Chapter 96

Rhea’s Pov

It was one day to the party and things were busier than ever. The interior designers that were brought made a mistake and we had to start it all from the beginning and the invitations weren't sent out completely. It was a disaster but thankfully, everything had been resolved, even though it was already very late.

After all the designers left, I locked the doors and went outside, took a deep breath then stared at the night sky. It was very breezy.

“Miss Rhea.” One of the security guards I hired came to me, a smile on his face.

“Ah, Mister. I'm sorry for keeping you out until this late. It was not my intention to.” I apologised.

He waved his hands dismissively, “It's not your fault. Also, I could tell how frustrated you were. But everything turned out okay in the end, didn't it?”

“Yes.” I nodded, “It did. I'll entrust the keys to you. Please make sure that no one is able to break into this place. I'm having a bad feeling already.” Immediately I

    Chapter 99Rhea's Pov I woke up with a scream.My eyes snapped open, lungs heaving for air as if I were drowning, and for a moment, I didn’t know where I was. The light above me was soft, golden, not blinding like the camera light. My hands shot up to my throat, expecting fingers wrapped around it, choking me.There was nothing, just air. Yet I couldn't stop the sob that tore out of my chest.“Rhea.”The voice shattered the panic like glass. I turned sharply and saw him sitting beside the bed. Alaric. His eyes were wide, horrified. He reached for me carefully, cautiously, like he was afraid I’d flinch.I didn’t.The moment his arms wrapped around me, I collapsed into them. He held me tightly, rocking me gently like I was something fragile and precious. His hand ran up and down my back in slow, soothing circles, whispering things I couldn’t even process at first. His warmth seeped into my bones, breaking through the numbness that threatened to swallow me whole.“I’m so sorry.” He whis

    Chapter 98Rhea's Pov “What’s so funny?” Kenneth asked.I took a deep breath, composing myself. I tilted my head and smiled as I looked around, “This… this is the big plan, isn’t it? To drug me. Record me. Blackmail me. Ruin me. You bastards actually thought you’d win like this?”“Trust me, sweetheart.” Doyle said, rising from the couch, “We’re about to win in every way that counts.”I shook my head slowly, “No, you’re not. Because you don’t know who the hell you’re messing with.”Lennox scoffed, “Really? You’re locked in, drugged up, and outnumbered.”“I’ve been underestimated before.” I said coolly, “And everyone who’s done it lived to regret it. So right now, if you let me go, I'll forget any of this ever happened. You'll keep your position as board members and I won't report you to the police.” Bullshit! The moment I'm able to get out of here, you guys are going behind bars! Lennox smirked, his eyes trailing down my body like I was a piece of meat on a butcher’s slab, “We’ll t

    Chapter 97 Rhea's Pov “I am.” I replied smoothly and took a real drink. It was only a little bit of whatever it was he poured inside the glass that was in there so I just drank it all. My throat burned and I shivered once again, the uncomfortable feeling intensifying. I gripped the glass tightly, my palms trembling. Kevin leaned closer, “Relax, babe. You look tense.”I didn’t reply. The heat was intensifying. My hands began to tingle. My vision shifted slightly, not blurred, not yet, but distorted. Like I was underwater.“Kevin.” I said, forcing the words out calmly, “What’s in this?”He gave me a look, mock surprise with a trace of amusement beneath it, “What? Just your drink. I wouldn’t drug you, Rhea. What do you take me for?”Fuck. I knew that Kevin might be planning to drug me but what kind of drug did he use? Just a little drink and it was already this potent?! I stood up a little too fast and almost fell again, but I shook my head frantically to try to clear my eyes a bit,

    Chapter 95 Rhea's Pov I stared at her, momentarily confused. Handsome? Did she think I was a man?The woman flushed as if just realizing what she’d said, then let out the most unexpected sound, a laugh. Not a shy giggle, not an embarrassed chuckle, but a rich, melodious laugh that rang out through the boutique like wind chimes on a breezy day.“Oh my God.” She said, still clinging to my arm, “I can't believe I said that out loud.” Her laugh turned breathless, “But seriously, the way you caught me, it was like something straight out of a K-drama. I nearly swooned.”I blinked. Then I grinned, “Well, I’m glad I caught you before the carpet did. That would've been far less graceful.”She straightened up, brushing her sleek, honey-brown curls behind her ears. Now that I got a good look at her, she was stunning. Clear, glowing skin, lips curled in a mischievous smile, and fashion that screamed old money but with a playful twist, a lavender silk blouse tucked into wide-legged designer trou

    Chapter 94 Rhea's Pov A few days later, as Ginny asked me to, I had returned a few of the furniture back into the house. Or… Rather than say I returned… More like a purchased a few ones that could break easily and weren't expensive, not even worth anything and placed them there. I watched as Kevin stood in front, his chest puffed out like he was on top of the world. I mostly sat inside the car, staring at his stupid self. Eventually, he came to me, a huge smile on his face. “From the beginning, you shouldn't have tried to make me look like a bad person to everyone. Isn't it a hassle taking things and bringing them back? If you were just angry with me, Rhea, you should have said it. You should apologise to my mother and sisters for acting the way you did. I'm sure if you kneel and beg, they'll forgive you and put everything behind them.” The way he spoke got on my nerves so badly that my fingers twitched. I wanted to slap him. Calm down, Rhea. Keep your cool. “You want m
