Once again, the room exploded in whispers, shareholders present exchanged looks and stares of disbelief and horror.

“Arrest?!” Tom shouted, as his face twisted in anger.

“You’re going to arrest me? That’s absurd. Who’s the one who filed the charge?”

He looked at everyone, but no one seemed keen on answering.

“It was I.” Ivory answered with a sweet smile. “Me, Ms. Remington.”

She stepped forward and flashed a smile at him. “I’ve recorded everything, from your insult, to the accusation you’ve thrown at me. Everything, and now,”

She leaned back, arms crossed, and her smile became more mischievous.

“You can rot in jail for slandering a person’s name and insulting her.”

Tom’s eyes widened and his face turned beet red. “You!” He snarled. “You bitch-“

Before he could finish, the law enforcement officers grabbed his arms and pulled him away.

“Let go of me! Don’t touch me, you fools.”

Ivory watched the scene before her with a small smile. This was just the beginning, there was a long road ahea

    “Twerp?!” Emma glared at Cameron, at that very moment, she was ready to jump at him and butt heads like they usually did back as kids.Much to her dismay, Cameron completely ignored her and solely focused on the more important person in front of him, Ivory.She too, seemed to ignore Emma angry crying and for a split second, all she did was stare at Cameron, still a bit frazzled from the sudden loss of distance between their faces.Her trance like state was broken when Cameron smirked, pleased that his presence was having an effect on her.“So, which is it?” He asked.Ivory adjusted, putting distance between them once again, and turned away.“Are you normally annoying, or is this an exception because you’re what…” She paused and eyed him, making sure that he could tell she had called bull on his earlier words. “Pursing me? Which is it?”Cameron chuckled, amused. It wasn’t everyday he met a lady who wasn’t impressed by his charm and looks.“Perhaps both,” he answered, and although Ivory

    Asher could sense the tension in the air. Minutes after Ivory had walked out and Cameron had followed her, the rest of them, Evangeline and Gadreel included, had settled in one of Golden Hours private room.But even after the drinks had been served, not one word had been spoken. Gadreel looked lost in his own thought, while Evangeline looked like she had several things to ask.And Asher...well, after a few more minutes, he couldn't take it anymore.Sighing, he stood up and decided to give the little couple of their group, some space."I'll go grab... something." He excused himself and without a second glance, walked out.The silence after that did not last a second longer. Finally given their privacy, Evangeline spoke up."You've finalized the divorce with Ivory? Why didn't you tell me?" She turned her attention to Gadreel, expecting an instant answer.However, he kept his gaze fixed on the content in his glass, swirling it around in constant circles without saying a word.He heard Ev

    “Let me take you home.” Cameron has said and at that point in time, it both sounded and looked like a bad idea.But did Ivory really have an option?With her car broken down and all ride seemingly avoiding that area, or charging hefty sums, she was stuck.And so, after much debate, she finally caved in and accepted the ride, and that was how she ended up in the passenger seat of Cameron’s car.The ride had been going on smoothly, the silence between them comfortable in a way that no one rushed to break.But then, Cameron, being who he is, decided to speak up.“So, you were married to Gadreel?” He glanced at her, noticing how her temperament visibly changed at the mention of his best friend. “I’m still having a hard time believing it.”“Well, believe it,” Ivory responded, a hint of sarcasm in her voice. “And drop it.”Cameron chuckled, but did not say a thing further, simply turning his attention back to the road, while Ivory shifted in her seat, crossing her legs, and looking out the

    Ivory was rooted in place with her eyes wide.That…that unmistakably, was the sound of a gunshot. Did that mean someone had gotten shot?The thought sent a sick feeling down her spine.“Ivy,” Cameron suddenly tugged her along, pulling her out of her trance like state. “We need to get out of here.”He pulled her behind him and began leading her away from their current location in hopes that he could get them far away from whoever had the gun.Ivory on the other hand, although she knew this was the rational thing to do, couldn’t help her doctor side that kicked in.“Wait,” She said, pulling to a stop and earning a frown from Cameron. “We can’t just leave like this. What if…what if someone needs our help?”Cameron’s frown increased and he grabbed her hand again. “If we don’t stay out of the way, we would be the ones in need of help.”He began dragging her away, but Ivory resisted, not budging an inch.“You can’t possibly be serious.” He muttered and shook his head. After a few seconds of

