Ria looked at the table again. Everything was ready. The food was set neatly. She had cooked Adrian’s favorite dishes. The smell still filled the room, but the warmth was slowly fading. She had even used the special plates Adrian bought, saying they are his sister's favorite. Ria wanted tonight to turn out well.She had cooked different dishes—rice, soup, meat, vegetables. Everything looked perfect. She rubbed her sore fingers, still bandaged, but she didn’t mind.She glanced at the clock. It was almost 8 p.m.Her heart began to beat faster. She walked to the window and looked outside, hoping to see Adrian’s car, but the street was quiet. There was no sign of anyone coming.Her mind drifted back to the moment Adrian left. That sudden call he picked before storming out of the house. He didn’t say where he was going. He didn’t even say when he’d be back. She had thought maybe he went to get something, maybe it was urgent. But now, she doesn't know anymore.She looked at the clock again.

Betty's eyes widened as she stared at both Adrian and Olivia curled up in each other's arms."If she's… your Cinderella—then, who's… your wife?” Betty dragged the question as she was still confused.“Ahem, ahem,” Charles cleared his throat awkwardly, trying to redirect her attention “Betty, you need to rest.”“No Dad, I'm perfectly fine.” She said, shaking her head. “I need to understand what's going on.”She turned to Adrian, her eyes searching his face. “Brother why aren't you saying anything? Why are you not married to your Cinderella?”“Betty—”“No,” Betty said, cutting him off sharply. “If you're going to tell me to rest just like Father, then just don't.”Adrian sighed deeply.“Betty, please listen to your father and brother, they mean well.” Olivia said gently. “And they are right, you just recovered, there's still time for you to know everything that transpired.”Betty wanted to insist that she was fine but she bit her lips instead, holding back the words. She could be stubbor

“What did you just say?” Charles asked in shock, staring at Gerald like he hadn’t heard him right.Gerald held the phone carefully in his hand. “The person on the call… she’s the one who helped your daughter when she collapsed,” he repeated.Charles blinked, trying to wrap his head around what he had just heard.. His eyes shifted from Gerald to the glass door of the hospital room where Betty was lying on the bed, smiling and chatting with Olivia.He raised a brow. “Are you sure about what you're saying?” he asked, still not wanting to get his hopes high.“Yes, sir. She was there with her until the ambulance arrived. She told me she wanted to follow up, but she had some things to take care of. She just called now,” Gerald explained.Charles didn’t say another word. He stretched out his hand for the phone. “Give me the phone.”Gerald quickly took the call off hold and brought it to his ear. “Hello, ma’am. I’m handing you over to her father now,” he said and passed the phone to Charles.

Ria, who had only meant to rest for a short while, was jolted awake by the sudden buzz from her phone. She hadn’t planned to sleep for long, but somehow, the tiredness had taken over her body.Still half-asleep, she yawned and stretched, then slowly reached out to grab her phone from the bedside. Taking a peek at her phone she was shocked to discover that her sweet little nap had turned into a long one as it was already past seven in the morning."Oh dear Lord" she sighed as she clicked open the notification that had appeared on her screen.Her eyes widened a little when she saw the message on the screen. It was from Adrian.“I’m on my way home with some familiar guests. Prepare breakfast and a nice bowl of healthy soup… Do not disappoint me,”Ria blinked, staring long at the message. A bowl of healthy soup? Is Adrian sick? Or is he coming home with a sick person?A sudden wave of panic rushed through her as she realized Adrian hadn’t returned home last night, and she hadn’t even not

The ride to Adrian's house was loud as well as annoying to Charles as every word that came out of Olivia's mouth made Charles angrier than the last.They soon arrived at Adrian's house and Charles asked Adrian to wait behind in the car, he had something to discuss with him. He told Olivia and Betty to go ahead and they would join them soon.Betty who was still filled with joy, linked her arms with Olivia's and practically dragged her out of the car. Olivia barely had the chance to glance at Adrian before the door was shut. She felt uneasy and wondered what Charles wanted to tell Adrian. She hoped he wasn't about to change Adrian's mind before she even got the chance to carry out her plans.Betty tugged her forward, drawing her out of her thoughts. Olivia plastered a smile on her face. Whatever card Charles had to play, at least she still had Betty on her side. Now she needs to make sure Betty keeps seeing her as her lifesaver and keeps feeling she's indebted to her.Olivia momentarily

Adrian, where's my room? You know I need the best room with the best view. Betty spoke up happily as she finished eating her breakfast, her voice laced with excitement."Ria will take you to your room," Adrian replied, still focused on his meal without looking up.Betty's happy mood died down immediately. Her face twisted in displeasure."I don't need her help finding my way in my brother's house. She should focus on clearing the dishes.""She's your brother's wife and not a slave Betty," Charles' voice rang out, firm and disapproving.Betty's eyes flared in defiance. "I already said I won't accept her but since she desperately wants to be here, then she needs to make herself useful."Without waiting for another word, she turned to Adrian with narrowed eyes. "What about Olivia?"Adrian raised his head and looked at Olivia, then back at Betty. "What about her?""She will be staying in your room right?"Ria choked on the food she was eating. Coughing uncontrollably till tears welled in

