Dear fiancé: I am beautiful again

CHAPTER ONEKeisha's PovLIFE OF KEISHA “You’ve put on so much weight,” George, my fiancé said to me, an irritated look on his face and I immediately turned to the mirror beside me, staring at it with a sad smile.“I know,” I sighed painfully. “I’m trying everything I can to lose weight but it’s not working,”Things were not always like this. Just about a year ago, I was the perfect girlfriend for George. Happy, vibrant, and fulfilled. Not until I was diagnosed with a hormonal imbalance called PCOS. It was an ovarian syndrome that causes fertility issues and one of the side effects was weight gain and difficulty in losing it. It made me have extreme cravings and gain weight uncontrollably.I knew it was my hormonal imbalance working but I felt guilty for eating food. Sometimes, I would go to the bathroom and stuff my hand into my mouth so I could vomit everything I’d eaten. I tried diets and workouts but none of it was working.George’s treatment towards me changed immediately I adde

CHAPTER THREEA NEW IDENTITY I slowly opened my eyes as I held my head in pain. The lights in the room blurred my vision and I squinted my eyes. I managed to open them again and saw that I was laying on a bed in an empty room. It was obvious it was a hospital.I sat up, wondering why there were drips and wires connected to my body. The door suddenly opened and a nurse walked in.“You’re awake!” She gasped in shock and then smiled.I couldn’t remember anything at the moment and I wondered what was going on and how I got here.The nurse explained to me that I have been in a coma for three years and I was shocked to hear that. I suddenly remembered George and how he conspired to push me down the cliff.My face creased in a frown, a flow of blood rushed through my veins in anger. They were such wicked people and I would make sure I dealt with them. For now, I need to focus on myself.“So who has been paying my bills?” I asked curiously, still confused about the whole situation.“Doctor L

CHAPTER 5THE REVENGE PLAN.That evening, I visited a mineral shop and sold a quarter of the gold, which I deposited into my new bank account because I planned on using a check.I also went to a boutique and got myself some dresses and shoes. I was going there as a potential investor and client. I had to look the part.I decided that I'd sleep in the house that night. I wanted to feel my family’s presence, to know that I wasn’t alone. All night long my thoughts were haunted by the past, knowing that I'd see George and Tami again, the two people that tried to have me killed filled me with the worst possible anger and dread. I imagined going up there with a gun and shooting them both in the heads, but I knew that I'd be arrested immediately, I would gain nothing and I might never see my brother again. These thoughts calmed me down, and I decided to proceed carefully. Everything depended on me sticking to the scripts, I won’t fuck it up.The next day.I stood outside the sleek glass build

Chapter Seven- Family SecretGabriella's POVSon? Gold digger? Those two words rang loudly in my ears. I took a few steps backward, staggered by the shock. I tried to put two and two together, but everything still felt confusing. I mean, of course, she was definitely Lucian's mother, just judging by her appearance, they looked so much alike. What I really wondered was what she was doing here and why she had tagged me as a gold digger.I managed to step fully into the living room, clutching my bag tight, my eyes never left Lucian's mother for once. His mother eyed me with so much disdain and disgust, that I felt like a complete fool in her eyes, and just as she seemed like she was about to bark another insult at me, Lucian appeared out of nowhere, a charming smile plastered on his face."Gabriella, you are home so soon. I thought you said you had a business dinner?" He raised a brow at me.I gulped a lump down my throat and waved that off immediately. "It has already ended," I said with

Chapter Nine - Surprise VisitGabriella's POV I stood with anger coursing through my veins as I watched the excited grin spread on Tami's face. She did not deserve to be happy, none of them did. At least not after what they had done to me.Suddenly, my thoughts were interrupted by loud cheering. I gasped in shock as I raised my head up to gaze at everyone in the conference room.

Tami smiled. She turned to gaze at me with a raised brow, her smile slowly fading away as she eyed me with disdain. I could tell that Tami was jealous of how close I was getting to George
