Chapter 21- Afraid of her reaction

It was many hours away since Diana came back after submitting their names for the annual business summit. What appeared to be a mistake gave Diana restless thoughts. Was there a way to kick it out of her mind? This must be the biggest mistake of the year for her. While in the back of the car coming back, she rested the back of her head against the seat. The moment she closed her eyes, she heard the exact statement that Mrs Darlington said, “...let her bear that name, it's just a day.” Her breath went up. As she came down and tried to hide her worry, it was spotted by Becky. How wouldn't she find out from her suppressed facial expressions? They were best friends for God sake. When Diana stepped into the house, and she didn't know that Becky had saw her first through the window in the sitting room, Becky asked while standing and walking up to her at the door. “What happened? Has the collection of the names over?” “Oh no…” she adjusted her gown, buying time and thinking of what to say

Chapter 22- Will the coffin be empty?

Manni couldn't contain her joy the moment Mr. Tom left her office. Her response to him had not only made him leave but also ensured that the suitcase of cash stayed behind on her desk. The sight of the crisp, sparkling new notes made her heart race. She smiled as the entire interaction replayed vividly in her mind.“Are you sure you will give me this just to tell you the date of my sister's burial?” she had asked, her voice trembling with disbelief. Something like this wasn't forthcoming.“Absolutely, they are yours,” Mr. Tom replied without hesitation.“The date hasn’t been fixed yet, but I’ll inform you as soon as my parents finalize it,” she had said.She remembered how Mr. Tom extended his hand toward her, his firm grip sealing their agreement.“Good deal. Take my card. Your call will be greatly appreciated,” he had added with a slight smile.When Manni blinked and opened her eyes, those thoughts disappeared, but one thing remained—the suitcase of cash. Alone in her office, she st

chapter 23- I wish she never died.

A Monday Like No Other. It was rare for Alexander to miss a Monday morning at the office. His routine was almost sacred, each movement timed and precise, a testament to his discipline. But today was different. The silence of his grand compound was broken by the sound of his hurried steps as he paced back and forth between the driveway and his huge building.“Boss is still at home!” one of the household staff whispered to a colleague in disbelief.“Maybe the death of his wife is finally getting to him,” another ventured cautiously.“But when she was alive, did he ever really care? Could it be that he loves her more in the grave?” the third added with a sarcastic chuckle, quickly glancing over his shoulder to ensure no one else was listening.“Don’t drag me into your morning gossip,” a fourth interjected, his tone sharp. “Am I laughing? Where is Humphrey now? He left because of how our boss treated his late wife.” Out of nowhere, they saw Alexander walking towards them, making them co

Chapter 24- It was a coincidence

Jude had just rounded the corner of his compound, heading towards his car. With a flick of his wrist, he spun the keys around his finger, wearing a smile that was as captivating as it was seductive. Dressed in a perfectly tailored dark blue suit, he looked every bit charming. The sun was setting, casting a warm, golden glow over the landscape when his phone began to buzz in his pocket.“Adams is calling. What does he want now? I told him I’ll go,” Jude said to himself, already slipping one leg inside the car. He adjusted his position, settling into the driver’s seat and pulling out his phone with a sigh.“Hello, bro,” he answered, keeping his tone smooth, relaxed—polite, even. The bond between the two brothers was strong from the way he answered him.“Jude, did you still see Miss Helen yesterday?” Adams asked without preamble. “I’m hearing that she’s out with her friend at a bar.”Jude paused, irritated for a moment. “We agreed I’d go to her house today,” he reminded his brother.Adam

Chapter 25- A warning at the grave

It was 7:30 a.m., a quiet, somber morning. This was the day Mr. Tom had dreaded ever since he told his boss that Mrs. Alexander would finally be laid to rest. Inside his room, Alexander stood before the mirror, already dressed in a black shirt and trousers. His personal assistant was fastening the buttons of his tailored black suit, his hands trembling slightly as he felt the usual breath of his boss."What time is the burial?" Alexander's voice broke the heavy silence. It wasn’t the usual commanding tone that struck fear or respect into everyone around him. Today, it was fragile, as though the air barely passed through his throat."Eight a.m., sir," the assistant replied quietly.Alexander nodded but didn’t move to leave the room immediately. Instead, he turned toward the bathroom, his steps deliberate and sharp. Tom assumed he had forgotten something and he was right.Inside the bathroom, Alexander’s gaze fell on the portrait of his late wife, Becky, hanging against the large mirror