Chapter 62There was a soft, gentle knock on Adrian's study door.“Come in,” Adrian said without looking up. His voice was low and his eyes were fixed on the folder in front of him.Olivia slowly opened the door and walked in, her steps were soft and graceful like always. The scent of her peppermint perfume drifted through the air making Adrian who recognized that scent look up as she approached.He was surprised to see her, his expression softened a little."I'm sorry about my father's behavior earlier," he said, his voice, soothingly calm.Olivia gave him a soft, small smile. "You don’t have to apologize, I’m not upset.”She paused for a moment before continuing, “Uhm…I hope I’m not disturbing you?” she sweetly asked, smiling.“No. It’s fine,” Adrian replied, closing the folder. “Is something wrong?”Olivia shook her head gently, walking closer to his desk. “No, no, not at all. I just wanted to let you know I’ll be going to get my things from home now.”Adrian gave her a slight nod,

"Father," Adrian called, drawing Charles' attention from Olivia, back to Ria.“The car is ready,” Adrian quickly leaned down and picked up Ria. To his greatest surprise, he realized despite being pregnant, she was so lean and felt so light in his arms. He carefully and hurriedly carried her to the car with Charles trailing behind.The ride to the hospital was silent but Adrian could feel Charles' burning gaze hovering on his skin.Adrian had already informed the hospital they were coming as this was the Blake's private hospital so there were nurses and a stretcher waiting outside as soon as they arrived.Ria was immediately transferred onto the stretcher and was taken into the emergency ward. He and Charles followed closely as she was rushed into the emergency ward, but they were stopped few meters away from the door by the nurses.Charles and Adrian stood outside. Adrian paced the corridor restlessly as he was waiting for the doctor's report, while Charles threw death stares his way

Betty glanced around but couldn't see the lady. She sighed, her brows furrowing slightly in confusion. She slowly walked back to the shopping mall with a puzzled expression. She couldn't understand what the woman had said.A pregnant woman? That's odd.After a brief pause, Betty shrugged it off, convincing herself that maybe the woman had simply mistaken her for someone else. “Yes, that could be the only explanation that makes sense,” she muttered to herself.Shaking her head lightly, she picked up the few things she had selected and paid for them and quietly headed home.***Adrian walked into the house, slamming the door behind him. His face was tense, and angry—like someone or something had pissed him off. His steps were loud as he stormed into the house.Ria, who was just coming out from Charles' room, looked up and saw him. She quickly walked up to him, oblivious of his mood.“Adrian…” she said softly. “I wanted to ask you about something. Please, do you have an idea when the in

As the footstep drew closer to the door, Olivia's eyes darted around, her heart pounding as she looked for where to hide.She saw the doorknob twist and without waiting further she ran to the door and quickly hid, leaning against the wall, her heart pounding loudly in her chest as she took in a deep breath, shutting her eyes.Ria, opened the door and walked in. She stood at the doorway confused, her eyes darting around the room. Her brows furrowed."I don't remember shutting this door behind me when I left," she said to herself.She shrugged. "Well, maybe I did," she walked into the room towards Charles' bed, leaving the door open.Ria placed the tray of food she carried on the bedside table and turned to Charles. "Oh no you have soiled yourself." Ria said as she saw the wet covers on Charles."What do I do now? Adrian isn't around and you need a change of clothes," Ria asked, biting her lips as she fidgets.Olivia took advantage of Ria being distracted and slid out from behind the o

“Rise and Shine Mr Charles,” Ria said, smiling as she drew the curtains open. The rays of the morning sun reflected into the room, making Charles blink.Ria turned to look at him and smiled. “I know, I know... you don’t like the early morning sun.But just a little morning light is good for you. Don’t worry, I’ll close it back soon.”“I thought you might enjoy some sunlight today,” she added, glancing at him. “It’s a beautiful day outside. Not too hot, not too cold. Just the kind you used to say was perfect for gardening.”Ria walked to his bedside, adjusting the blanket covering his body. “Hope you had a good night's rest? Your grandchild said I should ask you that.” Ria chuckled, trying to crack a joke.She picked up two pillows, fluffed it up a bit and adjusted it on his back, making Charles sit up. Then she moved about the room—tidying a few things, picking up a glass cup from the bedside table, and arranging the few books on the shelf.“You know your grandchild didn't let me sleep

