All Chapters of Twists and Turns.: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

She tossed and turned in her bed, her mind wandering as she stared at the ceiling. The National Examinations were coming up and she couldn't help but worry. She was smart and had gotten full scores plus extra points but so did hundreds of students that qualified all over the country. However, that wasn't what troubled her the most. It was the events that happened over the past few weeks and the doubts that constantly churned in her mind.What happened years before that made my mum and Vivian fall apart? Was Vivian just a good actor and deceived everyone or was there more to the story? She had promised herself not to think about it, but her curiosity burned.Vivian was in prison, rotting there like she rightly deserved and Daniel may have ordered for her to be beaten up by other inmates and treated with so much cruelty. She deserved itZStill, this was her mother’s life she was talking about and as a good daughter shouldn't she strive to know more about her?She picked up her phone f

A few days before the Nationals, Rory got a call from Oliver. “Hello, Oliver.” “Hi, Rory. How’s preparation for the Nationals going?” “It’s a little tiring with teachers constantly on our backs to study or attend extra tutorials.” She shook her head. “Well, it’s for the best, isn’t it? If you win, it’s glory for you and your school.” “I know,” she said. “Did you just call to ask about high school problems?” “No, I have news on what you asked me to find out.” Rory immediately sat up straight. She was tutoring her friends for the upcoming school exam in their classroom. Currently, they were solving a question Rory had given them, while she sat in front of the class, monitoring them. “What did you find out?” “Your mother didn’t go abroad to have you; she was hiding in one of her villas in the city when she got pregnant with you.” “But that’s not what I heard. Her friend and Nana told me she went abroad. Are you sure about this?” She furrowed her brows, trying to keep h

Rory and her friends decided to meet at the same cafe where she tutored them. They sat at a round table in a private lounge. Kay sat beside Rory, Rory sat beside Frank and Frank sat next to Blaire. Anna sat in the middle of David and Blaire and Terrence sat on the other side of Rory, with Louisa at his side.“So where are you all going to study?” Rory asked, tracing her fingers along the rim of her coffee mug.“I got into Lockharte for computer science,” David said nonchalantly, glancing out the window.“Show off,” Frank teased.“Mary Adams for business,” Frank replied. “It’s a top program, and Rory’s tutoring helped a lot.”“Only a little,” Rory said with a smile.“Seriously, you made a huge difference,” Frank insisted.“Okay, I’ll take half the credit and ten percent of your future profits,” Rory joked.“That’s not fair. You’re married to the richest man and have your own business!” Frank laughed.“Who’s next?” Kay asked.“Alistar University for law,” Blaire said proudly. “My sister

It was the second year of university and Aurora had changed a lot. She had cut her hair to reach her shoulders, and she even had bangs now. She was in the Lab, with her hair tied into a ponytail wearing a white lab coat waiting for the result of a test she and Nate were doing to come out, so in the meantime she was playing on a riddle app on her phone.Nate came to her side and called out to her but he saw that she was staring at her phone intently, brows furrowed. He didn’t like looking at people’s phone but he was very curious as to what would make Rory this focused on something else, so he read the content:“Treasure yearned for gotten is a smile,But treasure’s want us an unwanted blight,Just as it was given, it can be withdrawn in a single light,Offered for vanity, taken for granted,Treasure is proud and vengeful,And it knows how to collect its debt,And leave you with nothing, all bare and shed.” “The answer should be time,” Nate said making Rory jump. “Shit, you scared me!

Daniel wasn’t surprised by the threat that was sent to him. He had been receiving these kinds of threats for the past three years, so he wrinkled his brows, and anxiety etched on his face. The men who tried to kidnap Rory at Blaire’s banquet weren’t hired by the Devanes like everyone thought but by someone else. Daniel abducted the men, tied them to a chair, and locked them in a basement planning on torturing them for laying their hands on his koala but by the time he got there, the men’s throats were slit and on the wall, written in blood were these words: MAI MINGCOM ROF OUY. Daniel quickly figured out that it was an anagram for: I AM COMING FOR YOU. The men didn’t disable the cameras because the twisted person wanted Daniel to catch them and alert him of his presence. No matter how Daniel tried he couldn’t find out who it was. The person became like a shadow, lurking behind him but never to be seen. He was the person’s target and what better way than to hurt Daniel if not by hurt
