Chapter 55

I couldn't trust anyone. No one was telling me the truth. No one could be trusted. Everyone was my enemy.

Nothing made sense. I was on the verge of losing my mind.

Jenna Rogers hated me. I could tell from every single word she uttered to me. Niklaus. God-Niklaus lied to me? I was Gregory Montgomery's daughter?

Everything was too much to process. I couldn't deal with everything all at once. Once again, I was at square one. Alone.

I rushed out of the hospital, going to the one place I could think of. Having no money on me, I practically walked all the way there and that was the longest walk I ever had.

I was hungry and weak but most of all, I was hurt. I clutch my chest walking down the busy road trying so hard to ignore how people stared at me.

I get it, it was disturbing to see a woman crying with PJs on in the middle of a busy street.

Each step was agonizing, I couldn't take it. I couldn't bare it. I couldn't bare everything, the lies and everything that had happened to me in one da

    I lay low at John's place for about three days. I knew I had to sooner or later confront the inevitable that I was possibly Greg's daughter and most definitely Isadora's sister much to my dismay.John was at work like he always was and today was the D-Day. I held onto my mug of coffee watching the sun rise through the enormous glass wall view of John's apartment.Today was Gregory's regular checkups and with the help of John, we were finally going to have Gregory's samples for the DNA test.According to the plan, John would come up with some doctor shit asking Gregory to take some swabs of his saliva to run tests on his heart condition and later during the day, he would take my samples and my supposed father's to a DNA testing clinic within the hospital he worked.If I was his daughter, I would confront him tell him the truth about the Rogers; what they did to me to them because I had a gut feeling Jenna Rogers was involved in everything.I wouldn't demand anything from him but in my

    'We are live just outside the multi million mansion of business tycoon Gregory Montgomery having received word about the appearance of his long lost daughter.We are still working all the details as the family comes to term with everything going on. We have however received an assurance that the family will make an announcement later this afternoon so don't go anywhere'I watched the chatty female reporter from the TV in my living room. The news hit me like lightning from a clear blue sky, they knew. Everyone knew.And she knew.I spent days looking for her only she already found her way home. My guts instantly told me that my mother told her everything and it scared the shit out of me because God knows how much my mother had really told her.I felt like shit. Inside an empty house, all alone, drinking cheap beer. I was a mess. I instructed Martin and the rest of my staff to take a month off.Maybe I was trying to be gallant by sending them off. I didn't want them to see me in this st

    "You bastard!""My daughter! You hid my own daughter from me!" I stretched my legs on the bed, waking up and scanning the room for anything peculiar. I could have sworn I heard Gregory shouting and the thought about who he was shouting at scared me.I slowly got out of bed pulling the floral pillows from Marrakech to the side. The room I was staying at was nothing but gorgeous. The walls together with the Phillip Lloyd Powell chairs deployed tranquil tones of grey.Just opposite the chairs was a luxury walk in wardrobe filled with some of Isadora's old clothes. Not that I was staying in her room rather Marie thought since I didn't have any clothes with me, I could as well wear Isadora's old ones.Once my feet got into the fuzzy slippers, I went to the glass doors sliding them open. They led to an outside balcony that managed to capture the beauty of the vegetation of Montgomery's estate.I held my arms tighter once the harsh wind slapped my arms. I heard grunting once more and Gregor

    JENNA ROGERSI watched my maid as she unscrewed the cork of one of my favorite bottle of wine. Chateau Margaux has always been my favorite brand of red wine.It made me think of maybe coming up with my own wine company or brand. After all forty percent shares of Rogers Co cost billions, that would easily ensure that.When the maid missed to pour the wine in the glass and the red drink poured on the pure white table cloth, I moved away from the table rather startled and also did she."Am sorry ma'am! I-I'll clean this up",the poor incompetent thing cried.It was rather too late to scold one of my housemaids again, she was pretty damn lucky that I was weary. That bottle of wine cost a lot more dollars than she did but I didn't snap at her. Instead I dismissed her with a wave of my hand telling her to get the hell out of my sight.I stared at the red liquid longer than necessary. It looked like blood, like the same blood I saw in my dreams drowning me in my own pool.'It wasn't my fault

    "But Jenna wouldn't possibly do this! She was my friend",Marie exclaimed and I could now start to see where I got my 'trusting on the wrong people nature' from.She was just as naive as me to think that her husband's ex would want nothing more but to be friends with her."I assure you,Marie she hates me and maybe even you too. She made it clear to me that she wanted me out of her life back then", I fired back watching Marie leave my hands and withdraw hers to her lap.She was disappointed no doubt, because up until now calling her mom was hard. But that didn't mean I didn't consider her my mother. I was starting to love her little by little.Like yesterday once she learnt of my existence, she hadn't left my side urging me to tell her everything that happened to me for the past ten to fifteen years of my life. And even when she brought me up to this room I was so sure she must have slept in the next room to make sure I was comfortable."It's just all confusing and unbelievable. And Mic

