The Heiress Revenge Chapter 32: More Energy
LISA'S POV I stood up from the bed, my movements swift and deliberate. My sister's eyes widened in surprise, but I didn't give her a chance to ask any more questions. I knew that if I lingered, she would pry and probe, trying to get more information out of me. And I wasn't ready to give it to her. Not yet.I turned and walked out of her room, the soft carpet muffling my footsteps as I made my way back down the hallway. My mind was racing with thoughts and emotions, but I pushed them all aside, focusing on the task at hand. I needed to get some rest.I entered my own room, closing the door softly behind me. The room was quiet and dark, the only sound the soft hum of my alarm clock on my nightstand. I moved swiftly, switching off the lamp and plunging the room into darkness.I walked over to my bed, feeling my way through the darkness. I slipped off my shoes and socks, letting out a soft sigh as my feet sank into the plush carpet. I climbed into bed, feeling the softness of the blanket
The Heiress Revenge Chapter 33: A Cup Filled Up
LISA'S POV As my mom left the room, Liam turned to me with a mischievous grin. "So, ma'am What's the real story with Leo? What's going on?"I rolled my eyes, laughing. "I wish I knew. That's why I hired you, remember?"Liam chuckled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Oh yeah, I remember. You want me to dig up all the dirt on him."I nodded, my expression serious. "I need to know what I'm dealing with. He's been acting so strange, and I don't trust him."Liam's expression turned thoughtful. "I've been doing some digging, and I think I've found something interesting."My ears perked up, my heart racing with excitement. "What is it?"But before Liam could answer, my mom burst back into the room, a look of exasperation on her face. "Lisa, come on! You need to get ready. Leo will be here soon."I groaned, laughing. "Mom, I'm coming."Liam stood up, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "I think I'll let you go get ready. But we'll talk more later, okay?"I nodded, smiling. "Definitely."A
The Heiress Revenge Chapter 34: At Your Mercy
LISA'S POV The room was filled with an air of anticipation as everyone waited for Leo's arrival. My family and Liam were all seated in the living room, each busy with their own phones, their faces bathed in the soft glow of screens.But I couldn't sit still. I paced back and forth across the room, my hands clenched into fists as I tried to contain my nervous energy. I felt like a caged animal, ready to burst free at any moment.Liam watched me from his seat on the couch, his eyes filled with a mixture of concern and understanding. He knew I was anxious, and he was trying to be supportive.My mom glanced up from her phone, her eyes meeting mine for a brief moment before returning to her screen. She was trying to stay calm, but I could sense her own nervousness beneath the surface.My dad was oblivious to the tension, too engrossed in his phone to notice anything else. Louisa, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying my discomfort, a small smile playing on her lips as she watched me pa
The Heiress Revenge Chapter 35: Second Thought
LISA'S POV My father's face turned red with rage, his eyes bulging with anger. "How dare you," he thundered, his voice shaking with fury. "How dare you defend him after everything he's done to us."I stood my ground, my heart pounding in my chest. "I'm not defending him, Dad," I said. "I'm defending our relationship. I love him, and he loves me. That's all that matters."Louisa laughed, a cold, mirthless sound. "You're so naive, Lisa," she sneered. "You really think he loves you? He's just using you to get back at us."I felt a pang of doubt, but I pushed it aside. I knew what I felt, and I knew what Leo felt. We loved each other, and that's all that mattered."Enough," my mother said, her voice firm. "This is getting out of hand."But my father was beyond reason. "You're going to regret this, Lisa," he shouted. "You're going to regret the day you ever met him."I felt tears pricking at the corners of my eyes, but I refused to cry. I knew I had made the right decision, and I was goin
The Heiress Revenge Chapter 36: Distance
LISA'S POV I glanced over at him, taking in the strong lines of his profile. He was lost in thought, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. But as he sensed my gaze, he turned to me, his eyes softening into a gentle smile."Hey," he said quietly, his voice low and soothing. "You okay?"I nodded, feeling a lump form in my throat. "Yeah," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "I'm okay."Leo's smile faltered for a moment before he reached out and took my hand, his fingers intertwining with mine in a gesture of comfort and support."We'll get through this," he said quietly. "Together.”I wondered why he was been so nice. I couldn't help but be surprised by the calm tone in Leo's voice as he spoke to me. I knew he was only pretending to care, but a part of me wondered if maybe, just maybe, he was being genuine. I had seen him use his charm and good looks to get what he wanted before, but there was something in his eyes that made me question my doubts.As he told me that he wanted to marr
The Heiress Revenge Chapter 37: Made Decisions.....
LISA'S POV Liam's eyes locked onto mine, his gaze burning with an intensity that made my skin prickle. "Lisa, listen to me," he said, his voice low and urgent. "You need to go home. Now."I raised an eyebrow, feeling a surge of defiance. "Why? What's going on?"Liam glanced around the room, his eyes darting towards Leo, who was watching us with an unreadable expression. "This isn't the right time or place for this conversation," he muttered. "But trust me, you need to get out of here before things escalate."I hesitated, unsure of what to do. But Liam's words struck a chord deep within me. I knew he was right. This wasn't the time or place for a confrontation."Okay," I said finally, nodding. "I'll go."Liam's face relaxed, his shoulders sagging in relief. "Good," he said. "And Lisa?"I turned to him, my heart pounding in my chest. "Yeah?""Tell Leo to back off, okay? His behavior towards your family isn't helping. If he wants to win your father over, he needs to show some respect."

My mum, dad, and sister were already outside, their faces twisted with anger."Great," I muttered, feeling a sense of dread. "They're already here."Liam glanced over at me, his eyes sympathetic. "You okay?"I shook my head, feeling a sense of resignation. "No, I'm not. But thanks for asking."Liam nodded, his expression understanding. "I'm going to drop you off and go. I don't want to be involved in this anymore."I nodded, feeling a sense of relief. "Thanks, Liam. I appreciate it."As Liam pulled up to the curb, my family began to stalk towards us, their faces furious."Lisa, get out of the car now!" my mum shouted, her voice shrill.I sighed, feeling a sense of exhaustion. "I'm coming, I'm coming."Liam leaned over and opened the door for me, his eyes locked on mine. "You okay?" he whispered.I nodded, feeling a sense of gratitude. "Yeah, thanks."As I stepped out of the car, my family closed in

LISA'S POV I suddenly remembered that there was one person I hadn't tried talking to yet - my mum. I decided to go to her, hoping that she could help me find a way to get my dad to accept Leo.I found my mum in the kitchen, cooking dinner. She looked up as I entered, and I could see the concern in her eyes."Lisa, what's wrong?" she asked, putting down the spoon she was using.I took a deep breath and explained everything to her - about my dad's refusal to accept Leo, about my sister's anger, about my own frustration and desperation.My mum listened attentively, her expression growing more and more serious."Lisa, I know your dad is stubborn," she said when I finished. "But this time, it's not just about being stubborn. He's scared."I was taken aback. "Scared? What do you mean?"My mum hesitated before answering. "He's scared to give you to Leo in marriage. He thinks it's risky."I felt a surge of anger. "Risky? What does that even mean?"My mum sighed. "Your dad and Leo's family ha
