Chapter 71~ Expose her

Ryan’s jaw clenched and dead silence fell upon the room as he tried to take in Lora’s words. 'So, Ivy has been lying to me all this while? How long has it been since she could walk?' Ryan mused, disappointment creeping into him. It all made sense… Ivy’s refusal to hire experts who could treat her legs. The way she insisted on always being treated by her physiotherapist and no one else… Deep down, he had been suspecting that there was something wrong. Even if she refused Ryan's help, Ivy was from a wealthy family and they couldn't fail to find expert doctors who could help her walk again.However, he couldn’t directly ask about it since she got hurt because of him… it would make him look ungrateful if he became suspicious. Who knew she had been lying to him for so long? It made him wonder just how many lies she’s told. “Lora… I’ve really been a fool. To think I hurt you a lot all because of Ivy’s deception... I swear, I’ll never forgive her for this. She’s going to pay and regret

Chapter 72~ The Williams' plan

At the Williams’ mansion. Ivy paced around in her room, her heart racing erratically. She hadn’t heard anything about Lora. Was she dead?What if she got saved on time like six years ago?Ivy’s stomach churned. She had to make sure Lora was dead because she already knew her secret. Leaving her room, she went to her father’s study. “Dad, can you find out from your friend, Mr Davis if Lora is still alive?” Ivy asked her father. David Williams frowned. He glanced at his daughter and questioned, “What did you do?” “I… she was getting in the way. I had to get rid of her-”“I told you not to get involved in such things! Didn’t I say I would handle it? Why couldn’t you make Ryan fall in love with you after the path that we set for you? You wasted it and his heart got stolen by someone else!” David yelled, his nostrils flaring in anger. “I tried, Dad! I did everything I could but even the guilt of my legs couldn’t make Ryan love me! I was desperate… please find out for me. She can’t sta

Chapter 73~ Superhero

Charles Kingsley narrowed his eyes. He glanced at Lora and asked, “Why not? In the eyes of the law, you two are still husband and wife.” “Um-”“Grandpa, Lora and I will work things out by ourselves,” Ryan said and Lora gave him a grateful look. “If you say so… I’m just glad that Larisa is alive! So, when am I meeting my grandkids?” Charles asked and Lora’s eyes widened. “You even know about the twins?” Lora’s face had a question mark. Did Ryan’s grandfather ask someone to investigate her?Charles nodded proudly and answered, “Of course. I found out first before everyone else. However, I won’t tell you how… it’s a secret.” “Twins? What twins?” Diane asked, feeling confused and then a lightbulb went off in her head. Her mouth rounded in shock before she exclaimed, “You and Ryan have twins? So, I’m an aunt?” Lora nodded, a smile forming on her lips at the thought of her children. She replied, “Yes. A boy and a girl. I’m sure they will be happy to meet you, Diane.”“Ah! I can’t wait!

Chapter 74~ What if...

“Are you ok?” Jason asked Lora on their way to her apartment. When Lora left Ryan’s ward, she found Jason waiting for her outside. He offered to take her home for a shower and a change of clothes. Even though he had a lot on his mind, he didn't say anything to Lora apart from that question. Lora glanced at him and sighed. Jason was so good to her, but she just couldn’t bring herself to love him. However, she couldn’t hurt him either when he had done nothing to deserve that. “I’m ok, Jason. I wasn’t hurt that much compared to Ryan. He’s in a bad state,” Lora replied. An awkward silence fell upon them for a few seconds before Jason remarked, “I wish I was the one who saved you.”Lora frowned. She glanced at Jason and said, “Don’t say that again… I already feel guilty about Ryan’s injury, I wouldn’t want someone else getting hurt because of me.” “I know but… perhaps him saving you would make you love him again,” Jason uttered in a low voice. “Although Ryan saved me, I can’t just fo

Chapter 75~ Trust

Lora quickly showered and went to the living room. As promised, the twins gave her a clumsy foot massage. “Do you feel better, Mommy?” Ella asked as she tried her best to use her little fingers to massage one of Lora’s legs.Although Lora felt like she was being tickled, her heart felt full. She smiled and said, “Thank you so much… the massage has made me feel better.” Ethan had a serious look on his face as he worked on Lora’s other leg, pretending to be a professional masseur. Bianca chuckled and took a picture of this scene. She remarked, “You’re so lucky to have such adorable twins, Lora. They love you so much.” “I love Mommy and since Daddy is not yet here, I’m going to continue giving her foot massages and rubbing her back,” Ella proclaimed and Lora’s heart skipped a beat. The kids had never bothered her about meeting their father. However, it didn’t mean she couldn't see the longing look in their eyes each time they saw other children with their fathers at the theme park.

