Chapter 126

Present...

"For twenty years, I've been delusional... No, I wasn't. He made me like that. Even though I saw everything with my eyes, I couldn't do anything. He told me that my Mom fell and died. He fucking lied to me, not knowing that I saw everything. Do you know the nightmare I had to suffer every fucking day of my life? Do you have any idea what I had to endure all those years, and when Grandpa heard about it, what did he do? He covered up for his son and didn't bother to get justice for my Mom!" More tears streamed down Janice's cheeks as she narrated, her voice was filled with pain, her eyes were filled with pain, anger, and the thirst for vengeance.

Knox stared in shock, his mouth hanging open. He couldn't believe his ears. He could feel his heart hurting, his blood went cold, and his soul left his body for a moment, and he swallowed nothing. The imagination never hit him for once that she was going through this shit. How could his uncle have done something so cruel?

    Chapter 127"What should we do, Mason? We need to report to the police right away," Aliyah said worriedly, checking the wall clock in the living room."We are going to do that soon. We have about two hours left before he can be reported missing," Mason replied to her, and she scoffed angrily. This was already driving her nuts, and she was on the verge of losing her mind with those same words every damn single time."Are you kidding me? Why do we need to wait for exactly twenty-four hours before he can be reported missing, huh? We both know that Knox doesn't sleep outside, and something must be wrong somewhere. His line is not even connecting, so how could you still ask to wait for twenty-four hours when we can report right away so the police can start the search?" She couldn't hold back her anger this time, so she busted and he sighed."You should calm down, Aliyah. The police will ask you to wait for twenty-four hours if you go there now. Can you just be a bit calm, please?" Tate tri

    Chapter 128Knox stared into space like someone that has just seen a ghost. Memories of what happened within a few hours earlier wouldn't stop replaying in his head all over again. How he was stuck in that hollow pit and thought for a moment that he was going to lose his life, how he was being drowned in there, but the pain there was nothing, compared to the one he has been feeling after realizing why Janice has been doing this. He has lost his parents, and he knew what it feels like, especially witnessing the death and still being lied to."Are you ok?" Aliyah asked him, pulling him out of his trance, and he glanced at her."Hmm. I'm fine," he nodded his head, but she wasn't going to be fooled by his reply because it was written all over him that he was not fine. He was hiding his pain, but unfortunately, she knew him so well that she would know at once whenever he was trying to hide his pain."You're not. Are you bothered about something?" Aliyah took his hand and gave it a gentle s

    Chapter 129Living a sweet life in a happy home while growing up with her parents who seemed to be madly in love when she was just five was everything she wished for. She wished that love would've continued to bloom until now. She had hoped her life didn't stop being sweet abruptly, but in a world where that monster existed, then this was bound to happen. She didn't want to be like this, but this was the villain the wicked world created."Here," Janice's thoughts were interrupted as someone handed her a glass of wine, and she tilted her head to find Lee standing beside her and holding a glass of wine too."Thank you," she muttered after she took the glass from him, and he hummed."Do you want to talk about it?" Lee asked, leaning over the rail of the balcony as he stared into space. It was a beautiful and cozy evening, but in a world full of nightmares, no day was ever beautiful to this young lady whose childhood and her entirety has been ruined by the one person that was supposed to

    Chapter 130Tate drove into the big compound of one of the fancy restaurants in town, and pulled over at the parking lot, alighting from the car. He was clad in a pair of black velvet trousers and a buttoned-down shirt that had the collar arranged carefully. The long sleeve was rolled up to his elbow, and his hair was styled beautifully like a boy in his teen. He was looking bright and excited.He strode to the backseat of the car and pulled the door open, revealing the sexy-looking Shirley, clad in a beautiful short flowery gown that stopped just above her knees, clinging to her body and revealing her sexy shape that could drive any man wild. She had a little make-up on her face, and her black lengthy hair was packed up in a ponytail with some strands falling at each side of her face. She was extremely beautiful in her dress. When she finally stepped out of the car while holding on tightly to Tate that went to help her out, her pair of expensive heeled shoes were exposed. The shoes s

    Chapter 131At the hotel roomTate took her from the restaurant earlier after the incident, and drove to the nearest hotel where he lodged a room for them so she could change her dress. "I'm sorry about earlier. I'll try to talk to Mom," he apologized to her after she walked out of the bathroom, clad in a white robe."It's fine. I'm glad I was able to let it off my chest. How was I back there? Was I cool?" Although she was broken and bittered deep inside, she managed to cover everything up with a smile."Yes, you were really cool, and I'm proud of you," he replied to her, and she smiled brightly."About my dress. Has it been washed yet?" She asked because the dress was taken away to the laundry as soon as they came into the hotel room."Oh, that? I guess they are still working on it. I already ordered a dress to be delivered here..." He paused and checked his wristwatch."They should be here any moment from now," he further said and stood up from the bed."You didn't have to order a

