“Yes, your fiancé. He was the one that brought you here from the basement. He said he didn’t know how you got to a basement 200 km from your office, that he was able to determine your location because of a tracking device that he inserted in your phone case without your knowledge.” Mrs. Garcia explained to her daughter.
“He planted a tracker on me?!” Rachel asked, stunned with her eyes widened open.
She quickly checks her tone to see if she isn’t as loud as she thought she was.
That dumb shit planted a tracker on her?
Rachel quickly checked her memories to see if she had any memories of when she realized that a tracker was planted on her. But she wasn’t able to see any record of it.
Poor girl, Araceli didn’t even know that the man she loved and thought they were going to be married planted a tracker on her.
But no worries, She is now the New Araceli and she would make sure that he saw hell if he didn't reside in it.
“Yeah Sweetie, he said it was for safety reasons. He will soon be back” Mrs. Garcia answered back as she took a slice of apple and offered it to her daughter.
Rachel quickly opened her mouth as if it was the most natural act in the world. Mrs. Garcia smiled at her lovingly when she saw that she was accepting the food she offered.
It means her daughter still remembers somehow, she was really happy she could feel her beatings.
She looked at her husband with a smile and her eyes filled with unexplainable emotions.
Mr. Garcia who knew exactly how she was feeling gently patted her hand and nodded in acknowledgment.
“I feel sleepy mum, ” Rachel said when she saw that her eyelids were slowly closing.
“Yes, yes. We will go home now and bring more clothes for you to change in.” We have assigned a five-star hotel nearby to cook your favorite meal. There are several maids' staff outside your door. You just have to press on this walkie-talkie and someone who immediately comes in, ” Mrs. Garcia brought out a portable black walkie-talkie and placed it in Araceli’s hand.
“Mom, Dad. Can I stay with Big sister?” Ace looked up at his parents with a pleading tone.
He really wanted to be with his big sister.
He was so scared when she didn't open her eyes for the last three days, he almost thought she was going to go away as Ben did.
Ben was Ace’s pet dog that was given by Araceli on his 9th Birthday.
His father bought him a PS5, while his mum gave him an iPhone 11 pro max. They were all good toys but what he really wanted was a dog and it was only his big sister Araceli that gave him what he actually wanted.
But Ben became sick and went to heaven.
Seeing his sad and pouty face, Mr. & Mrs. Garcia decided to leave the little boy with his beloved big sister.
Since he was the only one that Araceli remembers then maybe he can stimulate her brains so she can remember them too.
“Alright Ace man, stay with your big sister and protect her okay,” Mr. Garcia said to his son and ruffled his curly hair.
“Yes, Dad. I will protect her and I won't allow any bad monster to come near her.” Ace replied and demonstrated power rangers fighting stance.
Rachel couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at the young boy's determined look and his funny stance.
He really meant business.
“We will be on her way now.” Mr. Garcia said to his kids as he wrapped his hand around his wife‘s waist and escorted her outside of the hospital room.
On their way out, Mrs. Garcia couldn't help but ask her husband worriedly.
“Are you sure Aracelia would be okay?”
When Mr. Garcia heard her voice, he gently smiled in assurance.
“The doctor already assured us that she will be okay, so she should be. But if you are not assured we can invite Dr. Finn to come and inspect her so he can give us better assurance.”
“Yes, I think you should inform Dr. Finn so he can fly back from Italy immediately she got discharged here. So he can assure us that she's okay.” Mrs. Garcia answered back to her husband as she sniffed.
“Hush now, she's okay. Nothing will happen to our daughter.” Mr. Garcia said to his wife as he brought her closer to him and hugged her.
Meanwhile, in the hospital room. Ace was busy looking after his big sister as he watched her sleep.
That mean guy said he's coming back later, he wasn't as good looking as his sister but he always took his sister away from him.
His parents said the mean guy would soon be his brother but he didn't want an ugly-looking brother.
He will wait here and make sure that the Ugly guy didn't come anywhere near his sister.
Ace was already asleep with his head on the bedside when Xander entered the hospital room in a black tailored suit.
