Rebirth of the scheming wife A win is a win
/Valeri’s POV/“These days, I find it hard to understand how ordinary assistants, for example, errand boys clean up nicely and afford expensive things,” she says checking Grey out and dusting his collar slightly even though there is nothing on the collar and my jaw drops in shock because how could my bitch sister refer to an egoistic person like Grey as an errand boy……I am so sure that he is not going to let this slide. “The truth is that I wanted to ask for your hand in marriage without being too obvious about it,” he says, confusing me further because, at this point, I find it hard to understand if I am the one he is talking to since he is looking at Mathilda instead. “It is understandable that your boss has heard a lot about our family and because of that he wants to be related to us, so where is he?” she inquires looking around the room while I follow her eyes to search for who she is looking for with her because at this point I feel that there is something that she is seeing tha

/Grey’s POV/ “Hi there,” Maddison says, being unnecessarily cheerful as she approaches me which takes me aback because given the kind of person that she is, she can’t just be here to say hi and go back. “Congratulations on your wedding,” she says stretching forth her hand to shake me, while I contemplate on either leaving her hanging or taking the handshake for a while. “Thank you very much,” I say, taking her hand briefly and shaking it so that the whole conversation and exchange doesn’t get weirder than it already is. “I don’t see your bride anywhere,” she says looking around. “If you stick around long enough, you are going to see her,” I answer her. “I can’t wait to cross-examine my replacement,” she says with her voice dropping to a whisper. “If you have eyes and ears around me despite how guarded I am with information and the type of people that I allow to work for me, then I am very sure that you must have all the information you need to know about her by now,” I say refer

|GREY’s POV| Kyle and I make our way out of the party venue into the elevator without saying anything to each other, but I am 100 percent sure that without me having to say anything, he can tell that I am so pissed and today is not just the day that I can wear my poker face and pretend that everything is right because I hate people testing me, spying on me and trying to act smart with me, but those words perfectly describe what Maddison is trying to do with me and I am not enjoying it at all. “I will stand guard outside,” Kyle offers as soon as we walk out of the elevator and approach the said room 306 which has an epoxy resin sign with 306 displaying through the work of art, indicating that I am at the right place and Madison’s assistant that I don’t like, standing in front of the room as if his job description is that of a bodyguard instead of a personal assistant. “Thank you,” I mutter before going in because sometimes I get the feeling that I don’t show that I value my best fri

|Valeri’s POV| After the rather unsettling exchange of words that I had with Mathilda, I started looking around for Grey who was supposed to be talking to my dad, but my dad was busy talking to investors and Grey was not with him. I started looking around the room for Grey without success but one thing that I found strange was that Madison, Kyle, and Grey suddenly disappeared from the hall I started wondering if they had something on their sleeves because a lot of things had changed from the wedding that I witnessed in my past life and I have no idea if the reason for me feeling so out of place at this wedding is because I didn’t pay so much attention to what was going on around me then. Grey and his best friend finally decided to grace us with their presence, and after they did the wedding part started properly with Grey and I exchanging rings, and saying our vows which was nothing special… we just repeated after the officiating minister and after that, we were asked to seal our ma

/Grey’s POV/ Thankfully, the sham of a wedding has finally come to an end, and all I just need to do now is to make a mental note of a few people that has close ties to Jack Donald’s and his company because I think they may come in handy eventually. “Hey man,” I lean backward in an attempt to give Kyle instructions, then it suddenly occurs to me that he is nowhere around because he was busy spreading his gospel during my wedding, trying to mingle with his latest catch that turned out to be the feisty blonde from earlier. Anyway, I don’t blame him…..man’s got to do what they have to do to keep his body and soul together more so, we have been through a whole lot today so he should get to blow some steam while I carry on with my plans. “There he is,” Jack Donald’s voice resounds, pointing in my direction. “Grey……” he calls out to me. “Meet Mr. Collins, one of the latest investors in our fashion house,” Jack Donald introduces me and I pause as I take in the sight of Madison’s fa

/Grey’s POV/ I make my way out of the hotel without anyone trying to talk to me because people outside the business world barely know me, and in no time I locate my car that the bodyguards packed right in front of the hotel instead of the parking lot so that it is easy to locate them. I try to wait outside for Kyle for a few minutes, but he seems to be taking forever to step out of the same hotel that I just walked out of, so I decide to wait in the car instead because my body is more than tired from the rigorous activities that I put it through today, and I am not about to collapse, not at this point in my life that I have a revenge plan that is starting to take shape to stick to. “Hey,” I acknowledge my little crush that I completely forgot that I asked to wait in the car for me, as soon as I set my foot in the car so that I don’t come off as rude. “Hi,” she answers without lifting her face from the phone that she is busy pressing. “It is nice that she seems to not have time f

