2024-09-30 15:35:51Andrew froze, Lily's words sinking into his head.
“ You were in possession of that bracelet” “How come you were not the girl who saved me!? “Answer me this minute !” Andrew yelled, his eyes flashing with rage, his deathly glare pinned on Lily. “Bracelet? Oh that?” Lily snorted disdainfully. She got up from the bed, and stood in front of the white vanity, tying her hair into a bun, she turned to face Andrew. "You know, when I first saw the mark on that bracelet, I thought it was a sign. A sign that you were special, that you were worth something. But I was wrong. So very wrong.” “ You are utter trash!” she yelled, glaring down at Andrew in disgust. Andrew clenched his jaw, his eyes filled with fury “I won't ask again, how did you get that bracelet! ” he asked, his tone cold and deadly. Lily let out a chuckle “Why don't you go ask that naive broke ass friend of mine, she will explain better to you” “ Friend?” Andrew thought, his mind swirling with confusion “ Oh,but I'm sorry,you can't ask her because you don't know where she is,” Lily smirked , enjoying the confusion and anger laced in Andrew's face. Lily stood up from the chair, and walked over to where Mike sat on the bed and bent to sit on his laps. “You know, I find it traumatizing that I had to go through the stress of pretending to be the one who saved a disowned and abandoned trash like you” “You couldn't even help my family get a single contract ! You are so useless! ” “Really babe, not even one?” Mike asked mockingly “Yes babe,not even one. So pathetic!” She spat, glaring at Andrew. Andrew ignored her , his mind focused on one question. If it wasn't Lily who saved him on that day. Then, who was the woman that saved him 7 years ago? His eyes flashed with intensity as he pinned his cold gaze to Lily. “I need an explanation now!” “ I am Lily Harlow, anything I want, I get!” Lily snapped her disdainful gaze to Andrew and boasted, a smug smile crossing her face. “Hey you idiot , get out of my fiance's house right now ” Mike warned, glaring at Denzel in contempt. “One more word from you! and I will make sure you regret your existence” “Shut… Bang! In a swift speed, Mike was hanging in air with one of Andrew's neck tightly wrapped around his neck. “I warned you” Andrew said coldly, tightening his grip around Mike's neck Mike's face flushed red as he kicked his legs, his eyes dilating with fear. “Let him down you bastard!” Lily yelled, her face red with fury. Andrew ignored her, still holding Mike up with one hand. Mike's face turned a deep shade of purple, the veins on his forehead protruding, it felt as if he was sitting face to face with death. “Pl.. pl…ple.. please”he choked out, his eyes bulging with dread. “Let him down you fool, how dare an incompetent thing like you, lay your gutter hands on my fiance?” “A man that can change your miserable life?! ” Andrew scoffed, but still held Mike in his grasp,when he was satisfied enough, he flung him to the corner, the latter yelped out in pain. “I regret listening to my mum, because why would I have gotten entangled with a trash like you in the first place?” “I give you two days! Two days to sign those papers, now get lost! ” Lily snapped , rolling her eyes in disgust. Andrew shook his head. That moment he decided it was time to end the nonsense that had been going on. When Lily saw Andrew still standing at the same position, she thought he wanted to start pleading for a second chance. “Even if you beg me I won't accept, I'm done acting as Benita” The name rang in Andrew's ear “Benita” Was that the name of the girl who saved me? Andrew thought, making up his mind. “ I will sign the divorce papers now! ”

Chapter 228: Unwanted Husband
Andrew decided he might as well eat first. The voucher was free. It wouldn’t make sense to waste it. And maybe after that—after some warm food in his stomach—he’d go home and forget how strange the day had been.Half an hour later, he found himself standing in front of the hundred floors building. One of the top hotels in Jashem. Even the entrance smelled expensive. A waiter in white gloves had come out before he even asked for help. “This way, sir,” the man had said. And Andrew had followed.He didn’t ask questions. He didn’t want to draw attention. Just a quiet meal. A quiet hour before he returned to whatever his life was.The waiter led him past the glass staircase, past the champagne-colored chandeliers, past people who didn’t look at him, because to them, he wasn’t even there. And just as Andrew reached the section with his table, his eyes moved to the far side of the room.And there she was. Anastacia.He froze. Not because he wasn’t used to surprises. But because nothing abo
Chapter 227: The Plot
