All Chapters of Reborn as Elena Scarlet : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Adrian's POV"Welcome, sir."I just walked past."You have a meeting with the ex-Governor by 4 p.m.," my P.A. said, trailing behind me like a shadow."Then a golf meeting with your father and a business partner at 5, and your language tutor arrives at 6." He said, still looking at his tab.I paused."I'm only seventeen. Can’t I get a breathing space? I mean, I just got back from school," I muttered under my breath, with frustration.I didn’t wait for a response. I sighed and kept walking.He was just doing his job; it wasn’t like he could change anything anyway.***"Hello, sir," I greeted, shaking hands with Kade’s father—the ex-Governor of California, now prepping for a re-run."Please, sit," he said, his voice lined with rehearsed charm.I already knew what this meeting was about. He wanted access to my grandfather. A favor or maybe a chance to have a conversation with him."How have you been, Adrian?""Fine," I replied with a small, grin."How’s the campaign going?" I asked out of

Tessa's POV (as Elena)“Mom,” I called softly, pulling out of her embrace.“Can we go see the girl in the hospital?” I asked, my eyes already brimming with tears. “After school tomorrow?”“Okay, baby,” she said, pulling me into another hug. Maybe if we go back to the hospital, something might come up. I hugged her tighter, silently wishing the truth could find me first.***Next Day at school — Games DayI got to school already exhausted from everything that had happened the day before.“Today is for extracurricular activities, El,” Bella said, as we walked through the hallway.“Oh, really?”“Are you going to your music class now? You play the violin.”“Uhmm… yes, I will,” I replied, “but I’ll go around first. Just to look around,” I added with a small smile.“Do you want me to come with you?”“I think you should go for yours,” I said.“Hmmm, okay then. See you later.” she said quickly, walking away with her designer bag dangling.I walked slowly through the school halls. First, the m

Tessa as Elena’s POVBack in school, Bella and I strolled through the hallway, chatting about the girl who had proposed to her crush and got rejected in front of the entire music room. Just as I turned to enter our classroom, I suddenly collided with someone at the doorway.A sharp thud echoed as something dropped to the floor.I looked up quickly and recognized her from Elena’s old photos and the profile of every student I’d checked online.It was Lucy."I'm so sorry," I blurted, bending to pick up what had fallen—not a book, but a black tablet with a sleek black leather case. The initials L.W. were engraved in gold. She didn’t say a word. Just stared down at me like I was a roach.Her jaw clenched as she snatched the tab from my hands. “Watch where you’re going freak!,” she snapped, with a sharp voice.Then she walked past us without looking back, the heels of her ankle boots clicking across the tiled floor.I stood there, stunned. “Wow,” I muttered.“That’s Lucy Westworth ,” Bella

Bella’s POVI gasped when I saw Elena kissing Zane in public.I wasn’t expecting to see her like that.“This is getting interesting,” Emris said, walking up to me with a grin.Has she started regaining her memory? I wondered to myself. Elena used to be very cold and strict, only soft to her close friends. It still surprises me—the change in her ever since the accident.“She’s back,” I whispered, smiling.“Let’s go meet her,” I said, and we both walked toward her.***It was Sunday morning. As usual, I had to go golfing with Dad. I got dressed early and waited in the foyer.Then, she walked up to me.“Golfing with Dad?” she asked, faking concern.“That should be none of your business, right?” I said, rolling my eyes.“Bella, when are you going to accept me?” my stepmother pressed with that same pitiful tone.“This is all pretense,” I snapped. “I know you’re only here for my dad’s money. So take what you need and leave when you're done pretending.” Just then, I saw my dad coming down the

Adrian's POV"I will miss you, brother," Michelle said as the car came to a halt in front of the airport.I gave her a small nod. "Be a good girl, okay.""Okay."Then she pulled me in for a hug.As I drove home, memories from Kade’s birthday flooded my mind—Elena kissing Zane in public. And I felt anger rise in my chest.She had humiliated me and made me look like a fool.I didn’t understand what she was trying to prove that day.Then I dialed Lucy’s number. She picked up on the first ring."Adrian," she said, surprised. I rarely called anyone."Can you come over to the house?""Yes," she answered, almost too eagerly.I ended the call and turned into our estate, pulling into the driveway.***"Adrian?" Lucy called as she entered and looked around nervoursly.I came down the stairs slowly."I thought something happened to you," she said, eyeing me suspiciously.She wore a white short dress and tiny heels, looking flashy as always."Nothing happened. I just wanted to ask about something
