It was easy to find the person Blair had hired to find out what I had been up to for the five years I disappeared.

I had to admit that I was impressed with the move. She had hired the best private investigator. It was no surprise he was able to dig as far as he did but his findings would end there.

We had no choice but to contact Grandma that someone was poking around and she promised to take care of him.

She promised me that she wouldn't do anything to hurt him and I trusted her because Grandma was a woman of her word.

“Found anything yet?” I asked Shiro, leaning over his shoulders to peer at the laptop screen.

Shiro, Ria and I were huddled together in my office, collecting evidence to teach Blair and Valentina a lesson.

I made a promise to them and I intend to fulfil it. I wanted Blair to know that I wouldn't sit still if she tried to pull any moves.

This was my game now. I was the only one allowed to make any move. They just had to stand still and bear the wrath of my anger.

  • REVENGE and TEMPTATIONS    Epilogue

    Three Years Later:I checked my appearance for the nth time. I was nervous, but I was also excited because today was my baby's first recital.I can’t believe three years have passed since everything happened. My life has been so happy. I can’t ever remember it’s signing my life when I felt this much peace for such a long time.I had nothing to worry about; I was surrounded by people who loved me and supported me. It was insane that I had a life that was so perfect.My phone began ringing, and he picked it up from the table in front of me."Obaasan,” I cried out happily as soon as he answered the call. “I was just going to call you.” I said it with a smile in my voice.“I’m sure you were,” she teased. Ever since I promised to call her one day and I forgot to do so, she never believed me. I told her I wanted to call her.“I promise. I was going to call you because I wanted to talk to you before we left the house,” I said with a pout.“You haven’t left yet?” She questioned me with an acc

    “I’ll wait for you by the car." Divine pressed the kiss to my forehead and walked back to the car while I made my way into the cemetery.I haven’t been here since dad was buried, and it was weird, to say the least. I missed him a lot, and I was sorry that I had never visited since the six years he had been here.Maybe I was ashamed because of the hate I felt towards him in the four years that followed his death.It didn’t take long for me to reach this spot where he was buried. Words could not describe the emotions that were flowing through me as I placed the flower on the grave.“Hi dad,” I whispered, and I took a seat on the grass beside his grave. Thankfully, Shiro had paid someone to always make sure that the grave was always clean and well taken care of, so there were no overgrown grasses or thorns on the bed.“I’m sorry I haven’t visited in a very long time. I was very angry because of the misunderstanding caused by Sabrina. I’m sure you must have been lonely.” I’m also cute, wh

    I groaned as my eyes opened groggily. The first thing I noticed was that I was no longer in the hospital room.I lurched forward in shock, but my body was dragged back with a force that caused me to look down. I was tied to a chair, and the movement has caused pain to travel up my healing hand.Blood trickled down the bandaged hand, meaning I must have hurt it while trying to move. I winced as the pain from the hand increased.“Can I get a fucking break? I was just shot and now kidnapped.” I cursed and looked to the ceiling, but there was nothing to look at.The roof was falling, and I doubt it would hold if a storm were to happen.“And an abandoned warehouse too,” I scoffed when I took in my surroundings. Judging from the look of this place, I’m sure no one has been here in years.“Aren’t you going to come out, Sabrina?” I called when no one would step forward or speak to me.I wasn’t stupid. I could feel eyes on me, so I knew she and whoever helped her bring me here were in the shad

    I could hear the loud beeping, but my eyes wouldn’t open, so I couldn't see where I was. One thing was certain, though. I wasn’t in bed with Davian, as the bed was too hard and the sheets over me weren’t familiar.“Maliah?” I heard Davian whisper. It sounded like he was so close yet so far, and I tried to pry my eyes open, but it wouldn’t budge.“Are you awake? Can you hear me?” He asked again, but this time his voice was more desperate.I was also desperate to open my eyes so I could see the family grey eyes I fell in love with, but my body seemed to have forgotten how to function.“Can you twitch your hands for me, love, if you can hear me? Please, baby,” he pleaded, and I tried my best to move any part of my body.I hated that tone on him. I didn’t like how desperate and almost close to tears he was. My brain wasn’t functioning well, and I was having a hard time figuring out why I was here, unable to open my eyes or move, or even what had happened earlier.“She moved her fingers,”

    The pain never came as I closed my eyes and waited for it. What came instead was Blair’s cry of pain, and I heard the gun clatter to the ground.I opened my eyes, and a strangled gasp escaped me when I saw the familiar custom-made tanto embedded in her hand, which had been holding the gun earlier.Blair’s other hand held the hand that was now bleeding profusely as she cried out in pain.My eyes snapped to the door to find my Oniichan standing there with a glare in his eyes and the sheath of his tanto in his hands.“What the fuck?” Blair screamed in pain.Shiro walked over to me and began to search for any signs of injuries.“I’m fine, Oniichan. Nothing happened. You came on time,” I muttered shakily.We looked behind me to see the spot where the bullet had been embedded.“We need to get that out of her hand before she loses too much blood and call the police too,” I told him.I winced as I looked at Blair again. The floor now had her blood as she cried.“What? Are you crazy?” Shiro hi

    I stilled at the question, and a cold crept up my spine. My head snapped to the back, and I gasped in fear to see Blair at my back. How did she get in?I said nothing to her at first. I wasn’t going to confront her in front of my babies, so I turned back to them with the most genuine smile I could muster.“Mummy, who is she? Is she a bad person?” Keita asked, his brows in a frown as he kept watching her from the end of the screen.“Keita, why don’t you keep your siblings company? I have to attend to my guest, and I’ll call you back as soon as I finish here, okay? Maybe Dad will be back by then, and you can talk to him too. Is that a good deal?” I proposed, knowing they might protest a bit.“Okay?” He answered with uncertainty, still not taking his eyes off Blair. “Will you be fine, Mom?” He asked again, and I nodded.“Of course, I’ll be fine. I know her,” I said, but they looked like they didn’t believe me. Just like the twins, though, Little Ro had a curious expression on his face as
