Devon sighed, and I could feel that he was relieved; so was I. If Grandpa Grey was aware of the whole matter, it might not be all that advantageous for me and might actually be disadvantageous, assuming they believed Devon over me. I would be in deep trouble more than I was in now if the Greys ever thought that I betrayed them.
They could deal with anybody in America, so what do I count for to them? Devon coughed dryly. "It isn't exactly like you think, Grandpa Grey. Perhaps you should ask your daughter-in-law," he said while gesturing at me. Everyone turned to face me, including Grandma Grey.
She had a vicious glare on her face, and it was as if she was saying, "See, I knew from the start that you are up to no good."
Anger started welling up inside me. I didn't do anything wrong, so why would she hate me that much, and what does Devon mean by passing the blame to me? I didn't do anything wr

KARENTwo days later, we drove to California to the Grey family house. "We are here now; you better behave yourself," he warned. I replied sarcastically, "I should be telling that to a certain someone. I am even surprised he didn't bring a certain mistress with him." He frowned, his face dark. "What nonsense are you talking? Just behave yourself; you don't want to rile the old man up," he warned. We alighted from the car, walking hand in hand to the Grey family mansion. It was a very large building and was so magnificent. I was admiring the scenery when all of a sudden, my face blanked. I saw an unpleasant figure in the distance. He was wearing a black suit and spotted a smile on his face. His smile looked lewd and sinister to me. I glared at him with hate. I hated him deep to the bones and always wished that he would just topple down and

DEVONI was infuriated seeing how my grandfather was strongly supporting her and scolding me. I wished I could just expose her for who she is and let the whole family know what they did.Alas, I just can't. If Grandpa were to hear a thing of what she did, she would end up sooner than expected, which isn't according to my plan. She had to suffer more and would be crushed mentally until she feels she couldn't live anymore.Luckily, Grandma wasn't deceived and had seen her for who she is. The very proud Stacy seems to have taken a liking to her and had dragged her with him.A pot-bellied man with a bald head walked towards the main table."Mr. George, I didn't know you would come today," I said as I stood up to greet him. He had a very sly smile on his face, and one could tell that he was a very crafty businessman."Of course, I must come so I can wish a happy birthday to the Grey family head," he said as he brought out a well-

KARENI woke up in the morning feeling blissful. I opened my eyes and saw that I was lying on a man's chest. My heart sped up, and I rose in panic, only to see that it was Devon. Then, I calmed down.He was already awake and staring at me with his cold abyss eyes."You were so drunk yesterday that you didn't even know when you were taken to a room," he said."That's not true," I denied. "It was your sister who said I could sleep in this room yesterday, and you weren't here then."He kept silent and didn't say anything else. We just stared at each other. The scene was slowly turning romantic. After some minutes, he said coldly, "Aren't you going to freshen up and stop gazing?" The almost romantic scene was destroyed just like that.I dragged myself off the bed and headed to the washroom. I brushed my teeth and washed my face. Since I didn't have a change of clothes, I decided to go outside the room to see if I could find Stac

KARENI arrived at the dining room after getting dressed. Stephan had left, leaving a long line of curses. I couldn't be bothered with the idiot and completely ignored him.Devon had already arrived with Grandma and Grandpa. They were sitting at the table while waiting. I greeted everybody politely before going over to sit beside Devon.Grandpa Grey smiled at me, while Grandma Grey pretended not to hear me. Soon, Stacy came in with a few other members I didn't recognize, and she sat beside me.Everyone started eating."Devon, when are you two going to get married?" Grandpa Grey said, breaking the silence. Devon paused and glanced at me. I shivered in fear and dropped my head low. The idea of marriage sounded both good and bad at the same time.Imagine how I was in hell already when we are still engaged. What will happen when we get married then?"Maybe soon," he replied casually, as if he was talking abo

DEVONThe next morning, I woke up early and tried to get up. I felt a heavy weight on my chest, and when I looked, I was greeted by the sight of the teary-faced Karen.She was sleeping, with tear stains all over her face. Her body was in a total mess, and the clothes she wore barely covered her private parts. I lied back to think. What really happened last night was really intense; I didn't even know what got over me.It was like it wasn't me, but a demon inside of me that seemed to have been awoken. I myself could be considered as a demon by many people, but I still felt that I crossed the line yesterday.Of course, I wasn't feeling guilty and only felt a little sorry for her.I slowly pulled myself away from her and got up. I decided not to stay in the room, as seeing me the moment she wakes up might get her agitated.I went to my other roo

