2025-03-04 07:00:53The next day, Ciel took the day off work to go through some documents in his private study.
He looked through the documents with his sharp eyes, feeling anger with every word he read. The truth he came to know from the documents was worse than he had initially imagined.The documents have been carefully gathered by Alex, his assistant. It contained everything about Roxanne's mother, Eleanor Renwick, who left her fortune to her two children, Roxanne and Finn.She had been thorough in her will. The wealth was meant to secure her children's future.But now, they may not be able to see a single dollar.Their father had stolen everything.He had lied to the court to forge documents, and channelled the money into secret accounts.Every single part of their inheritance had been taken away, and diverted to support Reina.Ciel felt bad as he thought of everything. Roxanne had grown up thinking she was unwanted and powerless.<

At the office, Ciel's mind raced as he thought of many things. He had been thinking of Derek Renwick.The man who had taken everything from his wife, Roxanne. He confiscated her mother's fortune, which was meant to secure Roxanne's future, and that of her brother.And now, Derek had been living in wealth, from the proceeds of the inheritance meant for Roxanne, and her brother.Compared to his family, the inheritance isn't much. That's why they wanted to marry into his family initially, but it's still Roxanne's to begin with. She should not have been stripped off of it.He felt anger towards Derek.A soft knock made him conscious of his environment again.“Come in,” he answered.His ever dependable assistant, Alex, walked in with another folder in his hands. He put it on the desk in the office.“Our investigation is complete, sir,” the assistant said.“It is a lot worse than we thought.”

At the Renwick corporation headquarters, there were reporters, shareholders, and some high profile guests.There had been some rumours making rounds lately, about some secret investigations, financial troubles, and failing projects. Everyone wanted clarification, and tonight, Derek was going to make a public appearance to clear the air.When it was time, he stood tall behind a podium. He was dressed in a very nice and well tailored suit, bringing out his sharp features. He started talking after he adjusted the microphone with a calm expression.“I understand there have been some concerns regarding my company's stability,” he said with a smooth voice. “Let me make one thing clear, Renwick corporation is stronger than it has ever been. The recent setbacks are nothing but temporary blocks. We are rising.”The crowd didn't appear totally convinced but they still nodded in approval.“And to those spreading rumors and lies,

One morning at Sebastien's mansion, Roxanne was sitting on one of the leather chairs, sipping her coffee as she thought about Ciel. For the past few days, she could sense some change in his behaviors.The man who always teases her, seemed to have grown distant right before her eyes.He told her he would not let them harm her again but it was looking like it was more than that.“What is bothering you, Ciel?” She finally asked him, trying to stop the silence between them.He was sitting across from her with a tense face. He did not answer immediately she spoke to him. Instead, he focused on the documents in his hand, going through them with a slow and deliberate move.He finally placed the documents on the desk and looked at her.With a low voice, he said. “There is something about your family that I found out about. Especially your mother.”Her heart pounded in her chest. Sitting upright, she asked. “What is tha

Derek's expression darkened and he said. “You are confused, Roxanne. These accusations…”“I am not confused. I have the proof.” Roxanne interrupted. “Every document and every forged signature, I have it. You stole my inheritance and used it to fund your business. And all the whole, you didn't even care about my brother and I.”The crowd were beginning to murmur loudly now. Some of them looked shocked.Some reporters at the entrance were taking down kites, and their camera flashed all over.Derek was not smiling, but he tried to keep a smooth voice. “You have always had a wild imagination. Your new husband is probably feeding you with lies.”“There are not lies, and you know it.” Roxanne said as she moved closer to him. “You let Reina live like a queen while your own daughter suffered. Finn needed medical care but you never bothered about him.”Guilt flashed through Derek's eyes at the mention of Finn.“You

There was no turning back now on the fight between Roxanne and her father.Few days after the confrontation at the ball, the city was buzzing with the rumors about the Renwick family's secrets.It spread quickly, hastened by the nature of the gossip. A stolen inheritance, the subsequent power struggle, and how Ciel Sebastien had supported his wife without hesitation.Derek was losing face. He was no longer the untouchable patriarch. Ciel was making sure of that.In his sleek office uptown, Ciel sat behind his big and expensive desk, reviewing the recent reports from his assistant, Alex.His sharp blue eyes perused the documents with a smile at the corner of his lips.Evidently, Derek is beginning to feel the pressure of his attacks.“The first part of the plan is done,” Alex said with a crisp and professional voice. “We have successfully blocked his supply chains in three important regions.

