Love In Disguise: Rebirth of the Heiress

“I'm sorry, Kiara," he began, his voice heavy with regret. "We regret to inform you that we can no longer administer these drugs to you.” I was dying. I was going to die. Kiara Williams was dying from Stomach Cancer. With only a few months to live, she could only stay at the hospital. Alone. Her annoying husband did not come and visit her, only her best friend, Jessica remained by her side. She could no longer pay the bills and was sent home. Arriving at her house she caught Jessica and her husband together in bed. In a fight, her husband pushed Kiara down the stairs. Kiara died. Or did she? She was reborn ten years back, but rather than being destroyed, she begged a strange man for a one night stand unless she may die again.

Chapter 61

I glanced down at the cute, meticulous bandaging Lucian had done, feeling a strange warmth blossom as I looked at the neat wrap around my ankle.

It had cute red hearts on it.

It was almost… sweet.

But that thought brought up another, a memory buried under years of pain and resentment.

One that caught me off guard.

"Kiki! You just scraped your knee!" My mother's panicked voice echoed, her face hovering over me as she gently lifted my leg, inspecting the small scrape with wide, tear-filled eyes.

"Mom, I'm fine," I mumbled, embarrassed, my cheeks hot as she fussed over me in the middle of the playground.

"You're not fine! You're hurt!" she insisted, fishing a tiny pink bandage from her purse with trembling hands. She pressed it to my knee, the little cartoon hearts on it making me smile despite myself.
