Annabelle's pov

After thinking about everything that went down on my supposed to be wedding day with my supposed to be husband and a supposed to best friend, I got weak, weak in my knees, I just wanted to leave this place, disappear, makeover, rise above it all and be a new version of me. A version that they can't even reach, a type that Daniel will be willing to do anything to get her slightest attention.

I need to grow above all this. I think I will be moving to LA. New York has done enough to me. Enough is enough. Await my come back, brace up Mianiel or Danmia. Whatever the name of the sailing ship is. Two wretched people that would die and scream in pains after everything they put me through.

So I booked a flight ticket to LA, I bought an apartment for myself. I hope the apartment is as nice as it seems.

LA please treat me nice, I have been through enough already and it's too much for me to carry. I don't want extra problem or anything adding to my pain. I just want a fresh start.

I wanted to change my identity, change my look, change everything about me, this should be a fresh start, it got to be, it has to be.

I met with a plastic surgeon, I made my research and some underground study and I noticed the high rate of success so I had hope and faith in him and his skills. I booked an appointment, I wanted to change my look, I need to be the most beautiful and attractive female in LA, I need the attention of every producer, modelling agency and all to be on me. I need that attention. I need to improve and this is my strategy, my number 1 step and can't fail me, I worked so hard for these.

Los Angeles have a lot of model and being a well known popular model somewhere like this is hard so I need the best from the best surgeon, I don't need any sorry or anything of that sort, it's enough already, no more pity.

I went for the surgery, I got every part of my face done, did BBL, made myself look a lot curvier, plumped my lips and that was the part I loved most about my new look, can't wait for it to heal completely.

At the end of it all, I was covered in patches and scars and swollen everything, yh new scars attached to my already acquired scar. This scars won't hurt me or bring my spirit down but they will lift me above them. Way above them. I couldn't even cry because my eyelid was swollen, I just got to my apartment, laid on my bed and was having a good rest because I need it, I have been through enough to deprive myself of rest.

I can't wait to heal, I can't wait to flex my new look, I can't wait to acquire all I have ever wished for, I am tired of them always being wishes, time has come where all these has to turn out real . For me! For the sake of my broken heart.

I went to mirror, all my aching body, both with the scars, pain, patches and all, I looked into the mirror stared deep into myself and with hot tears dropping down my red inflamed eye. I said to myself “people will find, people will need you, people will crave you, people will be obsessed with you and only very very very few will be fortunate enough to get a bit of me. I have cried enough, It's time to excel, just more days to go” I can do this.

I went online to start my research on models, what they are like, how they behave, how they carry themselves just, the type of guys they date, their net worth, their beauty hack and all. I picked interest in Gigi Hadid, I fell in love with her immediately, I wanted to be just like her if not better, I would close my eyes to sleep and all I see is Gigi because every video of her, her walk, her relationship with Zayn, her behavior, the way she smiles and all, it was stuck in my head, I see it and I love it. I know it's unhealthy but so what? I still love it.

She became my idol, she became my dream self, all I wanted for myself was perfect, I made sure to take my drugs properly as prescribed, apply my ointment and all for proper healing. Nothing can go wrong! Never.

I took proper care of my body like it was an egg. I don't want any story that touches the heart.

I had a in the midst of all this chaos occuring in my head. I remembered the way Daniel was fucking Mia like it was his only opportunity to get fucked in this life, like his life depended on it or something. I just couldn't understand . A sudden chillness ran down my spine. I just went straight and made myself a super cold chocolate drink, stared through the window of my apartment looking out but not at anything. I had enough already, I just looked and sip, look and sip, cause I am cooking, and I know I will excel and they are my past now. They remain in New York. I'm done with them and everything that comes with them.

I would make generational wealth, I would make a name for myself, I would hold a strong legacy that no one would ever believe I would reach.

All I need is time. Just time, I know it's expensive but give it to me and you won't regret it.

  • The Billionaire Legacy    Chapter 127: Kellerman

    John's POVI gave it a few minutes, then slid into the booth across from Kellerman before he could leave."Dr. Kellerman?"He looked up, startled, his eyes red and watery. Up close, I could see the broken capillaries on his nose, the tremor in his hands. This was a man on the edge of falling apart completely. "Who are you?""John McQueen. I need to talk to you about Daniel Alexandra."His face went from pale to ghost-white in an instant. "I don't know anyone by that name.""Yes, you do. He's been paying you to manufacture poisons. Two hundred thousand dollars over six months. That's a lot of money for someone who can't even make his gambling payments."Kellerman stood up so fast he knocked over his drink, beer spilling across the table and dripping onto the floor. "I don't know what you're talking about.""Sit down." I kept my voice calm but firm. "I'm not a cop and I'm not working for Daniel. I'm trying to help someone he framed for murder. A woman who's sitting in jail right now for

