Semua Bab CEO Wants Me: Heiress Has Risen Again!: Bab 61 - Bab 70

Rhea's POV “You wouldn't want to be that kind of internet famous now, would you? Running away from the phones every second, hiding from the police and even the embarrassment, I wouldn't want that for you and that's why, I'm giving you some time.” My voice dropped to a chilling whisper, “If you know what's good for you, pay up what you owe me and remember, even if you leave the house, you will still pay what you owe to me so there is no way out of this, Kevin.” Once I finished speaking, I stared at Kevin through my lashes, smiling when I saw the gears turning in his head. “You… You're not giving me any away. R… Rhea, why are you doing this to me? Don't you love me anymore? It's me, Kevin. The person you've liked for a long time! Is anyone deceiving you to start hating me? Are they telling you any lies against me? Whatever they are saying, it's not true. I…” “Kevin, I have been deceiving myself ever since I met you. My eyes are open now. Falling in love with you? Biggest mistake of

Alaric's POV “Alaric?” I turned my gaze towards the person who called my name and my eyes narrowed instantly. His smirk widened upon seeing me, “Fancy seeing you here! I thought you didn't like ice cream. How come you're…” He trailed off when he noticed Rhea beside me. If there was a way one's smirk could widen to the edges of his face, this guy would be the greatest specimen. “Well, what do we have here? Alaric, you didn't tell me that you were seeing a woman. After all these years, I thought you were gay.” Xander grinned. Xander was not my older brother per say, he was more of a cousin from my mother's family. However, he was on the path to becoming someone who would fight against me for the family's asset. Xander would become adopted into the Vale as my older brother just because Richard didn't want me to take over the company, he wanted someone that he could control quite easily and who other than the playful, womanising and mischievous Xander. Unfortunately for my father

Rhea's POV “None of us are comfortable with your presence here. It'll be best for you to leave.” I said firmly, no trace of friendliness in my voice. Richard could only stand there, staring at me with eyes that could send me to the grave and back. Not that I had not been to the grave already. “Alright then.” Richard straightened himself up, “I'll be out of your hair. We'll meet again next time, in a more formal setting.” I nodded nonchalantly, watching as he left the drawing room. The moment his back disappeared, I let out a sigh or more like a breath of relief. How did Alaric deal with this man every day until it was finally over? “Mom.” Alaric's voice brought me out of my thoughts and I turned to face Elena, who looked less pale. I just noticed that there was a wound at the side of her head that was still bleeding. I motioned for one of the servants walking around to come nearby. “Please bring me your first aid.” She nodded and left, a few minutes later, she brought

Rhea's POV “Hey Lilian, how is it going?” I spoke into the phone, leaning back on my bed. It's already been one week since I went on a date with Alaric and things have been hectic. Ginny had been avoiding me, Kevin hadn't been coming to school for the past one week, I would say that the pressure was already getting to him. I even thought he had run away or something. “They are still in the house. I believe that they genuinely think you won't be able to do anything to them. And you've been quiet1 throughout this week so they are more relaxed than ever. Kevin even threw a party for his sister there a day ago.” Lilian responded, some clicking and clacking sounding from her side. I sat up instantly, “Really?! They threw a party?!” “Mhmhm. It was a pretty big party, lots of lights, music and food. The neighbours even came to make complaints about the noise but no matter what I said, they wouldn't listen. They came up with the drivel of how it's their house and they can choose whatev

Rhea's POV “You're not leaving here until you give us an explanation!” Kevin's mother held me by the arm, almost dragging me off my wheelchair. I narrowed my eyes at her and slapped her hands away. “How… How dare you?!” She held her palms and stared at me in shock. I don't know why she still could not wrap her head around the fact that I didn't want anything to do with them anymore. Did she think I was acting like this to get Kevin's attention or something? “What kind of explanation do you need, Mrs Henford? An explanation on why I'm asking people to take away the furniture in MY house? Don't you think that's a crazy take from your side?” I crossed my arms, staring squarely at her. “But… You… We have been staying here for a long time! How could you just…” “Ah, yes. You've been occupying the house that I bought under my name because your son managed to make me think that if I allowed you all to stay here, he would somehow like me and in the end, we would live happily ever afte
