“Pregnant?” I let out a chuckle, despite the dread curling in the depths of my stomach. “You think I'd get married to a man as spineless as Chaise? Only you would do that kind of thing.”

It was a lie. This baby was one I prayed for. I thought if I just gave him a child, he would finally see me but I was just being naive.

“Oh so now he’s spinless? Does it hurt that he’s standing up for me?” She smirked. “He hasn’t seen you home in days and he doesn’t even care. Isn't it time you give up?”

    Lily“What does that mean?” Grandma was the first to react. I stood beside her, too bewildered to speak. Everyone knew it was my herbal recipe that improved Grandma's health when modern medicine was failing. How did it suddenly become Rachelle?“I told you to let it be, Chaise. There's no need to bring it up. I’m very fine with Lily taking all the credit,” Rachelle pretended to whisper, while making sure every single person in the room could hear it. “No!” Chaise said stubbornly, shooting me a disappointed look. “It's not right everyone paints you as the villain when all you've done is help my family in the best way you can.”I was too stunned to speak. What are they even talking about?Chaise moved straight to his explanation. “Grandma, you’re right to believe that Lily treated you. I believed that too, until Rachelle showed me proof that Lily merely stole her work.”I stole her work?Grandma simply stared at him. “Let me guess, that’s another lie she told you?”“It is not a lie, g

    LilyChaise looked like he’d been slapped across the face. He moved Rachelle out of the way and stepped towards me with a look I couldn't quite decipher. My stomach curled tightly but I willed myself not to move.“What did you just say?” His voice was low and murderous. I stared back at him with the same fire, irritated that he was acting like this was all new to him. Didn't he send me the divorce papers himself? Or was he expecting me to refuse signing it and beg?“You heard me, Chaise. Rachelle is pure and harmless. She's better than me in every way and the only woman worthy of you. I've kept you away from each other for so long, so I've decided to let true love have its course,” I shrugged.He grabbed my arm, anger flashing in those beautiful blue eyes, “Do you even know what you’re saying? It’s been three years, Lily. Three whole years and now you want to throw that all away?”My heart ached from hearing him say those words. Hearing him say something like this, you’d think he cher

    LilyMy ears perked up on hearing that and I slowly moved my head from the glass to look at him. His eyes locked with mine. Did he really apologise to me? Or was I so desperate for an apology that I started imagining things?“What?” My question was overshadowed by the horn beside us. Chaise sighed.“Let’s talk when we get home,” he told me. I nodded and turned back to the window. My chest felt heavy. There was nothing more to talk about, except him signing the papers. The further I get away from him, the better things would be. Five minutes later, we arrived at the mansion that used to be my home. It felt different now. Like one of those random buildings you see everyday. I never thought one day I would feel so detached from this place. I was lost in thoughts for a second and didn’t notice that Chaise hadn't walked in. He was just standing by the side of the car, watching me. “If you miss it so much why run off?” He finally said, drawing my attention. He took my hand before I cou

    Lily“What papers?” He asked and I shot him a glare. “The di…”“Sir, ma’am, if you may,” a man in a security uniform suddenly interrupted. Our faces turned to him and he gave a polite bow. “You’re in front of the cafe. Our customers might think you’re causing trouble.”“Sorry about that,” Chaise apologized sincerely. “My wife is having a moodswing. We'll be on our way.”I offered the man a sugary smile even though I badly wanted to punch this asshole in the face. He pulled me along with him.“Hey! Where are you taking me? What about grandma?” I questioned as we reached the Mercedes. The guards will bring her back!” he answered, shoving me inside the car. “The doors locked immediately and I cursed him aloud. Why was he doing this to me? He never wanted me in his space and now I was doing just that, he was forcing me?He opened the door and got in the driver’s seat. “Hey! Let me out! I have an important meeting with someone!” I hit him repeatedly in the arm but he paid no attention t

    LilyI turned around to see the one person I never thought I would see so soon. Chaise’s grandmother was standing there in her usual simple yet elegant style. I stood up quickly, hurrying to her with a bright smile.“Grandma!” I threw my hands around her without caring that we were in public. I noticed that she’d put on some weight and her grip was a lot stronger now. My eyes watered. The last time she held me, her hands were barely able to make contact because they were trembling badly. “I’m so happy to see you,” I pulled away with a smile. “My table is over there, come sit with me, please?”She nodded, but there was this sadness in her soft blue eyes. I helped her to my table and pulled a seat for her. I glanced around, hoping to catch sight of her bodyguards. I didn’t want to believe she came alone in her condition, even if she didn’t like the men following her around. “What are you doing here, grandma? When did you get back?” I asked. “Two days ago,” she responded with a smile

Isn't it time you give up?”“I have already given up on him,” I smiled bitterly. “You can go ahead and keep him as much as you like.” Using Ri’s hand for support, I managed to stand on my feet. Rachelle stared closely at me. I almost panicked for a second, thinking she could see through my act. Another wave of dizziness hit me but I tightened my grip on Ri’s hand, refusing to sway. “You're a very terrible liar, Lily. You spent years trying to get Chaise to notice you and even more, trying to win his love. You really expec