Immediately he entered, Ace's eyes sprang open. He could perceive his cologne 10 feet away, it was some strong expensive cologne that makes someone with a nice taste in perfume wanna puck.
Ace looked at him sternly as he was about to approach his sister.
“Don’t come closer!” Ace blocked his way as he tried to move closer.
“Ace, it's me. What are you doing! Let me go and see her.” Xander replied sternly when he saw the little frame blocking his way.
Hmph! The little boy puffed,“You? Who are you? I don't know you. Leave here.”
Seeing his rude manner, Xander frowned in hatred. How did Aracelia who was a gentle and meek girl have this stubborn and unreasonable boy as her brother?.
Maybe it was due to their age differences. Aracelia was 15 years older than her brother.
“Who are you?”
“Who are you? Rachel asked again when she saw that Xander wasn't replying but only looking at her dumbfounded. It wasn't as if she didn't recognize him, she recognized him quite well because she already processed all of Araceli’s memory as she knew he was the Xander that betrayed and set Araceli up.That scum!“Araceli, What did you mean by “who am I?” I'm your fiance!” Xander replied as he frowned. What’s wrong with her?Is she playing?Why is he acting like she didn't remember him?Did she remember and play him? He had no choice but to do it so he would be able to break his engagement with her and marry Alic
Rachel turned her head and looked back at Xander and replied to him. “Of Course I remember Alice, we've been friends since I was twelve. Where is she? I've not seen her since I woke up.”Baffled the doctor asked. “But you didn't remember her this morning while your parents were here, ”“Doctor, I remember my parents now, after sleeping I was able to recover bits of my memory,” Rachel told the doctor in a slow voice.“How come you didn't remember me then?” Xander asked, a bit annoyed.Though it's good that she didn't remember the incident, why didn't she remember him? People will think there wasn't love between them.Not that there was but at least for a facade.“How about I call her here for you?” Xander asked.
Rachel took another glass of water and dropped it down carefully while she accessed Alice's expression.That good for nothing backstabbing bitch was having a hard time showing remorse for her supposed-to-be best friend.Rachel couldn't help but feel sorry for Araceli knowing how sweet and kind she was to her even at her time of early departure.A rush of emotions and anger flooded her from within as she looked at the two horrible people in front of her.The more reason she needed to stay in control and make these bastards pay for what they put Araceli through since she was now in her body."Yes, Xander brought me here, " Rachel said with a vile taste
Spending my last few hours in the hospital made me more excited, thrilled and scared at the same time. I was going to finally see how Araceli lived and the clothes she wore, the food she ate knowing her lifestyle will be totally different from mine and blending in without invoking suspicion.The door suddenly swung open and Ace came rushing in with his spiderman T-shirt, black shorts, and white trainers.Rachel watched as he jumped on the bed excitedly swinging my hand left to right, clearly excited and enthusiastic about having his big sister come home after almost two weeks at the hospital."Ara"!"Ara"!"Ara"
"Okay Miss, if you say so," The elderly maid replied skeptically."I am fine Antonia,”Rachel found herself saying with a warm smile.Antonia?!So that's her name…Antonia smiled back and turned to go gently.After she left, Rachel got lost in her thoughts, realizing even though she had transmigrated into Araceli's body, she still carried her past life with her.She was just in Araceli's body but she didn't dislike or react to the things Araceli liked, she was still the same old Rachel.Wednesday 7:30The sun forced its way through the big window and way too expensive curtain and reached her on her bed, Rachel turned and faced
A knock resonated through Rachel's office interrupting the company production records. She had to say, Araceli did a pretty good job managing such a complicated and diverse company such as this one, Every unit in the organization was well sorted and performed well with well filed reports on sales,production and welfare. It made it easy for her to know what she was doing and where she was heading to. Her secretary walked in as she finally discarded her cloud of thoughts while she made a mental appointment to meet all the heads of various departments. The petite woman in front of her wore a navy blue office skirt and a white floral blouse with low black heels and a tied up ponytail giving her face sharper features
Was he dreaming or did Araceli just yell in a public space? He hasn’t seen that much fury or anger before, especially not from the ever calm and meek Araceli which he found boring but now...Now she has ALL of his attention. I mean was it possible for someone to develop a strong and outstanding personality over one strange ass journey, because if that is possible, he will like to take all his exes to conversion therapy because of their dry ass humor.He completely forgot about the hostess he was flirting with and ran out to meet Araceli and met her waiting for her ride outside."Araceli"!!!"Urghhhhh" Rachel groaned internally.
