ANNA'S POV

"That’s what I want us to talk about,” I said, my voice coming out low, almost trembling, but I kept my chin up.

“Did you bring this lady here to beg me to let you in?” My mother asked sharply, her words slicing through the air. “If that’s what you’re thinking, it’s not going to happen.” Her tone carried the same venom I’d grown up hearing, that sharp, cold voice that could make anyone feel small in an instant.

“Mom, please, just listen to me for once. This is way past any issues we have right now.” I said, clenching my fists tightly at my sides.

“I see you can’t take no for an answer,” Bella said, stepping forward, her arms folded across her chest. “Mom said not to set foot here ever again.”

I turned my head slowly toward her, my lips pressing together. Of course, she had to speak. She always did.

Before I could reply, the woman beside me spoke, her voice calm but edged with something strong. “How can you two say something like this?” she asked. “She came to you

  • Pregnant And Abandoned, I Returned As A Hidden Heiress   CHAPTER 070

    ISABEL'S POV “I am sure there might be bigger problems to worry about than that,” I said, forcing my tone to remain light. “No, that was my utmost worry. I thought there was a chance of this family breaking apart because of you,” my mom replied. My grip around my knife tightened almost instantly, the metal pressing hard against my fingers. Because of me? Was I always this way? No. I wasn’t. I knew that for a fact. I had given them everything — my obedience, my loyalty, my years. I was the daughter who followed rules, who never embarrassed them, who stood proudly beside them at every event. And yet, the moment Anna came back into this family, everything began shifting all at once. Their attention. Their concern. Their protection. And still, I was the one being blamed. Fine. Let’s see who would get blamed in a few hours. “I am sure you guys have somewhere really important to be, right?” I asked, lifting my gaze with a faint grin. My mom cleared her throat and reached for a nap

  • Pregnant And Abandoned, I Returned As A Hidden Heiress   CHAPTER 069

    ISABEL'S POV I stepped out of my room, quietly pulling the door shut behind me. The hallway was long and quiet, the soft carpet muffling my footsteps as I glanced both ways, hoping to spot a maid. Just in time, one appeared at the far end, walking toward me. But there was something odd, something that made me slow my steps without even realizing it. The maid was carrying a large bouquet of flowers. Not just any flowers — roses. Big, full, expensive-looking roses. I narrowed my eyes as she came closer. Why was she carrying flowers? And at this hour too. “You,” I said sharply. Her head snapped up in surprise before she quickly lowered it again. “Come here now.” She rushed over, stopping a few steps in front of me, her gaze fixed firmly on the floor as if it was the safest place to look. “Yes, ma’am,” she said softly. “Anna,” I said, folding my arms. “Has she left?” “Yes, ma’am,” the maid replied without hesitation. Finally. A small sense of satisfaction settled in my chest.

  • Pregnant And Abandoned, I Returned As A Hidden Heiress   CHAPTER 068

    ANNA'S POV “Yeah he did, but it was because I pressured him to tell me,” Ryan said. I let out a small sigh and pinched my temple lightly, my fingers pressing against my skin. If Dan told him this under pressure, then who knows how many other people he had told the same story to. Dan had never been good at keeping things to himself, especially when someone insisted long enough. The thought irritated me more than I cared to admit. “Well now that you already know my past, then I guess there’s no other thing keeping us from being friends,” I said, my tone carrying a touch of sarcasm. Ryan glanced at me briefly before returning his attention to the road. “I don’t want this to look forced, so if you don’t want to, or you’re not comfortable with it, then I understand,” he said calmly. I let out a small sigh and said “It’s fine.” He’s always been asking us to be friends but I’ve always been dodging that, like I told Dan the last time I didn’t want my distractions because I knew h

  • Pregnant And Abandoned, I Returned As A Hidden Heiress   CHAPTER 067

    ANNA'S POV I grabbed my bag and started walking down the stairs, my heels tapping lightly against the steps as my mind stayed fixed on the long day ahead of me. I was ready to head to the office and do exactly what I had set my mind to do. There was no room for distractions today, not from work, not from memories, and definitely not from James. I’ve only replied to James once, just once, and he was already asking if I could come over to his place. The audacity still annoyed me. Was he actually serious? It was like there was a stone lodged in his head, or maybe he was just plain stupid. How could he even think of asking something like that while he was still very much married? He had already told me that he wasn’t compatible with Melissa, and I am not trying to support Melissa after what she did to me, but at least he should have some respect for her. She’s a horrible person but she still has feelings, and inviting another woman into your home while your wife is still around is an

  • Pregnant And Abandoned, I Returned As A Hidden Heiress   CHAPTER 066

    ANNA'S POV“Shameless girl.”The woman’s voice cut through the air, sharp and full of disgust. It was deep, commanding, and painfully familiar.I turned my head, my eyes darting around in panic as I tried to locate where the voice was coming from. Everywhere looked distorted, like I was trapped behind a thick glass wall. Shapes blended together, faces were unclear, and the air itself felt heavy.“How dare you embarrass my son in front of his colleagues?” the voice came again, louder this time. “Don’t you have any dignity?”My heart dropped.I knew that voice.I knew it far too well.I tried to step back, to say something, anything, but my body refused to respond. My limbs felt weighed down, as if I was sinking into the ground. I struggled, but the more I tried to move, the heavier I became.Then I heard it.A child crying.The sound was faint at first, almost like an echo, but within seconds it grew louder, more desperate. The cry pierced straight through my chest, filling me with a s

  • Pregnant And Abandoned, I Returned As A Hidden Heiress   CHAPTER 065

    ISABEL'S POV And that was just one of the many plans I had installed for her. A small one, really. More like a test run before I finally set my real plan into motion. Anna had no idea what was coming for her, no idea how carefully I was moving my pieces across the board. People like her always believed things would keep working in their favor just because they were loved, just because they were wanted. But love was fragile. Trust even more so. The waiter finally brought my coffee and set it gently on the table in front of me after what felt like an unnecessary wait. “Took you long enough,” I said without looking up, my fingers already curling around the porcelain cup. “I’m sorry for the delay, ma’am,” he replied politely. “Would this be all?” “I’m waiting for someone, so no,” I said, taking a small sip of the coffee. It was warm, just how I liked it, bitter with no sugar. Perfect. He nodded and was about to walk away when the bell above the café door chimed softly. Right on t
