Elena’s POV

I slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings. Everything was still blurry, but I heard the sound of my name being called.

"Elena...Elena, can you hear me?"

I tried to respond, but my voice was hoarse and barely audible. I cleared my throat, trying again.

"D-Daniel?"

Suddenly, a familiar face came into focus. Daniel's worried expression filled my vision, and I felt a wave of relief wash over me.

"Elena, oh thank God you're awake," Daniel said, his voice trembling with emotion. "I was so scared. What happened?"

I tried to remember, but my memories were hazy. I recalled arguing with Alex, and then...nothing.

"I-I don't know," I stammered. "I remember fighting with Alex, and then I must have fallen or something."

Daniel's expression turned grim. "You fell down the stairs. Luckily, someone found you and called for help. You've been unconscious for hours."

I need your help," I said, trying to keep my voice steady."What's wrong?" he asked, his tone immediately concerned."The FBI just called. They're investigating my company for some alleged illegal activity. I don't know what's going on or who could be behind this."Daniel's response was immediate. "I'm on my way. Don't say anything to anyone until I get there. We'll face this together."I nodded, even though he couldn't see me. "Okay, I'll wait for you."I hung up the phone and tried to focus on the work in front of me, but my mind was a jumble of worries. Who could be trying to sabotage me? And what did they think I had done?Before long, Daniel burst through the door, his face set in a determined expression.

"What do you need me to do?""I want you to dig up dirt on Alex's sisters. I want to know everything about them - where they live, what they do, who they associate with.

I want to hurt him like he hurt me. And I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen."John's expression turned serious. "I understand. But are you sure you're ready for this? Once we start down this path, there's no turning back."I nodded, my jaw set. "I'm positive. I'll do whatever it takes to destroy Alex and everything he holds dear."John nodded, a small smile playing on his lips. "Alright, let's get started. We'll take him down, together."I felt a surge of excitement and determination. I was done

It's John," he said, his voice low and serious.I walked away from Daniel, finding a quiet spot to talk. "Hey, John. What's up? Did you find out anything about Alex's sisters?"There was a pause on the other end of the line. "I did. But it's not what I expected. Can we meet in person to discuss?"My curiosity was piqued. "Of course. Where and when?""How about the coffee shop on 5th Street at 2 pm?"I nodded, even though he couldn't see me. "I'll be there."As I hung up the phone, I couldn't help but wonder what John had discovered. And why did he want to meet in person?

I had to get back to work and make sure everything was running smoothly.As I sat down at my desk, my phone buzzed with a text from John. "I've made some inquiries. Rachel's daughter is being kept at a secure location. Alex has been using her as leverage to keep Rachel in line."My heart sank. Poor Rachel. I had no idea she was going through so much.I typed out a response. "Thanks for the info. Keep digging. I want to know everything."I put my phone down and tried to focus on work, but my mind kept wandering back to the plan. Was I going to go through with it? Was I going to ruin an innocent girl's life just to get back at Alex?I shook my head, trying to clear my doubts. I had to stay focused. I had to see th

He deserved it, and so did I.I booked a cozy bed and breakfast in a quaint town a few hours away and surprised Daniel with the news. His face lit up with excitement, and for a moment, I saw the old Daniel, the one who wasn't worried about me or my antics."Thank you, Elena," he said, his voice filled with emotion. "I needed this. We needed this."I smiled, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. Maybe, just maybe, this was the start of something

What are you doing here?"Alex slowly turned, a smirk playing on his lips. "You told me to come, remember? You texted me."Daniel’s confusion deepened. "No, I didn’t! I never texted you."I couldn’t help but enjoy the unraveling drama. With a sly smile, I crossed my legs and leaned back. "Wow, Daniel, I’m impressed. You’re truly something. But let me clear the air—I did the texting. I needed you both here. After all, birds of the same feather…"Daniel, pale and anxious, stood up and grabbed my arm.

And why was he being so secretive?But for now, I pushed those thoughts aside and focused on rest. I slept for a few hours, waking up feeling slightly better.When I walked into the living room, Daniel was sitting on the couch, watching TV. He smiled when he saw me, and I forced a smile back."Hey, how was your day?" he asked, patting the couch next to him.I sat down, trying to act normal. "It was fine.

"He wants us to merge our properties and make him the sole owner," I said, watching for her reaction.Phila's expression turned thoughtful. "That's a big decision," she said. "What do you think about it?"I shrugged. "I don't know. That's why I'm asking for your opinion."Phila leaned back in her chair, steepling her fingers together. "If I were to advise you, I'd say keep your property to yourself."I raised an eyebrow. "Why?"Phila's expression turned serious. "You can't trust anybody, Elena. Especially when it comes to something you've worked hard for. You know what Uncle Smith tried to do to you. What if Daniel...?"I held up a hand, stopping her. "Daniel would never do that to me.

Alex has escaped from custody."My heart skipped a beat as I felt a surge of fear. "What? How did that happen?""We're not entirely sure yet," Detective James replied. "But we're working on it.
