last update Last Updated: 2023-05-13 12:55:19

Wesley, sitting comfortably in his office, his eyes fixed on his phone screen, read through the news articles and the hate-filled comments that accompanied them. Unknown to him, his expression shifted from time to time, reflecting the range of emotions he was feeling at that moment.

At first, he seemed calm and collected, his eyes scanning through the words on the screen with ease. But as he read deeper into the comments section, a slight look of frustration and anger crept onto his face. His brows furrowed, and his lips pressed tightly together as he read particularly venomous comments.

"Weren't these people her fans? Did they not used to be her fans?" he could not help but mutter as he asked no one in particular. Now that she made a mistake even though they're oblivious to the fact that she was set up, did it still have to get to this?

Suddenly realising something, his eyes narrowed with a mix of disbelief and disgust, and he shook his head in disapproval.

    Andrew chuckled and looked Edward straight in the eye. "I'm not here to judge you," he said quietly. "And I also don't mend in affairs of unfaithful people except if I've got to get something out of it.""You feel guilty or not, you and I know I can use this info to mess with you. And believe me when I said I've been recording right from the start."When Edward heard this, he shut his eyes in frustration, then reopening his bloodshot eyes, he looked straight at Andrew."What the fuck do you want?"Andrew simply chuckled."Why did you leave Daisy to suffer from all that criticism when you yourself have your own skeleton in your cupboard? Why are you making yourself seem so righteous when you're not?"Edward was baffled before asking with a surprised expression, his eyes widening in shock, "What are you to Daisy? She doesn't know about this right?""We don't know each other," Andrew answered straightforwardly and only then could Edward breathe out a relieved sigh."So here is what I wan

  • Friendly Enemies   Chapter 36: The rain

    It was evening already and gradually, the world would plunge into darkness.The secret underground basement was a labyrinth of narrow corridors and dimly lit rooms, a place where the air hung heavy with the stench of misery. The walls were lined with rusted chains and shackles, ominous reminders of the unspeakable horrors that had taken place within those walls. It is within these walls the Lady from the Coasters carries out her unsightly activities. The walls where the doors can't be opened unless she does. The place where the masks and the coasters originated.In the main room is a lady lying motionlessly on a flat iron table, her skin pallid and cold to the touch. The table is stained with dark, dried blood, and various instruments of torture and dismemberment are scattered haphazardly about the room.The table itself is a grotesque sight, its metallic surface warped and dented from years of use. It is clear that this is no ordinary table, but rather a crude device designed for one

    "It's been a really difficult time for me and Daisy. I'm writing this post very early in the morning because I just can't sleep. I need to tell everyone what's really been going on.A few days ago, on our anniversary night, something terrible happened. Daisy was set up. She was lured into a situation where she was made to look like she was cheating on me. It was all a setup, and it wasn't her fault at all.I feel so responsible for not being able to protect my woman from something so terrible. Daisy is the most amazing person I know, and to see her being dragged through the mud like this is just heartbreaking.I want to plead with all the netizens and everyone who has been criticizing her to please stop. Daisy is innocent. She did not cheat on me. She loves me, and I love her.Investigations are currently going on regarding the issue to fish out the bad people who set her up. We hope that justice will be served and that Daisy's name will be cleared.In the meantime, I just want to ask

  • Friendly Enemies   Chapter 38: A call from Wesley

    Outside the guest room, Wesley stared down at the white sheet of paper in his hand which had some of Daisy's details scribbled on it, her address especially.Since he already has her phone number, he took out his phone from his pants pocket and scrolled through his call log before dialling a number. Since yesterday, when he called her and her dad, had suddenly shouted that way before the call dropped, he had not stopped wondering and worrying about what could have happened.In fact, it had made him think late into the night till he fell asleep. He had kept on refraining from calling again since her dad had mentioned yesterday that she wasn't in the right state to talk to anybody. Even that alone is enough to make him know that Daisy is currently not doing fine.Truth is, Wesley is still yet to figure out that he is always getting too worried about her. He is aware of the fact that he's been worrying about her these days and he always justifies that with the fact that he is in one way

    Even still, Daisy could not help but still feel upset.Isn't she also a victim? But even still, everyone is criticising her for cheating on her boyfriend even on her anniversary night, without hearing her own side of the story."Why are you calling me?" Daisy was obviously not planning to cool down hence she asked with gritted teeth.Wesley did not know what to say.'Why was he calling her?'Yeah, he was calling her cause he wanted to know if she's fine and all. Or... no, he pretty much knows she's not fine which kind of got him worried.But, will he admit that? NoWill he tell her that? No!Daisy was now feeling extremely upset"Don't call me ever again?" She warned then without waiting to hear anymore thing from him, she hung up directly.Wesley was stunned. He honestly was not expecting that response or reaction from her.Like how is he in the wrong now? How is any of these his fault?The whole ordeal felt like a slap on his face."And who does she think she is?" He scoffed.Decidi

