SINCERE APOLOGIES FOR THE LATE UPDATE, IM A STUDENT...EXAMS 🥲**Cherry’s POV** I remembered Sharon. She was one of the guests at my wedding with Dylan—when we were still married. Back then, she acted like a harmless admirer, always finding excuses to visit our house. She was head over heels for my husband, constantly seeking his attention, even in my presence. I didn’t take her antics to heart. I thought she was just being kind, given that Dylan was the alpha of our pack. Little did I know, she wasn’t just being kind—she was scheming. After I left, she wasted no time sinking her claws into Dylan. And now, here she was, flaunting her self-proclaimed status as his woman, even though they weren’t married yet. The audacity she displayed, raising her hand to slap my child, was the last straw. “You’re nothing but a mistress, Sharon,” I spat, my voice dripping with venom. “You haven’t earned the right to call yourself his wife. And if you ever lay a finger on my child, I’ll make you r

cherry's POV The evening breeze swept across my face as Maurice held the restaurant door open for me. His gentle smile made me feel oddly comforted, though I couldn’t shake the thoughts swirling in my head. Why did he come to my rescue when Dylan cornered me? How did he even know I was in trouble? Maurice had always been my lawyer and, yes, a good friend, but his sudden intervention felt… personal. I couldn't ignore how protective he had become since I moved to London. Once inside Douglas Restaurant, I was struck by the serene ambiance. The soft glow of golden lights and the soothing notes of a piano in the corner made it feel like a scene from a romantic movie. Maurice led us to a table near the window, pulling out a chair for me. His actions felt thoughtful, deliberate, and it only made my confusion deepen. Was I overthinking things? “Thank you, Maurice,” I murmured, my voice almost drowned by the soft clinking of cutlery and hushed conversations around us. “It’s nothing,” he

Cherry's POV I was having a lovely time with Maurice, the dim lighting of the restaurant complementing his warm smile and easy laughter. Yet, my mood soured the moment my eyes landed on Dylan and Sharon. Of all places, why must they be here? Was this a coincidence, or was Dylan following me? The idea sent a ripple of annoyance down my spine. And why did they have to book a seat so close to ours? My grip on the edge of the table tightened, my knuckles turning white. Every glance in their direction made my heart race with a mix of irritation and unease. When Dylan finally had the audacity to question why I was here with Maurice, I almost choked on my drink. His tone was sharp, almost accusatory, as if he had a right to demand answers. I fought the urge to roll my eyes. “Why I’m here with Maurice is none of your business, Dylan,” I snapped, trying to keep my voice steady even though my chest burned with frustration. “You don’t get to interfere in my personal affairs.” Sharon, e

**Dylan’s POV**I was seething. The news hit me like a thunderclap: Lady C was scheduled to meet with my cousin Gabriel. My cousin and my sworn rival. We shared blood, but that was all. For years, our relationship had been nothing but an ongoing tug-of-war, and now, the stakes were higher than ever. Our family’s company, a multimillion-dollar empire, was at the center of it all. The board had decided that the company’s future owner would be determined by whose interior design proposal was deemed the best. Gabriel had always been a schemer, but hearing that he’d secured a meeting with Lady C—arguably the best interior designer in the industry—was like a slap in the face. I paced my hotel suite, my jaw clenched so tightly it ached. My assistant, Leonard, stood by the door, hesitant to interrupt my brewing storm. “Leonard,” I barked, turning to face him, my voice colder than I intended. “Where’s this meeting happening?” He flinched slightly but handed me a slip of paper with an add

cherry's POV From my office, I leaned back in my chair, my eyes fixed on the multiple screens displaying various angles of my company’s premises. The CCTV feed was my silent guardian, revealing the movements of everyone who dared step into my territory. When Dylan’s sleek black car rolled into the parking lot, my chest tightened in anticipation. Of course, he was here—again. The man didn’t know how to take no for an answer. I watched as he exited the car, his jaw tight and his posture radiating arrogance. My lips curved into a cold smile. This wasn’t a social call; it was an ambush. I reached for my phone and typed a quick message to my secretary, instructing her to deny him access to my office. She had handled worse situations with finesse, and I trusted her to do the same this time. As I saw her intercept Dylan at the door, the disappointment on his face was almost satisfying. However, my satisfaction didn’t last long. Seconds later, Gabriel, his cousin, walked in, his stride conf

I’ve worked hard to build my empire, and tonight, I’m one step closer to securing a future with her, both personally and professionally.I’ve been to so many parties, but this one is different.

