Chapter 101- Fading into Nothingness

“Well, that went well…” Freddy spoke on their way back to his apartment. He was behind the wheels. His intention was to diffuse the air and break the silence that had long been drawn since they left the Villa.Francine sighed, “Right…. Anyway, I am sorry you had to witness all of that.” She spoke quietly.“Drama can’t be avoided when it comes to families. I think the good part is that we have your grandfather’s blessing from now on.” Freddy said, trying to cheer her up.Francine gave a nod, “True. I still can’t decipher what made him change his mind.” She expressed her suspicions.“No need worrying about that anymore. Should we get dinner?” He asked with the aim of stirring her thoughts away from her suspicions.“Yes… Pleeeasse… I am starving right now.” She agreed. Her stomach growled ferociously at that moment, making the both of them laugh out loud in the car.***Killian sat in his chair in the study. He dialed Detective Boyle’s number but the call never connected. He had been MIA

Chapter 102- Schemes and Tantrums

“Ahhhhhh!!!” Bethany screamed after she returned from her therapy session with Doctor Payne. Her appointment had been fixed on the first day of the weekday. She furiously slammed the door hard. The woman didn’t fail to grill to talk about the trauma she experienced in the custody of her supposed abductors. “Can you believe her?” She continued to vent out in her room. Vivian groaned out from her sleep, “What? Who?” She held a hand to her head which throbbed in pain. “That insufferable woman. I bet she must be amused right now.” She paced in the room back and forth. “Will you calm down? You are making me dizzy.” She complained while trying to keep her eyes open. “Don’t tell me to calm down!” She lashed out at her mother. “What were you even doing? Sleeping? When we have a mission to accomplish in this house?” Her eyes blazed with fury. She walked towards a flower pot in the corner of her room to pick it up. She aimed it right at the top of her mother’s head. The pot crashed behind V

Chapter 103- Souls with Devious Intentions

Penelope had just finished taking her bath and straightening her hair. She heard some knocks on the door. She walked towards the door and opened it.If she remembered right, her name was Pamela.It was one of the maids she had seen around the manor.“Morning, Ms. Winters. Your presence has been summoned by Mrs. King.” Pamela delivered the message from Bethany. She had been chosen by Bethany by herself. She intended to serve her to her best abilities since she was the true woman of the manor.Penelope raised her brow skeptically, “Uh… Why?”“You will find out from her, ma’am.” Pamela retorted.Penelope’s suspicion grew. Why would she want to see her? She had ensured that she didn’t leave her room unless to take a walk in the garden or visit fur ball. Not even once had she crossed paths with either Killian or Bethany. But Vivian had made it her mission to follow her almost everywhere.“All right. Give me a minute.” She informed Pamela. Penelope changed into a pair of black shorts and a

Chapter 104- Voices in thy Head

“Thank you, Ms. B.” Bethany chirped sweetly in appreciation. Ms. B simply gave a node and excused herself from their midst. The tension at the area didn’t go unnoticed by her. Killian sat at the head of the table with Bethany sitting right next to him in a sheer lacy outfit that left nothing to imagination. She pulled her hair into a ponytail, showing off her slender neck with a diamond neckpiece. Vivian had been instructed to stay put in the room even though she longed to join them for dinner. “I am so glad that you could join us tonight.” Bethany spoke, cutting through the air. Killian had looked away from his plate. Same as Penelope who looked at anything but the two people sitting opposite her. She had ensured to seat far away from them purposely. “Glad to be invited.” She said, not sparing her a glance. “Baby, I am so glad you hired her so you have live on with a piece of me.” Bethany spoke sweetly, “You are so sweet for that.” Penelope heard a loud smooching sound but didn

Chapter 105- The arrival of uninvited guests

“It worked!” Bethany thought as she listened to them while hiding behind a pillar. She watched Penelope abruptly leave the table and storm out of the place. She couldn’t care any less about where she was headed to. “Erhm… Where is Ms. Winters?” Bethany pretended to sound worried, “Did something happen in my absence?” She sat in her previous seat. Killian looked dismayed. “No… It is nothing. Thought you went to get some salt?” He asked with the raise of his brow. “Oh… Yeahh… Then, I remembered that there was one here after all. It simply slipped my mind.” She said and tried not to sound suspicious. “I will be in my study.” Killian said gruffly and stood up to leave. Alerted, Bethan quickly grabbed his arm, “What? Won’t you spend some more time with me?” “There are some work I must catch up with, Beth. Besides, you said you needed more time. This is me giving you the time.” He told her. Her gaze darted everywhere in search of what to say. “That is with the therapist. B…but you are

