Gina was boiling, anger shone in her eyes and her hatred for Kai showed in every other part of her body but Kai only remained calm as he stared at her.

Though they were nominally engaged, this was really just a marriage arrangement between the Benson and Murphy families.

But ever since Jake had returned to the Benson family, Gina had grown close to Jake, deceived by his hypocrisy, and frequently criticized Kai.

Before Jake’s arrival, she had always shown great affection for Kai and Kai on the other hand had once hoped to change her but he changed his mind after seeing that she was beyond redemption.

“Did you really steal from the Benson family and beat Jake, who hasn’t done anything to you by the way, up?” She sneered as she asked.

Kai didn’t need to say anything because he knew that Gina wouldn’t believe anything that came out of his mouth as she would always believe Jake over him.

“Did Jake tell you that himself?” Kai responded to her question with one of his own and Gina only glared at him, her eyes throwing daggers at Kai.

He didn’t want to argue with her at all, he had an air of indifference around him and there weren’t any signs of amusement in his eyes as he stared at Gina.

He only wished that she would just disappear from his sight but he knew how far-fetched that was considering the fact that she worked here.

To Gina, Kai was being nothing but a nuisance, constantly letting his jealousy for Jake take over and control him but Kai didn’t care about what she thought of him.

“Of course, Jake told me.” Gina finally answered Kai’s question and Kai scoffed. Jake had been feeding not just the Benson family but also Gina lies and there was nothing much he could do about it.

Putting his hands in his pockets, his calm demeanor seemed to anger Gina so much that her stomach churned just being in front of him.

She wanted him to disappear, she wanted to throw him out of the lobby or even the company in general but she had questions that she wanted him to answer.

“What the hell is going on with you?” She asked and Kai raised an eyebrow in confusion, “why are you letting such ugly and vile feelings fester into you?” She added.

“Why are you being so petty and jealous of Jake ever since his return?” She demanded and Kai couldn’t believe his ears but he remained silent.

“You do horrible things to him and yet he has never for once retaliated,” she went on, “Jake was always speaking so highly of you whenever we were together, why are you trying so hard to bring him down?” She added.

Kai only sighed, running his fingers through his hair as he pinched the bridge of his nose and let out an even heavier sigh.

He wanted to get away from Gina’s yapping but he had to wait for Catherine since he doesn’t really know his way around the building.

“Why can’t you learn how to be kind and excellent from Jake, why can’t you learn how to be selfless and respectful from him, huh?” She added.

“In the past, you only seemed to be petty and unable to accept that I was being so close to Jake, but now, you’ve made a name for yourself as a thief and a bandit!” Gina spat and Kai only sneered.

He was still keeping his cool and remaining silent while Gina continued saying condescending and horrible things to him.

He was disappointed in her, utterly disappointed because he realized that it wasn’t him Gina loved, but rather the heir of the Benson family—Jake, the biological son.

“Are you only willing to believe every single thing Jake tells you and not what I say?” He asked, his voice was cold and totally void of emotion.

He raised an eyebrow as he waited for an answer, he was almost willing to give her a second chance but she bursted out laughing sarcastically.

“Did you just ask me that?” Gina retorted as she mocked Kai, “of course I’m going to believe everything Jake says without doubting him for a moment.” She answered firmly.

“Jake is such a kind and sincere person, while you are nothing but a petty, little liar!” She spat, her fist clenching as she glared at him.

“I can’t believe you,” she continued, “how obsessed do you have to be that you even secretly followed me to Rainbow corporation just to cause trouble.” She snarled.

“SECURITY! I WANT YOU TO THROW THIS NUISANCE OUT!” She yelled before Kai could say anything and the security guards soon started rushing closer.

Kai remained calm even as the men stood behind him, he was being humiliated but since he knew that they wouldn’t be able to do anything to him soon, he only smiled.

“Let me make sure I’m getting things right,” he smiled as he looked into Gina’s eyes, reading her facial expression and intimidating her with his presence.

“Does this mean that you’re breaking up with me, you’re breaking off our engagement and don’t want anything to do with me anymore?” He asked and Gina laughed.

