Chapter 4: Game on
“That bastard is a cheater, because why would he agree to the divorce easily?”
Lily complained, and for some reason, was disappointed and angry that Andrew didn't think twice before accepting the divorce.
She had expected him to beg, and bawl his eyes out asking for a second chance, but he didn't, and that surprised the hell out of her.
There was no other reasonable explanation she could think of, that made him agree to the divorce like that —if not, that he had been cheating on her.
“I hope I don't see that hoe of his, because I'm going to teach them both a lesson” She threatened, picking up her phone from the bed.
“Babe, come and see, your ex is getting into the latest range rover Prado ?” Mike called out , still peeping from the window, his gaze fixed on the car, till it went out of sight.
“ Don't take that puppet seriously, he's probably a driver” Lily mocked, her eyes fixed on the phone in her hands.
“Oh, I never thought of that, I thought he had graduated to hijacking cars” Mike said, bursting into laughter as Lily joined him.
“Babe, you know this would be the biggest moment of my life” Lily flung her phone on the bed and stood up to join Mike where he stood in just his briefs.
“ Babe, do you know the most exciting part? The mysterious chairman of A and U would be the one to personally present my money to me tomorrow” Lily giggled, her face litting up with smiles.
“And that's not even all, I am going to be a fucking shareholder in the biggest company in the world!” she squealed in delight, jumping on Mike's body, and in turn he grabbed her ass, pressing her body into his.
“ And before I forget babe, we need to invite your friends and business partners to come witness this day with me.”
“Of course, you are the star of the day, I will make sure to invite all the influential men I know” Mike assured, pressing his lips on Lily's.
“And like I told you, I will be going to A and U group to sign the partnership today”He added
“You can start going now babe, there is no time to waste “Lily squealed in excitement, tightening her grip on Mike's shoulder.

After hours of being on the road, a white range rover Prado finally came to a halt at the other side of the city.
A part known to house only the elites and influential men. No one dared enter without a permit card.
Amongst other exotic tall glass buildings stood the largest of them all.
It was none other than A and U building , the leading company in Nashville city and beyond with over 5 branches located at various locations around the world.
The white gates slide automatically letting the range rover in.
And as soon as they got to the private garage, a man in his mid 40’s cladded in a black expensive suit, highlighted with speed and opened the car door for a younger man dressed in casual wear.
Just as Andrew was about to step out from the car, his phone vibrated, notifying an incoming call.
“Sir, we found Benita. She is currently based at Ceal Veal city.
And it seems her financial situation is not good... According to our investigation, her company is now on the verge of bankruptcy.”“What?! Send me every detail you have now.” Andrew said with shaking voice.
He blamed himself for making such a stupid mistake to find the wrong person and wasted the whole three years.But he hoped it was not too late to make up for her.
Suppressing his overwhelming emotions and taking a deep breath, he dropped the call and dialed another number.
“Hello sir,” Emily, his personal assistant, spoke up from the other end.
“Emily, I need you to make a public announcement that the banquet is shifted to three days time, not tomorrow anymore” He needed some time to meet that girl. And he had actually planned to cancel the banquet when he signed the divorce paper, but now he changed his mind.
He was really curious of Lily's reaction when he appeared there, with Benita. And he was going to make her return everything that didn’t belong to her back to Benita!
“ Okay, Sir”. The assistant replied.
Andrew Baron stepped out of the car as he headed inside his company- the A and U group.
But as he walked into the lobby, he sighted the last person he had expected to see again today.
“Hi, Mr ex son-in-law” Mike called out loudly, his lips twisting into a smirk
Andrew ignored him as he continued walking, not sparing him a glance.
He had important things to do. Wasting time on this trash was not on the list.“You don't need to be scared of me, don't worry I won't get you kicked out ,” Mike called out, quickening up his pace to reach Andrew.
But with just a few steps away, he paused involuntarily as the memory of how Andrew held his neck and almost strangled him, flashed through his mind.
