Jay’s POV“Sir, look what they’re doing in the car,” Ken said.I saw a good show that I could use as an excuse to get Megan out of our lives forever. I’ve held onto some of the truth about her and once I know all the truth, I would keep her out of my children’s lives and Piper’s and I wouldn’t let her hurt them.Never in my wildest dreams I would have thought that Megan would do such a terrible thing to her cousin. There must be a reason for all of this. If it was about money, wouldn’t Helen have divided her inheritance equally between her two children? Nick said that Piper’s dad passed away a few years ago, so there’s no way Helen would give Piper and her mom a bigger inheritance while John Smith helped Helen run the company.Or maybe John knew Helen was planning to leave most of her inheritance to Piper. That’s why Megan hurt Piper to get her and her mother kicked out of Helen’s mansion. If that’s the real reason behind all this chaos, Helen must have her reasons for favoring Piper.

Jay Lee’s POVI stood up and approached him. He remained standing where he was, unmoving. His blue eyes stared at me. It was the first time I saw and met the boy who was separated from me for six years. And for all that time, I didn’t know his whereabouts and identity.If he knew the truth, would he be willing to accept my explanation and existence?“Your name is Jensen, right?” I asked.“Yes, who are you?” he asked. His voice was a soft boy’s voice. He was taller than Jessie. And since they were twins, of course, their faces were similar. His eyes were the same blue color as mine, his hair was light brown, the same color as Piper’s hair.“Oh, umm, my name is Jay Lee Adams. I’m your mom’s boss. Nice to meet you,” I replied as I shook his hand.“So, you’re Jessie’s dad,” he said.“Yes. You must have met her. Congratulations on your victory.”Oh, I’d forgotten that they’d met earlier that morning. But I wasn’t ready to explain anything. What should I do?“Thank you. Jessie has a face si

Piper’s POVIt turned out that Jay took us to a café on the top deck of the ship that has an indoor and outdoor room. The special thing about the café was that their outdoor room had the most beautiful view because it was on the top deck. So, we could see the sea view all around us.The first time I entered the café, I was surprised because it was quiet and there were only four of us. I guessed Jay must have booked this café, especially for us. From the direction of the kitchen came the sound of clanking cooking utensils. Several waiters were standing around us with friendly smiles. One waitress, wearing a different uniform from the others, led us to the outdoor room.Then she closed the door separating the indoor and outdoor rooms. I was sure my guess was right. There was no one but us in this café. Jay had planned all this. And even more surprising, in the outdoor room, there was only a square-shaped, sizable table and four chairs.“Sir, is it just the four of us here?” I asked, loo

Piper’s POVMoments later, I heard a loud laugh from the other end of the phone. Megan laughed loudly. Maybe she was laughing at Jay’s warning. I already suspected this. She is not a woman who gives up easily when her desires are in her hands.“Jessie, Jensen, let’s just sit there and let your dad take the call first,” I asked them. So, I took their hands, walked away from Jay and sat on the long chairs available along the aisle.Throughout the conversation between Jay and Megan, I saw the look on Jay’s face unhappy. The tone of his voice seemed to hold emotions that were ready to explode like a volcano ready to spew out all the hot lava. It seems like their relationship hasn’t been all right. May there be a way out of the strangeness of the relationship between the three of us?“Mom, did something happen? I think I heard someone yelling on the phone,” Jensen asked.“Aunty Megan is on the phone and I think everything is all right. Are you sleepy?” I’m trying to divert the conversation

Piper’s POV After laughing, Megan screamed so loud it made our ears ring. Then, in a flash that I couldn’t avoid, she pushed my body toward a shelf near the sofa. I crashed into the shelf, then into the wall, and fell to the floor along with the shelf. I winced in pain and my legs ached as I tried to get up and stand. It wasn’t until I realized that my left arm had landed on a piece of the fallen statue. No wonder I felt my arm was sore. Faintly, I heard Jay shouting, and he came over to me and tried to lift my body. I saw Ken and Nick holding Megan’s hand from hurting me again. She was still screaming, even louder this time, as she cursed all of us. “I swear you will suffer and pay for what you have done to me. I will remember these insults and all of you will repay my heartache a hundredfold,” Megan yelled as she tried to break free from Ken and Nick’s grip. “Let go of my hand, you fool,” she yelled with a glare. However, Ken and Nick did not release their grip on Megan’s hand
