Chapter 45

**Giselle's POV**

Villain, that sounds familiar, right? They are always the struggle and nuisance for every heroine in a story. I thought I was the heroine of my own love story. I am living my life to the fullest.

I have my career, my love, and everything else. I was not ready for the turning table of this world. I was not ready for the change, where I would be the villain in my ex-boyfriend's love story.

I was born into a very wealthy family. You could imagine my life with a golden spoon in my mouth ever since I was born until now. Both of my parents are well-known politicians. With a mother who is the mayor of our municipality and a father who is a senator and an ex-governor.

Everything went smoothly. I get what I want. I have both. one and beauty that anyone could wish to have and be a possession. I consider myself lucky. I am living my life way too easily.

The case is that I have come to the point where I also need to reciprocate.

Mom and Dad gave it to me. I was a high school student at the time when my dad called me from his office at our house.

Both my mother and father are two-faced devils. Money is a bit addicting; they are hungry for it. Little did I know they were starting to create a very hideous plan. They are planning to make me bait for one of Blackwood's sons.

A position in the government is not forever. My mom and dad are struggling to keep up in the business world. So they thought that if I could get one of the children of the Blackwoods as my boyfriend, I won't be having a problem, and neither will my parents.

At first, I was so hesitant. I talked to them at that time.

"Dad! Mom! This is so unfair. I want my freedom; boyfriends are off my list, but you are planning to push me into a marriage?" I was annoyed to mention it. That is insane!

"Ija, we are not in the government forever. Our future is still uncertain. Do you see our mansion? Your collection of bags It could be lost in a snap if we did not move. Our place in the business world is still uncertain. And marrying the son of a business god, a Blackwood, will break those uncertainties into a much better future, right?" Mom, I know she is manipulating me.

Inside my mind, I am asking, What else can I do? Maybe it is my time to do my part. I hate the idea of me being used for wealth, but I can't afford to lose everything that I have.

I was used to growing up rich, luxurious, or being able to buy everything I wanted. So yeah, I have no other choice but to do what they want, mom.

I was baited into a blind date with the most powerful tycoon's son. Lucas Son Blackwood was so handsome that night. You could tell by the mesmerising face I had at that time.

He is handsome, tall, and muscular. I didn't know that I would love this kind of blind date. I mean, look, this guy in front of me is a total package. Handsome and rich.

I didn't have a hard time. I learned that Lucas has had a longtime crush on me. So yeah, I can kind of tell that it was an easy movement. I mean, we have been dating for three months, and before we graduated high  school, we became I said yes.

I also gave to him and myself everything. He is my first... That night, when we were together, was also the first night that I lost my femininity. It was magical.

You can say it is wrong; I mean, we were both teenagers at that time. But what I know is that my destiny is with him. I am expecting it and predicting it. It's like nothing can separate us.

But who am I? I was not the one who created our destiny. Maybe there is a reason why the turning table was created.

In college, I dreamed of being a model. I wasn't sure before, but I was hired as a model for a TV commercial then. It is both nerve-wracking and exciting on my part.

Lucas, who is now my boyfriend, supported me. He is there whenever I have my ramp or my shooting. I started to dream of becoming a supermodel-an international one.

I am so young and ambitious. I already had a manager, and I am just a step closer to being an international model. My first international ramp will be held in Milan.

The only thing is that, unexpectedly, I got pregnant without Lucas knowing. I was too scared to learn that I am positive. I'm pregnant, and this will destroy my dreams.

Yes, I am young and ambitious. I was not ready for this; I had just graduated and just started modelling. My manager told me not to get pregnant.

I am creating a name in the industry, and then it will be ruined just because of pregnancy. I won't let it.

It's a sin, but yes. I aborted my child. I still remember that I was with Claire then. She is the only one who knows my dark secret. Lucas and I happened to be enemies before, in a love quarrel. And that gave me a way to execute my plan.

