Chapter 11: Sunshine City

Tears streamed down Valentine Anderson's face as he lay on the hospital bed. When he finally found his voice, he whispered to Benita, "Andrea is gone... she's gone."As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes shut, but the tears continued to flow.Mrs. Anderson and Benita looked at him in silence, feeling helpless and guilty for their part in the turmoil that had engulfed Valentine's marriage.Unaware of Valentine's accident, Andrea was far away from Vegas, having left with Mr. Singers some time ago.As they stepped off Mr. Singers' private plane at Sunshine Airport, Andrea was taken aback by the impressive fleet of cars that had come to greet her. The sheer number of luxury vehicles made her realize the extent of Mr. Singers' wealth, leaving her feeling a mix of awe and unease."Are you regretting marrying me?" Mr. Singers teased with a wide smile.Andrea shook her head in response, remaining silent. Mr. Singers chuckled before reassuring her, "You don't need to feel nervous. Everything that

Chapter 12: Do You Know My Father?

Andrea continued speaking, her voice filled with pain and longing. "When I was just three years old, my father left us, and he never returned. I doubt I would even recognize him if he showed up now. Every evening, my mom would stand by the door, hoping against hope that he would come back, but he never did."The expression on Mr. Singer's face changed dramatically, a mix of guilt, sorrow, and regret washing over him."My mom always believed that my dad would return one day, but he never did, not even when she fell ill. I was in 6th grade at that time, juggling two jobs after school to try to pay her hospital bills..." Andrea's voice broke, tears streaming down her face.Mr. Singer's eyes were red and his fists clenched tightly, mirroring Andrea's pain.Wiping away her tears, Andrea turned away from the window to face Mr. Singer. "During her funeral, he was nowhere to be found. I envied those who had fathers, who could take them to school, spend time with them, and create memories toge

Chapter 13: Fear and Shadow

Mr. Singers turned around with a twisted grin that barely passed for a smile, his piercing gaze landing on a man in his early seventies. Despite his snow-white hair, the lines etched on his face seemed to defy his age, and he moved with a vigour that belied any need for assistance.Trailing behind him were two loyal aides.His name was Gibson. Prior to Mr. Singers' journey to Vegas, he had attempted to secure an alliance through marriage by introducing his most enchanting granddaughter to Mr. Singers. However, his proposal had been summarily rejected."Apologize," Mr. Singers commanded icily, his usually stoic visage now clouded with darkness.Mr. Gibson stared back at Mr. Singers in disbelief. Despite their years of collaboration, this was the first time Mr. Singers had regarded him with such disdain. And all because of a woman — a woman whose appearance he found incredulous."Why should I apologize?" Mr. Gibson retorted through gritted teeth, refusing to bow his head so that Mr. Sin

Chapter 14: Anything For You

Mr. Singers furrowed his eyebrows, caught off guard by the unexpected emergency meeting. It was evident that arrangements had been made without his knowledge."Andrea, come with me," Mr. Singers said, relieved that he wouldn't have to organize a meeting to introduce Andrea as their future chairman.Andrea tensed up, overwhelmed by the prospect of taking over the Singers group. Despite Mr. Singers' intentions, she doubted her ability to face the board of directors and shareholders. "I'm not feeling well. Can we do this another time?" Andrea's voice quivered, her complexion drained with anxiety evident in her fidgeting.Mr. Singers offered a reassuring smile as he gently took her hand. "This is your company now. Your employees and colleagues should be the ones feeling nervous about meeting you. Remember, a boss is not meant to fear their employees. Don't be the first."Mr. Singers's words had a magical effect on her; her stiffened back relaxed, and her tense nerves eased. Taking her han

Chapter 15: My Daughter

The board of directors and shareholders were all on their best behaviour during the introduction, thanks to the effective strategy employed by Mr. Singers.As soon as the introduction concluded, Mr. Singers departed with Andrea, leaving the boardroom behind.Once Mr. Singers and Andrea had left, the expressions of the board of directors and shareholders changed drastically. Their smiles disappeared, replaced by looks of anger as they engaged in intense discussions.Even after they had exited the boardroom, Andrea remained in a daze. Everything was happening too quickly, and she struggled to comprehend how she had suddenly been named as the successor of the Singers Group.Gazing at Mr. Singers, she gathered the courage to ask him the burning question that troubled her: "Why are you being so kind to me? Can you please tell me the truth?"Tears welled up in her eyes as she grappled with the overwhelming realization that someone outside of her family could show her such kindness. Did she