DEVONFrank Street, New York. It was a less bustling street during the daytime than at night due to being a residential area. The driver pulled the car over; I alighted, carefully studying the desolated street before walking towards a coffee shop on the side.Two of my men followed closely. Inside the coffee shop, three men were in the corner: one was sitting, while the rest were all standing. The one sitting was a middle-aged man, about forty years old. He looked very handsome and was probably a woman killer during his younger days.He wore a peaceful expression on his face. The two men, one black and the other Chinese, were standing. The black guy was heavily built, while the Chinese guy was only average.The man looked up and smiled cheerfully when he saw me. He had a very amiable expression, which was actually a facade; in reality, he was a very scheming businessman and could go to lengths to achieve his

KARENI stood, staring at the wedding papers that I was holding. Yes, I had been married to Devon. He came back one day and asked that we should go get a marriage certificate. He didn't say anything about going to marry. Maybe he thinks it's nothing significant.That morning, he drove me to the court, and our marriage papers were prepared quickly, the whole process done so swiftly. It was nothing like the magnificent wedding that I used to dream of, yet I didn't dare complain, lest he became angry and punished me.Now, I officially belonged to Devon, and I didn't know if I should be happy or sad. 'Perhaps, it isn't a bad thing, and he might actually change with time,' I thought.It's already late at night, and all I want is to sleep. These days, I always felt that someone is following me, and it always gives me sleepless nights and caused lots of nightmares for me.Tonight, Devon wasn't staying in Devon's house because he had trave

DEVONI arrived at Miami by two o'clock in the afternoon; the city was very lively and bustling."Hey, call Mr. Wick now," I said to one of my men."Yes, boss." He went to the side to make a phone call, and after a few minutes, he returned. "Boss, he said we should wait for him at Dreams Hotel.""Is a hotel safe for such discussions?" I frowned, wondering what the man was thinking."He said that Dreams Hotel has private VIP dining rooms, and the doors are soundproof. There are also no cameras in the room, making it the most suitable place for such discussions," he replied."Hmm! Okay, then we'll wait for Kevin to bring the cars." I leaned back, took out a cigarette, and lit it before taking a puff. I relaxed, waiting for my men to bring me a car.I was sitting inside a high-end restaurant, lavishly decorated. People in Miami tend to be lavish. Miami is well known for its beaches, especially South Beach.

KAREN“Yeah, my mom told me that during her time, she craved chocolate so much that she ate so much chocolate. Really,” I said to Alice.“Really?” she asked. I nodded.“Well, I’m glad to hear he is good with you. I hope everything would be best for you,” Alice said with a smile.“Alice, thank you for always being there,” I thanked Alice.“Ma’am, your order,” when our order came, we started having our lunch together.After lunch, we went to Alice’s car.“I am dropping you home. Get rest, don’t worry for the salon. I would check again there in the evening,” Alice said, and she drove me home while she went to her salon.After walking into home, I went directly to the room. After taking a shower, I decided to take a nap.I lay on the bed. After some time, I drifted into deep sleep.

KARENRelief washed over me as Alice confirmed what we had thought. The lady who had complained about her facial treatment looked shocked.“I… I had no idea. I’m sorry for causing a scene earlier,” she said in a low tone.“It’s okay. We’re just glad that now you know about this, so you should not use this cream again,” I replied to her.“Now that everything’s fine, can we go back to the salon?” Alice asked from behind.“Yeah, let’s go,” I said to Alice with a smile.The lab technician handed us the test results, and we thanked him before leaving the lab. While Alice and I went in her car, the lady said she would go by cab and left from the lab.As we reached the salon, Linda and Diana were walking in, waiting for the results. Seeing Alice and me coming into the salon, they came towards us.“You’re back! What were th

KARENBut she wasn’t having it. “I don’t care about your investigations!” she said, her face filled with frustration. “If you don’t fix this right now, I’ll make sure everyone knows about the terrible service at this salon. I’ll leave the worst review of your salon!” she said angrily.“Ma’am, please have a seat. Please, calm yourself,” Diana said to her, trying to soothe her anger.However, she was too agitated to listen, her anger boiling over as she threatened to leave a bad review of the salon.Listening to her words, I felt anxiety. Negative reviews could be damaging to our reputation, and I knew I had to find a way to make things in our favor and also make her calm down.As I attempted to understand her complaint, the door swung open again.I looked at the direction of the door and saw Alice there.“Hello, everyone!&