    The sudden ringing of her phone shot her back from her current state of shock. Looking down at her phone and seeing it was Edward calling her, she became extremely shocked again that her phone fell off her hands to the bed.With wide eyes, Daisy stared down at her phone and between her tears, a wide smile broke out on her face. Peeping at her sister's phone and seeing the caller, Violet could not help but smile too.She knew just how much Daisy loves Edward.Even though she felt upset deep down that it took Edward days to actually take action, she was still happy. Things are better now at least.She remembered how their dad, Mr Louis had actually got people to help check the restaurant they had used and the private lounges. Just anything to prove Daisy was innocent that night but they had got nothing."Come on. Pick up sister," Violet then urged Daisy who seemed to have forgotten herself in the wave of excitement.Coming back to her senses and realising what she was doing, she immedia

    The lady from the coasters was feeling extremely shocked.The news about Edward's post and the fact that someone was actively working against her and her cohort came as a real shock to her."Who the hell could that be?" She muttered, her devilish face twisting in anger."I have no idea," Richard answered. He too was confused."But it's not bad, " Richard added. "No one can discover you, remember? You're the Lady from the Coasters. It's just a matter of time before we discover this person and take him or her down."Richard's words did get to her head cause she felt her pride rising to its brink again."Right from time, I've set my mind to destroy Daisy and I will," she muttered haughtily and eerily while her eyes travelled through the evil-looking room.Finally, her eyes landed on the casket just at the end of the room covered with white clothing and a devilish smile formed on her lips."If she can't get ruined by the internet backlash, then this should do the work," she chuckled darkl

    As the afternoon sun cast its warm glow, Cindy finally arrived at the Louis residence in her SUV, feigning exhaustion. But when she met Edward who had been there since morning, she felt her heart burn with hatred and bitterness.Suppressing her true feelings and covering up with a genuinely happy and excited smile, she put on her usual deceptive act and rushed over to the living where there was Edward, Daisy, Mr Louis and Violet watching a television show.After announcing her arrival and cheerfully greeting everyone, she rushed over to Daisy and threw her arms around her with teary eyes."Oh my God, I'm so happy for you," she cried as she withdrew the hug and began checking Daisy all over.Daisy now looked far better than even the night before and that didn't escape Cindy's observant eyes and it made bitterness well up within her.'Ha! This can't be!'Then, she turned to Edward and started thanking him aggressively."Thank you so much, Edward, thank you! You're the best!"Even Daisy

    Edward went on pumping in and out of her mouth roughly deep-throating her, his hand gripping tightly unto her hair like he would pull out her hair from her scalp. But Cindy seemed to be enjoying sucking him more than the pain she was feeling in her scalp.What's more, Edward seemed to be driven by so much lust that it was beginning to mix with his anger and frustration.Edward suddenly stopped, then bending slightly, he pulled down her gown exposing her fair fine boobs in her sexy lingerie. He wasted no time in taking them off so he could finally stare at them.Her nipples were pink, hard and pointy causing Edward to groan. So, he lowered himself till he was kneeling in front of her too, and then he stared down at her boobs.His hands went up to her chest before he cupped them, grabbing them and using his thumb to trace her nipples."Your nipples get to me all the time. They're sexy and on point," Edward muttered huskily

    After giving out that order, Wesley sat relaxed in his seat while he scrolled through Cindy's profile on his phone. But he was soon bored out and even the look on his phone showed he wasn't interested in what he was checking at all.It definitely would have been a different case if it was Daisy's."She loves clubbing, night outs...," Wesley was reading but then he skimped through a few lines."When she was young, she went to..."Still, he scoffed irritably.'I'm not reading this.'All he wanted to know was if she ever had any interest in agricultural-related stuff.The Croxxed X member of earlier had said she doesn't, but he still needs to see if she had some tell signs of interest maybe when she was younger.'Do I have to check this myself?'Following that, Wesley looked up towards Andrew's direction."I'm forwarding a mail to you Andrew. You will help check out Cindy's p

    The office had soon become a chamber of stillness and for the time being, it seemed as if both Wesley and Andrew were lost in their thoughts.Yeah, that actually was it as the Croxxed X team who had come in to report had left. Now the weight of the new information they had just learned beared down.Wesley's hand reached for his phone on the table before him and his slender fingers wrapped around it to pick it up. He wanted to check and probably delve into the depths of the email the Croxxed X team had sent regarding Cindy Auston.Not like he is in any way interested in any aspect of her life, but he needs to learn a few things during this investigation in which his main aim aside from rescuing Sarah and dealing with the prime minister is helping out Daisy Louis; the woman who had unknowingly caught his attention and even he is still in denial of.After all, he isn't one to first be interested in a woman.Now Daisy is also part of why

