CHAPTER 81

Valerie's POV His annoying optimism for the topic is irking. Not just the way he shows his disbelief in me but the fact that he keeps hoping and thinking it is nothing but a framed up story.I might be a bad person and a rebel but I would definitely not come up with a story like that just for me to achieve something.Ryan is an idiot. I meant what I said when I told him I was leaving but my heart irks so badly that I almost changed my mind and go back inside to tell him it was just a joke.But it is impossible. He would never take me seriously if I did that.I don't want to leave because I know how worried about him I would be. But I have no choice.With his lack of trust in me, I really do not know what else to do anymore. I don't know if I should just give up on this issue and begin to pretend like it never happened as he suggested.As the cab stops right in front of my parent's house, I catch a glimpse of a huge car right in front of the gate.Before I can get down from the cab,

CHAPTER 82

Ryan's POV My fists are shaking with rage, my whole body trembling with fear and my heart is pounding hard inside of me.My rage is because of Valerie. She was right about the poison. Not all she told me was unreal. The poison is real.I am scared because my Mother is on the brink of death. She was already lying lifelessly and pale white on the floor of the third room when I got home to meet the empty mansion.I didn't bother to think much about the similarity of tonight's incident with that of Valerie's description of the morning she was involved in an accident.I just carried my mom and rushed her here to the hospital. That fear and rage led me to call Valerie.She is the only one I can call. Now I don't know who to trust and who not to trust. I couldn't bring myself to call my Dad even though I still don't want to believe that he has a thing to do with this.We can sort that out later. I just want mom to be fine first.Guilt fills me at the thought of seeing Valerie again. This wa

CHAPTER 83

Valerie's POV The sadness lurking around his expression when he left the room to see the doctor is no longer there. It has been replaced with something unreadable but much more intense than the sorrows I could feel within him. Just from the fact that his Mother couldn't remember how she got here, I am beginning to put the puzzles together.At first, I thought it was all a pretense but now I see the reason why she never remembered my visit to the house and why she did not claim to have called me over.I see the reason why she never act as if I was there as a witness that morning. Something is definitely wrong somewhere. Something is fishy.I had slipped out of the room without her knowledge when the nurse signaled me to leave. I wanted to wait outside so I could ask Ryan all the questions I have.Suddenly, he looks straight into my eyes and I see it.This time, it isn't sorrow or sadness.What I can see behind his eyes is nothing but fear. And denial.Quickly, I move in to hug him.

CHAPTER 84

Ryan's POV This time, I believe her. I believe every word she says. Everything from the beginning till the end. Even those I had doubts about. Everything is beginning to make sense to me now. This has served as an answer to the numerous questions and doubts I had about Anita. I am beginning to put the piece together and the scene before me is making me nauseated. Quickly, I rush out. Blinded by anger and filled with a rush of adrenaline, all I want to do right now is see that man I have called Father for years so I can punch the living hell out of him for keeping me in the dark and doing this to my mom. Mom doesn't keep secrets from me. I am sure she did this because of him. I never had the cause to openly think whether he is really my father or not because of how we grew up. This is because I always take solace in my mother's chest. He has always been a violent man but I thought he has changed. The last time he hit me was when I was 17 years old and I also raised my hand to

CHAPTER 85

Valerie's POV He was blinded.At first, blinded by denial. Now he is blinded by rage.My sobs wake him up. I feel his hand moving and I quickly raise my head to see his eyes open. He isn't looking at me. He is staring at the ceiling while he is still laying on the hospital bed with an expression I can't place.He is still as pale as ever.I thought I was going to lose him. The thought alone made me mad and full of sorrow.I was also blaming myself. If I hadn't put everything to him that way, maybe this wouldn't have happened.If I hadn't said all those things which were painting his whole family as black, maybe he wouldn't be filled with so much rage and hatred for the man he has called Father for more than two decades.I should have tread slowly and carefully with him. I should have stopped him from running out that night.What happened two nights ago broke my heart and also made me realize how attached I am to Ryan. I have realized how much he means to me. When I told my father th

