Chapter Sixty Nine: Road to Astray

Chapter Sixty Eight: The Lost Sheep Returns
Bella winced slightly from a sharp pain she had felt at the upper part of her forehead which was plastered. She had thought she was to breath her last “thank God it was just a warning strike” she had heard Spence say when he visited her at the hospital the next day.A mere warning strike! That she almost lost consciousness, what an understatement it was to refer to that as a warning strike. It had been meant to put Ryan Hale in check; unfortunately, she was the victim of it. She adjusted her neon green skirt and put her chin up high, a posture she had mastered in her bid to fool Selena Hale in the past.She entered the front door of Zillow Jade and hundreds of eyes followed her stride, a mixed emotion had filled the air, the bedridden CEO had announced her resignation few weeks ago but here she was, walking in as if she owned the place, the acting CEO Ryan Hale had made it known to the department heads that there was going to be some slight changes, was Bella Connor part of those chan

Even her lawyers were prevented from seeing her which contributed to her misery.“I heard your daughter was prosecuted”, Peter said with mockingly.“And I heard your son barely escaped death”, Alice retorted with a sly smile.“It was a mere warning attack which we plan to take…seriously, I can see you haven`t lost your touch totally, you still have information reaching you”, Pete