    Chapter 132 His heart fluttered as he watched Aliyah clean his body passionately with a towel. Having this woman in his life was a blessing to him, and losing her would've been a nightmare he may never be able to get out of. Aliyah noticed how he was staring at her, and her cheeks heated as she blushed, but she was quick enough to pretend she didn't notice anything. "Thank you for everything, babe," Hearing that from him, she stopped and stared at him for a moment, then smiled and slowly nodded her head and continue what she was doing. "Thank you for always being here with me, and thank you for never leaving even when I never deserved you," This time, she was forced to facepalm herself because she couldn't take it anymore so she could only blush hard. "It's fine," She mumbled, covering her face, and he scoffed as a smile lingered on his face. At that moment, the door opened and the doctor walked inside, and Aliyah quickly stood up from the bed and turned to face the doctor. "How a

    Chapter 133 "How're you feeling now?" Mason asked Knox as they stood side by side in the garden. Knox was still clad in the hospital wears since he hasn't been discharged yet. "I'm much better now. I'm sorry I haven't allowed you to have time for yourself lately. Everything is going to be over soon, and I'm forever indebted to you for everything you've done for me," He said to Mason. "Anything for my best friend. So, how's Aliyah? Is she completely healed now?" Mason asked him, and he nodded his head. "Yes. The wound is already closed, although she's still on medication. Also, the doctor asked us to come to the hospital biweekly to get her checked," He explained to Mason, and he nodded his head. "What about Tate?" Mason asked. "He has personal shits to deal with too, so he's taking some time off since Aliyah is here with me. I think his Dad's health is still deteriorating," He replied to Mason. "That's sad..." Mason commented and breathed out. "I spoke with Janice..." Mason sna

    Chapter 134A few days later...Finding out everything that happened to Janice was still a nightmare Aliyah didn't seem like she would ever be able to come out of. After realizing the truth, she has been having mixed feelings about it. "Are you kidding me? You still want to go see her even after what happened?" She scoffed when Knox told her that she had an appointment with Janice and was going to see her."Come on, it's nothing to panic about," he tried to touch her, but she stepped away from him and shook her head."That's crazy, Knox. You know this person we are talking about might not like your presence. Are you trying to commit suicide? Going to meet her is as good as...""Come on, babe. You are just being paranoid. I need to see her, ok? I promise, I'm not going to stay long over there, and I will be safe, ok?" He finally held her around the waist and assured her."But...""Shhhh! I know you're worried, but you have no reason to. I promise to come back to you in one piece, ok?"

    Chapter 148 Two weeks later Aliyah tossed on the bed for the umpteenth time, lazy to get off the bed. Her eyes felt heavy and her head wasn't exempted from the feeling. "What's this?" She mumbled as she finally managed to sit up on the bed, rubbing her fingers gently on her forehead while groaning in pain. Knox has traveled on a business trip since three days and she was left here by herself all alone. Her Mom only comes by once in a while, and now that Tate's fiancee is pregnant and also they were planning to get married, he didn't have enough time to come by. Mason has been busy with work and his girlfriend too, while Janice and Lee traveled on a honeymoon trip to Italy, so she was left here all alone by herself. "I should've just gone with Knox," she regretted her hesitance to go with Knox when he asked her to. "It's just five days you are going to spend there, so it's fine," She had said to him when he asked her to come with him, but now it felt like he has been gone for thre

    Chapter 147A lot has happened in the last few weeks. James and Janice have sorted things out, and even after all the hatred, James realized his mistake and asked Janice for forgiveness, and to make up for everything that has happened in the past, he said he was going to take the blame for all the things Janice has done in the past. Janice was going to turn herself in, but he refused. To him, it was all his fault and he should take the blame for everything and let Janice live her life like nothing happened. Besides, she still had a whole lot ahead of her and he didn't want to be in jail.James was put on trial after series of investigation which all proved that he was the culprit, and found guilty of murder, taking the blame for his daughter and going to jail in her place so she could have a good life ahead.

