OLIVIA
Episode 46
Nelson’s POV
The spies I a-ssigned to follow the First Lady have been giving me disturbing reports lately. It looks like the First Lady wants something from Olivia but what could it be??!!
Olivia is just from an average family so she wouldn’t want anything that involves money from her. Olivia came in almost immediately.
“Welcome baby” I said smilingly
“Thanks” she replied tiredly
“Awwn…….my baby is tired, I just thought it will be better if you went to see her first and rest afterward. I’m sorry, you can rest now”
I went closet to her, collected her bag and made her lie on the bed while I sat beside her and stro-ked her hair.
“Are you going to tell me what you discussed with the First Lady or you will take a nap first”
“We didn’t really talk about much things. We talked about her childhood days, she’s really fun to be with. She’s also nice, she removed the dirt that was on my hair before she hurriedly left. That seemed somehow strange though.” she concluded.
“What did she remove from your hair?” I asked curiously
“It was a piece of paper I think”
“A piece of paper? Did you do anything on paper today?”
“No, I also don’t know how the paper got to my hair” she answered confused
“Did the paper look neat or rou-gh?”
“It was really neat and white. That’s all that happened, I want to sleep now”
“Alright love, I’ll be right beside you when you wake up” I said giving her a light peck on her li-ps while she drifted off to sleep
I don’t quite un-derstand what the first lady is up to. I’m sure there was nothing on Olivia’s hair so why did she lie about it?
I thought de-eperly for a while before something occurred to me. If she had tou-ched any other part of Olivia’s body apart from her hair, Olivia would have known since she was conscious.
The simple meaning of this is that she probably took some strands of Olivia’s hair but what does she need it for?
I mean she has Stephanie already and if I remember clearly, she never said she gave birth to twins so there’s no way she would want to carry our a DNA test on her, right?
I think there’s still some secrets I need to find out, I just hope those spies are capable.
Back to my pretty girlfriend, she looks really innocent in her sleep. Can’t believe she’s mine alone.
Park Min Shin’s POV
I’ve finally gotten a hold on Olivia’s hair. When I told her something was on her hair, it was a lie. I took the paper out of my bag and removed some strands of her hair before showing the paper to her. I’m a genius.
All that’s left now is for me to conduct the DNA test, I don’t know why I’m nervous. I just hope everything turns out well.
I quickly went home to avoid suspicions, I will probably do the test tomorrow.
“Welcome home Mom” Chang Min greeted
“Oh my world! I’ve missed my baby so much. When did you arrive?”
“About an hour ago”
“And you didn’t think it was necessary to inform me?” I said pretending to be hurt
“No Mom, you know that’s not true. Okay it won’t happen again” he said in defeat
“Promise?”
“I promise” he said and I hug-ged him ti-ghtly
“You look like a baby when you pout your li-ps, you know that right?” Chang Min teased
“Did you just call me a baby?”
“N-No Mom” he stuttered already scared and that’s bcos I don’t like being called a baby
“It’s okay, I will be in my room. What of Jimin?”
“He’s also back but he went out”
“Okay. Won’t you say hi to your sister?”
“I’m still searching for my sister” he answered coldly
Here we go again, just that he’s right this time but he isn’t aware.
“What about Stephanie? Isn’t she your sister?” I further asked
“She’s not my sister. I made some investigations and found out she isn’t our lost Min Jin.
You can believe me if you want to but as for me, I’m still searching for my lost sister” he said and left
I just hope Chang Min doesn’t ruin everything for me bcos I don’t want Stephanie to find out yet.
Olivia’s POV
Today is the second day for the practical aspect of the contest. After tomorrow, the lucky people will be announced, I’m so nervous.
I quickly took my bath and prepared for the contest. My dress was kind of simple but Nelson insisted I use a little make over.
I would agree the make up added to my beauty but it still doesn’t change the fact that I don’t like it.
When I was finally ready, I and Nelson went to the hall where the contest was to take place as usual.
“Good day contestants! I will a-ssume all of you here checked your email before coming here so as to know if you made it to this round or not.”
I guess all of them did except me and that’s because my Nau-ghty boyfriend won’t let me check it.
He only told me I made it to this round but he doesn’t want me to know my exact position so that it won’t affect me. If it’s in a positive or negative way, I don’t know.
