More Fontana shares were sold to Veena and it made Ashley even more frustrated. There were grim looks on Cedric and Helen's faces as more shares landed on to Veena's hands.

"Oh honey, what should we do!?" Helen cried out to Cedric.

All of their hard work will fall down the drain if Veena gets the upper-hand in the company's shares.

Cedric's lips thinned as his eyes stared at the morning's newspaper. A huge headline was plastered all over it.

'A Fashion Queen's Comeback: Fontana in Trouble?'

Someone has been spreading around the news of those shares and it caused the Harrisons a huge turmoil. The board of directors were also pressuring them to do something to stop Veena's madness.

"There is only one person who can change Veena's mind," Cedric said. "Next week will be Grandmother Meredith's 70th birthday. We need to tell grandma about this and convince Veena to take back those shares."

"Great idea, dad! I'll send the invitations to her next week and to all of the highest Geneva

    The private plane they were in finally landed and Veena smiled widely at the beautiful scenery of the blue ocean and tan sands. "Welcome to Paradiso island." Lois said from behind."It's breathtaking! I do really need this vacation. Thank you." Veena kissed his cheek. "Let's go. I reserved seats in a restaurant. They have the best lobsters compared to the high-class restaurants." Lois held her hand as they carefully went down the plane. Their bags were already handled by Lois' men and were sent to the hotel they'll be staying in, but first food is priority."Good noon, Mr. Rossenov! We're glad that you're back it's been years!" A man in his 60s greeted them. "Mhm. I brought someone with me this time," Lois wrapped an arm around Veena's waist. "Dan, meet Veena, my wife." Veena was confused why he introduced her as his wife. They're supposed to be known as 'friends' or 'business partners' to the public. "A-A wife!? Wow...I did not expect you to be finally married!" Dan laughed. "M

    Veena sipped on the freshly brewed cup of coffee in her hands. Lois was still sprawled naked over the messy bed. Her eyes darkened as she relayed the events from last night. Their relationship is just a marriage of convenience, even she didn't and hesitated to think of it that way. His words yesterday left her mind in a spiral of confusion. 'Is that what you really think?' She clenched her fingers over the ceramic mug. 'What does he want me to think?' "What's on your mind?" A deep voice reverbrated from behind her. Her back stiffened and she blushed upon seeing him standing there, nude. "C-Can you wear something, please?" "Don't be shy. As if you haven't seen anything." Lois chuckled, he grabbed the bath robe and sits down at the vacant seat, opposite her. She scrunched her eyebrows as the image of Megan and Lois annoyed her. Don't be jealous...don't be- "Whatever happened with Megan, forget about it. She jumped herself on me and I was taken by surprise." She looked away, av

    "Grandma! You can't let her stay with us!" Ashley complained. "Oh shush! I am the head of this family and I have the final say of who stays or leaves in this family. Do you want to be the first one to leave, Ashley?" Meredith glared at her. "B-But..." "No buts! It is final. Veena will be staying with us back in Harrison residence. She is your sister and you must treat her well! I'll forgo the things you've done to Veena. If you'll try to do anything to her then you know what will happen." Meredith warned. "M-Mother...Veena is Fontana's competitor." Cedric said. "She is a shareholder of Fontana! There's nothing wrong with that!" Meredith rebuked Cedric's words. "Now, I think it is time for cake cutting!" The old woman walked away as if nothing happened. Ashley snorted and gave her sister a sharp look. "Even if you get to stay in the Harrison's home. You will never be welcomed there! I'll make sure you will never live peacefully!" "That's enough, Ashley. Remember what Grandma war

    Spencer watched his friend consume the amber liquid. Lois already drank three glasses of scotch and surprisingly he wasn't drunk yet."Slow down, my friend. You left the party so early that you somehow forgotten to greet me." Spencer complained."Shut up."Spencer raised an eyebrow and smirked. "I know what's bothering you. Your little wife left, didn't she?""I don't appreciate you meddling into my affairs, Spencer."The man raised his hands feigning innocence. "Chill. As the man with years of experiences with women. I'll give you an advice,"Spencer grabbed the glass away from Lois' hands ."What are your feelings for her, Mr. Rossenov? Do you love her?""Love?" Lois scoffed. "That's bullsh*t. The last time I've seen love was when my mother had to protect me from my father's mistresses. Love was what killed her.""And love is also what fixes us. Your mother wants you to be happy. She wouldn't be if you'll continue mourning for her death and have grudges over your family. This is your

    The other directors were anxious and did not look into Veena's eyes, while those who believed in her weren't afraid to talk to her. She knew they were guilty of taking her wretched family's side and disposed her immediately in the past as Fontana's CEO. "I know some of you despise me and have done things in the past. You sure are lucky because I'll let you pass for now. If you'll attempt to do something against me. I won't hesitate to take action right away." Veena said. Hopefully, her words will keep the enemies at bay. Make them hesitate in making a move while she slowly destroys Fontana's internal operations. After ruining it, she'll sell off the company to Lois. Then their deal will be done. "Just because you are temporarily taking over Ashley's position. It doesn't mean everyone will follow you. Remember we are all in her side." Mr. Ansel commented.

    Veena stared at him incredulously. Is he being serious? Was she hearing things right?"Lois...I-I can't. Everything is finally in my hands and I can't stop or turn back now." Lois' eyes turned cold. His whole aura was unapproachable and reserved. "I see." he stood up and walked out of her office. What happens to both of them now? Veena was in a dilemma. Lois was acting strange. He knows what is her agenda in this marriage, but he was silently throwing tantrums, the silent rage ebbing within his body. She shook her head and grabbed a piece of paper on the desk. One of the shareholders was willing to sell off his shares to her. Only a few more and everything will finally come to an end. She exhaled, feeling more tired than usual. She's been having less appetite than usual and becoming picky about food. She must be sick, but she was trying to convince herself that nothing was wrong with her. This illness will just pass by. Someone entered the room without permission and she glared

    The club blasted with loud music and there were women surrounding Spencer. The man was laughing with the ladies as they poured him another shot of expensive scotch. Sitting across him was Lois Rossenov. His mind was elsewhere, glaring mindlessly at the table while drinking his own scotch. The women wanted to get his attention but the man ignore them. "Honey, let me fill up your glass." One of the girls offered. She sensually moved closer to him, hoping to get closer to this dangerously gorgeous man. Lois frowned and slapped the woman's hand away. He came here to drink not to hangout with women. Spencer was very demanding and wanted girls around his arms. He ignored his friend wanting to drink alone. Spencer noticed his friend's annoyance and ushered the girls out of the VIP room. Their area was situated in the second floor with an open balcony. Below them were people dancing and drinking endlessly. "Hey...what's going on with you? Don't tell me someone got a taste of your wrath.

    Veena inspected the jewelries Carson had in his hands. Her fingers touched the tiny gemstones on the bracelet and sighed heavily. She remembered this bracelet. Mom would always wear this whenever it was her birthday. This was mom's favorite jewelry. She hugged it to her chest and teared up. "Miss Veena, we have finished interrogating him." Abby announced. Veena's sorrowful look changed into a cold expression. "Did he say anything else?" "No, he was stubborn and wouldn't speak up." Veena nodded and followed Abby to the basement where Carson was tied up. He was sweating and heaving heavily because of the injuries he suffered under the Rossenov torture guards. Her eyes squinted and assessed him intently. She chuckled and gripped Carson's hair. "Now I know where I've last seen you. You were out in a date with Ashley that time, weren't you?" she asked."Y-You're delusional! I did not go to that restaurant!" Carson rejected.She grinned even further. "That restaurant?
