Melinda sensed Ethanโs body tense up, his focus abruptly shifting away from her. She quickly halted as her gaze followed Ethanโs to the door entrance. On seeing Amelia, her eyes widened in disbelief as she quickly stood up, her cheeks blushing in shame.Amelia regained herself, her chest heavy with the weight of what she had just seen. Tears flowed down her cheeks as she took a step back. Without saying a word, she turned and ran away, her high-pitched cries echoing through the hotel corridors.โโThe soft, tingling sound of a spoon striking a glass broke through the low murmur of conversations, drawing everyoneโs attention to the head of the table. Mr. Silas Blackwood cleared his throat, his presence commanding the room. โThank you all for coming, Iโm honored,โ He started, his tone smooth and composed, carrying an aura of quiet authority.โTodayโs my sixty-fifth birthday, and I couldnโt be more grateful to celebrate this milestone with every one of youโฆ my family.โHe paused, his

The atmosphere became heavy with unease, the silence suffocating. Everyone in the hall stared at Ethan, their gaze sharp and crammed with rage beneath, waiting to erupt depending on what he said next.Ethanโs eyes fiercely locked on Ameliaโs mother as he broke the silence, his voice cold and firm. โMrs Deborah,โ he growledโฆโI am not marrying your daughter and you need to get that into your head!โThe calm in the room immediately erupted into chaos with Ameliaโs brother, Robert, and her father, Dash, jumping on their feet almost at once, their faces distorted in severe rage. Their voices echoed loudly, engulfing the hall with their outrage. โHow dare you speak to my mother like that?! Are you mad?!โ Robert yelled, his fists tightening at his sides.โDo you even know whose wife you're disrespecting?!โ Mr Dash roared, his voice soaked in venom as he trembled with rage.Ethan stood tall, unfazed, and unbothered. He didn't flinch or move, he just stood there, his eyes blazing red with a

Melinda sat motionless, her hands pressed against her blistering skin, eyes wide with disbelief. โYouโฆ You slapped me?โ she whispered, her voice trembling as she spoke.โAnd Iโll slap you again if you push me!โ Amelia sneered, her face twisted in rage. With her hands clenched by her sides, she stepped closer, dominating over Melinda.โYou truly believe he loves you?! Girlโฆ he feels sorry for you. You really think someone likeโฆyou, would be taken seriously by him? A billionaire and CEO of the biggest bank in this country?!โEvery single word Amelia spat out pierced Melindaโs soul as tears kept flowing down her cheeks, her gaze locked on Amelia.Amelia wasn't finished, she drew closer to Melinda, and with her voice leaking with contempt, she spat,โAsk him for the picture of his late wife, Jessica. Sisโฆyou don't come close! He has a type and you're at the very bottom! Once heโs done with you, heโll spit you out like the trash you are!โAmelia adjusted herself, her eyes scanning Melinda

โI-I needed the money!โ Karen blurted out, breaking the heavy silence that descended the hall. Everybody's gaze was fixated on her, all filled with cold, accusatory glares.โW-who wouldn't! I was in dire need of money so I took a littleโฆThat doesn't automatically mean I have anything to do with it!โ She stuttered as her tone increased with every word. โIt felt like a miracle, and I was desperate so I took it.โ She continued, her words spilling out in a rush, filled with defensiveness.The atmosphere in the room felt tense as everyoneโs haze remained locked on her, judging her. To them, her statements sounded like someone who was mentally deranged.Ethan was the first to break the silence. โMr. Collins, you heard her right? This woman knows about the child trafficking and money laundering cartel. Nobody in their right senses takes money that doesn't belong to them!โ Ethan uttered as he leaned in, tapping the table with intention, his gaze firmly fixed on Collins.โWe are only just a

Melinda paused, her gaze still on Ryan as she tried to understand what he meant. โWhat do you mean by he is dangerous?โ She muttered, her tone careful.Ryan let out a dark laugh. โMelinda, you have no idea who you're dealing with and honestly I feel sorry for you.โ He said as he leaned back a bit, his voice heavy with scorn.โYour husband has been in prison for days and it is now you come to see him,โ he continued.โYouโre the one to talk! When I was in the hospital due to your constant humiliation, did you come to see me?โ Melinda fired back, her time sharp and unexpected.Ryan was taken aback, staring at her momentarily before smirking. โWowโฆ you're talking back at me now? He must be fucking you goodโฆ giving you the audacity to talk back at your husband.โ He spoke, his words soaked in sarcasm.Melinda readjusted herself, her grip on the phone tightening. โIโm not sleeping with my boss, Ryan.

