CHAPTER 120: Last Straw 

Hanna's POV "I don't suppose that's really any of your business, Darlene; you should concern yourself with your own family rather than others." Maureen spoke before I could answer the question myself. I looked to her, surprised at her defending me. She was defending me, right? Because a part of me felt like she was hiding the parts of me she found disgracing; I couldn't really blame her though; wasn't I hiding them as well? Darlene rolled her eyes and sipped on her wine. I would have felt back for her, but she was a nosy old woman after all. "At least tell us how you met Aaron; I never pictured him as the kind to get in a relationship; he always had an eye for business instead." Margaret said "He was my knight in shining armor; he helped me through a difficult time in my life." I said that was the best I could think of without really giving anything away. Maureen remained silent and sipped from her glass; maybe she wasn't very pleased by my choice of words, or maybe she was just

Chapter 121: Stay the Night. 

AARON'S POV I caught a glimpse of Hanna headed up the stairs, and I felt a small bubble of worry build inside me. What had happened? Where was she going? "Excuse me, gentlemen, I have something extremely urgent I must attend to." I excused myself for the group of businessmen I had been talking to. I searched around for my mom and instantly spotted her; she was by the water fountain having a conversation with someone I didn't quite recognize. Brilliant choice Mother, you chose to leave Hanna stranded and go talk to some stranger. Typical. I walked as fast as I could and eventually caught up to her as she walked down the corridor. It was pretty quiet, and my steps were considerably loud, so I was surprised when she hadn't even turned or flinched as I approached her. What was she thinking about? I put my hand on her shoulder, and I felt her jerk. She turned around, and I met her eyes. She looked tired, like she was exhausted and almost on the verge of tears. Maybe the party

Chapter 122: something's missing

Hanna's POV I had never been so happy to see the sun shining, not like this at least. I slid myself out of bed, Aaron was still peacefully asleep beside me, and went to take a shower. Due to the fact that our staying over was unplanned, I was stuck with having to wear the dinner gown I had on from last night. I slowly stroted through the corridor; it was quiet and peaceful—nothing like last night. The anxiety and fear that had filled me had all faded away like a bad dream. I ran my finger over the smooth walls; something about it felt magical. To be honest, I felt like the girl in the fairytale on her first time in a castle, but rather than a castle, I was in a 21st-century mansion, and this was real life. Deep down, I had this sick gut feeling that made me feel like my story wasn't going to be like fairytales. Last night, I agreed to stay and feel asleep in the guest bathroom. I hadn't realized how tired I was till my head met the pillow and everything else went black. I was o

Chapter 123: IT'S HER!!

Hanna's POV"What does it look like?" I asked, trying to diffuse the situation. Maureen shifted her eyes to me again; the anger in it was unhinging. "The one I wore last night, it's thin and shiny." She said Bracelet, last night, I tried to make a mental picture of her outfit. I remember her dress, her hairdo, and even her necklace, but I didn't recall seeing a bracelet. Was it possible the piece of jewelry was so dainty I hadn't even noticed it, or maybe Maureen had never actually worn it?"Someone better tell me something or all your careers are going down the drain." She said, her voice dropping a bit; she was still visibly angry, but her strength seemed to be waning.The staff cowered in fear; I couldn't help but feel sorry for them all. How were they going to pay back a million-dollar debt? I put her hand on Maureen's shoulder and tried to get her to calm down; she was going to rupture a vein if she kept shouting like this. "Maybe you should just take it slow." I said Her

Chapter 124: WHO'S THE LIAR NOW?

Aaron's POVThe kitchen went so silent you could probably hear a pin dropped, every head turned to my side, to Hanna. I looked at her as well and she had a confused horrified expression on her face, she had no idea what was going on. It couldn't have been her, it just couldn't.I felt my cool wash off and anger boil through my veins, my eyes shifted to the maid that had accused her in the first place. The ungrateful little rat, Hanna was trying to help her out and she had accused her instead. "I saw her last night." The maid said "Shut your lying gutter of a mouth!" I ordered and her lips sealed From the corner of my eyes, I could see Hanna raise her head to look at me but I didn't look back at her, I was too angry and too confused. What in the world was going on? "What do you think this is??" I released my grip around Hanna's waist and walked closer to the maid, "some kind of childish gane where you can just put the blame on someone else." The maid cowered backwards before I co

Chapter 125: Truth or lie?

