~Lilith's POV~

When I got to Bastian's room, I could hear low, harsh whispers. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, I swear, but I couldn’t help it.

Bastian’s voice sounded so broken that it tore at something inside me, a piece of me, longing to take away all his hurt.

“How could you do this to me?” he yelled, his voice hitching, and the raw pain in it shattered my heart into a million broken pieces.

“What do you mean you didn’t mean to hurt me? And yet, you kept the fact that you got pregnant with my child after you literally drugged me to get back at your husband?!” he snarled.

I had never heard Bastian sound so angry. He was such a sweet soul, but these people; his own family, had pushed him to the edge. And if I wasn’t mistaken, he was speaking to Alfonso’s wife.

“I don’t want to meet with you, Lucy.”

That confirmed my suspicion. It was Lucy. The woman had the nerve! She had used Bastian to get back at her husband, and now she wanted to use him again, to save her son.

Well, logically, Bas

  • Craving Daddy's Bestfriend    Chapter 59: That's not true.

    ~Beatrice's POV~I was drinking my morning coffee when Thomas ran into the kitchen. I was already reaching for a knife he hugged me."Beatrice," he said, his eyes bright with excitement. "Sebastian is awake."I nearly dropped my cup. "What? Are you sure?""The hospital just called. He woke up an hour ago. He's asking for Lilith."My heart jumped. This was the first good news we had gotten in days. If Sebastian was awake, he could tell everyone that Lilith is innocent. That would go a long way in helping Lilith's case."We have to go see him," I said, dropping my cup."Are you sure that's a good idea?" Thomas asked. "The media is watching everything we do.""I don't care about the media," I said. "If Sebastian can help Lilith, we must talk to him."Thomas nodded. "Okay. Let's go."We drove to the hospital in Thomas's car. I was so nervous I couldn't sit still. What would Sebastian say when he saw me? Would he blame me for what happened to Lilith? I have not seen him in years.When we g

    ~Lilith's POV~The jail cell was cold and smelly. The bed was hard. I had I never slept on anything so hard. I have been trying my best not to throw up, but it has been so difficult because of the old sock smell the room has.I had been here for two days now. Two days of hell. I still can't actually believe I was in prison. I try my best to wrap my head around it but I just can't understand how I got roped in all this mess.There were other women in the cell that looked at me like I was some kind of freak. They whispered about me when they thought I couldn't hear or when they think I am sleeping."That's the politician's daughter," one of them said. "The one who killed that maid.""Rich girl thinks she can get away with murder," another one laughed.I wanted to scream at them that I was innocent. But what was the point? No one would believe me.The food was horrible. Gray soup that tasted like rotten water with a piece of hard bread that smelled spoilt fish. I could barely eat anythi

    ~Beatrice's POV~I was sitting in the lawyer's office when my phone started ringing non-stop. The first call was from my assistant."Madam, you need to see the news," she said, her voice shaking. "It's about Lilith."My blood went cold. Those bastards! "What about her?""Turn on Channel 7. Right now."I grabbed the remote and turned on the TV in the lawyer's office. What I saw made me feel sick.There was a picture of my daughter on the screen. The headline read: "POLITICIAN'S DAUGHTER ARRESTED FOR MURDER."The news reporter was talking fast. "Twenty- two-year-old Lilith Morrell, daughter of politician Beatrice Romano, has been arrested for the murder of Jessica Williams. The victim was a maid who worked for the wealthy Lockhart family."I felt like I couldn't breathe. This was happening too fast."The murder took place at the old pier last night. Police found strong evidence linking Miss Morrell to the crime," the reporter continued.Then they showed a picture of me. "Her mother, Be

    ~Lilith's POV~I woke up to the sound of my phone buzzing. The room was still dark. I looked at the clock. It was 3 AM.Who would be texting me this late?I picked up my phone and saw a message from an unknown number. My heart stopped at first until when I read it.~"Miss Lilith, this is Jelly. I have something very important to tell you about Mrs. Ellana's death. I think I found evidence. Meet me at the old pier at 4 AM. Come alone. This is dangerous but you need to know the truth."~Jelly? This late?I sat up in bed, my mind racing. Why would Jelly contact me? And what evidence could she have about Ellana's death? Could this be another trap? Another message came through.~"Miss Lilith, I'm sending you some pictures. Look at them carefully. Mrs. Lucy and Mr. Alfonso killed Mrs. Ellana. I have proof. I was there that night. I am finally willing to submit all the evidence since I am working for you now."~My hands were shaking as I opened the pictures. The first one showed Ellana's ca

  • Craving Daddy's Bestfriend    chapter 55: I am too old for you.

    ~Beatrice's POV~I was still staring at my phone, my hands shaking as I remembered that horrible night thirteen years ago. Rebecca's cruel message. Those pictures. The way my world had fallen apart in that moment.The pain was still fresh, even after all these years. The betrayal. The humiliation that followed consistently after. The way Marcus had chosen her and not even Lilith. And now, he is acting and protraying himself as the saint and I the evil one."What are you thinking so hard about that you didn't notice when I entered your room?"Thomas's voice pulled me from my dark thoughts. I quickly put my phone face down on the nightstand, my heart jumping."Nothing," I said dismissively, not looking at him.How long had he been standing there? How much had he seen? I felt exposed, vulnerable and he didn't have to do anything at all, that's how much of a chokehold he had me on.Thomas didn't say anything at first. He just walked toward the bed and sat down. I could feel his eyes on me

  • Craving Daddy's Bestfriend    Chapter 54: July 14th.

    ~Beatrice's POV~I silently entered my daughter's room. Looked at her sleeping face. Looked a face that looked exactly mine when I was her age. She had her my eyes and her father's red hair just like Thomas.I sat closed to her and gently rub on her face. I had wanted to just let everything go. Forget I ever had a daughter after all, I have hurt her so much. I hated myself and how I lost myself after the betrayal of Marcus." I am sorry, my sweet girl. I am so sorry. I am only trying to protect you and myself. I am sorry for letting my rage for the Lockharts hurt you. But, I swear, I was only saving you," I whispered in between tears.I stood up, not wanting my tears to fall on her and wake her up. I wish I had been around and not let her get involve with Bastian. I wish Marcus wasn't such a foolish man and he had actually protected his daughter.I closed Lilith's bedroom door softly and walked to my own room. My hands were still shaking from everything that had happened tonight. The