/Grey’s POV/ “Can I talk to you for a few seconds?” I speak up, gesturing at Kyle after leaving everyone to jubilate for a while. “As long as you people talking means that I get take my bestie inside, then you guys will be joining us later, then I am super cool with that,” she tables her condition while I stop to process what she is saying especially because Kyle keeps acting like he doesn’t know that I just want to get rid of the talkative blonde so that we can talk in private. “Whatever sails your boat,” I reply to her because I will subscribe to anything just to get her off my track. “I like that…” she says sending me an exaggerated wink while shaking her body back and forth. “I know that we are going to get along so well,” she says as she moves from my side and goes away from the window. “What the hell man?” I mouth to Kyle as soon as Miss Blonde’s attention is focused on talking to my little crush. “Calm down man! I got this,” he assures me, and I hiss because he is ac

I was still trying to process why she came in person instead of getting back to me like we agreed on the phone then I saw how she was all over Grey acting like a crazy fan girl to obviously annoy him. While still on the topic of annoying my husband, I found out that the idea that she wanted to come up with was a double date between Grey, me, her, and Kyle.Even though I was dying out of embarrassment, I had to act cool about the whole situation while praying deep down that she won’t irritate Grey any further than she was already doing because I knew that I will be the one to suffer the consequences of her actions. Thankfully, Grey was not in the mood to act like the egoistic and self-centered person that he always is because he just allow

Rebirth of the scheming wife Discovery of my cheating wife
|GREY’S POV|My day started with a series of impromptu meetings and I just had to be on the ground even though Kyle offered to attend the meetings because I have a problem of making sure that I get things done by myself, and towards the end of the meeting, Kyle had to book Valeri and me another flight because we missed our flight already.The flight was quite interesting at first because it was quite interesting to watch Valeri make a fool of herself but she eventually slept and I just ended up going through the magazines that were provided on the plane.When I got bored, I slept for a while and woke up a few minutes before the plane landed, so I woke Valeri up so that we could finish the offboarding formalities.Immediately after we finished our offboarding formalities, I turned on my phone to talk to Kylee who confirmed the dinner reservation that he scheduled in advance with the CEO of Tobias International Holdings, so I dropped Valeri off at the hotel and came all the way here so

|VALERI’S POV|With the help of the PNEUMIA app, I am able to access the important reservations that Grey booked in advance for us via the link he sent, and on checking into the chic hotel in the heart of the city, my heart starts pounding with the thrill of what is to come ahead of me.“Wow, this place is amazing!”“Can’t wait to unpack and call Vee,” I mutter as I drop my things and I start to fish out for my phone in my bag.“Hey, mama…” I speak up as soon as the call connects, but Vee’s end of the call is quiet.“Before you eat my ears out, you need to know that I called you as soon as I got into my room,” I explain almost immediately, only for the phone to start vibrating on my ear.“Hey babes,” Vee says, waiving me as soon as I pick up the video call.“If you are all dressed to go out, we can always talk later,” I suggest.“It’s not a big deal,” she waves.“More so, my date won’t be here until the next ten minutes, so we have enough time to catch up,” she says.“I have only been
Rebirth of the scheming wife Journey to Pearl coast
|VALERI’S POV|The last few hours have been a roller coaster of stress, with Grey Remington showing up at the Clinton baking company to pick me up for shopping.I was completely taken aback by the fact that he knew where to find me, uncomfortable with his pretentious act of acting like the perfect husband to me, and suffocated with being choked by his attention because I didn’t ask for any of it, but he won’t let me be, and I just had to deal with it because there was no valid excuse I could tender as a valid escape reason.I knew that the whole motive behind the shopping and unnecessary attention was to give the impression that he loved and appreciated me which worked quite well in my past life, but I found it extremely disgusting in this life.I tried to shoo him away from me but he claimed he wanted to keep me company while I packed, so I had no choice but to tolerate him.I eventually got the perfect escape to pretend to be asleep after Grey stepped out of my room to attend a Zoom
Rebirth of the scheming wife Journey to self love
|VALERI’S POV|“Having lunch,” she answers.“Lunch?” I question and she nods.“I thought you said that waiting for our enemies to make moves won’t cut it for us, so we need to start taking laws into our hands before we are forced to lay down all our trump cards on the table,” I remind her because I am expecting her to keep the energy that she started with going.“Yea… I know that,” she answers as she ignites the vehicle.“I was just mad that you were avoiding being intimate with Grey Remington and from the little interaction that I have, I know that Grey Remington is a very smart person, so there was no way he wouldn’t start suspecting especially when you avoid something as important as you guys’ honeymoon and he will start paying unnecessary attention to his moves which is not what we want at all,” she explains with her eyes burning with determination while her hand is animated as she talks instead of the hands being on the steering wheel.“We have leverage over Grey with the knowled

