Clara Blackwell sat at the edge of the swimming pool with a glass of champagne in her hand, completely unaware of what had just happened at Blackwell Corporation.She was still relaxing when the door slammed open and one of the maids rushed inside."Ma'am. I think there is a problem.""There is always a problem Rosa. But that does not mean you get to barge in here like that. It is not acceptable.""Ma'am it is. It is Theresa." She gasped trying to catch her breath.Even with that name being mentioned Clara did not seem particularly bothered."What about Theresa. Is she dead.""No ma'am. She is here with Faction X soldiers. They just stormed in." She explained and that was what it finally took for Clara to rise to her feet."Is this some sort of joke.""I would never joke about something like this." The maid was still visibly shaken as she continued. Clara grabbed the coat hanging on the rail and walked quickly toward the main building.She stopped dead when she saw it.Luggage. Bags.

After class Daniel wasted no time and went to see Dean Ambrose at his office. The dean immediately rose to his feet the moment Daniel stepped in."Master Daniel." He called out with so much respect in his voice."You do not need to address me in such manner. Others might be listening and given that I want to keep my identity a secret I do not think I want that kind of attention from others.""I understand. My apologies. Please have a seat." He offered and even though he had just been corrected he continued to speak to him with the same level of respect."What would you like me to offer you.""I do not need anything. I just need a favor from you.""Whatever it is, go ahead and say it and I will do it right away.""The medical competition coming up in two days. Can you tell me more about it." Daniel requested as he settled into the armchair opposite Ambrose.Ambrose went ahead and explained every single detail regarding the competition and how tough it was going to be."There are situat

It wasn't so difficult for Daniel to put a smile on his face as soon as Theresa walked through the door. Like his lifespan was not at risk and he wasn't sure if he would be able to get his hands on the items the system had asked of him."How was work today?" He asked with a smile on his face, but had kept his distance knowing fully well that there were boundaries to this marriage he wouldn't dare to cross."It was fine and much better with the invitation from Zane Creston, do you know that I was going through the company record and realized that Ryan messed up a lot, now I have to start revamping and need the help of a man like Zane""Why do you need his help?" Daniel asked as he had already started setting up the table."For starters, I need to be able to secure at least three of the construction of Coast City, that would boost back our sales and the share status of the company and you know there are several other companies out there seeking this same deal, I need a man like Zane to

Daniel stood frozen at a spot trying to fully understand what was going on, but Theresa remained calm even though the red wine had just stained her vintage couture dress.Most people even in the elite circle have no idea that the wife of James Ferguson who is next in line to become the matriarch of the Ferguson family and Theresa's mother, late Mrs. Beatrice, come from the same maternal home.And not to mention the fact that the maternal home spoken about was the Creston estate which makes the syndicate Lord uncle to both ladies and as a result of that, most people would believe that they gain more advantage over the syndicate Lord"Yes, she is my cousin's sister" Theresa finally explained to Daniel with a confused expression."My mother was sister to Zane Creston and same thing goes for her mother""Oh, I see" everything was finally starting to make sense to him, especially how it was easy for Theresa to meet freely with a man like Zane Creston when others even more powerful couldn't

Daniel was now certain that something was wrong, and since Theresa had only heard about the birthday party just yesterday, there was a strong possibility that she had not prepared for it.He had never attended such functions before and didn't realize he had to come with a gift, and now Theresa looked like she was going to lose it."What is it?" He asked very softly but calmly, so that it was just the two of them who could hear him. "Didn't you prepare a gift for Lord Zane?"He asked, and the more he thought about it, the more he realized that it was impossible she had come with nothing.All through yesterday, she had been so excited about this same birthday and never stopped talking about it.She had drafted out her proposal with hopes that he was going to help her. Daniel was certain there was no way she had come with no gift at all. That kind of carelessness didn't suit her."I prepared something""If you did, then why are you hesitating, go ahead and present it right now""That is
