Sunday, the next day.Morning at the Donovan mansion.Charles stared at his grandpa, his mind far from what the Old Man was saying."Explain yourself?", Ryn demanded angrily, holding out his phone for his grandson to see.Charles shrugged.Ryn hissed at his grandson's nonchalant attitude, "what will your fiancee think?"."Does it matter, moreover she was aware?" Charles answered calmly.“Excuse me….”, Ryn choked on his grandson's words.“Don't you have any shame, what will the world think? You were having an affair with our business partner”."I never cared about what the world thought, so why should I start now", Charles answered, tapping his foot impatiently.Ryn shook his head. “Fine, don't care about yourself, what about her, what about her reputation?".Charles groaned, running his hand through his hair. “His grandpa was right, he was being stupid right now. What about Taylor, she was involved in the scandal too".Charles whipped his phone out and dialed a number, "Jack, I want y
About what......wait how did you find out?", Kate asked surprised, as she rubbed her forehead, "just great", she thought.Seriously Kate?, Literally the whole world knows", Andrew groaned trying to stay calm."I don't understand Andrew ", Kate signed confused."You tell me Kate, your affair with the King of business is all over the net", Andrew yelled, jealousy in his tone."Apparently someone took a picture of the both of you making out at the terrace at yesterday's event and made a scandal out of it", Andrew slammed his fist on his desk."Great another gossip", Kate thought sarcastically and she could only think about one person who was behind it, Rose. Rose had already hurt Kate's ego by getting engaged to Charles, and dared to humiliate her by revealing her and Charles' affair, turning it into a scandal."At least the billionaire did one good thing, he took down the post before it could become a disaster", Andrew said relieved."That's good news", Kate shrugged.Kate heard Andrew
Monday 15th, August, 2022.In the morning, at Fast Tech Limited. Rose sat on her cushioned office chair, a satisfied smile on her face.She relaxed in the chair. "Rose dear you're very smart", she praised, grinning.She had finally gotten back at Taylor, by revealing her and Charles' affair turning it into a scandal, just when the whole world found out she was engaged to Charles."What did Taylor think, that she'll just sit and watch the two of them continue with their silly game - affair. No, Charles was her fiance", Rose thought with a sly smile."Now no one will dare mess with her knowing she is going to be the next Mrs Donovan"."She did it", Rose thought proudly. She was no more the poor and low-class Rose from the past rather a rich and classy woman, getting all the rights the rich enjoy. And was soon going to be the mistress of the most influential family in the city, from rags to riches.Rose always wondered why people like Kate -self-centered, bratty rich kids, were privileg
Kate hissed, walking into the company, heading to the elevator, she spotted Jack standing right in front of the elevator. “Was he waiting for someone”, she wondered."Morning Jack", she greeted as she got close."Morning Miss Cosgrove", Jack bowed slightly."What are you doing here?"."Boss said I should wait here every morning to escort you to the office, you know due to your phobia", Jack explained."He did!"Kate exclaimed, surprised."Yes ma, I know I'm not meant to be saying this but my boss really cares about you Miss Cosgrove"."Hmmmm", Kate nodded, pressed a button and stepped in the elevator with Jack.The elevator stopped at the 30th floor as both of them stepped out."I'll take your leave", Jack informed and stepped back in the elevator.Kate watched Jack leave before walking towards the office, knowing Charles was already there. "Why couldn't there be another room where she could work", she whined in her head.She knocked on the door before stepping in. "Good morning Mr D
Lunch time at the cafeteria. Kate sat with Gracie eating while the latter ranted about Saturday's event. "I'm still shocked that Charles is engaged to that witch, that arrogant wanna be heiress", Gracie hissed angrily."And I’m sure she's also the one responsible for that post. It's a good thing you didn't see it Taylor, those netizens are just too much", Gracie shook her head."They were calling you all sorts of names, bad names and that you wanted to snatch Charles away from Rose, can you believe that'', she added with an eye roll."Are you done?", Kate asked with a sign seeing as Gracie stopped talking.Gracie stared at her friend in disbelief "aren't you a little bit angry about it?"."I would be lying if I say I wasn't angry at first but I don't care anymore, it has been removed anyway", Kate answered truthfully."But what about the comments, they were calling you bad names and spreading rumors about you, saying total nonsense, won't you defend yourself.....", Gracie stated angr
"You saw the state of the car when we got there, there was no way Kate could have survived that crash. No one knew she was going to drive late at night and meet with the accident", Nathaniel explained."So no one could stop her from leaving the house, it was because she had gone to meet him. Kyle Bruce, he's the reason for my daughter's death, why wasn't he punished", Tiffany shouted angrily, sitting up."How could anyone stop her Tiff, Kate's an adult and there was no evidence to prove Kyle was connected to Kate's accident or her death. We can't do anything to him as long as he isn't found guilty of the crime", Nathaniel explained in a gentle tone."She had gone to his house that night, the GPS tracker said so, he was the last person she saw, isn't that enough"."It still doesn't prove he's related to the accident or her death", Nathaniel said, rubbing the back of her hands gently, trying to calm her down."After we conducted some tests on the car, we found out that it was a mechanic
WednesdayAt Donovan's Car Enterprise, in the evening.Kate couldn't believe how fast time flies, it was almost time for her date with Kyle. They had agreed he'll come pick her up at the company by 5:00pm, she was doing the finishing touch to her makeup.As much as Kate hates the fact she was going on a date with Kyle, she won't miss the opportunity to doll herself up."You'll just have to survive the night with him Kate", she mentally told herself before stepping out her side of the office, her handbag in her hand.Charles raised his head hearing the clicking of heels, as it meant Taylor was leaving and couldn't help being blown away by her beauty."Where was she going all dolled up", he wondered, his Adam apple bobbed in restraint as he eyed her. "Taylor was a beauty and could make any man go crazy for her", he nodded in his head.Charles suddenly felt a surge of jealousy run through him, as he took long strides towards her."Where are you going?" he asked, trying to sound nonchal
At Onyx restaurant.Kate stared down at the food, before she was really hungry but now she didn't have the appetite to eat."You sure you're okay Beauty, cos since we got here you've been zoning out", Kyle said forcing Kate to look at him."Excuse me...oh sorry it's just got a lot of things on my mind", Kate said with an apologetic smile."Forget about them, and think about our date, your mind should be on me", Kyle winked, then stood up."Of course", Kate said, giving him a fake smile as she watched him walk away just to come back some minutes after holding two glasses of wine."Here it will help you relax," Kyle said, offering her a glass of wine."No thanks, I don't plan on getting drunk tonight", Kate declined his offer with a cute smile."Oh", Kyle nodded in understanding, "what about juice?"."No thanks, am good", Kate declined again.Kyle let out a chuckle sitting back down, "I am not going to drug you princess, so just relax and enjoy yourself"."Why do I have a hard time beli
