Chapter Eleven: Stellar Entertainment
Benjamin fixed eyes on little Aria in genuine shock, Cassandra's expression was a mix of both shock and amusement. Aria's reformed her face into a pitiful expression like a lost puppy in the middle of nowhere, unaware of the deeper meaning of the plain words her innocent mind processed but the shock on their faces gave her mind a double-take."Aria," Benjamin took one step to her, his voice slightly hardened. Cassandra was already laughing quietly at her innocent expression. "Do you just like causing trouble or you're just overexcited i took you out today? You want me to stop taking you out, huh?"Aria's expression dropped. She held the front of her gown, twirling it gently, her voice so innocent it was touching. "No, Daddy," she shook her head gently. "I like Aunty Cassandra. I want us to see her again."Cassandra stepped forward to them and crouched to meet her height.She smiled at her warmly. "You want us to meet again, right?" Aria nodded."Then we'll have it your way, sweethea
Chapter twelve: The war in silence
Benjamin was already dialing Jackson Voss's number."Voss," he toned, his voice sharp sounding slightly urgent. "I need you to run a check on the every interview going on at Stellar Entertainment this morning. Get me every meaningful information about a woman called Cassandra Sinclair.""Right on it, Master Hayes." Jackson's response came sharply.Benjamin slide the phone back to his pocket.Immediately Benjamin stepped into the Car with Aria, his phone buzzed with notification.The screen lit up with information about every member of the Hayes family.Benjamin relaxed into the leather, scanning through the list immensely.Gerald Hayes— the first Child of grandfather Hayes.

Chapter Thirteen: And it might be tomorrow
The tension that compressed around the table was thick enough to cut through ice.Gerald Hayes, the first child sat at the end of the table. His has a heavy built, thick shoulder squaring against an oxblood suit that seemed to drink in all the harshness of the chandelier and roof lights. His expression was calm, his hands set on the table, his silence was suffocating and heavy that his son, Jack sitting nearest to him felt the cold murderous aura around him.He didn't speak yet but his body did it loudly.Magdalena Hayes sat a few meters away from him at the side of the table in an overall black designer outfit— a leather jacket, and skimpy skirt with black leggings and heels. Her appearance assumed mourning the late old Amos Hayes but her expression was nothing like it. She chewed on gum shamelessly, anger slowly rising inside her chest. She flew into the city just for the gathering and now it felt like she was losing everything already.Seven companies? One person? That was outrag
Chapter fourteen: Gerald Hayes
"First," Gerald Hayes started with the quietness of someone who wasn't used to shouting before he command a room. "It is so rude to sit down here waiting for a kid I can merely crush at the bottom of my feet."His voice was a rough thing, angry because his pride had been trampled upon by Benjamin's absence."And it's more dishonorable and irritating to know that my own father hypocritically wrote that thing with nothing to my name except insult. This is absolute nonsense."He turned to look at the Lawyer."Are you sure," he asked, "this is what my father wants?""Mr. Gerald Hayes, the Will had spoken," Lawyer Dwayne said. "that is how your father wants his properties distributed." He said.Sensing the room shifting on him, Lawyer Dwayne added quickly."I'd like to take my leave now." He grabbed his suitcase, quickly walking out of the hall.Behind him, the room burst into comments."This is unacceptable!""The Will must be reviewed! It's invalid!""That bastard son can't have every

Chapter sixteen: The interview
Some minutes later after Hannah walked in, she was out with a smile that said everything went successful with the interview, her shoulder lifted up than before she walked in and she moved across the room with an entitled grace.She leaned over and whispered to Cassandra's ear, her voice dripping with mock triumph."I told you," she smirked, "It's either more. No less."Her voice dropped even lower."You'll be at home, maybe in the prison when you can't pay up your Family Debt to save your company from total Destruction, watching me on the screen from there." She laughed into her ear— an ugly jeering cackle that Cassandra had heard over and over again. Hannah stood straighter, taking the same proud posture which she stepped out of the HR office.Cassandra didn't give her the satisfaction of any reaction. She just stood up and walked into the HR office with her document, confidence and presence.The inside of the HR office was too bright and everything was professionally arranged. A lo
