CHAPTER 61
After Divorce, My Wife Becomes The Boss Lady /Mysterrion
DavinaI went back to my desk, forcing my frustration down like a bitter pill.The audacity of those men.My fingers twitched with the urge to break something—preferably their faces—but I curled them into fists beneath my desk, pressing my nails into my palms.Lunchtime was approaching.I pulled out my phone and sent a text."Hey. It’s lunch soon."A few seconds later, my screen lit up with a reply—a photo. The PI lounged in the backseat of his car, a burger in one hand, the office building visible through the window.Perfect.Enjoy your last day as an idiot, King.I made a mental note: take Mr. Smith down with him.What better way to prove myself to my father than to eliminate two corrupt directors at once?And maybe a few others while I was at it. My gaze flicked to Christine. She wasn’t innocent either.The soft click of an opening door made me shift my focus.King stepped out of his office, Mr. Smith beside him. Their voices—low and smug—drifted across the room as they strolled to

DavinaI knocked twice before stepping inside.The scent of cigarettes clung to the air—sharp, lingering. As always.“You called, sir?” I kept my voice even, my posture firm.King met my gaze, a slow smirk playing on his lips. “Have a seat, darling.”“I prefer standing, sir.”His expression didn’t change, but something in his gaze darkened. “I insist.” This time, there was no room for negotiation.I could have refused. Could have stood my ground.But I sat.It wasn’t time to blow my cover yet. I’d obey—for now.“Good girl” A chill crept up my spine. “I won't waste your time. I'm sure you already know how things work around here”My stomach churned. “8pm. Nandas hotel. Be there if you don't want to lose your job” My stomach churned again. He has finally made his move on me. He waved his hand signifying I should leave. I stood up and left. It was time. The moment I got to my desk, I picked up my phone to text the PI but he beat me to it. “We need to talk” his message displayed o

DavinaI reached home much earlier than usual, the drive back smooth, almost too smooth, as if the universe was nudging me toward something inevitable. The grand iron gates of the Charez estate parted soundlessly at my arrival, and I pulled into the driveway, cutting the engine with a soft exhale.Stepping out, I was greeted by the familiar scent of night-blooming jasmine, the fragrance mingling with the faint hint of rain still lingering in the air. The house loomed before me, its warm golden lights spilling through the towering windows, making the space feel welcoming yet oddly distant—much like my place within it.As I walked in, the quietness struck me first. The usual hum of conversation or the occasional clatter of activity was missing. The heels of my shoes clicked against the marble floor, each step feeling heavier than necessary. A maid, petite and composed, emerged from the hallway and dipped her head slightly in greeting."Miss, welcome back. Your parents are in a dinner me

Davina The warmth of my mother’s embrace still lingered as I made my way downstairs, my steps lighter than they had been in days. Something had shifted—something I couldn't quite name yet. A quiet sense of belonging, perhaps. Or maybe just the comfort of knowing that for once, I hadn’t been the only one reaching across the distance.I trailed my fingers along the polished mahogany banister, the coolness grounding me as I descended. The house was quieter now, save for the distant ticking of a grandfather clock and the faint hum of the evening breeze slipping through the corridors.As I approached my father’s study, the air changed. The hallway, once warmed by the golden glow of sconces, seemed to narrow, pressing in with a weight I had long grown accustomed to. The heavy double doors loomed before me, their carved patterns intricate, precise—much like the man waiting on the other side.I inhaled, steadying myself.A part of me still carried the warmth of my mother’s words, the scent o

DavinaThe weekend passed in a blur of quiet moments and restless anticipation.With Mom and Dad away on a trip and Alex absent- to my relief, the house had been eerily silent. I welcomed the solitude, using it to sharpen my thoughts, to plan every step of what was to come.Monday arrived with an unshakable energy buzzing beneath my skin. Today was the day. Today, Lawrence King would finally get what was coming to him.I arrived at the office before dawn, stepping into the stillness of the empty building. The fluorescent lights overhead flickered to life, humming softly as I made my way to my desk. The scent of freshly brewed coffee from the break room lingered in the air, mingling with the crispness of the morning.I sat, fingers drumming against the polished wood, my mind whirring as I waited. The anticipation curled around me, coiling tighter with every passing minute.Slowly, the office began to stir. Employees trickled in, their footsteps echoing in the quiet space, their murmure