Hanna's POV "How dare you? How could you do this?" Maureen said, looking straight into my soul; her voice was drenched in disgust. "I swear I didn't take it, Maureen." I said I suddenly felt like I sounded like the maid—all of a sudden, the lying snake that had chosen to repay my kindness with a lie like this. I could tell it was pointless defending myself to Maureen; the way she was looking at me, I doubt she was willing to listen. "Don't you dare say my name with those lying lips of yours." She said "Aaron." I said I looked to Aaron for help, but he was silent. Was that a good thing or was it a bad thing? I couldn't tell; my head was so foggy I couldn't even think properly. His eyes turned to me and met mine; I got the answer I was looking for. Deep down, somewhere in there, he didn't believe me either. I was alone in this; how did this happen in the first place? "I only stayed here because you told me too." I said to Aaron, trying to remind him that he was the one that

Chapter 126: Hanna's gone 

Aaron's POV I sank into the chair by the hospital bed, my eyes glued on my mother; they had been glued on her since I carried her out of the house and to the hospital. She hadn't had a stroke since the last time I found out; she was fine up until now, till Hanna triggered her by stealing from her. It still felt like a dream to me—actually, maybe more like a nightmare. The realization had hit me, followed by the stab of betrayal in my heart. The woman I loved and had given my heart to was no thing but a thief. Mom was right. For a second, I was about to be swayed by the way her eyes pleaded. I could tell she was going to cry—was it because she had been caught or something else?. As much as I fought against the possibility that she was the culprit, it made no sense that she wasn't. There was no motive for anyone to want to incriminate her, and frankly, she was the only one with a good enough opportunity, and the cherry on the cake, the bracelet, was in her purse. I had no idea whe

Chapter 127: Mission Accomplished 

Maureen's POV"Your son just drove out." The nurse came in and said I rolled my eyes and pulled off the blanket, that was a tiring experience. Faking a stroke was not as easy as I expected it to be, but in the end, it had worked out the way I wanted it to. It was a sly devious move, but to me it was just a necessary evil. "Get me the doctor." I said and sat up. It felt like yesterday, the day I had come up with the perfect plan to get that lowlife out of my son's life, with Micheal. "First, we have to give it time." I said "Time? You want to give her more time to sink her claws into your son?" Micheal asked impatientlyOf course he didn't understand, he was too small minded, too much of a meathead to properly see through any plan. "If something should suddenly happen to ruin his impression of Hanna, who do you think would be the first suspect?" I said His eyes widened, now he understood what I was saying."But he'll still suspect you no matter what, you said you already tried

Chapter 128: A Life of My Own

Hanna’s POV“Could you give me two minutes? I’ll be right back.” I said to the cab driver, I was sure I had some change somewhere in the house.He looked at me for a while with doubting eyes, then he just shook his head. “Don’t worry about it, ma'am. It’s on me.” He said I thanked him and got out of the cab. My eyes followed as the vehicle disappeared down the street. Maybe I still had some luck, or maybe not. I felt like the most unlucky woman in the world.I stepped into the house, and it suddenly felt foreign. Everything I looked at reminded me of Aaron; the way he looked at me, he believed them; he believed I was a thief. I closed my eyes to hold back the tears. I had cried so much my head was starting to hurt, my eyes couldn’t take anymore. I dragged myself up the stairs and to my room. I walked to the bed and collapsed on it, my eyes fixed on the ceiling.I couldn't do this; whatever this was, I just couldn’t bring myself to go through this. I knew for sure that I hadn't gone

Chapter 129: Life Without You

Aaron’s POVTwo weeks passed and there was still nothing about Hanna—no messages, no call, no idea where she was. To be fair, I hadn’t really done anything to look for her. She had made her decision, which was to steal from my mother and then flee like a criminal when she got caught. Apparently, I wasn’t even worth an explanation, or maybe there was none to give.I stared at the laptop screen, my eyes sore and my head stinging slightly. The past two weeks had been horrible; I hadn’t gotten any sleep, and it was starting to show. The house felt empty without her in it. I tried to overlook and go on as normal, but it felt like she had taken along with her, something I couldn’t quite replace.The feeling only made me more angry; it reminded me of how much I had loved her. A reminder that I had let myself get deceived all in the name of love, and I hated myself even more because, deep down, a part of me wanted to overlook the incident if that was what it took to have her back home.“Sir?”
