“Victória Lazer, what are you doing here?” He wasn't a man with feelings, who held grudges or who liked to make life difficult for women, but Victória was different. She drugged him. And then she had sex with him. And now, she had the nerve to appear in front of him, which naturally made him indignant. But how was Victória going to explain that it was actually all a plan by her family so that they would get her mother's inheritance? Her father, grandmother, stepmother and half-sister were all against her!
View MoreThey were repeatedly told to keep Samanta's engagement a secret, and the young woman instructed them to ensure that the design of her wedding dress was also kept confidential.JB was a reputable fashion design agency that took its clients' privacy very seriously, but the original article that had been posted online had clearly stated its source of information was the designer who had designed Samanta's wedding dress, and the article clearly and firmly pointed to a single informant.It was tantamount to announcing to the world that Victoria had been the one to leak the news. But Jayric didn't believe the article, of course. He knew that Victoria couldn't have done something like that. However, he wasn't sure that she wasn't responsible, maybe it was an accidental slip of the tongue, or maybe it was extenuating circumstances.Jayric didn't want to suspect Victoria, after all, he liked the young woman very much. Besides, he had observed the way she worked and conducted her business, so s
Meanwhile, on the other side of town, in a quiet spot, Lazarus was sitting in his black car parked in the shadows.The young man stared expressionlessly out of the window of his car and into the darkness, where the deep-water port would be, and construction had not yet begun.He had his eye on this piece of land. But, unfortunately, the land belonged to the Carsons, and Lazarus had been looking for an opportunity to get his hands on the land for some time, but every time, Jackson intervened at the most opportune moment before he could succeed, and this happened last time when Jackson bought a textile factory next to the piece of land.Lazarus had his eye on that factory too, and he had plans to buy the textile factory as well. But Jackson had done that before Lazarus could, and now, Jackson had a complete monopoly over the piece of land, so if he managed to build a port, he would be able to create a new shipping route that would give him access to other cities.It would be another ste
“Well, thank you for thinking of her, President Carson. As you can see, she's fine, so can you go now?” said Victoria.Jackson didn't seem to be in any hurry to go, in fact, he gave her a long look before changing the subject without any warning. “And how was your meeting with Mr. Spector?” he asked over dinner, and Victoria frowned. What was wrong with the man? Why had he mentioned it?“That's none of your business, President Carson,” replied Victoria, struggling fiercely to free herself. “I won't agree to another DNA test. It's inappropriate and disrespectful to my cousin, after all, they are her children.”No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't free herself from the man's grip, and Jackson simply laughed softly. He seemed to be tickled.“Your cousin is the mother, and your cousin is the father? Right!” Jackson tightened his grip on the young woman. “So why do his children look so much like me?” His warm breath hit Victoria's cheeks like waves of heat. Victoria couldn't m
The twins immediately stood up and started waving their chubby little arms. Victoria ignored the twinge of pain in her chest, walked past her angels and pulled Jackson up from the floor. “President Carson, can we step outside for a minute, please?” Then she turned to her children, they looked ready to throw their little bodies at her, but she pushed down the anguish growing inside her. “Enzo, Lara, your aunt needs to go out for a minute. I'll be back before you know it, okay?” She didn't give Enzo or Lara time to react to what she had just said, and instead, she dragged Jackson out of the apartment immediately, and soon after, Valentina ran towards the children and hugged them. “Enzo, Lara, have you forgotten what Mommy said earlier?” Enzo looked totally clueless. Lara was equally perplexed. She had no idea what Valentina was talking about. “Don't you remember what Mommy told you?” Valentina said patiently. “She told you to call her 'auntie' when Jackson is around. If
“Don't panic. Keep him busy. I'm coming back now.”Victoria hung up immediately and then turned to Harvey with an apologetic look on her face. “I'm sorry, Harvey, there's been an emergency at home, and I need to get back now. I'm so sorry. I can't believe I'm letting you finish dinner alone...”Harvey was not a stingy man and he knew he couldn't keep Victoria there when she clearly had an emergency to attend to. He knew that Victoria wasn't lying. He had heard parts of the conversation before. He knew that something terrible had happened. “Don't worry about it, Victoria. Let me give you a ride.” The man rubbed his lips lightly with his napkin before getting up, but Victória wasn't going to bother him for a ride.She was leaving in the middle of dinner. That alone made her feel terrible enough. She shook her head apologetically. “Thanks for the offer, Harvey. I can go home on my own, don't worry, but I'm really sorry. I'll buy you dinner another time.”Victoria seemed insistent, and