Chapter 11:Signing her first dealToday is the day she has been waiting for. She was both excited but nervous, enthusiastic but worried at the same time. The future of the company depended on this deal she was going to pitch today. Araceli has been working on the deal for over 6months with a whole research base and backup file, she knows that the contract wasn't only important to the company but to Araceli too, this was most of her life's work, hence why she couldn't afford to mess it up.She got up an hour before her alarm due to her restlessness, so she decided to take a run to clear her mind, A run and a good coffee will keep her straight,so she left the house at 6:27 am jogging up to her estate.The sun had partially risen and the air was cool again her face but she could feel the sl
"Araceli..""Yandel…Cole…""Sorry for being late your honor.." Araceli said with a confident smirk. All three of them walked in and it felt good, everyone had their jaws hanging down and eyes bulging out. Mrs Garcia was already on her feet about to run to hug her daughter while Amy stood there in tears. Ricky, Ben and Mariah were all on the same row, jaws hanging down in surprise. Emily and Nathan were totally unmoved instead, smiling proudly at their brother in a well tailored suit with Araceli by his side and Cole in jeans and black T like he always wore."And sorry for not being late as you guys thought I was.." Yandel said smiling at the crowd but especially at the man who was in a gray tailored suit and his hair was drawn back and held together by gel sitting beside Alice and Xander. The whole Miller family had a missed reaction but one of them in particular had his eye out of his socket more than the rest."Order court!! I will not condone such an insolent act in my court!!" He
Rachel"The Millers!!!" I yelled but paused again."Wait, they actually aren't the only ones you know…they are actually more of them, the Preston's, even the Azariah and I know all of the Xander's investments and none if it has nothing to do with the news outlets. I have gone through his papers before, his original documents that he had locked in a safe, that's how I knew he wasn't that smart to pull off all that happened," I told him my face dropping. What could Mister Douglas Miller, Alexander's father possibly want from us, that he would need me dead. Whoever this person was, has a good reason to kill me or want me dead but he also didn't make any sense.As for my father, not even I knew of the several women he has gone around with that my mother was very much aware of, but no one knew exactly why he did it. Sleeping with a married man's wife. So Mr Miller could have his reason for doing it, each of the Miller were suspects now and even Alice."Look, go freshen up okay, clean yours
Rachel"Hmm, you seem to like this place a lot huh.. Maybe you could join me, we would make a fun pair…" A familiar voice joked beside me. The familiarity of the voice was enough to spread chills all over my body, at the same time, soothe the burning feeling at the back of my head. It felt like my eyes were open yet closed, I could see her but I couldn't see anything else, just her."Araceli…" I called her name lightly before I felt my chest burn."Am I dead this time, did i make it this time around??" I asked her, looking at her smile so pretty at me, it was almost like staring at my reflection but the prototype. Even by mere looking at her I could see how much different she looked from me, she looked sharper while I was much more blunt on the edges "Isn't that a little narcissistic?? Staring and admiring me when I'm you.." She teased as I rolled my eyes in reflex."There's no way I'm you. I asked before who I was here and you never gave me an answer but now I see the answer clear a
"This is taking too long, we need to check up on him. I mean how long is it gonna take for the police and back up to get here?? Acting like we have the who goddamn day doing nothing but sitting down looking pretty and empty as hell," She looked at her mom hoping her whinig was going to get to her she was going to try and tell her to go in there and ask what's going on."You need to take a chill pill okay, for all we know, he got bigger fish to fry and you going there will just be getting in his way and taking up all his planned tattics and throwing them away. So no, Araceli, you are going to seat your impatient self down and wait till he is back," She continued typing and face timing on Ace's laptop since it was the only laptop available. For the past thirty minutes, she had been trying her best to just sit calm and enjoy the silence and sound of keyboard clicking but it was getting suffocating.It was already passed twenty five minutes and he wasn't back yet and he was yet to contact