Chapter 16: Showing Off

Mr. Singers found himself unable to end the conversation with Sylvester, his reluctance driven by his concern for Andrea; he was determined not to let anyone disparage her."Even if I were to hand over Agatha to you, victory would still elude you. A defeated adversary remains defeated; don't let me down in the future. At the very least, put up a respectable fight before succumbing to her," Mr. Singers remarked, his arm offering solace on Andrea's back.Though not explicitly stated, the implication was crystal clear.Sylvester's eyes widened in disbelief; the revelation that Mr. Singers was willing to pass his legacy to an unknown like Andrea left him reeling.He had always assumed that Agatha would succeed him, so this unexpected turn of events left him seething with anger. "Singers, you've lost your mind! This is sheer madness," he muttered involuntarily.Mr. Singers didn't linger to converse further; instead, he grasped Andrea's hand and guided her along the red carpet.As they walk

Chapter 17: Tricked

"Mrs. Singers, this way," the waiter said, gesturing towards the restroom area. Andrea didn't question Anne's words due to her status.Andrea opened and closed her mouth, unable to utter a word. She felt too embarrassed to face Anne and her friends. Rising to her feet, she followed the waiter with her head bowed in shame.Meanwhile, Anne and her friends chuckled in amusement. "Anne, she went to the toilet. How embarrassing," one of them remarked.Another friend asked Anne, "What are you going to do to her?"Anne's smile appeared innocent, but a fierce glint flashed in her eyes as she replied, "What do you mean? She just went to use the toilet."Anne's friends exchanged knowing glances and smiled.Following the waiter to the restroom area, Andrea stopped at the doorway leading to the female restroom. The waiter said, "Mrs. Singers, this way.""Thank you," Andrea responded in a nearly whispered voice before stepping inside.After the waiter departed, Andrea decided not to return immedia

Chapter 18: Overbearing Action

Mr. Singers remained impassive, his gaze not even flickering towards Mr. Arnold as he delivered his response. "When it concerns Andrea, no action is too extreme. I will not hesitate to offend anyone in my search of her," he stated calmly.The guests erupted in a chorus of gasps and murmurs, with Mr. Arnold visibly teetering on the brink of losing his composure in the face of Mr. Singers' words.Mr. Singers' blatant disregard for Mr. Arnold was palpable, a level of disdain typically reserved for private conversations rather than public displays like this one.Halting the entire event to embark on a search for a woman, described in unflattering terms as "fat and ugly," was unprecedented. Despite the fire of anger blazing in Mr. Arnold's eyes, he found himself unable to voice his frustration, a fact that only served to worsen his already distressed appearance."I will not rest until those responsible for Andrea's disappearance are held accountable," Mr. Singers declared icily, his words

Chapter 19: Do You Think You Are Beautiful?

"Mr. Singers, I may have erred in my treatment of her, but why does she deserve you over us? She lacked the confidence to be your wife, and frankly, she isn't attractive..." Anne hesitated, fearing Mr. Singers' reaction, but she wanted to express more.Mr. Singers' eyes narrowed, his expression stern. He was surprised that a young girl could be so bold to speak so frankly to him."Do you believe you are more attractive than her?" Mr. Singers questioned with a serious demeanor."Yes," Anne replied confidently. Having seen Andrea, she held the belief that Andrea was unattractive and overweight."Do all the ladies here share your opinion that you are more attractive than her?" Mr. Singers inquired, his gaze shifting to the other women present.They all nodded in agreement, silently confirming Anne's assertion."Tony," Mr. Singers called out, not needing to give further instructions as Tony understood what was required.The LED screen illuminated with a series of images showcasing Andrea'

Chapter 20: What Will Make You Leave Him?

After discarding his gloves, Mr. Singers nonchalantly tossed the gun to one of his subordinates before briskly turning to depart."Mr. Singers, he's a member of the watchdog gang," Tony promptly informed."Eliminate the gang from Sunshine City," Mr. Singers ordered before slipping into his car.Driving away from the warehouse, he made a pit stop at a flower shop on the bustling street, parking his car nearby and stepping inside."What kind of flowers are you looking for?" the florist inquired as Mr. Singers approached the counter.Inexperienced in matters of flowers, Mr. Singers had never bought any before, not even for his deceased wife whom he couldn't afford to then."She's in the hospital. What flowers are best for wishing someone a speedy recovery?" Mr. Singers asked.Observing Mr. Singers closely, the florist shook his head, sensing a lack of effort in Mr. Singers' marital relationship."Sir, it's important to buy her flowers regularly to make her feel happy and maintain her wel
