91. Amnesia

REBECCA "Like I said," the doctor began. "It'll take her a while to remember and hold onto the memories." My heart sank to my stomach as I heard those words and I haven't been able to recover from it. I squeezed my phone as I watched her sleep. It was midnight already and I still didn't want to leave her side. I painfully exited her room and sat outside when one of the bodyguards handed me a milkshake and a burger. "You haven't had anything to eat yet. We went down to get you something." I wanted to ask on whose orders? Was this Oliver checking in on me but right now he was the least of my worries? "Thanks," I accepted it and ate little as I thought back on what the doctor said, tapping my feet rather impatiently. "She may or may not recover but only time will tell. I'd advise she's put around familiar surroundings that hold very strong and passionate good memories. A family home sounds good enough. She mentioned her husband. Maybe being in her old house would do." That was a v

92. Selfish and Unfair

REBECCA “Mom? Mom, what did you say?” I swallowed hard as I approached her, tense with shock. Her brows furrowed questioning as she studied my face, “What?” She asked and I grabbed her hands searching her eyes. Was Oliver here when I was gone? Did he tell her anything? Did she hear anything from the nurses? Ollie? No one else called him that except me and some other woman he said was no longer alive. His mom or aunt, he didn't say. “Mom, was anyone here when I was gone?” I asked, gripping her hands tight. Fear flashed in her orbs but I carried on, “Did anyone come here? Any man–” “Wh-What are you talking about?” She started to pull her hand away but I grabbed her tighter. “Mom, tell me-” “Rebecca, you're scaring her,” Theo jerked me out of it and she used that opportunity to yank her hand away, staring at me like I would harm her. She heaved with heavy breaths, tears stinging her eyes and her brows were in a heavy frown. She looked like she would scold me if she could just fi

93. Suspicions

REBECCA"I'll let you know when I get the information you seek," Theo pulled over at Oliver's place and I wasted no time in unfastening my seatbelt. We had sat under a very uncomfortable silence on the way here and I had been praying for the ride to end.Did I mess things up between us without realising it?Even as he looked at me, I could tell he didn’t really look at me. It was almost as if he had so much to say."Okay, thanks-"He grabbed the door handle before I could open it and I turned my neck to him."Don't hesitate to call me if you need to talk," he made clear. "I will come get you faster than the speed of light."I knew I could rely on him but after what happened between us, I dreaded staying in the same room together.I gulped, nodding, unable to use my words and he let go. I hurried out, slamming the door shut and I didn't wait to watch him drive off before I hurried in. my bodyguards were already right behind me. They rode in a separate car.The fact that they didn't com

94. Annie

REBECCAWell there goes my chance to ask him about the property. Something told me he would know about it. He was always interested in my business, sometimes more than I was.Oliver was acting off and I was starting to wonder if this had been going on for a while and I was just blind to it.I went up to my room feeling overwhelmed by his attitude, determined to look into this further.I was pissed about the fact that he knew my mother was awake yet he didn't even... Oliver didn't even... For the love of God! He said he loved me!Shit! Now I sounded like a whiny little bitch in my own head. I was expecting way too much from this man.As much as I wanted to get into that private jet and flee with my mother, I didn't want to leave more regrets in this city. I knew I would never be truly happy if I just whisked her away.She didn't know who I was, and couldn't recognize me for no more than a minute or two.I just needed a few days on that property. Just a few days. I didn't even plan to g

95. Don't cross me

OLIVER"She's awake."I couldn't count the number of times Victor had said that today but I still had the same reaction every time.My heart sank to my stomach and my hands trembled. This wasn't a feeling of joy, it was one of fear. I had congratulated Rebecca but deep down, I was wickedly relieved by the fact that Lucia had woken up with a clean slate memory.Was this the heavens trying to give me a second chance or trying to save her from death? Once my grandfather knew she had her memories, they'd be dead before I could move a muscle."Prepare the jet, they leave tonight," I sipped my hot coffee and rolled up my sleeves. I was starting to get hot like the air conditioner wasn't working. I loosened my tie and popped open the first two buttons."It just got complicated, didn't it?" Victor smirked, teasingly as he watched me. "You're finally feeling the heat, aren't you?""What are you talking about?" I scoffed. "They are leaving.""The doctors said-""They can piss off!" I snapped. "