The MC as usual asked us to go to the back of the stage and we performed according to our tag numbers.
Within few hours, we were done with our performances and this time around I wasn’t weak or tired.
I thought about what Nelson said and I’ve decided to train myself to become a hard-working K-Pop idol in the future.
“How was it?” Nelson asked
“It was okay” I replied
“Looks like someone has decided to change”
“Yes, thanks to the best boyfriend in the world” I said sarcastically causing Nelson to giggle.
“I only told you the truth your highness, don’t be upset”
“I was only joking but sincerely you’re the best among the best”
“Awwn…. I’m blus-hing”
“Meet me at home after you finish blus-hing” I said and started walking away while Nelson ran a bit to catch up with me.
“Mean girl” he said when he got to me
“Thanks! At least you love me that way” with that, we went to his hotel.
“Olivia, tomorrow is going to be the last day of the contest and I want you to put in your best as if this will be the last time you will dance. You will make me proud, right” Nelson said when we got home.
“I will try my best”
“Okay, I trust and believe in you. So should we practice now or you want to take a nap first?”
That’s one of the things I like about Nelson, he’s really considerate and loving.
“Let’s practice”
We practiced for about 3 hours before we finally drew the curtain. I was the one that practiced, Nelson only checked my dance steps.
Tomorrow is going to be a big day

Episode 47
Bella’s POV
I’ve finally arrived in Korea. The last contest is going to take place tomorrow around somewhere here so I will just check it out before focusing on the reason why I’m here.
The two reasons are: to check up on Nelson and also ex-pose Stephanie’s true colors.
My evidence is not really strong but at least it will go a long way in putting doubts in their mind.
I was able to get the voice record of Stephanie and the doctor but I wasn’t able to get it.
If luck is on my side, I will probably see Nelson at the contest tomorrow. He might be bored and just decide to see the contest live.
The D-Day (Final day of the contest)
Olivia’s POV
I can’t believe the long awaited day is here, the day that would determine if my dreams of becoming a K-Pop idol will actualize this year.
I’m sure the most nervous person on earth. Nelson as usual did what he knows how to do best.
He called make-up artists to do their work and I must commend them.
“Don’t tell me you’re nervous” Nelson said on our way to the event making me scoff.
“So I’m not supposed to be nervous?”
“Yes. Nervousness results to failure. Just believe you can do it and have faith in yourself, okay?”
“Okay, thank you”
“So, take in a de-eper breath now” I did as he said
“Good. Make me proud” he said when we got to the entrance of the hall.
“I will put in my best”
As usual, we moved to the back of the stage while the audience sat in the hall.
The contestants left were just one hundred out of eight hundred that started so today, fifty people will be out and the rest fifty will become K-Pop trainees.
We began the contest and before we knew it, we were done.
“Ladies and gentlemen” we heard from the blaring speakers.
“We’ve finally come to the end of this contest. Usually, the result is supposed to be announced tomorrow but we will be announcing the one for this year today so that you guys can know your faith and the lucky ones will start preparing for their training.
You will go on a break of two hours while we finalize the result of the contest. Remember you can’t exceed two hours, you can leave now.
I slowly left the hall and went over to where Nelson was.
“You did great. Let’s go to a restaurant” Nelson suggested
“Alright”
We ate and had fun a little, before we knew it, two hours was almost up so we went back to the hall.
“Check your E-mail. The lucky winners should wait behind while the rest are permitted to go to their various homes.”
Everyone of them logged into their E-mail while I stood up and went out to meet Nelson. I don’t know why he won’t let me check it myself.
“Nelson let me check it now please”
He logged in to my account and gave the phone to me.
“What?!!! You mean I came first out of eight hundred contestants? No, I’m probably not seeing things clearly.
“Nelson, I can’t find my position” I said confused while he gave me the “are you okay?” look
“This is it” Nelson said pointing at it
“Are you trying to say I came first out of eight hundred contestants?”
“Of course. My baby is a genius”
“Okay okay, everyone settle down” the MC said while I gave Nelson the phone and quickly went back inside.
“It hasn’t been easy all throu-gh. Some people put in their best but it wasn’t enough so those of you that won’t should consider yourself lucky.