Chapter 76~ The Thugs

“Ryan, wake up it’s time for your meds,” Lora said to the man who was sleeping soundly on the hospital bed. A few days had passed and Ryan’s injuries had started to get better. Throughout the days, Lora stayed by his side as she promised. However, the man spent most of those days sleeping due to the strong pain medication he was being given. When there was no response from Ryan, Lora frowned. It’s normal for someone to oversleep when not well but she had noticed that Ryan was taking longer to wake up the past few days. She reached for him and shook him lightly, saying, “Ryan, wake up, it’s time for your medication."Lora frowned. Ryan was usually a light sleeper. How come he couldn't wake up even after she shook him? "R-Ryan?” She tried again, shaking him lightly. However, Ryan’s head suddenly lolled to the side, making Lora’s heart drop to her feet. She glanced at Ryan and noticed his face was pale and his lips looked too dry. Fear crept into her and twisted her gut. He looked l

Chapter 77~ First mission

"Don't come near me! You're a ghost! Stay away!" The thug yelled, his eyes and mouth rounding in shock. Was he seeing things? This woman who had appeared beside Ryan Kingsley no longer exists in this world. He shared looks with his friends who were equally terrified and his heart jumped to his throat. They saw her too... which means she was alive. But how?“It can’t be… how are you still alive? I killed you myself!” The thug yelled, his body trembling from fear. He was shocked to see the woman he had burned alive come back to life. Six years ago after they made a huge amount of money from working with Ivy Williams, the thugs left the Country to avoid being caught. However, they ran out of money and didn’t really have connections abroad. So they decided to return to Moonstone City and see if they could reclaim their turf. What they didn’t expect was to be caught by Ryan Kingsley’s men the moment they entered the City. Didn’t Ivy Williams say the woman they killed wasn’t that impor

Chapter 78~ Get it off

At the Williams’ mansion the next day… Ivy dressed up in a gorgeous emerald green gown, ready for the engagement ceremony. Although she hadn’t seen Ryan since Lora's kidnapping incident because he claimed to be busy, she didn’t really care since Lora was gone for good now. Whether Ryan liked it or not, Ivy was the only one he could marry in this lifetime. A smirk crossed her red-coloured lips as she stared at herself in the mirror. She was beautiful. Her blonde hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall, her skin as fair as snow and her lips were shaped like a bow. She had beautiful green eyes that could make any man fall for her. So, why didn’t Ryan love her? Why did he only have eyes for Lora? Even when Lora had another man, Ryan still kept her in his heart. Ivy frowned, irritation flaring through her at the thought. It didn’t matter anyway… in the end, she was getting what she always wanted- power. Being a Kingsley meant being the most powerful person in the city. She

Chapter 79~ I still won

Earlier, before Ivy arrived at the venue, Ryan glanced at Adan and asked, “Is the gift ready?” Adan laughed when he remembered what gift Ryan was talking about. He shook his head and said, “You know what… I had forgotten how crazy you can be. How did you even think of that?”Ryan smirked. He remarked, “Ivy is cunning… if I just accused her of being able to walk in public, do you think she would willingly accept defeat? She would probably put on a show and make us look like we are bullying a poor disabled woman.” With Ivy's acting skills, Ryan was very sure she would manage to weave herself out of a difficult situation. What he wanted was to expose her clearly in front of everybody so that everyone knows what kind of snake she was. “Well, I must say your plan is genius. Ivy won’t even realise that she’s exposed herself until a few seconds later,” Adan responded. "I have it close by. When you need it, I'll bring it to you." Ryan nodded. Tonight, he was determined to deal with Ivy on

Chapter 80~ Teasing

Ivy froze when she heard that voice. A chill ran down her spine and her heart jumped to her throat. She glanced at the crowd, wondering if she was hearing voices. Did Lora come back to haunt her as a ghost?Soon, a woman emerged from the crowd. She looked hot, wearing a red sequin off-the-shoulder gown with a highslit. The woman was the epitome of beauty. She turned heads wherever she passed... She looked so graceful and elegant and her presence commanded the hall's attention. Everyone watched as she gracefully made her way up the stage and Ryan was quick to approach her. He smiled before holding her hand and bringing it to his lips, placing a soft kiss on her fair hand. “You’re just on time for the show,” Ryan remarked, a smirk playing on his lips.The woman smiled and replied, “I couldn’t miss it for anything in the world.” At the same time, Ivy’s jaw had dropped to the floor. She glanced at the woman with wide eyes, unable to believe what she was seeing. "N-No... it... it can
