Dressed in an exquisite red gown, Rachel looked so seductive that she knew she would make heads turn wherever she passed.After her confrontation with Elena, Daniel had stopped speaking to her and worse he kicked her out of her own company! Even though she was the one that made him the CEO. Heck, she thought Daniel loved her, but he just played her. He used her and sucked her dry. Now that she was of no use to him, he discarded her.Her father had been on her neck in regards to the company. It had barely been two years since the company was handed down to her, but she lost it all in the name of love.Living without money has never been a life she thought she would ever experience, but Daniel has made her go through that.Knowing how heartless Daniel was, she knew he wouldn't even let her near his office not to talk or listen to her. Thus she made up her mind.Daniel had previously sent her to seduce Derek Ferguson, which she did perfectly until the sudden appearance of the Braun’s elde
ABOUT AN HOUR EARLIER.Old Mr. Ferguson sent Gemma to Nora’s room to keep her company and somehow retrieve her phone. Knowing that she was the victim, he was well aware that she might not be in support of their plan. He just needed her phone to make every single plan of theirs work out well.Soon, Gemma emerged from Nora’s room with her phone, unknown to Nora, then headed back into the room as requested by the old man. Deep down, she wanted to help out. She sincerely wanted to put Rachel in her place. To her, Rachel was just like Elena and anyone like that deserved to be dealt with.“I've sent you everything I have on her,” The butler informed Derek, who bobbed his head without saying a word.Looking at him, old Mr. Ferguson understood the look on his face. He has been with his grandson right from birth and he could definitely decipher every single look of his.“Don't do anything other than what we planned for her,” he warned Derek, who lazily dragged his gaze in his direction and nodd
Rachel could feel her head ache. She was suffocating and worse, her entire body was aching as if she had been in a rigorous activity.Yawning, her eyes fluttered open and the first morning rays hit her eyes, making her shut it. It felt as if she had earlier caught sight of someone, it made her quickly open her eyes hurriedly.“What happened last night?” She thought.Her brain was disheveled.Once she finally opened her eyes, she gazed in the direction she saw someone earlier. And truly, someone was there, fully clothed. It was Derek.The sight of him made every ounce of sleep in her eyes clear instantly.She yawned, and then she noticed something.“She wasn't putting on any clothes!” “They did it on the floor! Derek must have missed her badly,” she thought.Her lips curved into a beautiful smile, thinking she somehow succeeded last night.Now she has something to hold against him. She can always show up with a pregnancy test result and make his wife leave.“I don't think you should be
Anna was in shock at Gemma’s words to her. No one has ever dared to say those words to her face, not even her own father. Her gaze went to the floor in utter shame, taking a step back, she quietly left the room, almost making Gemma feel bad. But knowing she told her the truth, Gemma was quick to get hold of her swaying emotions.“I want to be left alone,” Nora finally said after being quiet for a long time.At her words, the old man, the butler and Gemma headed for the door.“Gemma, please stay,” she muttered, her voice low, more like a whisper.Gemma nodded and went back to her on the bed.“I'm sorry for telling them about it, Nora,” Gemma genuinely apologized.Nora sighed.“I wasn't thinking straight earlier. I was blinded by fear that I forgot how much my family love me and the things they are willing to do for my sake,” Nora sighed.She handed the phone to Gemma, “Delete the videos, I can't look at them.”“Nora, I think it's best if you delete them yourself. You can see it as del
Since the urgent shareholder’s meeting the day before messed up the order of events, Gemma knew she'd had to trade carefully. Her second chance and the little steps she had taken for her revenge so far had altered the way a lot of things should go. Getting to the company that day, she found her way to the company’s studio where the photo for the launch of the new product would be taken. When she got to the door, she could hear camera shutters and orders that seemed to be coming from the company's photographer. She wondered what was going on. It has always been the company's policy that only the model’s photo will be taken during photoshoots for the launch of a new product. Since yesterday’s photoshoot didn't take place, it was definitely today. Wanting to find out what was going on, she pushed the door open and walked in. “Elena?” she muttered, seeing her little sister in the dress she was supposed to wear for the shoot. At a side was James and Sylvia who seemed to be supervising
Derek could recall when he left Gemma alone to go get ice to tend to her face. Samuel had approached him then.“I have a little information about your wife,” the butler had told him, piquing his curiosity.“What information do you have this time, Samuel?” He had asked.Having known the butler, he was well aware that whatever information he had was legit and genuine. Back when he was in college, he and Daniel Roberts had been great friends. But one day he suddenly came back home and the butler told him to cut Daniel off, that the latter wasn't his friend. Back then, he had hesitated, the man that the information he had was wrong. But then barely a month after they graduated school, Daniel betrayed him, worse, he quoted they both were never friends but rivals. He had only befriended him because he knew it would be of benefit to him.After that heartbreaking betrayal, he began to believe every single info the old butler provided and not one has turned out to be a lie.“The young lady was
“I'm sorry you had to go through all that,” Derek apologized to Gemma for the hundredth time that day.They were already out of the car and were seated on a seat set up around the seaside. The location Derek had chosen was a private beach owned by his family. He wanted to spend a quiet time with his woman, giving her the peace and quietness he knew she craved. Ever since they got married, she hadn't had any time for herself. Her day has always gone from one issue to another. A perfect relaxation would help her get a hold of herself and be able do more than she had already done.“I'm already over it, Derek,” she gave out a sad smile, stretching her legs.Derek sighed. “Here, have some wine,” he poured some drink into the glass.Gemma lifted the glass to get mouth.“We have to clink it first,” he said sternly, making her smile.“Of course, Mr. Ferguson..”“To our unborn kids,” Derek raised a toast.Gemma was stunned, was this man serious?“Excuse me?” She looked at him.Derek’s facial e
“The ugly scars on my thighs. James made them,” Gemma revealed.“Come here, Gemma,” James's voice resonated in her head, making her grip on Derek tighten.“Raise your dress.”Her traumatic memories came crashing down on her. Tears trailed down her face as James placed the tip of a burning cigarette on her thigh.“Scream and you'll get it worse tomorrow,” he warned. And just like that, James used her to put out his cigarettes each time he smoked. All to make her unattractive for any man. Apparently, it was her lesson for reporting him to their parents.She was 18 when it all started. James had snuck into her room at night and tried to get her to sleep with him. But then she refused, running out of the room and eventually spending the night in the storage room. It went on for a few more days and she decided it was time to tell Sylvia.“Mother, James has been visiting my room at night. He touched me and tried to make me sleep with him,” Gemma could see her young self complaining to Sylv
