EmilyI held Grandma’s hand tightly as I gently rubbed my thumb over her fragile fingers. Tears clouded my eyes, and I blinked them away, but they kept falling soft and slow. The steady beep of the hospital machine beside us was the only sound in the room, but inside me… it was chaos.Lying here like this, she looked so small. So unlike the powerful woman who had stepped into my life six years ago like a force of nature.Six years ago…If someone had told me back then that I had a grandmother, let alone one of the richest and most powerful women in the world. I would have laughed bitterly. I didn’t grow up with any grandparents. My mother never spoke about her parents and my father? He never has time for me, let alone tell me about his mother.But I remember that day like it was yesterday. The day my marriage came to an end.I was broken, lost as I wandered around the city with nothing but pain in my heart and my unborn child in my womb. I just signed my divorce papers then, and I h

AlexAfter a few quiet minutes, there was a gentle knock on the door. Two nurses stepped in with soft smiles on their faces."Good afternoon, Mr. Alex," one of them said politely. "We’re here to take your son to the lab for his tests."Phil looked up at me immediately, his big eyes wide with fear. I could see the panic growing on his face, and it tore my heart apart.I smiled and gently placed my hand on his cheek. “Hey, buddy. It’s just a test, okay? Nothing to be scared of. I’ll be right here waiting for you.”He nodded slowly, but his little fingers clung to mine for a second before the nurses carefully guided him out of the room.The moment the door closed behind them, I leaned back in the chair and ran a hand down my face. I felt exhausted, drained, mentally and emotionally. Just then, my phone started ringing.I pulled it out of my pocket and paused when I saw Vanessa's name glowing on the screen.Finally,I have been calling her all day to tell her about Phil’s condition but sh

EmilyMy hand brushed his and the moment our fingers touched, I felt something, something I thought I had buried deep down six years ago.I quickly pulled my hand away as if his touch burned but I wasn’t fast enough to stop the wave of emotion that swept through me. His flashlight cast soft shadows over his face and in that moment, I hated how he still looked handsome… maybe even better. The sharpness of his jaw, the softness in his eyes, the way he looked at me like I still meant something.But I didn’t. I shouldn’t.“Emily,” he whispered again, gently.My heart clenched. Why did he have to say my name like that? Like it was a prayer, like it still belonged to him.“I told you to mind your business,” I said, my voice low but firm. “Don’t make me repeat myself.”He gave a small smile, not smug… just sad. “I know. I just… I hate seeing you like this.”I scoffed and turned away, pretending to focus on my phone that was broken. “You don’t have the right to care anymore.”“I know,” he s

EmilyI stared at Lucas, still holding my phone tightly with my heart pounding so hard I could hear it in my ears.My phone vibrated again and it was a video clip from Dr. Frances. I didn’t waste time. I looked at Lucas, who was already sitting up with curiosity written all over his face.“Lucas, please give me your laptop,” I said gently.Without a word, he pulled it from the side of his bed and handed it over. I connected my phone to the laptop using a cable and transferred the video file. Lucas leaned closer, watching me in silence. Once it finished loading, I opened the video and pressed play.The footage came up, grainy at first but clear enough. It showed the hospital hallway outside the main electrical control room.Lucas sat beside me, his tiny face serious. I could feel the heat of his presence next to me, and even though he didn't say a word, I knew he was watching as carefully as I was.The time stamp was exactly thirty minutes before the elevator lights went off.Together,

AlexFred was still staring at me like I had lost my mind.“Emily is part of the reason I asked you to come,” I said, watching his face closely. “But she’s not the only reason.”Fred leaned back slightly, folding his arms. “Go on.”“I need you to help me investigate something. Something important.”Fred raised a brow. “About what?”I ran a hand down my face and sighed. “Emily. I want to know where she has been all these years, how she became the heiress of the King Empire, and…” I paused, unsure of how to explain the most confusing part, “…I need you to look into two kids. A boy and a girl. Their names are Lucas and Lily.”Fred frowned slightly. “Kids?”“Yes,” I said softly. “They look exactly like Phil.”Fred blinked. “Exactly?”“You won’t believe it until you see them. I’m not exaggerating, Fred. They could pass for triplets.”He rubbed his chin and studied me for a moment as if I were out of my mind.“Are you sure you are not just seeing things because you are emotionally attached
