LESLIE'S POV

My heart palpitated as I stared into his eyes. He didn't just say that, did he?

He chuckled when I just stared at him without blinking. He moved closer to me and stretched his hand out to open the door behind me. He put his hand under the car door frame and pushed me in gently. He came in right after me, instantly cramping the car.

“Where are we going?” I asked.

“To get your things.”

I gulped and nodded before moving closer to the window. My mood grew morose as I stared outside,

    LESLIE’S POVI sat up slowly, my body feeling like it was run over by a truck. I touched my forehead, noticing a damp towel on it and pulled it away. I jumped when I finally noticed mum beside my bed, she was asleep.I shook her gently. “Mum? Why are you sitting on the floor?" Her eyes fluttered open and her face contorted with worry. “Why are you up already? You had a fever last night and you were crying and talking in your sleep." She leaned up to touch my forehead. “Thank goodness, it is not as hot anymore. What have you been up to lately? You didn't sleep at home for two days and when you came back, you had a fever." I smiled at her nagging and held her hand. “I'm fine now. Sorry to have made you worried." “You don't have to keep it all bottled in, Leslie,” she said and I froze.It was the first time she had called me by my name. I was always ‘child’ or ‘you’, not Leslie.I gripped her hands tightly. “Do you…do you remember me? You…you called my name.”"Did I forget you before?

    LESLIE'S POV “Ana!" I fell to my knees and crawled to the edge, my hand stretched out to grab her but I was too late. Time froze and I could only watch helplessly as my sister fell down a great height, her scared eyes on me. I screamed and leaned forward as she slammed against the ground, blood pooling underneath her almost immediately. “Liliana!" Saint yanked me back and pulled me to my feet with my shoulders. He shook me harshly. “Are you crazy? Are you trying to fall with her too? Do you not have any fear at all?" “Let me go." I struggled against his hold, my eyes and my thoughts on the edge of the rooftop. “My sister…my sister is down there. I have to go to Liliana. I have to go to her!”“Get yourself together!" He grabbed the back of my head and forced me to keep my eyes on him. He was furious. “There is nothing you and I can do now!" My lips trembled and I grabbed his arm as I fell to the ground. I hit the ground with my fist and cried out, my body shaking with tears.“Lesl

    LILIANA’S POVI sat on the ground with my leg crossed, my head raised to the heavens. I couldn't believe that I've never been to the company's rooftop in all my years of working here. The sky looked close enough to touch from here.I closed my eyes as the wind blew my hair in my face, it was so peaceful. Unlike the crossfire I was facing online. Like a bad habit, I grabbed my phone and checked my name on the trending list again.I had read so much of the hate comments that it now felt like I was reading a novel in which I was the main character. I had yelled, cried and cursed enough.Now, I was just numb.‘I’ve always known there was something weird about her. Cheating on your husband is one thing but recording for social media, that's another level of bravery. She never loved that man.’A mocking smile spread on my lips. They were not wrong at all.‘This is quite shameful for both the Baxter and Webster family. How is she supposed to show her face in public going forward?’‘If I was

    LESLIE'S POVI blinked my eyes open again, the sunlight from the window piercing and unavoidable. I groaned and the next second, the curtains were dropped.I raised my head to see Saint on the phone standing in front of it. I sat up, noting that his shirt was on my frame and we were still in his hotel room Tom booked.I headed for the bathroom first to wash my face and brush my teeth before returning to the bedroom. Saint was still in front of the window so I walked up to him and hugged him, his steady heartbeat almost lulling me back to sleep.He kissed my forehead and ended the call immediately. His fingers brushed my hair out of my face. “Did you sleep well?" I looked up and hummed. "Why did we not go back last night?”"You seemed tired and there was no harm in staying,” he shrugged. “The estate might not be the best place to be at the moment." “What about Liliana? Is she fine?" I bit down on my lips.“She's fine, I have not done anything to her." He grabbed my cheeks. “Leslie, y

    SELENE’S POVMy heels kicked the floor as I waited for Julian to pick me up. I glanced at my wrist watch and exhaled, thirty minutes had gone by. I had been waiting out here for thirty minutes in the biting cold, even my coat couldn't shield me anymore. But we planned this together. He wouldn't stand me up.I gripped the end of my skirt, my rings digging into my palm. I even put on a skirt for the first time in a while for him. So I stubbornly stood there, my eyes permanently on my watch. 8:10.8:20, 8:30, 8:40, 8:50.9:00.A sad smile stretched on my lips. A leopard never changes its spot, does it?I nodded and walked back into the house, the dark house mocking me. I kicked off my heels and dropped on the sofa without turning on the lights. I stayed that way for a while, my thoughts on a standstill as I reveled in the darkness. I shouldn't have put my hopes on him.At the end of the day, it was all my fault for expecting too much.I pushed away from the sofa just as I heard the ke

    LESLIE'S POVI rested on the wall, catching my breath. My body was on fire but the slight blood loss helped to clear my head a bit. I nodded in satisfaction when Tom closed the door of the room and turned away from it before I felt the urge to save her.That could have been me and she wouldn't have felt any pity for me. I finally realized that I had underestimated Liliana’s hate for me all this time. She was no longer the little girl that ran after me when I just arrived at the Webster mansion. This was a woman who saw me as her worst enemy and rival.It took me too long to understand and accept this.“Are you okay?" Orlando helped me to stand up straight but I refused to lean against him, not when I was like this.“Call Saint. Call my husband." I shook my head."He's already on his way. Should I book a room for you in the meantime?” I nodded, too weak to say anything else. I was barely conscious as Tom helped me up to the room while Orlando stayed behind to guide the private room.