We’re going to award the first five contestants so if you hear your name, kindly step forward” the MC said.
Almost immediately, the names were called and of course I was among.
The MC started from the fifth and when it got to my turn, he paused and stared at me for a while before speaking up.
“I want all of you here to applaud this girl. No, that won’t do. Give her a standing ovation.
She came from England and surpa-ssed everyone’s performance, I wonder what the Koreans we’re doing.
Ever since we started this contest, she maintained the first position all throu-gh. I’ve never seen this kind of great performance in my entire life.
The last time I saw something close to this was when the First Lady was still a K-Pop idol.
Your parents must be really proud of you” he said turning to me.
“How old are you”
“I’m 17 sir” I answered politely
“Ohh…. that voice that melts souls. Are you done with college?”
“No sir”
“Okay. Congratulations! I wish you all the best and I must commend your parents for bringing up such a beautiful and bright young girl.
I must also commend you for your ha-rd work. Keep it up” he said giving me a thumbs up.
My prize was giving to me and I was crowned as the winner.
“You are free to go home now but remember you are to be back within 2 months to begin your training. Good luck” he said while we left the hall.
I wonder what Stephanie’s position was because she wasn’t among the top five.
I had just gotten outside the hall when journalists and some of the contestants surrounded me.
“Miss Olivia, how do you feel being the overall winner of this contest?”
“Have you been part of a K-Pop group?”
Different questions were just popping from different angles and my head was beginning to get muzzy. Is this what celebrities face?
I was still struggling to keep my eyes open when I noticed that the attention of some people was now elsewhere.
Is the First Lady around or what? I didn’t wait for long before I got my answer.
Nelson walked straight to me in the midst of the journalist with some of his bodyguards.
“My girlfriend isn’t used to this kind of things so if you have anything to ask her, we can go to somewhere cool and all of you will be permitted to ask her one question each.” With that said, Nelson took my hand and we left their midst with the help of his bodyguards.
“Ohh my God… She’s so lucky. Just few minutes ago, she was crowned the overall winner of the contest and now she’s Nelson’s girlfriend?”
“I think she was born on Sunday, she has all the good things of life. I’m envious”
I kept hearing different comments from different people and I knew instantly that my life would change from that moment.
Park Min Shin’s POV
I watched the contest from home and I couldn’t help the tears that rolled down my cheeks especially when Olivia’s parents were being praised.
My daughter. Yes, I found out last night that Olivia is my daughter and not Stephanie. Is she ever going to forgive me?
I haven’t told anyone about it yet because I can’t even seem to get a hold of myself yet. No wonder why I always felt complete whenever I was with her.
My husband came in almost immediately after the contest and I quickly wiped my tears.
“I saw you crying so you don’t have to wipe the tears. What’s wrong?”
“I…. I wasn’t crying. Something flew into my eyes” I stuttered
“Min Shin” he drawed making me burst into tears
“What’s wrong?” he stood up and came closer to me
“Our… l.. o.. st daughter, I f.. ou.. und her” I just hope he was able to comprehend what I said
“W… Where” he stuttered
“She’s among the contestants, her name is Olivia”
“Isn’t that the girl that won the contest?”
“She’s the one”
“Then what are we waiting for, let’s go and see her”
“It won’t be that easy. Nelson is with her and I’m sure he won’t release her to us. I think we have to go to England to see her parents”
“Have you been able to find out why the doctor said Stephanie is our daughter when she’s not?”
“Partially. The investigators said there was a deal between Stephanie and the doctor but they can’t find any evidence because someone tampered with it. They promised to try their best.”
“Okay then, wipe your tears. We have to prepare for our flight to England” my husband said while I just nodded
“Ma’am someone is here to see you” one of the maids came to inform me.
“I don’t have an appointment with anyone but who is the person?”
“It’s a young lady ma’am” the maid replied
“Bring her in” I said thinking it was Olivia but I was disappointed when I discovered she wasn’t the one.
“Good afternoon young lady” my husband said trying to make her feel at home
“Afternoon sir” she answered politely
“So how may we help you?” my husband further asked
“I will be the one helping you sir and ma. My name is Isabella and it’s a plea-sure meeting you” she said leaving I and my husband confused.
How does she wants to help us? I guess we will just have to listen to whatever she has to say.
