.....

Seven years ago….

Inside the grand bedroom, a small figure was asleep on the bed, it wasn't long before her eyes swung open. She stared blankly at the environment, even though she has spent five years of her life here, it still feels extremely awkward to her. In a Mansion where she was unwanted, and the servants even looked down upon her…. Indeed she was the unwanted wife of the Mansion, she finally realised why she was married into the Mansion in the first place. The man she has always loved and admired secretly all these years, he never even looked her up in the eyes, not even once. Never have she thought that she was never going to consummate her marriage after the wedding night, this event caused most people to think she was barren and useless!. Even her in-laws now hated her because of this, but what should she do?. Would she dare tell them the truth?. Even though she did, are they going to believe anything coming out of her mouth?. Tsk. They all hated her now, and the most laughable part, the average poor Lady they rejected for their son, now they accept her, but now she was the push over. How was I foolish enough to fall for this trap?. She thought.

Without much thinking, and after brushing away all the disturbing thoughts inside her head, she rose up and went straight to the bathroom. A bitter smile appeared on her side lips when she saw the reflection in the mirror, her face was pale and dull, making her look even older than her own age. This was caused all because of the stress that she had to go through…. It just doesn't stop. She can't even keep count of all the times she tried to get his favour.

"Anya, stop thinking…. I better start my day". Deep down she was thinking of ways to go to the company, ever since she got married to Lucian, she started working in his company just to get close to him, she even forgot about her own inheritance in her family because of him.

After bathing, she went ahead to put on her clothes before making her way out of the Mansion. Even on the way, she still couldn't stop thinking and worrying about what happened last week, when he handed over to her a divorce document. Of course, she declined to sign it, she can't just possibly end five years of marriage, not just so easily…. She'll be a fool to just sign it.

"I should better catch a bus". She muttered. Even as the wife of the most powerful billionaire of the entire world, she still has to catch a bus?. This isn't a new thing to Anya at all, ever since she stepped into his Life, she wasn't allowed or given any right to lay her filthy hands on anything belonging to Lucian, but as time went by, she was pretty much comfortable with it without any slight problem.

Something caught Anya's attention that she had to halt on her track. "Th…. This car?". Without any doubt, she surely recognised this car, but what is it doing here at this time?. She was curious and didn't back down, so she went to check it out. Behold, as expected of it, the car was present at one of the most expensive restaurants in the City. But what is it doing there exactly?. She gasped before hiding herself.

Her face instantly became pale. This was the same Lady, she once saw her picture in his room!. "Is she his Mistress?". Her hand gripped on her clothes tightly as she wouldn't stop staring at their direction even though she wanted to badly run away. What caused her legs to lose control was the moment she witnessed the two kiss!!!. In public, they kissed! But never in a million years would he let her get close to him in public!.

Anya couldn't take any of this, so she ran away in tears. No matter how much she tried to control her emotions, the unwanted tears wouldn't stop flowing continuously. This caused some attention of the crowds passing by. [Among the crowds: How can a young lady be tearing up in public shamelessly?. Something bad indeed must have happened to her].

Anya's clothes were drenched in sweat as she arrived back at the Mansion, just as always, no one paid any concern to her. She won't blame them anyways, they were just afraid because of the fear of losing their jobs.

Getting to the bedroom, she slammed and locked the door from the inside before weakly walking to the bed. Immediately she arrived, her legs lost control and she fell flat on the bed. Her eyes were both swollen and red. She deeply blamed herself for this!. She remembered her big brother warned her about this, but she was so naive to think that her brother only hated Lucian for some reasons. But now she has seen it for herself!.

"I…. I'm sorry brother!". Her throat was dry and it hurt a lot. All because of Lucian's sake, she hasn't been in contact with her brother for God knows when, five years it is, after she got married to her crush!.

"I hate you Lucian…. I hate you!!!". I can't believe that I was so blinded by love for you that I foolishly let you treat me like trash. It'd always be her, why didn't I think of it!?.

She remembered something, that lady must be the same Lady that Lucian cared about, and now his family cares about her also. I guess humans could change sides easily without a second thought.

Her face darkened as she stared at the wardrobe before her. She instantly stood up from her bed with only one thought. I must divorce him!.

Anya this time wasn't backing down, why the hell would she choose to remain here when she was not wanted by anybody?. If she could guess, they could even kill her just to get rid of her someday, wouldn't it be best if she just disappeared from their lives by herself?!.

Without taking a deep breath, she roughly signed the documents without second thought. But then, an idea popped into her head. Tonight will be the most memorable day of your life!. Her face darkened as her lips supported it with a wicked grin.

