Chapter 8

Author: Against the Flow
Soon, Oscar quickly realized that someone was purposely stopping him from finding me. No matter how much manpower he sent out looking for me, some powerful force would always mess up his investigations.

This sent him into depression, and he kept drowning his sorrows in alcohol.

One month later, he still wasn't able to track me down. He went to the place where we met for the very first time and sat down on a rock, staring out into the sky.

He saw some wild daisies in the grass and picked one. Then, he stared at the flower until he fell into a daze.

Evie approached him with a sad look in her eyes. "It's been a month. Are you still refusing to face the truth?"

Oscar didn't answer her. She moved in front of him and crouched down, holding his hand in hers.

"She must know that you're looking for her, but she's staying hidden and refusing to meet you. That means she's disappointed in you. So, why must you continue torturing yourself?"

Oscar frowned, pain reflecting in his eyes. He grip

  • A Heart's U-Turn: It's Never Too Late   Chapter 11

    Oscar never imagined that I would ever slap him. He held a hand to his swollen cheek and cocked his head at me in deep shock and confusion.Dad also stood out and pointed at him in anger. "You bastard! If you dare to humiliate my daughter again, I will wipe your entire family off the face of the earth!"When Oscar finally learned of my true identity, he was beyond shocked. He couldn't even snap back to the present for a long time.When his senses finally returned, the shock and disbelief were still written all over his face. "You actually… You actually hid your status and identity from me! Why didn't you tell me before?"Then, he suddenly grinned in delight. "Since you're a respectable person now, that means you can be with me without a worry in the world! We can make our relationship public! Our family can reunite!"When I saw how materialistic he was, I couldn't help shaking my head in disappointment."In your dreams!"Oscar frowned. Just as he was about to speak, I interrupte

  • A Heart's U-Turn: It's Never Too Late   Chapter 10

    Fortunately for me, I had always known that Oscar was a selfish person. When he was in love, he could promise them the world, but when he was out of love, he would dispose of them at once.While I was still enjoying the juicy pieces of gossip, Mom and Dad arrived with Ingrid. The guests immediately stopped gossiping with each other.Dad caught sight of me and started walking toward me with a smile on his face. He held my hand and introduced me to the rest of the guests."Hello, everyone. This is my daughter, Aurora Finnigan, the next heiress of the Finnigan family."The group of people who'd just gossiped about me earlier immediately looked embarrassed and horrified. It was inappropriate to gossip about people who were standing right next to them, no matter if it was the good kind or the bad kind of gossip.I didn't mind, however, and looked at the guests graciously."Good day, everyone. I am Aurora Finnigan. Thank you for your love and support for my family and me."The guests

    Oscar then flew back to my city. This time, he engaged help from both the authorities and the underground organization to search for me, telling them that I was to be found by hook or by crook.Luckily, my family was powerful and influential enough to stop outsiders from interfering in our lives. After returning to my family, Ingrid and I lived normal, peaceful lives.At first, I thought that I would get a harsh scolding from Mom and Dad when I got back home. To my surprise, they didn't scold me or reprimand me at all—instead they treated me warmly and with much kindness.They seemed even more delighted when they were introduced to Ingrid. They welcomed her into their arms and refused to let go of her. Also, Mom and Dad decided to name Ingrid the next family heiress, and they began properly educating her on everything she needed to know.I found Dad and apologized sincerely to him, admitting that I had made the wrong choice years ago. Dad didn't blame me and comforted me instead.

    Oscar then went home and got himself drunk. When he woke up again, he saw Evie waiting next to him.Since her back was to him, and she was also wearing my pajama set that I had left behind, Oscar thought she was me and immediately pounced on her, hugging her tightly. He cried in relief, "Rora, you've come back!"Evie stiffened, not daring to move.Just as he was about to kiss her, he suddenly caught a whiff of a familiar yet strange perfume scent. He immediately shoved her away and yelled, "Why are you wearing her clothes?"Evie looked back at him and answered in an upset voice, "You got drunk last night and threw up all over me. I didn't have a change of clothes after taking a shower, so I just grabbed one from the wardrobe."Oscar sat down dejected and rubbed his forehead in frustration.Evie burst into tears. "Don't be angry, Oscar. Since she's already gone, you should forget about her and live happily with me."She then caressed her tummy and said, "We'll be even happier as

    I brought Ingrid with me on a flight, and we left for good, never to return. Meanwhile, on the other side of things, Oscar was receiving the well-wishes of his wedding guests.He was just about to put the wedding ring on Evie's finger when he suddenly felt his heart thumping erratically in his chest. He felt flustered all of a sudden.As if having a bad premonition, he quickly whipped out his phone to call me, but he couldn't get through to my number. Then, he read the text message that I sent him.A split second later, his eyes grew as wide as saucers as realization hit him like a lightning bolt. He couldn't stop himself from shivering hard either.He just couldn't believe it. He was absolutely stupefied. When Evie noticed that he was still in a daze and unmoving, she urged him, saying, "Hurry up, Oscar!"Oscar turned to look at her with wide, shaky eyes, reflecting a mix of dilemmas in them.Evie didn't understand his expression, but she noticed that something was wrong. She in
