“Why are you in my skin, Malcolm?! Why are you trying to be rude to my friend?!” Zoe yelled at Malcolm the moment they got to a corner far from the banquet hall which she felt was secure enough.

Her eyes took time to look around and study if there was no one coming or no cameras around, before she pulled him into another segregated hallway that led to a private balcony.

“That is your friend? The one you have been talking to since all these days?” Malcolm spoke as soon as he saw that she was done checking over and over again to be sure no one had followed them.

In a way, it pained his heart to see if that was how badly she wanted no one to know that they were nothing but business partners. Weren't they what they really were?

“Yeah? Is that a problem?” She cocked a derisive brow at him, her guts patiently waiting for him to utter any word out of place so she would set a boundary immediately.

‘Trying to pretend like they would always be on good terms was harder than she thought!’ Z

  • After Divorce, I Became A Multi-Billionaire   Ch 0287

    Driving softly and calmly through the highway of the city in the early hours of the morning, Malcolm's mind continued to drift at the deepest part of the sea of his thoughts, which was threatening to drown him. The ones he wanted to never think about anymore, but haunted his head relentlessly since the day before. He remembered how everyone had stepped out of the meeting room with regret after tides had turned against them, with each person planning in their hearts how to beg, pull out, or run because they knew he would be out to draw blood for their cheap betrayal. The new dual class system Justine suggested during the meeting ruined everything for them the more. However, that wasn't even the most eroding issue that overwhelmed his heart with sadness and anger at the same time. It was the suffocating, unbelievable moment when he had to stand before his mother after the meeting had ended. The moment everyone had left, leaving just the two of them.Malcolm couldn’t shake her face off

    Ivy had watched her mother, who didn't know she was watching, tidy up everywhere, clean her face, and act like she hadn't even come into the room at all. She also had to remain in the study till her mother left, leaving her dad's body, cold on the floor, and plan her tactical exit without alerting the motion sensors, before she got to where she could turn it off, also acting like she had not been there.That night was hell. The head maid was the one who discovered him the next morning, and things spiralled so fast when Malcolm came home after hearing his father was dead. It was tough for everyone in the family because he was so convinced that his father could not have tripped and fallen. Unfortunately, Mill didn't have any CCTV cameras in his room, and somehow, the CCTV footage of that night disappeared because of a spontaneous malfunction that occurred. The head maid was held responsible and detained for weeks.The missing CCTV footage, and absence of eyewitness messed up with the

    Isla Meyer had sneaked into her father's bedroom when the head maid entered his room that evening to clean the place, unknown to her that her father was returning that night, which was why the place, which had been so guarded, was suddenly let open. She had successfully duplicated his fingerprint by making a mold of it by dusting his prints off his coffee mug for months already, which was what she used to open the metallic door to his study. She was also sure that the motion sensors would miss her if she was right on time when the housekeeper stepped out of the room. All she wanted to do was figure out where he kept his will. The very one his lawyer had brought to him for corrections a few days before his traveling, that she witnessed. She wanted to find it, know what was in it, and figure out what was in store for her, and how she would turn the tide for her good. Knowing where he had most of his However, Isla got more than she bargained for when she suddenly heard the doors to t

    The night after Malcolm was officially announced as the CEO, went so quiet and cold, as everyone returned home after the inauguration party almost immediately, barely waiting for highlights of the after-party. The mood at the Meyers mansion was so heavy, and everywhere became so still and silent, even if it should have been bubbling with merriment. Things remained the same even after days had passed, and it was as if the ambiance around would suffocate everyone, because their cohabitation in the mansion suddenly felt so forced. With Malcolm fully back home, he rarely ate at the dining table with them or talked to anyone, and buried himself in office work, barely coming home. Somehow, he was planning to slowly withdraw himself from the family and live alone because that was the only way he could find peace for the first time in his life. However, things took a crazy turn the night Mill died, barely a month after his inauguration. The craziest night of all where things went so wrong

