119. Recalling The Deal!
That single question from Olga made Brantley realize something he hadn’t seen clearly before—she was the perfect person for this job.What he needed wasn’t loyalty or sympathy; he just needed someone who could help him carry out his plans without hesitation. Whether that person knew his intentions were evil or not didn’t matter. What mattered was the result. And from what Olga had just said, she had proven she was exactly that kind of person.At that moment, Brantley made up his mind. He accepted her offer without giving a single thought to what Olga might demand in return for her cooperation.He looked her straight in the eye and said calmly, “I have already heard what you desire to get in exchange for this deal. So, right now, I’m putting the table in your front. I’m giving you an open check. Do with it whatever you wanna do. In other words—what do you want? Do you want money? Or you want property?”“Money!” Olga replied without hesitation.Her quick response only deepened Brantley’
120. The Deal!
Recalling the incident that happened years ago, Brantley found himself lost in thought, his mind wandering back through time. The memory was so vivid that he almost forgot where he was—until Olga’s voice pulled him sharply back to the present.“You seem lost in thought, Brantley,” she said, her tone curious yet calm. “Is something going on in your mind?”Brantley turned slightly, his expression unreadable. Without saying a word, he walked over to the bar in his lounge, his footsteps steady and deliberate. He picked up a bottle of wine, uncorked it smoothly, and poured the rich liquid into a glass with quiet precision.Taking a slow sip, he finally spoke. “I just remembered the deal of five hundred and fifty million dollars we made years ago. I hope you still remember… or have you forgotten?”Olga let out a short scoff, her lips curling faintly as her mind drifted back to that exact moment—the day she had boldly said, “It’s a deal.”“Of course,” she said at last, meeting his eyes. “Why
121. Persuasion f*e
Brantley shook his head slowly as he stared at Olga, disbelief clouding his face. What was she even saying?He would have to pay again—just to marry Aria?It sounded ridiculous. He let out a dry scoff, his tone rising in disbelief. “You gotta be kidding me, Olga. You gotta be kidding me, right?”But Olga only shook her head from her end. “No, I’m not kidding you. And I don’t think I’d ever joke about something like this. Why would I use such a serious matter to play around? Don’t I have a conscience?”Brantley frowned deeply. “Then why the hell do I have to pay you just so you can help me convince Aria to be my wife? You’re supposed to love her—she’s like your daughter! Isn’t this getting out of hand, Olga? You’re making yourself look money-minded!”Olga scoffed quietly. His words stung, yes, but she forced herself to stay calm. She buried the bitterness, letting it twist into something else—something she could use to bleed him dry. That had always been her goal anyway.Instead of let
122. The Agreement Still Holds!
Hearing the amount of money Olga casually called a persuasion fee, Brantley shook his head. He wasn’t surprised—after all, he was the one who gave her an open cheque. If there was anyone who would try to monopolize that privilege, it was Olga. Her greed never needed to be questioned. But over a billion dollars? Even for her, that was extreme.Before he could settle fully into his thoughts, Olga’s voice snapped through the phone.“What’s up with you?” she asked, as if dragging him back. “You seem to be recalling something. Tell me, is anything the problem? Did I call a very big amount? Or is it too small? Maybe I should add more?”Brantley kissed his teeth. “You’re just that greedy, aren’t you?”Olga chuckled on the other end, not even pretending to deny it.Brantley sighed and continued, his tone steady. “Look, get it in mind that the amount you called isn’t something I can’t provide. But at the same time, I hope you understand that you’re going to be doing whatever comes with spendin
123. More To Know!
After the call ended, Olga allowed herself a quiet celebration. A slow, victorious smile pulled at her lips. For years, she had waited for this moment—waited for the perfect opportunity to finally get everything she believed she deserved. And now, at last, that opportunity was walking toward her.She knew exactly what she stood to gain if she succeeded in getting Aria out of the Acosta household. In fact, she could already picture the countless advantages she would enjoy once Aria stepped out of the house for good.Because the truth was simple: Aria wasn’t just any member of the family—she was the current owner of all the Acosta properties. Every estate, every account, every inherited asset was tied to the name Acosta. And the very moment Aria left the house, changed her surname, and got married to another man, she would automatically cease to be a legal member of the Acosta household.Which meant only one thing.The moment Aria took that step and married into another family, she woul