Ryan quickly pulled away, his expression showing some sort of relief to escape her even though he was still consumed with desire. โHello? Yesโฆ. That's good to hearโ, he said stepping out of the bedroom, his backside swaying as he left. Melinda fell onto the bed, her body still deeply aroused but frustrated. As she watched him leave the room, an unsettling feeling wobbled in her mind. Something wasn't right. She remembered Ryan making similar late-night calls for weeks up until his arrest, and now again? Who was the one calling her husband at odd hours of the night? She pondered. Determined to find out who, she got out of bed, and headed for the room door. As she stepped out of the room, Ryan was already returning to the room. โOh, baby, y-you are back alreadyโ she stammered with a subtle chuckle. โYes,โ Ryan responded as he headed for his pajama pants on the bed. โWho was that?โ Melinda asked, her face twisted in curiosity. โIt was my colleague at the care center, he

โIโve waited all week to do this! Iโm a psycho right?! Iโll show you what a psycho looks like!โ He roared, his eyes blazing with fury that overwhelmed him. Leaning forward, he grabbed Melinda by the hand from the floor and gripped her neck. Melinda felt her life slipping away, her breath stuck in her throat as her hands scratched his, digging into his arms as she kicked and fought in an attempt to free herself, but he was too strong. โR-Ryanโฆ Y-youโre hurting meโฆ Please R-Ryanโ she pleaded as she struggled to mutter the words. His eyes burned with raw rage as he tightened his grip. Her lungs burned for oxygen, and gradually her vision became blurred as she fought to stay conscious. For a moment, the only sound in the room was her weak desperate gasps as her body drained of oxygen. Then just as he grabbed her, he let her go. She crashed to the floor, gasping for air, coughing desperately, her hands on her throat as she crawled away from him. Ryan towered over her fragile lit

โW-what?!

I love you Amelia!โ he exclaimed. โYou do?โฆโ Amelia whispered, her tone filled with a mixture of doubt and hope as her eyes widened. For a brief moment, the tension in the room seemed to ease. She stared deep into Ethanโs eyes as if searching for some sincerity in what he said.โY-yes I doโฆโ Ethan said, his voice shaky and firm at the same time. โJust don't move from here, let me deal with whoever is at the door.โ He quickly turned and walked towards the door.As he opened the door, just enough to glance through, there stood Jane, his assistant, holding onto a stack of files.โSir, here are the files you asked for,โ

Melinda gasped as Ethanโs intense eyes locked on her, the undeniable chemistry between them electric. Their lips met again, filled with longing and speed. Ethanโs hands explored her thighs, then moved to her back, unzipping her dress when suddenly, the door swung open.Lila stormed in, her voice sharp and demanding, โEthan, why aren't you picking up your calls?! The entire board members and shareholders are waiting for you in the conference hall.โHer gaze was all over the place, and then it landed on the two of them, her expression hardening as she saw them. โSo this is what you're doing? In the office, really Ethan?! And your investors are waiting for you downstairs!โEthan simply rolled his eyes, unbothered, while Melinda hopped down from the office desk, her cheeks burning with embarrassment. Lila gave Melinda a venomous stare, her words soaked in cruelty,โThis is the work you came here to do right? Being a whore!โโThatโs enough Lila,โ Ethan cut in immediately, his voice low and

โHi, Ryan,โ Melinda replied, her voice was flat and filled with scorn. She walked into the office, her eyes focused on the woman sitting at the office desk. โHello, please Iโm here to see Ryan. Can I borrow him for a minute?โโAnd you are?โ The woman asked as she raised her eyebrow, curiosity written all over her face. A brief silence filled the air and then Ryan and Melinda blurted out almost at the same time,โHe lives with me,โโSheโs my ex-wife,โThey both gave themselves a hard, cold stare before returning to the woman who was looking at them with so much confusion. Finally, the woman waved her hand dismissively, โWhateverโฆ Iโm done with him anyway.โWithout saying a word, Ryan and Melinda walked out of the office, the tension between them thick. They walked down the staircase in silence, only the soft thug of their footsteps making a sound.Melinda paused at the bottom of the staircase and looked at the chair in the waiting room, contemplating whether they sat there or not but

Silence fell on the room, dense and stifling. Deborah stared at the open space as her thoughts raced, and Ameliaโs gaze stayed fixed on her, waiting and trying to figure out what her mother would say.Deborahโs fingers unconsciously traced the shape of her jawline, her face hardening with uncertainty. โYou're right,โ she said calmly with conviction. โLet's just see how this goesโฆ. If Ethan keeps being a stubborn goat, we will have no choice. She needs to be taken out of the picture.โAmeliaโs lips widened with a sinister grin, her eyes sparkling with malice. โYes!โ she spat, her tone filled with spite. โI can't wait to take that bitch outโฆ permanently!โHer voice was cold, devoid of any regret. She gradually shifted her gaze to the mirror in front of her, her thoughts already scheming.

Ethan turned off the shower with a quick twist, water dripping down from his hair as he faced Amelia. โAmelia, what is it?โ he growled, his voice echoing off the bathroom tiles, low and controlled as he tried to suppress his rising anger.