    Isla had so many questions in her head, and she could barely process them, as she remained still frozen where she sat, her lungs tightening so hard. Her thoughts were jammed like traffic in a heavy storm.‘She was not Mill’s biological child. Andre wasn’t either. Only Malcolm and Ivy!’ her heart plummeted, as her brain registered it again, while alternating between larva hot and icy cold. Her head threatened to expand and burst open because the shock was too much for it to bear.‘Did her father know too? Did he know all along that they weren’t his?!’ She trembled in fear, barely breathing, when she realized again that the man she had called her father wasn’t hers.‘No. Then he would not have expected so much from Andre. He would not have been so disappointed in him over and over, while trying to train him for the conglomerate,’ she tried to console herself, hoping that somehow he wouldn’t know. That he would never know.‘And from the way her mother spoke, it didn't seem like he should

    Isla recollected everything like yesterday. How she had been planning since she was a teenager, how she knew so much, and now she was at the center of most malevolent things that had gone on in the Meyers family. It wasn't her fault, though. It has never been because that wasn't who she was in the first place. She had just been a normal young child, who was the second out of four kids, and was the first female. Like every kid her age, she wanted love and attention from her parents, even if she wasn't so warm. She wanted to be acknowledged , even if she wasn’t the kindest.However, everyone around her labeled her as abnormal. They said she had zero social skills, no emotional intelligence, and lacked sympathy. They called her apathetic. Most times, she was the girl who sat alone, not because she was reserved, but because she didn’t need anyone. She laughed at things that hurt others, always wanted what belonged to others and hurt them for it, and also never agreed with what seemed t

    Audrey struggled for breath as she began to tap his hand, which was already restricting the airflow from her lungs, and it was as if his eyes burned with more anger because the veins of his hands popped out more visibly.Without thinking too much, she raised the pointed tip of the shoe she was wearing as she positioned her hands firmly, on the railings for support. With a force, while struggling hard to breathe, she sent a kick to the middle of his legs. The pain caused Andre to groan as he instantly snatched his hand from her neck and grabbed his crotch in pain, which made it easy for Audrey to instantly spring forward instead of falling over because of the force he had used to shove her against the railings. Immediately, she dialed Zoe's number as fast as she could on her escape, as she scurried away from where Andre almost choked the life out of her, her ragged breaths uneven, and her heart beating so fast. Momentarily lost for the right words to say as soon as Zoe picked up Aud

    SIX MONTHS AGO. Audrey had worn a camel-colored dress that day on Irina's birthday to celebrate freedom, and her imminent moment of final escape from the Meyers. From her ruthless husband's family, her miserable life and family problems- the major reason why she was still stuck in the stupid marriage. Her room back in the mansion had been cleared to an extent of all the things she needed, and arranged perfectly in a way that it might take a while to suspect a thing from just a mede glance. Smuggling her luggage out had been the easiest. It had been tactically towed to a storage company earlier that day, in new garbage bags that didn't even make anyone question. She had executed the plan perfectly, during the busy hours of the day in the mansion, while everyone was trying to make Irina's birthday party a perfect one and were all distracted. She had withdrawn Aaron from school, hidden him in a safe place in the guise of school camp, and had planned everything perfectly. It was only

    Andre barely slept a wink all night. He was so restless, and his mind roamed aimlessly. Nothing was working for him. Nothing. And yet, he just continued to fall into more problems and debts. Yes, debts. While he was busy faking his death in the country he was living while his mother sponsored his lifestyle, he spent most of his time gambling in a casino. Returning to California, he continued codely in high-end clubs for elites, and had lost his savings in just a few months after placing a costly bet during one of his usual gambling days. The slush funds that was secretly siphoned from the MEL-CO oil and gas was meant to help him get back on his feet, but Malcolm caught on fast and blocked it mercilessly. Since then, he had been pressed for money and was desperate. He didn't know what was going to work out at the moment, but he needed a large amount of money to settle the private loans he took. Selling his shares was not an option because he would lose everything. Asking his moth