|Valeri’s POV| “What the fuck just happened?” I ask as I blink back in shock realizing that Vee just walked out on me when we are in the middle of an argument. “Did Vee and I just fight over this whole revenge thing?” “What did I do wrong to make our misunderstanding escalate in a matter of seconds?” “Was I the problem?” “I stop to ask myself a series of questions as I replay the events that just happened in my head,” “What is the way forward for me now?” “Should I just ignore the fact that my bestie and I are at odds and just focus on the issue at hand?” I bombard myself with a series of questions. “You know what?” I say to myself. “I will just ignore whatever Vee and I have going on between us and focus on the honeymoon shenanigan since she asked me to do what pleases me,” I hiss angrily as I try to go back to my work. I try to focus on my work but I can’t seem to concentrate because that is exactly what happens to me when I am fighting with my bestie, I can’t
Rebirth of the scheming wife Honey moon shenanigans
|Valeri’s POV| I stay in the same position that I have been since Grey's message came in, reading and re-reading the message over and over again because I can’t seem to wrap my head around why I am getting such a text from him. “Valeri, let’s make unforgettable memories together by going on a honeymoon trip together this Thursday,” he sent. “I have called your secretary to clear your schedule from this afternoon so that you can have enough time to pack your things because you deserve a trip like this and more,” I read again. I have been suppressing the urge to call Vee to get her ass up here since I got the message, but I know that she is busy with her first photo shoot with Donald’s Couture, and if it was just our company that was involved, I would have dragged her out and made her reschedule the shoot for another time, but we are a collaborating with other brands. Also, this first shoot is kind of huge for Vivian because today is just day three of her working in Donald’s
Rebirth of the scheming wife Revenge must be gotten
|GREY’S POV| “Hey, I am talking to you,” I suddenly see Kyle in front of me snapping his finger in front of me. “How can I help you?” I question him. “How can you help me?” he scoffs. “Every single time I talked to you, you have been absent-minded, making me repeat myself countless times and you seriously think there is nothing wrong with that?” he argues “What is it this time,” I question him. “It was understandable that you were able to see not motivated to work on Monday because we went through a lot last week, but this is Wednesday and you still had the same attitude you had on Monday,” he complains “What attitude did I have?” I ask Him. “You keep on zoning out,” he complains bitterly. “I have not been zoning out, I have just been critically thinking about something,” I correct him. “What is so important that is making the mighty Grey Remington’s brow take a worried curve?” he inquires, taking his seat in front of me, with worry lacing his voice. “It is not somethi
Rebirth of the scheming wife First day at work
/Valeri’s POV/ “After an extremely chaotic get-ready with me on a Monday morning, I am finally at work so let's get right into what we have to do today,” I try to motivate myself as I step out of the elevator and make my way to my office. “Hey babes,” Vee sneaks up on me, putting her arms around me. “You are looking really beautiful and radiant this morning,” she complements and I smile. “Thank you babes……you also look very beautiful and radiant,” I compliment her, playing with her cheeks as we both burst out laughing. “So how is everybody on your end, and how did your talk with Grey go?” she inquires, and I look around to be sure that no one heard us. “You completely forgot to give me a heads up,” she grumbles. “Shhhh…..there are eyes and ears everywhere in this office and the last thing I want is for gossip to start flying around just because my spoiled sister and her minions think they know what is going on in my life,” I caution her, as I drag her into my office. “Now that
Rebirth of the scheming wife A perfect wedding present indeed
|GREY’S POV| As if dealing with a drunk wife the whole night was not enough, my first wife came to the room to ally with my ‘little crush’ this morning right in front of me, using the identity of my first cousin and that is rather Unsettling because I have thought of various reason why Maddison will want to be friends with someone like Valeri especially when both of them look so incompatible but the only logical explanation that I can find is that Maddison just wants to make things hard for me even though I already warned her to stay out of my business. “Not today Satan,” I muttered as I walked out of the room because I had a lot of stuff to take care of, especially concerning Maddison’s father who is now on my radar so I couldn’t add Madison’s silly stunt to what I had on my plate. I have been busy with Kyle the whole day trying to figure out how we are going to start putting the people that we bought over at Donald’s Couture to work because I want to take over Donald’s property
