Chapter 9
Torrence Mansion
Flashback back 15 years ago
Emily was on her way home when she heard cries of a small child. She saw an accident had happened and immediately called London's emergency number. Knowing the firefighters would take time to arrive, she checked the car. Inside, she saw a girl.
Emily spotted a pipe nearby, checked for water, and connected a hose. She put out part of the fire to save the little girl. By the time she carried her out, the girl had passed out. Emily rushed her to the nearby hospital.
When the girl opened her eyes, Emily asked, "Hey, how are you?"
"I'm fine, thanks. But what am I doing in a hospital, and who are you?" the girl asked.
"You actually got into an accident. Do you remember your name?" Emily asked.
"Yes, I'm Hazel Queens. And you are... my mom, right?" Hazel asked.
"Me?" Emily asked, shocked.
"Yes, are you my mom? How did I get into an accident?" Hazel asked.
"I'm not your mom. Try to remember who your family is, okay?" Emily suggested.
When Hazel tried to recover, she became busy and lost consciousness. The doctor said it's odd she doesn't remember; allowing her to force herself might be risky.
When Hazel woke up, she didn't remember what happened before passing out, except her name. Emily thought of leaving her at the orphanage but couldn't due to pity.
End of Flashback
"How come you're also bearing her son's name?" Hailey asked.
"Because I changed my surname name for her sake," Emily replied.
"Please, can you help me investigate about who her parents are?" Emily asked.
"Yeah, I'd be glad to. She is really nice, and you raised her well like a good mother should. I'm just sad and scared about her reaction by the time she finds out about the whole truth," Hailey said sadly.
"Me too," Emily replied.....
Boys penthouse
The three boys were chilling at their penthouse after school, busy playing video games.
"Yes, I won again!" Killian screamed.
"No let's play again," the two losers said at the same time.
"No we've had a rematch ten times already," Killian stated.
"Yeah, we know," Kenzie said.
"Hey, Kenzie, what's your plan for that crazy girl tomorrow?" Killian asked.
"You guys should be patient. You'll see the show, and it's gonna be a surprise like I said. So leave me be," Kenzie replied.
"I should probably head home. It's already so late, and Mum will probably scold me tonight if I'm a little bit more late again," Kenzie said, leaving for home.
"Okay bro,Levi and Killian said their goodbyes.
"Bye, you guys should probably head home too," Kenzie said, leaving the house completely.

Torrence Mansion
Kenzie screamed, "Hello everyone! I am home! The king of the mansion is home!"
His mom, Hailey, was not having it. "Motherfucking Kenzie, what time do you think you can come home?" she shouted, heading towards him with a flower vase.
"Mom, mom, please stop!" Kenzie said, running away.
"Who crowned you as the king?" Hailey screamed, chasing him.
Kenzie ran upstairs to his room, with Hailey hot on his heels. "Not today, Mom!" he shouted, locking himself in.
But then he saw her – Hazel, in his room. "Ah!" Kenzie screamed like he'd seen a ghost.
"What are you doing here?" they both shouted at each other.
Hailey intervened, "Kenzie mother fucking Torrence, open this door right this moment!"
"Mom, what's she doing in my room?" Kenzie asked.
"This is Hazel's room now," Hailey said, smirking.
Kenzie was shocked. "Mom, you mean she's your...?"
"Yes, she's my friend's daughter," Hailey replied.
Hazel added, "And this is my room as from now."
Kenzie lost it. "Mom, you can't just do this! I arranged everything in this room! I was the one who got it painted and decorated!"
Hailey was firm. "Hey, mr, I am your mom, not your little sister how dare you raise your voice at me You can decorate another room. This one is Hazel's now."
Hazel chimed in, "Yeah, go pick another room, Jerk."
Kenzie threatened, "Mark my words, you'll pay for what you've done to me."
Hailey dragged Kenzie out, "Good night, dear. You guys are going to school tomorrow."
Hazel smiled, "Good night, Mom."
Mom!, she fucking called you mum, Kenzie snapped, getting more annoyed.
Good night son, Hailey said going to her room.
Kenzie was fuming. "She's gonna start living under the same roof as me, Kenzie muttered to himself.
He had no other choice to take the room next to hers which is a little smaller than his old room.
He then called those who had assisted in decorating his old room so they could give it the same design as his old room.
Next morning, Hazel woke up, freshened up, and took a drug ass and a big sweater from the wardrobe. After dressing up, she heard a knock on her door.
"What do you want?" she asked, seeing it was Kenzie.
"I came to get my clothes. 'Cause I see you've stole some of my clothes too," Kenzie replied.
"It's 'merrier. You know you have great taste. I mean, see the clothes you wear, see how you arrange the room... I love taking things from people I... 'eat'. And I'm gonna take some of your beautiful clothes too," Hazel replied.
Hey, aren't you ashamed? Why would you wear boys' clothes? Even if you behave like one and dress like one, you're not supposed to wear a guy's clothes when he's neither your husband, brother, or boyfriend," Kenzie snapped.
"Take your clothes, but I'm not giving you this one. And I took one of your shirts," Hazel said, giving him his clothes except for a blue matching sweater and joggers she's wearing.
"Hey, that's my favorite! You can't just take it," Kenzie snapped.
"Now it actually caught my eyes, and I told you I'd take things from you... and because I like it, not only because I hate you. So there's no getting it back," Hazel replied.
"It's 'merrier... Actually, there's no point in arguing with you. I'm leaving," Kenzie said, leaving for his new room.
"Bye, Kenzie," Hazel said, but Kenzie had shut the door to his new room, which is next to hers.
Hazel got dressed and went downstairs for breakfast.