    Chapter 146Aliyah stared at her reflection in the mirror, and as she thought about what happened in these past few months, then she could only be grateful that everything although would remain in her heart forever, was always going to be memories to her.Knowing that everything was over now, she was finally at peace. No reason to worry when her husband leaves the house, no need to worry that some assassin might break into the house and harm her. There was nothing to worry about, but most importantly, having her parents alive and healthy was what she was most grateful for, but it hurts knowing that her stepdad died protecting her Mom. He never deserved to die.The sound of the shower in the bathroom finally stopped after a while, and the door opened, revealing Knox. His body was dripping wet and his hair was damp. He had a white towel wrapped around his waist and a little bulge down there."Hey..." He smiled brightly as he walked over to the closet and picked out his robe, dropping it

    Chapter 145"I'm scared, Tate. Are you sure about this?" Shirley asked after they alighted from the car."Come on, I told you that there's no cause to be scared. I'm here for you... We are in this together," Tate cupped her cheek in his palms and assured her, looking into her eyes. As planned, Shirley was going to move in to live with Mrs. Andrews. This was the only thing she could do, she was determined to do it earlier, but now that she was here, her fear was already taking over her. What if her plans fail later? What if she ends up getting thrown out of the house? What if she insists that she can't marry her son? What will become of her."I told you there's nothing to worry about. Why do you look so scared like my Mom is a masquerade," He pinched her cheeks playfully, but deep inside he knew that there was really need for her to be worried knowing the kind of tough person his Mom was."Come on, smile for me," He uttered, and she forced a smile."Wait while I go get your things from

    Chapter 144A few days later Knox pulled over at the parking lot of the restaurant and stepped out of the car. He then proceeded toward the entrance door, and found Janice waiting for him as soon as he walked inside. She had texted him yesterday and asked them to meet at the restaurant this morning so they could talk about something important, and that had made him curious since last night as many negative thoughts won't stop coming to his mind. Did she change her mind about turning herself in? That was one of the questions he kept asking himself, but he would soon find out about it, anyway."Hi! Did I keep you waiting?" He asked when he got to where she was seated, pulling out the chair across from her and settling in it."Not really. Good morning," She forced a smile at him, tucking her hair behind her ear. She was cladded in a short black armless gown and a pair of black heels like someone going to a funeral."Why is she dressed in all black? Is she planning to do something evil?"

    Chapter 143It was a beautiful morning and a special day for Lee and Janice as it was their first day going out as official couples. Janice stared at her reflection in the mirror, trying everything she could to hold back her tears. It was a great day for her, a day she should push all the negative energies away and focus on her man so they could have fun to the fullest, but knowing that this moment won't last long for them was something she couldn't hold herself back for."It's ok, Janice. You already said you were going to enjoy the remaining days to the fullest. You said that you won't let anything tamper with your joy," She assured herself, fighting back the tears that already brimmed in her eyes."Yeah... There you go," She whispered as she leaned forward and cleaned her tears, adding some makeup to cover up her eyebags."Yes! That is perfect," She forced a smile at her reflection, then took a deep breath."Enjoy your day, baby girl," She said to her reflection and finally left t

Knox has been doing well too.It was a beautiful Saturday morning, and the day set for Arnaldo to go see Lisa in the prison along with Aliyah and Knox.Sitting in front of the mirror and staring at her reflection, Aliyah sighed as the thought of everything that has happened in the last few months played in her head. How they were able to survive until now was still like a miracle she couldn't comprehend, and she could only be grateful to her maker for being there for her all along. If anyone ever told her that the one behind the shit that has happened to her was her stepmom, she would've been the last person to believe it. The woman has always been good to her, and although she was never comfortable being around her, she never gave her any reason to doubt her pure heart toward her. She didn't imagine that she c

    Chapter 141Aliyah paced restlessly along the hallway, her eyes filled with tears. Her hair was disheveled as a result of constantly scattering it. She looked horrible, but that was the least of the things she cared about at the moment. Her husband and Mom were in the ER fighting for their lives and she was hoping they'd survive it."Just this once, please... Please spare them for me. Please don't take them away from me," She fell to her knees and prayed silently, hoping he'd prayers would be answered. At least just this once.The sound of her ringing phone pulled her attention, and if not that the call was from her dad's maid, then she wouldn't have answered it. "Ma... ma'am Aliyah... There is a problem. Mr. Arnaldo... Blood... He...he was shot," The feminine voice quivered at the other end, and her heart sank into her stomach. Her jaw dropped."Wh... what did you say?"

    Chapter 140 Mr. Arnaldo paced restlessly along the hospital hallway, worried about Rebecca who was in the ER, fighting for her life. Why was this happening? Who was behind everything that has been happening? He asked himself, running his fingers through his hair, but couldn't come up with any answer, so he sighed deeply. Knox was also present in the hospital, and Aliyah too was worried. She was sitting on the bench and burying her face between her palms, crying her eyes out. She has just lost her foster Dad, and it hurts. "Babe, you need to be strong, ok?" Knox tried to comfort her, sitting beside her and wrapping his arm around her shoulder, but more tears came streaming down her cheeks. "What should I do, Knox? Why is everything falling apart?" She cried, and he wished he could provide an answer to her question. He pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, slowly patting her hair assuring her yet again that everything was going to be fine even though it was obvious that t