It annoyed him that a man with no significance and way below his status , managed to intimidate him.
With one glance at both sides, his confidence spiked up to the fullest, as he saw the security guards that were littered around,so he continued walking, stood in Andrew's front, blocking his path.
Andrew huffed out in annoyance and paused for a second
“ Wow, I never knew A and U allow species like you in here” Mike taunted mockingly, his face covered in a smug smile.
“You already know now,”Andrew replied calmly, and made to continue walking.
“Wait, wait.. Just hold on for a second, don't worry I won't order the security to bundle you out, you can go in and apply for your cleaner Job, after all you need it to survive, I'm not that heartless to chase you out of somewhere you are privileged to be in ” Mike said in low mocking tone.
“Anyways it would be so bad of me to not say thank you.”Mike said, as Andrew raised his eyebrows questioningly, signaling him to say whatever it is he has to say .
“I just wanted to thank you for easily handing over Olivia to me by agreeing to the divorce, I thought you would want to prove stubborn, but thank you, she is indeed good in all area, especially in bed” Mike said, intentionally drawing out the bed part.
“Is that all? ” Andrew replied as calmly as ever, his voice not giving off any slightest hint of anger
Mike raised his eyebrows in confusion, his insides seething with anger that Andrew didn't give him the reaction he wanted.
Just the sight of the man standing before him annoyed him to death,and he couldn't hide his hate any longer.
“Stop pretending! You think you are all that?” Mike sneered glaring at Andrew contemptuously.
“Do you know why I am here? I was representing my father to sign a collaboration worth millions of dollars with the A and U Group. "
“And do you know how powerful the chairman of A and U Group is?”Mike sneered, his voice dripping with mockery." He owns more than one hundred companies and A and U is only one of them. He even won numerous battles for the country. And even the president wanted to marry his daughter to him and he declined! Now you know what it means to colllaborate with such a company, you idiot?"
“Well, you do have quite a knowledge of me.” Andrew chuckled lightly.
“What? You?” Mike asked, bursting into a laughter.
“ Are you saying you're the chairman? Hahaha! You are a piece of trash that could never amount to anything, and you dare stand there to talk rubbish! " He said disdainfully, looking at Andrew as if he were a fool.
Beep!
The sound of an incoming text caught his attention as he took a quick glance at his phone.
It was from Lily : “Babe, I just got the news that A and U shifted the banquet to 3 days and I just spoke with the event planner, they can set up our wedding a day after the banquet.”

Chapter 244 : Rules Must Be Followed
Anastasia had no choice but to oblige with her friend’s demands. She didn’t want to, but the pressure from their stares at the other side of the restaurant was enough to make her skin prickle. If Andrew was someone influential, someone whose name carried weight in the business world or social scene, she wouldn’t have even waited to be told before she introduced him to the group. She would have walked him in with pride, letting their envious eyes soak in every detail. But Andrew’s case was different. He was a nobody. Not from an influential family, not even a man who owned a small business or had any visible status. Just a desperate man, in her eyes, who wanted nothing more than to leech off her family by marrying her. In her mind, he was a disgrace — a burden she couldn’t shake off — and nothing more. Yet here she was, having to drag him into a circle that would eat him alive with their words.Reluctantly, she walked over to Andrew’s table. He was seated alone in the far corner, cal
Chapter 243: A Low-Life
Where’s your manager?! I need to see him.” Mirian’s voice came out sharp, each word carrying irritation that drew a few glances from nearby tables. Her tone was firm, almost commanding, and the staff at the reception desk immediately stiffened at her presence. She wasted no time explaining the entire situation, her hands gesturing animatedly as she turned halfway, ready to point out the waiter who had blatantly ignored her earlier. Her voice was fast, words tumbling out in an annoyed rush, as though the injustice she suffered could not be told in anything less than urgent detail.“Mirian, look,” Cynthia called suddenly, cutting through Mirian’s explanation. Her tone had a strange edge—half amused, half curious—which made Mirian’s brows knit in mild confusion.But just as she turned toward Cynthia, her movement froze mid-way, her gaze locking onto something that made her blink twice in disbelief. There, seated comfortably at a corner table, was the very man she had confidently mistaken