"God Giselle! This is insane; you will carry that on your conscience for the rest of your life! Don't you have pity?" Claire said. She is trying to stop me again.

I irritated him and made him suffer. "I'm too young to be a mother! Stop spitting stupid words, can you? You're not helping anymore!"

She sighed. "And what if the Blackwoods find out about this? Are you not afraid of their wrath?"

I looked at him badly. "If they find out, and they'll only find out if you report it, Don't you ever try, Claire? I'll forget we're friends."

Yeah, I aborted the child then. With the help of a therapist. I cried too; it is painful emotionally, physically, and psychologically. Do I regret it? Sure, but is there a place for that?

There are none.

I still continue to pursue my dream. Lucas was by my side.

I could not count on my fingers for almost six years how many times Lucas tried to propose marriage to me. And it wasn't my cup of tea until then.

I can't get married yet. My parents are arguing with me that I should be a Blackwood sooner or later so that we can be powerful.

Choking! I mean, yes! I am deeply in love with Lucas. Fr

I want to make the most of the time I still have. When I give birth, I know that at some point, everything will change. There will be limits.

And I can't afford to lose my shine. I am an international supermodel. I know Lucas doesn't even know, but I wouldn't be a model without something in return.

Yes, sometimes things happen to us and other producers of models. I cheated on Lucas a few times. But it is for a purpose. Remember? Young and ambitious. There is no place in my heart or mind for the word no.

I am too far away. I have come too far. But I didn't know that because I had come so far, the man who had been with me for several years had disappeared. Lucas. He already refuses to love me. He surrendered his love.

And God knows it is painful, especially since the reason we broke up was my fault at the time. I was not prepared for that time. Lucas finds out about the abortion, and he is so mad, he is furious. He might kill me if he wants to.

But I was more hurt when I found out that he already has a family. And there is a firstborn! All these years, we were just fooling around.

I confronted Lucas and his bastard family. I can't accept it! But I didn't expect Lucas to embarrass me in front of his family. He publicised my abortion. That's probably what Claire was saying.

That I will always be hunted by karma. And it doesn't feel good at all. I even found out that they were getting married. He proposed to me, but he wouldn't marry me. That is a sick joke. And I wasn't prepared for it.

I couldn't agree then. So I made a plan with Nick's help. Someone informed me that this Rutherford guy is in love with Zara. My husband's ex-wife

I cannot allow the marriage to continue. I will never allow myself to not be Blackwood in the end.

Zara disappeared from my path. She was being taken by Nick, and the hell do I care for the rest of her things?

I will execute my plan next. I am taking Lucas back. I want him back, but he refuses to.

I'm always there by his side; I just want it to return to the way it was before. But no, it's no use.

I never thought that the day would come when I would have to give up Lucas. I wasn't prepared, but I had to.

I regretted approaching Nick. He is crazy, a fucking psychopath, and obsessed. He should be stopped.

Today, I met Lucas. I promise him that it will be my last. I'm leaving for New York soon. I will stop chasing someone who can't love me anymore. It wasn't a waste, those years? That Lucas loves me so much. I will treasure those memories until my last breath.

We were at a café at that time. Lucas is with me, and he looks exhausted, tired, and sleepless. He really loves Zara more than he does me. And maybe my decision will change their fate once again.

"I love you, Lucas. You can curse me until your last breath, but remember that I loved you. It will be my last time to tell you this before I let you go. In all the years," I said with a broken heart. voice I didn't know I was crying.

"For all the years you've loved me, thank you so much," I said. "All I want is your forgiveness. And I understand if you are not ready to give it to me. Goodbye huh?"

"Thank you too, Giselle. I don't love you anymore, but you will always have a place in my heart. Thank you."

I took a paper. This is the address of an island. Where is Zara?

Yes, this time, I have neither the villain nor the heroine. I will be the righteous decider. I decided to make it right.

"Your answer is here."
