I pulled to a halt in front of the house and stepped inside, shutting the door behind me. As I made my way toward the stairs, a loud scream pierced the air—it came from Mom's room.

Without thinking, I dashed toward her door. I pushed it open and froze.

Linda was in the room, her back to me, completely unaware of my presence as she focused on something out of sight. I took a step closer and gently tapped her shoulder. She jumped, startled, and quickly slipped something into her pocket before tur

  • Whispers Of a Forgotten Love    Chapter 44: Eric's POV

    The warm sunlight brushed against my face, and I slowly opened my eyes, rising from the comfort of my bed. Morning had arrived, and I reached for my phone to check the time.As I glanced at the screen, I noticed a missed call from Elena - she'd called around 10 PM the night before. Why would she call so late? I wondered, dialing her number, but it rang without an answer.I tried calling her again, figuring she was probably busy and hadn't checked her phone. After a few more attempts, I gave up and tossed my phone onto the bed. Time to get moving - I dashed into the bathroom to wash up and get ready for work.The cool water splashed against my face, refreshing me as I scrubbed away the sleep. "I'll catch up with her at the office," I thought, mentally running through the day's tasks ahead.I slipped into my black suit, knotted my tie, grabbed the car key, and headed out of my room. I walked down the stairs, pausing briefly at mom's room before making my exit. The morning air hit me as

    I held my phone up to her face and she froze"Who is this?" she asked, pretending not to recognize the person. I chuckled and replied, "You don't know who this is?" As I spoke, I picked up her fork, which she hadn't noticed had slipped from her hand, and placed it back in her grasp. I forced a smile,with rage burning up inside of me. She smiled awkwardly and adjusted the fork in her hand."Well, this is just some random person, I don't even know her." I said and she nodded her head, still trying to maintain her composure. "But why do you look so surprised?" I asked."I think I'm just startled," she said, her voice cracking slightly. "She looks like a deceased friend of mine." "Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that," I said, studying her expression. I was taken aback by her words – it seemed a bit blunt to refer to herself as "dead".She stood up gently and made her way inside, I looked at her with the thought of revenge running in my head.— — — — — — I pulled the car to a gentle s

  • Whispers Of a Forgotten Love    Chapter 42: Linda's POV

    I got up early in the morning, restless from a sleepless night. The air felt quiet and heavy, like it carried the weight of my thoughts. I made my way into the bathroom and took a short warm bath, letting the water relax my tense muscles and clear my head.Stepping out, I sat in front of the dressing mirror, staring at my reflection. A smirk tugged at my lips. “I’m the most beautiful on Earth,” I whispered to myself with confidence. But then, as if from nowhere, a quiet voice echoed in my head — “It’s not even your real face.”I narrowed my eyes and raised my chin. “It’s already mine,” I said aloud, almost growling at the words like I was defending myself against an invisible accuser. I glanced around the room, realizing I was alone. A chill ran down my spine, but I shook it off.I began applying my makeup with precision, each stroke building a version of myself I wanted the world to see. After the final touch, I slipped into a bold, red gown that hugged my figure just right, and sli

She jumped, startled, and quickly slipped something into her pocket before turning around."Are you okay?" I asked, eyeing her."Yes… I'm fine," she replied too quickly."I heard Mom scream. What happened? Is she alright?" I asked, shifting my gaze toward the bed where Mom lay still, eyes closed."She's fine," Linda said with a forced smile. "Just had a bad dream."Without another word, she brushed past me and left the room.I moved closer to Mom and gently touched her forehead. Her temperature felt normal, and her breathing was steady—calm, even.Strange.I was sure I he

    At first, it was a bit shaky—recorded from a distance. But then, the image sharpened. My eyes widened in disbelief as I saw Linda with Dora in a abandoned building.I stared harder at the video, my heart pounding as the footage played. Linda and Dora stood in what looked like an abandoned building, their voices muffled by the poor audio, but their body language said it all—this wasn’t a casual meeting.My chest tightened as the memory of the words I heard from behind her door echoed in my head: "You know you're a fake, so you have to listen to whatever I say, Linda."The pieces started falling into place, painfully slow but clear. This wasn't a coincidence. This wasn’t a misunderstanding. I looked up, my face twisted in disbelief, but Grandpa didn’t say a word. He just watched me—eyes firm, patient, almost like he was waiting for me to finally catch up with the truth.“No…” I muttered, shaking my head. “This can’t be right. They’re not even… close. Why would they meet like thi

    I went back and sat quietly on the bed, a heavy feeling sitting in my chest. I reached for my phone on the counter and quickly dialed the number of my personal investigator.The line connected almost immediately. “Hello boss,” his voice came through. “I was just about to call you. I found Mr. Alexandra’s new location.”I stiffened. “What? He changed his location?”“Yes, boss,”* he confirmed. I paused, my mind racing. *“But why? Did he suspect any move? We haven’t made a move yet.”He sighed. “Sir, that’s exactly what I’ve been trying to warn you about. He’s more careful—and far more dangerous—than we initially thought. Every step he takes is calculated.”“Okay,” I said, my voice firm. “Forward the address to me after this call. Also, I want you to tail someone for me—discreetly. I need solid evidence.”“Alright, boss. Who’s the target?”I hesitated for a second, then said, “It’s Linda.”There was a pause on the line. “Sir… your fiancée?”“Hmm,” I scoffed, irritation bubbling in my

    I sat down carefully in front of him, my eyes never leaving his. He raised his brows, visibly curious, probably trying to read me. “I’m Adrian Lancaster,” I said calmly, but the name hit him like a slap. His eyes widened instantly, and his entire demeanor shifted from calm to panicked. He began t

    I led her upstairs, I closed the door behind me, my hand brushing the strand of her hair behind her ear. My hand lingered tracing her jaw, my finger shaking lightly. “I must forget her, I must forget Elena” I thought inwardly.Our lips met with fire—slow at first, then hungry. My hand slid down her

    I stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the first floor. Just as the doors were about to close, a polished black shoe slid between them, stopping it. I looked up—and there stood Mr. Eric.He stepped in calmly, his polished black shoes making a soft sound against the elevator floor. T
