Valerie lifted her face and glanced at her mother before muttering. “It's not that easy, Mom." “Dad is the only man you've ever been married to but I've already been with two men and our marriage failed. What makes you think a third marriage would be any better?”"That's if I even find a good man.”"Don't say that again. You will surely find a good man.” Patricia quickly hushed her.“And about Maxwell, you can't count your marriage with him. We both know it was almost like you two were never married." “But we were married and I'm going to count it. It can't completely be ignored since I also signed a marriage license with him.” Valerie quickly retorted and tossed the divorce papers aside before standing up from her bed.With a darkened expression, she walked away from her Mom and went to sit on her dressing table, staring right back at her reflection.She still got her pretty face but she sure looked like someone who had been through a lot.Her face was not as bright as it used to b

"Beat them at their own game by working quietly while plotting their absolute downfall.”"You've taken everything from them and I'm sure that they won't stay quiet for long.” Pablo said calmly before adding.“The Morgans could be down now but I'm sure that they're very dangerous. Don't underestimate them." “Alright. Thank you Pablo." “And you should start going around with bodyguards to keep you safe.” Pablo ended the call afterwards.Maxwell turned to Wyatt and apologized. “I'm sorry about that. I just had to get confirmation on certain things.”"It's ok, Maxwell.” Wyatt responded before thinking to himself.‘It's not just the Morgans you should be wary of, Maxwell. Get ready for what's coming from me’.Wyatt smiled at Maxwell and lifted up his glass of beer. “Cheers to life, friendship and many victories ahead." Maxwell smiled back at him and also lifted his glass. “Cheers." The two friends shared more drinks until they had enough. Maxwell then stood up, he was a little drunk b

Later that evening, Maxwell and his friend Wyatt met up for a few drinks. For the few minutes, the friends stayed silent.The only sounds that was heard were from the other customers who were drinking and chatting.With his gaze fixed on Maxwell, Wyatt took one sip from his glass and carefully placed it on the table.“Why are you giving me that look?” Maxwell finally muttered the question, breaking the awkward silence between them. However, Wyatt only faked a smile before responding.“Tell me the truth, Maxwell. Have you fallen in love with Angel?" Maxwell was taken unawares by the question. He swallowed hard and let out a sigh before giving Wyatt a response.“No. I don't have any feelings for her. So tell me where the question is coming from." “What makes you think that I'm in love with her." “Because you seemed to care a lot about her lately. Do you remember the time I called you and you thought it was that Angel girl.” Wyatt smirked.“I was just worried about her, that's all. Yo

After giving each of them an intense look, Valerie replied to them. “Are you talking about the court case with Maxwell which I did not tell Maurice about.”"Yes. Is that the reason your marriage with Maurice is over?”“No, that's not the reason. It was because Maurice's company was experiencing a big loss. He had to take it out on me and that was how I lost my pregnancy." “But what does it have to do with Maxwell?" “He's the one who targeted Maurice's business and made him go bankrupt." Valerie replied and angrily bit her teeth while seriously fuming.Just in a very short time, she's lost her baby and her marriage. Her parents had also lost all the wealth they owned.Anaya and Silver exchanged glances before sympathizing with her.“We're so sorry about everything that is happening to you." Their sympathy sounded genuine but they really did not feel sorry for Valerie.Some time ago, she was flaunting her good life before them. Unfortunately, things have suddenly changed.Valerie was

Valerie sat with her friends, Silver and Anaya at a different table. They were chatting and having coffee together.Valerie had called them together to complain about the problems she was encountering in her life.She took a sip from her coffee and placed the mug on the table before saying to them.“I can't believe how worse things have gotten for me and my family. Now I have lost my child and my marriage with Maurice is over.”"Everything happened so fast that I can't really comprehend how it happened.While Silver was paying attention to Valerie's complaint, Anaya's gaze was elsewhere.“Is that not Maxwell, your ex-husband and a lady having coffee over there.” Anaya said while pointing towards a direction.She interrupted Valerie's complaints and they all turned to the direction.When Valerie saw Maxwell and Angel, her anger rose and she suddenly began to breathe heavily.“What are they doing here?" She muttered to herself while balling her fists.Valerie had learned the truth about

After Angel dropped the call, she turned to her friend in a very bright smile before saying to her.“The risk I took in abducting myself was worth it. It's already paying off.” Angel announced excitedly before running off to change into something nice.She had planned to go and get her luggage from her apartment later. Since she urgently came to her friend's house the previous night, she had no clothes to change into so Gratel was willing to share her wardrobe with Angel.Angel was soon back to the sitting room in a simple dressing of trousers and shirt.Maxwell only asked her out for a coffee. It's not like they were going for a dinner date.If it was a dinner outing, Angel would surely look her best.“Are you sure you're not going to tell him what truly transpired? You have to tell him the truth or he'd never forgive you if he finds out what you did on his own.” Gratel admonished her but she made a joke out of it."I'm gradually getting him to look my way. What does it matter how I