CHAPTER 86

Ryan's POV When I woke up again, I see a lady seated beside me. But it isn't her.It is Celina.And she has a bright smile on her face.My emotions are still all over the place because of what happened between Dad and me and also Valerie.I wonder why I still call him Dad. He doesn't deserve to be called that. I don't even need to ask him the truth. I don't need to ask him if he is my Father because apparently, he isn't.I wonder how Celina got to know and why she is here.As if hearing my thought, she clears her throat and places a hand on my arm. "Your mom called me. How are you feeling now?"I do not reply. Valerie of all people should understand me. She doesn't. She always opposes every single thing I say or do and it is extremely annoying.She was acting like my Dad. The way he condemns everything I do and I couldn't help but let her out.I need to think about everything and let it sink in me that I really do not have a Father. My mom has a lot of questions to answer when she i

CHAPTER 87

Valerie's POV I can't breathe.There is a huge lump stuck in my throat, stopping me from breathing properly. I try to open my mouth and take in as much breath as I can and it works.Finally, I exhale, my nose stiff and cold.My breathing isn't steady. It is beating wildly and heavily within my rib cage in rage. My head is pounding so hard and my eyes brim with tears.I am not thinking about Ryan now. I am thinking about Fred. I am thinking about how Fred and I got separated and how I ended up being a wife to Ryan who is now obviously cheating on me with his first love.Fred and I got separated because he cheated on me with my best friend and the same thing is happening again but this time with a man I vowed to love months ago even though I didn't mean to keep to the vow.I shouldn't have fallen head over heels for him but how can I not when he always acts so sweet and tells me how much he loves me?This isn't part of the plan but it happened anyway. Obviously, he didn't love me as mu

CHAPTER 88

Ryan's POV She was right again.Calling the police on him, having them interrogate him and every one of the domestic staff was useless.The investigation went on for just a day and everything died down. They claimed to have found no evidence to back up my claim that Mother was indeed poisoned and left to die alone in that house.No one believes my story. They aren't even considering my status.They believed Father over me. He presented them with a record of her medical history. That did the trick and they completely stopped coming to the house and the chapter was closed in two days.Everything annoys me.This has been a plan right from the onset. How could I have not seen this? How could Mother not have seen this coming? Did she? Did she choose to ignore it? Did she know she wasn't really sick with cancer? Did she know how much of a monster her husband is? Did she know that Anita isn't hers?If she knows all about this, then why didn't she confide in me? Why did she make me believe t

Ryan's POV Slamming my fists on the steering, I let out a growl of frustration as my head drops to the wheel.I hate him with all my being.I hate him for pretending to be my father all these years. I hate him for everything.After letting out several puffs to calm my nerves, I finally step down from the car. I close it back and walk straight into the hospital.I wonder when Mother will be finally discharged. Even if he wanted her back into the mansion, I wouldn't have allowed it. I have plans of keeping her with me till everything is resolved.After making plans to keep her in my house, I was a little scared she might want to go back home but now that he is throwing her out, it will work to my benefit. I can never let her take him again and I need to know what exactly is happening and why all of this happened.After all, he asked me to demand questions about this from her. I only hope she answers me this time and does not lie to me.I step into the ward and open the door to her room

CHAPTER 90

Valerie's POV I knew it.I knew this would happen but I never thought it was going to be my Dad. I never thought he was going to come for my Father instead of me.I have been envisioning how he will come for me again and I know this time, he won't spare me. I got spared the first time probably because he thought I was dumb and I would never figure out what happened or it was because he thought I was already dead which I doubt so much.How did he get into the house without the security's knowledge? Is my Dad going to survive it this time?Words fail me as well as tears as Ryan drives at a very high speed to the hospital Mother said she rushed him too.Where was my Mom? What is the relationship they have? Why did he come for my Dad? Is it because of me or it is because Dad knows a lot and he is afraid he will spill the beans?The moment the car stops, jerking me out of my reverie, I rush out before Ryan could come down from the car. His Mother wanted to come with us but we insisted tha
