The return of the Heiress chapter twelve
Chapter twelve.Evelyn's POV.I turned around, holding my breath, and I saw Ethan staring at me standing. "Stay," he mutered. “Don't leave me Olivia.” I let out a sigh of relief as I realized he was sleepwalking.I approached him and slapped him, snapping him out of his somnambulant state. He crashed to the ground. "Bastard," I hissed, my anger boiling over.I kicked him, my eyes blazing with hatred. I detested him with every fiber of my being. I wished I could finish him off right then, but I needed to teach him and Olivia a lesson.I walked past him and Olivia, I paused, turned back, and stood over Olivia. With a swift motion, I slapped her, the sound echoing through the room. "Fool," I spat. If I didn't need to teach these morons a lesson, I would have suffocated them to death. But that would be too easy.Just then my phone buzzed with a text from Alex, asking where I was. I took a deep breath, adjusted my clothes, and stepped out of the mansion gate. I made my way to the slee

Chapter thirteen.Evelyn's POV.I woke up with a pounding headache, the result of a sleepless night spent trying to crack my brain on Alex's motives. Despite my best efforts, I couldn't shake off the feeling that I was missing something. Eventually, I concluded that I might be overthinking everything.I pushed aside my concerns and began my morning routine. After a refreshing shower, I slipped into a sky-blue trouser and a matching suit. I let my hair fall loosely around my shoulders and grabbed my purse.As I walked out of my room, Ethan and Olivia looked up, their eyes fixed on me. Ethan's gaze lingered, and I could sense his admiration. I flipped my hair, flashing a smile, and watched as Olivia pinched him, prompting Ethan to quickly compose himself.I pretended not to notice the exchange and muttered a casual "good morning" as I walked past them to the dining table.Ethan followed, kissing my cheeks, and I could feel Olivia's eyes on us. As much as I wanted to push Ethan away, I

Chapter fourteen.Evelyn's POV.My first instinct was to follow Olivia, but I knew it would be impossible to do so without her noticing. Instead, I returned to my room and carefully pulled back the curtains, watching through the window as she disappeared into the darkness.This was getting worse by the minute. Was this part of her plan with Ethan? Something that could only happen at night?I needed to know what was going on, but as I stood there, my eyelids began to droop. I tried to fight it, but before I knew it, I had dozed off.When I woke up, it was already morning. I cursed myself for falling asleep on the job. I had been supposed to be watching Olivia, not snoozing.With a frustrated hiss, I stepped out of my room, slipped on my slippers, and headed outside, yawning.As I walked outside, I caught sight of Olivia and Ethan laughing together. It seemed they had settled their differences quickly. I needed to think of another plan to cause rift between them.But first, I decided t

Chapter fifteen.Evelyn's POV.I had been staying awake for three consecutive nights, watching Olivia sneak in and out of the house. Tonight, I was determined to follow her and find out what the hell she's up to.Ethan had left for work, and Olivia was busy in the kitchen. I sat on the couch, my eyes fixed on Olivia's phone, which was lying on the couch across from me.I kept glancing back and forth, thinking of how to grab her phone without her noticing. I had a feeling that there was a treasure trove of information on that phone, and I was determined to get my hands on it.I stood up, pacing around the sitting room, trying to appear nonchalant while keeping a close eye on Olivia. I wanted to see if she would notice me, or if she was too distracted by her kitchen chores.I walked over to Olivia's phone, my heart racing with anticipation. Luckily, she was still busy in the kitchen, oblivious to what I was doing.I quickly unlocked her phone, using the password I had memorized from

Chapter sixteen.Evelyn's POV.I hastily grabbed a book from the shelf, trying to create an alibi for when Ethan reviewed the CCTV footage. I wanted him to think I had only come to the office to borrow a book. With the book in hand, I quickly returned to my room, flinging it onto the bed."Fuck!" I exclaimed, one hand on my waist and the other running through my hair. What had I done to make Ethan suspicious of me? I thought I had been careful enough.Just as I was trying to process my thoughts, I heard a loud commotion outside. I quickly stepped out of my room to see what was happening. To my surprise, Ethan had slapped Olivia, leaving her looking shocked and stunned.I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. It seemed like Olivia had finally confronted Ethan, poor thing."How dare you!" Olivia shouted, her voice echoing through the hallway. "Did you think I'm Evelyn? Uhh? You would regret what you just did, I promise you!" She stormed off, climbing the stairs, and I quic

Evelyn's POV.As night fell, I quickly got ready, putting on my hoodie and heavy makeup to disguise myself. I stepped out of the house and headed to my car, parking in a distance where I could observe without being seen.Before long, Olivia's car passed by, and I followed her at a safe distance. She pulled up to a building and stepped out of her car, and I did the same, keeping a low profile.As I watched, Olivia's next action made my eyes widen in shock and my mouth agape, as I struggled to process what I was seeing.I watched in shock as Olivia passionately French-kissed a man. My mind was reeling. What the hell? Was this what Ethan had left me for? A cheater like him? It seemed that people really did attract their own kind.I quickly pulled out my phone and started recording them, trying to capture as much evidence as possible. Olivia paused, giggling, and the man kissed her stomach. My eyes widened as I realized something.If Olivia was cheating on Ethan, then who was the fathe

