Chapter: CHAPTER 79The scandal had reached a fever pitch. Every news outlet, gossip blog, and social media platform was ablaze with the latest accusations against Michelle. The fabricated stories of her alleged multiple affairs had sent the internet into a frenzy, and the comments were ruthless. "She played us all! A gold digger through and through!" "How does Raymond Hawthorne not see it? She’s using him!" "Disgusting. She’s got the face of an angel but the heart of a liar." Michelle sat stiffly on the couch in Raymond’s penthouse, her hands clenched around her phone as she scrolled through the never-ending barrage of hate. Each comment felt like a dagger, chipping away at the fragile sense of control she had left. Hitting her in the chest so hard that it made it difficult for her to breathe properly. She flinched as the news channel on the TV played yet another segment dissecting her supposed infidelity. "The evidence is mounting," a smug anchor declared. "While Michelle Davenport has denied thes

Chapter: CHAPTER 78The tension between Michelle and Raymond lingered in the air like an unspoken challenge. Though he had chosen to believe her, the weight of doubt still hung in his gaze and Michelle could see it. The scandal had placed them on shaky ground, almost ruining their marriage, but something else was shifting beneath the surface—an understanding, a newfound unity between them forged by adversity. Raymond had always been guarded, his emotions locked away behind a wall of discipline and control. But as they sat in the dimly lit penthouse that evening, going over every possible angle of the scandal, Michelle noticed a change. He was listening, really listening. Not just questioning her or doubting every word she said, not just assuming the worst—he was trying to understand her perspective. "I had my team run an analysis on those pictures," Raymond said, his voice steady but thoughtful. "They’ve been altered, as you claimed. The original versions were photoshopped to create a narrative that do

Chapter: CHAPTER 77The morning air was crisp, but the heat from the media storm brewing around Michelle was suffocating. The internet was ablaze with scandalous headlines, all pointing fingers at her. "Michelle Davenport Caught in Cheating Scandal!" "Raymond Hawthorne’s wife Exposed in Secret Affair!" She stood in front of the television in the penthouse, her face pale as news anchors analyze every fabricated detail. Pictures— misleading—flashed across the screen, showing her in what appeared to be intimate moments with a man she barely recognized. A man who, upon closer inspection, had been strategically placed in her presence at charity events and galas over the past year. It was a carefully orchestrated illusion designed to destroy her. The pictures were obviously photoshopped. She didn't even know the man they claimed she had an affair with. Her hands trembled as she grabbed her phone. Dozens of missed calls and texts bombarded her screen. Friends, colleagues, and even distant acquaintances all

Chapter: CHAPTER 76Millie sat alone in the shadowed corner of an upscale but discreet lounge, her eyes glittering with a venom that had been slowly building over the past few days, she was becoming really impatient. The lights were low and the murmur of conversation around her barely registered as she tapped her fingers impatiently on the polished mahogany table. Today was the day she would make her next move—a move that would shake Michelle’s world to its very core. Earlier that day, she had arranged a secret meeting with someone she knew would understand her frustration. Someone who had dealt with Michelle before and knows how to handle her. It wasn’t long before the door to the private back room opened, and Alex Westwood walked in. His dark eyes held a mix of weariness and ruthless determination—a far cry from the smug smile he had worn during previous encounters. The same Alex who had warned Michelle with icy words that “some secrets should stay buried.” “Millie,” he greeted curtly, taking a seat

The investor’s unexpected withdrawal had sent shockwaves through the board and made everyone uneasy, whispers of financial instability swirled like autumn leaves in a storm. In the midst of all this chaos, Raymond and Michelle found themselves pushed into an alliance—one born of desperation and a shared determination to protect what they had built. Raymond paced in his glass-walled office, the city skyline a distant reminder of everything at stake. His jaw was set, his mind racing with strategies to counter the attack. Every number on his spreadsheets, every memo, seemed to remind him that Eleanor’s machinations were driving the company toward ruin. Yet, in the midst of it all, he couldn’t ignore Michelle’s steady presence. Despite the coldness and doubt that had crept between them, he now saw her in a different way, in her the spark of a brilliant strategist—someone whose instincts and intellect could sa

Chapter: CHAPTER 74The following morning, the tension of last night still hung in the air like a heavy fog over Hawthorne Enterprises. Raymond had received the anonymous message on his private phone—“Your mother is playing a dangerous game. If you want to save your company, meet me tomorrow. Alone.”—and had spent a sleepless night wrestling with whether to go or not and its implications. Now, as the first rays of dawn filtered through the penthouse windows, he made his way to the boardroom with determination. Inside the boardroom, silence had fallen over the gathered executives just as Raymond made his way inside the room. The crisis meeting had been called abruptly, and whispers filled the space as everyone awaited the reason behind the unexpected meeting and Raymond’s address. At the head of the long mahogany table, Raymond’s eyes swept over their tense faces.
