The Forgotten Heiress Chapter 72
I stared through the car window at the mansion in front of me.Even from where I was parked, it looked like a really luxurious building.There were a lot of expensive cars lined up along the driveway one after another, while well-dressed guests stepped out laughing as members of the staff hurried over to collect their keys.Just like the El Camino mansion, Dexter’s personal home was also a beauty to behold.I shook my head.I wasn’t here to admire or compare the two mansions.Get your head together. This wasn’t just another party.This was the first time I was stepping into Dexter’s private world.The place where he let his guard down, and where he probably kept things nobody else ever got to see.Maybe…The answers Blake and I had been searching for were somewhere inside that house.My phone suddenly vibrated in my hand.Blake.I answered immediately.“Have you gone in yet?”I looked back at the mansion.“Not yet.”“You’ve been sitting in that car for almost five minutes.”I sighed.“

My alarm rang loudly beside me, waking me up from my sleep.“It’s morning already,” I groaned and reached blindly across the bedside table for my phone until my fingers found it.The screen was unusually bright against my sleepy eyes.I rubbed my eyes slowly as I sat up and noticed an unread message from Dexter.My brows furrowed immediately.Who sends work messages this early in the morning?I yawned before opening it.There will be no work at the office today. The company is undergoing minor renovations, so all activities have been suspended. Work from home today.I read it twice just to make sure I wasn’t imagining things.Then I threw my head back onto the pillow.“Thank God.”I didn’t have to rush out of bed and run to the café to get Dexter’s breakfast order.This break was needed. I stretched lazily beneath the blanket.After another few minutes of enjoying the comfort of my bed, I finally forced myself up.I went through my usual morning routine.I swept my room.Made my bed.

“You asked to see me, sir?” I said as I walked into Dexter’s office.Dexter was already back behind his desk, flipping through a file as though the conversation I’d overheard had never happened.If I hadn’t heard those few sentences with my own ears, I would’ve believed nothing had happened at all.Madison, on the other hand, was still sitting comfortably in the chair opposite him, one leg crossed over the other while scrolling through her phone.The moment she saw me, she smiled before continuing to scroll.I returned a polite smile.“Mia,” Dexter looked up briefly.“Yes, sir?”He slid one file aside and picked up another.“I won’t be available for my three o’clock appointment.”I pulled out my notepad immediately.“Should I move it to tomorrow?”“No.” He shook his head. “Reschedule it for five o’clock instead.”“Alright, sir.”I quickly wrote it down.“Anything else?”“You can—”“Wait.”Madison suddenly interrupted him.She reached into her designer handbag and pulled out a cream-colo

I quietly closed Dexter’s office door behind me.What was wrong with me today?First, I almost exposed myself over a bottle of perfume.Then I somehow ended up asking Dexter questions about a woman from his past.And to make things worse…I was actually curious about the answer.I rubbed my forehead lightly.“Athena…” I muttered under my breath. “Focus.”Why was I so eager to know about that woman from his past?Was I hoping I was the girl he was talking about?I quickly shook my head. I was just curious.Nothing else.I made my way toward the staff pantry.Unlike Dexter, Madison didn’t look like someone who would ask for black coffee first thing in the morning.She seemed more like the orange juice type.I opened the refrigerator and stared at the different drinks arranged inside.Orange juice.Apple juice.Sparkling water.Different soft drinks were neatly arranged on the shelves.After standing there for almost a minute, I finally picked up a bottle of freshly squeezed orange juice

The elevator doors opened with a soft ding.I stepped out, balancing Dexter’s breakfast pack in my hands.“I wish I had slept more,” I whispered to myself as I walked toward his office.Blake and I came back home late yesterday after the twins’ entrance ceremony. He even had to spend the night at the cottage because it was too late for Jim to drive back home. He should be awake by now.On the other hand, I had to wake up early to come to work and get Dexter’s breakfast.I wondered if he was already at the office.Talking about Dexter…I remembered how embarrassing yesterday was.Hiding behind shopping bags.Running around with potato chips covering my face.Then somehow ending up glued to Dexter’s chest like a frightened koala.I squeezed my eyes shut for a brief second.“Oh God… I wish I could wipe yesterday out of my memory.”Dexter’s office window was open, which meant he was already inside.I glanced at the clock. He was early, though I wasn’t late either.I reached his office door

We pulled into a quiet picnic area just outside the main campus. Unlike the busy parts of the university, this place was peaceful. Only a few wooden tables and chairs sat beneath tall trees, and the evening breeze made everything feel calm. “This place is beautiful,” I murmured. “Told you,” June grinned. We got out and started unloading the coolers, shopping bags, drinks, and food. “Aww…”July’s eyes widened.“You actually brought all this?” “There’s no way we can finish everything,” June added I smiled.“The leftovers can go to your friends.” “Athena…”She hugged me again.“You’re the best.” A few minutes later, everything had been arranged neatly on the table. Blake connected a small speaker and played nice songs. The atmosphere instantly became lighter. I started serving everyone. “Here.”I handed June her plate of fried rice and grilled chicken. Then handed July and Blake theirs. “Mmmmmm…”The twins groaned after their first bite. “We’ve missed your cooking. They don’t

The park was a bit more crowded than usual. Children were running around, playing on swings, and participating in different games. Some couples sat under trees while others walked their dogs.I sat on the bench, closed my eyes, and took a deep breath. Coming here wasn’t a bad idea after all.“Athen

Two days had passed since I lost my job and the life of Mia Roberts ended.I kept the wig and everything I used for my disguise locked up in my wardrobe seeing them made me more angry.The twins had asked why I hadn’t been going to work, but I couldn’t bring myself to tell them I was fired.They we

“Babyyyyyyyyy!”“Jesus Christ, Cassie.” I removed the phone from my ear because of how loud she screamed.Cassie’s voice could wake the dead.I placed the phone back to my ear.“You almost damaged my eardrums, Cassie.”“Sorry, baby, but are you okay? Your voice is low?” Cassie asked, her voice imme

Dexter POV “The audacity that girl has.” “You misplace a document and if I hadn't handled the damages she caused me in that meeting. I could have lost my contract and she has the guts to run her mouth?” I scoffed. “Can you imagine that, Fox?” I said to the driver. “I understand you, sir,” he
