Chapter 141 Michael's POVAs we stepped out of the car into Grandpa's estate, I couldn't stop feeling down and scared. I felt a wave of cold breeze wash over me as I paused. "Michael?" Jason called me while my face was bent towards the floor as I blamed myself for everything. Freya was right; if I had believed in Raymond for once, he wouldn't have had to die. I tightened my eyes as I folded my fist, controlling how much anger I felt towards Ambrose, and I vowed to make him pay; he was going to pay for everything he's done."It's not your fault," Freya's soothing voice cut me from my thought. I didn't know why she was getting me confused or why she suddenly cared about me. "Raymond's death has nothing to do with..." "Don't lie to yourself, Freya; don't patronize me. You said it clearly, that he died because of me," I snapped, shutting her up completely as I forced a smile before I left her standing together with Jason as I walked into Grandpa's main mansion."Michael, oh no! Tell me i

Chapter 143Ambrose's POVIt's been a week since I last saw the light of day, and it felt like hell right here in this shit hole. "Raymond, that fool," I muttered underneath my breath, wondering why on Earth he would sacrifice his own life for Michael and Freya. How dare he die and leave me alone to deal with these mess? As I kept thinking of everything that had happened, I knew I needed not stay here any longer. I still had to do something outside of here, and that's the only thing I should think of."Mr. Jenkins, you have a visitor." I smiled slightly, as I was already prepared to give my order to Waylen's nanny. Somehow, she was the only one who could come in and out of this place freely to pay a visit. "You have few minutes, Mr. Smith." I could hear the faint voice of the officer as I paused for a while, wondering why I would hear the last name of the person I never wanted to see. There was no way I'd let Michael see me this way, but then...it was too late for he had seen me alrea

Chapter 145 Freya's POVFew minutes after Bella left my home, I began to think about what she had said about tomorrow. Tomorrow was going to begin another new chapter of Michael's life. I thought I could cope with him being with another woman, but then, I didn't think I'll ever live with the fact that I had given up on us. At this point, I felt the only thing I could do to change my fate was to stop the introduction from happening. I didn't know how I was going to do it, but then, I'll surely storm into Grandpa's apartment and win my man.Fourteen hours later, I dropped a peck on Waylen's cheek as I got up from my bed, about to open the door when I bumped into my mom, her hand raised in a way that she was about to plant a knock on the door. "Mom?" I called, wondering why she looked so different; I mean, my mom has never dressed this way. The last time she dressed extravagantly was during Waylen's christening day."Mom," I called again, this time in a cracked voice, but I was surprise

Chapter 147Freya's POVI couldn't even get a hold of what Grandpa was saying. Probably, I heard wrong. If this was a means to make me watch Michael's intimate moment with Naomi, I wouldn't succumb to it."Mom... I trusted you," I said in a broken voice as I gave Naomi an annoying glare. This time, she raised her head to mine, and I could feel a knife stabbing in them. "I didn't think you'd betray me twice," I said, walking away, when I bumped into Jason, who was holding a package tightly. I could see the hurry in his eyes."Did you know it was Naomi all along?" I asked him, but he stared speechlessly, bulging his eyes. He probably didn't know, and from the sound of Michael's shocking voice, he didn't know either. Then, does this mean my mother knew about all of this all along?"Michael, I'm sorry," I said to him, still looking angrily at Grandpa. "I'm sorry for the way I've acted from the beginning, and I'm—""Freya, what are you doing?" Michael interrupted, trying to come closer, bu

Chapter 149Freya's POVThree days have passed since the revelation unfolded. Michael and I haven't heard from each other. I wasn't angry, but I was just too embarrassed to see him. However, I haven't been able to take my eyes off the TV; we've been the major talk of the town, and the masses have even started planning our wedding - a wedding I didn't think would happen so soon.I heard faint footsteps approaching, and I already knew it was Mother. I still haven't said a word to her. "My child," she called, her voice filled with pain. I was pricked to the heart. I just couldn't believe the fact that my mother had kept a secret like that for over seven months."I know I shouldn't have kept such a huge secret from you, but I only did what I could do for you both. I didn't want anything to come between our plans. I only wanted your love and Michael's to bloom," she said. As I rolled my eyeballs softly, I adjusted my position on the sofa and slowly raised my head to face her."Was it also