Meanwhile, outside the Village, Jackson had collected his car keys and was going to pay a visit to Valentina's apartment to see Lara and Enzo. Before leaving the restaurant, he called Maison, who was supposed to come to the restaurant now and wait outside. “If Harvey doesn't give Victoria a lift home after dinner, you'll take her home,” Jackson instructed. Having given his orders, he started the car and headed towards Victoria's apartment.He stopped at a shopping center and bought some expensive toys that he knew were extremely popular with children. He hadn't seen Lara since her attempted kidnapping. “I guess I should stop by and see if she's recovered from the incident,” he thought. It had been a long time since he had cared for someone, and the girl seemed like part of his family. The results of the DNA report said otherwise, but his instincts told him that she was his daughter. “I'm going to do another DNA test. If the results remain unchanged, I'll give up,” he decided. Thi
Was this Noemia's plan all along? Was Noemia trying to set her up with Noemia's cousin?No matter how strange the atmosphere, they had to get through dinner somehow, and Victoria needed Harvey's help, and the man agreed to help her. She couldn't get up and let him dine alone, so she put aside her feelings of embarrassment and started browsing the menu before placing her order.Harvey filled his glass with red wine and studied Victoria in silence as he swirled the wine in his hand. He had met countless beautiful people in his line of work. However, few were as beautiful as Victoria. He was overcome by the urge to have her as soon as his eyes landed on her, and it had been some time since Harvey had met a woman as attractive as Victoria.The man silently admired Victoria's beauty. Meanwhile, Victoria had no idea that she was the object of the man's appreciative gaze, and she placed her orders and handed the menu back to Harvey.“I've already ordered,&
The man smiled faintly before slamming his foot on the gas pedal.The car left Valentina's apartment and drove down the street, neither of them speaking during the journey, the car filled with a tense silence. A silence that was punctuated by their breathing, and there was something terribly suggestive about it all.Victoria tried to stop staring at the man, and turned and looked out of the window at the lights streaming past her. The gears in her head began to turn furiously. How was she going to get rid of Jackson? Should she tell him to leave her alone? Maybe she should ask him to join them, but the latter option didn't seem appropriate.She was having dinner with Noemia's cousin because she needed his help as a lawyer, and she wasn't really going on a date. What was she supposed to do? Victoria couldn't think of a solution, no matter how hard she tried, and they were going to get to the restaurant soon.“Don't worry, I'm not having dinner with you. I'm not interested in becoming t
The young woman went to the elevator and pressed the button next to it, heading for the lobby. Noemia wanted to give her a ride to the restaurant, but something came up unexpectedly, and she wouldn't be able to do it for dinner. She texted Victoria the address of the restaurant and told her to call a cab, and she would pay for the ride.Victoria didn't want to be late for her first meeting with a lawyer, so she rushed to the entrance. Perhaps she was in too much of a hurry and didn't pay much attention to the man coming towards her, smoking a cigarette. The moment their shoulders brushed, the man reached out and grabbed Victoria by the wrist, pulling her towards him.Victoria fell heavily against his firm chest.“Where are you going dressed so nice at night? Is it a date?” The young woman heard a low, husky voice in her ear.There was a clear possessive note in the man's voice, who spoke as if he owned Victoria. At that moment, the young woman instantly raised her head, her eyelids tw
In an expensive suite of one of São Paulo's most luxurious hotels, a slender figure was sprawled on the lavish bed. The man standing beside the bed brushed aside the young woman’s soft, blonde hair, revealing a face with unique features. Her rosy lips appeared dry. “It’s so dry here!” she exclaimed. “I need water!” The man beside the bed scoffed disdainfully, picked up his phone, and walked out to make a call. “Are you coming soon? She’s in room 268, and the effects of the drug are starting to show. But remember, take some spicy photos for me when you're done.” “Don’t worry, I’m almost there!” The suite door closed, and the person on the phone hadn’t noticed that the girl on the bed was watching him. Victoria propped up her weakened body as she got out of bed. A surge of unfamiliar heat burned through her body, and with the little strength she had left, she staggered out into the hotel corridor, trembling. She knew her half-sister, Ciara, was behind this, and she could...
