Laura "What? What are you talking about? Did Jason find out about my daughter?" I was practically screaming in amazement when, on a group call with Ava and Terence, they told me about Jason's finding out. "If it's anything to go by, Jason thinks your daughter is a boy and not a girl," said Ava, t
"That Richard is a damn player," Terence commented recently. "Don't talk like that, Richard is a good guy," I said, defending Richard. "Look, we're going to take you off the call. You are drooling Jason egg," Ava said to Terence, then removed him from the call. She and I burst out laughing. Poor
Laura Strangely enough, Jason hadn't shown up again for a whole week, so I thought he had given up on me because I told him I was dating Richard. Maybe he decided to take some time to think about what he was doing. I was hoping he would stop bothering me and let me work in peace, but I got the answ
Laura I had practically run off the terrace after Jason's speeches. I knew that Jason wasn't going to give up on me, so I had to take some action. "Hi, kitten. How are you?" I heard Richard's voice on the other end of the line as soon as he answered. "Hi, Rick. It's so good to hear your voice,"
JasonSeeing Laura kiss another man was so painful for me that I couldn't even explain it, it hurt as much as if I had been hit by a train. They were there right in front of me, kissing and destroying me. I felt so much hatred that I didn't think twice and went after that idiot, really wanting to ki
LauraFrom what happened in the following days, I could see that Jason was trying to stay away from me, he stopped showing up at Nemesis and stopped trying to invest in me like he did before. I was told that he had returned to his main company, which was good news for me as I could now work without
I could hear the board laughing softly, finding my presentation amusing. I smiled at them and played the first video. Where beautiful models paraded the Nemesis brand's new winter collection attractively and charmingly, there was something in the light, the setting, the editing, and the angle at whi
Laura "God in heaven, how arrogant that man is! A complete son of a bitch! How did you manage to stay married to him for so long?" Said Mia, who was one of the designers responsible for the project. A few minutes ago Jason had left the meeting room after turning down our arduous project in such a
Max POV “You want me to talk to my husband to help Gideon; is that what I heard?” Laura was asking me that with a look of shock on her face. “That's right, you heard very well,” I replied. “I want you to talk to your husband to help my brother.” Laura Williams Davies wanted to roll her eyes rig
Max POV“Could you give me a minute, please?” I asked as I approached Albert Williams. He was talking to Mel, his wife, and now that I had approached them, they had both turned to look at me.“Is it urgent?” Mel asked me, but it wasn't like I addressed her.“It has its urgency, I admit,” I replied h
Max I had left Lindsay alone with her new boyfriend in order to give them both privacy, especially because Matt Weiss might feel a little intimidated if I was around since he knew I was Lindsay's ex-husband's brother. I was going to find some fun at that party when I felt my shoulders being grabbed
Laura “I can really see your own secretary hitting on your husband and you can’t? Good God, you never change, don’t you, Laura?” Ava was rolling her eyes as she said that to me. I was really in shock as I saw that scene unfolding in front of me and at that moment I couldn't hold back, I immediate
Lindsay “Oh my Goodness, your brother doesn't stop staring at me like that. Is it because of my dress?” I asked, running my hand over my short, skin-tight dress that I had dared to wear for today. Why not, right? Max Bathory chuckled mischievously. “Maybe Gid is missing your feminine attributes, i
Laura I was in a corner of Albert's party with a glass of sparkling wine in my hand, sitting on one of the corners sofas in the company of Ava while she was telling me some gossip, and I was wandering around a little distracted, my gaze in the direction of Jason, who was chatting with some of his f
Zoey The party was in full swing. I didn't know what impressed me more: the undeniable luxury of the decoration or the people walking around, all of them looking like they came out of a movie. The atmosphere was vibrant, but in an elegant way—a play of soft lights and restrained laughter. The dres
Lindsay Melanie sent me the invitation, but I was so hesitant to confirm my presence at that party because, of course, it was her husband's party, who was Max's best friend, my ex-husband's brother, so I knew Gideon would be there. Zoey didn't need convincing; as soon as she received the invitatio
Zoey It was a cold night, but somehow, the anticipation I felt made the environment feel welcoming. Laura, always so generous and friendly, invited me to her brother Albert's birthday party. He was in his 30s, and from what I knew, he was always surrounded by a class of people I only saw in movies