She thought that the question was ridiculous because it was clear what she was trying to do, she doesn’t want Kai, Jake is the one she wants so why is he asking her ridiculous questions?

“We should’ve broken up and broken off this relationship long since Jake returned,” she answered firmly, her mind made up.

“Because I only intended to marry the true heir of the Benson family, not you, a mere imposter.” She mocked, laughing at Kai and taking a step away from him.

The security guards were ready to carry out Gina’s orders because they knew her and knew nothing about Kai and to them, Kai was an intruder.

“Sir, you have to leave right now or we would be forced to use force on you and that would be humiliating.” One of the men said and the other joined in.

“We’re going to have to throw you out of here.” The other said and just at that moment, a cold voice rang out, resonating through the air.

“LET’S SEE WHO DARES!” The voice yelled coldly and everyone turned in the direction of the voice to see that it was the company’s CEO, Catherine!

    Her body betrayed her, her nipples peaked, and even though this was the last thing she wanted, she couldn’t help but feel like she needed more from this stranger that had not only just invaded her privacy, but also fingered her until she came, and now, he’s making her lick his fingers. “P—Please.” She slurred, her eyes rolling back and forth, almost as though it was telling her that it wouldn’t stay open for long. She tried to fight him off of her again, but yet again, she failed. “Look at you,” He snarled as he kissed her, tasting her pussy juice on her mouth. “You’re such a fucking little whore. You deserve this! You want this!” His voice was getting progressively louder with each word that came out of his mouth. She looked up at him, and fear gripped every part of her being.

    Zarus looked from Zane to Fabio, then to Kai and then back at Zane before letting out a sigh that reverberated through the whole room. Zane’s brow furrowed as he frowned, he was stressed. He knew for sure that Fabio was right, and at the end of the day he would have to deal with the issue. He would have to deal with it right from the root, but at the same time, there was something about admitting there was a rot that doesn’t sit quite right with Zane. “Fine.” He sighed, running his fingers through his hair. “Everywhere I turn, I feel like the odds are against me. Did I commit some sort of sin?” He asked, the question was directed at Fabio who simply laughed. “Not really,” Fabio responded amidst laughter. “You don’t have to worry about anything much, I know you’re going to deal with it because thankfully, dealing with rots and turning the odds in your favor is something you seem to be exceptionally good at.” The room was quiet, the silence was almost deafening as the words of

    Jake looked at his sister for a moment, she was smiling in that kind of way that told him that she had something in mind, and he would have stopped it if she wasn’t being suspicious.His contact was also pestering him about some new information, apparently, they needed to have all they needed before they could make their final move so that they wouldn’t Jace someone interfering with their plan.“You look like you have a plan.” Jake asked, making sure that there is a hint of concern and vulnerability in his voice that would be enough for Lila to drop her guard a little bit.All he needed was the green light. “What’s the plan? Is it something I can help with?” He sighed, running his fingers through his hair as he stared at his sister—he really looked at her.“I’m worried about you, and not just you, I’m worried about Nora and Rebecca too. Do you know how long it’s been since we last saw Rebecca?” He asked.Lila didn’t say anything, but her face fell in a way that indicated that Jake had

    Nora’s eyes fluttered open, and pain bloomed in every part of her body. Her head still ached, her vision blurred, but she knew she was alive.She tried to go over what happened in the past days, but she couldn’t get past when someone—or something, had asked to lend her body, and since they both had a common enemy, she had let it.Closing her eyes, Nora managed to let out a groan that got Lila’s attention. Lila’s eyes flew open, and she looked to see that her sister was awake.There was a part of her that was glad that Nora made it through, and there was another part of her that felt guilty for the lie she told Jake, and because of that lie, they were now in debt to some loan sharks.Shaking that thought out of her mind, she made up her mind not to think about it as long as she was fine. “Nora!” She called, getting to her feet and looking at her sister.“Nora, how are you feeling?” She asked, and ironically, she did care about how her sister was feeling at the moment.“Fine.” Nora’s vo
