Lahat ng Kabanata ng Heiress Hidden Obsession : Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

The next morning came too quickly for me. I had barely slept. Every time I closed my eyes, I heard my father's voice from the night before. His words had followed me through the darkness until dawn. But with the first rays of sunlight spilling through the tall glass windows of the Davidson mansion, something inside me had changed. The anger was still there, but beneath it was something deeper. Hurt. My father was still my father. Before I accepted that he had truly chosen his empire over my happiness, I needed to know one thing. Was there still a piece of the father who had once carried me on his shoulders? I dressed simply and walked down the long corridor toward his private quarters. Each step felt heavier than the last. When I reached his door, I stood there for several seconds. Then I knocked softly. There was no answer. I slowly pushed the door open. He stood beside the window, adjusting his cufflinks. He was already dressed in a perfectly tailored dark suit, every detail of h

By eight-thirty, Father was already dressed for work. He never changed his routine, stepping out in his crisp suit, polished shoes, and that same controlled expression he wore every morning. Before leaving, he stopped outside my bedroom and knocked twice. “Lucy.” I was awake, even though I had barely slept. “Yes, Father?” “I’m heading to the office. Remember, you have a date with Julian today. Be there by ten. You’ll meet him at the office.” My chest tightened at Julian’s name. I pulled the blanket higher, pretending his words didn't affect me. A date with Julian was the last thing I wanted, and after everything Father had said yesterday, I knew there was no point arguing. But the moment he mentioned the office, a thought pushed its way into my mind. Another chance to See Brian. I quickly buried it. “Alright, Father.” His footsteps faded down the hallway. I waited until I heard the front door close before getting out of bed. “Let him think he won,” I whispered. By nine-thirty,

I woke to the feeling of someone touching my boobs. My eyes remained closed for a moment. I was still trapped between sleep and reality, caught in the dream I'd been having. “Brian…” I whispered sleepily. “You came?” Before I could fully wake up, I felt someone lean closer. Still lost in the dream, I lifted my arm, wrapped it around his neck, and pulled him toward me. My lips touched his. Then something felt wrong. I opened my eyes. My heart stopped. It wasn't Brian. It was Julian. I screamed and immediately scrambled backward until my back hit the headboard. “What are you doing in my room?” Julian stared at me. “I waited for you at your father's office,” he said. “You never showed up, so he ordered me to come here and check on you.” I stared at him in disbelief. “You came into my bedroom?” “When I arrived, the door was slightly open.” His eyes moved over me. “You were barely covered. Your clothes had shifted, and you were exposed.” My stomach twisted. “So you thought t

**BRIAN'S POV** The glass doors of Davidson Industries opened at exactly eight-thirty. I was at the logistics desk when my boss-Arthur Davidson walked into the lobby. The entire atmosphere changed. Employees straightened. Conversations died. People quickly moved out of his way as he crossed the lobby with the authority of a man who owned everything beneath the roof. “Good morning, everyone!” His voice echoed across the glass walls. I looked up. Arthur was smiling. Not his usual controlled business smile. A genuine one. “Today is my daughter's birthday,” he announced. “The moment Lucy arrives, corporate work stops. We're celebrating.” A wave of excitement moved through the lobby. I almost smiled. So it was Lucy's birthday. I already knew she was turning twenty, but hearing Arthur announce it made the day feel different. His gaze moved across the lobby. Then it stopped on me. “Brian.” I immediately stepped away from the desk. “Sir.” “Come with me.” I followed him upstairs to the

The golden noon sun beat down on the glass facade of Davidson Industries, but inside the executive suite, the atmosphere was suffocating.Arthur Davidson paced his mahogany-lined office, glancing at his Rolex. 12:00 PM."Where is she?" he muttered, a deep line etching between his brows.Today was Lucy’s twentieth birthday. Arthur had decided she would celebrate the first half of the day with her staff at the company before moving on to a formal evening reception with wealthy friends and fellow CEOs. The board, the media, and the senior staff were already gathered to mark the milestone.At the Davidson mansion, Lucy was ready. She stood before her floor-length mirror, adjusting the custom-tailored, vibrant pink flare gown she had commissioned months ago for this day. The silk nipped perfectly at her waist, cascading into a voluminous flare. She tied a matching silk ribbon into her hair, smiled at her reflection, and looked breathtaking.Back at headquarters, the clock ticked to 12:30 P
