Chapter 131

Eva stood before the office manager at Wadsleys Jewels, her arms crossed across her chest. There was no speck of hesitation within her voice. She had made up her mind; she was not going to share space with Ava any longer. The office manager was an older man, with greying hair and adjusted glasses. "Are you sure, Miss Wadsley? I thought you and Ava were getting on all right with the shared office? And is your father aware of this?” Eva snorted, not quite hiding her irritation. "It's not about working well together. I want my office near the design team. That makes sense for my role. And frankly." she glanced toward Ava, who stood a few feet away, pretending to scroll through her phone, "I'd rather have my space. And dad wouldn't mind.” Ava finally looked up, meeting Eva’s gaze with an expression that was unreadable. Then, she gave a small shrug. "I don’t mind either." The manager seemed to hesitate, looking between them. But when Ava didn’t object, he nodded. "I’ll inform the chair

Chapter 132

"You're not thinking, Eva. We have to tell him."Ryan's voice cut sharp with an underlined urgency as he leaned forward, elbows resting on his knees while staring hard into Eva, his eyes ablaze with frustration; his hands were in fists and the knuckles white.Eva sat opposite him, her legs crossed, clasped herself tight in what felt and looked like protection against the heavy onslaught of words that he was uttering. Outside, there was a soft whistle of wind this evening that rustled leaves around to dance to the ground but was a lot noisier against the silence that stood between the two.She let out a small humorless laugh and shook her head. "You don't get it, do you?"Ryan's jaw flexed. "What I don't get is why you'd just throw it all away without one fight, Eva. You're carrying his child. He has a right to know."Eva turned to him now, her face unreadable. "And what do you think will happen if I tell him? He'll become so enlightened and realize he's in love with me? He'll just le

Chapter 133

It wasn't late into the night, but Victor Darlington sat in his darkened study as if he had conquered the day. His fingers tapped rhythmically against the varnished mahogany desk, the echo soft in the room. A glass of scotch was next to him, the amber liquid catching the oncoming glow of the small desk lamp.Richard Wadsley and Henry Darlington had been the best of companions for decades. Their empires blossomed when the partnership did-thrived on a bond rooted in trust and loyalty. But then again, loyalty was just an illusion-so easily shredded to pieces when handled with just the right type of manipulation.Victor just had it.A month ago, he had triggered a business disaster that would wedge the two men apart forever: several misplaced emails, a few confidential documents leaked at precisely the right moment, and well-placed rumors. Now, their friendship lay in tatters.Richard felt Henry pulled out of a huge deal at the last minute, having stabbed him in the back, while Henry was

Chapter 134

"Are you sure Shawn's going to love this?" Ava asked, a small, black-velvet case nestled within her palm.Samantha smiled bright at her, sham-assuring grin disguising all that bubbled therein. "He will. He would just love this. Boys really love TLCs. Just make sure he places it on his office desk. It would remind him of you even at work.Ava didn't take her eyes off the box, one finger tracing softly over the silky fabric. It was small, lovely, and understated. "I just… I wouldn't want him to think I'm doing too much, you know? Things had been going well with them lately. He had been… softer and more attentive.” Samantha nodded, her eyes not leaving Ava's face. "Exactly. And you gotta keep the ball rolling. This gift? It is not just a present. It is a symbol. Every time he sees it, he'll be thinking of you."Ava smiled dreamily. "That sounds… nice.”She leaned in closer, her voice dropping to a whisper, as if she were letting her in on some great confidence. "Believe me, Ava, it wil

Chapter 135

Norman sat back in his chair, his fingers drumming out a beat on the surface of his desk. A pair of incisive eyes, looking fixedly interested in what was across the screen-presented figure now sitting at an office desk, Shawn Darlington flipping documents, oblivious that some invisible pair of eyes that followed his each and every movement.He had but to sit and listen-the rustling of papers, the periodic sigh, the clink of a glass as Shawn reached for whiskey. He heard every conversation, every call, every business decision that was made.And Shawn suspected nothing.His father, Victor Darlington stood beside him, arms crossed, eyes narrowed in thought. "How much have you gathered so far?”Norman smiled, tapping his temple. "Enough to bury him when the time is right. Every deal, every strategy, every weakness is ours now."Victor let out a low husky laugh. "Excellent. Already, we turned Richard Wadsley and Henry Darlington against each other. That was step one. Step two: when we do

