Nathaniel parked himself back in his leather chair, riding the whiskey that was swirling in his glass while the Manhattan lights gleamed off the floor-to-ceiling windows of his penthouse office. The ringing of his phone on the desk brought with it the name on the screen—William Harper.

He smiled. On time.

Engaging the answering button, he brought the phone to his ear. "Father."

A deep, commanding voice rang over the line. "I hope you've made progress."

Nathaniel chuckled, drinking slowly from his glass. "Headway? Oh, you mean getting infuriating Eliana Thompson so worked up she'll burn alive? Well, I'd say I'm doing superbly."

There was a pause before William went on. "Don't get too cocky, Nathaniel. This is not a joke son. The Thompsons have been in our hair longer than anyone can remember. If you don't take them down, they'll be taking us down."

Nathaniel's smile faltered. His father was always a tough businessman, but there was something different in his voice tonight—desperation.

    Jenny walked the burned streets, her gait heavy and thick, every step reminding her of the broken heart she bore. The world outside was at arm's reach, a haze, as though all that she loved and cared for now became the background hum that no longer carried a message for her. It was like the world kept moving on, but she was stuck in a photograph where time was static.The sound of her heels ringing on the ground echoed throughout the empty streets, her eyes filled with the fresh tears which continued to flow even as she tried to hold them back. She needed to get out, out of the house, out of the fragments of JM, out of everything that reminded her of the pain that she had suffered.She wasn't sure where she was going initially, but when night wind swept around her skin, a reddish light of a rowdy-appearing bar a block distant caught her attention. It wasn't one that she would ever visit normally, but at the moment, she cared little. It was some seedy establishment. Some place no one wo

    Jenny's footsteps echoed down the cold, abandoned street, an echoing sound in contrast to the vibrant city sounds. The air was bitter and cold, but it did not mute the raw ache in her chest. Every breath was a fight, a reminder of the agony that filled her soul. Her heart, once overflowing with belief and hope, was now shattered pieces of it.Tears flowed down her face, blurring the world around her. She didn't mind that her mascara was smeared, that her clothes were damp with the cold air. She didn't mind anything anymore. She had given him everything her heart, her trust, her love and he had discarded her like rubbish.JM Reese, the man who had promised to give her everything, the man who had whispered sweet nothings and assured her she was the only one, had just destroyed it all. He had chosen Eva. The woman always hovering on the fringes, the woman he would never be able to love, and now the woman he had chosen in lieu of Jenny.The lights of the city were blinking, tempting her w

    JM let out a low chuckle, but it was not in the least sincere. He spun all the way around to confront her, his eyes never wavering from hers. "The truth, Jenny?" he mocked. "The truth is that I owe you nothing anymore."Her heart ached at the venom in his words. It was an insult, a worse insult than any betrayal she had dreamed of. She had anticipated cruelty, but this was worse. This was contempt."I gave you everything, JM," Jenny spat, her voice shaking now. "I stood by you when nobody would trust you. When the rumors came out, when people made comments that I was nothing more than your pawn I stuck around. But you. you just left me in the dark. You didn't even do me the decency of an explanation."JM's expression was stone. He advanced towards her, his eyes icy, his eyes dark with something. "I never asked you to be loyal to me, Jenny. You volunteered it. And frankly, I didn't need it. Not then, and not now."The words hit her hard, like a punch in the stomach, but Jenny did not w

    Jenny's Flat – Late At NightThe flat was quiet, apart from the hum of the fridge and the muffled rumble of cars in the road outside. But in the flat, the world seemed to have ended for Jenny.She sat on the edge of her bed, phone clutched in her hand, reading the screen. Her fingers trembled as she scrolled through the dozens of messages, headings flashing in capital letters: JM Reese and Eva Ross: The Power Couple of the Year! JM and Eva: Love at First Sight Photos Exclusive.The photographs seared themselves into her brain, each one worse than the last. Eva, her stunning smile, her arms around JM as if she were his. The way he gazed at her, the way it looked so right. Jenny could watch it all from the position of the paparazzi, and it ripped her apart.She tried to look away, but she couldn't. Images flooded her head like a ceaseless flood. How can he just go on living? How can he do this to me?What really broke her, though, was the lack of an explanation. His silence was worse th

    JM Reese never did care too much about what people thought of him, but by gosh he was good at playing the game. On that rooftop patio, under the hot sun of late afternoon, he sat clasping hands with Eva Ross like the world's most perfectly built power couple. His hand encircled hers, and though their smiles appeared genuine enough, the truth was much more scripted than anyone knew.Eva, in her own irresistible beauty and flawless poise, was the personification of elegance. Everything she did was calculated, choreographed for the world's stage, and she reveled in it. To her, it was a game, a game she was playing to win. And to win was to be in control, something that she'd learned over the years.The cameras clicked around them like a swarm of bees. Flashes illuminated their faces with blinding white light, yet neither flinched. JM settled back in his chair, his typical cocky grin never wavering from his lips as Eva looked at him with a mix of respect and something else something menac

    9:00 A.M.Thompson Enterprises – Executive OfficeSaben leaned against the high-rise windows of his office, the city out there below in silent movement unrestful, indifferent. The sky was that washed-out gray-blue which promised rainstorms. He ignored it.His arms crossed, shoulders slumped. He'd had no coffee. The ancient clock on the wall ticked like a metronome for a never-conducted concert.He wasn't used to waiting.And he damn sure wasn't used to not knowing.But here he was.Waiting.Not for an analyst. Not for a meeting.For her.Though she was still technically on leave. Though Zina had only promised that a representative would be going through her files.He wasn't searching for her.But when the door creaked open with a tentative knock, and he turned—his breath caught.She came.Jenny White.Not over a conference call.Not as a name on an email conversation.In person.And not the woman he remembered.This Jenny was not cocooned in her customary tailored suit of confidence.
