While the two women rushed to the vehicle, the noise of approaching footsteps increased in volume. Jennifer felt her heart racing in her chest as she looked behind her. With a crazed expression, Kain pulled Lisa back by grabbing her hand.“Kain, let go!” Lisa shouted, her voice trembling. “Leave us alone!”Kain's grip tightened. “You,” he spat, his voice slurred with alcohol, “you filled Jennifer’s head with ideas. You told her she could survive without me. You’re the reason she’s dead!”Lisa’s eyes widened with fear, but she managed to keep her voice steady. “You’re delusional, Kain. Jennifer ran away that day because you were a monster. You never loved her, and now you’re just mad because you lost everything when she died.”Kain’s face twisted with rage. “Shut up! You don’t know anything!” He lunged at Lisa, his hands wrapping around her neck.Jennifer stood frozen, her past trauma rendering her immobile.

The company’s stock plummeted, and competitors pounced, eager to exploit the vulnerability.“What the hell is going on?” Emily Beckett, now at the helm of her family’s company, shouted into the phone. Her voice was tight with panic. “Our stock is in freefall! We’re hemorrhaging money!”Jenifer, on the other end of the line, tried to remain calm. “We’re looking into it, Emily. It looks like a coordinated attack. Someone leaked sensitive information.”“Coordinated? Who would do this?” Emily demanded. “We’ve got enemies, sure, but nothing like this. This is… calculated.

The Romano Tower hummed with activity, but beneath the polished veneer, a silent war was brewing. James Beckett, fueled by ambition and resentment, had launched his attack.Jenifer, still struggling to navigate the complexities of corporate life, found herself increasingly drawn into the conflict. The board meetings were no longer just confusing; they were tense, filled with veiled threats and subtle power plays."Something's not right," she said to Alexander one evening, pacing in front of the panoramic windows. The city lights seemed to mock her unease.Alexander, engrossed in a stack of documents, barely looked up. "What do you mean?""The numbers," Jenifer said, gesturing vaguely. "They don't add up. There are discrepancies, inconsistencies. It's like someone's deliberately trying to sabotage the company."Alexander finally looked up, his eyes narrowed. "Sabotage? By whom?""I don't know," Jenifer admitted. "But I have a feeling it's connected to your father's death. Someone wants

A Wedding Vow of Vengeance Chapter 121: Gilding the Cage
The penthouse suite at the Romano Tower was less a home and more a gilded cage. Floor-to-ceiling windows offered a breathtaking panorama of New York City, but Jenifer, trapped within Isabella’s body, felt more like a display piece than a resident.She stood awkwardly amidst the minimalist décor, a stark contrast to the cozy, cluttered apartment she'd once shared with Kain.

I’m standing in the middle of a room the size of my old apartment. How could I be lost?”He raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement flickering in his eyes. “A figure of speech, Isabella. Are you settling in?”“Settling in? I have a walk-in closet bigger than my first job.

"Tell me everything."Isabella hesitated, her fingers nervously tracing the outline of the Gemini Heart pendant resting against her chest.
