Genevieve

My eyes burned with a fiery determination as I stepped forward, my gaze locked on the bracelet encircling Olivia’s wrist.

It wasn’t just any bracelet; it was my mother’s, a precious keepsake that had no place on my stepsister’s wrist. Olivia’s smug smile only fueled her anger.

"Genevieve!"

My father's voice rang out, stern and commanding, but I didn’t care. Nothing was more precious than my mom’s memories.

With a swift, harsh motion, I seized Olivia’s wrist, ignoring her startled gasp. My fingers worked quickly, almost viciously, to unclasp the bracelet and wrench it free.

My eyes burned with rage and I glared at Rosalind. She must have done it and she thought I wouldn’t create a scene. Heck no, Was I gonna sit back and watch it.

Olivia's eyes widened in shock and pain, but before she could say anything, Rosalind’s voice cut through the tension.

"Genevieve, how dare you treat Olivia like that!"

she scolded sternly, stepping forward.

My glare was icy, and the guy quickly backed away, realizing Genevieve wasn’t available.The guy went away and I turned to Genevieve. She seemed to be so drunk but tried to hold her consciousness. I let out a deep sigh and grabbed her arm, my grip firm. "We’re leaving," I said, my voice low and controlled. I was not in the mood after seeing the guy and she flirting. How could she ? Suddenly Genevieve slapped my hand away, her eyes flashing with anger. "Get your hands off me!" she shouted loud enough to gain the attention of the bartender. I gave him a stern look and he started focusing on his work. "Go back to your fiancée, and leave me alone!"Ignoring her outburst, I grabbed her again, this time

    ...GENEVIEVE My eyes fluttered open, my vision blurry as I tried to make sense of my surroundings. The room was dimly lit, unfamiliar. My head throbbed and I tried to bear the sharp pain in my head. I sat up abruptly, my heart pounding as I took in the sleek modern furniture and the large window overlooking a cityscape I didn't recognize. My gaze snapped to the couch by the window, where Roman sat, staring at me intently. A frown appeared on my face and a gasp escaped my lips. Flashbacks of the previous night surged through my mind like a tidal wave. The argument, the confrontation, and the blur of events that followed. I glared at Roman, anger and confusion battling within me. I clenched my fists in anger and Without a word, I swung my legs off the bed and strode past him, my mind set on leaving.Just as I reached the door, Roman's hand shot out, grabbing my wrist. He spun me around and held my arm, pulling me close. " Genevieve " he pleaded, his voice low and urgent. I rem

    ...GENEVIEVE Me and Janice returned home, the familiar creak of the old wooden door signaling our arrival. We stepped into the grand foyer, its marble floors gleaming under the chandelier's soft light. Laughter floated through the air, guiding us towards the living room. There, we found our father, smiling warmly, surrounded by Rosalind, and Olivia and Emma, all seated in a circle of camaraderie."Genevieve," Rosalind called out, her voice a mix of surprise and sternness. I ignored her completely, hating her presence. Janice gave me a soft pat on my back and I sighed, turning to dad. "Father," I began, my voice steady, "I’ve made a decision. I want to join the company as CEO, as the true heir."A hush fell over the room, the surprise evident on the faces of Olivia and Emma. Rosalind’s eyes narrowed, her smile fading. I knew my this decision was a big shock for Rosalind specially. She did not expect me to take the position for which she was preparing Olivia. I noticed my fa

    ...GENEVIEVE I sat on the edge of my bed in my room, the soft light of the evening casting a warm glow on the walls. Janice sprawled on the armchair by the window, her face a mix of curiosity and concern.“So,” Janice began, breaking the silence, “you’re really going to take on Olivia and Rosalind for the company?”I nodded, my expression resolute. Of course , was that even a question ? I had to save anything and everything that my father and mother had built with love and their hard work. “I have to. It’s my right, Janice. Our right. I’ve worked too hard to let it slip away because of their schemes.”Janice sighed, running a hand through her hair. “I know. I just worry about what they might do. Rosalind isn’t going to sit back and let this happen.”I leaned forward, my eyes intense. Of course she was not that dumb to just sit back and watch me ruin her plan but I was not dumb to not know that she was not gonna do anything. Of course she was gonna plan against me and that’s wh

