Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

   Andromeda looked around and took the woman inside their car, dragging her. Andy gently pushes away the scarf and touched the scar on her cheek which destroys her beauty. Her heart slowly breaks and then reached her neck and then her left arm that has burned. It wasn't burned by fire but acid. 

   Her mother looked out carelessly, getting frantic and paranoid. 

"Mom, it's me. What happened to you?" 

"She's going to kill me." The real Fiona Mondragon said as her voice shakes. Fiona reached Andy's face and kissed her forehead. "My princess." 

"I'm here now. No one is going to hurt you." Andromeda said. Zach knocked on the window shield as he looked around and their bodyguards surrounded the car. 

"Andy?" 

   Fiona immediately put the scarf around her face, and she tried to get out of the car but Andy hold her to stop her. 

"It's fine. It's my husband." She told. Fiona shudders and hugged Andy tightly. Andy opened the car as Zach slid inside and looked at the woman that Andy is hugging. 

"We need to leave ASAP," Andy told him. Zach nodded as one of the bodyguards is holding their gown and suit. Andy hugged her mother for long and Fiona Mondragon hugged her back as she kept looking around. 

"Is this bulletproof?" 

"Yes. Don't worry okay. Tell me, who wanted to kill you?" Fiona peeked at Zach and she looked so scared. 

"Don't worry Mom. I will protect you." 

"Sorry that I missed your birthday and wedding. I should be there to help you out with everything. How's James? I haven't made his favorite on his birthday." Fiona started tearing. "And your dad?" It's almost a whisper. Fiona looked so broken and she's holding her tightly. "I saw you last week in the shop, so I came every day to see if you were there." 

   Zach pulled out his phone to call his men. 

"Prepare the house. Put more guards around it and additional security. Prepare the guest room in the main house. Yes. Prepare food and warm clothes. Use Andy's unused clothes… yes." Zach muttered on the phone. "Don't worry, mother. I already settled everything, and no one is going to hurt you." 

   Fiona nodded and had fallen asleep in Andy's arms. Like she never had slept for whole years. Zach kissed Andy's forehead and soon they reached their mansion. No one followed them since there are two motorbikes behind them a few meters away to make sure that no one is tailing them. 

"It will be fine. It's good that you found your mom." 

"She's so scared," Andy muttered. "Shall I call dad?" 

"Not for now." He murmured. "We have to ask your mom first." 

"Okay. We also need a doctor for her burns. Plastic surgery will do. We need a discrete operation." 

"I will handle it. Don't worry."

   Alanis checked his phone many times and then he tried calling her. She answered after a few rings in a hoarse voice. He was so worried every day about her. But his people that are watching over her told him that she's in a country clubhouse that Mondragon owns and that she's safe. 

"Hey, my Queen." 

"I need to sleep." She murmured. 

"Have you been doing all night?" 

"I just hacked some phone and retrieve a few data… leave me alone for eight hours." 

"Okay. Sleep tight. I love you." 

"Hmm." Then she hangs up. 

   Alanis faced his laptop. Someone is playing on him. Could it be Yves? His stocks can't drop. He needed to make new plans regarding this.

   Ellen fitted her dress and send photos to Andel who is already on his work. Andel saw it and send her lots of hearts and kisses. Her heart is pumping so fast that she couldn't take the euphoria that love is giving her. 

   She went to her restaurant and Seth is waiting as he sipped his coffee. 

"I've been knocking on your penthouse," Seth said. 

"I was staying somewhere else." She told and she's not dumb enough to tell anyone or everybody that she's living with her boyfriend. Andel is her secret lover and she's keeping it a secret because she loved and trusted him with the protection plan that he made for both of them. 

"Do you have a dress to wear?" He asked. 

"Yeah. I am part of the reunion and we are catering. So, it will be a lot of work but the crews that I hired are good." 

"Hmm. I will be counting on the foods." Seth said as he raised her cup of coffee. 

"Great. By the way, I plan on giving you gifts and sending you foods but I don't know where you live." 

"It's on the southbound near here." He told. "You can just call me so I can pick it up." He winked. 

"Okay."

   Andromeda took her mom to the guest room downstairs so she could rest. She gave her clothing, food, and everything that she needed. She wanted her mom to stay at their house while they are still finding out what truly happened to her mom. 

   Once that Fiona is settled, had taken a bath and eaten, Andy stayed with her mom to investigate. She asked questions that the real Fiona could answer. And she's right. She's her real mother. But what truly happened to her? 

"Here's the tea." Zach offered them and then he sat down to listen to them. Fiona looked at him from head to toe and smiled. 

"Zach, you grow up so fast," Fiona muttered. "How's your mom?" 

"She's doing great." 

   Fiona nodded and exhales. 

"Tell us, who is the woman that's pretending to be you?" Andy asked as she held her mother's hand. "Mom, we don't have time. I need to know everything so Zach and I could settle this. Dad is now searching for you, investigating the impostor living with us. Dad, love you so much, so don't doubt him." 

"I know," Fiona muttered. "I can't go to your dad all these years. I was in trauma and I couldn't even remember myself and barely remember him and you and James. I was suffering from burns. That impostor poured to me." She muttered as her voice broke. "She keeps me captive for months until she learned my facial structure and everything, so she copied it and he and that man already planned it well, before." 

"There are times that I remember something and there are times that I don't. Someone helped me and bring me to a province. She just helped me with everything and now, I came to the city to see you or just got a glimpse of you, your dad and your brother." 

"Do you know that woman's name?" 

"Before she undergoes plastic surgery, I remember that woman's face. She's Aaron's ex-girlfriend who is so obsessed with him. She wanted him, money, fame and to rule our empire…"

"Who is she with?" 

"I need a scratch and to draw the face. My hand remembered it well."

"Okay." The maid gave them a canvas and he started drawing. 

   Andy waited until she finished it. 

   Zach's phone started ringing and he excused himself to answer it. 

"Dad?" Zach asked Aaron from the other line. 

"I found traces. They are planning to burn my woman alive. I hope that she's still alive and they haven't killed her yet." Aaron told. 

"Go home and talked to the imposter wife… then gather information."