Just as expected, Lucian arrived back at exactly 10pm, even in the dark, his cold handsome face could not be denied. His sharp jaw, deep eyes and tall stature couldn't be unnoticed…. He indeed was the dream man of every lady, but not to Anya anymore. She was finally done with this nonsense one sided love.

She was familiar with what he always would demand upon his return, so she already messed with it. She monitored the servant that served him the drink, after she was gone, Anya went ahead to take a peep. As soon as she saw him drink the wine, she instantly entered the room, shutting it from the inside. This was the guest room, she suddenly recalled something on the first night of their wedding…. "I'd rather sleep in the guest room than with you".

"Ha, I guess you don't have any choice this time around!". As expected, the medicine already worked fast against him, this medicine type, the stronger and willed one is, the faster and more effective the medicine works!. And she knew Lucian too well.

"W…. What are you doing!?". His voice was so threatening, but Anya didn't care about anything. It's not as if he could move his body anyways. I guess this should be my payback to you after all!.

She undressed herself without any care, nor was she intimidated by his deadly Aura. What she came here to do, she was sure to finish it!.

.

Finally morning time arrived, but Anya was nowhere to be found inside the Mansion, only a divorce document was found on top of the bed.

"Where is she?!".

"E…. Em…. Your wife already left Boss".

Early seven years later….

"Mommy…. What're you planning to get for our birthday?!. I can't believe that it's finally here!". Zach yelled out excitedly, on the other hand, Zeke didn't say a word, he only watched the two as always.

"Em…. Let me think….". Anya said and placed her fingers on her jaw.

"I want a Mansion in California ''. Zeke's sudden demand to Anya, made her speechless.

"M…. Mansion?". Anya muttered in disbelief.

"I was only kidding Mom, I know you can't afford it". Zeke announced with a straight face.

[Instant death].

"Hmph!. Good on you for making fun of me". Anya frowned her face when she said to Zeke.

"Mom, don't mind Zeke, he doesn't know what he's saying, you're the richest Mom in the universe!". Zach declared and ran to embrace Anya.

"Aww…. You're so…. Cute!". Anya couldn't stop herself from cuddling him all to herself.

"I don't want to hug….". Before Zeke could finish his words, Anya cuddled him too.

"Don't tell me you're a blushing little man?". Anya teased Zeke as she cuddled him.

[Zeke: Of course not!. I…. I don't want to hug you anymore].

.

After putting the twins to sleep, Anya retired to her bedroom.

"Big brother, why did you tell mommy that?. You know she hates California because of him". Zach announced, but Zeke was unmoved by what he said, his face even darkened.

"I know, but I want to go to California, so I can give that guy a piece of my mind!. I'll sell his shares and collect his companies and riches for our Mom!". Zeke declared.

"Easy…. Mommy is gonna hear you!". Zach whispered a little loudly to Zeke who scoffed.

"You'll see about that, I'll get us all to California next week". A wicked smile appeared on Zeke's lips after he had said.

"No…. No. Whatever you're thinking, I'll not help you". Zach admitted.

"Don't you want to avenge our mom, Zach?. It turns out you are a coward. Hmph". Zeke turned to the opposite side of the bed, away from Zach.

"No I'm not, and to prove that, I'll help mommy!". Zach immediately said and that made Zeke smile.

"Come on then, we need mommy's laptop". Zeke announced and afterwards, he led the way to Anya's bedroom. They were quiet enough not to wake Anya up. After achieving their mission, they retired back to their room with the laptop.

"It requires a password". Zeke stated before he and Zach stared at themselves, before releasing a smirking facial expression…. This shouldn't be a hard case for them at all. Anya isn't aware of this yet, but her little cuties were professional mischievous hackers!. That explains why she never runs out of funds!. It turns out her babies are really mischievous!. [Zeke: Note, we don't steal, we just take!].

Zach's fingers were faster than any professional. Plus, it didn't take up to five minutes for him to open the laptop and gain all access.

"I'll take it from here now, little brother". Zeke announced before he collected the laptop and started typing.

[...... I, Mrs Anya, a single mother of my lovely kids, would like to be given the opportunity to travel to California, in the hope of being a better fashion designer there, and rising the company to the top!].

“Hehehehe”. Zeke laughed out after he finished typing.

"Whoa…. You really are smart Zeke!. But, how would this wor….". Zach couldn't finish talking because Zeke interrupted him.

"Don't worry little brother, I happened to hear a lot of things when at Mom's working place". Zeke explained.

"Huh?. How did you do that, Zeke?. I was there with you the whole time…. Why didn't I hear anything?". Zach questioned.

"Because you're ignorant…. You should make use of your talents a lot, little brother". Zeke said and tapped Zach's shoulder before standing up. "Wait here, I better return this laptop to Mom's room". Zeke smirked after saying, soon he thought to himself, ‘I bet she'll be excited tomorrow. Hehehe’.

