All Chapters of Rise Of The Hidden Heiress: Chapter 231 - Chapter 240

~Dominic~Except for the steady beeping of monitors and the occasional footsteps passing in the hallway outside, the hospital room I’m in remains quiet.Once news traveled to my family about my admission to the hospital, thanks to Tommy, who can't keep his mouth shut, my family arranged for me to be transferred to a private health facility at Westwood.It's been two days since I was moved here, and I'm yet to get as much as a call from Jess, even after instructing Tommy to text her my current address and let her know that I'm no longer at Silver Valley, and if she decides to visit me at Westwood, no one would know.I stare at the ceiling, counting the lines for what must have been the hundredth time today. The door opens, and my heart leaps with hope before immediately crashing back down when I see it is just one of the family heads of the pack coming to check on me.“Alpha Dominic,” he calls respectfully with a bow, and places a fruit basket on the side table. “The pack sends their

The actual meaning of her words hit me. Dominic had tried to kill himself? My wolf stirs uneasily within me, touched by Helena Hearst's words.But a little reminder of how the woman and her son humiliated us back at Westwood is all it takes to strengthen our resolve. “Mrs. Hearst,” I call in a firm voice, “I’m sorry about your son, but his actions are not my responsibility.”“Please,” she begs. “Just come see him. One visit. That’s all I ask. I swear on my life that no creature in this world would find out that you visited.”But I shake my head, my eyes hardening with resolve. “No. Dominic made his choices. And so did I. I’ve moved on, Mrs. Hearst. Tell him to do the same.”“You emotionless, wicked, and heartless-”I hang up before she can finish, my hand trembling slightly as I drop the phone back on my desk. Holding the edges of my desk a little too tightly, I take several deep breaths to steady myself.Dominic attempted suicide because of me. The thought keeps repeating in my mi

~Rhea~After several days indoors, Lucrous and I finally decide to step out of the house to get some real food.We’ve been relying heavily on the few snacks we got from the airport. Now that we’ve managed to stay under the radar for just enough number of days to shift attention away from us, Lucrous decides it's the right time to get acquainted with our surroundings, eat, and set up our small apartment, which costs a manageable sum as well.The house was arranged by one of Lucrous most trusted acquaintances, who also provided us with an old car that wouldn’t draw unnecessary attention our way.As we leave the store, the night air feels eerie against my skin as I walk briskly alongside Lucrous, carrying one of the shopping bags, with my wolf instincts screaming danger with each step we take. Something isn’t right. I can feel eyes on us, predatory and calculating, hidden among the buildings of the unfamiliar town.“Lucrous, I think someone is following us,” I whisper, unable to keep th

Gracie lets out a shaky breath, her fingers holding tight to mine.For a moment, there’s quiet, just her heavy breathing.Then, she whispers with trembling lips, “I wish they were here.”My chest tightens.“I wish the parents were here to see and experience their baby coming into the world…” she continues, her voice breaking.Tears slide down her face now.“I don’t even know why their absence hurts so much,” she admits softly. “But it does…”I sigh, regretting that I didn’t tell her about them all along. I'd been waiting for the green light from Lawyer Calista, which she gave me a couple of days ago, and I planned to speak to Gracie about them today, after her antenatal.But I guess the Moon goddess has better plans.“Gracie…” I call her, my voice gentler now. “The child’s parents,” I continue carefully. “We’ve found them.”Her brows pull together.“What?”“They came last week.”The room goes still. Even Stephanie shifts beside me, her surprise palpable.“You… you never told me,” Grac

~Jess~With Gracie’s case settled, I focus squarely on moving out of my apartment before Dominic Hearst gets back to start harassing me again.I’ve moved Gracie back to the home I put her in while she was pregnant and sent the home more money with the instruction to care for and pay attention to Gracie’s needs until she is strong, healthy, and stable enough for moving into the next phase of her life, which I will be helping her with.With Allister seriously busy with Pelton Oxad’s case, which seems to be looking bigger than we had quite thought, as lots of big names have now been roped into the case, I hired a discreet moving company affiliated with Allister and enlisted Stephanie’s to pack my belongings since Agnes and Ursula were busy.It took almost the whole day for Stephanie and me to finish parking. The next day, the movers took over.I watch the movers carefully carry the last of my suitcases toward the door. Though I’m eager to leave this place behind, something about closing
