if there's more to Leo's empire than we think?"Rachel's expression turned thoughtful. "I see what you mean. Maybe we should keep digging."I nodded, determination coursing through my veins. "Let's do it."We spent the next few days pouring over documents, searching for any clues that might lead us to the truth. But every lead we followed seemed to end in a dead-end.I began to feel like I was running in circ
The Heiress Revenge Chapter 24: A Different Case
LISA'S POV As we walked, the city seemed to stretch out before us like a labyrinth. We were just two small players in a much larger game."I don't trust him," Rachel said suddenly, her voice low."Who?" I asked, though I knew the answer."Alex. I don't think he's telling us everything."I nodded, my mind racing. "I know what you mean. But what choice do we have? We need his help to uncover the truth."Rachel's eyes narrowed. "That's exactly what I'm worried about. We're dependent on him for information. What if he's leading us astray?"I didn't have an answer. All I knew was that we had to keep moving forward, no matter the risks.As we turned a corner, a figure emerged from the shadows. It was Alex."I see you're having doubts," he said, his eyes glinting with amusement. "That's good. You should always question the path you're on."Rachel's eyes flashed with anger. "What do you want from us?" she demanded.Alex chuckled. "Oh, I think you know. I want to show you the truth. But you h

It was like nothing I had ever experienced before.Dr. Lee began to explain the science behind the machine, but I found myself tuning out. I was too busy trying to process what I was seeing.Rachel, on the other hand, was completely absorbed. She asked questions and nodded intently, her eyes shining with excitement.I watched her, feeling a sense of pride.

The Heiress Revenge Chapter 26: Shock
LISA'S POVMy eyes fluttered open, and I gasped for air as if I had been underwater for too long. My chest heaved, and my heart raced like a wild animal. Sweat dripped from my forehead, tracing a path down my cheek and onto the pillow. I was drenched, my nightgown clinging to my skin. As I sat up, my hand instinctively went to my heart, as if to calm its frantic beating. I breathed heavily, my mouth open, and my shoulders rose and fell with each ragged inhale and exhale."Oh my god," I whispered, my voice shaking. "It was just a dream." But what a dream. It had felt so real – the portal, the strange world, the woman with blue skin, and the orbs. My mind reeled, trying to process it all.I threw off the covers and ran my hands through my tangled hair, trying to calm myself down. My sheets were soaked with sweat, and I felt like I needed a shower. I took a few deep breaths, trying to slow down my racing heart. I looked around my darkened room, the shadows cast by the moonlight making me
The Heiress Revenge Chapter 27: Frustration
LISA'S POV "You're so selfish," my sister spat at me. "You only care about yourself and what you want. You don't care about anyone else.""That's not true," I shot back. "I care about plenty of people. But I'm not going to let you or anyone else control my life.""Control your life?" my sister laughed. "You're not even in control of yourself. You're just a mess, Lisa. A complete and utter mess."I felt my anger rising, but I tried to keep my cool. "At least I'm not a hypocrite like you," I said. "At least I'm not pretending to be something I'm not.""Oh, and what am I pretending to be?" my sister asked, her voice dripping with sarcasm."You're pretending to be concerned about our family's company," I said. "But really, you're just trying to protect your own interests. You're just trying to make sure you get what you want."My sister's face turned red with anger. "How dare you," she hissed. "I'm trying to protect our family's legacy. Something you clearly don't care about.""I do care

LISA'S POV As I watched, the strange woman Andre had brought to the restaurant glanced over and caught my eye. She raised an eyebrow, a smug smile spreading across her face. I looked away, not wanting to give her the satisfaction of seeing me react.I couldn't help sneaking glances at them as they sat there, enjoying their coffee and pastries. They seemed happy, content. It was like they didn't have a worry in the world.Meanwhile, I was stuck in this restaurant, hiding behind a plant like a coward. I was angry and frustrated, wondering how my life had come to this.

I needed someone to talk to, someone who could help me make Andre pay for what he had done. Marcus, Leo's personal assistant, picked up on the first ring."Ah, Lisa," Marcus said, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "How lovely to hear from you. I was just sitting here, twiddling my thumbs, waiting for your call."I rolled my eyes, despite knowing he couldn't see me. "Marcus, cut the act. I need to speak to Leo.""Oh, Leo," Marcus said, his voice heavy with fake concern. "He's a busy man, Lisa. But I'm sure he'll drop everything to speak to you. After all, you're the love of his life."I gritted my teeth, trying to keep my patience. "Marcus, stop. Just put Leo on the phone.""Fine, fine," Marcus said, sighing dramatically.

LISA'S POV Leo dropped me off, since the wedding wasn't going to take place until my parents knew. As the car door opened, I stepped out onto the driveway, feeling the warm sun on my skin. The sound of the engine faded into the distance as Leo drove away, leaving me alone in front of my childhood home. I took a deep breath, the scent of freshly cut grass and blooming flowers filling my lungs.I walked towards the front door, my heels clicking on the pavement. The door creaked as I pushed it open, and I stepped inside, calling out to my parents. "Mom? Dad? I'm home!"The hallway was dimly lit, the only sound the ticking of the grandfather clock in the corner. I slipped off my shoes and padded across the cool floor, my toes curling over the edge of the rug.As I entered the kitchen, I was greeted by the warm glow of the afternoon sun streaming through the window. My mom was sitting at the table, a cup of tea in front of her, her eyes fixed on the newspaper. She looked up as I entered,
