"Mandy is pregnant for Dwight. I knew she was cheating on me all the while, Bella. She's a Sneaky snake." Ramsey snapped. Bella furrowed her eyebrows, stunned at Ramsey’s reply. The whole time, she thought Ramsey knew about the baby and still denied it, but reverse is the case. Ramsey doesn't know he is the father of Mandy's child. But anyways! Bella wasn't interested in revealing that to Ramsey. So instead, she shifted the conversation in the direction that mattered most to them both. “Forget the baby, then. We need to break her down. Mandy’s getting too bold, and if we let her continue, she’ll destroy everything. We have to attack the source of her power.” Ramsey nodded slowly, catching on to Bella’s line of thinking. “You mean Dwight?” “Yes, Dwight,” Bella confirmed, a wicked smile curling on her lips. “He’s her rock. If we break him, Mandy falls apart. We attack the source.”"So we turn him against her yeah? No mar! I'm good at that." Ramsey said a glow on his face. "Mandy! M
Dwight paced his luxurious room, his fingers drumming on the armrest of the couch as he glanced at his phone. It rang sharply, breaking the tense silence, and Dwight hurried to answer. Bella’s name flashed on the screen, and he quickly swiped to pick up. "Hey, Bella," Dwight said, trying to keep his voice calm. "What happened? You didn’t show up at the casino. I thought we had a meeting scheduled." Bella’s faked her voice to be soft but strained, as if she had been crying. “I’m sorry, Dwight. I had to leave for something urgent. I couldn’t stay.” Dwight frowned, already losing patience. “So, what’s going on? Just say whatever plan you have over the phone. It’s convenient too.” Bella hesitated for a moment, then sighed heavily. “The only way we can tame Mandy is for you to break up with her for a while.” Dwight’s was thrown off guard by her suggestion. “What? Bella, I can’t divorce Mandy. That’s going too far, I still love her irrespective of her insanity. Isn't there another
Mandy looked away from Bella, her face tight with concern. She glanced at the phone screen, but the words on the other end were still blur, replaced by a sinking feeling in her stomach. She tried to shake it off, forcing a smile when she noticed Bella was still watching her, curiosity burning in her eyes. “What’s going on, Mandy? Who was on the phone? Who is Davis?” Bella asked at once, her tone laced with genuine worry. Mandy plastered on a fake smile, waving her hand dismissively. “Oh, nothing. Just some business partner, talking about business stuff. You know how it is.” Bella eyed her skeptically but decided not to press further. She knew her sister too well; if Mandy didn’t want to share, no amount of prying would get her to open up. Instead, Bella let it go, hoping that a little time together might lift Mandy’s spirits. “How about we take a break? Just the two of us—sisters’ day out,” Mandy suggested suddenly, her eyes lighting up with a flicker of excitement. Bella’s face
As Mandy stormed away from the Nortons’ mansion, her heart was deliberating, not with regret, but with a fierce, burning determination. She was done playing by Dwight's rules, done being the pawn in his game. As she marched down the driveway, her mind was already spinning with new plans. She was more resolved than ever to get back at Ramsey and anyone else who had tried to break her. This wasn’t the end; it was just the beginning of a new chapter in her revenge. As she reached her car park, she spotted Rachel leaning against her car, arms crossed, wearing a smug grin. The cocky girl had an uncanny way of showing up at the worst moments, and today was no different. “Wow, didn’t expect to see you out here,” Rachel called out, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Looks like somebody got the boot. What happened? Trouble in paradise?” Mandy shot Rachel a steely look, refusing to let her taunts get under her skin. “I’m doing just fine, animal,” she replied coldly. “Some people just can’t
Mandy sat in Davis living room, her thoughts tangled and restless. The day had been long, and the whole event flashing through her memory. She glanced at Davis, who was busy typing away on his laptop. The silence between them was comfortable yet charged, filled with unspoken questions and lingering emotions. Mandy immediately remember the conversation Davis had mentioned over the phone with a serious tone, back at Bella's house. It was a good time to ask. “So, Davis,” Mandy began, breaking the silence. "you were trying to say something over the phone the other time—about Bella and Dwight?" "Bella and Dwight? oh No!" Davis denied smoothly. "I wanted to keep you updated about the Wendel's, Ramsey's mum." Mandy expression changed.“Yeah! About that investigation you mentioned… Ramsey’s mother—what did you find out?” Davis paused, looking up from his screen. He hesitated for a moment, as if debating whether to tell her everything. “Ramsey’s mother is dead, Mandy,” he said quietly.
Mandy paced the living room, nerves on edge as she rehearsed her words. The morning sun filtered through the blinds, casting streaks of light that did little to brighten her mood. She had stayed up all night, wrestling with thoughts of Davis, his intense brown eyes, and the way his presence made her heart race and her thoughts scatter. She couldn’t hold it in any longer; she needed to know where she stood with him. When Davis finally emerged from his room, looking slightly disheveled but no less handsome, Mandy wasted no time. “Davis, can we talk?” He nodded, sensing the urgency in her voice, and they sat down on the couch. The air between them felt heavy, as if the words Mandy was about to say would tip their delicate balance. Mandy’s voice quivered as she began, “I need to know, Davis... do you feel anything for me? I mean, really feel anything? Because I can’t keep pretending that this is nothing. I thought I could handle it, just being around you, but it’s driving me insane.
Davis eyes widened, and his breath caught in his throat. Ramsey Wendel stood in the shower, water cascading over his muscular frame. For a moment, Davis’s brain struggled to process what he was seeing. Was he more shocked by Ramsey’s presence, or was it the realization that Bella was once again betraying her sister? Or maybe, it was the undeniable fact that Ramsey, the man who had thrown Mandy out of his life, was now comfortably bathing in Bella’s apartment as if he owned it. Davis’s mind buzzed with questions. How long had this been going on? Was Bella really back with Ramsey, or was this just another one of their twisted games? His confusion gave way to anger; Mandy had trusted Bella, tried to protect her, and this was how she repaid her? He didn’t have long to ponder as the sound of approaching footsteps jolted him back to the moment. Bella’s soft humming grew louder, and Davis quickly ducked behind the half-open bathroom door, his heart hammering in his chest. He watched thro
Davis immediately sprinted down the hallway after weighing his options, his heart racing as Ramsey lunged after him, fueled by rage and determination. Despite Ramsey’s anger, his body betrayed him. Every move sent a sharp, familiar pain shooting through his bones—the lingering wounds from Mandy’s last attack had not fully healed. He was fast, but not fast enough. Davis slipped past Ramsey’s grasp, narrowly avoiding his outstretched arm. They tumbled into a messy struggle, grappling fiercely as Ramsey tried to pin Davis down. For a moment, it seemed like Ramsey would gain the upper hand, but Davis twisted his body just right, using his agility to break free. In the chaos, his expensive wristwatch snagged on Ramsey’s hand and fell to the floor with a metallic clatter. Ramsey groaned, clutching his side, pain flaring from his bruised ribs. Bella rushed over to him, her face twisted in panic, but by the time she reached Ramsey’s side, Davis had already vanished, disappearing into the