**Cherry's POV (Revised and Lengthened)** The audacity of them—how dare they think I’m not Lady C? The moment I stepped into the grand hall, their skeptical gazes pierced me. The whispers grew louder, crawling over my skin like an unwelcome chill. It was almost unbearable. Did they truly believe I lacked the qualifications to stand here, to own this identity? I clenched my fists, nails digging into my palms as I fought to keep my composure. Five long years at one of the top design universities in the United States, countless sleepless nights perfecting my craft, and they had the nerve to reduce me to my past. A housewife. Dylan’s wife. Their small minds couldn’t fathom that I could have evolved beyond the person they once knew. But, of course, I shouldn’t have been surprised. How could I expect them to understand my growth when they hadn’t been there to witness it? I straightened my back, forcing a confident smile that didn’t quite reach my eyes. They would see. They would *all*

**Cherry's POV The party buzzed with opulence, every corner dripping with wealth and elegance, yet all I felt was a roaring inferno of anger bubbling within me. My mind spiraled back to the surveillance footage I’d seen years ago—grainy, yet unmistakable. A brooch gleaming faintly on the culprit’s chest as my parents' lives were cruelly extinguished. That brooch, I noticed tonight, was pinned on the dress of Dylan’s mother, glinting under the chandelier lights like a cruel mockery of justice. Was it a coincidence? My mind raced, but my heart? It seethed. **“Even if she’s changed her clothes a hundred times over the years, that brooch…”** I whispered to myself, my fists curling tightly, nails biting into my palms. **“It’s a clue, and I won’t let it slide.”** I turned my gaze toward her, standing there smugly, her laughter like shards of glass grating on my nerves. The very sight of her filled me with unrelenting rage. She had always hated me, made me feel small and unworthy during

**Cherry's POV** I couldn’t deny it—when Gabriel stepped into the hall, I already knew what was about to happen. My heart thudded in anticipation, but my face remained calm, a perfect mask of composure. Gabriel’s entrance was not just an arrival—it was a declaration. He was going to clear the air about me. He was going to reveal the truth about who I was, whether I was the enigmatic Lady C or just a figment of someone’s delusions. Dylan, however, had other plans. From the moment I stepped into the hall, he’d been attempting to ruin my night. His desperate attempts to discredit me were as pitiful as they were predictable. And all of it because of his fiancée—or rather, his so-called fiancée—Sharon. She was the architect of this chaos, a puppet master pulling Dylan’s strings to her tune. As Sharon’s shrill voice rang out, demanding that I leave the hall, I felt a surge of anger rise within me. Her audacity was unmatched. My lips curled into a sardonic smile as I glanced her way. S

### Dylan’s POVLeonard’s words kept echoing in my head, looping endlessly, each repetition heavier than the last. "She’s someone you know." How could that be? It didn’t make sense. I raked a hand through my hair, pacing the floor of the restaurant, my mind racing. “No, Leonard, that’s impossible,” I said, trying to keep my voice steady. “I don’t know Lady C. I’ve never met her. She’s been in Oxford all her life, and I’ve never set foot there, let alone America. Are you sure your information is accurate?” Leonard’s silence was unnerving, his usual confidence absent. “Sir,” he said finally, his tone careful. “I wouldn’t say it if I wasn’t certain. You’ll understand when you see the picture. I’m sending it now.” As the line disconnected, I stared at my phone, the weight of the conversation pressing down on me like a boulder. Sharon’s voice droned on from across the table, but I couldn’t focus on her words. My fingers hovered over the phone, hesitating as a notification popped up.
