That night after dinner, Bethany sat by the window in the mansion. She was working on her draft with her lap in front of her. She picked up Zayn's card and took a quick look at it. Then, she scoffed before throwing it to the side. “Zayn, I'm very sure you'd never think that I'll still be alive and kicking, right? Your bad I'm still here”. “Ms.Burnett, Miss Burnett! Have a look at this. it's that annoying and vicious woman! ” The little girl waddled over to Bethany and handed the phone over to her. Bethany lowered her head to take a look at the content on the screen. She noticed that it was a video of her and Danica back at the KFC. Someone had captured this scene and uploaded the video online. Zayn was a very well-known person in Braeton city, so it was only natural that everyone would be interested in whatever happened between him and Danica. Now, Danica's refusal to apologise after she ran into someone in KFC and her arrogant attitude right after was being witnessed by everyo
The next morning, Bethany came down after getting dressed in her exquisite dress. When she came down, Erica was already waiting for her in the living room with another person, whose face was covered with a face mask. “I've made all the arrangements. There is no need for you to worry at all” Erica said as she turned back to look at the person standing by her side. Bethany shot a seemingly glare at the person before she took her face away once more. “I'm heading out to the condo, make sure nothing goes wrong with the auction today” She instructed. “Also, Jenna needs to be admitted to the school when the holidays are over”. “Yes, I understand. Don't worry I'll handle things around here. Do you have to go? It's a holiday today right? You should stay for the rest of the day”. “No, I have to head out” With that, Bethany headed in a hurry since it was almost dawn. …..By 9:am in the morning, a young, beautiful, and elegant lady was seen walking into a fashion boutique in the centre of
After she said that, everyone looked at her with shock written all over their faces. Danica was so angry that she almost ripped the placard into many pieces. ‘Was this woman purposely going against me to make me lose face in front of others? How dare she go against me like this?!’ How would Danica allow something like this? She lifted the placard once again. Everyone thought that Danica would add on a few million dollars. However, she only added a million. The moment she finished saying that, Bethany said nonchalantly,“ 20 million ”. “What!? Wow!”. Everyone exclaimed. Danica could not stand this anymore as she tried to suppress the fire of rage inside of her and glared at Bethany. Then, she forced out an innocent and sweet smile to Bethany. “Miss, were you hired by the other party to come here and deliberately inflate the price? Everyone knows that my fiancé is going to buy this shop for me as my birthday present. Could it be that you enjoy stealing things from others?”“Stea
After coming out of the hall, Danica, who had been looking for Zayn, finally heaved a sigh. “Zayn? Why are you here? The woman....l." Without saying a word. Zayn ignored Danica as he headed home straight. Danica felt very miserable when she was left behind like this. So, she stormed out of the place with her long gown cupped into her hands as she looked around dejectedly. Soon after, her eyes fell on a car parked a few miles away from the hotel. She tottered over in anger. “Why did it take you so long to come to fetch me? Are you tired of your jobb already?"Danica tried to vent her anger at the driver. “I'm so sorry, Miss Danica; it's just that the traffic was a bit jam-packed." Without saying any more words, she got into the car as her expression remained clouded with anger. Who is this lady who dares to berate and humiliate me in front of others? I need to see the face behind that ugly veil!’ Danica thought as she clenched her fists. On the way, Danica contacted her most trus
“I'm waiting outside. I have the video with me as well." Hesper said this to the person on the other end of the line as soon as the phone was connected. “Just wait outside the gate. Someone will pick you up just now." After that, the call was disconnected. Within a twinkle of an eye, a black car soon stopped right in front of Hesper. Without being instructed, Hesler tottered toward the car and got into it immediately. As soon as she got inside, the car sped off, leaving heavy dust behind as it zoomed off in a big hurry. …. Back in the mansion, Danica got fed up after seeing Matilda come back into the house after escorting Vesper to the gate. “Wow, I see that you have become such a good keeper of the helpers. Isn't it ironic that you are so friendly with a maid who dared to raise her brows to me? Are you maybe cooking up some silly plots in your head against me, Aunt? If that's the case, then I wouldn't be so kind as to let you stay in my house if I found out what you were up to,
A car suddenly stopped in front of an old warehouse. It was already dark at night, so the environment could not be seen clearly. Bethany came out of the car. She was dressed in a black dress with a hoodie and a mask covering her face; her fair skin was hidden underneath the black clothes. Jacob came down as well and walked over to meet Bethany, as he wanted her to take the next step. In the next split second, Bethany raised her head to look at the warehouse building in front of her before she started walking. Then, Jacob trailed after her with AirPods fixed in his ears as he waited for any information that might come in. After walking into the building, a man soon appeared from one of the rooms as he sped up to meet up with Bethany. “This way, ma'am, he's in the center hall,” Darin said as he beckoned Bethany to walk in the direction that he was pointing. “What did he say? Did he reveal the identity of the person who sent them already?” Bethany asked with her eyes fixed on the r
Her boyfriend! Danica felt a thorn in her heart. When she met her at the KFC, she remembered she was wearing a ring on her ring finger. Was she engaged? Danica was extremely upset about this because she had spent her entire life attempting to get Zayn's attention, but an unattractive, deformed woman who appeared out of nowhere could. She couldn't accept this fact as it was placed in front of her. She clenched her fists tightly, and her teeth gritted involuntarily. After a while, she stood up and left the cafe in rage. She got back to the house and went straight to her room since Jordan was still staying at the Meyers. However, Zayn was supposed to bring him over later tonight. Upon getting to her room, she dropped her bag on the bed and sat beside it with an aggrieved expression. She was disheartened by the fact that she couldn't find anything tangible about the woman who had dared to double-cross and humiliate her. She took a cigarette from the bedside and lit it up. Soon aft
They sat at the center table at the cafe as they ate their lunch in silence.Zayn didn't bother about the scary glares from all the people around, as he simply buried his head in the conversation he was having with Bethany."I wanted to talk to you about this." Just as Bethany was about to say something, the waiter soon arrived with the bills.She picked up the little piece of paper and pretended to be tense upon seeing the huge amount on the paper.The expression on her face was quickly replaced by a warm smile. Suddenly, Joanna appeared from the other side of the corner of the restaurant.As soon as she was about to enter the cafe, her eyes suddenly fell on the figure of two people sitting across from her at the center table.She recognized them immediately.Upon laying her eyes on them, she quickly dodged aside to avoid being seen. After successfully hiding away, she turned back to confirm if what she saw was real or if she was imagining things.After looking at them for a few seco
