All Chapters of Wicked Obsession: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

"I'll make sure to pay you, I promise..." Shantala grabbed Chiavelli's hand and looked at him with pleading eyes. "I am not asking for too much... just enough money to–""I can hide you," he said, which surprised her."B-But your brother, he is also after me.""He will not suspect a thing since I never meddle with his business ever since so he would not be suspicious of me. And with your current condition, it is impossible for you to travel alone. Most especially you are not the one who has to survive." He handed her the medicines she needed and helped her stand so they could leave the clinic."What do you mean, Chiavelli?" she asked with confusion."Luckily, your baby is safe but it does not mean that you should be careless. You have to be more careful now.""Y-You mean..."He nodded with a smile. "I lied a while back. Since you wanted to keep your baby, I also made sure that Hyperion won't force you into an a

Following the plan of Chiavelli and Valerie, Shantala stayed in the hotel room for two days. But even though she was in hiding, she could not help but always feel like the hotel staff serving her food and providing her services were secret mercenaries keeping their eyes on her. That was why she requested that they only leave her food by the door and let her be the one to do the daily cleaning of her room.Upon receiving the signal from Valerie about traveling back to Clanera City, she got herself ready. Taking a deep breath, she looked at herself in the mirror and almost did not recognize the reflection that was staring back at her. She had blond hair and deep blue eyes which was contrary to her real eye color. The make-up she wore kept her skin a little bit fairer than before, thus, making her a stranger to herself. That was actually a good thing in order to keep away anyone who was after her. But her worry would not go away because she could not hide the wound o

7 months later…The sun was not yet out that morning but Shantala was up and wide awake already with a wince plastered all over her face. Her back was aching and even though she just got up from bed, she already felt like she did a day full of workouts. Her body just felt sore and fatigued. Still, she went downstairs and decided to spend her time in the kitchen before she went out and had some time to walk towards the nearby river as part of her daily routine. On the other hand, her helper, Melanie, came out from her room yawning and saw her preparing breakfast. She immediately rushed to her side and tried to take her place."Let me do it... you just go there and sit," she said but Shantala slapped her hand away and glared at her."At least, let me do this much. I know having to take care of me is already much of a burden. And not to mention, I kept you awake last night because I could not sleep." Shantala finished what she wa

Even though Chiavelli assured them that he would handle the situation, Shantala did not like the idea. So even though she was told to hide, she just went inside her room and grabbed her gun before walking back downstairs while Melanie was trying her best to stop her.While she was on the staircase, Chiavelli opened the door and the man standing before them was someone he did not know of. He suspected him but upon seeing that he was holding a bag full of strawberries that Shantala had always been eating ever since she got pregnant, he creased his forehead."Oh, wait. I think I got the wrong house," Gavin said, totally confused to see different people in the cottage that he was sure Shantala, aka Kierra, had bought from his father."Wait," Valerie said as she pointed at the strawberries. "Those are for Kierra, right?""Ah, yes, they are. I heard she is obsessed with them so..."Shantala, who was ready to shoot her gun, immediately hid her w

Jasper Lavina, the police officer who called Hyperion regarding Shantala's case, arrived at the mansion of the mafia boss upon getting the instruction to see him there. Upon his entrance with one of Hyperion's men, he saw Stacey Arceo-Ranford. At first glance, he thought that she was Shantala who did not have a scar on her right cheek. But after a few minutes of staring at her, he came to realize that Shantala looked more mature physically. He shook his head, realizing that that was probably the reason why it took Hyperion a while to know that the woman he first married was not actually Stacey."Officer," Stacey called out, snapping Jasper out of his thoughts. "Is something wrong? Why are you here?""Ah, Hyperion called for me," Jasper replied with his casual smile. He was about to follow the lead of his escort but then, they halted when Stacey spoke."Tell me honestly, the matter you are going to discuss with my husband, does it have s
