Rhea's POV

“Who are you? What do you want with me? Who sent you here?” I fired the questions out like bullets, my voice low but sharp. I kept my posture still, but my fingers curled against the cold metal of the wheelchair, needing something to anchor myself to.

The man behind me chuckled, dark and lazy, like this was all just some amusing little game to him, “Tch. I thought you'd fall to the ground crying. Maybe crawl into the corner and beg me not to hurt you. But instead…” He paused, and I felt the shift in his presence, like he tilted his head to inspect me, “You’re standing. Asking questions. No trembling. Brave little Rhea.”

I swallowed hard, trying to keep my voice from cracking, “Bravery has nothing to do with it. You have a gun to my back. That makes you a coward.”

Another laugh. This one deeper, “Oh, I like you. I see why he does too.” He let out a soft sigh, one that pricked my skin, “As for who sent me… you’ll know soon enough. Very soon.”

  • CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again!   Chapter 202

    Rhea's Pov “K… Kevin…” My voice cracked, trembling along with my entire body. Somehow, I identified with this person more than what he was first trying to show me. This version of Kevin that was unhinged. His eyes gleamed with obsession. His lips twisted into a mockery of a smile as he stepped closer to the bed, his arms slowly rising like he thought we were in some kind of twisted reunion scene. It felt like I had seen it so many times that I wasn't surprised by it anymore. But I was still scared. “I… I need you to leave.” I stammered, inching back until my spine hit the cold metal bed rail behind me. I reached out toward the nurse call button, but he was faster. His hand slammed down on mine, pinning it to the bed. “You’re scared… of me?” He whispered, as though the idea itself was foreign and ridiculous, “No, no, no… Rhea, I’m not here to hurt you. I’m here to take back what belongs to me.” My blood ran cold. What belongs to him…? My heart was pounding against my ribs lik

  • CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again!   Chapter 201

    Rhea's Pov It's already been three days since I woke up from my eight month coma. It hasn't been easy to adapt to the fact that I was unconscious for eight months but so far, so good. Alaric had stayed by my side all second throughout the three days. I had to force him to leave to go to work and when he didn't agree, I literally threatened him that if he didn't leave, I wasn't going to agree to see him for one whole week. Don't insult me, but that's what I could take and apparently, he couldn't so it worked either way. He would stop by later so I was alone and bored. I was staring at the window, my mind oddly quiet despite the whirlwind of thoughts that had been tormenting me all day. The steady beep of the machines, the soft murmur of the nurses outside, and the grey-blue sky beyond the window seemed to lull me into a strange sense of peace. But peace never lasted long for someone like me.A loud crash broke through the stillness like a thunderclap. I jolted, snapping my head arou

    Alaric's Pov “So, that's what happened, isn't it?” I leaned back on my chair, watching the very clear footage on my laptop. “Sir, should we continue trailing her and intercept the servants from being killed?” “No. Don't do that. For now, just keep on watching her and Kevin. I want to see what the both of them will do next. However, if there is absolutely no chance that those servants will be spared, swoop in and save them. Make sure that they don't die. Also, the police who will come to arrest the other girl, make sure they understand that she's a person I planted into that house. It might have been a coincidence that she was picked to take the fall for Ginny's murder but I won't let her go to jail, she hasn't finished her job for me yet.” I said into the phone. “Okay Boss. As for Kevin…” “Leave Kevin alone for now but keep an eye on him. It seems his plan is to make Ginny fall more and more into a web of murder so he can use it against her whenever he wants to. Even wi

    Ginny’s Pov “He… He told me I need to silence everyone who knows. All the servants. He said it’s the only way to cover it up.” I clutched my chest, “I didn’t agree! I said I couldn’t do it, I can’t do it! But he said… He said it was either that or wait for them to turn against me. I… I don’t know what to do anymore. What am I going to do, Dad? What am I supposed to do?!” Howard let out a heavy, guttural sigh. Then, SLAM! His fists crashed down onto the glass table, rattling everything on top, “You absolute idiot!” He roared, “You stupid, naive girl!” I flinched hard, choking on my own breath. “You’re telling me,” He growled, pointing a shaking finger at me, “That you discussed silencing people, killing people, in front of the same servants you want to silence?! Are you out of your mind?!” “I… He tricked me!” I cried, “He said it on purpose. He was manipulating me, he made it sound like it was the only way! And I… I was panicking, I couldn’t think.” “You let fear destr

    Ginny's Pov The second Kevin walked away, it was as though the world lost its oxygen because I could not breathe, my knees gave out immediately and I crumpled to the ground, hard, but I didn’t feel it. My palms dug into the dirt, trying to find something to hold to but the panic was already spreading through my body. My breaths came in sharp, broken gasps, my chest heaving so violently it felt like my ribs would break into pieces. Kevin knew everything that was happened and worse he had said it out loud, in front of everyone. “Silence them all…” His words echoed in my head like a death sentence. “No, no, no…” I whispered, my voice hoarse, almost inaudible, as tears spilled freely down my face, blurring my vision, my head ached in all places and I could barely see, I could barely talk. I tried to call out for someone, anyone, but when I looked up, the yard was empty. The servants had already vanished like rats from a sinking ship. Not even one of them had stayed to help me. Of cou

    Kevin's Pov “S… Silence them all?!” Ginny exclaimed, her eyes wide with shock, “Are you insane? You want me to…” She stopped yelling as her voice turned into nothing but a whisper, “You want me to kill them all?” I shrugged, “It's none of my business if you want the people who know your secret to stay alive. If that maid that you have chosen to go to jail for you decides to implore everyone to help her take revenge, what will you do? It's their testimony against yours. Also, once the police start investigating, it's only a matter of time before they find out the truth. So it's best for you to silence them all, including that maid.” I turned my gaze towards the servant still sobbing on the ground. The rest of them had also started backing away the moment I mentioned silencing them. Ginny's mind might not be fully here to realise that I was intentionally saying this in front of everyone so that they would and could hear what we were planning against them. That way, the game would