    ...GENEVIEVE As Olivia walked closer to Roman, her heels clicking on the polished marble floor, she slipped her arm through his with a possessive grace.I rolled my eyes at her possessiveness nature but what could I do either. She was of course his fiancé. The fiancé he never wanted. I simply smiled and took a step back, raising my hands in mock surrender. Olivia's eyes narrowed, a sharp glare directed at me which indeed was a sharp one. It was as if she was really his lover. "Stay away from my fiancé," she commanded, her voice cold and cutting. She thought I was trying to flirt with her Fiancé. A chuckle escaped my lips as I looked at Roman for a few seconds, meeting his sharp gaze. I chuckled, the sound light and airy, as if I found the whole situation amusing. Indeed I did find the situation funny. I mean she was defending Roman as if Roman was in love with her. "Don't worry, Olivia. I'm not interested in men twice my age," I retorted, my tone dripping with casual disdai

His hand tousling my hair as we stood close, the world around us fading into insignificance.Roman’s fingers traced a path along my jawline, his touch both firm and tender. I shivered, anticipation and desire coursing through my veins.I knew this was all wrong But I did not want it to stop. He leaned in, his breath hot against my skin, and kissed me deeply, passionately. I was taken aback but soon melted into the kiss, my body responding instinctively, a soft whimper escaping my lips. Roman pulled back just slightly, his lips brushing against mine, teasingly.“Is that all you want?” he murmured, his voice low and filled with promise. My breath hitched, my hands clutching at his shirt, pulling him closer. “No,” He could not just make me a mess and leave me desperate. No. If he was doing it, there was no wrong in taking a little advantage. I whispered, my voice barely audible, but f

My father, a commanding presence at the head of the table, smiled warmly at me as he spoke."Genevieve," he began, his voice filled with pride, "your idea for the upcoming project is nothing short of brilliant. I am truly impressed."I felt a surge of satisfaction and smiled at my father. "Thank you, Dad," I said, my eyes flicking to Rosalind and Olivia, who were seated across from me. The annoyance in their expressions was unmistakable, and it only heightened my sense of triumph.Rosalind, always quick to regain control of any situation, leaned forward slightly. "Well, congratulations, Genevieve," she said, her tone dripping with insincerity. "But on another note, Miss Blackwood has asked for the date of the marriage. We will all be going over to their house for a meet-up."My smile didn't falter. "That sounds lo

    ...AUTHOR’S POVGenevieve stood quietly, her hands clasped in front of her as she watched Olivia, who was seated on the couch with her head in her hands. Olivia’s shoulders shook with silent sobs, and her face was pale, a stark contrast to the fiery confidence she often carried. The raw vulnerability in Olivia’s posture struck Genevieve deeply. She wasn’t just looking at her sister who had caused her pain—she was looking at someone consumed by guilt, someone struggling with the consequences of their own choices.Genevieve’s heart ached, but not with anger. Despite everything Olivia had done—the lies, the betrayal, the manipulation—Genevieve couldn’t bring herself to hate her. She could see how much Olivia regretted it, how her actions had broken her just as much as they had hurt others.Taking a deep breath, Genevieve stepped forward.

    ...AUTHOR’S POVOlivia sat alone in her room, the weight of her conversation with Genevieve pressing heavily on her chest. The words Genevieve had spoken echoed in her mind: “I do love him, but I also know you love him more… I can do anything for my sisters.” At the time, Olivia had hugged her sister, even smiled in gratitude, but now, hours later, the guilt gnawed at her like a relentless tide, pulling her under.She couldn’t shake the image of Genevieve’s gentle smile, her selfless forgiveness. It was like a mirror reflecting everything Olivia had done wrong. Genevieve’s kindness had disarmed her completely, and for the first time, Olivia found herself questioning the choices she had made. She had spent so long justifying her actions, convincing herself that Roman was meant to be hers, that she had fought for love. But was it really love? Or was it greed, just like her mother had once admitted?Sighing deeply, Olivia reached for her phone, her hands trembling as she scrolled

Outside, the world was slowly slipping into twilight, but inside the house, the calm seemed to promise solace after the storm of emotions they’d all been through.Genevieve leaned back in her chair, sipping her tea thoughtfully, while Janice fiddled with her cup, her fingers absentmindedly tracing the rim. Rosalind, who had been unusually quiet for most of the evening, looked deep in thought as well, occasionally glancing at her daughters with an air of regret that none of them had yet been able to understand fully. The stillness was interrupted by the sound of the door slamming open.In strode Olivia, her face flushed with anger, her steps sharp and purposeful as she stormed into the

