All Chapters of For The Stars Have Sinned: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

I called his number but when someone answered on the other line, I was left speechless for a minute. I don't know what to say to him after I realized that it would be a big scandal if I were to admit that a man took my first that night. I bit my lower lip."Rishel," he called after a few minutes of silence. "You called?"Where should I start? I stood up as I remembered what happened earlier. My two eyebrows met as I told Lyndon about Rei trying to destroy my honor, even though I knew someone else had done it in that night.After that, silence prevailed between the two of us before he cleared a throat. "Does your parents know this?" he asked.My lips formed a line and I looked out the window where it was starting to mist. "I didn't let them know. I don't want them to worry so this matter must end sooner." I breathed deeply. "Mr. Davies, I know I've hurt your cousin and I really regret playing with his feelings but please know that there's no o

Nineteen years ago.Word spread that an abandoned boy had taken the life of a beggar in a secluded alley of a bustling night market. That became sensational news because the Mayor of the city himself took care of that case. But after a few days the news subsided and was never mentioned again on the news channels.I just remembered the boy's face. Even though his posture and face changed, he still couldn't hide the small mole on the side of his lips and the kind of look he was shooting at me, like a hungry monster.Yes, I clearly remember the boy's face because I witnessed how he killed the beggar who grabbed the pandesal I gave him. I was there at the crime scene that night, nineteen years ago.But I forgot all those events because of the trauma. Just now all the memories that were erased from my mind came back to me.My vision blurred and I started crying. Why am I the one who always sees crime? First, the crime in the alley. Second

My heart skipped a beat at what he said. I looked at him dumbfounded as he said what he knew about the incident involving Papa."The authorities found out that someone shot your father while he was buying something at a grocery store. The suspect's face was not clear on the CCTV footage but there were witnesses who witnessed the day your father was shot. They are pointing to Levitus suspects."My lips formed a line and stared at him. Is what he says true? He's not deceiving me, right?When he noticed that I didn't believe him, his eyebrows met. "If you ask those witnesses, you'll know the truth."My fist is clenched. "Did you bribe them?""Are you doubting my intentions?" he asked and raised an eyebrow."Yes," I answered him.The corner of his lips twitched and he laughed. I stared at him until the smile disappeared from his lips. Lyndon's eyes narrowed and he pulled out a photograph. When I looked at it, I frowned.

He looked dark but I knew his anger was not directed at me so I was relieved. "Thank goodness you're here!" I cheerfully said and sat down.He attended to me quickly. "Let's go," he said and picked me up in his arms.I screamed in shock and looked at his face very close. My heart beat fast and both cheeks got hot. I looked away when he looked at me."Where are you going to take me?" I asked.I noticed that he was careful when he walked to the fire exit with me in his arms. After a while, we got out of the building and the fresh night air gently hit my face. The tension in both my shoulders disappeared and I leaned my head on Lyndon's shoulder."Thank you," I whispered softly."What did he do to you?" he asked."I just passed out for two days.""Two days?" Lyndon's aura grew darker. "Rishel, you've been missing for two weeks! I can't find you." His jaw clenched. "And I will know that you're in the hospital?"

"Rishel, is there a problem? Lyndon told me you're ignoring him." Mama's eyebrows met. "Tell me what's wrong."I looked at Mama for a moment before looking back at the laptop on the center table and typing away. "I'm just busy, Ma. I'll call him next time," I said.Mama sighed. "That's what you always say. If you and Lyndon have a problem, talk about it. The wedding is next week and the engagement party will be held tomorrow. How will you treat your future husband if you don't get along?"I stopped typing and looked up at Mama. "We don't have a problem, Ma. Don't worry, I'll call him tomorrow.""You should, Rishel. You have been engaged for several years and you should make your relationship public, otherwise the board members will question your engagement to Lyndon."But I'm not ready to be tied to that man. I already knew he was Klo's father and he was certainly the one who bedded me that night, but why did he hide that truth from
