Chapter 11- Her once sweet home

Becky stepped out of the car, feeling excited as she took in the familiar sight of her parents’ home. She hurried to the boot, ready to grab her bags, but her dad quickly waved her off. "Leave your luggage, love. I’ll carry it in for you," he insisted, his voice warm with affection. "You’ve gone through a lot of stress and you need a proper rest now that you’re home." Becky smiled, touched by his kindness, but she couldn't ignore the weight of her bags. "Dad, they’re really heavy, and you’re not getting any younger..." she teased with a smirk. "Don’t say that," he huffed, pretending to be offended. "If you’re doubting my strength, ask your mum. She can tell you." He turned to his wife with a grin. “Honey, how would you rate my energy?” Her mother chuckled, rolling her eyes. “Must you relate everything to…well, you know…” Becky burst out laughing, and her dad made a dramatic motion, gesturing for her to head inside. "Go on, get yourself settled." "Shall I call the butler to help

Chapter 12- Coming up with a plan

“There’s nothing scarier than my younger sister coming back…” Manni muttered as she paced around the small porch just outside the sitting room.“Calm down, sweetheart. Let’s go inside and sit. Is this about my position?” John asked gently, already sensing her answer. Manni had shown up at his house first before he arrived, yet she hadn’t even used the spare key he had given her to let herself in. She just stood there, visibly tense, too worried to enter. Even more telling, she’d chosen not to go with her mom to welcome her long-lost sister, who had been gone for three years without a single word. It was hard to believe they shared the same parents; their behavior towards each other seemed more like stepsisters, competitive and strained.John’s question brought Manni back to the moment. She folded her arms, looking at him with a mix of frustration and hurt. “Have you forgotten where I found you? Sometimes I wonder if you even care about my feelings…”“I’m sorry, darling.”“Don’t ‘darlin

Chapter 13- What are you doing here?

"What did you come here to do, you loser?" Manni's cold words hit Becky like a slap. She blinked, wondering if she was dreaming. This was her sister, wasn’t it? The same one who had just asked kindly about her in the sitting room, smiling as if she actually cared? Back in the sitting room, their mom had watched them exchange pleasantries, probably thinking the bond between them had held firm, despite all the years apart and how things used to be. But now, in the privacy of Manni’s bedroom, that friendly mask had fallen away, revealing a harshness Becky hadn’t expected. For a moment, she told herself she must have misheard. Maybe Manni was on the phone? But no, Manni’s gaze was fixed on her, eyes narrowed with something like disdain. Becky’s heart skipped a beat. "You said…?" she managed, her voice softer than she intended. She didn’t want to make trouble. She wasn’t here to stir up old fights. But Manni didn’t answer, instead turning to lock the door with a loud, deliberate click, B

Chapter 14- Suspended for now

Alexander felt a soft touch on his shoulder, but his mind was still racing from Humphrey's words. Humphrey had spoken to him in a way no one ever had before, raw, unfiltered, leaving him unsettled. He barely noticed the presence behind him, so lost in thought that the touch seemed almost familiar. “Helen?” He murmured, turning slowly, surprised to see her standing there. The woman before him wore bold, red lipstick, the shade he always admired, and her low-cut dress revealed her intentions as clearly as her gaze, which lingered with a seductive glint. She took a step closer, her posture suggestive as she leaned, adjusting her dress just enough to expose more of her legs. “Stop pretending, Alexander,” she whispered, her voice soft and alluring. “I know you want me, and I know you’re hurt because of what has happened.” Alexander’s heart clenched. He felt the weight of his grief, and yet here she was, assuming she could fill a void that went far deeper than she seemed to understand. Hi

Chapter 15- A good start

“Go to your room now,” Becky’s dad whispered urgently in her ear. His eyes widened with fear, darting around. What’s wrong with Mr. Scholes because of a knock? They stood far from the main door, and unless he yelled, no one outside could hear them. Maybe he was worried about Mr. Alexander’s assistant, who kept pressing him, asking, “When is the burial date of my boss’s late wife?” Perhaps he feared losing respect or simply wanted to keep his daughter safe from any harm being the one thwarting his daughter's plan. Becky gently placed her fingers to her eyes, trying to stop her tears as she remembered Manni's words. She turned to the left, heading toward her room, while her dad went in the opposite direction. He stayed silent, even as the person at the door knocked again. As he walked to the door, he thought, Can’t he speak out? Looking through the peephole, he blinked and was surprised. “Diana?” he whispered aloud. Then he opened the door. “Good evening, Mr. Scholes.” Diana’s small

Chapter 16- Will Becky say the truth?

