Lahat ng Kabanata ng Sweet Revenge of The Rejected Daughter : Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

Alice’s POVI could barely sleep that night as I repeatedly tossed and turned on the bed. My eyes stayed wide open, staring widely at the ceiling. What if everything I knew about myself was a lie? Memories of Klaus' words rang in my mind. “Make sure she never finds out.” What did he mean by that? And why was he so desperate to keep me in the dark? My toes curled tightly under the sheets as everything replayed in my head. The more I tried to convince myself that everything was a coincidence, the less I believed myself. The package, the baby picture, Sophia’s striking resemblance and Klaus. The DNA test was ready and at that thought my pulse couldn’t help but pounce heavily in my chest. After flipping the pillow and kicking off the blankets numerous times, I surprisingly fell asleep. The next morning, I woke up feeling a bit weak. Before I could stand up to freshen up, the door swung open. “Good morning, wife.”Klaus was putting on a grey shirt which complimented his eyes. His hair

Alice’s POVWalking back into the mansion, I saw Klaus seated on the chair while he smoked, his fingers holding the cigarette loosely. My chest tightened. He had lied to me. Klaus didn’t marry me randomly, he did because I was a Grey. The realization felt like a knife cutting into me. Maybe he never even liked me. Maybe he was pretending all along. My eyes blurred with tears but I immediately wiped them with my thumb.Klaus turned, his brows furrowed. “Why do you look so sad? What’s wrong?”He looked genuinely concerned but I couldn’t even bring myself to believe it was real. “Alice, why aren’t you saying anything?”I told myself I’d act normal. Act like I wasn’t just finding out the man I loved was using me for a reason. A reason I didn’t know.Sophia’s words rang in my head. “Klaus knew all along that you’re a Grey. I don’t know why he married you, but I know Klaus hates me as much as hates the entire Grey family. This brings me to the conclusion he might have done this for one r

Victoria’s POVI slipped through the mansion gate, my heart pounding as I hurried toward the house. I glanced over my shoulder to see if anyone had followed me. Fortunately, no one had. I released a deep breath, clutching at my chest. I couldn’t afford to let anyone know where I’d been tonight. I quietly walked through the hallway, praying I merged with the shadows. Everyone seemed to be asleep which was good news to me. I hurriedly made my way upstairs while clutching at the brown document. I had spent the entire ride home wondering what was inside. A bit of excitement washed over me realizing this might be something that could ruin Alice forever. Maybe it was a secret about her. Or maybe a scandal that was hidden. I just couldn’t wait to open it. Getting to my room, I locked the door behind me. My fingers trembled as I stared at the brown document. For several seconds, I couldn’t bring myself to open it. His warnings kept replaying in my mind “Once you open it, you’re stuck with

Victoria’s POV Damn it. Michael wasn’t picking my calls, instead he was declining each and every one of them. “Aagh!” I threw my phone onto the bed. Why couldn’t he at least listen to what I had to say? I stared at my phone for a while. Fine, if he wouldn’t speak to me, perhaps he’d listen because of Alice. Then, I picked my phone up, my fingers flying around my keyboard. “We need to talk. It’s about Alice.” Then I hit send. I placed the phone back on the bed and waited. It showed a double tick, indicating he had seen it. I scrolled up, reading our previous conversations. The last few were mine and most of them were unanswered. Just looking at them made my blood boil. That arrogant bastand. Memories flooded my mind. There was a time Michael was literally obsessed with me. He would hold me tight, whispering promises of forever. The jokes, the late night calls, the passionate love making. Back then, I had stupidly thought he really loved me. Now it was all clear. I was his wife

Alice’s POV I stared at my food, my appetite long gone. Across from me, Klaus barely touched his food either, and every few seconds, his gaze drifted back to me. There was a flicker of suspicion in his eyes, as if he could see right through me. It was even worse after he returned from that call. “What?” He lifted his brow. “Huh?” “You keep staring at me.” “So? Am I not allowed to look at my wife?” Normally, those words would have made a blush blossom on my cheeks or earned him a playful remark. But tonight, I felt numb. Why? Because I didn’t know if he meant any of those words. “Then go ahead. Look all you want.” His grey eyes dimmed and the small smile on his face faltered. I immediately regretted my words. That was too harsh. I had to be careful. I can’t keep acting like this because if I do, he would realize something was wrong. And that was the last thing I wanted him to know. Klaus set his fork down. “Alice, look me in the eye and tell me everything is fine.