    The three left the restaurant back to Finn's media since Daisy had to get her car from where she parked it.After bidding Cindy goodbye, Ellen drove Daisy out of the place and back to the hospital. Even on their way back, Daisy was beginning to feel moody.'Going back to that ward again just feels like something I don't want to ever do again in my life. Can't wait to be discharged,' she sighed.She will be discharged soon anyway.Back at Finn's Media, after greeting a few staff and co-actors, Cindy left the place to take a drive around town. She needed to think, and then clear her head.With her hands on her steering wheel, she articulately maneuvered her vehicle through the roads and streets."If I'm going to gain the favour of the Lady from the Coasters, then I'll have to stop being bitchy towards Ellen. Ellen seems to be of greater importance as it is right now," Cindy muttered, talking to herself

    "Is Ellen there with you?"Is Ellen there with you? Is Ellen there with you?'''Those words kept ringing repeatedly in her head as if her head had suddenly hit a nut.'Wait what?!''What Ellen?'"Ma'am? You said what?" Cindy was slightly in a daze."I asked if Ellen is there with, Daisy Louis' exclusive nurse," the woman's eerie voice stated through the phone. She even sounded a bit upset. Like, 'How am I using such a dumb person as this...?'Now, Cindy's eyes were wide open she almost forgot where she was, but in the meantime, she quickly walked over to the side of the restaurant."Ye... ye... yes... yes!" Cindy answered, visibly shocked to her bones."She's from me," the lady began and this time, Cindy's eyes were as wide as soccers."I wasn't going to tell you initially but you guys would have to work together, and I don't want you displaying your sick and foolish attitudes. So yes, Ellen is from me."Cindy huffed. She almost seemed disorientated.Now she had so many questions to a

    "What?" Cindy eyed her."Oh I said you do what I want," Ellen smiled.Cindy was at a loss for what to say. First, since she has not actually been at the hospital to visit Daisy, she does not know Ellen. However, along their way here, Daisy introduced Ellen to Cindy as her exclusive nurse and new friend."I'll do what you say?" Cindy scoffed. "Like you're what?""Like I'm someone who knows a little secret you definitely don't want Daisy to know about," Ellen replied feeling smug."First, tell me what evidence you have about the incident. A video?" Cindy scoffed irritably."Daisy and I have been best friends for more than three years now. And you think you can come from nowhere to spill a bunch of trash to her and she will just believe you?""Babe, you've got no evidence to back up your claim!" Cindy laughed while Ellen just stared on with a smirk."All I have to do is tell her you are lying. Babe, she would effortlessly believe you just want to ruin our friendship and relationship. Who

    Cindy was suddenly drenched in fear as she stood there her gaze fixated on Daisy, with Ellen standing beside herShockingly, Daisy only waved at her smilingly brightly, followed by Ellen."Whaaaatt?"Cindy felt her eyes widen. Director Carlson had got to her and he had a worried and concerned expression."What's going on Cindy? Are you okay?" He asked seeing the tense look and expression on her face.With a shiver, Cindy suddenly got back herself so she took back at director Carlson and forced out a smile."Ha yes. I'm so sorry. Let's get back to the shoot," she stated. And despite how she was trying to regain her composure, she still had a panicked expression.What's more, she kept on glancing in Daisy's direction from time to time.Noticing this, director Carlson followed her gaze and his eyes rested on the vehicle a distance away.He was especially

    Just outside of Finn's media where they usually shoot their commercial adverts was the commercial set bustling with a hive of activity. The place was filled with crew members diligently preparing for the shoot.Colorful props, chic furniture, and a beautifully arranged array of flowers created a captivating partway, and carefully placed decorations created an inviting and visually stunning backdrop.Soft lights illuminated the set. Then there was director Carlson huddling with the crew, going over last-minute details and ensuring that every aspect was perfect.Among the crew members and a part of Finn's media staff videographers and staff from Dior, a perfume brand in Australia.Cindy Auston would be shooting a perfume commercial for this brand.Cindy was standing tall and confident, coupled with the fact that she looked really beautiful and sexy, like a freshly scented flower.Even Dior's manager st

She asked."Getting close to finding us out. Finding who you really are," he replied."Turns out they are quite smart," he added.The Lady instead scoffed and shook her head."Let them come," she stated.