Chapter seventeen: Richard Carlson's pressure
The silence in the room grew so intense that the walls felt it. The uninterrupted cooling system suddenly blew hot air, a temperature shift by presence, not mechanical fault.Cassandra clasped her palm on her thigh, forcing her expression to stay calm and avoiding eye contact with Richard without making it look awkward and avoidance.She felt it. The way Richard's eyes traced on her body like laser stripping her clothes in an imaginary way that made her skin crawl in irritation.Richard leaned in to the desk, his smirk sharp."Quite the pitch, Ms. Cassandra." His voice came calm and measured.Cassandra looked at him now, forcing a smile that couldn't reach her eyes and that wasn't genuine."Thanks, Mr. Richard Carlson." She said with a formal voice. Richard chuckled in amusement. Something Cute."Do you always talk formal, Ms. Cassandra?" He leaned closer, his voice dropping to a playful edge instead of a professional tone."Only when it's necessary, Sir." She responded sharply, uni
Chapter eighteen: Things came crashing
Cassandra stepped out of the office, her expression sad, her weight heavier. She was just a second to a successful collaboration with the Stellar Entertainment before everything came crashing down.Her mind spun wildly.Who had Mr. Charles went to pick his call? Who was the anonymous higher-up who knew she was present there.Richard Carlson stepped out of the office behind her."Ms. Cassandra." He called gently. "I'm sorry about how things went in there." He said.Cassandra didn't respond. She simply nodded. She knew it when people saw an opening to take Advantage."You should consider my help," he said. "I can still make a miracle happen." "I'm not interested in whatever help you're offering, Richard Carlson!" She sneered at him and turned her back, walking out.Richard slides his hands inside his pocket, watching her walk away with an amusing smirk."You'll come back," He smirked with a faint amusement of a child playing tantrum, "they always do."Cassandra's phone buzzed along th
Chapter nineteen: Cassandra in trap
Cassandra burst into room 100 at Five Star hotel, the door gave way with a slam. She drove into the room, heels clacking frantically against expensive marble like gunshots against a steel wall.Sebastian Laurent was waiting inside the luxurious Ambiance with a glass of champagne swirling in his hand gently, his expression relaxed despite Cassandra's sudden entrance. He'd expected it.At the centre of the room, a table sat like a throne, filled with international dishes and Bottles of Wines that cost more than some people's three months salary.He lowered the glass and smirked at Cassandra, Charcoal suit impeccable and looking untouchable over crisp shirt unbuttoned at the collar."You came." Sebastian Laurent said knowingly. His voice was slow, calculating.Cassandra Crossed the room to meet her, her expression plastered with anger."What have you done, Sebastian!" She bellowed. "You ruined everything for me! What is the matter with you in the head!""You've gotten into my head, Cass
Chapter twenty: Sebastian plan
Sebastian pulled his suit from his body and tossed it off. He smirked predatorily, walking to the bed with an animalistic carnal desire burning in his eyes.Cassandra's heart hammered realizing what was about to happen. She'd just walked into a trap she hadn't realize because anger had overridden every instinct of reasoning earlier.She scrambled from the bed and grabbed a bottle of champagne on the table at the centre and pointed it at Sebastian as a weapon, her grip firm under it."Don't you dare come near me, Sebastian," She warned, her voice trembling with fear, her entire body shaking. "Don't!Sebastian simply chuckled, amused by her defense instead of receding. With a steady hand, he started to unbutton his shirt."You're always like this, Cassandra. Always stubborn. Always defensive—" He paused, raising his head to look at her with a smirk. "— but that's what makes you interesting. Women I have in my bed in the past are always submissive. Too vulnerable. No fight. Just submissi