Chapter Eighteen.Evelyn's POV."What are we going to do?" I asked Alex, feeling a sense of urgency.Alex chuckled and replied, "What do you mean by 'we'?" I raised my eyebrows, incredulous. "You can't be serious," I said, my tone firm. "This is your problem, so you should be saying what you're going to do."I didn't have time for Alex's game right now. He was the least of my problems. I nodded, but before I could respond, Alex said, "I'll just drop you at home."I remembered that my gym outfit was still at the gym, so I mentioned it to Alex. He simply shook his head, and I could sense his frustration. "I'm working with a dumbass," he mumbled but I didn't bother to respond. Alex sped off, and the wait felt like an eternity. When we finally arrived at the gym, I quickly changed into my gym outfit. But as I stepped out, my heart sank. Ethan was standing there, his arms crossed, staring at me with suspicion.My heart began to race as Ethan asked, "Where were you? I searched everywhe

Chapter nineteen.Evelyn's POV.Just then, my door burst open, and I quickly hid my phone under the blanket. I pretended to yawn as Olivia walked in. "You're just waking up," she said, and I nodded, forcing a smile. She nodded too. "I haven't seen you, so I came to check on you. It's getting late." I nodded again, still smiling. "Thank you, that's so nice of you. I'll be out soon." With that, she closed the door. I let out a sigh, about to retrieve my phone, when the door opened again. I quickly hid my phone once more. This time, Olivia just poked her head in. "Are you going to the gym?" she asked. "No," I replied, getting irritated. Why couldn't she just leave me alone?Olivia smiled and closed the door, but I waited before taking out my phone again. I wanted to make sure she wouldn't burst in on me. When the coast was clear, I pulled out my phone and clicked on it. What I saw made my stomach turn - Olivia was having sex with the strange man. I looked away, disgusted, and sho

Chapter forty one.Evelyn's POV.The fork slipped from my hand, clattering to the plate. "You're joking, right?" I asked, disbelieving.Alex shook his head, his expression grim. He spoke briefly into the phone, "I'll call you back. Thanks for the information," before hanging up.I stood up, my mind reeling. "Ethan escaped from prison," Alex had said. The words echoed in my head, and I felt like I was in a daze.Alex called out to me, "Evelyn, Evelyn," but I wasn't listening. I was about to climb the stairs when he grabbed me, spinning me around aggressively. I turned to face him, but my brain was blank, and I couldn't read his expression."Talk to me, Evelyn," Alex said, but I just stared at him, trying to process the news. Ethan's escape meant I was in trouble, and I felt a wave of fear. I gasped.Alex called out to me again, but I didn't respond. He gently tapped my face, trying to snap me out of it.

The return of the Heiress chapter forty
Chapter forty.Evelyn's POV.The next day, Alex and I went to court, where I filed a notice to reopen the case. The reaction was one of surprise, with many assuming my father had ensured justice for the innocent. Little did they know, my hands were tied.Alex shadowed me everywhere, ensuring I didn't do anything unexpected. After we finished in court, we stepped outside, and I was surprised to see paparazzi waiting. My eyes narrowed at Alex, who simply smirked, and I clenched my fists."What’s the meaning of this?" I asked, annoyed. But he simply ignored my existence. Involving the paparazzi wasn’t necessary. Alex stepped closer, wrapped his arm around my shoulders, and whispered, "Smile."I adjusted my sunglasses, forced a smile, and Alex held my hand as the paparazzi swarmed us with questions. "Miss Evelyn, are you really defending Alex?" one of them asked. I ignored the question and pushed through the crowd.Another reporter asked, "You defended your ex-husband on murder charg

Chapter thirty nine.Evelyn's POV.My head felt heavy as I struggled to open my eyes. Finally, I managed to pry them open and found Alex sitting across from me. As soon as he saw I was awake, he stood up and walked over to my bed."How are you feeling?" he asked. I tried to sit up, but he gently held me down. He removed a cold towel from my forehead, and I raised my eyebrows in surprise.My gaze met Alex's, and he explained, "You fainted last night." I could only manage a soft "ohh" before collapsing back onto the bed, feeling overwhelmed. Being around him felt awkward. Then, Alex said, "Open your mouth," and my gaze snapped to him. He was holding a thermometer, which he placed under my tongue. After a moment, he removed it."Your temperature is normal now," he said, and I nodded, laying back down. I could sense he wanted to say something more, but I wasn't interested. Given our situation, I didn't want to be friends with Alex – ever."Sorry," Alex said suddenly, and I turned to

