Accusations and Denials

All the Saga company employees were summoned to the conference room to iron things out. The staff arrived at the conference room in just a few minutes.They gathered in the conference room, taking seats in a circle around the large wooden table. Some sat with their backs straight, while others leaned back in their chairs, anticipating what would happen next.Adrian sat at the head of the table, with Freya to his left and his manager on the other.At the other end was Darien, with his manager on one side and his secretary on the other. Darien, on the other hand, was so enraged that he failed to notice that Jeri was a member of the Saga staff. Perhaps it was due to their large number.Since his manager informed him of the Saga company's corporate espionage, Darien was convinced that Freya was either behind everything or one of the people who banded together to steal his company's secret project. Perhaps she was doing so because Darien refused to giv

Love, Greed, and Power

"What am I hearing, son?" Mr. Ethan stood in front of Darien, his face filled with rage.Darien did not respond; instead, he paced up and down in the lounge, a thousand questions racing through his mind."When you introduced us to the woman you wanted to marry, I warned you that she could be a spy or an undercover, but you did not listen. Now you have seen for yourself that she is not who you thought she was, but an enemy," Mr. Ethan stated, balling his fist.“No, father. I do not believe her boss was telling the truth. Jeri can never do anything to harm me or my family members." Darien hesitated.“What are you saying, Darien?”"Father, I am convinced that someone set her up. Jeri is incapable of such an action, believe me.""But do you know that her boss is the same man that your mother is cheating on me with?" “Huh?” Darien was taken aback by his father's remarks. "What are you talking about, Father?""Adrian

Freya's Mysterious Invitation

Jeri sobbed bitterly in Sophia's embrace, and Sophia tried to console her. It was as if her life had ended following the incident on the ground."Your tears will not solve the current problem, Jeri. I will recommend that you approach Darien and explain things to him. I'm certain that he will give you listening ears,” Sophia conversed with Jeri after noticing that there was no way out, except pleading for Darien's mercy."Do you think begging Darien to forgive me will help to restore my reputation? Do you think his parents would forgive me if Darien did? What about the resources and time that the two companies have spent on the new projects?” Jeri flooded Sophia with questions in less than a minute.“Look, Jeri. I am aware that whoever set you up has tarnished your reputation. But the main point is that you should seek Darien's forgiveness, and that is all. Once he has forgiven, I am confident that he will handle the situation in a way that will not harm yo

Freya vs Jeri

Jeri only smiled coldly, without saying anything. Before leaving the room, Jeri kissed her son's cheeks, who was fast asleep on Sophia's bed. She quickly strode out of the room and into her own. Jeri dressed in her best outfit, ready to meet with the secretary of the company where she works. After bidding Jeri farewell, she took a cab to the road. A few minutes later, Jeri was standing in front of an eye-catching modern bungalow house, with two expensive cars in the parking lot. Before Jeri arrived at the address Freya had given her, the gatekeeper was already waiting for her. The gatekeeper escorted Jeri to the lounge. Jeri could not stop admiring the compound's beauty. The flowers, the small garden she spotted from a distance, and every other exterior design. It was a small house, but it was as elegant as a mansion. "Welcome, ma'am," a maid greeted Jeri as she entered the li

Freya's Dark Past

"Perhaps that was me, and maybe it wasn't," Freya said, pretending not to understand what Jeri was saying. "What do you mean?" Jeri expressed her discomfort. “Yes, Jeri. I sent those thugs to attack you!" Freya finally yelled and pointed her index finger at Jeri." Do you know what Darien and I went through before coming here, huh? Do you think he is just a random guy without a crush or girlfriend, and you want him for yourself? "When the spy informed me of your presence, I assumed you were the woman he intended to marry, which was why he had been ignoring me. As a result, I asked them to get you for me, so I could warn you to stay away from my man. Darien's bodyguards were already present, unbeknownst to both the spy and I. "After discovering that I was the one who sent those thugs, he confronted me, but I have never considered leaving him for another woman, even for a second. But through some people

