AVA’s POINT OF VIEW“You’re really going to make me do it again, aren't you?” my voice shook with a mix of outrage and desperation. “You’re going to make me get rid of this one too”Logan’s expression turned cold, his eyes narrowing. “I'm not making you do anything, Ava. I'm just suggesting what's best for both of us”“Best for both of us? You mean best for you, Logan. Best for your reputation, your business, your perfect little world”Logan took a step closer, his voice low and even. “Ava, we've been over this. You know why we can't have a child right now, right? My mother..”“Yes, I know. Because I'm just your chef, your employee. Not your partner, not your equal,” my voice was shaky “Just a convenience for you to use and discard, don't try to use your mother as an excuse again. You tricked me the first time but not again”The tension between Logan and me was intense, but I wasn't ready to back down. Enough with his games playing me like I am a fool. “That's not fair, Ava,” Logan

LUCAS’S POINT OF VIEW“Sir, we need to leave, we have had a very rough and exhausting journey, you need to rest, sir”One of my guards said while looking directly at me. I looked at the operating room and the light was still on. ‘Should I leave now? Maybe check back later.’ I asked myself quietly.I dropped all my details with a nurse, and then I left with guards. When I got home I could not stop thinking about the lady. Why would she be lying unconscious on the road under the rain and bleeding profusely? Did she get run over by a car, or could have happened? When I came out of the shower my phone rang, and I quickly answered it thinking it was from the hospital.. “Lucas, I have great news”“Who is this?” “Tom.. Tom fontane.. You put me in charge of looking for your mother, remember?”“Oh.. So how is it going?” I said and ran my hands through my hair. “I am sorry, sir, but I think your mother got married to another man, after abandoning you..”“What do you mean abandon? Did I ever

AVA’s POINT OF VIEW(ONE MONTH LATER/ AUSTRALIA)Lucas held my hand as we both walked into the hospital and then he stopped and asked me. “Are you sure about this, Ava? I know that I suggested it, but you don't have to do it if you don't want to” “I want to do it, sir, we have come this far.. You brought me here to Australia with you after our agreement, so I am in for anything”He nodded, and we walked to the surgeon's office. After a while, a nurse was told to dress me up, and I lay down waiting for the surgeon, while Lucas kept staring at me with concern in his eyes. Doctor. Park entered the room, a warm smile on his face. He leaned forward, his eyes locked on Mine."Ava, I want to make sure I understand your goals. You're not just looking to repair the damage, but to change your appearance entirely?"I nodded, tears almost dropping from my eyes. "Yes, Doctor. I want to look different. I want a new face, a new identity."Lucas's grip on my hand tightened, his expression concerne

AVA’s POINT OF VIEWI kept staring at her angrily. I wish I could slap her hard on her face as I was very filled with rage. “You are putting on the exact opposite of what you just described! I think you have been talking about yourself, lady. Do you know my husband?”She laughed a little too loud and honestly, it was disgusting watching her open her mouth to laugh that way. Lucas’s guards walked to me and asked if something was wrong. I looked at the lady and she immediately looked innocent like she was scared. I told the guards that everything was fine. I mean what was I supposed to say, right? They walked away and she sighed out of relief.She moved close and whispered into my face.“I thought you would tell them that I was disturbing you.. I am surprised”“Oh, I see. You expected me to tell the guards so they would call Lucas, right? Why do you want to see him? Well, sorry to disappoint but this is my wedding, and no one will ruin it for me, lady”I walked away and I could still f

AVA’s POINT OF VIEWWe both showered and said Goodnight to each other. At first, I was scared to sleep on the same bed with Lucas but he has been very good to me anyway so I didn't let it bother me. And I made sure not to think about anything wrong with Lucas. We both got on the bed and he turned to the other side while I stared up at the sky. The whole house was bigger and better than Logan’s house. The room had a television fronting directly to the bed and the air conditioner made the room very dark.The room had a scent of vanilla mixed with strawberry. The air in the room was so soothing and relaxing while I was still scanning around the room with my eyes. I heard Lucas snoring softly, and I giggled a bit. He must have been so tired after the day's stress.I turned off the lights and slept off too.After about an hour deep into my sleep, I kept feeling like someone was trying to hold and pull me by force. It felt like a stronghold and when I turned around to look at the person’s f
