My Only Love: The Targeted Heiress

Catherine had heard all the stories about her biological parents from Paul, the former leader for the S team. The previous 'Alpha' who offered Chloe to bring Kinsey to Marcell joined them too. He was already old but still had undeniable dignity and a loving father gesture.

Even though Cathy never met this person, Kinsey Paxton looked at her as if she were his daughter. The same affection when that man looked at her twin brother.

Now she understood why her twin brother always spoke about his second dad figure.

"I often wonder if I had the chance to meet the second miss." said the second generation 'Alpha' with a happy smile. "Now that I have seen you, I can leave in peace."

"Dad, your joke is out of date now. Everyone knows you still had a long life." Kinsey rolled his eyes lazily as his second dad decided to joke about his impending death due to old age to Cathy.

Cathy blinked her eyes and stared at the Alpha II with a curious look. That man looked as healthy as any man would be, but why that man said things as if he would die in the near future?

"Rinrin, no worries. He wouldn't die so soon. Not on my watch."

Alpha chuckled to see how hard-headed his foster son to see him healthy and alive.

"Now second miss. You knew the story about your birth. Is there any else that you want to ask?"

Something that she wanted to ask? There are a thousand questions that she wanted to find the answer to the point she did not know which one to go first.

At first, Cathy didn't understand why her uncle and Kinsey had started to tighten her movements lately. She cannot go out freely without someone accompanying her.

Not to mention the strange events around her that almost made her hurt. It was so crazy and beyond any human's logic.

Now she began to understand. Apparently... being a member of the Paxton family was far worse than she had imagined. The rumors about Paxton were even nil in comparison.

But she still didn't get the answer she wanted. They even didn't tell her what happened between the Paxton and Regnz families to hate each other.

Is that true that Vincent caused her mother's death? Is that true that her mother made Vincent suffered the year?

"Uhm... can you tell me about... the relationship between my mother and Vincent?"

Alpha and Paul exchanged glances as if to communicate through eyes.

Cathy did not notice that her twin brother clenched his hands in fists to hold his sudden madness.

Not long after, Paul decided to tell her what happened around seventeen years ago.

Paul had just returned home from a board meeting on behalf of Chloe. By then, he had arrived in Eastern Wallace at nine in the evening. Paul headed to Chloe's study room to report the results of his meeting. That's when he heard Vincent's angry voice and yelling at Chloe.

Paul didn't really remember their conversation because their voices were quite muffled, and he couldn't listen to their conversation. The door was shut tight, and Chloe's wall room was soundproof so their voices wouldn't escape the room. It was a miracle that Paul could hear voices because of his sharp hearing and Vincent's roaring.

Suddenly the door to Chloe's study opened, and Vincent ran off with an irritated expression that has never been shown before.

"Paul! Get him! Make sure he doesn't act recklessly!"

Paul immediately caught up with Vincent, who was now riding his bicycle, and disappeared from his sight quickly. Paul went to his car, and he caught up with Vincent, who was now sitting on a bench within a minute. Paul got out of his car and was surprised that the bike on which Vincent was riding had changed shape.

The front wheels did not look round, while the rear wheels were detached from their position. Did Vincent have an accident?

Paul approached him and saw several abrasions on Vincent's face and hands. It looks like Vincent did have a single accident. Fortunately, this unstable young man only rides an ordinary bicycle. If Vincent rides a motorcycle, no one knows what will happen to Vincent?

Paul sat next to him in silence. Because he did not know the cause of Vincent's fight with Chloe, Paul could only wait.

"Why are you following me?" finally, Vincent's flat voice sounded.

"The first miss was worried about you."

Vincent snorted at the answer.

"You mean she's worried I'll go to Benjie?" was his sarcasm, making Paul raised an eyebrow.

Benjamin? What does it have to do with his first miss's younger brother?

"No. Earlier, the first miss said she was afraid you would act recklessly."

"By telling Benjie."

Paul sighed in resignation at the stubborn teenager next to him.

"What are you arguing about? You don't usually oppose the first miss like this."

"Benjie... is not Davone Paxton's biological child. And for this reason, Chloe separated Benjie from his mother, making my mother worry about her sister... not only that, do you know that right now her mother is seriously ill due to malnutrition? How could Chloe be so heartless??!"

"The first miss has her reasons..."

"By making other people suffer all his life?! If I had known that she was this cruel, I would never have protected her from that person!"

"Do you regret to took the training to protect the first miss?" Paul himself didn't know why he was asking it either.

"I do," Vincent replied coldly. "I hope she will be punished." after cursing Chloe, Vincent got up, left his bike, and walked to a place.

Paul just sighed and decided to return to Eastern Wallace. After this, he will tell Lest to cross out Vincent's name as the main candidate for the L team leader's successor.

Unfortunately, once he got to Eastern Wallace, Paul couldn't find Chloe anywhere. After investigating in and out, he found out that Chloe left the house without bodyguards. Paul immediately contacted Lest and Marcel to search where Chloe was.

That night all of Marcel and Lest's special forces men were deployed to look for Chloe. If only they could use Stealth's assistance, they could find the first miss in a matter of minutes or even seconds. Unfortunately, Stealth was deactivated, and until now, after searching for four hours, they have been unable to find her.

Then came a headline saying the Paxton heiress was found lifeless in a cheap hotel room covered in blood.

Surprisingly, one of the S team members accidentally identified the splattered blood on the floor... which turned out to be Vincent's blood.

Knowing this, Marcel orders his men to look for Vincent because he suspects that Vincent had killed his wife. Alas... they found him dying in the hospital.

Marcel desired to immediately demand an explanation from Vincent whether his identity as Chloe's husband would be revealed or not.  Lest and Paul managed to prevent him so that the problem they were facing did not get complicated.

In the end, Paul approached the Regnz family, who were waiting in front of the operating room. It was then that he realized the Regnz family was accusing Chloe of what happened to their youngest son. They wanted to take Chloe to court for allowing minors to train in martial arts and face a dangerous mafia group. Both parties accuse each other without wanting to yield.

Since then, good relations between Paxton and Regnz have broken apart, and there was a cold war between them for years.

It was only in the last few years that the Regnz family had accepted invitations and came to commemorate Chloe's death day.

"No one knows what happened to Vincent that night and why his blood was found in the area of ​​the first miss's body, so we just assumed... Vincent was blinded with anger and hatred so..."

"NO WAY! Vincent couldn't have done it!" snapped Cathy now with tears in her eyes. She couldn't bear to hear it anymore.

Vincent killed her mother? What nonsense!

But why did her mother have to abandon Benjamin's birth mother to make Vincent angry?

In her memory, her adoptive mother was gentle and kind to her. In her memories, Vincent treated her with care and the million love that always adorns the man's eyes.

The fact that she had a birth mother who could ruin someone's life and also a man she loved turned out to be her mother's killer... made her chest feel tight. She couldn't accept it... There was no way she could believe this fact.

Cathy wished she was Catherine West. Even though her father... her birth uncle, hated her... she would rather live with him than face this horrible reality.

Cathy cried loudly and refused any comfort her brother or Paul gave.. She was holding her head because she suddenly felt dizzy, Cathy also felt it was getting harder to breathe, and finally… she passed out.