96. visits

OLIVERI picked up a napkin on the table and proceeded to wipe my face, "In all my years, I never thought you could actually feel fear, Mr. Wright." an old name I used to call him before I 'proved' myself worthy of being his grandchild.Yet the old man still never hesitated to slam me with the 'you're not my son' card. He was always quick to deny him.Watching him now, he was no more than a whiny baby who craved attention."Relax," I dumped the napkin on the table after wiping my face but my suit was half soaked. I made a mental note to contact his assistant to get me a replacement from his bank account."She doesn't remember a thing."His eyes flashed with more anger. "You think I don’t know that little bitch is looking for a way to get her hands on that property which I know you bought a long time ago under a false name!""I appreciate the fact that you think so highly of me. You must think I take after you-""Quit the flattering, boy. Now hand over the properties document!" As soon

97. Truths

REBECCA"What do you want?" I asked Annie instead as I paced my room, biting my nails with nervousness starting a tug-of-war in my belly. I wondered how far I would go just to know what Oliver was hiding."Well…" she stretched in a high pitched voice and irritation made me scowl. "That depends on how much you want to know.""Everything.""Everything? Oh boy!" she chuckled, fueling my suspicion. "Oliver's not going to like that.""I don't care what he likes. I want to know why his grandfather wants to kill me so badly and why they seem to be afraid of my mother gaining her memories."Different scenarios began to play out in my head. Were the two long time enemies? Was there something my mother knew that could put his grandfather in trouble?"How am I sure you won't go running to Oliver when you find out? I don't want him to hate him, we'll be getting married soon…""I won't say a word," she was trying to taunt me with it. That tease in her voice was too obvious-"Ha!" she laughed. "If

98. Panic and beeping lights

REBECCA Oliver quickly masked his shock and his annoyance weighed down on his brows, "I came to have a talk with the doctor-""This is not the doctor's office.""Are you accusing me of something, Rebecca? Say it."He looked pissed but his red eyes still made me question his intentions. I wondered if he was here to see my mother but something strongly told me that was it.Did he cry?Did he hate her too like his grandfather did and was he here to finish her off?I turned my head to look at her, she was lying on the bed like she was asleep. She didn't move and for a moment there I thought the worst case scenario-"She's getting some rest," he read my mind. "She was awake when I came in but didn't say a word."Then why did he look like he was devastated? I thought back to what Annie said and she was right. I'd never look at Oliver the same way again. I was filled with nothing but questions in my heart and it made me doubt every single thing he has ever done for me and my mother."Okay,"

99. Shy away

REBECCAThe cops swarmed the place at once and my mother and I were moved to another room. After thorough inspection of the room, they began questioning the doctors, nurses and even the bodyguards that stood outside.Theo was nowhere in sight but he was the first one I called after seeing that device. He was currently on a mission and it would take him a while to return today. My ghost had left my body when I saw it but I walked out of the room, not wanting to scream to scare my mom. I called the bodyguards and they quickly identified it as a wireless microphone.Everything in that room was being listened to by someone at the other end of it.Our conversation- every word I spoke, every truth I told my mother had never been for her ears alone."Did they check the CCTV?" I asked the bodyguard who handed me some doughnuts and two drinks. I gave one to my mother and pulled him aside to continue our conversation. She was clueless the whole time she was being moved to another room.I still

100. Receipts

OLIVER She knows something. She fucking knows something. Now I didn't know what she knew or how much she knew but I knew she was growing suspicious. Victor wouldn’t have said a word to her. Was it Theo then? That damned detective who was using her for his own gain- he wouldn't admit it but I fucking knew he was using her. He was trying to get closer only so he could exact revenge on my grandfather. I wasn't willing to share the information I had and he was desperate. It was either him or Annie. Why the fuck did she cancel the date again? She was always so eager, looking forward to the next 'pretend' scene. That woman was a psychopath and lived up to it. I stormed out of the room, ignoring Lucia's laughter at whatever Victor must've said. He was making her relaxed and tried to ease the tension. Besides Rebecca's glaring eyes, I knew I couldn't remain in the room. What if Lucia suddenly remembered me? "You said she was at home!" I growled to the guard who I had called to confirm
