Love, lies and, secrets 96. Pretense
ALICEIt would be an understatement to simply say that I was hurt. I wasn't just hurt and heartbroken, I also felt like my entire life has been a lie because the people that I cared about the most didn't seem to care about me just as much as I cared about them and they were capable of doing something so horrible to me without even showing any sort of remorse. The fact that one of the people that hurt me was my sister and the other my husband made everything even more complicated for me because they were the last people that I would have thought would do something like this to me and I sometimes you can't believe that they're hurting me like this and making me feel like a complete idiot. I've had to pretend like I was okay and act like everything was perfectly fine with me even when my entire world was pitch black and I felt very lost and confused. I didn't plan on pretending to lose my memory initially but when I woke up and saw my parents and Alejandro standing side-by-side, it j
Love, lies and, secrets 97. Smile
ALICE"Alice," I heard Anna call out my name and I had to quickly switch my facial expressions and continue to pretend to be happy and unaware. 'What are you doing out here sweetie? Why are you outside?" she questioned with a worried look on her face and I mentally rolled my eyes at how fake she was. "Don't you think you should stay indoors instead of staying outside by this time of the night? Or were you perhaps looking for me?" she asked. Anyone that saw the look on her face right now would think that she was a genuinely kind person that cared about me but little did they know that she was behind every miserable thing that was happening in my life right now and she was the most selfish and ungrateful human being that I've ever met in my entire life."I wasn't looking for you out here silly. If I wanted to see you I would have gone straight to your room. I only came out here because I wanted to gaze at the stars and enjoy the lovely evening," I clarified to her with a fake smile p
Love, lies and, secrets 98. Her friend
ALICEI was already too deep in my plan for revenge and there was no turning back for me at this point. I intended on going all out with everything until I made sure that I did everything that needed to be done and I had no intention of leaving them alone until I was satisfied. It kind of hurts me that things had to come to this because I would have never imagined that I would ever be in a situation where I would be plotting against my own family but seeing how they've hurt me continuously without any remorse, I no longer feel guilty about doing the same thing to them because they deserved it. "How are you feeling?" my friend Allison asked. Allison Gentry and I have been friends since back in college and she was a psychologist. I met up with her a week after I was discharged from the hospital because I felt like I needed to speak to someone and ever since I met with her, I have been getting help from her. I explained the entire situation to her about how my husband and my sister
Love, lies and, secrets 99. Her plan
ALICE "You already set up a way to deal with Anna but how do you plan on doing with Alejandro? You still haven't spoken about how you intend to pay him back and I'm curious to know what you want to do," Allyson said and I smiled. "Well, Alejandro forgot that I know absolutely everything about him and I'm fully aware that he has issues with his family and that his stepbrother wants to take everything from him. Dealing with him is easy because all I have to do is support his enemy and get everything taken away from him and that would be my way of paying him back in his own coin," I responded. It took me a while to think of what to do with Alejandro but then I recalled that he was very intimidated by the fact that he suddenly had a stepbrother somewhere and he was also afraid of losing a part of the properties to his brother. I intended to support his brother and get him to lose everything and I would also have something to gain at the end of everything. "I just want you to put in mi
Love, lies and, secrets 100. Anger
ALICEI hate them so much. I hate them with every fibre of my being and I'm going to make sure that I do everything possible to hurt them and make them pay for humiliating me and making me feel incompetent. I was currently watching Anna and Alejandro make out and I clenched my fist in anger as the feeling of betrayal and deceit suddenly overwhelmed me and made me feel like a fool. I'm pretty sure that they think that they can get away with all of this because judging by the looks on their face, they feel like they've done everything to make sure that I won't ever get my memory back so that they can be together but what they do know is that I'm going to destroy them in ways that they won't even expect and I'm also going to make sure that for every tear I shed, they shed more tears very soon. I walked away from the scene and decided to head to my bedroom so that we wouldn't notice the look on my face because I don't think that I can hide my anger for too long. What makes the situati

ALICE TO KELVIN: I can never know unless I try so don't you think that I should at least make an attempt instead of assuming it's never going to work?FROM KELVIN: What about your parents Alice? Are you going to finally tell them what is going on? Do you intend to keep doing everything on your own without them knowing what's happening?When I saw him ask that question, I paused for a while because I had a lot to think about. As much as I didn't like the fact that I was lying to my parents, I knew that I had to do this without their knowledge because they were not going to support my plans to take revenge and I didn't want them to emotionally blackmail me into forgiving Anna.TO KELVIN: I have no intentions of telling them anything because I don't want them to try to get me to forgive anyone. I can't and I won't forgive. FROM KELVIN: Hold on a second, let me call you. As soon as I read the text, his call came in and I picked it up without hesitation. "I don't know if it's appropri
Love, lies and, secrets 102. The place
ALICEI arrived at the location given to me by Allyson and I wore a hat to hide my face to an extent so that Alejandro and Anna wouldn’t notice me. I don't think I've ever done anything like this before so I was partly nervous but at the same time, I was very excited because everything was finally starting to play out the way I wanted and I couldn't wait to see how it would all end. "Finally, Alice. Took you long enough to show up," Allyson said as soon as she saw me, pulling a seat back for me to sit."Hi," a petite blonde lady greeted me with a small smile playing on her lips and it was only after she greeted me that I noticed she was seated beside Allyson. I would be lying if I said that she didn't look good because she most certainly did and she fits perfectly into the type of woman Alejandro would like, even though I'm no longer sure what type of woman he liked. "Hi," I greeted back, trying not to make it obvious that I was nervous. "You look very familiar, Miss, and I feel
Love, lies and, secrets 103. A deal
ALICE "First and foremost, how much are we talking about and do I have to start immediately after this?" she asked. "How much do you want?" I asked. A smug look formed on her face. "You can't be assured that once I set my mind on something, I always get it done no matter what it is so here's how I want to get paid. If I can able to get him to look at me and want to start up a conversation with me, then I'm going to be getting at least five thousand dollars but if I'm able to also get him to call me back and keep in contact with me, then I want to get a total of ten thousand dollars," she replied. I can't deny the fact that the amount she was asking for was quite huge and even though it wasn't a problem for me to give her that, I need to make sure that she was asking people as she looked because she sounded very confident and I wouldn't mind giving her that much money if she's able to get things done for me. "I'm going to pay you as much as you want , but you're going to have to p
