She remembered an almost similar scene when she was younger. Only that time, she refused to admit the sign.
“Have you said anything to Henry?”
Chantal shook her head. “No. I was planning to go to the company and help him out since he’s been busy dealing with it.”
Vanessa leaned her head back.
A few days ago, she talked with the elders in the office. Vergil told them about the tax that they have failed to pay while Osmond was the one managing it.
Vergil also showed records that didn’t match up. No matter how the family has spent their money like water, it shouldn’t have depleted as much. To solve this, Vergil has utilized the income from other properties to pay for the tax. The income from the company was still sufficient for their lifestyle. But now, the stocks have declined, their models are leaving, their clients are pulling out.
Clank! Clank!The sound of the baton hitting the bars resounded, catching the attention of the men held behind it.“Ozzy, you have a visitor..” The warden sneered.Sitting on his uncomfortable bed, he looked up when he heard the nickname they had made for him.Since being sent to prison, Osmond hasn’t had a worry-free minute. Especially on that first day he came. He was beaten up right away. Since then, he was made to do chores or errands for others. If he would so much as talk back, he would get a harsh beating, but not enough to send him to a hospital where he could get a hospital arrest instead.Ever since he was sentenced to prison, his family hasn’t visited him. They didn’t want to be seen getting even a foot away from jail. Unexpectedly, the only one who has ever visited him was his son-in-law, Henry.Thanks to Henry, he wa
“Did..did he sign over other properties?” Vergil trembled in shock.Henry shook his head. “He didn’t tell me if he did it to other properties other than that.”“I see..” Vergil sighed.After a while, he looked towards Chantal and Henry. Now that he found out that Henry was not the culprit in giving away the property, he was not angry at him anymore.“You young people need to talk about your issue calmly. In a few weeks, your baby will be born.” He told them.Henry’s eyes dimmed. He didn’t want to be convinced to stay together with Chantal.“Grandpa. I could never forgive him for cheating on me and endangering my child’s health.” Chantal stated, her head held high.Vergil shook his head. ‘..you have too much pride. How will you raise your child withou
It has been more than 24 hours since the banquet where Diana made her debut to the social circle as part of Griffin clan and also Lucas Ingram’s fiancee.The netizens and televiewers who have watched the press conference have not stopped talking about it. They have looked into Diana’s background prior to being found by the Griffin clan. Video clips from the court trial involving Bryan Cook and Clara Holt resurfaced.“No wonder she was able to get the famous lawyer Atty. Pierpont.”“It’s either because of her fiancee or the Griffin clan that she’s able to get the lawyer to take her case.”“Nahhh.. I’ve heard that Atty. Pierpont has only been taking care of the Lovell clan’s affairs only.. Particularly, Lucas Ingram’s. With them as clients, he wouldn’t have to bother taking other people’s cases just for money. Just by b
After posting her message, Carly James looked on the screen with excitement. After a few seconds, a direct message popped up on the screen. “Hi there! Are you really a fan of Big Sis Diana?” the message read. “Yes! Are you also a fan?” She excitedly replied. “Awesome! I’ll be your partner then! Hehehe.. I’ve been her fan since I was 3 years old..” “You’re kidding… since 3 years old?!” “Yes! She’s absolutely the best!” “Well then, I’d be honored to be partners with you. My name is Carly James.” “Same! I’m Wendy Reeves.. A pleasure to meet you..” “Hohoho.. The pleasure is all mine!” And with that, the Goddess Diana’s fan club was established. In just one night, the fan club already has 100 members and is still counting. Ironically, ther
She has been so busy with her Medical degree lately that she hasn’t thought about the Winchesters since the trial. She has even forgotten that time when Heather decided to move because of Henry’s disturbances in their old apartment.Now, to hear that Chantal has given birth and that Henry’s affairs were discovered, was mildly surprising to her. However, since it also concerns the life of an innocent infant, she was worried that he would suffer the consequences instead.“Also, one of their properties has been taken over by someone else. Osmond had a deal with this person years ago. The old patriarch just found out about it too.” Lucas continued to update her.“Oh? Who took over?” Diana was not really interested, but asked anyway.“Mortimer Hutchison. Osmond asked for his help in causing mom’s accident which led you to be born early.”&
“Oh, right. There’s that. hahaha...Anyway, who cares? Diana’s concerns before don't exist now. She already has her degree. She’s already a career woman. She could be with whoever she wants and even can start her own family. Unfortunately, Henry couldn’t wait for her and even chose to fuck with the ex-twin sister instead.”“Tuntununtuntun.. And now, he also cheated on the ex-twin sister while she’s pregnant with their kid..”“His D should be cut.”“He’s a manwhore.”“Craziest story: He believed/still believes that Diana is in love with him and is only with Lucas to catch his attention. Even Chantal and their friends believed that. How do I know this? I was part of the catering crew during Chantal’s birthday bash early this year.”“Puhahahaha.. What is this? Is there really s
At Henhall University, classes have officially started. The students were more or less acquainted with each other already and they could already locate their classrooms without difficulty.Since the banquet, Diana’s classmates would look her way from time to time, trying to find out if the Diana in their classroom and the Diana in the press conference were the same person.It was when someone from their class bravely approached Diana to ask for clarification. When Diana nodded in response, they felt their heads explode.They really wanted to surround her and befriend her but were also afraid to be identified as suck ups.Before this news, they only regarded Diana as their smart and beautiful classmate. Now that they know of her extraordinary background, they were really excited to be in the same class.In the end, the majority of them would be more polite with her and also
Days have passed and they were formed into groups for their case studies. The members of every group were chosen through picking a number in a box.Coincidentally, Diana was in the same group as Halynn and four other classmates. Although the four didn’t have special feelings toward Diana, they were afraid of Halynn as she had a bully aura compared to Diana.Still, they could only try to stay neutral. They were still unaware of Halynn’s hatred for Diana. But since both were from wealthy families, they assume that the two should be from the same circle and should be friends.They were just happy to have Diana’s intellect and Halynn’s ability to splurge, making it easier to conduct their case study.“Alright then, let’s introduce ourselves first.. I’m Lyra Thomson.”“Remi Williamson..”“Hey there.