Chapter thirty Eight.Evelyn's POV.He took a step closer, and I backed away until my back hit the wall, trapping me. My heart was racing wildly as Alex loomed over me, his eyes blazing with a cold intensity.I didn't realize I'd whispered "please" until the word was already out, a desperate plea in the face of his unyielding stare.Alex slammed his hands against the wall above my head, his eyes blazing with fury. "What are you doing here?" he thundered. I swallowed hard, sweat trickling down my face despite the chill in the room."Answer me!" he barked. I squeezed my eyes shut, whispering "please" – the only word I could manage. Seeing Alex like this terrified me. I wondered what he would do to me – would he hit me, humiliate me, or something worse?Suddenly, Alex swept me off the floor, dragging me abruptly. "Alex, please!" I begged, but he didn't respond.”Alex! Please don't do this”The maid stood by, watching me with pity in their eyes as Alex's grip held me firm.I stood bef

Chapter thirty seven.Evelyn's POV."Did I say something wrong?" I asked, noticing her sudden change in expression. She shook her head, still frowning, and dropped the napkin she was holding."What do you want from his room?" she asked, her tone guarded. I hesitated, rubbing the back of my neck. "Nothing," I lied, but she clearly didn't believe me.She stared at me knowingly but didn't press the issue. "You can access most rooms, but the boss's room is off-limits," she said."Why?" I asked, feeling a surge of frustration. "I'm not a criminal, if there's anyone who is then he's…." I bit my tongue, realizing I was about to reveal too much.I took a deep breath, composing myself. I opened my eyes and forced a smile, trying to diffuse the tension."I'm sorry about that," I mumbled, trying to appease her. She smiled and said, "It's fine." But I felt like screaming – how could it be fine? She took my hands, her expression softening. "You're like a daughter to me, which is why I'm warn
The return of the Heiress chapter thirty six.
Chapter thirty six.Evelyn's POV.I took the phone and my eyes widened in shock. There was a picture of Alex kissing my cheek, and I had no memory of it. I recalled the day the photos were taken – Alex had insisted on taking pictures, but nothing like this.My gaze darted to Alex, who stood in front of me with a smirk, his hands in his pockets. "What?" he asked, snatching the phone from my hand. He walked closer to me, a mischievous glint in his eye. "Imagine what would happen if I post this online and tell everyone we're in a relationship. What do you think people would say?""Don't even think about it," I warned, but he just chuckled. "Shh," he said, placing his hand over my mouth. "If I post this, people will think you had your husband locked up so you could cheat on him with me," Alex said, his words making my eyes widen in horror.Alex was despicable, and the look in his eyes told me he wasn't just bluffing. I hated this more than anything, feeling trapped and helpless.I bit
The return of the Heiress chapter thirty five
Chapter thirty five.Evelyn's POV.I couldn't believe what Alex had said. If my dad had pressed charges against his family for money laundering and drugs, it meant they were guilty. I couldn't defend someone who had committed such crimes. That would make me no better than Ethan and Olivia.Moreover, my dad had brought the charges, and Alex was expecting me to call him a liar. That was something I couldn't do.I slammed my hands against the wall, cursing my own stupidity. "Damn it!" I exclaimed, wincing in pain. Defending Alex would ruin my law firm's reputation - too much was at stake.I had to get out. Taking a deep breath, I headed to the window. The second-floor drop was risky, but I didn't care. Staying with Alex was already a nightmare.I closed my eyes, feeling a wave of desperation. Could I ever find happiness? It seemed like every time I thought I could, something came crashing down. I was allergic to happiness, it seemed. With a surge of anger, I prepared to make my escape.
The return of the Heiress Thirty four
Chapter thirty four.Alex's POV.Her face turned cold, and I chuckled. "What's wrong? Cat got your tongue?" I asked, but she remained silent, staring at me. I continued, "I'm only asking you to defend me for money laundering and drugs. Why are you acting like I'm proposing?"Her expression changed, and she finally spoke up. "Did you get involved in money laundering and drugs?" she asked.I nodded. "Yes, I did. And there's evidence, thanks to your father," I said, my anger rising.She looked confused. "My father? What does he have to do with this?" she asked.I wanted to confront her about her father's past actions, which had ruined my family. But I bit my tongue, knowing this wasn't the time for banters."Your father didn't get the facts straight," I said, my anger boiling over. "He accused my family of money laundering and drugs, pressed charges, and manipulated the outcome. We were wrongly convicted."As expected, she defended her father, saying; “My father would never lie. He's a

Chapter thirty three.Evelyn's POV.I groaned, slowly opening my eyes. My head felt heavy, and I shut them again, trying to shake off the haze. When I opened them again, everything was blurry. I closed my eyes once more and tried again, this time focusing slowly.As my vision cleared, I struggled to sit up, looking around the unfamiliar room. It didn't resemble my room or Ethan's. This room was larger, painted a soft pink, with white curtains.My gaze wandered to the king-size bed, which was also pink, including the bedsheets. The dressing table matched the pink theme. For a moment, I thought my drunkenness was playing tricks on me. I closed my eyes and opened them again – everything still looked the same."Where am I?" I wondered, feeling a surge of panic. I can't remember anything from yesterday aside me going home after the court case.I wanted to call out for help, but a part of me suspected I might be kidnapped, and alerting whoever was holding me might not be the best idea.I
