Chapter 10: The Poisoned Trap The next day, Roseline was sitting in the quiet corner of a restaurant at a hotel, waiting for Robert's arrival. He had agreed to meet her just like Tracy had said he would.She looked at the message she had sent to him, and a smile began to form, but she bit down on it.“Roseline.” Robert’s voice called.Roseline’s head snapped up in surprise, she had not even seen or heard him walk up to her.“Robert.” She said.“You wanted to meet, what is this about?” Robert asked, he was still standing.“Please sit down Robert.” she said, and when he wouldn’t budge she quickly added, “This would not take long at all.” Finally Robert sat down reluctantly.“I have ordered wine, I hope you don’t mind sharing a drink with me?” Roseline asked.“Why did you want to meet, Roseline?” Robert asked, ignoring her own question.“Well a lot has happened between us in the past days, but most importantly, we have each found our own standing and partners too.” she stopped, and Rob

Chapter 9: Rage Over the RuinsMeanwhile the Browns were still in shock from what they had witnessed. It had been just days ago when Robert was thrown out of their house and their lives.Tracy had insulted him, Roseline threw the divorce papers in his face, and Eric bloodied his nose. But, in just a matter of days, his entire life seemed to have changed. He moved with elite people, and he even dined with Eliana Rowe like it was nothing at all.“What must have happened?” Tracy asked Roseline.“I have no idea.” Roseline answered absentmindedly.“What do you mean you have no idea? He was your husband.” Tracy argued.“Well just in case you have forgotten, he was my husband just in name. I never really gave much care to the things he did.” Roseline said, running her fingers through her hair.“So just when we threw him out, he fell into a pile of money, and met Eliana Rowe?” Tracy asked much to herself as to Roseline.“Look, I don’t know, okay? I am just as surprised as you are!” Roseline s

Chapter 8: The Dawn of RetributionIt had been fun to see Roseline and Tracy’s face all through the night. In fact, all of the guests present couldn’t believe what they were seeing. The rejected, penniless Robert, now dancing with literal royalty.Robert got satisfaction from seeing their faces, maybe being with Eliana Rowe wasn’t really a bad idea. She didn’t seem to control him, she had been ready to leave without him when he told her he had not intended to go to the party with her.“Young master, you have a call.” Gregory said, pulling Robert from his reverie.“Who is it?’ He asked.“It’s from the hospital.” Gregory answered.Robert grabbed the phone quickly, standing on his feet.“Robert Cruise here.” He spoke into the receiver.“Right. We are calling to inform you about your sister.” The voice said.“What about it? Did something happen to her?” He asked, his nerves jangling.“Calm down Mr. Cruise, everything went well and your sister is out of coma.” The voice replied.Robert let

Chapter 7: The Golden Ticket of RevengeInside one of the York family’s penthouse, Gregory Lane stood before Robert Cruise with his hands behind his back.“You said you would get me an invitation card to the Brown’s party,” Robert spoke slowly.Gregory lowered his head. “I tried everything I could, Young Master. But the guest list has been closed for weeks. Only direct family, elite investors, and VVIPs were given physical cards. Without an invitation, security will not let you through the gate.”“Then make one.”Gregory shook his head. “Every guest must have an original gold-inlaid card with a serial number and security chip. It cannot be forged or duplicated.”Robert turned away, clenching his fists at his side. The thought of Roseline engaging another man while he did nothing filled him with rage. He had to be there and show them who he was now.“I need to look Roseline in the eyes,” Robert said. “The Vaughn will be there too. If I don't understand my enemies, I cannot fight them.”

Chapter 6: Guilty ConscienceEliana stared at the torn marriage contract lying scattered on the ground. She hadn’t said a word since Robert ripped the papers, but her silence spoke louder than any argument.“You made your choice, Robert,” she said, finally almost disappointed. “But I hope you understand what this means. Evelyn and her son won’t stop attacking you.”Robert met her gaze. “I don’t need your contract to defend myself. I’ll fight my own battles. Get out!”Eliana’s lips curled into a faint smile. “We’ll see, Robert. You’re nothing without me, whether you like it or not.”She walked out of the hospital and entered into her car. The Maybach disappeared into the street, leaving Robert standing alone in the hallway.Jenna was safe for now, but the war was just beginning. Evelyn, the Browns, and now Vincent Carter all thought he was nothing. They were wrong.His phone buzzed in his pocket. It was Gregory. Robert answered quickly.“Young Master,” Gregory’s voice was steady but ur

Chapter 5: A New Breath of LifeThe Maybach moved silently through the streets of New Coast. Robert sat beside Eliana in the front seat, staring out the window as the high-rises blurred past. His mind wasn’t on the skyline, it was on the safety of his sister.“Have you transferred the money?” he finally asked.Eliana didn’t look away from the wheel. “It was sent the moment we left the restaurant. The hospital’s billing system should already be cleared. I told you, Robert. I keep my promises.”Robert nodded slowly, still not ready to relax. After so many disappointments, trusting anyone, especially someone tied to his past was like walking blindfolded across a minefield. But he didn’t have time to second-guess.Minutes later, the car pulled up to the hospital’s private entrance. Robert stepped out before Eliana could turn off the car, practically jogging through the glass doors. Eliana followed at a calmer pace through the hallway.Inside, a nurse at the front desk looked up and immedi
