******8 YEARS AGO******
A beautiful lady who looked to be in her middle teens was strolling in the streets of Beijing while listening to music on her phone through plugged in earphones. As the beautiful melody played in her ears, she sang along while also dancing lightly. This of course made many people turn her way and when their eyes landed on her beautiful face, they froze for a second.
Long, smooth black hair that fluttered following the direction of the breeze. Eyes as dark as a void. Tall and sinful figure, almost reaching the height of two meters.
Her figure wasn't what shocked the people though, it was her face. Almost everyone knew that young lady whichever country they might be from. Nobody didn't know that face and those selective features.
"It's Yvonne from the Lucriel family" one woman from the people suddenly spoke making all the people turn away immediately and walk away. They didn't dare keep staring at someone of her status. They still wanted to live.
***************************************
Yvonne saw the people scurrying away and just continued walking like she did not care. She knew the reason they were so scared though.
*ring*
Her phone suddenly vibrated while playing a rap song which was her ringtone.
"uhhhh! Who could be calling me now?" she frustratedly pulled out her phone form her pockets and looked at the screen to see the calling person's name.
NO NAME
There was not a name which meant that the number was not saved in her phone. She then pressed the red button and cut the call thinking that it was a prankster or a person who had called the wrong number.
She then pressed the continue button and that had been playing before the call continued. However, before she could even walk two steps, her song cut and was replaced by the sound of her ringtone.
She pulled out her phone and saw the same unsaved person calling her again. This time however, she decided to answer the call. She didn't want the person to keep on disturbing her.
''finally, you answered my call'' a feminine voice spoke as soon as she pressed on the green button.
"Sister?'' Yvonne was surprised to find out that the person was her sister. She also became curious about why her sister would call from a new number.
''what happened sister? Did you lose your phone or....?" Yvonne's thoughts were about to get over exaggerated when her sister interrupted her and spoke:
"Don't worry, nothing of that sort happened, I just wanted to ask you something"
Yvonne hearing that nothing had happened to her sister felt relieved. She then asked:
"What is it that you need to ask sister?"
"Well...…uhm...."her sister seemed to hesitate to speak which made Yvonne suspicious. She then asked her sister:
"Sister, is everything alright?"
"Y-Yes….everything is fine, I just wanted to ask a hypothetical question, nothing important "her sister spoke stutteringly which made Yvonne even more sure that something really was happening.
Yvonne had known her sister since childhood and there was never a time they did not share the same room despite being rich and possessing more spacious houses than all the fingers in all their hands combined. She would surely know when her sister is lying.
"What is the question sister? I am sure that I can give you a decent answer"
"Well, ok….,"her sister agreed with some hesitation still available in her voice, "Let's say I meet a good man by chance who has a good upbringing and also quite successful in life"
"What do you think father and mother would say if I had a child with him...out of wedlock...which of course can be fixed with a wedding"
*BOOM*
Yvonne felt like her sister's words were so loud that her eardrums almost burst from hearing what she had said.
"Oh no sister, you didn't, did you?" Yvonne asked with a shaky voice as she feared the thoughts occupying her mind. She knew their parents and exactly how they would react to such a thing. She also knew what it would cause.
"N-No o-of course I wouldn't, it's just hypothetical, remember?" spoke her sister from the other end of the call.
********************************************************************************
*BACK TO THE PRESENT DAY*
Yvonne mouth froze agape as she looked at the boy who was now staring at her with ferocious expression on his face but all Yvonne's mind was occupied with were the similarities between the boy and her sister.
"So....Yvan truly was lying that day" Yvonne now remembered how her sister stuttered over the phone eight years ago combined with how she had always disappeared from time to time without notice. Her behavior since the day she asked Yvonne the so-called hypothetical question which turned out to be not so hypothetical changed. She always disappeared from home from time to time claiming that she had business overseas. Since her family comprised of business elites, they all fell for her lies.
And now, Yvonne found an undeniable truth of what her sister had been doing behind the backs of her family and possibly, her biggest secret.
She saw the boy slowly crouch while his eyes were fixated on her like a prey looking at a predator. High caution was reflected in his eyes and he picked a kitchen knife which was on the ground.
Afterwards, the boy dashed towards Yvonne with great speed while pointing his knife at her which greatly surprised Yvonne since she did not expect such a turn of events. However, as a member of an elite family with a lot of wealth, she had gotten the most refined karate lessons since young age. She easily evaded the boy's attack by sidestepping. Although she was most capable of countering and hitting the boy, she refrained from doing so as she didn't want to hurt him.
After the boy had missed, he did not turn back and threw the knife on the floor. Once he got out of the mansion, he pusher the double doors closed and locked them.
"I've had enough!" he yelled as he ran towards the gate to get out of the mansion's yards. He didn't want to continue living in bondage anymore. Never once had he seen the outside world and that moment was going to be his first.
***************************************
*BAM!!!*
Yvonne finally broke the double doors after multiple tries with her kicks. She looked around and saw the young boy running toward the gate with great speed and wasted no time following him. As her legs were longer that his, the distance between them shrank over time and she gained up on him.
