The Good Wife's Enemy 42: Chances
Margot expected Harry to be greedy but she didn’t know he’d never choose but have both at the same time. She locked herself in the guest room, leaving her husband and his mistress in the living room.“This is it,” Margot mumbled to herself, clutching her chest. She savored the pain she felt the moment Harry gave her the answer. “Keep it up, Harry. The moment I get used to this pain will be the end of you,” she said, holding back her tears.Margot had already given up on her marriage but it was undeniable that she was still in pain. She knew it takes time to heal but she had no time to spare. She only wished to get it over with and strike Harry back with her revenge.“Margot, open the door. Let’s talk,” Harry said, knocking. “As much as I wanted to do what you wanted, it’s already late at night. You don’t think Nadine would find a place to stay at this hour, do you?”“I don’t care,” Margot replied. “She can sleep in the streets or wherever but my house,” she grumbled, leaning her back

Margot tried but couldn’t stop thinking about what the doctor told her. She was supposed to be happy knowing there was a huge chance that the doctor misdiagnosed her, but instead, everything felt surreal.She was ready to drag Harry to hell no matter what, assuming she’d be dead in a few months. She was fearless while awaiting her end. However, Margot didn’t know what to do next if her cancer wasn't real. If she wasn’t going to die after setting up her revenge, she wondered if she’d be happy then.‘Should I continue making his life hell until we’re old?’ Margot thought to herself. Although she would love to make Harry suffer, she began to question if it would be wise to spend her life hating on her cheating soon-to-be ex-husband.“Ma’am, here are the documents you asked for,” Tricia said, placing a pile of documents on Margot’s table. “Is everything okay?” she couldn’t stop asking after seeing her boss’s pale complexion.Margot nodded and forced a smile. “Yeah. Can you get me a cup of

“No, you didn’t.” Margot gasped as she watched Nadine steal her jewelry in the master’s bedroom. She had no idea that Harry didn’t only take home a bitch but also a kleptomaniac. Her vision spun as she continued watching.In the footage, Nadine came back an hour after leaving the house with Harry in the morning.Margot left first as she didn’t want to deal with her husband while thinking about her illness. She couldn’t focus on anything that she wouldn’t mind even if Harry was flirting with his mistress.“This is going to be useful,” Margot mumbled, sending a copy of the video to her lawyer. She wasted no time and made sure she kept several copies in case Harry found out that she installed hidden cameras in the house. In her defense, Margot was still the owner of the house and she could do whatever she wanted.After watching the video, Margot went to the window to check downstairs. Nadine was talking to the truck driver about something before the latter left.“I can’t believe she’s so

Harry was having a meeting with the shareholders of the company when he received a call from Nadine. He didn’t think twice before answering it only to hear her sobbing from the other line.“Excuse me,” Harry said and walked out of the meeting room, earning negative comments from the others in the room.“What’s going on?” Harry asked his lover, concern was audible in his voice.Nadine didn’t say a word for a minute and cried. “Harry, your wife… She fell on the stairs! I don’t know what to do. There’s blood everywhere. She must have hurt her head,” Nadine stammered in between sobs.Harry was shocked by the news. “Why did she fall? Did you try waking her up? No, don’t touch her. Call an ambulance,” he said, rubbing his nape. “I’ll be there. Just call the ambulance for now,” he added before he hung up the phone.Meanwhile, Nadine smirked while looking at the unconscious Margot on the floor. It had been half an hour since the incident happened before she called Harry. She was confident tha

Two days passed since Margot fell from the stairs. She remained unconscious which worried her parents. Linda stayed in the hospital to take care of her while Ryan would drop by before and after work. As for Harry, he would only come once a day and wouldn’t even stay more than thirty minutes during his visit.“I can’t believe that guy. His wife is still in a coma yet he’s acting like it’s not a big deal. He seemed not to care at all,” Linda ranted her hands on her waist.Ryan sighed. “He’s busy with work. You know that the company has started a huge project. Margot was planning to do it but with her condition, I don’t think she should be working for a while,” he said, looking at his daughter in the hospital bed.“What did the doctor say? Any news about her waking up soon?” Ryan asked his wife.Linda shook her head. “He wasn’t sure either. The wound on Margot’s head caused internal bleeding but he said she should be safe by now. The problem is, the doctor doesn’t know for how long she’d

The sight of her parents crying in joy warmed Margot’s heart. She finally woke up after trying her best though it took her a day to open her eyes again.Margot realized that no matter what happened, her family would always be by her side. Sure, there would be misunderstanding leading to arguments but Margot knew her father and stepmother would never turn their backs on her.She felt guilty for doubting her father when he always watched her back despite her going against him. Margot wanted to apologize and tell them how grateful she was for having them in her life, but at the same time, she was worried about having cancer. Margot decided to keep her thoughts to herself until she got the result of her test.“It’s a wonderful thing that you’re awake. It has been three days,” Linda said, wiping her tears as she smiled at her stepdaughter. “The doctor said you can be discharged in the next two days. Your body may feel a bit numb for now after lying down for days but it can be resolved if y

