"How could you stoop so low!"

Swallowing hard, I moved my head to the direction the loud voices came from. My vision was all blurred out because of the tears that streamed down my face - hot, unending, unforgiving.

It was out of my control.

Everything was out of control

"I did it for my family." Delilah stood her ground as she spoke to her husband, repeating the word she'd been saying since the revelation.

Tiredly, I turned my head to the other end of the room where Rachel - I couldn't even call her mother. A mother who couldn't feel her child? A mother who didn't think twice to hurt another person because it wasn't your child?

Devani and his wife argued seriously. She was equally crying. The cries hadn't stopped since we returned from the event. "You're wicked. How could you hide my child from me"

"Did you listen to me when I told you I had a hunch? Did you listen to me when I told you not to adopt that fucking child then?" Devani's voice cracked as he yelled. "You never listen, R

    Grisella's POV Rachel's cries had gotten louder than everEverywhere was quiet, you could hear a pin dropI was no longer shocked by any news I was going to hear anymore because I was suddenly numb.Or at least, that's what I thought.My body was here but my soul - lost and dead. The only reaction my body was exuding was tears. Painful tears."Finally!" Hannah, I mean Janet, stepped to the stage.To say I saw this coming would be a lie. A fucking big lie."Fuck" I heard Julian say. He didn't know this one."I guess you all didn't see this coming" Vector hugged his child. "You've made daddy proud""I did everything for you, Hannah. How could you do this" Rachel cried, pointing at Hannah a.k.a Janet.Scoffing, Hannah rolled her eyes - no damn remorse. "Dearest mum, you almost switched your attention to Grisella when father became too interested in her. You think I don't know?" Hannah eyed Rachel "Oh my God! My heart isn't working anymore" Rachel was being overly dramatic but I could r

    Grisella's POVEveryone was talking at the same time. The noise grew louder and louder as I quietly stared around. They were judging me. "Grisella is not your name, Darling girl" He announced again, loud and clear.No ambiguity. "Vector, this is -""Oh, looks like your little boyfriend knew all along" Vector turned to Julian who stared at me pitifullyI looked into his eyes, begging him to tell me he didn't know. Begging him to pretend like he didn't know. Begging him to say anything along that line.He avoided my eyes, answering my silent question. I gasped, closing my mouth. "Devani doesn't look shocked either so I'm guessing he knew before now too" The more Uncle Vector spoke, the more my heart squeezed in my chest."You.. you lied to me too" I pointed at him, walking closer. "Aww, get over it darling" He waved his hand dismissively. Everyone made way for me to come forward. They all stood, their phones in their hands. They were filming us."Uncle!" I yelled in disbelief He

    Vector's POVI had planned so long for this day.The day I'd finally get what I truly deserved.The day where I'd bring down everyone who took what was rightfully mine. "It all started from when my father decided to have another bloody ass son" I chuckled darkly. My mother and father separated a long time ago, barely before I could even say the word "Daddy" properly. Three years later, he brought in a bastard and his damn mother. She was always too nice and It got to a point I didn't like it at all and figured out her games.~"Darling, would you be staying over? You should keep your baby brother company" She always said. Naive me would happily look after her son and play with him.~Mama warned me that she was playing a sneaky game and she would take everything meant for me and give it to her son.~"You're old enough. That's for Lorenzo" Papa always said, promising to give my own gift to my mother when he got one~It never came. He was such a huge liar. Then we got older and he bec

    Grisella's POVI was ready.I was ready to tell Julian everything. I trusted him now and I didn't want to hide anything from him."You can do this" I said to myself, putting on my lipstick as I got ready for the dinner.Something about this Uncle's Dinner stirred a weird feeling inside of me. A part of me felt like it was going to be a disaster.Maybe I'm just paranoid."It can't be that bad" I shrugged, dropping the lipstick back on the dresser. "Something is missing" I looked at myself in the mirrorAll I could see was a broken girl who was heading towards a dark lonely path. A broken girl who had learnt to put on a facade so, so good that she had almost lost herself.If not lost herself "I know what's missing" Julian's voice broke me out of my thoughts. I smiled up at him from the mirror when he placed a soft kiss on my cheekHe has been very supportive this period. He didn't even question me much and has been silently giving me emotional support. He didn't even know"My kiss for

    Julian's POV"Are you listening to me?" I wasn't.Ever since Nanny Toria told me everything I needed to know about my - I couldn't even refer to her as my mother. I had just been down."Honestly, no" I told Ace truthfully."Come back when you care about her health" He sighed, pushing his chair back.Shit. Grisella's health."Is it getting worse?" I asked, focusing my whole attention on him now.He shut his head, exhaling sharply before nodding his head like it pained him to admit to such. "How would you know?" I frowned at him. She hadn't even come for a check up yet."She came in few days ago for a check up. I told her I'd get back to her on the result but -""Grisella came here?" I was startled. He raised his eyebrow at me in confusion. "Didn't you tell her I knew about her illness?"I shook my head. "Of course she'd know you're involved""Well, it doesn't matter. I ran an X-ray scan on her and it was bad. I don't -""What do we have to do next. I'll pay for anything" I told him
