Chapter 4 - The Four-Year Lie
To understand how Adrian was kept in the dark for four years, you had to look back to the night his life changed forever.
Maya and Adrian had been raised together as childhood friends. But five years ago, after a tragic accident took Maya’s older sister, Maya took in her sister’s newborn infant, Leo, promising to protect him with her life.
At the same time, Adrian was rising rapidly as the heir to Vance Enterprises. Vanessa, an ambitious socialite whose family firm was secretly drowning in debt, targeted Adrian as her financial salvation.
When Vanessa discovered that Adrian was helping Maya raise little Leo—and that Adrian was deeply in love with Maya—she orchestrated a ruthless plan.
Vanessa bribed a local clinic to forge medical documents claiming Leo was born with a contagious blood condition that required long-term isolation outside the state. She then intercepted every letter, phone call, and visit Maya tried to make to Adrian.