Chapter 136

"You’re actually going through with this?"Ryan’s voice rang with disbelief as he leaned against the kitchen counter, arms crossed over his chest. His dark eyes were locked onto Eva, searching for any hesitation, any sign that she wasn’t serious about leaving.Eva, however, remained resolute, fingers tightening around her phone as she scrolled through real estate listings. She barely looked up when she responded."I already told you, Ryan. There's nothing left here for me."Ryan snorted, shaking his head. "Nothing left? What about your family? Your position at Wadsleys Jewels? And, oh, I don't know-the fact that you're carrying Shawn's child?"Eva's grasp on her phone faltered for a moment, but she covered it with a sigh, laying the device on the coffee table. She finally looked at him, her gaze like steel."That's exactly why I have to go."Ryan took an angry, impatient breath. "You can't just take off, Eva. Do you even hear yourself? You're pregnant, for God's sake. You think rippin

"You're not going to believe what I just found out."Sam slipped into the chair opposite Ava in the seclusion of the corner of the café and said, in her low, piercing voice, whipping off her sunglasses. Her eyes blazed bright; inside their sheen, excitement twisted.Ava had not lifted her gaze from the cappuccino, in front of her, and gently turning the liquid round in the top of the coffee in a giddying sweep of her eyes.She breathed deep. "This had better be good, Samantha. You sounded so urgent, and i had to leave everything behind and rush here.."Samantha smirks and fiddles with her coat for a second before leaning in to speak. She speaks just loud enough to be above a whisper. “It's about Eva.” Ava's hand freezes mid-stir. Her heart is kicking against her ribs. "What about her?"Samantha watched Ava's reaction with her head cocked to one side, like a cat in a trap waiting for the mouse. "I saw her today," she said, her voice drawing out the sentence for maximum effect. "At a h

Chapter 138

"May we talk?"Ava stood at the door of Eva's office, clutching the door handle so firmly that her knuckles had whitened. She had spent all morning rehearsing what she would say, her mind playing different scenarios. Now that she actually was here, face to face with her twin sister, words felt heavier in her mouth.Eva didn't even acknowledge her existence. She sat at her desk, fingers flying across the keyboard of her laptop in that known pattern, like Ava wasn't even there."I'm busy."Ava had swallowed and plastered a bright smile on her face as she stepped into the room. "Please, Eva, just give me a few minutes. I won't take much of your time."Eva let out a soft huff and didn't look up. "What is it that you want, Ava?"For half a second, Ava didn't say another word, walking closer on heels clicking against the tile floor. That room was almost choking with what had been unsaid and emotion left hanging in the balance."I want to make things right between us," Ava said softer now, a

Chapter 139

“What the hell is this?" Richard Wadsley muttered under his breath for the third time and started scrutinizing the papers on his desk. The figures would just not make sense. Somewhere, it was missing something huge.He leaned back in his chair, rubbing his temples. It wasn't any ordinary miscalculation. There was a screw-up with the money-a hole somewhere-and he couldn't find it. A cold creeping in his stomach started to churn as his gut felt told him this wasn't an accident. Somebody was playing a game with him, and he didn't like that one bit."Richard?”His wife, Eleanor, came into the study, furrowing her brow. She had watched him for roughly an hour as, with every passing second, his face darkened, his fingers drumming anxious rhythms on the table."What's wrong?" she asked as she drew closer.He snorted loudly. "I just don't know yet. Something from these reports simply isn't quite adding up properly."Eleanor laid a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "Perhaps it's just some tiny

Chapter 140

“Is this what you call taking responsibility?”Richard Wadsley's voice shook the walls of his office. His fist hit forcefully on the mahogany desk, displacing a stack of financial statements across the polished surface. With her nails gnawing into her skin, Ava was frozen in front of him, her hands clenched behind her. She knew she was in trouble by the way he spoke to her on the phone, but not this. She was confused didn't understand how the number and financial statement were messed up, and she had no excuses or explanation for all the fallout. Her father's eye pierced her. "Do you even grasp the mess we are in? " Ava gulped down the ball building in her tummy. "Daddy, I---" With a sharp hand movement, Richard cut her down with a firm tone. “No, you listen. You pleaded for this charge. You told me you wanted to take full responsibility, and now, check this out! Shoving a file toward her, the red-circled numbers stood out like lacerations. The damages were enormous. Their Europe
