Chapter 21

Elena couldn’t focus on anything when she got back to the office and she couldn’t wait to speak to the private investigator, to tell him all that she had found out. Throughout the drive home, all she kept thinking about was the phone call. An Anderson was in contact with Aaron. The problem was that she couldn’t even begin to guess who it was. They had all shown that they cared about her and wouldn’t let anything happen to her. Yet, one of them had betrayed her. She had barely reached her room when she dialed the private investigator’s number. He picked up on the first ring, almost as though he had been waiting for her call. This time, it was a video call, but he didn’t turn on his camera. Elena frowned. “Hello?” His voice came through, low and calm. “I’m here.” Something about his tone always unsettled her. It seemed controlled. Almost as though he chose his words carefully before he spoke them. She sank onto the couch. “I need to tell you something.” “I’m listening.” She

Chapter 22

His laughter reminded Elena of a warm morning. It was the first time that she was hearing him laugh and she liked the sound of it. “Rest up, Miss Thompson. Tomorrow’s going to be a long day.” It sounded like a threat and just as she was about to ask, he ended the call. When Elena woke up that morning, the first thing she thought about was the missing file and the fact that someone had been in her room. She let out a deep sigh. It had taken a long while for her to fall asleep as she couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that she was in danger. Who knew what they would do to her if they found out that she was still investigating. A soft knock came from the door and she sat up immediately, pulling the sheets closer. She hoped that it would be the private investigator. She couldn’t understand his mysterious personality. “Come in,” she called. She had gotten a suite and Greg had stayed in the adjoining room. The door opened quietly and Greg stepped in. He was already dressed in a

She moved closer, pretending to admire the city view, but her eyes moved back to the file. The words were unmistakable. ‘Adaptive consumer segmentation model Phase-three cosmetic expansion protocol Premium packaging algorithm’ Her heart rate sped up. That was hers, every single one of them. Elena’s fingers curled tightly around her purse. She knew those terms because she created them years ago. The year before she got married to him. She had sleepless nights and had once stayed up until dawn building that exact expansion strategy for Aaron’s cosmetics division. Back then, he had barely glanced at it. He will tossed the papers aside and said, “Leave the business decisions to people who understand business.” Yet here it was, in his office, on a file that was obviously in use. Aaron noticed her expression. “Marilyn, what is it? Are you okay?” Elena forced a smile and it hurt. “Nothing. I was just admiring the view.” His eyes lingered on hers for a second before he nodded. “

Chapter 24

Aaron stared at her as though she had grown an extra head.She chuckled. “Come on, I just need you to put in a good word for me.”She had been more than excited when the private investigator agreed to help her and she vowed to do her own investigation, anyway she could find out which of her brothers had been talking to Aaron.She met him for dinner. This time, at his apartment and while they ate, she casually brought up the fact that she was having a hard time at work and needed him to help her speak to the Anderson brothers since he was close to them.He coughed and she passed him a glass of water. “I know you’re really close to them. Or at least one of them.”He shook his head. “That’s not true.”She nodded as she took a small sip of wine. “But I’ve seen you speak to him. You don’t have to act modest in front of me.”“You saw me speak to him?” He asked furrowing his brows. “Really?”She nodded. “I did.”She wondered when Aaron had become a good liar. He was so bad at lying that she

"...so I told them the expansion figures were unrealistic," Aaron was saying with a faint smile, his fingers loosely wrapped around his wine glass. "But eventually they came around."Aaron sat across from her in a dark tailored suit, looking every bit the polished businessman he was, or thought he was.He was talking to her and yet, Elena barely heard a word he was saying. She was certain that it was something about a new acquisition deal or a partnership.Or maybe it was one of his usual self-congratulatory stories about how he had “saved” the company from collapse.Elena honestly had no idea because while he talked, her mind was somewhere else entirely.Somewhere darker.They were out for dinner, the second time that week.This was a new place. An expensive restaurant that Elena was sure cost a whole lot of money. Elena took a small sip of water, hoping to drown out the voices in her head. The deep cold voice that frustrated and annoyed her so much. She couldn’t understand why sh

