Chapter 41: The Great West Corporation
THE ZADE’S RESIDENCE George Zade sat in his study, his cane resting against the desk which covered with reports. The double doors opened and Fred walked in, he had a smug smile on that made George’s blood boil.“You still have the audacity to show up here looking happy after what your son did!” George yelled, hitting his fists on the table, some of the papers flew from the table to the ground. “You should be ashamed! I didn’t make you my second in line instead of Theodore for no reason and you have let him down time and time again because you can’t handle a single woman like Arabella!”Fred didn’t respond immediately. Instead, he reached into his jacket and brought out an envelope and tossed it on the table.George glanced at it then at him, furrowing his brows, he asked. “What is this?”“Father, you’re trying to fault me for everything that is happening but you stood back and watch my son be taken away from me.”George inhaled sharply and fell back into his seat. “What did you expec
Chapter 42: Arabella Is Jealous?
Arabella felt a wave of helplessness as she watched Fred chuckle while leaving her office. If she allowed this help, she would lose everything she had worked hard for.By noon, George and the rest of the shareholders including Fred were standing at the centre of the lobby. Fred was beaming with smiles as he could taste victory at his finger tips.“They are here.”Seraphina Vance walked into the lobby. Her face was cold as she stared at everyone gathered. As she walked, the air changed and her perfume hit Arabella, her eyes widened.She had smelled that perfume before… on Maxwell.It’s her.George stepped forward, stretching forth his hand for a handshake. “Ms. Vance, it’s honour to have you here. Fred has briefed me on the potential for our cooperation.”Seraphina didn’t take the hand, she didn’t even offer a smile. Her eyes, hidden behind dark designer shades swept over George and Fred with disinterest.“I hear your company as a project,” She said tilting her head. “With the Forest H
Chapter 43: Shopping Spree
“Father, this isn’t enough to crush Arabella. I will have to do something more than this,” Fred said to George as they sat over lunch in Zade's residence.“What do you want to do?” George’s eyes shone with interest. “I hope you haven’t forgotten that no matter what you do, she seems to be untouchable. Xander still hasn’t returned home yet either.”Fred’s jaw tightened at that thought. Deep down, he had already deemed his son as dead. He tried to reach out to Marcus all to no avail. In fact, he had gotten threatened by his men that if he tried to contact them again, he would be the one to replace Xander.“I’m aware, father. But this time around, I will be careful.”“Alright then,” George replied, taking a long sip from his glass of wine. “In that case, whatever you do, make sure it doesn’t come back to us. She is beginning to grow some courage and I don’t want that.”…“Uhm, every time I come in here, the room is always messy,” Sienna grunted, as she picked up pieces of clothing from t
Chapter 44: Xander Is In Coma
At that moment, Arabella walked in with Maxwell beside her. Her brows furrowed as she saw the bags that took up a huge space of the living room and she looked up at her parents.“Is something wrong?” She asked, glancing at them both. “What are all these bags doing here?”“Ask your mother,” Theodore responded. “She claimed to have found a check in your room and she decided to spend the money.”Arabella’s eyes widened in shock as she listened to her father’s explanation.“And so?” Sienna argued. “My dear Arabella, you can’t possibly blame me. I needed a change of wardrobe and when I saw the money I decided to take it. After all you make more money than you did before so a million dollars is no big deal for you.”“A million dollars, mom! Where the hell did you see that kind of money? And you spent it all on clothes, shoes and bags!?” Arabella yelled.Sienna shrugged her shoulders, unfazed by the looks she got. “I saw it on your bed.”Arabella’s face twisted in confusion. She didn’t remem
Chapter 45: Arabella’s Removal
Arabella’s mouth went dry instantly. Her mind swirling in different directions. She didn’t know what to make of this or where the check had come from. She knew she had written down such an amount so how did that check end up in her mother’s hands? Seeing that his wife was rendered speechless by her uncle and George, Maxwell’s eyes narrowed. His wife was being bullied yet again. “Where’s the proof you claim to have?” Maxwell asked. George threw down a file containing the accounts at him. Glaring straight at them was the amount debited by Sienna! “I have given you many chances, Arabella. But this time around, I don’t think I want you to work at my company anymore and also, we have cancelled the cooperation with the Forest Hills Group and we have paid the compensation already. So first thing tomorrow morning, I would like you to pack your things and leave the CEO’s office,” George announced. “Okay,” Arabella responded simply. Fred’s brow shot up. He had expected her to put up a fig
