Chapter 2 A New Identity

• Jeniva puffed the smoke of her cigarette into her face again and laughed hysterically “did I go through all these efforts just to come here and untie you?” She inquired and bursted into laughter again.
• She was acting evil and her eyes were emitting fierce bitterness and hatred. She(Isabella) was scared. She tried to unite herself, putting all her efforts to it but Jeniva came closer and said “how about I help you”
• And slashed her cheeks with a knife. She screamed and shivered. Blood was gushing and that instant,she knew evil was about to befall her.
• Will she be able to get out of this alive? What has come over Jeniva, why is she hurting her? They've been sisters all their lives. What happened now?
• “Jeniva, why are you hurting me, what did I do wrong? We're sisters, please don't hurt me” she'd pleaded but the she-devil turned a fierce glare at her and asked “Who is your sister?
• You must be dreaming. You'd better wake up from your dream land. You and I were never related. You were adopted and I am the only one with the Manor bloodline here” Jeniva disclosed.
• She was dazed. She was adopted? Why didn't mom and dad say anything about it to her before they died? They had died in a ghastly motor accident and she was only ten back then.
• But Jeniva's parents took her in and raised her until she was going to clock 18. Why is she just knowing she wasn't a Manor descendant?
• “Your Mom was your biological mother but your father,who was my uncle, was never your father. But despite being an illegitimate child in that marriage, you got all the good things any child could ever deserve.
• My uncle cherished you and showered you with so much love. Your mother was a wealthy woman. She got a lot of wealth and properties from her parents and your father became a rich merchant.
• But I hate you. I hate you because you are more beautiful than me, I hate you because your parents are richer than mine. No wonder dad and mom orchestrated their accident and killed them both…” Jeniva said and laughed, puffing more smoke into her face.
• That day, she had thought she would die. The news of her parents being murdered by her uncle and Aunt shocked her more than anything else in this world.
• It had appeared like an accident. Everyone believed it to be a mere accident. Despite being young, she had accepted that her parents died in the accident.
• So it was masterminded. It wasn't just by accident nor was it a disaster that befell them naturally, they were murdered. Her parents had really been good to everyone around them and most importantly Jeniva's parents.
• How can they do this to them? And now, will Jeniva be ending her own life too? Her parents killed her parents and probably the murderer’s daughter was going to kill her too.
• What about her babies? Will they never get a chance to see the light of this life? Are they going to die in her belly before they were ever given a chance to take their first breath outside her belly?
• “Please spare me, Jeniva. For my baby's sake. Spare me for Alex's sake. Remember he is your friend and the baby in my belly is his” she'd pleaded.
• “Shut the fuck! In your dreams only you can be pregnant with Alex's child. The one whose child is in your belly is a stranger. Someone none of us know.
• The one who is carrying Alex's child is me. I'm two months pregnant already and that's more reason why I have to eliminate you so that I can marry him conveniently” Jeniva Scowled and slashed her from her temple down to her lower jaw.
• She screamed painfully, she felt her babies kick in her belly weakly. The children in her belly were definitely getting suffocated just like her. Will she die with her babies?
• She sobbed, her dress was getting soaked with her blood. She was weak but she cannot say which of it hurts her, the cutting of the knife or the betrayals on every side.
• And to know that her boyfriend was actually dating her cousin was something she least expected. Alex and Jeniva met during her 15th birthday and since then they have acted like platonic friends.
• And when she woke up that day, and realised that she'd lost her virginity, she'd thought it was Alex. He even sat by her on the bed and held her, apologising to her.
• So it was all a drama. They were together all along and now,Jeniva is pregnant with his child while she was carrying the child of a total stranger.
• “And lastly, you just signed the transfer of the entire wealth and properties of your parents to me. I owe everything now. And henceforth, my parents and I have no need of you” Jeniva concluded and gave her another stab on her head.
• This was enough for her. As the blood trickled down her face, her eyes went dizzy. She knew she wouldn't survive it, she was dying and the last words she remembered muttering to Jeniva was “I'll never forgive you”
• As Isabella Manor cleaned her tears filled face, she said “I am back now, mother and father. I will avenge you. I will never let your murderers have a peaceful end, that's my promise to you.
• I have a different face now, mother and I took up a different identity. But I am still your Isabella. I am still the baby you carry in your belly. I am your blood, the only one to carry on your bloodline.
• It will also interest you to know that you have two grandsons. They are geniuses. They are so sweet. They have your blood, mother. And whether Fiona Johnson or Isabella Manor, I am still your daughter.
• But father, please forgive me. I will not spare the Manor family for what they did to you. I will forget that you were once related to them. I will only seek their ruin and downfall.
• My return is for a purpose. This is me, father, I will not spare,I will not forgive the death of Isabella Manor nor the birth of Fiona Johnson!”