Elena shook her head and fell onto her seat.No! No! No!How was this possible? She had tried so hard to hide her identity and this strange man just happened to find out?Her voice was out barely above a whisper. “What did you just say?”She heard him chuckle from the other end of the phone. “I know it’s you.”The phone nearly slipped from her hand as she was shocked.Her breaths came out in ragged gasps. This was Impossible. She had been careful, really careful and nobody was supposed to know. She had altered her face, her hair and her eyes. Even her voice was different.Her mind raced with several thoughts. Then how was it that someone as mysterious as the private investigator who had never seen her. How?Has someone betrayed her?Her voice shook as she spoke. “What are you talking about?”His voice was calm as he answered. “You’re Elena Anderson, formerly Elena Calvalli.”Her eyes darted instinctively towards the door of her office.Her voice cracked. “No.”A soft exhale came from

Elena stayed still for a while, her mind racing with several thoughts. They were not going to be happy if they heard that she had been entertaining Aaron. “Elena?” Ethan sounded like someone was choking him. He was still at a loss as to what was happening. She let out a shaky breath and suddenly tears began to drop from her eyes. “I don’t know who to trust anymore!” Her voice broke on the last word. The brothers froze. Tears ran freely down her face now. Her hands shook as she pressed them against the edge of the table. “I almost died,” her voice trembled. “Someone tried to kill me.” She continued. “Then someone inside the company starts moving money around and making it look like it’s me.” She looked at each of them, pain flashing in her eyes. “And then I find out that one of you is talking to Aaron?” She wip

Chapter 28

Elena smiled as she thought about what the private investigator had told her that morning.She had managed to leave her brothers, promising to see a doctor later in order to assure them that she was fine.He had assured her that he would call her when she left the office and she wished the time to go faster.Apparently, he didn’t tap into her phone, he had only watched her go into the Anderson’s estate and was sure that she would want to tell them about the will.“You seem to be in a good mood today, Miss Thompson.”She glanced up to see Mr. Rhodes smirking as he watched her. She felt repulsed at that, wondering how long he had been watching her.“How long have you been here, Mr. Rhodes?” She narrowed her eyes at him. He was a stalker and it was annoying.“Long enough to see you giggling like a sixteen year old who just had her first boyfriend.”She wondered why she had thought that D Seers was th

“I hate it when someone interferes with my job, Elena.”She closed her eyes and listened as he began to recount how the doctor had called him about how she stormed out of the room as though she was being chased.“I don’t want to go through with that right now,” she said finally and sat up straight.She had gotten home about ten minutes ago, thinking about her next move, because revealing herself now would prevent her from finding out the person behind the accidents and threats.“What’s going on?” He sounded concerned. “I need you to find something for me,” she said, letting out a deep sigh. There was a brief pause on the other end. “You sound as though you’ve discovered something.”“I have,” she replied. “And If I go through with the reconstructive surgery to look like my old self, I would never be able to find out who wants me dead.”“Tell me.”“There’s a clause in my father’s Will,” she said, l

Chapter 30

Elena moved quietly, her heels barely making a sound against the polished floor as she trailed behind Tiffani at a safe distance.Tiffani walked quickly and turned down a corridor that Elena had only seen once. It had a restriction sign on it and was away from the offices where everyone else used. Elena had never bothered to ask what it was used for. She furrowed her brows as she watched Tiffani and then slipped behind the corner just before Tiffani could turn back, pressing herself tightly against the wall.Then she peeked and saw that Tiffani had stopped and she wasn’t alone.Elena’s palm flew to her mouth to stifle a gasp. Mr. Rhodes.He stood a few feet away from her, his usual easygoing expression completely gone. He looked like he was just a few seconds away from exploding. Tiffani, on the other hand, looked furious. Her arms were crossed, her chin lifted as she spoke, gesturing around with her hands.She leaned closer to make out what they were arguing about.“What do you m