Chapter 46: The Banquet
For the past three days, word had began to go ahead that the vice president of the Forest Hills Group Elena Hatfield was preparing a welcoming banquet for the president. No one had seen the brilliant mind that had ruled over the markets for the past four years to this day. The Elite families whisperered amongst themselves that the President might still be the same person who had spent over a fortune at the auction two weeks ago.Since no one was arguing that fact, everyone was scrambling to get an invite. Everyone including the Zade family.“Fred, have you checked the mail? We are supposed to get an invite as well!” George asked for the umpteenth time. He had been seeing other families get the invitation card and he didn’t want to left out. Even though he had terminated the contract with Forest Hill Group, there’s no way the president would be petty enough not to invite him and besides maybe he could link up Ashley with him if he was single and that would bring more benefits to his
Chapter 47: Fake Invite
“He’s coming along with us, mom.”“No, he is not,” Sienna snapped. “He wasn’t invited. And there’s no way he would come with us and disgrace us.”“Mom! If he’s not going then I’m not going,” Arabella responded.“Sienna, please just stop it,” Theodore said, with a sigh. “Stop what?!” Sienna yelled. “We can’t have him snooping around and embarrassing us like always. This is a public event and I don’t want him there and that’s final!”Theodore sighed in resignation and stared at Arabella, who shook her head. Maxwell let out a small smile and held Arabella’s hand.“I think you should listen to your mother this time around, wife. Don’t worry about me, just go.”Sienna huffed. “Atleast he seems to have more sense than you.”Arabella raised a brow as she tilted her head, staring at Maxwell. “What are you saying? I’m not going anywhere without you!”“I will be fine, Bella. Besides you could use this to make more connections to start up something. You need this more than I do. Don’t miss this
Chapter 48: The Degrading Table
“Grandfather, we didn’t steal anything—“ Arabella began.“Of course, you would deny it. It might not even be stolen, it could be fake as well,” Ashley chuckled, looking at them. “You didn’t bring your useless husband with you? Are you thinking of seducing the president the same way you seduced Marcus Throne to beat up my brother?!”The crowd’s whispers increased.“You didn’t hear?” One man said to the other standing beside him. “Hear what?”“Marcus Throne had entered into the boardroom with Arabella and took Xander away on charges of disrupting their project with the Forest Hills Group. I heard that he is now bedridden and in coma. The doctors don’t even know when he would wake up yet.”“Are you serious?! That’s cruel. I didn’t know Arabella to be this callous! She would even harm her own family just to get what she wanted!”Ashley’s smug smile widened as she heard the words the guest were saying. On the other hand, Arabella’s eyes were fixed to the floor as guilt ate her up.“Hey! W
Chapter 49: The CEO OF Forest Hills Group
Soon, the banquet began. George and the others sat on their table, looking secluded from the rest of the crowd, their faces solemn as the guests glanced at them with peculiar looks before whispering amongst themselves.Ashley’s face went green with envy as she watched Arabella speak with the guests who had come to their VIP table with smiles on her face. Her fists clenched under the table.“That bitch!” She cursed. Sienna was having the time of her life as she listened to the compliments the women gave to her about her style. She had always wanted this life and this was the main reason she had gotten married to Theodore but unfortunately George never liked his son for reasons best known to him. Rumors were going about that Theodore was his illegitimate son but that wasn’t true. George had only developed a liking for Fred and his own branch of the family because of the business ideas he had stolen from Arabella. Getting all the attention now, made Sienna’s heart swell with pride eve
Chapter 50: Happy Anniversary Wife!
He was dressed in an expensive suit and exuded a very intimidating and domineering aura like that of a CEO. Her eyes widened as she thought he could be the president.But, that’s not possible. The president should be with his wife by now and besides she hadn’t met with him before so why would he call her up here… alone?As she pondered over these thoughts, the man slowly turned towards her and a gasp flew from her lips. The man standing before her was…“Maxwell?”“Hello, wife,” Maxwell greeted with a small smile.“I don’t understand. What are you doing here?” She asked, confusion coating her voice. “And… why are you dressed like this?”“Happy anniversary, wife.”As soon as he said that, fireworks exploded behind him. The lights visible through the transparent ceiling to floor windows.Arabella furrowed her brows as realization hits her. She took a step back as she shook her head. It can’t be…“Are you the President of the Forest Hills group?”Maxwell nodded slowly. “Yes, I am.”“But