    Gadreel frowned at the doctor’s words. Taking a step forward, he seemed to totally forget about the conversation he was having with Ivory.“What do you mean by that? Earlier, you said she was stable, so why is she suddenly in danger?” He questioned.“Ms. Remington was indeed stable, but her heart suffered a sudden attack and for someone who suffers from a heart condition like Coronary Artery Disease, this could be fatal. That’s why I urge, the sooner we operate on her, the better.”Coronary Artery Disease? Ivory couldn’t help but frown at the doctor’s diagnosis.Evangeline doesn’t suffer from CAD, as most call it, but rather...“What she suffers from is Ischemic Heart Disease, IHD. It’s easily mistaken for CAD, but unlike CAD, it’s not caused by the build-up of plaque, but a sudden shortage of blood flow, due to an occluded vessel or narrowing.” Her words gained the attention of both men.“The best course of action in this case would be to-“ Before she could finish her diagnosis, Ivor

    The surgery lasted a total of 5 hours, but at last, the affected Valves in Evangeline’s heart had been repaired and her condition stabilized.Looking down at her first successful surgery in years, Ivory knew she should have felt pride and joy, but at this moment, the only thing she felt was a tinge of regret.Perhaps she should have left Evangeline to die. All the pain and suffering she had been through in life was all because of Evangeline.Then, wouldn’t that mean that if she had died, everything would have gone back to the way it has been before she and her mother came along?No, Ivory shook the thought off. Nothing can ever be the same, even if Evangeline were to die.“Good Job, V.” Kael, clasping her shoulder, praised.Ivory offered him a half hearted and tired smile. “Yeah, you too.” She glanced back at Evangeline for a few seconds before speaking again. “I’m gonna head out now…”Kael nodded. “Sure, you go on ahead, I’ll reach out to you once everything’s wrapped up here.”Ivory

    “I heard Mr. Ødegaar just got a divorce, but from the looks of it, he looks like a happy man. Seems his heart truly laid with her.” Someone said.“Ah, I envy Evangeline, but I also know she’s the perfect fit for Mr. Ødegaar. An A-lister actress and the city’s top billionaire. What a perfect fit!” Another squealed.“I’m sure they’re together, after all, Mr. Ødegaar has never brought anyone to these types of events. Not even his so called ex wife. If I were her, I would be ashamed.” Added another.This one has caught Gadreel’s attention and although his expression remained neutral, the corners of his eyes twitched.Ashamed? Those words seemed to bother him for some reason as Ivory’s face- against his will- flashed in his mind.Evangeline however, was the least but bothered. The more she listened to them, the more Evangeline knew her worth in Gadreel’s life.And she could have carried on listening and feeling this way, if not for the sudden shift in top.“Huh, who’s she?” Someone asked a

    “Wow Ivy,” Emma gushed, looking at the dress she had adorned for the auction event. “You look stunning.”“You think so?” Ivory inquired, standing in front of the mirror and taking in her reflection.For the auction, she had chosen to wear something subtle, not too shouting, at the same time, enough to leave an impression and draw the attention of those she wanted.It was a sleeveless black jumpsuit that had a deep V-neck, exposing just enough skin to be considered classy. Her hair, safe for a few strands of baby hair that defined the edges of her face, was tied up in a messy bun, and a black ribbon wrapped around the base.To finish her look, a pair of diamond earrings and a bracelet completed the outfit.“Ivy, I can’t even recognize you anymore.” Emma exclaimed, taking in the beauty that was her friend. “You look stunning, gorgeous, elegant, all these words are just not enough and I’m sure those bastards are going to be drooling.”Ivory chuckled at this. Just then, she got a text mes
