Liora’s POV

“Sure, it’s fine. You don’t have to explain everything… it’s your private life,” I said, the words slipping out more casually than I intended.

“What private life?” Bianca’s small, puzzled voice interrupted.

My heart skipped.

What did I just say?

I quickly forced a smile. “No, Rora… I mean, we are Daddy’s private life, but he still has meetings to attend sometimes.”

“Oh…” she nodded slowly, accepting it with innocent logic.

“I’m going to miss Daddy… a little bit,” she added softly, r

  • STOLEN LEGACY: The Heiress's Revenge    The Lead

    Author's POVLucien sat quietly in the living room, a white bandage wrapped around one side of his face. Beside him, Bianca clung to his arm, her tiny fingers twisting nervously in her lap."I want to go home," she said in a trembling little voice.Lucien stared ahead without responding."I want to go home and see Mummy. She should be back by now."Her lower lip quivered as she lowered her head, trying hard not to cry.Stephanie walked into the room and immediately noticed Bianca's tearful face."She's still crying?" she asked softly as she sat down.Lucien remained silent as his stomach suddenly growled.Stephanie turned toward him. "How are you feeling?""Better," he answered quietly.She studied his face for a moment before asking, "Do you need anything?"As if answering for him, his stomach growled again, louder this time. Lucien instinctively pressed a hand against it."I'll be right back."A few minutes later, Stephanie returned carrying a tray of food and placed it in front of

  • STOLEN LEGACY: The Heiress's Revenge    In Your Arms

    Liora's POV"Who is he?" I asked, my voice laced with worry."He's working for a man named Lorenzo," Derek explained. "The same man who sponsored him throughout school and paid for everything."I nodded slowly.No wonder Mum had always said he was on a scholarship."But I still don't know what Lorenzo is involved in or what exactly Elian is doing for him." He sighed. "I have a feeling Mr. Gab might know."The engine roared to life, and the car sped out. A sudden thought struck me and I quickly turned to Derek."What if Mr. Gab gets attacked at the hospital now that we're leaving?" I asked anxiously.A reassuring smile crossed his face. "That's already under control."I frowned. "What do you mean?""I left Rafe there to watch over him."Relief instantly washed over me.Just then, Derek's phone lit up again.It had been ringing repeatedly, but he merely glanced at the screen before locking it without answering.Soon, we arrived home but the moment we stepped into the living room, I foun

  • STOLEN LEGACY: The Heiress's Revenge    Not Just A Doctor

    Liora's POVMy fingers tightened around the steering wheel as I sped down the road. Just then, a towering hospital building came into view.Without a second thought, I swerved into the emergency entrance.The moment the car came to a halt, I threw the door open."Nurse! Somebody help!" I cried, rushing to the passenger side.Within seconds, several nurses and paramedics hurried toward me, pushing a stretcher. They carefully lifted Mr. Gab from the passenger seat before wheeling him through the emergency doors.I stood frozen in the lobby, my heartbeat pounding against my ribs."Who could have done this to him?" I whispered, my voice barely audible.Several minutes later, the hospital's glass doors slid open as Derek strode inside, his eyes sweeping frantically across the lobby until they found me.Relief flickered across his face as he hurried over."What happened?" he asked, gently taking my trembling hands into his."My assistant called me," I replied, struggling to steady my voice.

    Derek's POV"I'll go see Elian myself," I said.Liora slowly raised a brow. "Are you sure?"I couldn't let her go again and give him another opportunity to fill her head with more lies."Yes." I rose to my feet. "I'll make him agree.""Derek," she called softly, and I turned to meet her gaze. "Please... keep it peaceful."A faint smile tugged at my lips. "I'll try my best."With that, I headed outside and slipped into the car. Pulling out my phone, I scrolled through my contacts before dialing Rafe, my assistant."Good morning, Boss," Rafe answered."I'll be away for a while. Handle everything at the company until I get back.""Boss... if you don't mind me saying this...""What is it?""The executives have started asking about you, Boss. Your absence is beginning to attract attention.”My expression hardened. "Rafe.""Yes, Boss?""I didn't ask for your opinion. Just do as I instructed.""...Understood, Boss."The call ended, and I turned to Cole. "Take me to the hospital.""Right away

    Liora's POV"That's not true... is it?" I asked, staring at him in disbelief.If he really did it... why would he admit it so proudly?"You should see the look on your face." He burst into a low chuckle. "I was only joking."A shaky breath escaped my lips. "You shouldn't joke about something like that."The amusement vanished from his face."The truth is... that bastard lied to you. My father died of cancer." He paused, drawing in a slow breath. "I still hate remembering those days."My stomach tightened."I'm sorry," I whispered. "I didn't mean to reopen old wounds.""No, it's alright." He gave me a faint smile. "You didn't know. Besides..." His gaze softened. "I'm just happy you trusted me enough to ask."He continued, "And about Aurora's mother... I've told you before. She never wanted the marriage."He's telling the truth."I shouldn't have gone to see him," I murmured. "I never meant to...""Shh."Derek gently placed a finger against my lips."Liora, I know this isn't easy... but

    Liora's POV"Whose phone is this?" Derek asked as he rose to his feet.My stomach lurched.What do I say now?"It's... it's..." I stammered, but the lie refused to come.His eyes searched mine. "Liora... is this your phone?"You can do this."The day I gave a stranger a ride... she accidentally left it in my car," I finally managed to say."A stranger?""Yes," I replied quietly, taking a tentative step closer.Without another word, he slipped the phone back into the bag and held it out to me.Really? He believed that?I hesitated before accepting it."Why did you go back to him?" he asked, his eyes fixed on mine.My fingers trembled around the bag.I sat down on the bed and placed it beside me."I wanted to find out if he truly had evidence... and whether I could pay him enough to let this whole thing die.""And you thought he would?" Derek asked, rising to his feet."There was no harm in trying," I murmured.But Elian's words continued echoing in my head. Derek turned to leave as pan
