“Noah, you promised to be available at my birthday party. Where you at?” Melissa complained on the phone to Noah. He promised to be with her on her birthday and now, the birthday party already started an hour ago but he was nowhere to be found. It was almost time to cut her birthday cake and she wanted them to cut it together. What was she going to tell her friends now that he wasn't showing up? She already made it known to them that Noah would be all over her especially because she looked so good. Come on, she has never felt this pretty in a long while. “Commence without me.”“The party already started an hour ago. Noahh.”“I'm busy right now Melissa. Can we talk later?”“Talk later? What are you even doing? This is my birthday.”“I'll be there before your party ends, okay?”“I dressed up this pretty for you. I'm too good-looking right now for you not to see me. Please come.”“I will. Now go back to the party and continue without me.”“Fine.”She ended the call and placed it on her
Gasps and murmurs followed at the sight of the next pictures and videos that were revealed. The smiling Melissa frowned, wondering what it was that made everyone start murmuring. Her eyes almost popped out of their socket when she turned and saw what was making everyone murmur.“Really? So she has been deceiving everyone?”“I can't believe this.”“This is evil. How dare her deceive us all these while.” Their murmurs increased with each passing second and immediately, she stood up and rushed to the projector. “Turn this off. Someone turn this off,” she yelled.”“Who did this? Didn't you hear what I said? Turn it off immediately.”Like a mad person, Melissa held the remote control of the projector and tried turning it off but it was to no avail as the videos kept playing. “What is that, Melissa? Are these true?” She felt Mrs. Hank’s questioning voice behind her and she turned slowly to shake her head. “Mother, these are fake. Someone faked these.”“They don't look fake to me. Tell m
Hearing that coming from Noah himself, Melissa felt like fainting. She felt blood drain from her at the look on his face. He looked like he was planning on killing her if she didn’t start speaking now. “No…Noah.”“I said Explain.”She flinched at his tone.“Th…this is not true, I swear. It..it’s fake.”She couldn’t even look into his eyes as she lied. Her eyes were on everything except him and good Lord, her hands were shaky and her feet wobbly as if she would fall any minutiae from then. “Is that so?”Melissa nodded. “Is that you on the video or not and don’t you dare lie to me this time. This is your last chance to tell the truth.”“It’s Genevieve. Bitch. She did this. We should throw her out before she causes more commotion. This is my birthday party. Security? Security?” She called and nodded as the security guards came running to them. “Take her away from my birthday party right now. Th…throw her outside and make sure she doesn’t come in again. Do it now.”The guards stopped
“Genevieve, Eve,” Noah called as he ran after her and held her arms before she could get into her car. “What do you want now, Noah?”“Wait. We have to talk.”“About what? You want to question why I did that inside and on her birthday too? Look, I have nothing to say. I have to leave.” “I'm not going to talk about that at all.”Eve rolled her eyes. If he was here to doubt her or say something offensive this time, then she isn't going to take that from him at all. “Fine then. Say what you want. I only have five minutes to spare. I have somewhere to be at.”Noah dipped his hands into his pocket. How was he going to say this? “I'm sorry, Genevieve.” Her eyes widened at this. What? He was apologizing. “What?”“I said I'm sorry.”Noah looked away in embarrassment. It wasn't his thing to apologize at all. Apologizing for something was never in his dictionary and it doesn't matter to him if he was right or wrong. Either way, he never apologized. “I'm sorry for what happened a year ago.
“I'm sure this is all Noah’s doings. Only he can get on my nerves like this. He knows exactly what he’s doing,” Genevieve said to herself as she paced around her room. She was in her blue night dress and was pacing around her room with her fingers on her mouth. She was trying to think of a proper solution to the problem at hand. All through the night, she has been unable to sleep and tossed around till daylight. How could she sleep when her company was in danger? There was no way that she was going to sleep while having trouble in her heart. The previous day’s outing with Ella was of great help to her. The karaoke, the rage room, and everything they did helped her get her mind off things and be happy. But that was just for a while because the moment she got out of there to her house, all her problems came rushing to her and she was unable to stop herself from thinking and worrying about it all through the night. It was way above her. “Gosh. Why is my life from one problem to anothe
“Hey, I saw the news. How did it happen?” “It's my fault, Liam. My Dad was disappointed.”“Sit down, let's talk about it.” Genevieve sat down in the chair astride him in the small Cafe a few blocks away from the hospital. “I need your help, Liam. The Gray Corporation is suddenly in danger. They keep creating bad news about us. I don't know what to do right now and father, he got into this because of the news.”“We'll find a solution. But who would have done this?”“Noah Hank. I'm one hundred percent sure that he did this. Only he is obsessed with bringing me down right now.”Liam frowned. “Noah Hank?”If truly it was Noah Hank who caused this as she just said, Liam wasn't sure that doing anything would be futile at this stage. From what he knows about Noah Hank. He doesn't back down and he has eyes everywhere in the country knowing everything that is going on. Noah Hank was one beast in business and knew it like the back of his palms. Bringing him down might be almost impossible.
“What’s going on? What did the doctor say about Mr Gray,” Ella asked on their way back to the Gray mansion. “This is really unbelievable, Ella. I can’t believe this.”“I’m so curious.”“Do you know that someone has been switching father’s drug for the past months now? The doctor informed me that they couldn’t find a trace of the drug they gave in my father's body. They found something else which means someone at home has been testing my patience. We have to go home right now and look for that person.”“What? Really?”“I was shocked too when I heard it from the doctor.”“What are we going to do now? How are we going to find out who it was that was exchanging the drug?”“Don’t worry, I have a plan and I swear when I find that person, he or she is going to experience living hell with me and I’m not even joking.”Finally getting to the Gray mansion, Eve stopped the car right in front of the main mansion not bothering to part rightly before cling out of the car followed by Ella. “Welcome
Hearing her yell at her to stand up, Crula immediately stood up. “Madam, you have to believe me. I know nothing about that.”“You’re still going to lie, right? I see that you would love to be one of the Gray family’s enemies.”Crula’s eyes widened. The Grays ememy? That was something no one would love to be. Being one of their enemies is like a death sentence that she would never want. She watched as her boss’s daughter walked to the chair where she once sat and took her laptop before walking back to her. “I got evidence, Crula. This.”She played the video for Crula and the rest of the servants to see and their eyes widened when they saw Crula in the footage switching the medicines while everyone was asleep. The other servants were so surprised to see the footage. They were surprised that it was Madam Crula of all people who tried to harm their boss. She was known as the best servant and loyal to the boss since she had been working there for a long while now but this they just saw
