I paced back and forth in the room, my legs shaking with anticipation. I wasn't exactly the poster boy for punctuality, but I was definitely never late, and if I was, it was only a couple of minutes. The waiting was killing me, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of restlessness.

But I knew I had nothing to worry about. The DNA results would be here any minute, and I was confident that they would prove Helena's claims to be false. I would finally be able to kick her out of my life and focus on nurturing my relationship with Electra.

The thought of being free from Helena's drama and manipulation was exhilarating. I could already imagine the sense of relief and peace that would wash over me once she was gone. And I knew that Electra would be relieved too - she had been a rock for me throughout this whole ordeal, and I was grateful for her unwavering support.

Just as I was starting to think that the wait was going to kill me, I heard a knock at the door. My heart skipped a beat as I rea

    Helena POV "So, who's the father then?" Maxwell asked, his hands folded around his chest, his eyes filled with curiosity. I was pretty sure if he found out the truth, he wouldn't be as curious as he looked now.I couldn't resist taking a jab at him, just for the sake of seeing his reaction. "Well, if you must know Maxwell, the child is yours," I said with a smirk, trying to keep a straight face.The look on Maxwell's face was pure gold. His eyes widened in shock, and his mouth dropped open. He looked like he had been punched in the gut. For a moment, he just stared at me, his face frozen in a mixture of shock and horror.

    Knoxville I took a gulp of my white wine, the crisp liquid passing down my throat as I frowned, my mind reeling with the day's revelations. What had started off as a hopeful day had quickly turned to ash, leaving me feeling dazed and disoriented. I still couldn't believe that Gideon was my son. The words echoed in my mind, but they just couldn't register, no matter how many times I read the DNA results. Over and over and over again, the words danced on the page, taunting me with their truth.I set the wine glass down, my eyes drifting out the window as I struggled to process this new reality. I had every intention of protecting and being there for Gideon now that I knew he was my son, but I couldn't help but wonder... why now? Why had fate chosen to reveal this truth to me at this moment, after all these years? The question swirled in my mind, leaving me feeling lost and uncertain about what the future held.I clenched my fists, feeling a wave of anger wash over me. Why did Helena wa

  • Entangled with my Ex-husband and His Stepbrother    Is that so?

    Knoxville I gazed out the window, my mind consumed by the looming threat of Maxwell's power play. "My best guess is because he can," I muttered, my voice laced with frustration. "He knows he has a lot of people that would support him in an instant. They all think he is some kind of saint." Henry's expression was somber, and I knew he shared my concern.Henry nodded in agreement. "Maxwell does have a lot of supporters, sir. And when it comes down to it, he'll probably get the unanimous vote." His words hung in the air like a challenge, and I couldn't help but feel a surge of determination. Maxwell might have the upper hand for now, but I was far from defeated.I turned to face Henry, my eyes narrowing as I considered our next move. "He's that great a pretender," I said, my voice dripping with disdain. Maxwell's ability to manipulate others was impressive, but I knew his facade wouldn't last forever.Just then, Henry's voice broke into my thoughts. "You look worried, sir." I felt a fli

    Knoxville POV I stood tall, my eyes scanning the room with a piercing gaze, my voice low and even. "Is anyone going to speak?" I asked again, my tone dripping with a hint of annoyance, though my face remained impassive. I was already aware of the dynamics at play, but I pretended otherwise, savoring the discomfort that radiated from the others like a palpable force.The air was thick with tension as I paused, letting the silence hang heavy over the group. I knew they hadn't been expecting me to show up, and that was precisely why I had chosen to make an entrance. The element of surprise was a powerful tool, and I wielded it with precision.As I swept my gaze around the room, my eyes lingered on each face, searching for any sign of weakness or guilt. The others shifted uncomfortably under my scrutiny, their eyes darting towards each other before quickly looking away."Nobody?" I repeated, my voice a little louder, a little sharper.

    Knoxville POV I turned to face Maxwell, my eyes locked on his, as I delivered the scathing rebuke. "Your hands are dirty, Maxwell," I said, my voice firm and resolute. "That's the only reason you have the people's vote, not because you're competent to be the chairman." I paused, my gaze piercing through his facade. "They know you're an easy target, a puppet they can manipulate to do their bidding. That's all you really are to them, and that's why they'll support your attempt at a coup."Maxwell's face twisted in rage, his eyes bulging with indignation. But I wasn't finished yet. "You're right, I don't have the authority to return their shares," I continued, my voice unwavering. "But I've brought my father's PA, the acting CEO, to set the record straight." I turned to gesture to the acting CEO, who stood beside his lawyer, their faces stern and professional. "Let's hear from them, shall we?" I said, my eyes never leaving Maxwell's face, daring him to challenge me further.He cleared h

    Maxwell's eyes widened in outrage as he directed his question to his late father's PA, his voice trembling with indignation. "How can this be possible?" he demanded, his face reddening with anger.The PA, a man with a stern expression and a hint of a sympathetic gaze, looked at Maxwell and shrugged, as if he'd been waiting for the opportunity to speak. "Well," he began, his voice measured and calm, "when your father was alive, he was watching the both of you carefully, to see who was competent enough to carry his legacy."Maxwell's face fell, his eyes flashing with anger and hurt, as the PA continued. "And I'm not sure how to put this kindly, but you weren't the chosen one, unfortunately, Mr. Maxwell." The PA's words were like a slap in the face, and Maxwell's expression reflected the shock and pain he felt.The PA's expression turned somber, his voice taking on a serious tone. "According to your father, you proved to be easily bought and incompetent in many ways." The words hung in t

    Maxwell's face turned a deep shade of red as he spluttered in outrage, his eyes bulging with indignation. "What are you talking about?" he demanded, his voice rising to a near-shout. "My father would never say such things! This is all just a fabrication, a lie to keep me from my rightful place as chairman!"The PA and lawyer exchanged a sympathetic glance, their expressions softening as they gazed at Maxwell's distraught face. The PA spoke up, his voice gentle but firm. "Your father wishes for you to change your ways and become a better man, Maxwell. He wants you to learn from your mistakes and grow as a person. And if possible, he hopes you can learn to love and live in harmony with your brother."Maxwell's expression turned even more incredulous, his eyes wide with disdain. "Love and live in harmony with him?" he repeated, his voice dripping with scorn. "You expect me to just forgive and forget everything he's done to me?"The lawyer stepped forward, his eyes locked on Maxwell's fac
