Rhea's Pov

I stood still, watching Isabelle walk out of the mansion. Her heels clicked lightly against the floor, her hips swaying side and by side and her head high like she was the one who owned this place. She didn’t even look back, but I didn’t miss the way her shoulders stiffened before she disappeared past the gates.

At least she felt threatened enough by me. But still... I was annoyed by her presence and the way her perfume even stayed in the air. Stupid beautiful gorgeous rich lady!

I pressed my lips together, my chest heavy, and without another word I bent down and touched Neveah’s hair, “Come on, let’s go inside.” I whispered softly to her. Then I turned to Laziel, “You too.”

I didn’t look at Alaric. Not once. I was a bit angry, I know it's not his fault, but I was still jealous.

The children followed me in, their small steps echoing in the wide entrance hall. The servants bowed politely, their movements quick and quiet as they carried our luggage up the grand staircase.

    Rhea's Pov I stared at the DNA report in my hands, holding them tightly, even almost crumpling the paper. I wasn't just going to let them give me a test and push it as true without me doing a test of my own. I wasn't that naive. I had conducted my own silent investigation after I had gotten their test reports. I had personally cut the hair samples. I had taken the saliva swabs and even the fingernail clippings from Julian when I was "comforting" him at the hospital. I had kept those samples in my own possession, locked in a safe-box that never left my sight until I handed them over to Nathan. Nathan was the only one I trusted with this. I didn't even tell anyone the name of the secondary hospital I used. Nathan had delivered the samples under a pseudonym, ensuring that no one, not even the lab technicians, knew whose blood they were handling. There was absolutely no way they could have tampered with these results, and yet, the results were identical. The report in my hand was the

    Rhea's Pov. I turned on my heel, but I didn't make it two steps before Alaric’s hand shot out. He caught my wrist, his grip firm but careful, and pulled me back into his chest. His arms wrapped around me. "Let go, Alaric," I hissed, my body vibrating with anger. "Did you see that? Did you see the board? The way he looked at those photos?""I saw it, Rhea," he murmured against my hair, his voice low. "He’s creepy!" I shouted, finally slamming my open palms against the marble island with a sound that echoed through the kitchen. "He’s been stalking me! He stole my handkerchief, Alaric! He was... he was sniffing it like some kind of sick animal." Alaric didn't let go. Instead, he began to slowly pat my back, a rhythmic, calming motion that felt at odds with the storm inside me. "I know. I know it’s revolting. But you need to breathe. Look at me, Rhea."I pulled back just enough to see his face. His eyes were dark, filled with a cold, calculated intensity."Calm your anger just for a

    Rhea's Pov. "Someone claimed you as his daughter?" Alaric repeater slowly. "Can you actually explain what you mean by that? How could someone you don't know 'claim' you as his daughter?" Alaric poked his head out of the kitchen where he was doing the dishes, confusion on his face was as clear as day. I told him everything that happened, from Arthur fainting to the man, Julian saying I was his daughter and he listened attentively, not even interrupting. After I finished, the whole kitchen turned silent, so silent that even the drop of a pin could easily be heard."So, do you think you and the man hold any form of resemblance?" Alaric questioned. "Yes. I even took a picture when he wasn't looking so I could show you." I pulled my phone from my pocket and I navigated to the gallery and opened the photo I’d managed to snap in the hospital room. I slid the device across the marble countertop toward Alaric.He dried his hands on a towel and picked it up. He squinted at the screen, his ga

    Rhea's Pov"What the hell is going on? Why are you both staring at me like that?!" The younger man, the one who had just burst in calling Arthur "Dad" didn't move. He just stared at me with an expression that shifted from shock to hope. He straightened his disheveled coat as he took a tentative step toward me. Before I could demand an explanation again, he reached out. His hands were large, steadying, and warm as they enveloped mine. He gripped them with a desperation that made my skin crawl. "You're my daughter," he whispered, his voice thick with a sudden, overwhelming emotion. "You’re my child." I felt like he had slapped me. For a moment, my brain simply refused to process the words. I blinked, looking at his face, then down at his hands on mine. "What?" I finally croaked. Then, the shock snapped into a sharp, cold rejection. I violently slapped his hands away and scrambled back until my spine hit the cold hospital wall. "Are you crazy?! Get away from me! How can I be your da

    Rhea's Pov “Copy that," she said, not looking up. "Starting high-flow oxygen. Charge the defib just in case."As the oxygen began to flow, the terrifying blue tint in the man’s face slowly started to recede, replaced by a ghostly, waxy grey. It wasn't perfect, but it was life.Carmen came rushing back, looking breathless. "Rhea, we found a visitor’s badge. His name is Arthur but we haven't been able to reach his emergency contact yet. The line just keeps ringing."The paramedics were already lifting Mr. Authur onto the gurney."We're moving him now," the lead medic announced. "Is there any family here?"I stepped forward, straightening my blazer, though my knees were still dusty from the floor. "We haven't located them yet. But I am the co-owner of this building, and I am taking responsibility. I’m going with you."The paramedic looked at me, then at my determined expression. She didn't have time to argue. "Fine. Hop in the front or follow in your car, but we’re leaving now.""I'm co

    Rhea's Pov "So, it’s settled then, Rhea," Carmen said, her voice like velvet as she closed her leather-bound planner. "The winter collection will be launched exclusively through the newly opened galleries. It would be a very large hit.” Carmen had called me to come to the office earlier as I told her I had another idea that would lead to a successful business. We have been talking about this for a while, but today we finally finalized the whole thing. I smiled, feeling that familiar spark of professional satisfaction. "I couldn't agree more, Carmen. Business has never looked better, and with this partnership, I think we’re going to set a record for the final quarter.""To growth," Carmen added, standing up and smoothing out her silk trousers."To growth," I echoed as we walked out of her office together. Carmen was telling me about a new sourcing trip she had planned for the mines in Colombia, her hands gesturing gracefully as she spoke. We were discussing the rising market value o
