LOGINBIANCA.The next morning I woke up and got dressed almost immediately.I haven’t called or texted Liam since last night.There was nothing left to say to him, so I resolved to do whatever I could by myself.I decided to go somewhere else, in search of some help or at least guidance.I knew I had to see Adrian as soon as possible.I arrived at the hospital with great anticipation.Minutes after I arrived, his secretary walked up to me.“This way ma’am,” she said. “Dr Adrian is ready to see you.”I walked into the office and met Adrian with a curious stare.This was my first time here, and I expected him to be anxious about my visit.“Bianca,” he said, gesturing for me to sit.“Adrian,” I said, lowering myself to sit.I sat across from him, my hands clasped tightly in my lap, my eyes so tired from everything I hadn’t processed yet.He now watched me quietly and carefully, like he had been expecting me.“Bianca,” he said softly. “You don’t look well.”I let out a dry laugh.“Well that’s
LIAM.I didn’t even remember how I got to Kira’s house.One minute I drove out of the house and the next I landed here.I slammed my car door shut in front of Kira’s house, my chest rising and falling as I had just run a mile.I was furious and confused. I walked up to the door and knocked so hard.A few seconds later, the door opened and Kira stood there, startled at first. Then she looked concerned.“Liam?” She said. “What’s wrong?”I didn’t answer, I just walked in.She stepped aside immediately, closing the door behind me as I paced the living room like a man losing his mind.“Hey.. hey, what’s going on?” She asked, walking closer.I ran a hand through my hair, letting out a frustrated breath.“Bianca,” I muttered.Her expression shifted instantly.“What about her?” She raised a brow.I stopped pacing and turned to face her.“You won’t believe the kind of rubbish she just told me,” I said, my voice tight with anger.Kira frowned. “What do you mean?” She said.I laughed dryly.“She
BIANCA.Liam walked in gently and I stood up immediately, my body tense.His footsteps echoed softly as he walked in, loosening his tie, he looked really tired, and completely unaware.“Liam,” I called, my heart racing.“Yeah,” he replied, his voice low.He walked further into the room and paused when he saw me.Something in my face must have given it away.“What’s the matter?” He asked, his brows pulling together.I swallowed hard and everything in me felt tight.“We need to talk,” I said.He sighed lightly, dropping his keys on the table.“Can it wait? I’ve had a really long..” he said.“No,” I cut in before he could finish. “It really can’t,” I breathed loudly.He fixed a curious stare on me. And whatever he saw made him straighten slightly.“Okay..” he said slowly. “What is it?”My hands trembled slightly as I reached for the bag and pulled it closer.“I went into your father's study this morning as you asked me to,” I began.“And?” He asked, his expression changing immediately. “
BIANCA“He was your father,” he added.My breath stopped for a moment, and my hands trembled at my sides.Everything I saw was true. Nearly Everything I feared all through the ride here was becoming true.“He and Fredrick were best friends,” Dad continued. “Closer than brothers even. They built everything together, the businesses, the empire, everything.”My eyes widened as it burned with unshed tears.“Until it all fell apart,” he added.I leaned forward slightly, my eyes still widening.“What happened?” I asked sharply.Dad sighed. “There was a dispute,” he said. “A serious one. And business together soon turned into rivalry. They went to court and your father won.”My heart pounded faster.“And not long after..” he paused.“Your parents died in a car crash,” he finished.There was a deafening silence in the room.“No…” I whispered.“They both died on the spot,” he said gently. “Your biological mother too.”Tears spilled freely down my cheeks.“And me?” I sniffed, my voice barely ho
BIANCA.I saw Dad and Aunt Bertha on the bed, straddling.She was on top of him, her waist swinging in a way that made my stomach twist painfully.I let out a sharp gasp as she jumped off him, clutching the duvet tightly around her naked body in shame.The room fell heavy into a heavy silence as I looked at them.Aunt Bertha held the duvet tightly to her face as she couldn’t face me.I couldn’t move or even breathe, tears slipped down my face as my gaze fixed on them.Mom just died a few months ago and Dad was already banging her best friend.“Bianca..” Aunt Bertha’s voice trembled. “It’s not what you think please..” She let down the duvet a little above her naked breasts.“Bianca,” Dad called out softly.I turned and walked out in a daze. My vision blurred with tears as I stumbled down the hallway.I didn’t even know what I was crying for anymore.I didn’t know if it was for myself, my mom, or my biological parents.Or if it was for the life that now felt like a complete lie.I got d
BIANCA.I found the truth. It was my DNA results, very clear and undeniable.I saw the name, Ana Fernandez again, and I saw a picture of me.I stopped breathing for a moment, but I mustered some courage to keep looking.I saw a document for a trust fund of over a billion dollars in my name, my real name.And I then saw a marriage certificate, my eyes scanned through it quickly and I saw my real name written alongside Liam’s.My vision blurred. It was surely Fredrick, Fredrick had done all these. And maybe Liam was in on it too, but then he wouldn’t ask me to come clean up the study myself if he truly was.Fredrick had carefully and deliberately trapped me in this marriage just to hijack my inheritance. And he had hoped to keep this going for many years.I turned slowly, my gaze landing across the room, and my eyes stopped at the safe placed just somewhere at the far end of the room.My breath stopped again. If there was so much out here, who knew what could be lying in there, waiting
BIANCA.“Lucas,” he said flatly.Lucas turned slowly, that same calm smile still resting on his lips.“Liam,” he called gently.I could feel the tension between them instantly, it was thick and very suffocating.“What are you doing here?” Liam asked, his tone sharp.I blinked, taken aback by his co
BIANCAI slowed down instantly.“Yeah,” I heard Liam say quietly.There was a pause, then I heard, “What do you mean now? What about Bianca? What do I tell her?”My heart skipped again.I moved closer, stopping just before I fully came into view.“Okay I’ll be there,” he said quickly.There was ano
BIANCA.“What do you mean you can’t?” I asked, disbelief lacing my voice.He remained silent for a moment, as if he was being too careful not to say something.“I just.. I just can’t abandon her now,” he said softly.My heart broke.“Why?” I asked, tears gathering in my eyes. “What is so important
BIANCA.It was Kira, she stood near the wall, almost blending into the entire setting.A scarf was wrapped around her head, covering most of her hair, and a pair of dark sunglasses covered her eyes.But I knew it was her, I could tell at the first glance.My chest tightened, what the hell was she d
