Chapter 95 Drake's eyes fixed on Evelyn's pale face, his mind racing with worry as they rushed her to the hospital. The ambulance sirens blared in his ears, but he barely registered the sound. His heart felt like it was being squeezed in a vise, threatening to burst from his chest.As they arrived at the hospital, Drake's anxiety reached a fever pitch. He paced back and forth in the waiting room, his eyes darting to the door every time it swung open. Mrs. Brown tried to comfort him, but he was beyond consolation."What's taking so long?" he muttered, his voice laced with frustration and fear. "She's been in there for hours. What if... what if something's wrong?"Mrs. Brown placed a gentle hand on his arm. "Drake, the doctor will come soon. Try to stay calm."But Drake couldn't calm down. His mind was a jumble of worst-case scenarios, his imagination running wild with fears for Evelyn's safety and well-being.Finally, the door sw

Chapter 94Drake's eyes never left Viola's face during the video call, but his mind was racing with a plan. He had already sent his secret agent, Alex, to the location Viola had specified, anticipating her demands.As soon as the call ended, Drake swiftly gathered the properties papers and headed out the door, his heart pounding with anticipation. He knew Alex would be in position, ready to strike.Drake arrived at the address, a dilapidated warehouse on the outskirts of town. He took a deep breath, his hand on the papers in his pocket, and stepped inside.The dimly lit space was eerily quiet, the only sound the creaking of old wooden beams. Drake's eyes scanned the area, his senses on high alert.Suddenly, a figure emerged from the shadows. Viola. Her eyes gleamed with triumph, her smile twisted and cruel."Welcome, Drake," she sneered. "I see you brought the papers. How nice of you."Drake's eyes locked onto hers, his

Chapter 92Ava walked alongside her roommate, Sophia, as they left the lecture hall. They were both pre-med students, and the professor had just finished explaining a complex concept in pharmacology.Sophia shook her head, "I didn't understand anything the professor was saying. I'm so lost."Ava smiled patiently, "It's okay, I got it. Let me explain it to you."As they walked to their dorm room, Ava broke down the concept into simpler terms, and Sophia's eyes widened with understanding."Wow, Ava, you're a genius! I don't know what I'd do without you," Sophia said, grateful.Just then, Ava's phone beeped, indicating a video had been sent to her. She hesitated for a moment before opening the message. Her world came crashing down as she saw the video of Gold, her boyfriend, in bed with another girl.Ava's eyes froze on the screen, her mind reeling in shock. She felt like she'd been punched in the gut. Sophia, obliviou

Chapter 91Drake Valentino stepped into his office, his demeanor transforming from romantic to ruthless. His staff greeted him with respect, dressed in crisp business attire, their faces professional. The Valentino Corporation headquarters buzzed with activity, the sleek, modern decor exuding luxury and success."Good morning, sir," his assistant, George, said, approaching him. "Your meeting with the British client is scheduled for now. They're waiting in the conference room.""Very well, George," Drake replied, his voice firm. "Let's get down to business."With George by his side, Drake entered the conference room, his stride confident. The British client, Mr. Johnson, stood up, extending a hand."Good morning, Mr. Valentino," Mr. Johnson said, his accent posh. "A pleasure to finally meet you in person.""The pleasure is mine, Mr. Johnson," Drake replied, shaking his hand firmly. "I trust you're ready to discuss the terms o

Chapter 90Hand in hand, Drake and Evelyn walked into the living room, expecting a quiet morning together. But to their surprise, the servants had prepared a special gift for them. It wasn't something costly, but the thought and effort put into it was priceless."Wow, this is amazing!" Evelyn exclaimed, her eyes widening at the beautifully arranged breakfast spread before them."We wanted to do something special for you both," Mrs. Jenkins said, her eyes shining with warmth. "You deserve it, after all you've been through.""Thank you so much, this is incredible," Drake said, his voice filled with gratitude.As they sat down to enjoy their breakfast, the servants couldn't help but giggle and gossip about the couple."I can't believe how far they've come," Agnes said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Remember when Viola tried to cause trouble between them?""Oh, dear, that was a trying time," Mrs. Jenkins added, shakin