The night was running fast, it wasn't long before the morning greeted.

Anya had already prepared the kids and herself. And soon, she went to the company with them. But before she entered the building in front of her, she halted.

"Why am I having a bad feeling today?". Anya muttered to herself before staring at her babies that smiled back at her. "Something isn't right here, why is Zeke smiling like this?. He isn't always like this unless he has done something!". Anya couldn't help but become suspicious of Zeke, but that wasn't for long, because, how can she be suspicious of this adorable face that long!!!?.

"I'm here". Anya announced as she arrived at her work place.

[Lady 1: Welcome director!]

[Lady 2: Yes, welcome director!. Hope you had a great morning today!].

[Assistant 3: Good day director!. Hope you're good?!]

[Anya's thought: Okay…. Can someone please explain to me what the heck is going on right now!?].

"Yes, I'm great y'all, have a nice day!". Anya slightly bowed her head in respect. And just as she was about to retire to her office, she met her Boss’s assistant. ‘What now?’. Anya thought to herself.

"Zeke shouldn't we follow our mommy?"

"No need for that, we'll both wait for Mommy here. We don't want to see her over excited face, now do we?". Zeke replied to Zach.

[Zach: hehe…. By that, you mean her expensive facial expression!].

"Aww…. So cutee!!!!!". The company workers admired the two twins. Zach played along by smiling widely and sweetly at the workers, making him even more cute!. But as for Zeke, he just frowned his face because the workers were all annoying to him!.

"Whaaaatttt!!!!?". Anya, who was in her Boss's office, suddenly exclaimed.

Even as Zeke and Zach were here, they could clearly hear their Mom's surprised scream. This sudden scream caused others to flinch, well, except the two masterminds behind the surprise scream.

[Zach and Zeke: Oops].

To be exact, Zeke and Zach were sure that their mommy spent up to an hour in the elder boss office. She was trying to resolve her issue with the elder boss, but nothing was working out because he had already prepared the flight for their departure next week. The elder boss was indeed excited, someone as talented as Anya shouldn't waste her time in a little City like this one, it'd be great if she was out there in California instead!. Who knows, maybe their little company would become great because of Anya!?.

Anya finally came out from the elder boss' office after seeing there was no way out for her.

"Come here you brats, don't tell me you have something to do with this?". Anya called her twins to her side and questioned them.

"Of course not, mommy!. Would that mean we're great at hacking stuff?. It's not true mom". Zach explained.

‘Sh*t…. Their faces are just so cute!. How can cute babies like mine possibly do this?. I must be hallucinating’. Anya thought before she gasped and thought again, ‘Could I possibly be a…. Sleepwalker!?’.

.

Anya had no other choice since she couldn't possibly quit her job…. If she did, she'll spend days looking for another job!. It took her a long month to find a fine paying company like this, so she can't possibly quit. But at the same time, she can't help but wonder how the heck that tragic incident happened. Who could have messed with her laptop and sent that message?. Is she really a sleepwalker?. ‘Jeez…. I need to think straight’. Anya thought.

Next week later, Anya prepared her babies and herself for the flight to California. ‘Will I get to meet my big brother?. I haven't been in touch with him for a long time’. Anya thought before she started wondering. Is he going to be mad at her?. She can't keep count of it, but she was sure her last contact with him was when she was still 18 years old…. But now she is 30 years old. Anya sighed deeply before she muttered in a whispering voice, “I hope my big brother has already forgiven me”.

"Finally Zach, we're going to avenge our Mom! And everyone who looked down on her will be so sorry and beg on their knees!". Zeke had to message this to Zach so that their mommy won't get to know.

"Yeah brother, and I can't believe we're going to spend our 6th birthday there tomorrow!". Zach replied to Zeke by sending a message to him.

"I know…. Zach".

"Mm". Zach nodded at Zeke.

It didn't take long and Zeke smirked mischievously before he typed a message to Zach, "Would you like us to own a house of our own, Zach".

"Of course I want our own house…. But our mommy isn't that rich to afford it, so we're going to stay at an apartment. Where do you think we're going to get money for the house you're talking about?". Zach typed back.

"Don't worry, mommy doesn't have one, but that jerk does! Maybe we can even take something valuable from him". Zeke typed a message again to Zach. Zeke was smart enough with technology more than Zach, and even though it was extremely tricky and almost impossible, it was possible for him. He already knows everything concerning the one who hurt their Mommy!. Plus, He would start his revenge!. His Mom was naive enough back then, but now, she has got her little soldiers to protect her this time around!.

Since he has finished typing a message, Zeke passed back the cellphone to Zach who collected it.
