Meredith's POV “That bitch!” I cussed; immediately, Lyon walked out of my office. I couldn't believe that my day would be ruined because of her. When I saw her that morning at the restaurant, I thought it was just a crazy coincidence of bumping into someone from the past, that it was nothing, but the visit from Lyon just now proved my hunch wrong.It was something!It was like the meeting was mediated, and everything from the past was catching up on me. I thought that Jennifer was a thing of the past after Lyon's amnesia, and I wasn't a bit threatened, seeing that she had surgery and recovered from the burn. All those were useless without Lyon's memories, but Lyon had suddenly had questions, and that only means one thing: Jennifer had started testing the waters.“How could I have been clueless!” I screamed as I pulled my hair in anger. My forehead was all clammy with sweat. Even though I kept telling myself that it was nothing, I couldn't help but be paranoid. “What if Lyon had met
Lyon's POV If there was something I picked up from being with Meredith all these years, it was reading her expressions like the back of my hand, and just like right now, Meredith was in shock, and I didn't think I would get a bit of truth out of her. “Why are you shocked? Don't tell me you don't know about it. I mean, if I dated someone, you would get the person investigated, so there's no way that will have escaped you.” I said, and she looked away from me as she wiped the sweat on her forehead.Did Meredith Orlando get uneasy?“Really? What do you take me for? Of course, I didn't do such things, but why are you asking these questions? Do you remember something?” She asked, and I wondered if there was something that I shouldn't forget.“I can't say, but I met someone, and the person says a bunch of nonsense, so I want to confirm from you,” I said, and I saw relief wash over her as I said that. I didn't understand why I felt that studying her facial expression was crucial, but it di
Lyon's POV As I drove to work, I looked at the small bag packed beside me, and I sighed heavily. Everything had been crazy, and I didn't know what to think of it. I thought our relationship would improve after spending a night together, but it looked like she hated my guts, and I couldn't blame her; maybe I sort of took advantage of her.“But I thought she wanted it too!” I screamed as I slammed my hand on the wheel, mourning my heartbreak. I couldn't believe a young girl like that could toy with my feelings, but I would show her who has the upper hand, I thought as I looked at the bag containing her clothes.I would have used the clothes with me to schedule another meeting, but I needed to plan that well. My phone blared with a call from my lawyer.“Hello... ok, I will be there.” I breathed into the phone, and I made a complete turn as I drove along to the place. My car screeched to a halt in front of a garage, and I met my lawyer waiting for me.I was there to meet the young man th
Vera's POV “I'm going to kill her! I'm going to kill her!” I screamed as I turned the hospital room upside down, throwing things around.I couldn't believe what happened at the restaurant that morning. I had imagined how I would act if I ever bumped into Jennifer in the city, but I never could have thought she wouldn't be a pathetic loser, that Lyon abandoned and with her face damaged, and everything working against her. I had thought I would be the one with the last laugh, but who could have thought that Jennifer, whom I treated no better than a beggar, would hold so much power today? She looked as if she had the world under her feet, and with the support of the man behind her, she looked untouchable. I was curious to find out what she had been up to.“That bitch! How dare she think of ruining my face!” I panted as I took my seat back on the hospital bed, and the only reason I hadn't lost my mind was because the doctors said my face didn't suffer severe burns, and with some treatme
Jennifer's POV I never could have believed I would meet the two women who broke me 5 years ago at once, and I wondered if Raphaël planned that, but I was grateful. There wasn't a better way to announce to the two that I was back to make their lives a living hell and pay them back in their coins.“Do I know you, Miss?” Meredith asked, with a straight face, and I smiled. “Of course you do. I mean, we have such an exciting history. Should we go through with that during breakfast?” I asked, and the woman glared hard at me. “I don't think we have such a history, so I will not be a part of this.” Meredith bluffed, and I rolled my eyes at her. “You think so? How convenient,” I blurted, and I glanced at Vera, who scrambled away in fear. What a scaredy-cat.I thought I would break whenever I met with Meredith because I could still remember how her presence then broke me. The woman's appearance in our lives then changed everything. She made me wish for death, and she almost pushed me to it. I
Jennifer's POV I had imagined the day I would hurt Vera over and over again in my head, and I couldn't come up with the best meeting. It all sounded too vague to the pent-up anger I had, and I felt I might not be able to hold my anger well. But walking towards her unaware, while she laughed away with her friend like she had no worries, while I rotted away with anger, this was the best meeting ever, I thought, as I grabbed a hot coffee from the waiter and only stopped when I reached her behind.That evil witch!“Hi Vera, long time no see,” I blurted, and before she could raise her head to check, I emptied the cup of hot coffee in my hand on her. “Ahh!” Her scream filled the air as she touched her face, complaining about the hotness, and I got a bit of satisfaction as she struggled. Even though I knew my pain was greater than hers because I wasn't bathed with a cup of coffee but with acid. “What have you done, crash bitch!” Her wannabe friends who were dining with her came to me, bu