“Are you sure you’re going to be alright? I can stay with you until you’re fully recovered,” Linda said, holding Margot’s hand after driving her home.Margot had to stay in the hospital for three more days before she was discharged. She was still wearing a bandage around her head but the wound was healing.“It’s fine, Mom. I can take care of myself. It was my fault for being careless last time,” Margot said and pulled back her hand. She gave Linda a flying kiss before getting out of her car.“Call me when you need a backup!” Linda said from the driver's seat, making her stepdaughter smile.“I will,” Margot replied, waving her hand. She walked toward the door of their house while checking the surroundings.Harry’s car was parked so she expected him to be home. While she was recuperating in the hospital, her husband never visited.Margot opened the door and found Nadine moving her things to the living room. She raised her eyebrow at the sight and greeted her husband’s mistress.“Well, w

“You’re gonna regret this, Margot. I swear!” Harry grabbed his hair in frustration after Margot took the car key and went back inside the house.She flashed a devilish smile at him and waved her hand. “Bye,” she mumbled before closing and locking the door.Harry was left outside with Nadine, not knowing what to do. The embarrassment he felt had reached the limit. He knew he wouldn’t forgive Margot for what she did.Meanwhile, Margot stood by the window and watched her husband leave with his mistress. “He didn’t even deny it. Who cares? I’m going to proceed as planned no matter what.”She took her phone and called her lawyer. “Atty. Powell, how’s everything?”Margot’s eyes narrowed for a moment before a sweet smile appeared on her lips. “Thanks for your hard work. My husband threatened me to divorce him. I have no problem with the divorce, but I don’t appreciate him bringing it up when he’s the one at fault,” she paused and looked at her reflection on the glass.“I want you to do somet

