CH ~ 0045 THE NEWS IS OUT
Like an animal being slaughtered, Dexter's blood trickled down the sidewalk. And one could believe he's definitely out of blood to even keep him alive. Slowly, the tall white man stepped on the stairs. One step at a time until he stood in front of Dexter, who was lying on his back, barely alive. He ignored the struggle in Dexter's eyes as he moved close, raised his leg and gently placed it on the edge of the knife that was stuck in Dexter's chest. “How long did you think you could hide your beloved wife from the Empire? You didn't think we were that dumb, did you?” A deadly grin formed on his lips.“D.. don't..” A painful tear rolled from the corner of Dexter's eyes as he looked down at the man's foot on top of the knife in his chest. It all makes sense now… The call…it was a set-up. Roy didn't call him.. it was the empire.. Oh, shit. It has all come to light.. they've all found out he has a wife..He knew he couldn't avoid it for long, but he didn't expect them to find out this so

Ashanti takes the phone from him and answers it without thinking twice. “Hello?”“I'm here at the lobby to pick you up. I just saw Navabi on my way in..she says you're in a meeting. Are you done?” Dexter asked.Ashanti glanced at Mr. Ethan. “I'm done. But just wait out for me, I'll be there in a few minutes.” She uttered before ending the call.She placed her phone into her bag and started parking her files as if ready to leave.Ethan noticed and asked, “Are you going somewhere?”“Yes. I'm done with today's task. Um.. I'm sorry about the food, but I gotta go.” She took a step back and grabbed her black leather jacket.Ethan's eyes searched hers as he stood up. “Who was that?” He asked as though suddenly interested.“My husband. Why?” Ashanti didn't hesitate. She figured it would be best to be open about her marital status, so he doesn't get the wrong impression and also stop hitting on her. Ethan's eyes lit up. “This husband of yours… his name is Dexter?” His tone was filled with cur

Ethan had never been more confused in his entire life. His eyes stayed on Ashanti, studying every twitch of her brows, every flicker in her gaze, as though her words were puzzle pieces he was determined to arrange.Ashanti exhaled, steadying her tone. “After our house was invaded… we were given a new one. Under the Wilson name. We knew it was obviously because of the contract between the two companies.”His head tilted slightly, the faintest crease forming on his forehead. “No… you’re probably mistaken. I’m sorry about your old house, but the new one you think you got from my family..” his voice was low, deliberate, “…it wasn’t from us.”Ashanti blinked, her mouth parting in disbelief. “What… what do you mean?”The memory was sharp in her mind, seeing the property documents, the Wilson name stamped boldly at the top. She had never done business with any Wilson apart from the family she assumed Ethan belonged to. So what was he talking about?“It wasn’t you?” she asked again, almost as

“Welcome to Wilson Group, I'll show you to your office.” Ivan, Dexter's assistant, said and led Navabi to her office. “Thank you.” Navabi smiled and gently took her seat. It was a comfy and large space, befitting her role in the company so perfectly. But it was a little too far from the president's office. His office was on the last floor, while hers is on the 6th. This didn't seem like a good start for her. Just as Ivan was about to leave, Navabi stood from her seat, “Mr. Ivan, I wasn't given the opportunity to see the president today. May I ask if it's possible to see him? Since I'm the operation manager, if I don't get a chance to speak to him on certain matters from now on, I might not be able to handle this position to suit his taste.” She explained softly. Ivan narrowed his eyes at her as though trying to process her words. “Are you saying you can't work effectively without having a word with the president?” Navabi shook her head calmly. “No, I'm just saying it will help ma
