Chapter 31

Sarah’s POV.The cafe was cozy, with soft lighting and the comforting scent of freshly brewed coffee filling the air. Wesley was already seated at a corner table, his usual spot, looking relaxed and content. As I walked in, I felt the tension in my chest grow. I’d been replaying Richard’s message in my mind over and over again, trying to make sense of it, but nothing sat right. Could Wesley really be using me to get back at Richard? It seemed impossible. He had always been so kind, so supportive. But then again, why would Richard make something like that up?Wesley smiled as I approached the table, standing to greet me with a hug. His touch was normally comforting but it felt strangely foreign today. I forced a smile in return, but my mind was racing.“Hey, you,” Wesley said, his voice warm. “You look tired. Is everything okay?”I hesitated for a moment before answering. “Just... a lot on my mind.” I wasn’t ready to let him know what was really bothering me. I needed to be sure,

Chapter 32

Sarah’s POV.The evening was painfully quiet. I sat on the couch, my phone on the table in front of me, but I wasn’t really looking at it. My mind was a mess, replaying every conversation I’d had with Wesley over the past few months. Every piece of advice, every encouraging word— it all just part of some bigger plan. A plan to use me as a pawn in his game against Richard?I didn’t want to believe it. I didn’t want to believe that Wesley had manipulated me like that. But after what I’d heard in the cafe, after the way he talked so casually about business and competition, I couldn’t shake the feeling that Richard had been right all along. Wesley had used me.A knock on the door broke the silence. My heart jumped. I didn’t have to guess who it was. Wesley. Of course, it was Wesley.For a moment, I just sat there, frozen. I didn’t want to see him, didn’t want to hear whatever excuse he had ready. But part of me, the part that still hoped there was some explanation, some misunderstandi

Chapter 33

Sarah’s POV.It had been a week. A whole week of avoiding both Wesley and Richard. My phone buzzed nonstop with missed calls, messages, and voicemails, but I didn’t bother responding. I needed space—away from their drama, away from the constant back and forth between two men who seemed more interested in their rivalry than in me. Stepping out of the cab, I pulled my bag tighter over my shoulder and walked toward my office building. The fresh air of the morning helped clear my head a bit. I was determined to throw myself into work and forget about everything. Forget about how complicated life had become.But of course, as if the universe wasn’t already testing me enough, Richard was standing outside my office.Great. Just perfect. Just what I needed this early morning.I stopped in my tracks, my heart raced for a second. He was leaning against the wall, his hands shoved deep in his pockets, looking like he hadn’t slept well. His hair was slightly messy, but in that annoyingly attr

Chapter 34

I sat on the edge of the bed in my hotel suite, staring blankly at the wall. My mind was racing, my heart felt heavy. Wesley had blown up everything in front of Sarah. The truth, it wasn't even a secret at that time. But now it was and it had come out in the worst possible way.He only married you because of his inheritance.God, I hated Wesley for that. I hated him for saying it out loud, for ruining whatever tiny chance I had left with her. He had no right to do that. But what stung even more was seeing the look on Sarah’s face. The hurt, the betrayal—it was like I’d shattered her all over again.My fists clenched on the bedspread as I replayed the scene in my head, over and over. Every time, it felt like a punch to the gut. How could I have let it get this far? Why didn't I realize I loved her soon?The phone on the nightstand buzzed, pulling me out of my thoughts. I glanced at the screen—Martin.I hesitated for a second, then picked it up. I needed to talk to someone who wouldn

Chapter 35

Sarah’s POV.The afternoon sun warmed my skin as I stood outside on the lawn, staring at nothing in particular. My thoughts kept drifting back to Richard. He had married me for his inheritance. I always wondered why he went through with the marriage when it was clear he didn’t love me. But now, I had my answer.It hurt. It hurt more than I wanted to admit. All those times I hoped he’d see me, really see me, were wasted. I was just a pawn in his game for money.I took a deep breath and shook my head. I couldn’t dwell on this. I needed to focus on what mattered now—my work, my company. If Richard married me for money, that was his problem, not mine.My company was my future, and I wasn’t going to let it be dragged down by Richard or anyone else. I had made sure that my business no longer competed directly with his. I wanted success on my terms, not by playing dirty. I would rise without cheating, without making enemies. That was how I would win.Just as I was mentally preparing mys