    Ever hit rock bottom? Well my answer would be yes. Maybe I had seen this coming but I hadn't predicted that it would be this bad. That it would hurt so much.I lost her and there was no way of going back. Forget about even asking for forgiveness, she would never forgive me not after I had blurted out that in one way or another I killed her uncle.Accepting reality, I had watched her walk away from me after she had declared she would send me to prison. Ofcourse she didn't mean it, she was just upset and I understood that.Once I left Gregory's compound, I decided to take a quick turn to a bar nearby. My face was sore, my heart felt weird in a not so good way and my shirt was covered in blood.Once I parked my car just outside the bar throwing my car keys to the shocked skinny valet, I walked in the bar ignoring the glances everyone threw at me. I get it. I was a mess. No one would recognize as the famous accomplished Niklaus Rogers.I hit some few shots before I decided to go to Blaze'

    Tired. That's what I was after everything."We'll sue him. We'll sue them!" Gregory had cried once he knew of everything but Marie had stopped him from doing so because she knew Isadora and I loved Niklaus dearly. There was no denying it, I loved him but I was also going to un-love him and live. They had snatched away twenty good years away from me and it was pointless wanting to get back at them.Life was too short to hold long term grudges.I was trying to forgive them and although it was nowhere easy, I would try. It has been exactly a month since the DNA results showed that I was truly Isabella, Greg and Marie's daughter. And within the month, a lot of things had happened.For instance, Isadora told Daniel she was pregnant and dad came to find out that the child wasn't Niklaus' as he had been made to believe. I remember Daniel showing up at home, how nervous he was when my dad talked to him."What are your plans with my daughter and my grandchild?" Dad had asked over dinner.We w

    The investors had been on my neck all week. It was my father's dream that Rogers Co, expands to more countries other than the United States.I was seeing through that his dream came true. And in order to accomplish those dreams I had to reason with the investors, telling them that my idea would go on with or without them. I had enough money to cover my own expenses, to start another branch first in the Philippines before I expanded to countries like Russia, Germany, Singapore and so many others.Their main concern was where I would get the funds and if I was managing the funds accurately. Truth be told I had never been so sure in my life of the idea. My idea had some bit of traction, five to six years from now our company would be soaring through great heights.I had been to the Philippines, actually lived there for two years and in all those years I had made friends from Pasig city, San Juan, Pasay, Makati and Quezon city all from Metro Manila. Friends who were great architects and

    Epilogue"I really think we should stop!",Elle shrieked with laughter her hands trying to push me away.My hands cornered on my very desk as I gazed at her beauty. Eight years of marriage and three kids and she still looked the same to me."Do you really want me to stop?"I smirked tapping my fingers from her knee down down down her thigh.It was her fault anyway for coming to me dressed in that. She knew how much that dress was a turn on for me. I wanted nothing but to rip it off."Y-yes oooooh",she gasped the moment I ran my fingers at the outline of her panties."You should... should stop",her eyes stared at me,"remember last time we tried to make love in your office", she warned.My smile turned wicked. How could I forget. How could I forget the way everyone looked at me when I entered the conference room. I simply I had no words.What was a guy to do when our top most clients heard Elle and I moaning over the microphone?It was safe to say that that was the most embarrassing moment

    Good bye.I had watched blood drain from her face the instant I said that.Did I mean it though? I wish I did. I wish I ripped her out of my heart and this madness would end right there and then.I wish I wouldn't be so worried about how she was doing, about how she was. But what's done is done, there was no point of going back to the past.Letting go was a hard thing to do but it was for the best, for me and for her. I loved her, I loved her since we were kids that wouldn't change and even if I fell in love with someone else I think a part of me would always love Elle.She was my first love after all.On a casual Wednesday morning, I was in my office preparing for a meeting. I would fly to the Philippines next week to visit Mario and help him out with some of the issues he had been trying to handle himself.Drizella was quick to inform me that Mario had some issues but he was trying to be the big boy, trying to handle everything by himself so that he could not ask me for help.I coul

    He stoked a fire in me, he brought the other wild side of me. My body responded to his touch and my heart ooh my heart turned to jello the very instant he murmured my name like a Benediction.And when he kept on repeating the words 'I love you' with no shame hell I felt loved and God knows I wanted to say 'I love you too'.As I watched him sleep, his naked chest glistening against the morning's sunlight I realised I had feelings for this man. I thought I buried these feelings deep inside but here I was smiling amusedly at how handsome he looked while he was asleep.I didn't regret yesterday at the very least. I was supposed to but I didn't.Deep down when I imagined sex, Niklaus was the only man I was having sex with and not Rocco. I loved Rocco. I used to love Rocco but after everything that transpired yesterday that love seemed to simmer down quickly than steam.Was it possible to love two guys at the same time?With Rocco, he was the perfect man and I guess that's what I was lookin

