YILENA POVLaura ended the call with a satisfied smirk, oblivious to my presence. I was rooted to the spot, my heart racing with fear and anger.Everything made sense now.The sudden appearance, the convenient memory loss, and the strained relationship dynamics. The real Laura was dead, and this imposter sister of hers, whom none of us knew existed, was here to wreak havoc and exact revenge.I had to warn Jenna and Keith, but I couldn't just burst in and tell them without proof. I needed to gather evidence, and I needed to do it quietly. I was just about to leave but had to duck into the bushes when I noticed Nicola was coming. She met with Laura just as Laura ended the phone call and hid the phone itself.I can't believe that bitch has been playing us all. Even as smart and conniving as Big Mama is, she still fell for the act too.I wonder what she must have told them to convince them that a person like Laura was capable of wanting Keith to return to being his mother's ultimate wea
YILENA POV"Jenna, are you okay?" Yilena asked, her voice trembling as she tossed the broken vase aside and knelt next to me.I nodded, still in shock from the sudden violence. "I... I think so. Just a little cut." I answered, checking to see the tear on my inner thigh, it must have been caused by the edge of the table."We need to get you out of here," she said urgently, glancing at Keith's unconscious form. "It's not safe."I struggled to my feet, my body shaking. "Yilena, thank you. But what about Keith? What if he wakes up and...?"Yilena looked at Keith with concern in her eyes but shook her head, "Leave him there. Jenna, there's something I have to tell you."But before Yilena could say a word, the door to the study opened and Laura and Nicola walked in."Oh my God, Keith!" Laura exclaimed, rushing to Keith who was still on the floor, her eyes scanned the floor which was covered in broken pieces of the vase before she turned to me, "What did you do to him?!" she screamed."Jenna

JENNA POVYilena's grip on the steering wheel tightened, her face paling. She put the phone on speaker, and I recognized the voice on the other end even though I wasn't too familiar with him. It was Richard."Richard, calm down," Yilena said, trying to keep her voice steady. "Where is Keith now?""He's tearing the mansion apart looking for Jenna and sent some men out to search for her in all the safehouses! What the hell happened?! Nicola said Jenna had a miscarriage!" Richard's voice was frantic."We had to get out of there. Jenna was in danger," Yilena replied, glancing at me with concern. "Listen, you need to stall him. Tell him she was taken to the hospital and is in critical condition. Make him believe she's still there."Richard paused the sound of his heavy breathing filling the car. "Alright, I'll do what I can. But Yilena, if he finds out—""He won't," Yilena interrupted. "Just keep him busy. We don't have much time.""Send an aeroplane to Aust Airport. I have an idea of how
YILENA POVWe quickly boarded the second plane, my heart pounding with a mixture of fear and determination. Richard took the pilot's seat, while I settled into the back, preparing the parachutes and planting Jenna's dress in the plane. Everything had to look convincing.The engine roared to life, and as we taxied down the runway, I glanced out the window, hoping our plan would succeed. Richard's voice came over the intercom, tense but controlled. "We're about to take off. Ready?""Ready," I replied, my voice steady despite the adrenaline coursing through me.The plane lifted off the ground, and as we climbed higher, I double-checked the parachutes and ensured everything was in place. Richard began the distress signal after five minutes in the air, his voice urgent and convincing as he reported engine failure and a possible crash landing."We're approaching the designated area," he said over the intercom. "Get ready."I took a deep breath, securing the parachute straps around me. "Let'
I sat alone at a cosy corner table in my favourite café, my fingers tapping nervously against the smooth surface. I arrived early, eager to see my boyfriend, Raphael, after what felt like an eternity apart. He had planned to meet for coffee, but he's the one reaching late. Or, will he even make it?I kept looking at the time on my phone but a part of me only waited for a phone call from Raphael where he would say he couldn't make it.I'm used to him not making it to our dates most. It wouldn't make a difference if the same thing repeats today but I want to see him this time.As the minutes ticked by, my anticipation mingled with a growing sense of unease. I glanced at my phone, checking the time repeatedly, each passing moment stretching into an eternity.Finally, after what felt like forever, the café door swung open, and Raphael hurried in, his expression apologetic as he approached my table. "I'm so sorry, Jenna. Traffic was a nightmare," he said, his voice tinged with genuine remo
I thought I had the confidence but as soon as I walked into the club, I ran out of it.I struggled to calm my fast-beating heart when I received a phone call from my stepsister."Hello?""Jenna, where are you?" Sarah asked, "And what's with your breathing? Are you alright? Talk to me.""Sarah, he... He's marrying someone else." I answered, trying not to cry over my make-up."Who? What are you talking about?" I hesitated to speak, "Jenna, calm down, where are you now?" Sarah asked frantically."I'm at the Elite Club," I answered."I'll come get you.""No! Don't. I have to do this. It's the only way I know I'll get my revenge.""Jenna you're confusing me. Start from the top at least." Sarah urged, in a caring tone.As I poured out my heart to Sarah, the weight of my emotions lifted slightly.Sarah listened patiently, her voice a comforting presence, "I can't believe he would do something like this to you, Jenna," she murmured, her tone tinged with disbelief and outrage."And you don't
The next morning, I woke up in a haze, my head throbbing with the aftermath of too many drinks. As my eyes fluttered open, the events of the previous night flooded back, sending a surge of panic coursing through me.I glanced around the unfamiliar surroundings, my heart sinking as reality set in. I was in a strange bedroom, tangled in disarrayed sheets, with no recollection of how I got there.Memories of the nightclub, the bet with Sarah, and Yohan's alluring presence swirled in my mind, leaving me with a sense of unease. Had I really gone through with the one-night stand?As if on cue, the door creaked open, and Yohan stepped into the room, his expression like that of shock. "Morning, sleeping beauty," he greeted, his voice laced with amusement as he approached the bed, "so he went through with it?""He?" I followed the gaze of Yohan and caught sight of another figure in bed with me, "wh- who's he?"Yohan scoffed, "Just someone who completed a bet among friends.""A... Bet?" I aske