Ria blinked, clearly not expecting the question. She slowly turned her eyes to Adrian, expecting him to speak up for her. But Adrian didn’t say anything. He didn’t even look at her. His face was void of any expression. He just kept his eyes on his plate, cutting his meat like he hadn’t heard anything.Ria’s throat felt dry from Adrian's silent dismissal. She swallowed before answering. “I… I was upstairs in Adrian's room"" Doing what?" Betty eyed her" Well.. well I was with Adrian on his bed.” she said in a low voice.The moment those words came out, Olivia, who had just taken a spoonful of rice, suddenly started coughing. She dropped her spoon and covered her mouth, choking on the food. Her face turned slightly red, her eyes tearing up as she struggled to breathe.Betty quickly reached for the glass of water near her and handed it to Olivia. “Easy now,” she said. “Drink water.”Olivia grabbed the glass with shaky hands and took a large gulp. She wiped her lips gently with the back

The room went silent as all heads slowly turned, following Charles' gaze.Olivia?She stood there, frozen for a moment like she didn’t expect to be looked at. Her eyes moved from one person to the other, confused by their stares.Why are they are staring at me? Olivia pondered, blinking.‘They don't know anything yet.’ She reminded herself, getting rid of the fear that had enveloped her heart and forced out an innocent smile as she approached them.Still, her chest felt tight. Her hands were starting to sweat.Why won’t he stop looking and twitching at me?“Oh my God, Mr Blake, you are back.” Olivia screamed, her voice dripping of excitement, as if she was very happy to see him. “We were all scared and worried.” she continued, her voice dropping a bit low in sadness. “I… I didn’t even know he was strong enough to return home.” She muttered, staring at Adrian and then back at Charles. “But thank God, it's good to see you home.” she smiled sweetly.Charles’ eyes didn’t leave her. They t

Olivia, stood stunned, as her gaze couldn't leave Charles. Her stomach twisted. No… No, no, this can’t be happening.He’s alive? How… how is that possible? She thought, wondering.Did he tell Adrian anything? Did he say I was the one who pushed him?Olivia shut her eyes for a moment, trying to calm her thoughts.Damn it. Why didn’t he die?Adrian pushed the wheelchair towards the entrance of the house but Charles' gaze still remained fixed on Olivia until he was completely out of sight.Olivia blinked, jolting back to reality. She shook her head quickly, as if trying to push away the fear that had crept up her spine. She swallowed hard as she backed away from the window, her hands turning cold. Taking a slow deep breath, Olivia slowly made her way to the living room, her mind racing.But how's he alive?Hope he hasn't revealed all her secrets to Adrian.?Has her cover been blown? Shit! This might be the end of her.Dread filled her heart as she quietly approached the living room.

Olivia was getting impatient and frustrated.She had been trying to convince them for a while now. Every time she suggested they go to the hospital, Ria, would said no. And worse, Betty kept listening to her.Olivia stood by the side, arms crossed as she watched Betty cry and snifle in Ria's arms like a child who had lost the world.Olivia rolled her eyes as she pondered on what to do next to convince this two idiots to head to the hospital. And it's not as if she could go alone without drawing suspicions to herself.Worse still, she couldn't find the recording pen. Did that old man still hold onto it even while dying? Olivia thought. She felt uneasy at the possibility of her cover being blown too early.She decided to try one more time. “How long are we going to sit here?” Olivia asked irritated. “Your father is at the hospital, and Adrian might need help. We should go there.”Ria glanced up at her. “Adrian asked us to stay. Let’s respect that.”Betty sniffled loudly. “Ria’s right...

Betty slumped on the cold floor after Adrian and her father left for the hospital. Her hands covered her face and her shoulders shook as she cried loudly, her voice, echoing in the quiet room.Ria knelt beside her, gently rubbing her back and whispering soothing words.“Betty, please… calm down, he’s going to be okay. Adrian’s taking care of him. I'm sure Adrian and the doctors will do everything they can to make sure that Mr Charles gets better.” Ria said, trying to comfort her, but nothing that Ria said seemed to help.But Betty just cried harder, shaking her head. “He… he just dropped! Right there… I don't know if he would be able to survive that fall, his body is already getting old.”“Let's be positive Betty, Mr. Charles will survive. He might look old, but he's very strong.”Then, out of nowhere, Olivia came rushing down the stairs. Her eyes were wide, and her voice was loud and filled with urgency.“What’s going on down here? I heard someone screaming.” Her brows furrowed as s

Olivia watched from the creek of Adrian's bedroom door as Adrian slowly made his way towards Ria, handing her the juice he had taken pride in making and then hovering over her.Every move was slow and deliberate , she tried to make out the words he was saying to Ria as his voice was too low, too soft to listen to almost like he was whispering. Her chest tightened, as confusion and jealousy settled in her heart.What was going on? What was he doing? Was this part of his father's threat? Olivia thought to herself as she watched Ria and Adrian speak to one another. Her nails dug into the wood of the doorframe. "Ahem" The sound made her soul leave her body as she turned around abruptly, her heart pounding in her chest, only to find Charles staring back at her with anger burning through his eyes"You're… you're back... Welcome" she stammered, trying to swallow the lump that had formed in her throat. "Hmmm" "Sir, it's not what you think. I can explain" she added quickly, trying to kee