Outside the gleaming tower of Bellamy Couture, Roxanne's heart was beating in her chest as she she stood there.She could not imagine that this edifice had been her mother's, and it was now something she had to fight for.She had always thought her father owned it. And the fact that it was supposed to be hers made her shiver.She would not let anyone take what was rightfully hers again.She took a deep breath before walking in, holding her bag.At the reception, she met a young woman who barely recognized her presence.“Name?” She asked.“Roxanne Sebastien,” she replied firmly. Now that she is married to the family, she had decided to use the name. It carries weight and she would like to use it like a weapon.“One moment.” The receptionist said she as she paused mid type, her eyes widening a bit.In no time, Roxanne was directed to the top of floor, where the hiring team were seated, wai

Roxanne had been working her shoulders out since she resumed at the company.One day, it was late. Too late, and the usual bustling was now quiet. Only the streetlights felt like company as she walked along the side, clutching a folder of documents on her chest.She had been reviewing product proposals the whole day, trying to make sure everything was ahead. She was doing it so well, and gaining ground, too much for Derek's comfort.And she knew.She took a deep breath, then pulled out her phone, and sent her husband a quick message.Roxanne: I just left the office. I will be home soon.He replied almost immediately.Ciel: wait for the driver.Shaking her head, she smiled faintly.She did not want to rely on him for everything, and by the way, she could use a walk at the moment to clear her thoughts.Now she has to wait for the driver.However, she was not aware that someone

After the attack, Roxanne was back to her normal self and work mode again.

It's the day she will be resuming as a senior manager in the design department.An official announcement had been made earlier that morning in that regard.It was a significant win for her, as it's a step closer to reclaiming her mother's legacy, and this time, no one, not even Derek, not Reina, nor Evelyn, would stop her.She walked across the lobby, as her heels clicked with confidence.Heads turned as she walked, some whispered in admiration and others with jealousy.But she did not care.

Behind Ciel, Roxanne's heart was pounding so fast in her chest.She could not say if it was from when Ciel had confessed his love to her or a reaction to the sudden sound of rustling leaves in the distance.For a moment before the interruption, she was already set to give him an answer. She needed to admit to herself finally what she had understood and known for a while now.Which is the fact that she had also fallen for him completely.But before she could have done that, they heard the rustling sound and Ciel's protective nature had kicked in instinctively.He had shielded her from the possible danger with his body, and from whatever that may be hiding in the woods.“Stay behind me.” He said with a low and firm voice.She nodded, as her fingers gripped his sleeve subconsciously.She was not afraid of whatever that was in the forest, atleast.Her fear was the emotions within her heart, a truth of her life she needed to confront all this while.Some few seconds that appeared like minu

It had been warm, and intimate in a way she had not expected. The same feeling goes for Ciel.After the dinner, they had decided to walk around a bit with no particular reason or destination in mind.It was strange to her how everything had felt natural between them for a while now.He looked at her, his hands were inside the pockets of his trousers.He had stopped smirking.“You are quiet.”It was her turn to smirk.“You say that like it's something bad.”“No, no, it's not bad.” He said.“It is just unusual.

She looked at her mother as she smirked.She could not determine what was going through her mind.She had just told her she needed to be smarter about the way she approaches things, especially when it concerns Roxanne.And she realized she was right.At this point, the whole family is in a mess, all because everything they tried to do to make Roxanne feel like shit ended up elevating her, and they are put to shame.Her mother too was staring back at her with a smirk and for a moment, it felt like both of them were in a battle to know who stares harder.Finally, she said.“Before we proceed with whatever it is that we would do later on, I want you to know that I was deeply disappointed with what you did at the competition though.”She sighed.“The consequences of what you have done may take some time before it goes away.”Reina's heart raced with different emotions.She felt ashamed as she listened to Evelyn speak.The words got to her and it took great composure not to have cried at t

After Martha had left, she was left alone in the big mansion with her thoughts.Asides her domestic staff, she was the only one at home and due to that, there was lots of quiet.However, the heavy silence was pressing down on her like a big stone as she relaxed on the sofa in the living room.She grabbed the glass she was drinking from earlier and gulped down the wine inside it, as she replayed what Martha said about her daughter over and over again in her mind.The fact she came to her home to mock her about it made the whole thing stung.This would not have happened if Reina had not been irrational, and had just listened to her.She had told her not to do anything irrational, else she would not be there to help clean up her mess.But she had not listened.Even the mess she had gotten herself into was something even she, her mother, can not even help her from if she wanted to.Martha had had a smirk on that had been meant to subtly let her know how much of a failure she was as a moth

Evelyn Renwick, the wife of Derek Renwick sat in her living, sipping from a glass of wine. Her grand space had lovely lights all over, but the beauty of her surrounding could not help her sour mood.
