The sharp, insistent knocking on her window made Isabelle wince. Her head throbbed from the impact, and her vision was still slightly blurred. She assumed it was the driver who had hit her car, coming to check on her. With a shaky hand, she reached for the window controls and slowly lowered the glass, groaning softly from the pain.But the person standing outside was not some apologetic stranger.It was Laura.Isabelle’s heart lurched. What is she doing here?Laura’s eyes widened in mock shock. “It was just a small hit. Why are you bleeding so much?” she asked, tilting her head as if she was truly puzzled.Then, in the next breath, she burst into laughter. A cold, malicious, bone-chilling laugh.Isabelle’s fingers clenched around the steering wheel as unease settled in her chest.Laura leaned in closer, her voice dropping into a venomous whisper. “This is just a taste of what’s coming, you thieving bitch.”A shiver ran down Isabelle’s spine.“I was hating the wrong person all along,”

Laura paced the length of her living room, unable to sit still. Her fingers curled around her phone as she impatiently checked for messages. Every second that passed without a response sent irritation crawling up her spine. Finally, she gave up waiting and dialed her informant.The call barely rang twice before a lazy voice answered."Haven't you found anything? It's been two fucking days!" Laura snapped, gripping her phone tighter.The informant sighed. "Chill, that girl—Isabelle Rivers—is so hidden. It’s hard to find anything on her."Laura’s patience snapped. "So what? Did you find something or not? I paid you all you asked, and you can’t find a little piece of information? What is she? The president’s hidden daughter?""Calm down, Laura. I did find something. And you’ll like it."Laura stopped pacing. "Go on.""She has a family. I made a lot of findings, and guess what? She was married before. Her case blew up a lot then—soon after, she disappeared, and the man she was married to

Isabelle stepped into the office with a bright smile, greeting her colleagues as she passed their desks. But instead of the usual friendly responses, the atmosphere was strangely cold. Some nodded absentmindedly, while others outright ignored her. A few exchanged glances, whispering under their breath."Look, that's her.""Isn't she part of the PR Horizon team?"The hushed voices pricked at her ears, and she frowned slightly. What’s going on? Dismissing the unease, she continued toward the elevator.As she stepped inside, more employees entered, chatting among themselves. They hadn’t noticed her standing in the corner."I’ve worked here for years, and I’ve never caused trouble," a woman sighed.A man beside her scoffed. "What do you mean?""Haven’t you seen the news? Those new PR employees," she muttered."Ah, yes! I saw it. I couldn't believe it at first, but those pictures... They seem really close. When do you think they got together?""Who knows? But did you read the caption? I’m

Isabelle stepped into the house, her heels clicking softly against the marble floor. The air was thick with tension as Liam stood near the dining table, arms crossed, his sharp gaze fixed on her.“Where have you been?” His voice was calm, but there was an edge to it.Isa hesitated for a moment before answering, “At the company, working late.”Liam sighed, running a hand through his hair. “Isa, you know I asked you to tell me everything that's going on with you. I know you met with Laura.”Her breath hitched. “W-What? How did you know that?”“I followed you, after what happened this morning with the company website and Estella's sudden visit, I knew something was up and I knew whoever was behind it would surely call you.” he admitted, his gaze unwavering. “I saw you at the café, sitting across from Laura. So, I’ll ask another question... What does Laura want with you, why did she call you and what did you discuss?”Isa’s throat felt dry. She opened her mouth to speak, but no words came

The Anderson Corporation’s 5th Anniversary Gala was the most anticipated event of the year, a night where business elites, employees, and notable personalities gathered under one roof to celebrate the company’s successes. The venue—an opulent ballroom with crystal chandeliers, golden drapery, and a grand stage—was filled with murmurs of excitement. Every detail, from the live orchestra to the gourmet cuisine, reflected the prestige of the Anderson Corporation's name.Laura stepped out of her car, her deep-red satin dress hugging her frame perfectly. Her eyes scanned the lavish setting as she adjusted her clutch, confidence radiating from her. But she hadn’t expected to see Estella of all people.Estella, wearing an emerald-green dress with a plunging neckline, turned just in time to see Laura approaching the entrance. Their eyes met, both equally surprised."You?" Estella scoffed, stepping forward. "What are you doing here?""I could ask you the same thing," Laura replied, raising a b
