Leah's Pov "Mom!" I called out, my voice quavering as I sat up with difficulty.Leah, dear," Mom said as she walked towards me, "I will take my leave then," the doctor said as he walked out."Mom, what's going on?" I asked, struggling to comprehend what they had just said.Mom looked at me and smiled, "You are pregnant, dear. There is a little life growing in you," she said as she gently placed her hand on my stomach. My gaze was unfocused as I gently rubbed my stomach. "I am pregnant?" I muttered. "How come? When did this happen?" The foetus is in an unstable condition, you need to stop drinking Leah, if not for yourself, for your unborn baby," Mom said as she walked out of the room.I pursed my lips, my voice quivering. "Axel, I am pregnant. I am carrying your baby," I said slowly, tears rolling down my cheeks. With my hands shaking, I searched the bedside table and brought out a frame. It was the picture of Axel and me on the day he died. I looked at his smiling face, my heart s

Leah's Pov"Axel! Axel!" I called out anxiously as I hurried into the condo. My heart raced as I frantically searched for any sign of my husband's return. Just beside the shoe rack were a pair of...male shoes. Was Axel really home? My breath came in gasps as I dashed into the living room, shouting, "Axel!" But there was no sign of him, or Jasper. "Granny Ruth, where are you?!" I called out, feeling a sense of desolation as the house remained silent, like a graveyard that I dreaded. Was it all a dream? Could I be hallucinating? My mind raced with questions as I walked into the garden, devastated by the absence of my family.As I scanned the garden, my eyes caught sight of a shadow standing under the cherry blossom tree. The delicate flowers were in full bloom, creating a picturesque scene. The figure stood with its back facing me, and as I approached, I recognized the familiar stance. The back... it was just like Axel's. "Axel!!" I screamed as I ran towards the figure, tears flo

Leah's Pov The next day,Police stationAs I sat opposite Kian, a sense of unease prickled at me. His smug demeanor and the way he carried himself in his prison clothes with an air of arrogance made me wary. "How are you doing, Kian?" I asked, keeping a composed facade. "Thanks to you, I am where I never thought I could be," he replied arrogantly, raising his handcuffed hands."You brought this upon yourself," I stated firmly, leaning closer to him. "Besides, I have a question to ask you." I held his gaze, searching for any sign of sincerity. "Did you approach me because of the formula?" I couldn't shake the doubt that had been gnawing at me since last night. Kian's sudden appearance, his behavior—everything felt off. I was tired of people approaching me for ulterior motives, and the uncertainty was weighing heavily on me.Kian met my gaze, a smirk playing on his lips. "What do you think?" he said, waggling his eyebrows provocatively. Frustration and sadness welled up inside me

Leah's PovAs I sat in the bedroom, flipping through the unsettling documents and pictures of the crime scene, I couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions. "When was the corpse discovered?" I asked Derek, struggling to keep my voice steady. "Last night. The police are still investigating," he replied, his tone somber and concerned. I looked at the graphic image before me, and a mixture of sadness and anger washed over me. "What pleasures are there in marking people?" I murmured to myself, my frustration evident as I rubbed my temple. Besides... what connection is there between Axel and M? What mysterious letters had he been sending? Is he related to Axel's death?My mind was a whirlwind of unanswered questions."Ms. Leah, the shareholders are calling," Derek's voice broke through my thoughts, jolting me back to reality. I let out a weary sigh and took the phone, preparing myself for the usual barrage of demands from the shareholders. "Director Kiln, Director Adams, Director Chase

Leah's Pov"Miss Leah, are you sure this is such a great idea?" Derek asked me as I put on my shoes. "What isn't a great idea?" I asked him. "How sure are you that president Liam is President Axel, though they look alike, but... their faces are not the same at all," he said, looking distressed. I looked at Derek, "Don't you trust me?" I said, looking straight into his eyes. Derek looked at me and hesitated, he didn't know what to say. His expression said it all, "Are you crazy, Miss? President Axel is already dead... already dead.""Huhh!" I exclaimed. "Nevermind, you won't understand anyway." "How sure are you that it's him?" he said, following me to the kitchen as I poured some milk into my cereals. I looked at him, "Because... That night when I fell on Axel, I had lifted the hair by the side of his ear, to check for something... to check for the tiniest details anyone could hardly notice... a sexy little mole at the top of his ear. Which was there, that was when I knew for sur