124. Soon To Learn The Truth!
While those few lingering thoughts swirled in Olga’s mind, she already believed she knew the answer to the question everyone else had been asking—Aria would do exactly what she was told. Aria would do anything, anything Olga instructed her to do. Olga held onto that belief as though it were fact, completely unaware that Aria had her own plans carefully hidden beneath her calm exterior.Time had passed quickly, and now the event was drawing near. Aria seemed distracted, as though a storm of thoughts was gathering behind her eyes. Of course, she had every reason to be deep in thought—her mission was still the same: find out who the unknown CEO of ABC Companies really was. That was one of the major reasons she wanted to attend the upcoming party in the first place.But the first step, she told herself, was to try an easier route. If she could get Aisha to talk—even a little—that might give her a lead.Before that day arrived, Aria had already signed all the necessary documents. Every sin
125. Moving Forward
To push her plan forward, Aria went straight to the headquarters of ABC Companies. The moment she arrived, she didn’t waste even a second—she walked directly to Aisha’s office with purpose in every step.When she reached the door, she knocked only once. She didn’t bother waiting for permission—no “come in,” no “wait outside.” Instead, she simply turned the handle and walked in, carrying herself with that luxurious, composed presence she had perfected so well.“Sorry for the interference,” she apologized softly, her tone respectful and calm, as though she wasn’t hiding anything at all.Aisha, who was visibly startled to see her, needed a brief moment to gather herself. Then she forced a polite smile, extending her arm to gesture toward the chair.“No, it’s okay! You can go ahead and have a seat.”Aria settled into the chair gracefully, but Aisha was still struggling to process her unexpected arrival. After a moment, she finally voiced her concerns.“I’m bothered about what brought you
126. His Signature
Aria couldn’t believe her ears. Aisha had actually said she was ready to tell her who the true CEO of ABC Company was. For a moment, Aria wondered if she heard wrong. She had expected Aisha to come up with some excuse—maybe a wild misconception, maybe another distraction meant to confuse her or stop her from getting close to the real truth. She thought Aisha would lie, deceive her, or twist things around just to delay her.But instead… Aisha still said she would allow it to happen.That alone made Aria’s excitement grow even stronger. Her heart beat faster as she leaned closer, unable to hide her anticipation.Still breathless from the shock, she asked again, “Are you sure that you are willing to tell me who the CEO is?”Aisha gave her a quick smile, the kind that looked both playful and complicated. Then she said slowly, “About that… yes. I am ready, but I don’t think I am ready to tell you who the CEO is.”The smile on Aria’s face vanished instantly.Her voice trembled. “Uhmm… what
126
Aria already knew what Aisha’s response would be, yet she pretended to be oblivious, waiting to hear her words. Maybe she was right, maybe she was wrong. But Aisha didn’t speak. She remained silent, giving no indication of reacting to Aria’s words.Noticing the silence, Aria decided to break it herself.“And why aren’t you saying anything? Or are you still going to deny me access to the signature again?” she asked, her voice laced with both curiosity and challenge.Aisha’s eyes locked tightly on Aria as she finally spoke.“You haven’t even heard my answer, yet you’re already judging. Is that how you reach your conclusions?”Aria, unwilling to create further friction or prolong the matter, took a deep breath and controlled the anger already simmering within her. Calmly, she replied:“You’ve chosen not to respond, yet you accuse me of judging. Fine, I am judging. But to know whether my judgment is right or wrong, I need clarity from you. Tell me—are you going to get me the signature of
127. Clash Of Power
“Just think about it this way, Miss Acosta,” she continued, her gaze steady on Aria. “The CEO has made it clear that he doesn’t want anyone to know who he is. So why would you assume he would allow the same person—or the same group of people he wants kept in the dark—to have access to his signature? It is not for me to decide; the authority lies entirely with the CEO. Please understand that I simply cannot do this.”Aria rolled her eyes in exasperation, running her fingers through her hair as frustration bubbled over. “It’s always the same excuse, over and over again. Why can’t you come up with something else to cover up your lies… and the lies of that CEO? And that reminds me—he made me CEO… well, representative CEO. You should put yourself in my shoes for a moment. If someone made you the representative CEO of a company, how would it feel to hold that power yet be unable to exercise it? For him to appoint me means he trusts me—but he doesn’t even trust me with his identity. So tell