Harry sneered at his wife. “Better plans? What, divorcing me? No wonder you wouldn’t drop the talk about divorce. You’re using Nadine to get out of this marriage while acting like a victim. Hah! I didn’t expect you to have it in you—”A loud bang interrupted Harry when Leo slammed his hands on the table.“Excuse me, but I don’t think you should be doing this in my office,” he said, glancing over at Margot. “Especially when I have an ongoing session with a patient,” Leo stated, his voice laced with threat and hostility, hidden behind a deceptive smile he honed for years.“A patient, huh? What do you know?” Harry lashed out, glaring at him. “Do you even have an idea that she’s married? What an ignorant fool,” he commented.Margot sighed in exasperation. “Stop making a scene, Harry. You’re only embarrassing yourself,” she muttered before turning to Leo. “My apologies for this disturbance. Thank you for your assistance until now, Dr. Brown.” She smiled at the doctor and headed out.“Come o
The Good Wife's Enemy 71: Not At All
“Is everything alright?” Rosaline asked Margot, watching her vomit in the sink. The young woman looked horrified seeing her sister-in-law pale and gasping for breath.Margot nodded, wiping her lips. “Yeah. Don’t mind me,” she replied, but before she could make up an excuse, her stomach churned once again, leading her to continue puking.Rosaline watched her helplessly while rubbing her back. “I think I should call the doctor,” she said, feeling bad for Margot. “You look sick,” Rosaline insisted.“No, I’m fine. I’m almost done,” Margot smiled. She looked up after some time with teary eyes. “Relax. It’s fine. I’m fine,” she told Rosaline whose face was painted with concern.“Woah! That was longer than usual,” Margot muttered, washing her mouth. She smiled at Rosaline to reassure her that she was indeed fine. “It’s… Um…”Margot hesitated to tell Rosaline about her pregnancy. She wanted to keep it from Harry, after all. Not that she didn’t trust Rosaline, but she thought it would be bette
The Good Wife's Enemy 70: The Beginning of the End
“I couldn’t believe rumors like that are spreading within the employees,” Margot said, shaking her head in disbelief. She headed straight to her father’s office after meeting with Vivian.“Rumors tend to be exaggerated. So, did you decide to quit? And here I thought you’d take my position no matter what,” Ryan smirked, observing his daughter’s reaction.Margot shrugged. “It’s not that hard. I’ll just wait until you peacefully give up that seat of yours, then we won’t waste any time, or I can just kick out the current CEO and maybe start from there before becoming the chairman,” she nonchalantly replied. “What do you think is the best option?”Ryan sighed. “It’s too early for my retirement. So, why don’t you take the second option? It will benefit both you and the company,” he grinned, relying on his daughter’s ability.“Oh! Why do I feel like you’re just using me to get rid of the people you allowed in the company in the first place?” Margot rubbed her temple. “Well, you’re in luck. I
The Good Wife's Enemy 69: Resignation And Rumors
Margot grabbed her phone, calling the cops. She couldn’t believe Harry would be shameless to show up after what happened last night. She took a deep breath and waited until someone picked up her call.“Hi, this is Margot… Um… Walton. My husband, Harry Walton, who is already on your record for abuse, has come to my house again. I have a restraining order against him, and I feel threatened,” Margot said, looking at Harry who proudly held his banner.“He is currently on my doorstep, holding a banner that says ‘sorry’, but if you’ve been slapped and cheated on by this guy several times, that word wouldn’t be enough. I need immediate assistance to ensure my safety,” she continued. After giving her address to the cops, Margot called her lawyer.“Hello, Atty. Powell. It’s about the restraining order I requested that you process this morning… Hmm… Yes, please. I may need it. Harry’s back at my house,” Margot sighed, rubbing her temple. “I’ll be right there just in case. How about the matter
The Good Wife's Enemy 68: Preparing For The Storm
Margot didn’t go to work the next day because she had bad morning sickness. When Linda found out about it, she hurried home to accompany her.“I can’t believe what happened. Did that bastard hurt you?”Margot sighed before nodding her head slowly to her stepmother.“That bastard needs to be taught a lesson or two!” Linda roared, balling her hands into fists.Margot was surprised to see her stepmother like that. She realized Linda never acted that way until she told her about Harry’s illicit affair. She appreciated her company and couldn’t thank her enough for taking her side.“It’s okay. He won’t be able to do it again,” Margot replied before taking a spoonful of cake in her mouth. “I’ll make sure to send him where he belongs.”Linda bobbed her head with a gentle smile. “I’m glad to hear that. We’ll do everything so you’ll be free from that man,” she said, cutting another slice of cake for Margot. “I heard from your Dad that something’s happening in the company. He doesn’t know about
The Good Wife's Enemy 67: The Turning Point
“Who’s that man you’ve been seeing every week? Did you think I wouldn't know about him?”Margot’s ears perked at Harry’s statement. She couldn’t believe he wouldn’t stop assuming things he did himself. “Oh, please. Stop it.”Harry’s eyes glinted from Margot's reaction. He was almost sure she was also having an affair behind his back. “I’m telling you, Margot. I’ll keep my lips sealed about it if you want. But you have to clarify that we’re not having problems and what happened at the party last time was a misunderstanding.”A sly smile formed on his lips. “What do you think?”Margot’s face was painted with disgust. “Go ahead. Tell everyone about what you think. I didn’t commit any atrocities, so I’m not worried. I don’t know what made you think I'm like you, but good luck anyway.”She walked away when Harry opened his mouth again.“Leo Brown,” he said, following her. “Isn’t that name familiar? You’ve been meeting him in secret, haven't you? Is it every Friday?”Margot halted, speechle
The Good Wife's Enemy 66: Manipulation Gone Wrong
Margot was quite amazed when her mother-in-law and her husband’s mistress stayed longer outside the door than she expected. She was done changing into comfortable clothes and preparing dinner while the two remained, banging on her door. She tried not to but ended up calling the cops on them. Luckily for them, they left before the cops arrived.“I’m back. Did something happen?” Rosaline asked when she walked into the living room to find Margot in a daze.“Oh, you’re here. How’s the first day of the internship?” Margot smiled, wiping the frown off her face. She patted the space next to her, letting Rosaline sit.“It’s fine, I guess. I think I can do it,” Rosaline replied, sounding confident.Margot didn’t think of befriending Rosaline at first. But she was glad they were able to get to know more each other. She was surprised to find out how interesting the young lady was.“By the way, did my mother come here? I’ve seen her texts on my way home. She seemed upset,” Rosaline mumbled, her v
The Good Wife's Enemy 65: Unwanted Visitor
Margot let out a groan as she sat back on the sofa. Her eyes shut as soon as her back rested, her body giving in to the exhaustion. She had a rough day after talking with her father. Since she didn’t want to waste time, she had to do something to save the company.She was drifting to sleep when she heard her phone ringing. Fishing the device from her bag, Margot checked the caller before taking it, smiling.“Attorney,” she greeted, rubbing her forehead, her eyes closed again. “How’s everything going?”“Miss Vanders…” Atty. Powell took a deep breath. “Everything is ready. I’m just waiting for your signal to execute the plan.”Pleased, Margot nodded and hummed. “Did you hear from Dad? He ought to know that there’s nothing to worry about. But knowing him, I bet he wouldn’t be able to relax until we get rid of those people in the company. Anyway, how about the other thing I asked for?”“Oh, that one. I’m still on it. I’ll let you know once the detective I hired sends me the report,” the l
The Good Wife's Enemy 64: Ever-ready
Margot hid her smile as she walked out of the restroom. She felt better after puking everything she ate for breakfast. Although it made her worry as her stomach was now empty, she decided to finish her work as soon as possible and get something to eat.“You’re here,” Vivian said, blocking Margot’s way. “I don’t know what mess you made this time but the Chairman’s secretary is looking for you.”Margot turned behind her and found her father’s secretary. She took a deep breath and shrugged. “I guess I have to wait until lunch to eat something,” she mumbled, turning around to the door.Margot hadn’t seen her father since the last time when she asked for a favor, letting her join Harry on a business trip, which her father ultimately declined. “I wonder how he’s doing,” she said, tapping her fingers on her arm while waiting for the elevator to stop.“Please come inside. The chairman is waiting for you,” her father’s secretary said after walking her to the door and knocking. “Sir, Miss Vande
