The Daughter Of A Mistress 👩

Episode 1

Cynthia, was only 18 years old when she ran away from home.

Cynthia hailed from a wealthy family, but still, she felt unloved and unwanted.

Cynthia's step-sister, Amber, treated her horribly and it offends Cynthia to know that her parents weren't going to stop Amber from humiliating her.

It broke her heart to know that her mother especially wasn't going to do anything about it.

One cold Christmas day, Cynthia decided to visit her paternal grandfather who was living not too far away!

"Grandfather is the only one who loves me, it's obvious you and Dad, doesn't care about me, I don't want to spend Christmas here, I'm tired of being humiliated and I dont want your husband to yell at me again, I want to visit grandpa," Cynthia said to her mother who stared at her daughter almost in tears.

It was obvious that it broke her heart to hear her daughter refer to her father in that manner.

"I love you a lot my child, I wish I could tell you how much I love you, I want to explain everything to you right now but my hands are tied," Cynthia's mother thought, all she wanted that moment was to clear up the misunderstanding between her and her daughter.

But the promise she made to her husband, 10 years ago, held her back.

Cynthia's mother cleared her throat and said in a low tone

" Cynthia, you have my permission, go visit your grandpa"

Without saying a word, Cynthia left her mother's presence.

Soon she left the huge compound that she grew up in, and soon she arrived at her grandfather's house, on seeing his favorite granddaughter on Christmas day, the old man welcomed Cynthia in smiles.

"I knew you will come today, my child you are the only one that cares for me, I want you to know that my heart blesses you, you are blessed my child, you don't know how lonely I have been all morning," The old man said in smiles.

Apart from spending Christmas with her grandfather, Cynthia was there to find out from the old man, if she was her parent's daughter, as she had begun to feel like a stranger in her parent's house.

She couldn't understand why her step-sister Amber gets all their parent's love while all she got was penalties and scolding.

It was so disheartening for the Teenager as her parents especially her father always choose Amber over her. Her father would scold and chastise her because of Amber, and it's painful for her especially when she wasn't wrong.

She still couldn't understand why Amber was her stepsister.

So if Amber was her stepsister then her mother might not be her real mother, She had thought

An hour later, Cynthia and her grandfather had lunch together and after their meal, they sat down in the living room watching television. Some moments later,

Cynthia was elated when her grandfather surprised her with a Christmas present, when she opened it, she was thrilled when she saw a brand new smartphone.

She remembered how many times she had begged her parents for a smartphone, instead, her father bought a smartphone for Amber.

Cynthia hugged her grandfather happily as she thanked him

After some time, Cynthia threw in.

"Grandpa, Who is my real mother?"

And the old man replied "your mother of course"

"If she is truly my mother, then who is Amber's real mother?" Cynthia asked curiously.

And the old man replied again

"Amber's mother is long dead, she is your father's first wife, she died while Amber was just 5 years old" Grandfather replied and Cynthia was shocked

"I am 3 years older than Amber, if Amber's mother died while she was 5 years old, then that means I was 8 years old at the time, Grandpa if Amber's mother was my father's first wife, does that mean my mother was a Mistress at the time, I'm I THE DAUGHTER OF A MISTRESS?" Cynthia concluded.

Cynthia's grandfather didn't know much about the issue as his son had always been distant from him. Cynthia's father wasn't that close to his old man.

All the old man could remember was that he forced his son to marry Amber's late mother, at the time all the old man wanted was to cement his relationship with his best friend, who had a beautiful daughter, after much disagreement between the father and son, Cynthia's father agreed to marry Amber's late mother and in no time they bore Amber and five years after, Amber's mother died.

The old man was quiet and lost in thoughts that he had no idea that Cynthia had taken his silence for a "yes".

Grandfather was so lost in his thoughts that he did not know when Cynthia stormed out of the living room with her new smartphone.

When the old man came out of his thoughts, he was shocked to find out that her granddaughter had left without saying goodbye.

From that day, Cynthia's hatred for her parents increased, most especially, she hated her mother, for being A MISTRESS to a man that was already married.

Amber wasn't helping matters as she always looked for an opportunity to get Cynthia into trouble with her father.

One day, Amber was sighted eating her meal, while Cynthia was sitting down quietly, watching television.

A while ago, her mother had instructed her to do the dishes and she was done with that chore as she sat down quietly in the living room, watching television, and then Amber's voice came resounding from the dinner table.

"Hey you" Amber a 15 years old spoiled brat, said pointing to Cynthia.

"Hey you Cynthia, I'm calling you, can't you see that I am done eating, you should come over here and take these dirty dishes to the kitchen and make sure to wash them thoroughly " Amber entered rudely.

"Amber, are you mad? I'm I your mate, I am 18 years old now, I am three years older than you and you still have the gut to order me around, take your dirty dishes to the kitchen, and wash them, you are no longer a child and I can't be cleaning after you all the time" Cynthia entered.

Amber responded rudely as she cursed and insulted Cynthia.

"Cynthia you are useless! You are wicked, just like your mother, you are a curse to this family, you a useless DAUGHTER OF A useless MISTRESS, you an illegitimate daughter of this family, you might be older but I'm the only legitimate daughter of this family, all father owns will one-day become mine, wait and see" Amber said arrogantly while Cynthia was Speechless, as she stared at her troublesome stepsister shockingly.

Cynthia didn't say a word to Amber, she just ignored her and focused on the TV.

But Amber suddenly had an idea, she always loved it when their father would scold or rebuke Cynthia

Amber quickly ran into their father's bedroom to report Cynthia.

Mr. Stephen, their father was working on his laptop when Amber walked into his bedroom in tears.

Mr. Stephen always hated to see Amber in tears, her mother was long gone and He had vowed to be there for his motherless daughter.

No wonder, he pampered Amber and neglected Cynthia because he had thought, "Cynthia has her mother, while Amber has only me"

So he unconsciously pampered and spoilt Amber while he also unconsciously neglected and wronged Cynthia.

"My princess, what happened to you?" Mr. Stephen asked.

"It's Cynthia, she hit me, she slapped me and she hit my head on the wall" Amber lied.

At the mention of Cynthia, Mr. Stephen growled "Cynthia!"

He reached for his belt and headed straight to the living room.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.