  • The Billionaire Legacy    Chapter 126 : John Investigation

    John's POVI couldn't just sit around waiting for lawyers and judges to save Anabella.Marcus was good at his job, one of the best defense attorneys in the state, but the legal system moved too slowly. By the time her trial started, Daniel could have buried all the evidence and intimidated every witness who might speak against him. He had money, connections, and no conscience. That was a dangerous combination.So I took matters into my own hands.I hired three private investigators. The best money could buy. Former FBI agents who knew how to find things people wanted hidden, who understood how criminals thought and operated. They didn't come cheap, but I didn't care about the cost. This was about saving Anabella and protecting Peter."Follow everyone connected to Daniel," I told them during our first meeting in my office. "His employees, his business partners, his friends, anyone who might have helped him. I want to know who he talks to, where he goes, what he eats for breakfast. Ever

    Anabella's POVThree days passed before I saw Claire again.Three long days of sitting in that cell staring at the water stain on the ceiling and wondering if she was okay. The guards wouldn't tell me anything. Marcus came by twice but he didn't have any information either."They're holding her in a different facility," he said. "Fraud charges carry serious penalties. They might not let her out on bail.""Can you talk to her?""I tried. Her public defender won't let anyone near her.""Daniel got to her lawyer."Marcus didn't disagree.On the fourth day, the guard woke me up early. The sun wasn't even up yet and the jail was quiet except for someone coughing in a cell down the hall."Get up," he said. "You have a visitor.""Who?""The woman from before. Claire Jensen."I jumped off the mattress so fast I almost fell. "She's here?""Interview room. Let's go."He led me down the familiar hallway to the same small room with the same table and chairs. Claire was already there but she looke

    Anabella's POVThe jail cell was smaller than I expected.I sat on the thin mattress staring at the gray walls and trying to breathe normally. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Daniel's face in that hospital window. That smile. That cold, satisfied smile that told me everything.He won.After everything I did to protect Peter, after all the sacrifices and compromises and pieces of myself I gave up, Daniel still won.My hands were shaking. I pressed them together and squeezed until my knuckles turned white but they wouldn't stop shaking.Peter was alone. My baby was lying in a hospital bed recovering from poison and I wasn't there. I couldn't hold his hand or read him stories or tell him everything would be okay.Because maybe it wouldn't be okay.Maybe I would spend the rest of my life in prison for a crime I didn't commit while Daniel raised my son and twisted him into something dark.The thought made me want to scream but I swallowed it down. Screaming wouldn't help. Crying wouldn'

  • The Billionaire Legacy    Chapter 123: Annabella Is Arrested

    DANIEL'S POVI got out of the car and walked back into the hospital. As I passed Peter's room, I saw him sleeping peacefully. The machines beside his bed beeped in steady rhythm, a reassuring sound that meant he was stable, recovering. He looked so small and fragile under the white hospital sheets, his dark hair spread across the pillow.For a second, just a second, I felt something that might have been guilt. A twinge of recognition that I had hurt an innocent child to punish his mother. But I crushed it before it could grow, smothered it beneath the weight of my obsession.This wasn't about Peter. This was about control. This was about making sure Anabella understood that she belonged to me and no one else. Not John with his pathetic hero complex. Not her father with his desperate attempts to protect her. Me. Only me.I continued down the hallway toward Mia's room. Through the window, I could see her lying still under white sheets, monitors tracking every breath and heartbeat. The d

  • The Billionaire Legacy    Chapter 122: Framing Annabelle

    DANIEL'S POHe studied my face for a long moment, and I wondered if he suspected the truth. Richard wasn't stupid—you don't get to his level of the legal profession by being naive. "Daniel, I've known you for ten years. I've gotten you out of some complicated situations. Whatever you're doing, whatever game you're playing, be careful. These people aren't stupid, and if they catch even a whiff of what you're really up to—""Neither am I," I interrupted. "Stupid, I mean. You've seen my alibis. They're ironclad because they're real. I made sure I was nowhere near either victim when the poisonings occurred."He sighed, a sound that carried a decade of defending wealthy clients with questionable morals. He checked his watch, a Patek Philippe that I'd given him as a Christmas bonus two years ago. "I have another client in an hour. Call me immediately if they find anything, and I mean anything. Don't talk to the police without me present, don't make any statements, don't even tell them what