Chapter 36

Sarah’s POV.I stood at the large windows of my office, looking out at the city below. The view was impressive, but my thoughts were miles away. It had been a few days since I slammed the door in Richard and Wesley’s faces. A part of me wondered if I had overreacted, but the larger part of me knew that it was time to take control of my life. I was done being pushed around, done letting them dictate my emotions. Richard married me for his inheritance—that truth still stung. But what hurt more was that I spent years hoping he’d fall in love with me.That one day, he’d see me as more than just a means to an end. And Wesley? I didn’t even know where to start with him. He claimed he was helping me with my business, but instead he was just using me to get under Richard’s skin.I sighed, running a hand through my hair. I needed to stop thinking about them. I had more important things to focus on, like my company. After everything that had happened, my business had become my lifeline.I

Chapter 37

Sarah's pov.I stared at the list of investors on my screen, scrolling through the names, the firms, and the potential for expansion. Europe. It was finally happening. Months of strategy meetings, long nights, and that little voice of self-doubt constantly whispering.“Can you really do this?”—all of it was leading to this moment. And for once, the voice had nothing on me. I was doing it. I was expanding my company into Europe, and no one was going to stop me. Not even me.As I adjusted the strap of my watch, I glanced at the time. Another hour until my meeting. I felt the familiar pulse of excitement and nerves—a cocktail I’d come to savor. My phone buzzed, and I glanced down at the screen. Richard. Again.I shook my head, letting out a short, sharp breath through my nose. He just didn’t get it. It’s been weeks since I told him—no, ordered him to leave me alone. I guess the man had always been persistent, but this was just... irritating. I pressed ignore, and his name vanished fr

Chapter 38

Sarah’s pov.Wesley stood in my office, shifting awkwardly from foot to foot. His usually confident, swagger-filled stance was nowhere to be found. Good. About time he felt uncomfortable. He cleared his throat and tried to meet my eyes, but I wasn’t making it easy for him. I wasn’t about to let him weasel his way back in with his charm and that fake sincerity he pulled out for special occasions. “Sarah,” he began, voice low and cautious, like he was testing the waters. “I just... I really need to explain.”I crossed my arms and leaned back in my chair, keeping my face as neutral as possible. “Go on then,” I said, my voice flat. “Explain.”Wesley took a deep breath like he was about to dive into some deep emotional well, but honestly, I wasn’t holding my breath. “I know I’ve messed up,” he started, “but I need you to understand. When I first got involved with you, it was... yeah, it was about getting to Richard.”Right. “But it wasn’t all that. You’re... you’re different, Sarah. I

Chapter 39

Sarah’s pov.Richard was getting desperate. I could feel it in the way he kept showing up. It was like every event, every networking dinner, and every conference somehow had him lurking in the background. Coincidence? Yeah, right. The man was a master of accidentally being wherever I was.I was at this gala for my company’s expansion into Europe—big deal, lots of investors, very important faces. I had on my favorite black dress, the one that made me feel like I owned the whole room, and for a while, I did. Until, of course, Richard appeared like a bad plot twist.I’d see him across the room, talking to someone important, his eyes constantly scanning until they landed on me. Then, there it was: that small smile, like we shared some private joke. Newsflash, Richard: the joke’s over, and it wasn’t funny to begin with.“Sarah!” His voice cut through the mingling hum of the crowd. My heart did that stupid little leap thing it always does when I hear his voice. Annoying. I turned to f

Chapter 40

Sarah’s pov.I sat there, staring at my phone for a good fifteen minutes. Just staring, no calls, no texts, just pure silence. My mind was racing, bouncing between the two people I knew I had to call—Richard and Wesley. This was going to be awkward, painful even, but it was necessary. I had spent days reflecting, mulling over everything. I had forgiven them, sure. That part was done. But now I had to tell them what came next.I picked up the phone and dialed Wesley first. Of course, he answered on the second ring.“Sarah?” His voice had that hopeful edge to it, like maybe I was calling to give him another chance. Spoiler alert: I wasn’t.“Hi, Wesley,” I said, keeping my tone neutral. “I wanted to talk. About everything.”There was a pause on his end, but I could hear him shifting, probably adjusting himself in whatever fancy leather chair he was sitting in. “Yeah, of course. I’ve been waiting to hear from you.”I let out a slow breath, gathering my thoughts. “I’ve had a lot of tim
