"I'm the donor. I'm Type O," Nicholas was looking at me while saying those words. I was surprised to know that the reason why he rushed all the way here, was because he was willing to donate blood for Mama Lynette. I didn't expect that he would be kind to us like this. Honestly, ever since I experienced being rejected by William, and being bullied by his wife, Tessa, I almost thought that rich people were like that. They look down on people, and they think of themselves as superior to everyone. They don't care about other people's condition, as long as they could fulfill their selfish desires, they will continue using us. That's what was inside my head before listening to what Nicholas told me. With a stuttering voice, I asked him, "Are you sure about that?" "Vanessa, this is an emergency. I also don't have time to look for other donors, but myself. Why would I find others if I could donate on my own?" He asked while looking at me. I was speechless. I don't know what to say, but b
Mr. Hudson stared at me a few more seconds after what I said. "What did you say?" He asked again while looking at me. I looked straight into his eyes and gave him a serious expression. "I said, I'm ready to accept your offer." The Mendozas were being too much of what they did to me, and my family. First, they made me look like a person who doesn't deserve the best of life. Second, they snatched my chances in every company I try to apply to. Third, this one. They tried to take away the life of my mother. What more could it take for me to do my step? Seeing Mr. Hudson made me realize that this would be my chance to get back at the Mendozas for all the things they did to me. I know I've been a mistress, the other woman of a billionaire guy, but why do they think as if I was the only person who got involved with William? As far as I could remember, he had an affair with other women before I had my affair with him. For sure, he tried to hide their relationship from Tessa. It was just me
"Ms. Vanessa, I'm sorry but your mother died," The nurse said as soon as I answer the call. Everything instantly went blank after what she said. I was currently holding my drink when I heard what she said. Even though I got enough energy already since I ate and had some fresh air outside the hospital, I instantly felt weak. I looked at Nicholas. He was staring at me, and I could see that he was telling me something, but I don't understand what it was. Tears suddenly fell from my eyes while still holding my phone. I put down the phone weakly and didn't say another word. Nicholas gave me a confused look because of that. "Vanessa, what is it? Why are you crying?" He asked while looking at me in worry. "M... My mother... She died..." I said while stuttering. Nicholas immediately pulled me closer to him and hugged me. My head was leaning unto his shoulder while he was touching my back. I know that I was crying, but I don't have the strength to speak. My eyes were continuously crying,
As the rain starts, the priest sprinkled holy water on the top of my mother's coffin. Many people were surrounding the whole ceremony including our relatives. I contacted them as soon as I found out about my mother's death. Aunt Elizabeth panicked and rushed to my house after knowing what happened that very next day. I faced her all alone and didn't speak for a few seconds. She looked at me and just hugged me while crying. I could also feel that she was shocked to know the tragic news. "I'm sorry, Vanessa. I was not able to be with you during that time, but God knows how I mourn for my sister," She said with teary eyes as she looked at me. I just gave her a blank expression that time. She promised that she would help me process the papers for Mama Lynette's burial. The other things were secretly provided by Nicholas. He told me the last time we meet that he would help me, too. Now, I stand in front of my mother's coffin, staring at it for one last time. People started crying includi
I spent my day at the hospital after being bought by Nicholas since I had a fever from yesterday. The doctor also told me to rest first even though I also wanted to go home. I tried my best to leave, but the nurses of the hospital told me that Nicholas strictly told them not to let me. He even sent some food for me to eat. At first, I tried to ignore everything he sent for me, but the nurses tried their best to persuade me. I ate just a bit, but I ended up not finishing all of it. I remained lying in bed while staring at the ceiling. I can only hear the sound of the machine beside me, and the ticking of the clock. The nurses told me that Nicholas already left after sending me the things I need. Again, I'm alone in this suffocating place. The last time I got here was the time when I was still with Mama Lynette. But now, I'm here all alone without anyone to stay by my side. I stared at the ceiling and started thinking about random things. Am I going to be like this forever? Do I have t
After signing the agreement, I returned the paper to Nicholas who was smiling at me. He grabbed the paper from my hand and turned the pages of the agreement papers. "Have you read the things you need to do besides the changes you will undergo to? Those are important things, too," He said while looking at me. I instantly forgot about that because of the overflowing emotions in me. I wanted to officialize everything as soon as possible. "Looks like you haven't read it yet. I'll read it for you," He added. He cleared his throat and started reading everything. "Point 1: Be in a new identity where you could show yourself to people as a popular person excellent in business and artistry.Point 2: Gain the trust of the Mendozas.Point 3: Flirt with William Mendoza and make him fall for you, Point 4; Bring the Mendozas down." After reading all the things included in the agreement, he stopped and looked at me. "So, are you ready to do all those things?" He asked. "That's only four thing
The time we stayed at the hospital was a bit pressuring. I tried to listen to Nicholas and Dr. Melendez's conversation. They were really serious about their plans as if they already knew they would earn an excellent result. I also got to know who Dr. Melendez was. He also told me I should get used to his presence since he'll be my surgeon for the upcoming operation tomorrow and the following days to maintain my appearance. He's a very kind person. I felt comfortable dealing with him which I also think was very good. After a few hours of conversing with Dr. Melendez and familiarizing myself with what will happen for tomorrow, we finally decided to leave the hospital. Nicholas and I entered the car. I sighed while staring at the road when I realized that Nicholas was staring at me. So, I raised an eyebrow while looking at him. "What?" I asked. He smiled a bit and started the engine. "Do you want to go somewhere else first before we go back?" He asked. I looked at him confused about
After giving me a chance to be alone for a while when we visited the tombstones of my mother and son, we finally decided to leave the place. There were mixed emotions in me right now. The feeling of longing for the presence of my mother who is now lying dead under that cold ground. The feeling of bitterness of making me realize that I already lost two important people in my life just because of the Mendozas. And, there's a bit of happiness in me because Nicholas took care of the remains of my boy and managed to bury his body with my mother's. Now, he just gave me a complete inspiration of why I should continue and do this revenge against those people responsible for the death of my son, and my mother. I knew William had nothing to do with the accident I had when my son died. But, he's still responsible because he neglected us. He forgot that he still had a responsibility in the upbringing of my son. Now, I count on him to be blamed because of my loss. Hours passed, and just like what