Rose frowned at him but she kept quiet and lay on her side of the bed guarded and wondering why he had suddenly changed his mind again.She let out a deep sigh and wondered how she'll be able to live peacefully with two of her arch enemies under the same roof as her.Rose didn't sleep a wink throughout the night, her thought was occupied with how to settle and fit in into the world again after her reincarnation.And this time around love doesn't exist in her dictionary, she'll do absolutely everything to benefit herself and she's going to use the man who had been staring at her to rise to the top.The almighty has given her a second chance and that's why she was sent to this man and beyond the man's look, there's a mystery that surrounds him.Damon Salvatore too didn't sleep throughout the night, he was seated on his wheelchair and didn't sleep also, his gaze was fixed on Rose and he was watching every of her moves.And he also knew that she was guarded and wasn't sleeping as she wrap

Alec Salvatore didn't know what trouble he had landed in, with a grunt and a displeased glances he left for the kitchen. Rose watched his back with a knowing glint and an amused smile, her prey had come to live under her household and she'll have fun torturing him till she exact her revenge eventually.She walked back to the room ignoring Damon Salvatore's scrutinizing eyes.Damon's eyes darkened slowly and his gray orbs portray his emotions and feelings. Despite having two new people living with him under the same roof, he felt all alone because the two people are only there because of their own selfish motives.And it's good for him to keep them under his watch so he can monitor their moves.“Hey errand boy, I want water.” Damon Salvatore called out, his voice laced with mock as he decided to annoy his prodigal nephew.Alec frowned from the kitchen pondering if he had just heard his uncle called him errand boy?His face was scrunched up in disgust while staring at the unwashed dis

Chapter 12“What!” Alec Salvatore exclaimed loudly with a frown, not believing that Rose would say such things.Wtf! He thought the lady is smitten with him and has fallen for his charm, it seems it's an illusion because the lady standing before him with a knowing smirk on her lips and crossed arms doesn't seem to be affected a bit by him, she's enjoying his misery.Damon Salvatore looked at Rose's smirk with a hidden glint and flickered eyes not understanding her thinking. Now, she's acting nice and caring to Alec and all of a sudden, she threw him from the rug to the floor.He watched Alec Salvatore open and close his mouth nervously with a frown like a fish.Damon also watches Alec cross, wanting to see if he will agree to Rose's demand as Alec is extremely rude, spoiled and egotistic.“Sister….” Rose hasn't let him finish when she cuts in angrily. “Toy call me aunt, I'm married to your uncle, so I'm your aunt and not sister.” Ro

Damon, our nephew seems to be really pitiful. He lost his wife at an early age and had just become a widower and the properties had been snatched away too. He is really pitiful. Please let's shelter him.”Alec'ss perverted gaze landed on the beautiful and fairy-like lady who descended into the room. His eyes then moved lower from her face down to her exposed milky shoulder and now her open cleavage which felt as if it was an invitation to him.He even felt himself getting hard down there which he quickly hid. Almost being caught by the fairy-like lady, he quickly averted his gaze and bit his lower lips in shame. ‘Who the hell was she and what's an endowed and sexy girl like her doing with my crippled uncle?’ Alec thought with a frown, finally taking in the girl's words and recalling that she just called him her nephew.Alec Salvatore almost choked on his spit, the realization hitting him harshly that the gorgeous and wonderfully made creatur

Chapter 10Immediately the door opened and it revealed Alec Salvatore who had a stressed and panic expression.Creases appeared on Damon Salvatore's forehead and his brow furrowed in irritation seeing the arrival of his ambitious and prodigal nephew.He picked the remote immediately wanting to press on close but Alec Salvatore quickly barged into the room, falling flat on the floor in the process. “Uncle, please don't send me out or forsake me, I know I've not been good but please at least hear what I'm about to say.” Alec Salvatore crawled to his uncle's leg and held onto it tightly as he pleaded with an helpless expression.Damon Salvatore knew exactly who Alec Salvatore is and he wasn't even feeling any pity for him so he used his hands to disentangle Alec Salvatore's hand from his leg with a frown.“Stop the drama now and tell me the reason why you're here. I'm very busy and have a wedding night to spend.” Damon Salvatore replied

Chapter 9“Who did you want to take revenge against? Who offended you?” Damon Salvatore asked with a raised brow as he watched her curiously like she's some mystery he needed to solve.‘Earlier it was Stephanie and your little nephew but now you're starting to be included.’ Rose thought with a wicked grin on her lips.“Nothing you should care about.” She retorted with crossed arms, while Damon Salvatore watched her intently, still trying to see through her but he wasn't able to do so.“Alright then if money, power and connection is what you want, you've married the right person who got all that including good looks. In that case I also have my own demand and in exchange for my money, power and connection. This marriage will be strictly for six months and in that main time, I'll supply you with whatever you want and you'll have your revenge on people who betrayed you and after six months we'll happily go our separate ways as I don't want a gold digger a
