The Forgotten Heiress Chapter 71
My alarm rang loudly beside me, waking me up from my sleep.“It’s morning already,” I groaned and reached blindly across the bedside table for my phone until my fingers found it.The screen was unusually bright against my sleepy eyes.I rubbed my eyes slowly as I sat up and noticed an unread message from Dexter.My brows furrowed immediately.Who sends work messages this early in the morning?I yawned before opening it.There will be no work at the office today. The company is undergoing minor renovations, so all activities have been suspended. Work from home today.I read it twice just to make sure I wasn’t imagining things.Then I threw my head back onto the pillow.“Thank God.”I didn’t have to rush out of bed and run to the café to get Dexter’s breakfast order.This break was needed. I stretched lazily beneath the blanket.After another few minutes of enjoying the comfort of my bed, I finally forced myself up.I went through my usual morning routine.I swept my room.Made my bed.

“You asked to see me, sir?” I said as I walked into Dexter’s office.Dexter was already back behind his desk, flipping through a file as though the conversation I’d overheard had never happened.If I hadn’t heard those few sentences with my own ears, I would’ve believed nothing had happened at all.Madison, on the other hand, was still sitting comfortably in the chair opposite him, one leg crossed over the other while scrolling through her phone.The moment she saw me, she smiled before continuing to scroll.I returned a polite smile.“Mia,” Dexter looked up briefly.“Yes, sir?”He slid one file aside and picked up another.“I won’t be available for my three o’clock appointment.”I pulled out my notepad immediately.“Should I move it to tomorrow?”“No.” He shook his head. “Reschedule it for five o’clock instead.”“Alright, sir.”I quickly wrote it down.“Anything else?”“You can—”“Wait.”Madison suddenly interrupted him.She reached into her designer handbag and pulled out a cream-colo

I quietly closed Dexter’s office door behind me.What was wrong with me today?First, I almost exposed myself over a bottle of perfume.Then I somehow ended up asking Dexter questions about a woman from his past.And to make things worse…I was actually curious about the answer.I rubbed my forehead lightly.“Athena…” I muttered under my breath. “Focus.”Why was I so eager to know about that woman from his past?Was I hoping I was the girl he was talking about?I quickly shook my head. I was just curious.Nothing else.I made my way toward the staff pantry.Unlike Dexter, Madison didn’t look like someone who would ask for black coffee first thing in the morning.She seemed more like the orange juice type.I opened the refrigerator and stared at the different drinks arranged inside.Orange juice.Apple juice.Sparkling water.Different soft drinks were neatly arranged on the shelves.After standing there for almost a minute, I finally picked up a bottle of freshly squeezed orange juice

The elevator doors opened with a soft ding.I stepped out, balancing Dexter’s breakfast pack in my hands.“I wish I had slept more,” I whispered to myself as I walked toward his office.Blake and I came back home late yesterday after the twins’ entrance ceremony. He even had to spend the night at the cottage because it was too late for Jim to drive back home. He should be awake by now.On the other hand, I had to wake up early to come to work and get Dexter’s breakfast.I wondered if he was already at the office.Talking about Dexter…I remembered how embarrassing yesterday was.Hiding behind shopping bags.Running around with potato chips covering my face.Then somehow ending up glued to Dexter’s chest like a frightened koala.I squeezed my eyes shut for a brief second.“Oh God… I wish I could wipe yesterday out of my memory.”Dexter’s office window was open, which meant he was already inside.I glanced at the clock. He was early, though I wasn’t late either.I reached his office door

We pulled into a quiet picnic area just outside the main campus. Unlike the busy parts of the university, this place was peaceful. Only a few wooden tables and chairs sat beneath tall trees, and the evening breeze made everything feel calm. “This place is beautiful,” I murmured. “Told you,” June grinned. We got out and started unloading the coolers, shopping bags, drinks, and food. “Aww…”July’s eyes widened.“You actually brought all this?” “There’s no way we can finish everything,” June added I smiled.“The leftovers can go to your friends.” “Athena…”She hugged me again.“You’re the best.” A few minutes later, everything had been arranged neatly on the table. Blake connected a small speaker and played nice songs. The atmosphere instantly became lighter. I started serving everyone. “Here.”I handed June her plate of fried rice and grilled chicken. Then handed July and Blake theirs. “Mmmmmm…”The twins groaned after their first bite. “We’ve missed your cooking. They don’t

The second the automatic doors slid shut behind us, I let out a long breath.One I felt like I’d been holding for the last ten minutes.“I almost died,” I muttered.Blake didn’t answer immediately.He unlocked the SUV, placed the shopping bags inside the back seat, then leaned against the car.The next thing I knew…He started laughing. He laughed so hard his stomach hurt.I blinked at him.“…You’re laughing?”He tried to stop but Failed miserably.“I’m sorry.” He cleared his throat before another laugh escaped him. “I really am trying.”I folded my arms.“Blake, really? My life flashed before my eyes.”“Stop it. Don’t say it like that.” He shook his head, still trying to hold back his laughter. “What were you thinking when you held a potato chip pack over your face?”“What was I supposed to do?”I threw my hands in the air.“Stand there and wait until he saw me?”“Trust me, I had a plan.”“Well, I was too impatient to wait.”“I get your point,” he admitted. “But when you held onto his sh

As I sat there wondering if there was a way out of this mess,My eyes drifted to the drawer I had checked earlier today.The same drawer where I had seen the file with my parents’ names.My chest tightened.If today was truly my last day here, then I had to leave with something.Anything.I stood u

I turned slowly, scared to death, hoping it wasn’t Dexter at the door.“Ma, are you okay?”Sandra stood frozen at the entrance, her eyes wide with worry as she stared at me lying on the floor.Relief rushed through me so hard I almost cried.Thank God it wasn't Dexter.With trembling hands, I final

“You’ve got to be kidding me, Mia.”I looked down immediately, my heart beating so fast I could barely breathe properly.“Look at me when I’m talking to you,” he whispered carefully, not to bring attention to us.I raised my head slowly.“Do you have any idea how important that document is and you

Did she recognize me? Shit. I looked at Dexter praying he didn’t hear what she had said but he was still walking in the hallway before suddenly stopping and turning back. “Mia get your clumsy self here right now.” His voice was filled with irritation. “Coming sir.” Sandra kept staring at m