Chapter 106- From the Queen's country

“These people claimed that you requested for them.” A man spoke out confidently. He was certain that the two men would be utterly embarrassed. He knew Mrs. King before the crash. Her taste for luxury was well known by everyone in the manor. Of course, she wouldn’t settle for a low class beauty company. She glared at the two of them and shined her teeth with a dazzling smile, “Yes… Yes, I did. It is a start-up business that I saw on social media. It wouldn’t hurt to be supportive, right?” They were all gobsmacked. Did she just confirm it? Everyone knew she accepted nothing subpar and cheap. “Let them in.” She added. They cleared their throat and allowed them entry into the manor. When they arrived in her room, Bethany turned around quickly to smack Dean on the face as soon as the door was shut. He dropped the beauty tools and feigned his face in, not out of pain but in wonder. “Have you both lost your minds?” She whisper-yelled and ran to the curtains to shut it. “You had just a job

Chapter 107- And, she snakes her way back into society

The woman emptied the bin in the corner of her room and threw her sundress in it. “Uhm… That isn’t trash.” Penelope spoke out. “You still want this? Looks ruined to me.” The woman spoke out but her voice was muffled due to the nose mask. Penelope thought about it. She had enough to wear back at the manor and at her apartment. She shrugged and chose to let it go. Besides, cleaner had thrown is into the bin. She left the restroom to join Francine and Charles. “Wow! Girl! The colour looks great on you.” Francine complimented. “You have got some taste.” She added, looking pointedly at Charles. “I work in the fashion world.” Charles said tersely. Penelope gave a nod in understand. That would explain how he got his size perfectly. “If it isn’t too much hassle, maybe we could grab a cup of coffee some time?” Charles inquired with a wide grin. “Ooooh… Someone has got a date?” Francine gave her friend a playful jab on the ribs. “Cut it out.” Penelope chided her friend through her teet

Penelope couldn’t believe the sight before. She watched Bethany prance in a ridiculous wide yellow dress. “My love!” She exclaimed for everyone to here and bumped Penelope out of the way to cement herself next to Killian.Then, the roar of gossip began.“What a slut!”“She wanted another woman’s husband!”“Wow! To think I was jealous of her…”“She is despicable. Thank goodness she didn’t die. That gold-digger would have snatched Killian for herself!”They all sneered and stared at her with a look of contempt. Her eyes stung. She blinked to will back the tears that threatened to spill.They all looked at her like she was a horrible being. “See? Now, she is just an another shameless mistress.” Another one spoke out loud amidst the murmurs.Penelope wrapped her arms around herself. She suddenly felt ashamed of herself. Killian didn’t even bother to look at her. Instead, he wrapped his arm around Bethany with keeping a neutral gaze.“There you are. Been looking for you.” Nathan arrived a

Chapter 109- No one makes it out of here alive

Bryan went after Penelope begrudgingly. Curiously, Bethany took another route to join the party.Penelope was frantic and wanted to quickly reach where Killian was. Her gaze swept the room till she saw him in what seemed to be a deep conversation with Mr. Takahashi.Immediately, she pulled up the skirt of her dress and ran towards him. She bumped into some people along the way but she quickly muttered an apology to them. "I am sorry!""Killian!" She called urgently.Killian didn't hear her. His back was turned to her."Killian!" She called again. Her breath became haggard.Crap! She should have gone to the gym more. She was running out of breath from running on heels.She held her hip and struggled to breath. Her vision was blurry for a couple of seconds before it refocused."Kill-" She tried to call again but a shot rang out, silencing her in an instant.Everyone screamed and tried to run to save their lives. The doors to the entrance were suddenly shot."No one moves!" A voice boome

Chapter 110- Can the Truth set thy free?

Everyone gasped at the device blinking on him. Some people tried to scamper and seek solace near the walls.Pete shot up again. Everyone freeze in their position, afraid of having a bullet brutally pierce through them."Now, where was I?" Pete inquired. He sauntered but kept a tight hold on the switch.Bryan kept himself out of Pete's view. The man was predictable. For what he had done, no one must know his involvement with him. Or it would backfire on him and send him to jail faster than the speed of light."Hey..." He cooed to Penelope quietly.Her breath had returned to normal. "Feel better?"Penelope gave a nod and exhaled.She felt better magically. It was one of the reasons he loved having her brother around. She always had attacks from six. The event that triggered it, she had no memory of it.All she knew that whenever she had strange flashes, her head ached to no end. But Bryan always found a way to make it all go away.She sat up next to her brother and tried to look for Kil
