123. Selling Off Froston Empire
Elena drove like a storm was chasing her. On the way, she had already sent messages to the remaining board members, invoking the clause in their contracts that allowed them to demand refunds for their shares.By the time she arrived, they were already gathering.Stepping out of her car, Elena paused, her eyes locked on the gleaming structure before her—the Froston Empire building. The empire she had poured her blood and soul into. The same empire she was now being forced to let go of... just to save herself.Tears brimmed in her eyes, hot and bitter. She still couldn’t believe it had come to this. Selling her life’s work to survive.But survival comes first, she reminded herself, blinking back the tears and straightening her shoulders.Inside, a few employees offered weak, hesitant greetings.“Good afternoon, Ma’am,” one mumbled.Others avoided eye contact altogether, pretending she wasn’t there.She didn’t respond. Her heels echoed down the marble hallway as she marched to the boardr
122. A Plan To Sell Froston Empire
It wasn't even up to ten minutes after Elena was dropped off at the hospital, Franco also landed. He stepped down from his car and walked straight to the ward where Rita was admitted.Getting there, he also saw Elena who had just arrived.Still hiding behind the walls, Franco saw Elena pushing the doctor off, her finger pointing straight to his face. “I heard you are the same Neurologist who refused to give treatment to my mother! Do you want her to die?”The Neurologist, Mr Arya Shark, tried to act like he was right. He spoke so coolly. “You have to calm down, Mrs Froston!”“I refused to calm down, Mr Doctor!” Elena screamed, scattering the table beside her. “I refuse to calm down and hear what you have to say. If you want me to stay calm, then you have to go in there and start operating on my Mother!” Mr Shark shook his head, objecting to Elena's threat. “I am sorry to disappoint you, Miss Froston, but your mother's condition is beyond medical care. All she needs right now is divi
121. Another Debt
Elena’s world was already crumbling. She stood there, completely devastated. Even when everyone was calling out her name to exit the premises, she refused to step even an inch away. Edgar had to quickly come out and save Rita who was lying unconscious on the floor. After rescuing Rita, Edgar rushed out to Elena, running as fast as he could to save her from the heavy pillar which was about to fall on her. Before the pillar could land on Elena, Edgar pulled her off. Yelling “It’s obvious you want to die, isn’t it?” Elena shook her head, tears dropping from her eyes. “I deserve to die, Edgar!” She yelled. “What’s the essence of being alive when I have lost almost everything which makes me happy?” She turned to her mother who was still lying unconscious. “My mother. My company. Even my properties! Tell me, Edgar. What’s the essence of being alive when I will just end up getting in so much pain?” Edgar nodded with what Elena said, wiping the tears dropping from her eyes. “You have t
120. Elena's Worst Nightmare
Elena's breath hitched mid-sentence as she stepped back as if she'd been slapped. Edgar got up immediately to find out what had happened but she refused to say anything to him.Only looking, blinking rapidly and shaking her head in disbelief.“Are you hearing me, Elena?” Rita dragged her daughter's attention once more.Elena took in some sharp breaths before speaking hastily. “How did this happen, Mother? Who are they to demolish our house and under what ground do they have to do that?” Rita yelled over the phone. “What the heck is your problem, Elena? You can't stay there and ask me all manner of questions which I don't have answers to. You have to get back here and hear what they are saying. I can't afford to lose this house. In fact, this Villa! Because it is worth a total of $2.8 Billion!”Elena grabbed her bag quickly. “I will be there in no time Mother. Find a place to hide. Don't allow them hurt you!” She pushed the chair off for her exit but Edgar held her back. “What is th
119. The Fake Relationship Contract
“Yes!” Elena responded, bringing out some documents from her bag. “I want us to be in a fake relationship for some months. Take a quick review of this document!”She handed him the documents, her eyes locked on his. “It is clearly stated in that document that every month, you will be paid $30 million for being in a relationship with me. That's just to show how much interested I am to straighten things with you!” Edgar glanced through the documents, his eyes still blazing in suspicion. He doubted the capability of Elena to pay him such a huge amount of money these days. He just had to do it regardless. Because the money is huge. It can help take care of his family which he left in Dubai. Yes, he got married to Maya months ago after breaking up with Elena. Things aren't going smoothly for them as they even found it very difficult to feed. But with this contract in place, he has no option but to accept it.As Edgar thought about this, Elena tapped her fingers on the table twice to dra
118. Edgar's Comeback!
Elena looked up at Franco who smirked at her, implying she went ahead with the call.Rita noticed how strange Elena was staring so she had to ask. “Is anything the problem? Why are you looking at him like that? Is he Edgar or is Edgar related to him in any way?” “No, Mother!” Elena responded, coming closer to her mom. “You see, Mother. Edgar is not in a good condition to answer a phone call. Why don't we go home first? The Villa can always wait. You will get it anytime you want!”Rita examined her face closely before saying. “Are you sure about that?” Elena sat closely beside her. “Yes, Mother. I am sure of what I am saying. Edgar will be here in two days. Same with Maya. She wanted to come over but the nature of her job. She couldn't”“Alright then. I will just wait for them to return. But I won't take any more excuses from any of them after a week!”Elena grinned and helped her mother lay back. “I will quickly meet the nurse so that they can state your bill. Once we clear them, yo
