Chapter 55: The True Deserving

Samantha POV………

“I didn’t want to say this, but I have to,” Adrian’s wife sniffed like she was being maltreated.

I glared at her like my eyes could kill. Always acting.

She cleared her throat, ready to speak again. I wondered what she wanted to say this time around, the lie she wanted to come up with.

They are bound in a contract marriage.”She said it, and her words rang in my ears like a stray bullet.My heart scattered into so many unconscious pieces as I stared at her in shock.How did she come to know about that? We never discussed it with her.I turned to Adrian. He had the same shock on his face, and his eyes asked the same question mine did.“How…” he stuttered, failing.“Adrian, am I lying? Why don’t you tell your father the truth? The truth that you and Samantha…”She paused and gave me a long stare.“…you and Samantha are not legally married.”“What the hell is going on here? Adria

    Chapter 54: The Grand RevealValeria POV…Since he still thinks nicely of me, I think this is the best time to reveal myself to him and tell him what is really going on between Adrian and Samantha.A smirk crossed my lips as I took my first step down the stairs, ready to cause further chaos.I have always waited for an opportunity like this, and now I have one staring right at me.I won’t let it slide.My heels I hadn’t taken off clicked against the floor as I took steady steps down the stairs.I needed to make a grand entrance.I increased my pace, and my heels clicked louder.And soon, just as I expected, everyone turned toward the stairs, ready to see who was making such bold moves.I swayed my body gently, letting my confidence shine through.“It’s Miss Valeria. I thought she was hiding from Mr. Wolfe,” a maid standing not too far from me whispered to another.She looked up, and her eyes widened in shock. I guess she never thought I was that close to her already.“Ma...” she stutt

The drop of a needle could be heard and the weight of shock lingered in the air.I turned slowly to Adrian, trying to understand the weight of what had just happened.Before my eyes could reach him, they landed on some maids. Their hands were over their mouths and their eyes were wide in horror.My suspense grew.I turned to Adrian sharply, my eyes asking so many questions that got answered the moment I saw his hands on his checks.His eyes were widened in shock. His body dropped slightly, his shoulders once lifted in ego and anger now humiliated and brought down to their lowest form.“What have you done?” I turned to Mr. Wolfe, pain surging though my chest.

    Chapter 52: The day everything brokeSamantha POV…..I watched as his eyes quickly narrowed to my stomach. My heart hardened already knowing what that meant.“So it’s true?”He didn’t let me respond before slicing a slap across my cheeks.“How dare you and Adrian fool the entire family, huh?” He held me by my shirt and sliced another slap across my face. “You cheap, impudent woman. What more can you do, huh?”The shock I carried in my heart made it impossible for me to move my lips. My lips felt heavy and sealed. It felt as if they were glued together with the strongest glue.Slowly, I lifted my head in shame and it dawned on me.We were surrounded by the maids, and by the front of her door stood Adrian’s wife, watching with a bright smile sitting at the corner of her lips.My mind screamed, she’s responsible for this.I gulped hard, trying to bury the pain and humiliation burning through me.“Who are you exactly and why did you agree to do this madness, huh? Are you that desperate to

    Chapter 51: Behind the CobwebsSamantha POV……I rushed toward it. Picking it up, I returned to the door.“Time to go in,” I mumbled to myself as I took my first steps into the room.My legs shook as I finally stepped inside. It was even scarier than I had imagined, totally dark walls, creepy ornaments, black calabashes, and everything that could make anyone’s skin crawl.I wanted to run back. I wanted to get the fuck out of this room. But something inside me pushed harder. It drove me forward.“YOU CAN DO THIS,” I muttered, holding my panting chest as I forced myself to continue.Clearing away every cobweb that blocked my path, I moved deeper into the room.Closer and closer until I find myself standing right in front of the big portrait.I pushed the stick to it, clearing off the cobwebs hiding its face from the world. “Mom, I miss you,” I read out.Mom? A puzzled look stretched across my face.“Mom?” I repeated, pulling closer. The name under the picture displayed clearly: MRS. AGAT

    Chapter 49: Anything to save myself Mrs Wolfe POV………“Why is your face so long? Anything bothering you?” Wolfe placed his hands on my shoulders, his face igniting with worry.A sly smile came across my lips, one perfectly hidden from him.That was exactly what I wanted. His concern, and I had gotten just that.I pulled my lips into a wider pout. It stretched so hard that it seemed like my lips would fall off any second now.“What is it, babe? I am really worried now. You know I don’t like seeing you sad.”This time he sat next to me, pulling me closer to himself.“I really didn’t want to say this to you. I wanted to keep it to myself, but it has been bothering me for so long that I can’t keep it to myself anymore.”I enjoyed the way his curiosity piqued and the way he leaned closer, ready for me to spill everything.“Are you really ready for this?”I pulled out another sad look like I didn’t want to say my next words and like I hadn’t been dying to say it to him.“Of course, babe.
