THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER SIXTY NINE
ALIRA’S POV“Do you feel better now Alira??" Iris asked."Yes Iris.” I said as I sat at the edge of the bed, slowly putting on my shoes, my fingers trembling just a little not from weakness… but from everything that had happened.From everything I had almost lost.“Be careful.”The doctor’s voice echoed again in my head.“Iris, please can you get me a can of soda from the machine in the hallway??" I asked as I tried to get Iris out of the room because of the doctor.“Sure." She said as she walked away.I looked up at him where he stood by the window with his arms folded, eyes fixed on me with a seriousness that made my chest tighten."She doesn't know??" He asked.“No…not yet.”“I mean what I said, Alira,” he said firmly. “This is not the time to be reckless…not anymore.”I exhaled slowly.“I wasn’t being reckless,” I muttered.“You were attacked in your own company..Something was thrown directly at your stomach.” His voice lowered slightly. “That is not a coincidence.”“I know.”“A
THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT
ALIRA’S POVDarkness came first..then voices and then memory.Not the kind that arrived gently.The kind that dragged me by the throat back into a moment I had spent every waking day trying not to relive.In the dream, I was back in that house.The old staircase stood before me exactly as I remembered it…wide, polished, elegant, and cursed.Every detail looked painfully real.Then Alec’s voice behind me was sharp and angry.“Stop acting like a maniac and tell me what you heard!! Alira…please listen to me!! I swear I didn't mean to hurt you….Alira?? Alira??” I turned in the dream exactly as I had done that day in my previous life.His face was blurry at first, then clearer.The same face I had once loved enough to die for.The words were unclear now, swallowed by dream haze, but the feeling remained vivid..the anger, the betrayal, the exhaustion.Then I turned toward the stairs.A hand behind me.A sudden force.A shove.My body lurched forward.The terrifying emptiness beneath my fee
THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN
ALIRA’S POVMorning arrived with a dull ache behind my eyes and a stronger ache inside my thoughts.For a few seconds after opening my eyes, I forgot Alec was still in my house then I heard movement from the living room as I sat up immediately.The memories of last night returned one after another: his drunken answers, his careless laughter, his body collapsing across my couch while I stood there wondering whether I had learned anything useful at all.I wrapped a robe around myself and stepped out of the room.Alec was already awake.He stood near the couch, one hand pressed to his forehead, the other adjusting his shirt like a man trying to gather his dignity after a bad night.When he saw me, he sat up straight.“Morning.”His voice sounded rough and I folded my arms.“You look terrible.” I said as he gave a tired smile.“I feel worse.”His eyes moved briefly around the room, perhaps trying to remember exactly how the night had ended.Then he cleared his throat.“I should leave.”“S
THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER SIXTY SIX
ALIRA’S POVBy the time I returned home from the hospital, my head felt heavier than my body.The doctor’s words refused to leave me.“The hero in your previous life may become the villain in this one.”That single sentence had followed me all the way home like a shadow.I dropped my handbag on the table and stood still in the middle of the living room, staring at nothing.If I wanted to survive, then I could not afford blind revenge.I needed certainty and needed proof and proof could only come from testing the people around me one after another.Alec was the first name that came into my mind.Not because I trusted him but because he had once stood beside my death wearing concern like borrowed clothing.If he had returned too, then somewhere beneath that calm face would be cracks.And tonight, I intended to find them.The first thing I did was send him a message.“Come over tonight…I cooked.”His reply came almost immediately.“Are you serious?”I stared at the screen before typing b
THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER SIXTY FIVE
AlIRA’S POVThe doctor’s question did not register immediately.It just hung in the air like something unreal.I stared at him, certain I had heard wrong.My fingers tightened around the edge of the hospital bed.“What did you say?”The doctor did not look amused.His expression remained calm for someone who had just asked a question capable of stopping my heart.He adjusted the file in his hand and repeated himself slowly.“I asked... How long have you been reborn?”For a second, I forgot how to breathe.The room suddenly felt smaller as everything blurred.I forced out a laugh, though it sounded weak even to my own ears.“I think you’re mistaken.”“I’m not.”“I don’t understand what you mean.”His eyes stayed fixed on mine and that unsettled me more than if he had shouted.Because he looked like a man who already knew the answer.“I came here because I haven’t been feeling well….If this is some kind of joke..”“It isn’t.”He placed the file down gently then he pulled his chair close
THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR
BETSY'S POVBy the time I reached my mother’s house, my anger had become hot and poisonous inside my chest.I didn’t knock gently.I pushed the door open and walked in like the house still belonged to me.My mother was seated in the living room, flipping through documents with her glasses low on her nose, looking far too calm for someone whose entire position had just been publicly torn apart.She looked up once then returned her eyes to the papers.“You look terrible,” she said flatly.I dropped my bag on the sofa.“Are you seriously sitting there like nothing happened?”That got her attention as she slowly removed her glasses.“Excuse me?”“Alira!” I snapped. “That’s what happened! She walked into the company like she owned the entire world and embarrassed you in front of everyone!”My mother’s jaw tightened, but she remained silent.I paced the room.“You are way too calm Mother…She had documents!!!! Real documents…Nobody questioned her. Nobody defended you…they all just sat there
THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER SIXTY THREE
ALIRA’S POVPanic would not help me.That was the first thing I told myself when the sun rose the next morning.I sat in the kitchen, holding a warm cup of coffee in both hands, staring at nothing in particular. The house was quiet except for the faint ticking of the wall clock.Someone had broken

ALIRA’S POVI didn’t wait to hear the rest of Liam’s conversation.The moment those words left his friend’s mouth, my body reacted before my mind did.Second chance…Previous life.It echoed in my head like a gunshot.My feet moved automatically as I backed away from the pillar, careful not to make
THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER NINE
ALIRA'S POV “What did I do wrong Liam?? Why are you suddenly asking me out of your house??" I asked in confusion.“Do you want me to do anything else for you??" Liam asked.“No but…" “Then it's best you leave now, Alira." He said.“I will leave Liam but will you tell me what I did wrong??" “What
THE WIDOW WHO NEVER WAS CHAPTER EIGHT
ALIRA'S POV "What can we do??” I bit out In fear as I stood up from the couch."Well ma'am, we have tried everything…we can see the money is being processed but how to stop it is something we can't seem to figure out." “Don't you have a damn hacker in the company?!!!!" “No we don't ma'am." “Shi
