Phoebe’s POV

"Has she passed out?" I asked my mom when I saw Sheila lying unconscious on the floor. Sheila was really dumb to trust my mom and come here.

"Not yet, but the drug is starting to work gradually on her. Soon, she'll completely pass out."

"But how did you manage to drug her, Mom? I mean, didn't she switch the drinks?”

Mom chuckled and smiled proudly. "I'm more experienced with this kind of thing. I knew Sheila would be suspicious and try to switch our drinks, so I planned ahead."

"What did you do?" I asked, curious.

Mom smiled slyly, raising her hand in front of my eyes and shaking it. I rolled my eyes, thinking she was showing off her manicure. Wait a minute…..nails! Then I noticed the strange white color on the nail of her right index finger under the sunlight.

I burst out laughing. So that was how she did it. How could Sheila, that bitch, not have thought that the powder would be hidden in Mom's nails? Even though she thought she was being careful, she wouldn't have thou

When he saw she wasn't moving, he went closer and touched her, exclaiming, "You drugged her?""Keep your voice down! What's wrong with you?" I snapped at him."But I told you I could handle her. You didn't need to drug her. Sheila is very much in love with me and will do whatever I want."I rolled my eyes as he kept bragging about how he had Sheila wrapped around his finger and didn't need to drug her to achieve his aim."Enough! I've heard enough of your bragging," I cut him off. "Just carry her through the backdoor and take her to the guest house. I sent you the address earlier. I've paid for everything there, so you don't have to worry about any expenses. Take her purse with you and make sure you capture every angle well. This

    Andrew's POVI stormed out of the apartment, leaving Alfred and Elizabeth inside, and called Anna immediately. What exactly was going on right now? I got into the car and told the driver to head to the house while waiting for Anna to answer the call."Anna, I don't understand the message you just sent me. What do you mean by Sheila might be in trouble? Did someone break into the house? Where is Sheila? Is she safe? Talk to me!"I asked all the questions in my mind at once when she answered, worried about Sheila's safety. The mansion had top security guards from all over the country, so how did someone still break in?"Master, please calm down. No one broke into the house. Everything is okay here at the mansion," Anna replied calmly.I heaved a sigh of relief and then asked in confusion, "Then what did you mean in the message you just sent me? In fact, go and give Sheila the phone. I want to speak with her.""She's not at home, Master. I thought you knew?" she answered, equally soundin

As soon as I arrived, I went straight to the receptionist."Excuse me, have you seen this woman?" I asked, showing Sheila’s picture.The receptionist glanced at the photo and then at me. "I'm sorry, sir, but I can't give out information about our guests. It's against our policy."I kept my expression cold and motioned to the guards standing behind me. "Are you sure about that? I really need to know if she’s here."The receptionist's eyes flickered nervously between me and the guards. She hesitated for a moment, then sighed. "Let me take another look at that photo... Yes, I think I saw her earlier today. She's in room B12, Sir, let me get the spare key.”She took out the key and before she could rise and accompany us, I snatched it and glared at h

This wasn't the right time to speak with her yet.I went to the bathroom and freshened up, thinking about last night. How did I lose control of my urges? I'd be lying to myself if I said I didn't enjoy it, but the image of Evelyn lying on the hospital bed made guilt slowly creep up on me.For the first time in five years, I had cheated on my wife.

The way she screamed my name and rode me wild last night, grinding her hips rhythmically on me, made me almost lose my mind.I had not been gentle with her last night. It was as if

I kept telling her I had enough, but my sweet Granny wouldn't hear of it. "Sheila," Mom began, her voice gentle yet curious, "I've noticed Andrew dropping you off quite often lately. Are you two back together?" A warm blush immediately crept up my cheeks. I paused, folding a shirt, and then replied, "We're just taking things slowly, Mom. One step at a time." She looked at me with a knowing smile, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "I see," she said, her tone teasing. "Well, if you're really sure about giving Andrew another chance, then I give you my blessings." I felt a surge of happiness and gratitude. I walked over to her, enveloping her in a tight hug.

I had been buried in work, the weight of the business constantly hanging over my head. As I sat in my office, typing away on my laptop, a sharp knock on the door interrupted my concentration. Before I could respond, the door swung open, and my parents entered. My secretary rushed in after them, looking flustered. It was obvious she had tried to stop them, but they were having none of it. "Andrew," my father called out, his tone already tinged with annoyance. My mother followed behind him, her expression unreadable but no less intense. My secretary stepped into my office and began to explain. "I... I apologize, Mr. Walker. They insisted on seeing you immediately," she said nervously.

As soon as the plane’s door opened, the cold rush of air hit us, and I could see the flashing lights of police cars waiting on the tarmac. They were already here, prepared for whatever would unfold next. As we began to step off the plane, the sound of raised voices reached us. Turning around, I saw Andrew's guards holding Anna back, their grip firm as she struggled against them. "Please, I just need to talk to her!" Anna cried out desperately, her voice trembling. "I promise I don't mean any harm!"Andrew’s expression darkened as he stepped forward. “Take her away,” he ordered, his tone cold and unyielding. “I don’t want to see her again.” “No! Please, Mistress, just a moment! I need to say something to you,” Anna pleaded, her voice growing louder. Her tear-filled eyes met mine, and the despe

    Sheila's POVI didn’t know where Andrew was taking me, but I could see how furious and upset he was. His mood was dark, and I could feel the weight of his emotions without him saying a word to me. I didn’t even ask. There was something about him that made me want to follow quietly, unsure how I was going to calm him down, and not wanting to make his mood worse. He led me to a secluded part of the plane, a small, well-decorated room that looked almost like a personal cabin. Before I could ask any questions, Andrew shut the door behind us. His eyes, filled with a storm of emotions, met mine for a brief moment before he suddenly pulled me into his arms. I froze, caught off guard by the suddenness of his embrace. He pressed his head against my shoulder, holding me tightly as though trying to find some comfort. We stood there for a few seconds, both unsure of what to do. Hesitantly, I began to pat his back, uncertain of how to respond. “They turned against me! I trusted them so muc

How could Therese be Anna's daughter? I stared at her, disbelief flooding my veins. I hadn’t known Anna had a child, let alone one who was working in my mansion under false pretenses. “What’s going on, Anna?” I asked, my voice thick with anger and confusion. “How is it possible that your daughter has been working here without my knowledge?” Anna’s face twisted with a mix of guilt and fear, tears welling up in her eyes. She had never been one to break down easily, but this time, it was different. “She’s not really my daughter, Master,” Anna explained shakily, her voice quivering. “She’s my late twin sister’s child… I raised her as my own after my sister passed away. I’ve done everything I could to give her a good life, everything. I sent money whenever I could, supported her when she needed it. I

Everything is confirmed,” the voice on the other end said. “Good,” I replied with a nod before hanging up. It had taken a lot of effort to organize this, but I knew it would definitely be worth it. I turned to Alfred. “Are the movement schedules finalized? And the cars we'll be using once we land?” He nodded. “Yes, Master. Everything has been arranged as per your instructions. Everything has been confirmed.” “Excellent,” I replied, leaning slightly against the window frame. I allowed myself a small smile, one of satisfaction. The truth was, I knew Sheila wouldn’t have come willingly if I had asked her outright. She would’ve found an excuse, some way to evade me. That’s why I had to take matters into my own hands. It wasn’t ideal, but it was necessary. Alfred tilted his head, ob
