Hidden Truths 8
Today should be November 15th. I opened my eyes and glanced at the calendar on my phone.When I woke up, a doctor in a white coat was standing beside me. I remembered him; his name was Henry Lewis, my senior and also my attending doctor.Then there was another man... At this moment, he was standing in front of me, looking hostile."You faint so easily, Mia Frank. When did you start learning how to act?" he sneered.My head throbbed for a moment, and I finally recalled his identity."Aren't you engaged now? What are you doing here?" I replied.Xavier smiled and replied without directly answering, "After I brought you here, I heard that you've been coming to see this pretty boy frequently."I was curious before, about how you spent those two years when you disappeared. Now it's clear," he added.He walked up to Henry and looked at him menacingly. "It's a pity, though. You couldn't do it in two years."In the end, it still benefits me," he hinted blatantly, causing a sharp pain in my
Hidden Truths 9
Henry had booked my flight to Germany for next week. Before leaving, I bought grapes, Xavier's mother's favorite, to pay my respects at her grave. It had nothing to do with Xavier; I owed her my gratitude.Xavier's mother was buried in the most luxurious cemetery on the outskirts of the city. Her photo on the tombstone showed her smiling gently, just as I remembered her.I bent down to tidy up the tombstone when I heard a familiar voice from behind. "Miss Frank, why are you here?"It was Wendy. She spoke gently, "Are you here to tend to my mother-in-law's grave? How thoughtful of you. But there's no need for that in the future. I will have people take care of it."In front of me, she tossed aside the flowers I had brought. My gaze fell on her wrist, and I saw the familiar bracelet. I clenched my fist tightly. "How did this bracelet end up with you?"Wendy's every move oozed arrogance. "It was given to me by Xavier. He said it's a gift from his mother to his future daughter-in-

I was so annoyed, hearing the arguing voices. While still in a daze, I struggled to open my eyes, only to witness two handsome men in front of me engaged in a fight. Their faces were bruised, and the security personnel were trying to separate them, cautiously soothing them, "Calm down, let's discuss this calmly."I sat up, looked at the man in the white coat, and reached out, calling him over. However, the other man in the suit seemed more agitated. He knelt in front of my hospital bed, his face covered in tears and snot, "Mia baby, do you remember me?"Mia baby? Why would someone call me that? I furrowed my brows, pulling my hand away from his grasp. "Who are you?"Do I know you?"Henry, is this man your friend?"I was a bit bewildered, my mind in a state of confusion. Henry came over quickly, his face turning pale. "Mia Frank, what are you saying? You really don't remember him?"I blinked, pondering carefully, but I didn't recognize him at all. Suddenly, Xavier raised his v

“I'm pregnant?”When I learned about this, I almost passed out in shock.I didn't even have a boyfriend; how could I be pregnant?Henry was deeply concerned and took me for a series of examinations.Xavier didn't seem happy either, his gaze toward me was filled with mixed emotions, and it felt like he could burst into tears any moment."Why am I pregnant, do you know whose child it is?"I only trusted Henry, but he refused to tell me. He simply mentioned that my health wasn't good, and the child might not survive.Well, if it can't survive, so be it. After all, even if it's born, I wouldn't be able to take care of her.I slept carefree, eating and then sleeping again. Although I constantly forgot things, every day was filled with happiness.Until one day, a woman appeared."Mia, you did this intentionally, using a child to tie down a man. How despicable."She was quite attractive, but her attitude towards me was far from friendly.I didn't want to engage with her, but she persisted.

When I woke up, both Xavier and Wendy were gone. When Xavier left, he made me a promise, "Mia, wait for me to come back. I'll explain everything, don't forget me. Things aren't the way she says."Remember or forget, it didn't matter to me anymore. For the next three days, Xavier didn't show up. Naturally, the child didn't survive, and I accepted this reality without tears or tantrums. Several times, Henry wanted to talk to me, but I shook my head to stop him. My mental state had finally recovered, but I didn't want any negative topics brought up in front of me.Henry started to tell me about the sanatorium I would be staying in Germany. "It has a great environment, serves delicious food, there are daily check-ups by doctors, and they organize trips every quarter. I'll take you when the time comes and we can explore all of Europe."I shrugged indifferently. "Doesn't matter; I'll forget it all once I'm there."Realizing I had misspoken, I quickly added, "But I'm happy as long as I'
Hidden Truths 1
In the fourth year of me being imprisoned by Xavier Quinn, he had a fiancée. It was said that the Santana Group's heiress, Wendy Santana, was gentle and intelligent, a perfect match for Xavier Quinn. They had been in contact for over half a year, and marriage discussions were in progress. In these years, the women around Xavier came and went, most of them passing through without him showing much interest.A friend called me and said, "It seems he's serious this time, the other woman is not only beautiful but also beneficial to his career."I had heard something about it, but I didn't expect to meet Wendy Santana for the first time at Xavier's company. That morning, I went to the hospital for a follow-up appointment, and my attending doctor was my senior from school. He told me that my condition was deteriorating rapidly, and I might forget everything in just three months. "Are you really not going to tell Xavier Quinn? If you tell him now, he might still turn back." I thought abo

"When I was fifteen years old, I already knew Xavier. I've spent much more time by his side than you have, and my qualifications are far higher."And also... you're just known as his fiancée by the outside world. He has never publicly acknowledged you."My words hit a nerve with Wendy, and she dropped her pretentious high posture, shouting uncontrollably, "He will marry me sooner or later, whereas you're just an old woman he got tired of playing with. He keeps you around out of pity. I advise you not to push your luck."Who knows what you went through during your two-year disappearance; maybe you've been with men all that time, and now you still want to compete with me..."As she spoke, her eyes glanced toward the door, and the next moment, she picked up the water from the table and poured it on her own face."So cold."The delicate features of her face were stained with water, and her hair and foundation mixed together, giving her an indescribable vulnerability.Xavier, through the me

He looked at me, his smile not quite reaching his eyes. "What kind of agreement?"Is it money or property? You've been pretending to be all high and mighty for so long, couldn't hold back any longer and had to ask for money?"I was accustomed to his sarcastic remarks, and besides, he wasn't entirely wrong; the essence of the agreement was indeed about money."No problem, I can agree to what you want. The condition is that you apologize to Wendy."Xavier had resented me for leaving him in the past, and he rarely had an opportunity to humiliate me. He wouldn't miss this chance.I tightened my fists at my sides. "Do you really think I'm bullying her?""Whether you are or not doesn't matter. I want you to apologize right now. Will you apologize or not?"He just wanted to humiliate me, all to please another woman.My eyes felt a bit dry, and suddenly, an image from high school flashed in my mind. He used to stand up for me and scold those who bullied me. He wasn't the current CEO back th