Chapter 242 : Just A Waiter
Andrew stopped mid-stride and turned his head slightly, his brow furrowed, expecting something urgent or at least worth his attention. The voices and soft music in the background hummed around him, but this one sharp command had been prominent.“Get me an extra wine glass,” the voice ordered without hesitation.It belonged to Mirian, one of Anastacia’s closest friends. She didn’t bother to look at the man she was talking to closely; in her mind, there was no need. Her eyes had already swept lazily over his simple polo and plain jeans with no luxury item in sight and had decided he couldn’t possibly be anything other than a waiterShe didn’t care that Andrew’s clothing didn’t match the waiters—the staff here wore crisp white shirts, black waistcoats, and polished shoes. In her eyes, the man didn’t look like someone who belonged in a place where the cheapest wine bottle cost more than some people’s rent. Therefore, he must be here to serve.Andrew didn’t answer. He saw no reason to.
Chapter 241 : Mistaken Identity
Andrew showed his card to the security guard at the entrance, his expression unreadable, and without further questions, he was led into the restaurant.Andrew followed the waiter through the grand entrance, his steps steady, the click of his shoes muffled by the thick carpet. The restaurant exuded quiet opulence—golden chandeliers casting a warm glow over polished marble floors, crystal glasses catching the light like tiny prisms, and the subtle hum of hushed conversations blending with the gentle strains of a piano in the corner. He had no intention of being distracted, yet as they wove past a row of neatly dressed diners, his eyes instinctively scanned the room—and froze. There, sitting in an intimate corner, was the last person he had expected to see.Anastacia Ashton.She sat at a table with five others, all elegantly dressed, their posture and laughter carrying the air of people who knew they belonged. Her laughter, bright and effortless just moments ago, faded the second she s
Chapter 240 : Rumors
About forty minutes later, Anastacia finally arrived at Havens Palace. Her friends were already gathered at their usual spot, chatting and sipping their wine. They greeted her warmly when she walked in, but there was a certain curiosity in their eyes. She pulled out a chair, sat down, and joined in a brief conversation about the latest events in town, trying to act as though she hadn’t noticed the way they glanced at her from time to time. Cynthia, one of Anastacia’s friends, leaned forward with a knowing glint in her eyes. “Anna, you didn’t come with our in-law?” she asked, her tone dripping with sarcasm and mockery, her smile wide enough to let Anastacia know she was baiting her. “Cynthia!” Dorothy scolded sharply, rolling her eyes in irritation. “Must you always start trouble the moment she arrives?” Mirian, another of Anastacia’s friends, cleared her throat in an awkward attempt to diffuse the tension, while Paul shifted uncomfortably in his seat, his jaw tightening as he gr
Chapter 239 : The Dinner
Anastacia was sitting in the living room on her laptop, fingers lazily tapping across the keyboard as she scrolled through unread emails and half-finished tasks. Her phone vibrated beside her, lighting up with Dorothy’s name. She picked up, already knowing what the call was about. Dorothy, ever the timekeeper, was calling to remind her of their monthly dinner scheduled for later that night. It was the routine dinner held by her former classmates, a tight-knit circle that had evolved into business partners over the years. They created the club to stay connected and build stronger networks, mixing social bonding with subtle business talk. Anastacia had been a part of it from the start—before her life spiraled into unwanted headlines and whispered gossip."Dorothy," she muttered under her breath and picked the call."Hey Stacia ! You didn’t forget our dinner tonight, right?"Anastacia hesitated, her fingers frozen above the keyboard. "Dorothy... I thought it was next weekend."Doroth
