Suddenly, Scarlett upgraded Jaxon from a long-time crush to the love of her life."Well, well, well," she sneered, her eyes flicking back and forth between the two of them. "Isn't this a cozy little arrangement?"Sienna arched an eyebrow, her icy gaze meeting Scarlett's challenge. "What's it to you? We're both consenting adults, and our living arrangements are none of your business."Eric's face twisted into a smug grin. "Oh, I'm sure the press will be interested to hear about this little development."Jaxon stepped forward, his voice laced with disdain. "You two really have nothing better to do than meddle in other people's lives, do you? Pathetic."Scarlett's face flushed red with anger, but she quickly regained her composure, her eyes narrowing. "You think you're so clever, don't you? Just wait until everyone finds out about this. You won't be so smug then."Sienna regarded her coolly, a hint of a smile playing on her lips. "You underestimate me. Go ahead and tell whoever you like.

David's heart clenched, and his mood turned even more sour. His voice was icy, the anger simmering just below the surface. "Why are you telling me this, Lyra? What do you hope to achieve?" She was taken aback by his cold tone. "I... I just thought you should know. It seemed important." He gritted his teeth, his anger boiling over. "You know what's important? The fact that I know you're behind Eric and Scarlett's bullying of Sienna. You think I don't know what you're up to? I'm not blind, Lyra." Her voice trembled, and she stuttered in her surprise. "I... I don't know what you're talking about, David." "Don't play dumb with me. You've gone too far this time," he snapped, his voice like ice. "I'm warning you. Stay away from Sienna and stop trying to manipulate the situation. We are here to work and your games are an embarrassment for Hendrix Technologies." With that, David hung up the phone, leaving Lyra in stunned silence. He took a deep breath, trying to regain his composure, an

Mark sauntered over to Sienna, a sly grin on his face. Unaware that she was David's ex-wife, he only saw her as the Hamilton billionaire heiress.Sienna recognized Mark instantly – he had treated her like trash when she was married to David, looking down on her because she was the adopted daughter of David's servants.'What is this insufferable being's plan? Let's find out!' she thought to herself.Despite her hatred for him, Sienna decided to play his game to see what he wanted."Good evening, my beautiful lady," Mark said smoothly as he approached her, his voice dripping with charm. "May I have the pleasure of this dance?"She looked at him, her eyes glinting with mischief. She glanced at Jaxon, assuring him that she'd be fine and tacitly warning him not to interfere.Then she put on an innocent act and replied, "Why, of course. I'd be delighted, Mr.…"“I apologize. I didn’t introduce myself. I’m Mark Thompson.”“Sienna Hamilton.”As they moved to the dance floor, Mark's arm snaked

'How can he be so shameless? Was he always like this? Was I blind all my life?'"I didn't mean it like that," he stammered, trying to make an excuse."Yes, I did move to Jaxon's suite. Why does it matter to you?" she snapped, her eyes locked on his. "My reasons are none of your business."David's heart sank, and a whirlwind of emotions consumed him – disappointment, jealousy, and a sense of loss. He couldn't quite comprehend what was happening, but he knew that he had overstepped his boundaries."Would it have been better for me to stay with you, an engaged man, rather than with a bachelor?" She challenged, her fury at his audacity reaching its peak.He did not dare to respond.“You can blame your fiancé for not having a reservation of my own.”As the song drew to a close, Sienna abruptly pulled her hand away, leaving David standing alone on the dance floor, his thoughts racing and his heart heavy.He watched as she walked away, the distance between them growing with each step she too

David wearily made his way out of the festivities room, feeling drained and emotionally exhausted from the evening's events.As he walked, a waiter approached him with a tray of wine glasses. David recognized his favorite vintage, a Château Lafite Rothschild, and eagerly accepted the glass.The rich, exquisite taste provided a small measure of comfort, and he downed the wine in one go.Heading straight to his room, David barely had the energy to kick off his shoes before he collapsed onto the bed, falling into a deep sleep almost immediately.The morning sun streaming through the curtains woke David with a start. Groaning, he looked at the clock; it was already 8 a.m.He had a splitting headache and was disoriented from the sudden awakening. To his surprise, he noticed that he was naked underneath the blanket.‘Damn, it’s already late!’Remembering that he and Sienna had another presentation for the summit at 10 a.m., he scrambled out of bed and prepared to take a shower.As he grabbe

Sienna's voice was ice-cold as she spoke. "I'll wait for you downstairs. I don't want to be in the same room with you right now."David's heart ached at her words, but he couldn't blame her for her anger. He watched as she left the room, the door closing behind her with a soft click.He was left alone with his thoughts and fears. He quickly dressed, his mind racing as he tried to figure out how to prove his innocence. He needed to inquire about the hotel security and whoever had access to his room in his absence.As he was about to leave the room, his phone rang. It was his assistant."Paul, what is it?" He asked, his voice tense and impatient."Uh, Mr. Hendrix, I... I have the results of the analysis you requested," Paul stuttered, clearly nervous about delivering the news."Well? What did you find?" David demanded, his patience wearing thin."Sir, I'm not sure how to say this, but... the photos are not fake. They haven't been altered in any way," Paul said hesitantly.David's heart

"Well, well, well, if it isn't the lovely Sienna Hamilton," Scarlett drawled, her eyes gleaming with mischief. Eric chimed in, "You know, we saw David looking quite upset earlier. I wonder what could have caused that." Sienna rolled her eyes, not in the mood for their childish games. "What do you two want? I have better things to do than to entertain your nonsense." Scarlett feigned innocence, placing a hand on her chest. "Oh, we just wanted to see how you were doing, considering the little scene on the dance floor last night." Sienna's jaw clenched, annoyed by their persistence. "My life is none of your business. Why don't you two find something better to do?" ‘Should I ask Shane to take care of these pests? Nah, they aren’t even worth the trouble!’ Eric raised an eyebrow, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Wow, you're really on edge today. Something must have happened." Just as Sienna was about to retort, Jaxon appeared beside her, placing a protective arm around her shoulders.

David's heart sank, and he struggled to maintain his composure. "What? That's not possible. I don't remember any of it."The timid security employee held his ground but appeared nervous under David's scrutiny. "I'm sorry, sir, but I'm certain it was you. I can't say what happened inside the room, but I saw you both enter."David felt his world crumbling around him. If the security employee was telling the truth, then it meant that he had been with that woman, even if he couldn't remember it.He couldn't fathom how it had happened, and the implications were devastating."Why didn't you report this sooner?" David demanded, his voice shaking.The security employee looked even more uncomfortable, visibly intimidated by David's imposing presence.“I’m sorry, sir, but you asked if someone entered the room in your absence. I never believed you didn't know who…” The employee didn’t continue, as his boss hissed at him for overstepping.David clenched his fists, his mind racing with unanswered

Their room was a symphony of shadows, illuminated only by the pale glow of the moon that peered in through their window.Grandma Kate had left, convinced that her bedtime story had sent Xander and Bella off to Dreamland. The door had hardly closed behind her when the two five-year-old cuties started whispering."Pretending to sleep always works," Bella said, her voice filled with mirth.

She'll hear us," the little boy cautioned, although a broad grin was plastered across his face."Let's see where Mommy and Daddy are now," Bella suggested, her curiosity piqued.She reached under her pillow and pulled out their secret weapon - a tablet.

As they made their way to the stage, the room fell into stunned silence."Lyra Whitmore, you are under arrest," announced one of the officers, a tall, serious-looking woman. The room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop as the officer continued, "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law..."Lyra's mouth fell open in disbelief, her confidence before the show now replaced with panic."This is absurd!