Chapter 26- Going to give him an offer he can't reject

It has been mourning for Mr Alexander. His heart was literally cut into two seeing his late wife's coffin go down. Each time he closed his eyes, his subconscious mind brought those scenes before his mind. “I am sorry for the death of your wife,” Mr Tom said when they got home with a heavy heart. He has not seen his boss broken down like this before. Alexander didn't say a word at first. He took some steps and because he didn't want any disturbances he turned and said to Tom. “Don’t bother to check on me, I will be fine. I am giving you off, go, go.” He tightened his lips not to break down in the presence of his other staff. No matter how he hid it, it became more obvious. “Our boss has never had such facial expressions,” one of them said after several minutes when Alexander had gone and they heard the way he slammed the door. “What happened to him?” Another confronted Mr Tom as he was about to leave. He paused and looked at the direction of the way leading to his boss' roo

Chapter 27- Don't mention my name

“Sir, it's been two days now that you haven't eaten something. This is not good for your health?” Mr Philip, chef of Mr Alexander's house was at a safe distance and he poured out his mind to his boss. Alexander sat down on his couch in his room close to the window. He paid no attention to him or responded to him by looking in his direction. At Alexander's feet were empty bottles of alcoholic wine. Mr Philip wanted for a few seconds and added, “I have been your cook for so long and I have never seen you in this kind of situation before. Please, eat, I prepared your best meal.” Still, Alexander kept him quiet. His face was down, probably his eyes were open or closed. “The calories that this alcohol gives you are an artificial source of energy. They are not good for your body…” “Do you know that I lost my dear wife? Have you lost someone that you love so dearly before? Have you ever had to bear such a burden before?” Alexander for the first time turned his face and looked at

Chapter 28- What is your name?

Becky stood wrapped in her blue towel, staring blankly at her open wardrobe. Morning light filtered through the curtains—it was the day of the summit. Her skin glistened faintly from the body lotion she'd just applied. The uniform-like red and white gown with its stylish fitted bodice hung before her, ready to be worn. She and Diana had collected their outfits from the organizers the day before.But now, a strange weariness fell on Becky, a heavy exhaustion that seemed to pin her hands as she gripped the wardrobe doors. She stood there, lost in thought, unaware that Diana had slipped into the room and was watching her.“Becky? Are you still brooding over the name I accidentally wrote down?” Diana’s voice broke the silence, startling Becky. She spun around abruptly.“No, no,” Becky stammered, shaking her head.Diana raised an eyebrow, unconvinced. “I don’t believe you. I’ve been standing here for nearly a minute, and you didn’t even notice me.” Her tone turned slightly accusatory. “It

Chapter 29 - Go home, this battle is mine.

“Who is this untrained waitress?” Helen shouted and she subconsciously pulled backwards as she saw the split of the wine slashing towards her. Becky had already filled the glass cup in her hand with wine and was about to give it to the man who requested her name a few seconds ago. One thing was still unclear. Did Becky deliberately throw the cup of wine towards the direction of her ex-husband and Helen who haven't taken notice of her? “Did she know the amount my darling here used to purchase the designer gown?” Her voice drew the attention of those sitting around. She cried without tears frantically and used her hands to dust the wine from it, but the colored wine had already entered. “This gown will pay your bills and wages for a lifetime,” her face still on the gown while Alexander stood there, altering no words and his eyes a bit disgusted by her reaction. She purposely wanted people to see her gown. Truly, the gown worth hundreds of thousands, but she was doing the opposit

Chapter 30 - They need your friend's presence

Diana heard the stretched, haunting sound of the word “No…” echo in her head as she walked toward the hotel building. Meanwhile, Becky sat trapped in the car, her fingers tapping aimlessly against the glass as if searching for an escape. Panic settled in her chest. She couldn't leave—not now. Not with Alexander and Helen nearby. But an unsettling question lingered: Did she still love Alexander?If she didn’t, why was she so desperate to prevent Diana from carrying out her plan? Her mind wavered. Could she live with her friend's idea of revenge? Why was she opposing the easiest way to make the two people she believed had destroyed her life pay for their crimes?Becky fumbled for her phone and dialed Diana’s number with shaking fingers. The phone rang twice before Diana abruptly ended the call. Becky stared at the blank screen in disbelief, only for her worst fears to be confirmed as Diana switched off her phone entirely. The line was dead, and so was their connection—for now.“Aaaaahhhh
