Rhea's Pov

Alaric, who had been silent for a while, since Laziel started talking, spoke up at this moment, “Laziel, you did something a child should never have to face and now, you're relieving that pain. Are you okay?” He said, his voice very soft.

“Okay? I'm not okay at all.” Laziel shook his head, “I have the blood of someone on my hands, and I'm trying so hard to forget about it, but I can't. I really can't. Anytime I close my eyes, I see blood everywhere, it's never ending. I'm not okay. I'm not okay at all.”

Alaric stood from where he sat and came towards us, sitting next to me. At one point, the artist had left and I didn't even realise that. But that didn't matter.

Alaric's hands came down on Laziel's shoulders, “You don't have to do this alone, Laziel. You have us and we will figure this out one at a time. You're safe now, Laziel, we won't let anything happen to you, no matter what.”

I moved closer and curled an arm around Laziel’s trembling shoulders, drawing him into a

  • CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again!   Chapter 491

    Alaric's Pov “Mr. Alaric.”I didn’t look up immediately. I already knew that tone, overly warm, overly eager. When I finally lifted my gaze, two figures stood before me: a man in his late fifties with a wide, ingratiating smile, and beside him, a young woman dressed elegantly in a deep wine-colored gown. She was beautiful in a polished, deliberate way. The kind meant to impress.They both raised their glasses.“To Mr. Alaric,” the man said cheerfully. “A pleasure doing business with you.”I lifted my glass in response and took a measured drink. It was a form of courtesy and nothing more. Today was the business dinner I told Rhea about and after I leave this place, I'm flying back to Rhea. It's been almost four days since I last saw her and staying here any longer is going to make me lose my fucking mind. At least, there was some peace and quiet, then these ones came. The man chuckled and gestured toward the woman beside him. “Allow me to introduce my daughter, Celeste.”Her lips cur

    Rhea’s PovThe woman jerked violently at my words, her eyes widening in disbelief. “Y… You can’t,” she stammered, shaking her head wildly. “You don’t have that kind of power. You’re just bluffing. You’re nothing in this house.”Her voice echoed too loudly in the hall, sharp and desperate, like she was trying to convince herself more than anyone else. I looked at her for a long moment, then laughed.“Is that so?” I asked calmly.I turned away from her and looked at one of the security guards standing closest to me. “Take her into custody,” I said evenly. “Let her see whether I dare to do exactly what I said or not.” I cracked my knuckles. “I've been craving to do something like this for the longest time. I finally have my wish.” There was no hesitation after my words. Two men immediately tightened their grip on her arms. She started screaming again, louder this time, thrashing as they dragged her toward the inner corridor. Her shoes scraped against the floor, her voice cracking as she

    Rhea's Pov. “You don't understand, Rhea. What Leon wants... is you. He wants to own and possess you. He wants to make you his. If you're with him, then… Things would go smoothly for him. Or so he thinks.” I felt a wave of nausea roll over me so intense that I had to close my eyes. "I don't understand," I whispered, my voice thick with disgust. "If we’re siblings, if we share the same blood, why on earth does Leon want to 'possess' me? We’re siblings, Jace! It’s sickening! It’s disgusting!"Jace’s voice remained unnervingly calm, devoid of the horror I was feeling. "You’re thinking in conventional terms, Rhea. In our world, in families like ours, things are... different. Power is preserved through blood. It’s not uncommon in some circles for cousins to marry to keep the lineage pure. It's about legacy, not just affection.""I don't care about your 'circles' or your 'lineages'!" I hissed, my hand tightening on the phone until my knuckles turned white. "It doesn't matter! Leon and I ar

    Rhea's Pov “Jace?!!”The name left my throat in a strangled yelp that tore through the quiet of the room. I instantly gasped, slamming my palm over my mouth, my eyes darting toward the bed where Neveah lay. I held my breath, watching the soft rise and fall of her chest, waiting for her to stir. After a tense minute, she only shifted slightly, hugging her plushie tighter before settling back into a deep sleep.My heart was thumping against my ribs like a trapped bird. Jace. Leon's brother and the guy I've been avoiding for quite a while now and he said he was my brother?! If he's my brother then… Doesn't that make Leon my brother as well?! If Leon was my brother then why the hell is he this obsessed with me? Had he known that we were family? If he knew about it, how long had he known then? Before I could type anything in response to Jace's words, the phone began to vibrate and it was not a text this time, rather it was a call. The screen illuminated the dim lighted room and a caller

    Rhea's Pov “Don't believe her, okay. She's lying. You're such a lovely and awesome child, if anyone doesn't want you, then that's their loss. A lot of people love you.” I said softly, caressing her very soft hair. Neveah let out a giggle that immediately went through my heart, making me gasp softly. “I know that, mommy. You, daddy, Laziel, a lot of people love me! So I don't think about what that woman says any longer. But seeing Grandma and Grandpa, they must have come to warn you about her, right?” I smirked, ruffling Neveah's hair. “My baby is smart. But you don't need to worry about Sally, she can't hurt you and I won't let her.” “Okay, mommy.” Neveah said. I nodded firmly, kissing the top of Neveah’s head as I gathered her into my arms. After a long, warm soak, I rinsed the last of the soap from her small shoulders. Neveah was resilient, more than she should have to be at her age, but I could still see the faint traces of weariness in the droop of her eyelids."Bedtime, princ

    Rhea's Pov “Yes baby, we're leaving now.” I started the engine but before I drove off, I picked up my phone and sent a message to Alaric, telling him about all that I had just been told. I also told you to round up with whatever he was doing fast enough, so that we could be able to join heads together and think about what we were going to do. I threw the phone into the passenger seat after sending the message and focused on the road. By the time we pulled into the driveway of the villa, the sun was dipping below the horizon, painting the sky in bruises of purple and gold.As soon as we stepped inside, my phone began to buzz in my pocket. I pulled it out and saw Leon’s name flashing on the screen. My jaw tightened. After everything I had just learned, the last thing I wanted to hear was his oily, manipulative voice.I didn't decline the call. I simply swiped the screen to airplane mode, and tossed the phone onto the middle of the bed. "Come on, little bird," I said, beckoning her to