KAREN“Devon, thank you for taking me out for ice cream,” I said, my voice filled with happiness.He glanced at me briefly, then nodded.“It doesn’t mean you can have ice cream instead of a meal every time,” he said in a rude voice.“Yeah, I know,” I replied.I was so into enjoying my ice cream that I didn’t even notice a bit of it had dripped onto the side of my mouth. When I looked at Devon, I could see he was smiling a bit.“There’s a little ice cream on your lip,” he said, pointing to his own mouth.I got confused and tried to wipe it off myself, but Devon shook his head, still smiling. “No, not there,” he said, leaning closer.Before I could say anything, Devon’s hand gently wiped the ice cream off the corner of my mouth. It felt nice when he did that, and I blushed a little, feeling shy.He sat on his

DEVON“That’s why she became unconscious?" I asked the doctor.“Yeah, she will be back to her senses after some minutes. Don’t worry,” the doctor reassured me before leaving the room.When I entered the room, I saw Karen was already awake. She looked at me, confused, and asked, “What am I doing home? I was at the salon. What happened?” She seemed disoriented and weak.“I brought you home. You fainted at the salon,” I explained gently, feeling bad for causing her trouble.“I’m sorry, Devon. I suddenly felt dizzy,” Karen said, embarrassed.As I looked at her feet, I noticed they were red and burned from the spilled coffee. I knew I had to do something. I sat up and went to the cupboard, taking the first aid kit. I sat beside her and took out the ointment from the box.“Let me apply some ointment on your feet,” I suggested g

KARENThe next day, I woke up when the sun’s rays hit my face, causing me to struggle in the pillows. I decided to wake up, and upon opening my eyes, I was greeted with the best view in front of me: my husband’s face.I gazed at him for a while, his words from the previous night still echoing in my mind. His apology had meant so much to me, bringing happiness to my heart.I got up from the bed and made my way to the bathroom. After taking a refreshing shower, I headed downstairs to make breakfast for us.As I descended the stairs, I noticed the maids already at work in the kitchen, preparing for the day ahead. Their presence reminded me of the privilege and comfort that surrounded us, and I couldn’t help but feel grateful for all that we had.I went to the kitchen.“Ma’am, do you need anything?” the maid asked.“Yes, please. Could you get me some fresh eggs from

DEVONAfter arriving at the office, I tried to focus on my work, but thoughts of Karen lingered in my mind, disturbing me. Her teary eyes kept haunting me, making me feel like I was in the wrong. I decided to investigate further and made a call.After a few rings, he picked up the call. “Yes, sir?” he replied from the other end.“I need CCTV footage of Karen’s salon and her street from today,” I said to the person on the phone.“Okay, sir. You will have it by evening,” he replied.After the call, I opened my laptop and started reading my emails. Once my work was done, I decided to visit Laura.I went to her home and knocked on the door. After a few seconds, she opened it.“Well, well, well, look who decided to show up,” Laura teased me, leaning against the doorframe.I chuckled, stepping inside. “Couldn’t stay away, could I?” I replied.

KARENHe looked at me, and I went to him and sat beside his chair.“Get him here,” the police commissioner said to the policeman who was standing beside him. He went inside and came back with a man, his face covered with a black mask.“Here he is,” the policeman said to Devon.“And here are your things,” the commissioner said to Devon, while placing my handbag and mobile phone on the table from his drawer.I looked at my things with shocked eyes.“This can’t be true,” I thought to myself.“Check if anything is missing,” the police commissioner said, while pointing at my things.I looked at Devon, seeing him already smirking at me.I took my purse from the table and started looking into it. There was everything inside my bag that the thief took tomorrow.“What should we do with him?” the commissioner asked Devon.&

I’m Karen,” I replied.“And what’s your name?” he asked, directing his attention to her.“Linda,” she replied with a smile.“So, Karen,” he began, turning to me, “when did you start this salon? I don’t remember seeing it here before.”“I started working here a few months ago,” I replied.He nodded and looked at Linda again; she was already looking at him.“So, Linda,” he began, “how long have you been working here?” he asked, directing his attention to her.Linda looked surprised by the sudden attention, but she smiled and answered his questions, starting a conversation with him. As they talked, I couldn’t shake the feeling that there
