The beginning of the end!

At one of Jeri's mansions…"I am aware that you have only heard about supreme cards; you have never even laid eyes on one, let alone handled one. I should be thanked for letting you touch one today, Mr. Adrian.” Jeri winked and held out her hand to retrieve the card. "Now, hand it back to me before you assume that it is yours.”Taking her card away from Adrian's grip, she chuckled folded her arms above her chest, sitting straight on the seat.“What else do you have to say?” she enunciated, anticipating his response.Unfortunately, Adrian played mute and frozen in place. He appeared like he had been punched in the gut, his breath knocked out of him by the sheer impossibility of what he saw.“Tell me, Jeri?” He finally managed to speak." How do you manage to get this card?”“I would rather not want to remind you that I'm a successful businesswoman. Because what you have seen is enough to tell you that.” she smirked.“I see,” Adrian nodded, and finally took his seat. He placed his hands

The Price Of Betrayal: Mr. Hemsworth's Downfall

“Believe me, I didn't see this. She was a nobody, and now she's back as one of the richest businesswomen in the country. At this point, I will advise you to give up on this fight. Because once she finds out the truth, then there's nothing we can do again to stop her. At least, you have tried your best, but it didn't work out.” Anna, the lady who assisted Freya in exposing jaw-dropping secrets in Darien's wedding, advised Freya. At last, Freya, who had been pacing up and down the lounge, stopped. She turned around and scowled at Anna, who quickly averted her gaze. She walked up to where Anna was sitting, leaned her face closer to Anna and yelled. “ Do I look like I'm afraid of her because of her money, huh?” “Forgive me, ma'am,” Anna apologized and finally lifted her head to look at Freya.“ We both know that you want to marry Darien because of his background. You have fought for many years now, yet he would rather not make you his wife. “Your parents who are also wealthy now

You know what I mean.” Mrs. Lucinda, who sat on the bed beside her daughter, yelled, her tone serious.Aysel, who was holding her Mom's hands earlier, finally let go of her mother's hands, maintaining her back against her mother's gaze.“I’m sorry, Mom, I can't do that.

A Battle For Justice

“You don't get it, father,” said Darien to his father as they sat in the dining room.“What is it that I don't get, Darien? Do you want to make the same mistake you made when she was here? Why are you too blind to see that Jeri, or whatever her name is, is an enemy sent to destroy this family?” Mr. Ethan roared, punching the dining table.“No, father. Jeri is only doing this because she encountered pain after you both kicked against our relationship. Look, father, I don't care if she is back for revenge or whatever. All I know is that I still love her, and I want her to be my wife.” Darien let out, his brows drawn together.“Oh really?” Mr. Ethan snorted.“Yes.”“Well, get ready to leave my house. You either choose me or her because I can't sit back and watch you bring a devil into my house. Haven't you learned your lessons?

Freya's Fear

"I wish I could help you, Freya, but I can't. I tried my best to persuade her that you are not her enemy, but…” Sophia sighed, her gaze on Freya who was sitting beside her. “ She's not ready to listen to me. I don't know what to tell her again.”“Aren't you her best friend? She should listen to what you tell her,” Freya’s eyes were filled with sorrow as she spoke."Look, Sophia, I noticed that Jeri returned for nothing but vengeance. And you know what? I am one of those she returned to exact her revenge on. "All I want her to know is that I fought for her, even in her absence. That should be enough reason for her to treat me as a friend rather than an enemy. You should see how she embarrassed me in front of my coworkers when she visited my workplace.""I get your point, Freya. What I am trying to say is that you should meet her and explain things to her so she has no reason to treat you the way she did," Sophia said, her expression clouded with sadness.Just as Freya was about to say

A Request From An Unexpected Ally

“Good morning, my dear business partners,” she started." I understand that some of you may see me as a competitor, but I urge you to consider the bigger picture. Just because my company is developing similar products as some companies in this city doesn't mean we're stealing your ideas." As soon as her words rang in their ears, the hall went into a chaotic murmuring, causing Jeri to pause. Her gaze darted from one person to another, as she sensed how determined almost every one was to bring down her business. Although it was a great challenge for her to face everyone alone, she knew what she was targeting. So, she wasn't ready to back down despite the pressure from her fellow CEOs. Amidst the murmuring, Jeri took a deep breath, plastered a light smile on her face and continued, "Every company has its unique audience and market niche. Our target audience may overlap with yours, but our approach and values are distinct. We're not trying to replace you; we're offering an alternative

A Favor For A Secret

“Jeri,” Mr. Elias started."Although I am here to assist you, I also require a favor in return. But before I assist you in your mission, I would be overjoyed if you would fulfill the task I have for you. “Uh?” Jeri's mouth was agape upon hearing his words. “ Look, sir. I am paying attention to you because I have a deep respect for elders. However, I can tell you are here to use me as a pawn to get something I do not know about. With due respect, sir, I am not interested in this conversation. Excuse me, please..."Jeri rolled her eyes and turned to leave, but she paused as the man's words echoed in her ears."You will find me when the time is appropriate, Jeri, I promise you. By then, you will be kicking yourself for not working with me earlier." Those were Mr. Elias' words that brought Jeri to a stop. She chuckled, shook her head, and turned back to face Mr. Elias."What led you to believe that I will require your assistance in the future?" She shot back. “I am a self-sufficient sin

They were all expecting one of Freya's house servants to come open the gate for them.Unfortunately, the guard knock on the door was met with a hesitant pause before it creaked open.
