Chapter Twenty-two
"What!" Almost all of them exclaimed at the same time. Anna was the only person who was not surprised. She knew her sister too well not to trust her gut feeling. Eventually she was right. "Khloe?!" Lydia couldn't believe both her eyes and ears. "After what she did to Anna, how can I let him go scotfree?" Khloe argued. "He deserved whatever is coming and worse ---"Thwack! A sudden slap was registered on her face. But it wasn't Lydia that slapped her. "You crazy girl!" Anna's face matched both the anger and the slap. "Anna!" Khloe gasped so hard that she almost choked on her breath. Lydia was the only person who wasn't displeased to see it, although she was shocked. "How could you do such a stupid thing without telling anyone of us about it?" Anna yelled at her. "Who could I have told?" Khloe didn't back down this time. "What would he have done to that person next?"None of them had something to say to her outburst. She clasped one palm to the hot cheek as hot tears streamed do
Chapter Twenty-one
"The CCTV footage?" Khloe was the first to exclaim upon hearing what the officer had said. "Yes, miss. Is that a problem?" Sheriff asked, not sure what could have inspired that reaction. "Is something wrong?" Khloe repeated the question. "Really? After what happened to me, do you dare to doubt my words by bringing up the CCTV footage?"Since Davien had lodged in a normal hotel, Khloe never had thought that there would be any reason to worry about the event being recorded. The news of the CCTV footage totally caught her off guard and she knew what would happen if people were truly to find out that she framed Davien. This was why she was trying to pull off a stunt in order to make sure that the footage wouldn't be necessary for the next phase of the event. Even if it meant gaslighting the officers. "Are you saying that I'm lying?" She yelled at the Sheriff. "That's right!" Lydia quickly chimed in. "Will you put the words of an ex-convict over that of my precious daughter?"Khloe c
Chapter Twenty
Davien had his head in between his legs as he sat inside the cell. The memory of what happened to him in the past came rushing back. How Anna and co had had him locked up at Donman District for an allegation of stealing a necklace that was a gift. How he had been made to suffer and even ended up drinking a bottle of urine. Having those memories set something off in him and he sprang up to his feet. That was in the past when he didn't know his identity. That was when he thought his life was over. Right now, his life was just getting started. For a fact, he was the most powerful and influential person that this country has ever known. Gone were the days when he would be made to suffer for what he didn't do. He wouldn't allow it this time. He was Davien Ghys Machkerson! The heir of the most powerful and flourishing Machkerson family! All the world will bow at this feet if he says the world!He sprang to his feet instantly at the renewing of the spirit. He walked to the gates and shoo
Chapter Nineteen
Davien found no point in putting up a fight. There was nothing he could say that would make any sense to this mob. Khloe has successfully played her way into their minds and made them slaves to her words. He couldn't get them out of this. "He can't even talk!" Someone yelled as they dragged Davien away. "How could he? He would be shameless to ever think of it!""See how gentle and quiet he looks. What a handsome devil!""Handsome my foot! He's grotesque! He should die!!!"Davien was shoved into the car and taken down to the police station. He was immediately detained, given no chance to even say a word. As though he didn't have a chance at life. "How do you feel now, miss?" One of the paramedics who had admitted Khloe to the station lab asked. "I want to go home." Khloe suddenly jumped on her feet. The woman in charge was stunned by the sudden action of Khloe. She looked too fiesty for someone who has truly gone through that trauma. "You shouldn't think of going anywhere for no
Chapter Eighteen
Davien had just returned to his suite after a long day out and was trying to fix himself something to eat. He craved instant noodles and wanted the mix of some drinks to complement it. Suddenly, there came a knock on the door. Just like it was when Anna had come to him. The people who work in the hotel would naturally use the alarm. "Who could it be?" He wondered. If there was one thing that he was very much certain of, it was the fact that it could never be Anna. Not after what he had done to her. In fact, even up to this moment, he didn't feel an iota of pity towards her. Whatever she got, she truly deserved it. Then the alarm rang. First it was a knock, and now the door bell. Davien knew that he couldn't just sit by and do nothing. He got up and walked to the door, "Who is that?" He asked. "Room service." The voice followed after another attempt at the alarm. For the first time, Davien regretted not taking the instruction of Flora to choose a tech-inclined hotel. Right now,
Chapter Seventeen
For a couple of moments, Davien was lost in thoughts after dropping the call with Flora. "Why did he make me the heir even after I spoke against it?" He wondered. Now it made sense why Anna would track him down to demand for what belonged to her. It was never his interest to lay claim to the assets of Old Sir Benjamin. In fact, if the family were to know his real identity, then they would realise that their family asset was nothing but a drop of water in the Atlantic of his family's. He decided that there were a couple of things that he had do himself. ....Anna Benjamin returned to the Benjamin Villa in tears. Her hair was disheveled and she looked closely to a homeless person. "What the hell!" Vincent jumped on his feet upon spotting her. He had come here to invite Anna officially to the Charity Event by presenting the VIP card to her. And to also let her know that her family company is a step away from glamor. But seeing her looking tattered and shapeless, he just couldn't