    The light clearly starting to peer through the room made my eyes flutter open.I would have loved to stay in bed all day, to sleep with her all day. Yesterday was- I had always imagined us but yesterday couldn't compare to my day dreams.It was like in a moment, I was in heaven. In a dream even.When I saw the fear in her eyes yesterday as I tugged on the lace of her panties, I sure as hell knew that she hadn't slept with Rocco.And like a fool, I found myself grinning at that. I was the only supposed to touch her, I was the only supposed to be inside her.Once my head came to the conclusion that she was still a virgin, I tried my best not to ravish her immediately. I tried my best to be in control, to not be a caveman, to make sure that the night was perfect.To inscribe that night on her mind forever. And when I was inside of her, feeling her walls convulse around me, I wanted nothing but to come so hard.I restrained myself, I wanted her to reach her orgasm first. For her to have t

    After Rocco left me to sleep, I sat on my bed frustratedly. I simply couldn't wait for Isadora and Daniel's wedding to push through and I would leave home.I loved home, I really do but things were changing too fast. Rocco was changing too and I didn't like it one bit.I was bored infact that I started following the patterns on my floral pillows. Few minutes later, the pounding on the door grabbed my intention.The door suddenly opened and Issa popped her head in,"Can I come in?" She asked."Well your head is already in you might as well welcome your body in too", I humored.She trudged to my bed and carefully sat by the bedside. Then she narrowed her eyes at me her lips curling into a smile,"What?" I asked after a minute of piercing silence."Am just trying to figure out why you are mad and who you are mad at"What sort of question was that."You know very well why am mad. You all kept secrets from me. You know I hate secrets and am mad at all of you""It wasn't our secret to share

    "I think we are done for today, don't you think?" I grunted pushing the abdominal roller away.Ava sat on the mat looking rather disappointed and although I didn't want to intervene in her personal matters, I felt the need to.Since I went back for the equipment she had been acting strangely...well she did act strangely at times but she wasn't quite herself today.I sat on the mat next to her, my hands on my knees as I stared at her,"So...how was the date?"She rolled her eyes and I chuckled."That bad huh?" I asked.She quirked a brow turning her head so that we could be at a level with her."He lives with his mom",she grumbled."And that's bad because?""Are you seriously asking me that? He's a gamer, spends all his time playing videogames in his parents' basement. And before you ask, yes he told me all that""Atleast he is honest", I joked,"I mean he did come clean about his living situation""He is not my type, Niklaus. I just don't understand why all men can't be like you",she j

    Jealousy. Google described jealousy as the feeling or showing an envious resentment of someone or their achievements, possessions, or perceived advantages.I didn't know her nor of her achievements and possessions so there was no way I was jealous even though it took a couple of minutes for them to remember my presence in the room.After they parted from the hug, Niklaus turned to me paving way for me to get a glimpse of Ava clearly. She had an oval face, full lips, black hair that was tied up in a ponytail and don't get me started on her body. She was a ten over ten.I suspected she wasn't any of Niklaus' relatives otherwise I would have met her. And it really got me thinking how she got inside the house since there was a code to unlock the doors, unless she knew the code."Ava, this is-"I cut Niklaus off."I'm Isabella, nice to meet you", I greeted."You didn't tell me about her",Ava slapped his chest slightly and Niklaus laughed. He laughed.A whole thunderous chuckle when he was

    He was so irritating. I felt like smacking that smug of his face the minute he said 'I was his'.Just who did he think he was, he was crazy if he thought that I would kiss him in an instant. And dad! Ooh I was so mad at dad.Since when did he start liking Niklaus. They hated each other, well atleast I thought so. I trudged down the hallway remembering each room by heart.I remembered my old bedroom and just down the hall to the left was his room.The very same room where we lay together in each other's arms watching Stranger things. I found myself smiling recalling how he would ask what was so special with 'Steve Harrington'. Steve Harrington was everything to the female population. He was hot, funny and whoo don't get me started on his hair.I stood just outside my old room turning the knob and opening the door. Not only was the room clean but it was the same. As if I never left in the first place, I walked in closing the door behind me.The same vanity table, the same purple sheets

    I cringed feeling her tear up on my chest. I knew she would be stubborn but I hadn't expected her to cry. I expected her to hit me, to hurt me but not to cry.Though she did hurt me, I could feel the metallic taste of fresh blood on my mouth and my cheek was numb.She was really strong than she imagined.I run my fingers in her hair, feeling it's silkiness. She sniffled only to step away from me as if my touch was burning her."No",she wiped the tears on her cheeks with the back of her hand,"this isn't right"It's right, baby. Everything between us feels right. I haven't felt this way since you left.I wanted to tell her, to scoop her in my arms and tell her everything on my mind.Her eyes rose to meet mine and for a brief moment, I saw her gasp lightly."I did that?"She pointed to my face only then did I remember the little cut on my lip."It's not your fault. Don't mind it, I sort of deserved it", I chuckled trying to make her feel less guilty."Am not a monster like you, Niklaus.
