“I am a hundred percent certain, Boss.” Clara with a convinced tone, nodded her head for the umpteenth time.“I am sure that this information is very certain, Boss. There is no way this can be a lie…” She took a deep breath and was about to continue when she noticed the look on Gerald’s face.She stared at him, observing as his face twisted into a scowl, anger slowly simmering through his veins.“That bastard!” Gerald growled, his eyes burning with resentment.“But…” He suddenly lowered his expression, his mind filled with several thoughts that he was forced to go through.At that moment, even silence didn’t look like it was going to help in any way, but his determination to get to the bottom of the situation was becoming very intense.Clara on the other hand had tried to ignore the thoughts that crawled into her mind, but the more she tried to act as though she didn’t want to know more, the more difficult it was for her, seeming as though her head was going to explode if she didn’t as

“What the hell is going on?” He asked himself, but it didn’t even look like he was going to be able to find a suitable explanation.Evelyn was walking right behind him, and when she finally drew closer, she cleared her throat, moving her eyes from one corner to the other.“That was strange…” She muttered, but since that seemed to be the first time she was going to be in that building, she was forced to switch her focus from the shocking observation at the entrance of the building to its beauty.“This place is marvelous…” She thought to herself, her eyes scouring the entire place as she was forced to slow down.Then Helena appeared, and barely five seconds after Gerald stopped, she did the same after she noticed her presence.“Why are you back to this place?” Helena asked harshly, firing shots of annoyance at Gerald.Gerald tried to speak, but the words seemed to have been lost inside his mind.So he took a deep breath, his eyes moving from one corner to the other while he tried to ge

“Allow me to concentrate…” Gerald grunted, taking two steps backward while he looked from one man to the other.The next second, Helena appeared, marching stylishly toward them with a wry smile on her face.Gerald cleared his throat when she got closer, taking a deep breath.“I thought you said you were going to let us see your boss!” His tone was high, laced with anger and disappointment.Helena scoffed, looking him directly in the face with her sinister smile intact.“I can’t believe you fell for that…” She sniggered, sneering at both Gerald and Evelyn.“Funny of you to believe that I am going to let you see my boss because you demanded it…” She tutted, looking Gerald in the eyes while she stood behind the fierce-looking guards whose only agenda was to obey her every instruction.“Grab them…” Helena said calmly, and just like machines, the men swept into action without blinking, grabbing both Gerald and Evelyn and making an additional act of pushing them down to their knees.Gerald

“You called me thrash, you told me that I was never going to amount to anything. You were so happy that you had taken what was mine, and now that I have taken what belongs to you…” He paused for a few seconds, victory and disdain written all over his face.“How does it feel to be finally served the meal your dished out?” He waited, but Gerald was too ashamed to say even a word.He could no longer look him in the eyes, bending his face to the ground while he struggled with both shame and regret.“We are even now, Gerald…” Stephen continued with a voice barely above a whisper, but it was still enough to carry the weight of his anger and ridicule, reflecting the fulfillment lingering inside him.“I lost my wife and dignity to you, Gerald. You lost your company and your ego to me…”Gerald swallowed hard, and slowly, he lifted his face to look at Stephen, more tears welling in his eyes.“Those are not the same thing, Stephen. You cannot compare your wife to my company. That’s years if swea

Gerald waited anxiously, staring Stephen in the eyes, but he couldn’t get any response from him.All he could get was silence, Stephen staring at him while he held onto his wry smile.“Say something!” He urged, losing his patience.Stephen cleared his throat, and with his wry smile intact, he looked around, moving his eyes from his guards to Helena.“I can’t believe you fell for that, Gerald…” He huffed, causing Gerald to gasp, lifting his brows above his wide eyes before he returned his gaze to him.“What do you mean? We had a deal!”“No, we didn’t…” Stephen gave him a very quick response, staring at him without getting rid of the wry smile plastered all over his face.“I told you that I could reconsider you, Gerald…” He continued, his eyes refusing to blink even once.“I have decided that I am not going to change my mind, Gerald. You are going to have to deal with the fate of losing your company to me, just as I have decided to deal with the fate of losing my wife to you…”Gerald gr
