Julia.It had been a week since my world shattered. Seven days since I found out that my husband—the man I had given everything to—had a son with his personal assistant. Seven days of silence, of sleepless nights, of a rage so deep it threatened to consume me. I couldn’t even look at Benjamin without feeling sick. For the past week, I had avoided him completely. I locked myself in my room, only coming out when I knew he wasn’t around. He had tried talking to me at first, but I ignored him. What was there to say? What could he possibly say that would erase the betrayal? The only thing that filled my mind now was revenge. I had given up my rights to Camilla’s company for him. I had trusted him blindly. And now, I saw the truth—Benjamin wasn’t just a liar, he was dangerous. If I didn’t act fast, I would lose everything. Everything that I killed Camilla for.I sat on the edge of my bed, staring blankly at the floor. My fingers clenched around the silk sheets as my mind raced. I n

Benjamin.I sat at my desk, fingers tapping rhythmically against the polished wood, my mind racing. Julia had been here. She had gone through the company’s financial records. I clenched my jaw, staring at the stack of documents in front of me. I knew this moment would come, but I wasn’t ready for it. Now she knew—knew that the company was on the brink of bankruptcy.

Isaiah. I pinched the bridge of my nose. Julia had given me two days, and the clock was already ticking. If I wanted to keep her from looking deeper into the company’s finances, I needed to act fast. But first, the meeting. I straightened my tie and I was so damn determined to get that contract. This business deal was my last chance to keep the company afloat. If I could just secure this contract, I could buy mysel

Camilla.The sun beat down on my skin as I walked through the crowded streets, exhaustion weighing heavily on my shoulders. My feet ached from hours of trekking, and my stomach twisted in hunger, but I couldn’t afford to stop. Racheal was running out of time, and I still had no idea how I was going to come up with five thousand dollars. I had spent the entire morning searching for work—any work. But everywhere I went, the answer was the same. “Sorry, we’re not hiring."“We don’t need extra hands right now."“Try again next week."Desperation clawed at my chest. I wiped the sweat from my forehead, my fingers trembling slightly from exhaustion. I couldn’t let Racheal die. She had taken me in when I had no one, and now it was my turn to save her. With no other options, I made my way back to the same construction site I had worked at before. My body still ached from the last time, but If this was the only way to make money, I would do it. When I arrived, the foreman looked at me w