The next morning, Manni paused outside Becky’s room, catching the sound of her sister giggling. She frowned. "What’s wrong with her? Laughing with herself?" she muttered to herself. There was something about Becky’s cheerfulness that felt like a threat. "Why’s she so cheerful? And why did she call a family meeting this morning of all times? Could she be planning to tell Mum and Dad what I told her? That would be a disaster. What am I going to do?" Anxious and a bit queasy, Manni lingered outside the door, hoping to hear more of Becky’s conversation, but the giggles had stopped. After a moment of hesitation, she knocked. "Yes, who’s there?" Becky called out from inside, her tone neutral but distant. Manni took a deep breath, steadying herself before she answered. "It’s me, Manni. Can I come in?" She glanced around quickly, then took her phone out, started a recording, and slipped it back into the pocket of her loose, hollow white nightgown. "Yes!" Becky’s voice was firm. Manni ste

Chapter 17- What's the burial date?

Adams’ voice rang out sharply, breaking the serene ambiance of the richly furnished room. “You’ve given Alexander so much privilege. He keeps delaying his visit. You told him how much you wanted to see him, yet he makes excuses,” he said with so much frustration as he paced around the elegantly decorated sitting room, adorned with Italian furniture. The polished floor mirrored every movement of his feet. Mr. Luke, seated in his usual massive armchair with golden accents on its arms and legs, tried to interject, his brows furrowing slightly at his son’s outburst. At fifty-nine, he wore an air of authority tempered by a weariness that had deepened with age. “Maybe… maybe Alexander is just busy with some of the,” he began, his voice soft as he tried to defend Alexander. “Busy?” Adams interrupted, practically spitting the word, his gaze darkening. “Busy is just an excuse, and you always fall for it, don’t you, Dad? Why wouldn’t he delay? You appointed him CEO as if it were his birthright

Chapter 18- Dying to set his eyes on his late wife

As soon as Alexander’s car disappeared down the road, Adams left his father’s house, his face breaking into a wide grin. He slid into his own car, shut the door with a firm click, and immediately reached for the bottle of wine resting on the passenger seat. Taking a deep sip, he savored the taste for a moment, feeling the warmth spread through him. His hand moved to the ignition, and with a determined look, he turned the key, the engine roaring to life as he pulled away. Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he spoke aloud, almost to himself. "I haven’t told Jude," he muttered, a spark of excitement lighting up his eyes. Without taking his eyes off the road, Adams reached for his phone and quickly dialed Jude’s number. As soon as his brother picked up, Adams didn’t waste a second. "The deal’s done. We’re going to the summit," he said, his voice filled with barely contained triumph. "You’re coming with me, as one of my directors." There was a moment of stunned silence before Jude’s vo

Chapter 19- Already sent!

"Why would you say that in front of my parents? You almost got me in trouble!" Becky's tone held a mix of laughter and frustration as they stepped out of the taxi in front of the airport. "I had to," Diana replied with a defiant look. "Manni has done enough damage. Just her look is enough to set me off. Why should she act all innocent when she's the one causing all the problems?" So engrossed in their conversation, Becky and Diana didn’t even notice the driver, who had already taken out their luggage and was waiting nearby. With a sigh, he cleared his throat, clearly trying to remind them of his presence. "See what you caused," Diana said playfully, nudging Becky as she opened her bag and handed the driver his fare. "You’re always tiptoeing around the truth. Let your parents know who Manni really is!" "How many times do I have to say." "You should’ve just told them the truth, Becky. It’s for your own good. They need to see she’s the troublemaker in the house," Diana insisted. "I t

Chapter 20 At all costs- The burial date

The knock on the door came at the worst possible moment, a day after Becky had left the house and traveled with her friend, Diana. The air in the Scholes' home still hung heavy with unspoken tension. Especially what Diana wanted Becky to say, but she refused. It wasn't clear to her parents if Manni was the cause or not, since Becky refused to open up. “Please, Manni, can you check who it is?” Mr. Scholes said as he paused on the staircase. “I hope it's not Becky,” she muttered with a secret facial expression. Manni, who was descending with her handbag in hand, nodded as if anything was wrong. Her outfit suggested she was heading out to the office that morning. “Alright, Dad,” she replied, walking toward the door. When she opened it, her breath caught. Standing there was a tall man, dressed in a black suit with dark glasses obscuring his eyes. He exuded an intimidating presence, his hands buried deep in his pockets. For a long moment, neither of them spoke. Finally, Manni broke the