Genevieve’s father sat at the head of the table, sipping his coffee and reading the newspaper, his usual composed demeanor slightly relaxed as he waited for everyone to gather. Rosalind sat to his right, delicately arranging a plate of toast, while Janice, on his left, idly stirred her tea, her thoughts clearly elsewhere. The clinking of cutlery and soft rustling of the newspaper were the only sounds breaking the quiet morning.The soft patter of footsteps drew their attention, and Genevieve appeared at the entrance. She was dressed simply but elegantly, her hair loosely tied back, her face calm and composed. “Good morning,” she greeted softly, her voice carrying a hint of weariness as she took a seat across from her father.Her father smiled warmly, folding the newspaper and setting it aside. “Good morning, s

    ...AUTHOR’S POVGenevieve lay sprawled on her bed, her gaze fixed on the ornate ceiling above her. The dim light of the evening painted soft shadows across the room, the quiet hum of the city outside barely audible through the thick curtains. The bedspread, an intricate pattern of gold and cream, seemed to swallow her small frame as she sank deeper into the mattress. Her face was calm, but her red-rimmed eyes and the occasional twitch of her lips betrayed the storm she was enduring within.Isabella, Janice, and Amelia sat cross-legged on the bed around her, forming a silent semicircle. For the past thirty minutes, no one had said a word. The room was heavy with unspoken emotions, the kind that pressed down on your chest and made every breath feel labored.Janice absently picked at the hem of the blanket, her usually lively demeanor replaced by a pensive stillness. Amelia fiddled with her bracelet, the soft clinking of the charm breaking the silence now and then. Isabella, perc

    ...AUTHOR’S POVThe tension in the room was suffocating, the silence broken only by the sharp slap of a file being thrown onto the polished conference table. Everyone’s eyes turned to Xavier, who stood at the head of the room, his jaw clenched and his hand still resting on the now-disheveled pile of papers. His normally calm demeanor was gone, replaced by an edge of frustration and tension that was palpable.Roman gaze flickered between Xavier and the reports, confusion etched on his face. He leaned forward, his voice low and steady but laced with unease. “What is this, Xavier?”Xavier rubbed his face with both hands, the gesture betraying his frustration and hesitation. He looked at Roman with an intensity that made everyone in the room hold their breath. “These,” Xavier said, his voice taut, “are Olivia’s pregnancy reports.”The air seemed to thicken around Roman. His heart began to pound in his chest, the sound echoing in his ears. He froze, his confusion deepening into s

    ...GENEVIEVE I sat on the edge of the plush couch, my hands folded neatly in my lap, though my knuckles were white from the tension running through me. My head laid on the head of couch staring blankly at the wall while waiting for my father. The grand living room felt colder than usual, its ornate chandelier casting shimmering patterns across the marble floor. I was waiting for her father to arrive, the seconds dragging on endlessly. The soft ticking of the clock on the wall only heightened my restlessness. My heart was heavy, my mind a whirlpool of emotions she could barely contain.I looked toward the towering window, the golden hues of the setting sun doing little to warm the chill that gripped my chest. My thoughts wandered to the turmoil of recent days, the choices I’d made, the bridges I feared I’d burned.The sound of approaching heels echoed sharply through the quiet room. I turned my head, my posture stiffening instinctively. Rosalind entered the room with an air of

    ...ROMANI sighed deeply, sinking back into the worn leather of my chair. My gaze wandered aimlessly around my office, but my thoughts were far away, tangled in the delicate intricacies of my own schemes. The plan to trap Olivia in her game consumed me, its threads tightening like a web. The room was quiet save for the faint ticking of the clock on the wall, its rhythm a constant reminder of the time slipping through my fingers. My fingers drummed idly against the edge of my desk, my mind running through every possible move and countermove.The sudden creak of the door startled me. My head snapped up, my thoughts abruptly severed, and he turned toward the source of the intrusion. The sight of her standing in the doorway made my heart stutter for a beat. Olivia. She stood there as if she owned the space, her expression unreadable yet tinged with a faint, unsettling confidence. My whole body filled with anger but I remained calm. The soft hum of tension in the room grew louder.

I sat in one of the large chairs in the conference room, my elbows resting on the mahogany table, my hands clasped tightly together. My face was pale, my eyes shadowed from a sleepless night, and my usual air of confidence had been stripped away, leaving only raw vulnerability. Genevieve’s father, sat at the head of the table, his stern expression softened by a glimmer of sadness. He sighed deeply, the sound loud in the silence that followed. “Roman,” He began, his voice low but steady, “why did you cheat on my daughter?”I flinched as though struck. I shook my head quickly, my words tumbling out in a frantic attempt to defend myself. “I didn’t,” I said, my voice strained. “I swear I didn’t. I—” I paused, running a hand through my already disheveled hair. “I was drunk. I don’t even know how Olivia ended up there. I know I didn’t… I would