Xander"Watch where you are going bro!! F!ck" My shirt had a little of starbuck strawberry shit on me and I knew with in seconds, I was going to start feeling so sticker and uncomfortable.I spilled several curses as I walked from my private gym to Where I was suppose to meet Alice. I don't know why of all places she couldn't just choose some where we could both be comfortable with a little less human interact."Hey, hey...Mr Miller right?" The man who ran into me came back and I held myself from groaning out loud. What the fuck does he want for fuck sake. I'm just trying to get to my meet up hoping I get lucky with her today because she has been acting extra weird ever since Saturday evening we had a fall out. She barely replied my text and after I sent a whole bunch of texts, she sends a cool or fine. It became increasingly over bearing so I decided to come to the gym and put some of my frustration into lifting some irons and honestly, it actually does work.Out of like ten, I was
They were only half way through watching lilo and stitch which Ben has probably watched for the twentieth time in the past four months. He still had the fire to watch it again, which was honestly amazing. Lilo and Stitch was a classic but Ricky was already tired of seeing it and was beginning to get really pissed off at Stitch's voice. It sounded like a really REALLY bad recording from the past, even though it was used as an alien voice, it was still really annoying to listen to.He decided to adjust his position in Ben's warm arms but found out that he had already slept off, and he was the one who changed the channel. Ricky tried to stand up to put the TV off and drink some water but he coiled his arms around him tighter and turned over so they weren't facing the light of the TV. Ricky stretched for the remote and turned off the TV so that they could sleep well.Just a few minutes after he made this life changing important decision as he himself was feeling really exhausted from the
"It's why I'm out here. I came to take him back then I realized that he didn't know me and you guys were not in the hanger so I headed back to the Car to see if anyone approached it. Don't worry about my wound, the cook there helped me clean up my wounds and stopped the blood loss and took out the mic they pull under my skin," He explained further as he stretched his arm. He looked behind me and Mrs Garcia and saw Ace holding a taser in his direction."F*ck...the whole family is actually like this.." He shook his head then decided to crank his neck making a cracking sound into the night."Do you even know how to use a taser?" He asked Ace, who looked at him cockingly."I have watched enough videos and I think lama is still passed out back at home, i hope they find a way to wake her up," He said proudly and I smiled till may brain processed the information that he just spewed and I realized that this boy electrocuted the cat in our household, which made sense why I didn't see the cling
I pressed the gun in his direction and he screamed...literally. I looked at him as his face turned to the palest form od white after pulling such a stunt on him. A click sound echoed in the night night showing that the shell was empty making him breath heavily."That's for keeping us twenty two minutes late," I smirked at him before walking past him making sure my elbow brushed his and walked up to the car signaling one of the guards to help take our luggages from the big SUV that was meant for the guards to drive. She wanted a more elaborate way of moving our things but I managed to convince her that we needed to move secretively without being noticed."That gave me a f*cking scare. What the hell was that about anyways, between you and your mom??" He picked a brown channel travel bag that was one of the monthly calendar gifts to our family."I don't know, years of vex, the fact that she ruined me of all the friends i made here in months, made them hate me and after that, she had the
Rachel"Do you have your bags and passports??" Mrs Garcia asked, holding my hands as we sat at the back seat of her favorite vintage 1965 which she only used for special occasions like when she was invited to Washington to make a speech in a forum that had some of the world's most b important people."Mum...the vintage," I stared at the Mustang and she smiled proudly at it."If not That I would be tagged as a loco puta. I would have named her my third child, she's so beautiful, isn't she??" She said with a dreamy look in her eyes as she looked at the car shining in its glory from the light Cole's private hanger had. The place was empty and we had guards to extra survey the area before we alighted.The place was huge as hell, the tarmacs to the runway lighting, it looked like a full mini airport and it was beautiful and there also happened to be a private restaurant just behind the huge garage that housed the plane. The name was something I didn't bother to read as the food called my