In a dimly lit room , Mr. Devon sat in his chair, back straight, hands resting on the armrest with the kind of practiced stillness that came from years of authority. The screen before him flickered with live news coverage, muted but vivid. His eyes didn’t blink much. His mind wasn’t watching the news. It was listening to what it wanted to hear in the silence behind the noise.The door creaked open with a hesitant knock that came too late. One of his men stood there, head slightly bowed, voice clipped short as he spoke. “Dr. Jackson is asking for you, sir.”Mr. Devon did not move his head. His voice was calm. Almost disinterested. “Let him in.”He didn't need to look. He didn’t have to. He already knew Jackson would enter without waiting for permission, as he always did.Jackson stepped in, shoes echoing faintly against the polished floor, and stopped only once he reached the center of the room. His brow was furrowed in a way that made him look important. But Devon could see right thr
Chapter 226: The Wheels Of Revenge
Amik had gotten home that night,his shoulders heavy with the weight of the day’s humiliation. The air inside his penthouse was thick with tension, the silence broken only by the sharp clicks of his polished shoes against the marble floor. His mind replayed the scene at the lounge —Andrew’s cold smirk, the way the other executives had turned their backs as if he were nothing. The memory burned like acid in his chest. His friend, Daniel, was already there, pacing the length of the living room like a caged animal. The television screen flickered with muted news coverage—Amik Corporation’s stocks plummeting, analysts dissecting his downfall with clinical detachment. Daniel’s face was pale, his fingers twitching at his sides as if he wanted to punch something. The moment Amik stepped in, Daniel whirled around, his eyes wild. “What the hell happened, Amik? What did I see on TV?” His voice was a blade, slicing through the quiet. Amik exhaled, his fingers tightening around the glass
Chapter 225 : Had I known Is A Brother To Mr. It's Too Late !
His voice, once proud and sharp, broke down into pleading. “I-I’m sorry,” Amik stammered, hands trembling, “Please… I didn’t know… If I had known… I swear, I wouldn’t have…” He looked up at Andrew like a drowning man begging for rope. “I was wrong. I was so wrong. Please forgive me. Just one chance, just one.” But Andrew didn’t move. He didn’t speak. He didn’t show the rage they had mocked, or the power they had denied. He only looked at Amik with the same quiet calm that had shaken them all to the core. It was that stillness that made it unbearable. “I didn’t know,” Amik repeated, now more desperately. “I didn’t mean it. I didn’t know who you were!” Amik begged harder, his voice growing more frantic. He promised anything, everything—money, favors, loyalty—but deep down, he knew it was too late. It was all his fault . His voice was shaking, words tumbling over each other, but Andrew’s expression didn’t change. There was no mercy in his eyes. He had given him chan
Chapter 224 : Dropped To His Knees
Amik laughed, loud and careless, the sound ringing through the room. “Don’t tell me you actually believed what this lowlife just said?” He tilted his head, smiling as if he had just witnessed the most ridiculous lie of the century. His words dripped with mockery, his voice full of arrogance. He spoke like a man too sure of the air he breathed, too unaware that it could be taken from him. He looked around for agreement, waiting for the others to join in, but his laughter began to echo back at him. The room didn’t laugh with him this time. There was a pause. A long one. Then a voice snapped through the silence like a crack in glass. "He was telling the truth!" one of the men shouted back, his voice cracking with urgency, and instantly, every pair of eyes in the room jerked toward the television mounted on the wall. And just like that, nothing else in the room mattered anymore. The screen lit up with the red-and-white logo of a news station known for breaking high-priori
Chapter 223 : Turn On The Goddamn TV !!
Andrew slowly took the phone away from his ear, his thumb still resting on the screen. He didn’t blink. He didn’t move. His face stayed calm—too calm. But the room around him was not. Suddenly, loud laughter exploded in the air, sharp and mocking. It was cruel. It was on purpose. Each laugh was louder and meaner than the last, filled with pride and disbelief. They weren’t just laughing at what he said. They were laughing at the idea that someone like him could say it and actually believe it. One of them clapped loudly, almost choking in his amusement. “You hear that?! He cancelled the contract,” he managed to gasp, slapping the armrest beside him. “The bloody contract! What’s next? He owns Jashem too?!” Another man snorted and leaned in, eyes glinting with ridicule. “Only the chairman can make that call. And last I checked, the chairman doesn’t wear cheap jeans and second-hand shoes.” The laughter doubled. It wasn’t just sound—it was assault. “You must really enj
