The Untold Truth

31

Vanessas POV

"What do you mean ?" I said, my voice came out shaky as worry started filling my body

"Zac and Kylie know each other" Ethan said as he grabbed my hand "did you know about this ?"

I was in complete shock . Of course I didn't know about this ! And is he even saying the truth !? I mean the investigators can be wrong , there's no way Zac and Kylie know each other

"What!?" I screamed " there's no fucking way in hell that Zac knows Kylie !"

"He does Vanessa, I don't know for how long but they've been planing something "

"Planning what !?"

"Kylie wants to marry Grayson for his money, as soon as they get married she's going to take all his money and completely leave him in bankruptcy, she's done that before . Grayson would be her 8th victim "

"What!? So she's only with him for his money !? What a bitch, how dare she " I paused for a second "wait and what the hell does Zac have to do In this ?"

"Zac is helping her, look I don't know for how long they've known each other , and i don't know if Zac has helped her make those other  frauds but I do know that you've been a really big obstacle for Kylie. They knew how much you and Grayson loved each other and that's why they had to figure out a way to take you out of the map, that's when Zac appeared in your life"

My heart was completely broken as Ethan spoke, it'll all made sense. I always wondered why Zac, a complete stranger changed his life for me, for someone he didn't even know, someone he met that day . Now it all makes sense . I couldn't get words out of my mouth, my throat starting closing as my eyes started filling with tears , Ethan came close to me and hugged me tight .

"Vanessa I know this is hard to believe but trust me I'm telling you the truth , Kylie is a crazy. Her and her 2 cousins, Amaya and Polo are with Grayson and I don't know what they're capable of "

"We need to find Grayson, but I need to talk to Zac first " I said as I got up but Ethan stopped me

"Wait no , if you tell Zac that we know the truth then he's going to tell Kylie. We have to find Grayson first "

I wiped my tears away , I'm not going to cry for someone who doesn't deserve my tears . I'm not letting him hurt me or Grayson. How could I be so stupid ! Why didn't I notice !? I've been living with a monster for the past 14 years and I didn't even know, my daughter could be in danger and it's all my fault .

"We need to pick up Gabriella, then I'll call Grayson or " I screamed out of frustration "Ethan we need to find him, I can't let anything bad happened to Grayson"

As we made our way to Ethans car I took my ring off and threw it as far as I could

"What was that?" Ethan asked confused

"My engagement ring, Zac gave it to me last night " i said as I struggled to keep my tears in my eyes "I really thought I could be happy with him, I didn't think I would have another chance with your brother so I wanted to give myself a chance with Zac "

"Vanessa, Grayson has never stopped loving you. He wanted to break up with Kylie for you. But since you ran off that day at the dinner he completely got destroyed, he read a wrong letter . Who knows what that fake letter said. That's why he went back to Kylie , but it's always been you . And I know you love Grayson just like before or we'll maybe even more "

"Yeah Ethan you're right , I've never stopped loving your brother . And that's why we need to find him as soon as possible, I need to say sorry, explain the whole story to him and Gabriella, this time I'm not running away. I want to have the family I've always wished for and if Grayson accepts my apology I'll be the happiest woman alive "
