SOPHIA

I was livid but also scared. All I saw was red as I frantically packed up my stuff into the first bag I found and Aiden grabbed my hand to stop me from panicking.

“You have to calm down first, Sophia. Even if we wanted to leave now, we can't. We need a helicopter and it'll only get here tomorrow” he told me and I wrapped my arms around myself.

“We shouldn't have underestimated him, Aiden. I should have known he would do this. He would try to take away everything he gave me and that's the foundation. My foundation”

My voice broke as I thought about it even more. The thought of losing it all. Everything I’d worked for, just going down the drain like that.

It was going to kill me. It was going to make me a great mess and worse of all, all those kids and families that depended on me. They would be left stranded all because of Damien.

“All those people I’m helping, Aiden. They will be left with nothing if I shut the foundation down. I have no idea what to do or tell them. This is

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    You have to see this

    SOPHIA“So what now? Do we wait to hear from your parents or…”“When they execute their plan, you'll know, Aiden. They won't have to call you to let you know” I answered his question as we walked to our rooms.He took my hand and linked our fingers so I looked at him. “You're sure we did the right thing?” He asked another question and I nodded with an encouraging smile.“We did, Aiden. If we can't take them both down at the same time, we start with one of them. It just happened to be Elena” I replied.“But she's your sister. Surely, it must hurt, even if it's a little” he insinuated but I chuckled dryly.“Elena and I were once close but that was a long time ago. She chose to be one hateful person that she is, Aiden. No one forced it on her… and sometimes, it's best to accept people for who they are because letting them go becomes easier” I told him but he didn't say anything for a while.“You're sure you're fine, right?” He asked once more and I was quick to nod. I was fine and even

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Do you forgive us?

    SOPHIA“We only need your help to stop Elena from causing any more trouble before it’ll cause reputational damage to Hale’s Dynasty. We both know the public won’t be forgiving if they find out what she’s done and it’ll definitely affect the family business” I told my parents while the maids packed up the dishes from the dining table and they still couldn’t bring themselves to say anything after everything we’d told them. We’d shown them the evidence and once they saw we had a lot of it, they realized it was a futile fight for Elena. She’d been cornered and there was no saving her. Especially after the things she’d done. They were unforgivable.“She’s right, Mr and Mrs Hale. The company is doing very well right now and even though that is all thanks to Elena, we can’t ignore the fact that she’s gone beyond control. Damien Locke is a very dangerous man who won’t hesitate to take out anyone in his way and she joined hands with him”“He almost killed Sophia but thankfully, I got there o

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    Care to explain?

    SOPHIAWe returned to the dining room but Elena was nowhere to be found. So I looked at my parents and my mum shrugged.“She left claiming that she had some business to finish at the office before Monday” my dad said before taking a sip from his glass and I shared a quick look with Aiden. She’d obviously escaped but I wondered how that was going to help.It was only going to worsen matters if I told our parents everything in her absence.“So… Aiden Cross. How long have you been seeing my daughter?” my dad suddenly asked out of nowhere and I looked at Aiden to see he’d stopped chewing for a moment. Then he swallowed.“Sophia and I have quite a history, Mr Hale” he began and my dad raised an eyebrow. All while I quietly watched their exchange as I ate.“Care to explain? So her mother and I can understand what you mean?” my dad asked him and Aiden looked at me. I nodded at him, giving him the go ahead to tell them everything that had transpired between us and he nodded back at me before

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    I'm your sister!

    SOPHIA “You can't tell them anything when you get back to the dining room, Sophia. In fact, you won't. Instead, you will change your dress, eat the rest of your dinner in silence and leave with Aiden once it ends. Alright?”Elena told me immediately I shut the bathroom door after us and I was quite surprised to know she still had such audacity. Even though she was the one at my mercy.“Is that a threat or a plea?” I asked her, my arms folded across my chest and she ran her fingers through her hair while her eyes parted back and forth uneasily. She was truly panicking… She even looked desperate. “I don't care what you think it is so take your pick. All I know is you shouldn't say anything to mum and dad. Or I'll make you regret it” she hissed, causing me to chuckle in amusement while I nodded my head.“So it is a threat” I took my pick like she told me to and she began to blink frantically. “Do you think Damien is just going to sit back and let the both of you have your way? It doe

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    I'll talk to her

    SOPHIAMr Stan was already waiting by the door by the time we arrived at my parent's place and I wondered if we were late as we took off our coats.“Are they…”“Yes, Miss Hale. They're all waiting in the dining room already” Mr Stan answered and Aiden shared a panicked look with me.We were late!“Weren't we meant to make dinner together? That's what mum told me” I told him, confused about why they were all in the dining room already and he adjusted his glasses.“I guess she changed her mind. Maybe she didn't want to keep Mr Cross waiting while making dinner” he replied and I guessed I could understand what he meant.They were going to head straight into business with Aiden, leaving no room for friendliness with him. “Thanks, Mr Stan” I thanked the butler and he nodded in return before walking away to have our coats hanged.Holding onto Aiden's hand, I led the way to the dining room where the family waited. Including Elena. I was shocked to see her there.We didn't say a word to anyo

  • The comeback of the billionaire heiress    You look nervous

    SOPHIAMorning came and by the time I was up, breakfast was ready.Aiden already had it served when I joined him in the kitchen and together, we ate. I could feel the many cameras from corners, across the street and even the camouflaged ones as Aiden and I walked down to the nearest grocery store. I found myself wanting to go back home the farther we got and when Aiden noticed, he took my hand and held it tight.“You look nervous” he said while watching me with concern and I nodded in admittance.“That's because I'm feeling nervous as hell, Aiden. There are cameras everywhere and it's making me uncomfortable… I've never experienced something like this before” I told him and he smiled as gently as he could. “Well, we agreed to hang out together in public as many times as we could. We can't let Elena think she's winning by hiding away… that's what you said” he reminded me but I scoffed in regret.“And now, I'm wishing I didn't say any of that. I underestimated what it would feel like
