My eyes scanned the crowd, as I danced on stage with Xavier like we were in love.

His hands wrapped around my waist protectively, while his face was buried in my neck as he trailed wet kisses down.

His hands on my hips constantly moved downward to my ass to grope it, filling me with repulsion.

To anyone we would look like the perfect lovely couple, but to me—there is nothing perfect about a relationship where the two partners constantly soil their bed with others.

I am no better than Xavier, now sleeping with another man.

But do I regret it? Not even one bit.

“If I may cut it,” That velvety voice came cutting our moment short.

I turned to look at a face that I’ll never forget in lifetimes to come, no matter how I try.

A tight smile was etched on his face, almost like he was stopping himself from gritting his teeth, as he extended his hands out to me.

“What are you doing, Mr Blackwood?” Xavier asked, irritated, his hold on me tightening.

“Asking Miss Harnes for a dance. Is there any

    “What?” I gasped with wide eyes.Her scowl deepened, but her hands remained pointed toward the door.“Get out of my house young madam,” she hissed darkly.“I just want to ask about your mother, where is—““If you don’t leave now, I’ll scream of harassment,” she threatened.I watched her with shock, wondering what prompted her to act like this?My mind reeled, trying to find a reason why she must be avoiding my question about Cara.“I’ll only count to three.If you are not out by then—you cannot imagine what I’ll do,” she spat with all seriousness.I said nothing, but stood there, watching her.My fingers wrapped, and clenching around the handle of my bag.My eyes shifted past her to the door behind as I took a deep breath, steadying myself.Nervousness ate its way inside me as the sound of my heart beat echoed in my ears, yet, I won’t allow it stop me.“1!”Immediately she roared those words, I dashed past her, running toward the door behind her.She shouted in rage behind me, but I k

    Shock filled me as I clenched my fists together at my sides trying to keep myself from trembling.My face creased in fake confusion as I watched her.“What do you mean, Jennifer?The old man doesn’t need to tell me directly before I get him water.As you know already, he can’t speak.So how can he possibly express what he needs,” I said, faking a sigh in exasperation.“Water is a necessity.I thought he must be thirsty so I came here to get him one,” I said.My heart pounded erratically.‘I just hope she believes me,’ I thought in fear.She stared me, not saying anything, but I could still see the suspicion briming in her expression.“Then, why was the door locked?”“Are you trying to imply something with that,Jennfier?What are you trying to insinuate with that?” I snapped dramatically watching her flinch.‘Good!’ I thought as I watched her eyes flare wide.She definitely had not expected me to have a backbone to speak back at her.I slipped past her to get a bottle of water from th

    “She killed them with her hands before starting the fire to make it seem like an accident.”I froze the moment he uttered those words.“How?” I whispered, fear stilling me.“She planned everything,” he muttered, and my stomach churned at the thought as bile rose up my throat.“It was not a sprout out action but a full blown murder.She had poisoned them beforehand during their dinner.Then after, she used a kitchen knife in killing them,” he muttered.A shiver rolled down my spine as tremors of fear shot through me—my skin felt like I was walking through pines and needles.“An argument happened between them before that.I have no idea at what point the loud shouts began, which the neighbors had claimed to hear.But after that, she lit the fire burning her parent’s body to the ground,” he finished, flinching slightly as though he was living in the moment.“Why wasn’t she caught?Why didn’t they carry out any investigations on her?” I asked anxiously.My heart pounding erratically again

    “Cara,” The old master breathed.My chest choked up as I realized the last time I had seen her.She had been Ethan’s cook since he was young, and I knew he bore a lot of respect for her.But then, the woman was too quiet and secretive, she barely interacted with anyone.All she did was her job and then, she left without a word.But then—“Grandpa, are you sure Jennifer had not sighted Cara that day?” I asked, my mind reeling with the fear of something big.“Yes, I’m sure.She was too focused on making sure that I was dead, than to observe her environment,” he rasped, his gaze boring into mine.“Cara was hidden from her view, so there is no possible way Jennifer might have seen her,” he continued.But then, his wrinkled brows creased in confusion.“Why are you asking about that?Is something wrong?” He muttered in suspicion and I swallowed.Steeling myself, knowing my conclusion was right, I spoke. “Because, the last time Cara had come to this house was,” I paused, my fist trembling b

    Her voice was calm and cold.“What…what are you saying, child?” I stuttered.My eyes widened as I stared at the stranger before me.Jennifer laughed.A deep, dark laugh, one that sent shivers straight to my spine.“Oh! Don’t act obtuse old man.You clearly know exactly what I’m talking about,” she hissed, moving closer to me until she was just a foot away.“Ethan was, is and will always be mine, and you know it,” she hissed in rage.Her nails dug into the skin of my arms as she gripped them tightly. “I am supposed to be the young madam of the Blackwood’s family.Me!” She screamed, letting go of my arms as she pointed to herself.“Me and no one else!You have always known that, yet, you forced him to marry that stupid bitch, how dare you!” She roared and within a fraction of second, her hands were wrapped tightly around my throat, cutting off my air.My eyes flared in shock, my frail old and weak hands moving to her hands as I struggled to move it away, yet it was futile.“Ethan belo

    The words choked on my chest, and all I could do was stand still and watch the man before me with wide eyes.“Jennifer?Ethan’s friend?” I breathed, my mind still unable to believe what I’ve heard.“Yes, her,” The old master gasped, his voice still low in fear.“But she…she—why would she do that?” I stammered.Still finding it impossible to believe that Jenifer could be as evil as that.I thought she saw the old master like her very own grandfather.She even called him—grandfather.“Why would she try to kill you grandfather? She has no reason to,” I pressed, wanting to know what would prompt a woman like Jennfier to do evil to the old master.The old master laughed. The tone of his laugh rumbled across the air, sending a cool chill in my skin that made me shiver.His voice was calm, low and sorrowful. “I also thought that too.Why would the same girl I took under my wings twelve years ago after her parents' death do that?The same child I fed and treated like my own—the little girl