A Tale of Love and Murder

“Well, you can proceed and do whatever seems best for you. As long as I have nothing to do with that, I am fine," Jeri exclaimed, relieved.“You are not safe, Jeri.”“Huh? Why?” Jeri narrowed her gaze at Freya."Oh, you thought Darien had no idea what he was doing when he defended you at the meeting today? Jeri. Darien is aware of the extensive damage that the leak of information from his company to ours will cause him. Nonetheless, he left our company, his anger subdued after learning that you were the culprit. "Believe me, Jeri, if another person was accused of causing the problems between the two companies, Darien would not have left without taking legal action. That is enough to indicate that he is still interested in you, Jeri.”"Just because he is still interested in me does not mean I am going to marry him," Jeri said, rolling her eyes."Should he approach you again for such a thing, tell him this story…""What s

The Unexpected Twist

“What’s your relationship with Darien, Jeri?" Adrian inquired, his arms resting on the office table in between them.Jeri couldn't answer him immediately, rather she pondered what could have triggered her boss to ask such a question. Nonetheless, she recalled Darien protecting her from being slapped by her boss, which might have resulted in him asking such a question.“Sir, may I know why you're asking me such a question?" Jeri asked, maintaining a natural face.“Well," Adrian sighed and rested his back on the executive office chair.” I'm still finding it challenging to believe what Darien told me this morning."“What could that be?" “He called and informed me that I should terminate our project and also get rid of all the files that concern the new projects as he wasn't ready to take the care further. Even though what he said would work in my favor, curiosity made me inquire why he suddenly gave up or decided to settle the current case

Aysel's Sinister Warning

“Aysel, is this you?” Jeri asked, still finding it challenging to believe her eyes. “Yes, it's me, Jeri. Are you surprised?" Aysel responded and took the cap off her head, revealing every inch of her face. Jeri clenched her face furiously, and glaring at Aysel who was standing in front of her, chuckling. “What do you want from me, Aysel? Haven't gotten what you wanted to let me be?" Jeri spoke through gritted teeth, enraged. Aysel sighed and tucked her hands behind her. She began walking round Jeri while speaking. "Well, Jeri, I haven't gotten what I wanted because you're still distracting my man from giving me the attention I need.” "What are you talking about, Aysel?" Jeri boomed. "I have always known that you would stop at nothing until Darien became yours. Unfortunately, so am I. I will stop at nothing as well until I completely win Darien's heart, even though I'm halfway through to the end. Nonetheless, I'm here to warn you, Jeri,” Aysel paused to cause an unusual tension.

A Friend In Need

“It has been a while since your friend visited you. Why hasn't he been coming lately? Or have you guys split up?" Sophia asked her elder, who sat opposite her in the living room, operating his phone. “Um… never mind,” said Henry, his voice barely audible, his gaze buried on his phone screen."What do you mean, Henry? I'm asking after your friend, and you're telling me not to mind? Are you kidding me now?" Sophia roared as though she were related to Henry's friend in any way.“Why are you suddenly concerned about his presence, Sophy? Since we started our friendship, you have never asked after him with this serious expression. I'm starting to suspect you, Sophy." Henry smirked, and narrowed his gaze at her.“Come on," Sophia rolled her eyes." Stop being childish. But it's fine if you would rather not tell me anything about him.”"Well,” Henry shrugged and responded." He met a lady a few weeks ago, and they started chatting. After a few days of having romantic conversations online, the

Facing the Truths

It was dawn and Jeri could be seen in her room getting dressed to visit Darien at home. She planned to meet him at home and tell him everything in the presence of his parents, rather than telling him alone. Unfortunately, the idea was brought by Sophia, aiming to publicly expose Aysel. However, before they could go to bed the previous night, Sophia contacted Freya and told her the secret on the ground. Freya offered to help them so that everything would go smoothly and easy, but Jeri declined. She doesn't trust Freya again like before. After dressing up, Jeri breastfed her child and played with him for a few minutes until he fell asleep. Well, it appears that her infant loves sleeping, which was an advantage to her. Not only that, the child barely cries, only when something is wrong with him or when he's hungry. “Jeri, I know you're still seeing me like a bad person, but believe me, I'm a changed person and my sister can testify about that. No one told me what you're going through,
