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 236 : The Trouble continues
After Andrew got a VVIP when others couldn't get it, the tension in the room shifted. The people who had mocked him earlier fell into stunned silence, unsure whether to feel jealous, suspicious, or humiliated. The VVIP wasn’t just a place you threw money at to get into—it demanded reputation, discretion, and a certain unspoken credibility that couldn't be faked, forged, or finessed. Even those with political clout or old money had been denied that access. It required more than money to gain entrance to. You had to be someone, not just act like someone. The moment Andrew stepped through those velvet ropes with Anastacia walking beside him, a ripple of whispers swept across the main lounge. Her friends wore forced smiles, eyes burning with curiosity and contempt. They had spent years trying to gain access, and this low-life husband of hers got in like it was nothing. That was enough to bruise fragile egos and awaken deeper rivalries.There was a game going on inside the VVIP—a bet
Chapter 235 : Fake Voucher
This was the moment they had quietly longed for. They had all sat there in their pretentious designer clothes, sipping on overpriced wine they could barely afford, barely able to conceal their anticipation for the humiliation they were convinced was about to unfold.How would Anastacia’s low-life husband come up with two million dollars?The laughter was restrained, but the mockery sat boldly behind their eyes. Andrew had no pedigree, no family name, no visible wealth—just an aura they couldn’t place and manners that didn’t fit their narrative. Deep down, they wanted to see him break. They needed him to prove them right. They needed a scene.Dorothy adjusted her necklace as though preparing for a toast. Paul leaned back in his seat, arms crossed like a judge awaiting the final plea. It was subtle, but the tension in the air was begging for embarrassment. They wanted Andrew to fumble, to sweat, to pull out a debit card and have it declined.But then Andrew reached into his jacket and
Chapter 234: Guilt trip
Anastacia had no choice but to oblige her friends’ demands. She didn't want to, but saying no would raise suspicion. If Andrew had been someone influential—a man with pedigree, a last name that made heads turn—she wouldn’t have waited to be told before proudly dragging him to their table. But Andrew’s case was different. He was a nobody. Not from a notable family, not the owner of any business. Nothing about him screamed success. Just a desperate man who married her for the sake of leeching off her family’s fortune. That’s what she told herself. That’s how she justified the disgust bubbling in her chest. To her, he was a disgrace. An unwanted shadow tied to her name. Nothing more. Still, with measured steps and a hollow expression, she walked toward Andrew’s table. This was going to be unpleasant, but backing out would make it worse.She tapped him on the shoulder to get his attention. “My friends want you to come join us at our table,” she said, the words sliding off her tongue with
Chapter 233: Husband Of The Year
That word—“husband”—annoyed Anastacia to the brim. But she still maintained a calm demeanor and tried to keep her cool. She wouldn't give them the satisfaction of seeing her break down, not now, not ever. She took a controlled breath, fingers curling beneath the table as her painted nails pressed lightly into her palm. She could already feel the judgment thickening in the air like perfume—too sweet, too suffocating. This was the part about this sham marriage that she had dreaded the most—when her friends and the influential people she knew would eventually find out about Andrew. She had rehearsed a dozen versions of this day in her mind, prayed it would stay in the realm of speculation until the quiet, discreet divorce. But now, here it was, thrown on the table like some scandalous appetizer. Eyes were watching. Ears were tuned in. Her armor had to stay intact, flawless, as always. They wouldn’t see her sweat.She had been friends with this group since high school, but deep down she
Chapter 232 : Recognized
“C’mon, it’s not possible that you would know someone like that,” Paul said, his voice edged with disdain as he leaned closer to Dorothy. He lifted his wine glass lazily, swirling the golden liquid inside without taking a sip. His gaze flicked briefly toward the direction Andrew had gone. They had all watched the brief incident that had unfolded between Mirian and Andrew. None of them had commented at first, but their eyes had said enough— even if Andrew wasn't a waiter as Mirain had mistaken him for , he didn't seem far from that .But there was a question lingering through their mind "How did he get a vip pass ? “Who knows, he might have gotten a free invite or something,” Paul said out loud as he smiled without warmth, clearly amused by the idea that someone dressed like that could be allowed in a place like this.“Paul is right. Where do you think you could possibly know someone like that?” Mirian asked dismissively , her voice laced with disdain .Dorothy looked over to Andr
Chapter 231 : One Of Them
“Get me an extra wine glass,” the voice, which belonged to Mirian—one of Anastacia’s friends—ordered again, this time harsher than the first.Andrew didn’t say a word to the lady to clarify that he wasn't a waiter. He didn’t need to. Even a blind man could see that he wasn't wearing the same uniform as the waiters. His outfit—a dark, unbranded polo shirt tucked into plain, well-fitted jeans—stood out against the polished uniform of the restaurant’s waiters. But the woman wasn’t blind. She was being deliberately condescending.Her tone had the sharpness of someone used to belittling strangers. It wasn’t the first time someone mistook him for less than he was, but Andrew didn’t react. He’d learned that silence sometimes hits harder than protest. He stared at her for half a second then turned his face away, impassive. He wasn’t here for drama. Anastacia shifted uncomfortably in her chair as she tried to hide the fury brimming inside her.She was pissed, but not because her friend was