DavinaThe ride home was quiet but pleasant. My eyes followed the trail of the city as I breathed the fresh clean air. My first task was done-with a bang. Father sat beside, his eyes on his phone,but the atmosphere was less tense that other times I've been around him. I folded my hand neatly in my palms as my memory replayed what just happened. I took care of King and got rid of Christine and Smith.Father exhaled, his voice breaking the silence. “You handled today well.”The words were simple, but coming from him, they carried weight.I turned my head slightly, studying his profile. His face was unreadable but softer. “Thanks Father ” I said, dropping my gaze to my hands. “I had to do it” He hummed in approval. “But now, things will get even more serious and complicated. People now know you're a Charez and your first line of action was getting rid of a director that has seethed his roots deep in the company. Some people will like you, most won't” He added slowly. The car stoppe

DavinaA knock pulled from the depth of sleep. Still dazed, I refused to open my eyes but the knock came again. “Who is it?” I screamed without getting up. “Martha ma'am”It was a maid. “What do you want?” I called out again. “It's past dinner time ma'am and the sir and madam have been waiting” I sprang up from the bed and checked the clock for the time. It really was past dinner time. “Tell them I'll be there” The footsteps retreated and I forced myself to get up from the bed. Still sleepy, I dragged my feets across the room and caught my reflection in the mirror. God I look disheveled. I decided to take a quick shower to keep clean and wash the remaining sleep from my eyes. I sharply took a shower and entered the walk-in closet to pick out an outfit. Settling for a loose chiffon gown, I wore it immediately. As I buttoned up, my eyes wandered around the room. I met my own gaze in the floor to ceiling mirror. I paused.I look different than I had been months ago. My eyes c

Davina The table was filled with laughter and the air was celebratory.A celebration. Of me.The thought made something tighten in my chest. I had spent so long fighting, proving, maneuvering in shadows where warmth did not exist. I was being acknowledged as a daughter, as a family not as a pawn. I chewed slowly thinking of how to bring up the discussion. How to tell them the life as I lived as Davina Stewart. How I was a plaything for the people I called family, how I was discarded by my husband when he got tired of me. I wished to rid myself of the burden inmy chest. But looking at them now—at my mother feeding my father a bite of his food, at the way his usually stern face softened with amusement—I faltered.I had never seen my father laugh before.The sound was warm to the ears. I watched my mother teased, and watched respond with a smile. Since I came I have never seen them like this. It felt as if the wound they carried was healing up. Perhaps I completed them. They must ha

DavinaI woke up very early the next morning. It was the D-day. Today, I become Stasha Charez fully. No more hidden identities, just who I actually am. I took my bath and went into the walk-in closet.I went to the row of clothes mom had gotten for me when I first arrived, all seemed off then but now I understand why she got me corporate outfits. She was preparing for the day I finally stepped into my position as the heir to the Charez empire. I blindly picked a suit but returned it immediately. I can't wear fitted outfits, my baby bump will be noticed. After much deliberation, I settled for a pantsuit and a blazer to match. Using light make-up, I hid my stressed face behind the look of a polished lady boss. My mind conflicted on what to expect. Will they be soft on me or throw challenges my way or be outrightly mean. Well I had no way of knowing unless I got there. Taking a deep breath, I stepped out of my room. It was time to be Stasha. Break went by smoothly, not as w

DavinaI entered the meeting room, Tim trailing behind me. I sat at the head of the table while Tim laid the documents in front of me. “Shall we?” Silence. Nobody said anything, they all stared at me blankly. “Hello?? Is this how you guys operate here? I need people working under me to be active and agile. Now shall we?” There was a shift in atmosphere as they all shuffled in their seats. Linda stood up to present the budget. “Why is so much money going to operations?” I questioned, leaning in my seat. “Do you even understand or you're asking because you want to say something?” Linda said with a poker face. “Fifty percent of the budget should go to works and payment of employees so why is 40 percent going to operations?” I asked again. They were all stunned, surprised I knew anything about it. The meeting was tense from start till end. By the time the meeting ended, I was able to ascertain my authority over them. “I am the boss. I call the shots” I made my last statement
