The Broken Ring: Rewriting the Illegitimate Heiress' Fate Chapter 41: Reminiscence: It's Even Worse Than I Thought It Was
"Lacey! Where are you going this time?" My eyes automatically rolled when that irritating voice invaded my space again."Out. Duh…" I blurted out while packing my things, not giving a damn in anything she said. For sure, it'd be the same old lecture blah blah blah~"You wench! You can't just waltz out of here without permission! Your father sent you here for work, not for leisurely trips!"Ugh. This woman is so damn annoying!With a forceful push of my luggage, I turned towards her with my hand on my waist, giving her a glare."So? What are you gonna do about it? Snitch on me, again?""I'll gladly do so! Your father–""Here we go again. Your father blah blah blah~ hold on…what are you, my mother?" I gave a sarcastic laugh. This bitch was startled by what I just said. That's right. Bitch needs to learn her place."Oh? Cat got your tongue? Let me just remind you, Agatha, you're my father's SECRETARY. Not my stepmother or anything, okay? Got that clear on that tiny, little brain of your

"C'mon bro. Brighten up. Don't be such a killjoy.""I can't man. Lia's waiting for me.""Tsk. Is it just me or the moment you married that woman, you ceased going to parties, hmm? Just what did you see with that woman?" I sighed in frustration before rolling my eyes. Damn it, this question, again?"Even if I list it for you, you won't get it, Hiro." I tried to get up and leave but this fucker just kept pulling back to sit. I wanted to get home fast. I want to break the news to Lia. To celebrate with her at home…I'm sure she'd be delighted when she hears about the big deal I just closed earlier. Ever since that guy passed away, Dad had no other choice but to leave all his work to me. I mean, who else would be qualified to take over? I know he was hesitant at first but I just needed to prove to him that he was wrong. That I am more capable than he initially thought.I admit, things got busier. I rarely come home and surely, Lia's lonely at home. Lacey isn't in the city to keep her com

"I'll be gone for a while." I almost spat my coffee when Lia broke the silence between us. We were having breakfast, as usual when suddenly, she opened up the topic of leaving.This is the first time she asked something like this. We were inseparable. Yet, the way she spoke, there was something in her voice. It was rather…cold.That petrified me for a bit."Gone? Wh-where are you going? And…for how long?" Shit. Does she know?"Don't worry. It'll just be for 5 months." "Just 5 months?! That long?! Where…?" I blurted out erratically, my voice almost dissipated into thin air.Damn it…is she…leaving me..?Just the thought of it made my heart ache. Before I could respond, she smiled sweetly. Gone was the slight coldness I heard from her."Don't worry. Sammy will take me out on a vacation. My grandfather gave him some free time and he wants to spend it with me. Pretty please? I miss him so much." she pleaded before reaching for my hand."Mr. Samuel, as in your family's butler?...Okay fine

"It makes you want to throw up, right? I feel you, Rue. But instead, it's not the cake that's the problem here.""Lia…? w-what are you–" he sounded so confused, making me break in a dry laugh."It's so damn disgusting, Rue. Like my entire system wanted to reject it…to reject you. To throw you up so I'll feel better and think that this is all just a nasty nightmare." "Oh yeah, we made a promise, right? Do not keep secrets to each other. Turns out, I lied. I've felt…so disgusted whenever you come near me yet here I am, still drawn to you…" Every piece of me broke in just a span of months. I thought it has ended but looks like there's still some of me left to break."Lia..I-I…" Meeting his gaze, expression twisting in shock, I almost fell for it again. The face I just imagined by trailing my hands on them, feeling each corners. I finally saw it. That handsome face of his. At first, I thought I was lucky, but it was neither his face nor his body that made me fell in love with him. It wa

"Here. Have a drink.""Thanks.""Has she calmed down?" "Yeah. Feel asleep. As I expected, the cold got to her. Remind me to stop by at the supermarket later. She needs some porridge when she wakes up." I sighed in frustration. It didn't take a while for Lia to cry herself to sleep. It seemed she finally let the fatigue and stress get to her. Leaving her in my bedroom, I transferred to the living room to finish up a few documents and workload. Limwel, who stayed in the same presidential suite as I am, looked confused."Uhm…and you're gonna cook?" My temple immediately creased at his sarcastic question.This secretary of mine is seriously getting on my nerves these past few days."Why? You don't trust me?" I took off my glasses and was about ready to fight. I thought he'd be intimidated but oh boy, this man just closed his eyes and shook his head, even went so far as to bring his forefingers in a crisscross.Seeing his nonchalant attitude, I felt my head twitching."Nope. Not at all.

"Would you like to hear a story, Ms. Lianna Smith?" Eridessa Joseph leaned forward, her hands clasping with her chin resting on top of it. Her mocking eyes looked intently on me, causing me complete discomfort."No thanks. I got to go." I don't need to hear anymore. If I stay here any longer, I don't know what I'll do. I might regret it. Putting the bill on the table, I hurried to grab my things and stood, yet I stopped in my tracks when she sighed, leaning backwards before calling for the waiter."That's a pity. I think you'd be delighted to hear what I'm about to say." My mind wanted to close shut, annoyed by the presence of this woman. However, my heart and my body remained still, stoned in anticipation of what she had to say. Taking a gracious sip on her tea, she started storytelling something."Once upon a time, there was a girl who dreamed of having everything. It was a simple wish of an innocent child. Who wouldn't dream of such a grandeur life? Yet, ever since she came to th

"W-what? What's all this…?" With shaky hands, I turned to face the person I considered as my second father. Yet, he just pulled his pipe and smoked, complacently, as he took a seat on the one-seater leather sofa. Even Natalia Kilmer seemed confused at first, like she wasn't informed about it. Yet, realizing what it meant, her frown immediately brightened up, turning to into a joyful smile."You're no longer blind, right? So, read it quick and sign. I don't have time for your shallow mumblings." Bernard Kilmer signalled to one maid. One of them suddenly moved towards me, giving me…a fountain pen.They're really intent on breaking me. Facing back at the papers in my hand, I froze, seeing a familiar signature…beside my name…He signed it…I sighed, defeatedly.That pleading act of yours and that heartbroken expression you wore as you knelt in front of me…that was all a lie. An act of a scheming victim…You say you wanted to bring me back yet here you are, conniving with your parents to

"Lacey!""What's with the screaming, Limwel? Shut it. You're noisy.""You better come see this…" Sensing the urgency in Limwel's voice, Lacey got up and went to the living room. We were back at her hotel and here I am, sulking at her bedroom now.My body feels so weary. I wanted so much as to sleep it off yet my senses were restless, curious on the seriousness on Limwel's voice earlier.Getting up and walking towards the door, I opened it slightly, so as not to catch their attention. They were watching something on the television with their backs against me."Mrs. Natalia Kilmer. Is the rumors regarding your son's infidelity true?" Suddenly, a voice
