Chapter 95
Katherine practically floated around her penthouse, pouring herself a glass of champagne to celebrate her unexpected victory. The two million dollar contract from Morgan Group had completely transformed her mood from vindictive rage to euphoric satisfaction."Darling, this is wonderful!" she exclaimed to Faye, who remained seated stiffly on the designer sofa. "Just like old times! We make such a good team when we work together instead of against each other!""I'm glad you're happy," Faye replied flatly, making no effort to hide her disdain."Happy? I'm ecstatic! Two million annually for consulting work I could do in my sleep! And the best part is, now we can put all that unpleasant business behind us. Water under the bridge, as they say!""Is that what you think this is? Us being friends again?"Katherine's smile faltered slightly. "Well, yes. I mean, we've both gotten what we wanted. You protected your precious Yemin, and I got my contract. Everyone wins!""Katherine, the only reason
Chapter 94
Faye sat in her car outside Katherine's penthouse building, her hands trembling as she rehearsed the devastating news she had to deliver. Marcus's refusal had left her with no leverage against Katherine's blackmail, and she knew exactly how vindictive her former friend could be when thwarted.Katherine opened her apartment door with an expectant smile that quickly faded when she saw Faye's expression."Well? Did you get me the contract?" Katherine demanded, ushering Faye into her luxurious living room."Katherine, I tried. I really did. But Marcus Chen refused. He said your business reputation makes it impossible to justify—""He refused?" Katherine's voice rose to a dangerous pitch. "You went to the CEO of Group A and couldn't even secure a simple contract for an old friend?""It's not that simple! Katherine, these people have standards, criteria—""Standards? Criteria?" Katherine shrieked, her face flushing with rage. "I don't care about their precious standards! You promised me a d
CHAPTER 93
Faye stormed through the glass doors of Group A's headquarters, her heart pounding with a mixture of desperation and determination. Katherine's threat echoed in her mind, and she knew she had limited time before the vindictive woman made good on her promise to contact Blackwood.The receptionist looked up with practiced courtesy. "Good morning. How may I help you?""I need to see Marcus Chen immediately. Tell him it's Faye Langford, and it's urgent.""Do you have an appointment, Ms. Langford?""No, but please tell him it's about Yemin Morgan. He'll understand the urgency."Within minutes, Faye found herself being escorted to Marcus's executive office. The speed of the response shocked her - she had expected to wait hours or even days for a meeting with someone of Marcus's stature.Marcus stood as she entered, his expression serious and concerned. "Ms. Langford, please sit down. What's this about Yemin?""Mr. Chen, I need your help with something that might sound unusual, but it's crit
CHAPTER 92 PART 2
Meanwhile, across the city, Yemin sat in the back of Thomas's luxury sedan as they approached the towering glass headquarters of Ashford Industries. The building stretched forty-three stories into the sky, its modern architecture a testament to the business empire his father had built from nothing.I haven't been here since I was sixteen, Yemin thought, watching the familiar structure grow larger through the tinted windows. Before everything changed, before the organization destroyed my family.Thomas sat beside him, fidgeting with nervous excitement as he reviewed notes he had obviously memorized from fraudulent research about the Ashford family history."Are you nervous, sir?" Yemin asked, playing his role as the devoted servant."Nervous? Nonsense!" Thomas replied, though his voice carried a slight tremor. "This is my birthright, my destiny. I've been preparing for this moment my entire life."You've been preparing for three months, you fraud, Yemin thought bitterly.As their car p
CHAPTER 92 PART 1
Katherine stepped closer to Faye in the dimly lit parking garage, her eyes gleaming with the fervor of someone who had finally found leverage in a dangerous game.The business card trembled slightly in her perfectly manicured hand as she waved it like a weapon."Don't you dare try to play innocent with me, Faye," Katherine hissed, her voice echoing off the concrete walls. "I know you recognize this symbol because I took that ring from your purse months ago. The patterns are identical!"Faye's heart hammered against her ribs as she struggled to maintain her composure.Yemin's warnings about staying away from the investigation rang in her ears, but Katherine's aggressive confrontation had trapped her in exactly the situation he had tried to prevent."I don't know what you're talking about, Katherine," Faye replied, but her voice lacked conviction. "That ring was just jewelry. Nothing more.""Bullshit!" Katherine snapped, her refined facade completely crumbling. "You're part of this, are
CHAPTER 91 PART 2
"Master Alexander has been in a strange mood all evening. Excited about something. He wants to see you first thing in the morning."The next morning, Yemin found Thomas pacing excitedly in his study, his wife seated nearby with a satisfied smile on her face. Both of them looked flushed with anticipation, as if they had just received life-changing news."Mike! Perfect timing!" Thomas exclaimed as Yemin entered. "I have wonderful news to share.""Yes, sir?""I've decided to accelerate my timeline. Tomorrow, I'm going to the Ashford Industries headquarters to meet with the CEO officially. It's time to claim my rightful position as head of the family business!"Unbelievable, Yemin thought with disgust. He nearly died from poisoning, and he's still pushing forward with this fraud."That sounds... ambitious, sir," Yemin replied carefully. "Are you certain you're ready for such a big step so soon after your illness?"Thomas waved dismissively. "Nonsense! If anything, the incident has made me
