Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 80: Pre-wedding present
“ Stephanie Ross?!”The name reverberated in my ears. “ What is she doing here?” I spoke calmly, recognizing the glow of fear in her eyes. “ She wants to speak with you,” the maid replied, shakily. With the way her legs knocked around the knees, I suspected she wanted to bolt.“ Tell Miss Ross that I'll be with her in some minutes,” I replied after a brief pause, expecting her to zap the next second. She lingered. Unsure of what to say…or maybe, how to say it.“ It's alright. You can talk to me,” I spoke gently to her. Her eyes misted, turning into a gentle plea. “ If Mr. Lunar finds out she visited here again, I might end up in jail. Please…”“ I can't promise you that he won't find out, but when he does, I'll be ready to take responsibility,” I assured her.With that promise, I trudged downstairs moments later, weighing the possible reasons for her visit. Not too long after a brief exchange of casual pleasantries, she broke the ice.“ I'm begging you as a fellow lady. Please, h
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 79: She slept with her father
(Hazel)I sat across the hospital bed, where Roman laid. The extra bed in the room feels out of place. It wasn't here the last time I came, and the same applies to Diana.She clicks her tongue, staring down at me. Her eyes are colored with disdain, but beneath it was something I hadn't noticed before.Uncertainty. Anxiety. It feels like she has changed overnight...or maybe, I was too occupied to notice her inner struggle.“ Even when your wedding is a few days away, you traipse back to your ex. Oh, poor Hazel!”I humphed, letting my mind soar across the torn we have had in our relationship since childhood. “ I'm not here for him,” I stated, matter-of-factly. I had come for her. Hearing about her release, I knew she would be here.“ You and I aren't so different. He locked you up for separating Christian from me, yet here you are…trying to mend a relationship that was never meant to exist in the first place.”She scoffs, running her fingers on his still hand. “ Unlike you, I still hav
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 78: Bending the will
(Dominic)My wedding is in a week. Hazel's pregnancy is formed into a bump, constantly reminding me that the baby inside her isn't mine. And now, I have to deal with insubordination.“ I want a name,” I commanded, maintaining a calm demeanor, moments after breaking the pool stick. “ It's either you give it to me now, or I'll beat it out of you.”It took a critical assessment of the footage to notice that something was amiss. The record of my grandma in the house had been deleted. Wiped off the records in a way that would indicate a fault in the system. It wasn't that alone.So much more has been going on under my nose, and I hadn't noticed.“ Shall we begin?” I queried, head tilted to the side. He appeared unfazed, just like I expected. That is loyalty…to whomever he had sworn it to, but I know just how to break it. Or shall I say, who?“ Barn, get me Piper!”His eyes shot up at me, twitching. Horror shrouded his face in a way that made me smirk. “ The Piper effect,” I gloated inwa
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 77: Unmasking 1
" I can't talk. Your phone is bugged."Echoes that refused to fade from my mind. Words that made my knees knock against each other. I didn't expect Dominic would stoop so low.My phone?Has he been monitoring my calls?Every call I have ever made since my arrival at his home replayed in my ears like a recorded call. I beat it off my mind and straightened up.At 5.30pm, he strode in, and met me waiting on the cushion before the door." Sit, Dom."His eyebrows arched, riddled with surprise. Aloof and indifferent to his dazed look, and the tilt of his head which inadvertently reminded me of whose house I am, I motioned to my side and got up to my feet." Did you bug my phone?"Flat out straight to the point, my hollowed-out heart felt emptier than it has ever been." Why would I do that?"he countered." Well, maybe because, for some reasons, you have had me under watch, including having Cody check the camera room downstairs for my interactions with your mother. Don't you dare lie to me!"
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 76: Coming clean
I carried his response like a stillborn in my bosom, mourning on my way home. Dominic is so sure that I'm not a Sullivan. How's he going to react when he learns that I'm the true born child of the man who killed his father and kidnapped his brother? I and my sister, Diana.The man whom he has loathed his entire life!How can fate be this cruel to me? What wrong did I ever do? What's my crime?Piper's words echoed again in my ears. “ He never wanted girls. He had bragged about how his first child would be a male. So, when you both came, he couldn't stand it. He gave you both away to his secretary at the time.”“He gave me away.”“He gave us away.”That was all I could think of. Even my birth father didn't want me. My birth mother couldn't stop him either. I chuckled, letting my tears run down in streams. “ It's unfair how everything turns out well for some, and is a labyrinth of disaster to others.”Thinking back to my childhood, my paternal ties stabbed my heart again. At least, Dia
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 75: Why he wants her to have the Sullivan company
Dusk has set, yet I haven't taken my heart off the incident. Wrapped in his arms in bed, I coughed to draw his attention.“ What would you do if I were a Sullivan?” I quizzed, listening to the beat of his heart.His breathing paused, and his heartbeat accelerated. My stomach twists. My heart lurches. Hot tears burn my iris. The silence widening like a gulf, determined to pull us apart from each other.I have my answer, but I can't seem to accept this reality.A second chance at love. I couldn't throw it all away over an assumption.“ You're not,” he deadpanned, his hands tightening around my stomach. It feels foreign, bereft of warmth and comfort.A sickly feeling permeates my membranes. Sitting in his arms, knowing that if the outcome was different, I wouldn't be here, changes it all.No more butterflies in the belly, or so much as a toe-curling romance. More or less, roommates.“ Take your mind off it. You can't possibly be. I have made inquiries…”It fell on my ears with a deafenin
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 32: I don't have a date for tonight
"Hazel," he gasped, weathered. She snapped. " You know each other?"I struggle to cheer up, and pretend I hadn't seen that scene, but it splashes across my face, in letters bright and blinding." Uhmm. He rented an apartment, and coincidentally, we were neighbors..." I pressed my lips close, leavin
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 31: Confrontation and sour secret
" I'm fine..." I said, and scribbled my signature. He combed back his hair and grunted." Honestly, I am. I shouldn't have said that knowing we had just lost Kelvin."Tears sting my eyes. I dropped the pen, turned and folded my hands. " Tell me, Roman. Do you really think Diana had the twins?"" Ha
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 30: I didn't mean to hurt you
It took ages for me to process everything Piper told me. It felt unreal. I held the phone quizzing myself if he knew. If he knows that his brother has been lying in the coffin meant for my supposed dead husband, all this time. How much more does he know, and how much is still a secret?I had taken
Reclaiming What's Mine Chapter 29: He came prepared
Time froze. My lips hung low, parted. My palms are sweaty. My heart aches.He's my son after all. The child I can not face yet.Between a fiery glare from Diana, and a lopsided grin from Roman, my feet nailed to the ground.I'm not prepared for this.It's not about Roman or Diana. It's because of
