Back at the gala hall, Renee sipped her last drink and turned to Priya, glued to her hip. “I need to leave. I don’t think I can stay here much longer.”

Priya nodded, fully understanding the situation. “Of course. I’ll go get your purse.”

Before she could leave, Renee grabbed her arm, staring at the entrance. “I can’t go out that way.” She said, keeping her voice low.

“I barely managed to get in here without being spotted by them. I don’t think I’ll be that successful anymore, especially after that big reveal. I’m sure runouts would have been spreading by now.” She explained.

Priya nodded knowingly. “There’s a back exit. I’ll walk you there. Come on.” She said, quickly grabbing Renee’s purse.

Without wasting time, she led Renee away from the buzzing crowd and calm music. They walked through a dimly lit hallway, and soon, the echoes of the distant music and chatter from the crowd faded and were replaced by the rhythmic clacking of their heels.

Once they arrived at the back door, Renee p

    “You’re not going to meet with him, are you?” Priya asked, watching Renee grab her purse and keys.She had come into the office to speak with Renee after the meeting and try to get started on her new role as manager. But, she was met with Renee in deep thought…she didn’t even hear her come in.It was only when she called her name again that Renee blinked and finally took notice of her. When she asked, she was told that Daniel wanted a private meeting with Renee.Knowing how cunning and evil he was, she immediately spoke against it.“I have to,” Renee said with a sorry look.“No, Ree.” She ran up to her and grabbed her hand. “We know how that man is. What if he tries to hurt you and steal your company?” Priya asked, worried for Renee’s safety.“He won’t do that.” Renee chuckled, but Priya didn’t find it funny.“Besides, what if someone sees you out with him and suspects that you’re back together? What are you going to do then?” She asked. Renee played her right hand on Priya’s cheek an

    AFTER THE MEETINGThe boardroom slowly emptied, board members whispering among themselves, still trying to digest what they had just witnessed.They had expected drama in the meeting, but not like this. Renee had stepped in and made things chaotic.But, as the room cleared out, one man remained seated at the end of the table…Bryan Taylor of Taylor Industries.He hadn’t taken his eyes off Renee since she walked in. A sly, proud smile stayed on his lips as he watched her take charge of her empire.He waited until Priya stepped out before standing from his seat, and for some reason, Renee remained in the boardroom, waiting for an opportunity to speak to him.“That was impressive.” He said, his voice deep and calm.Renee sighed softly, flashed him a small smile, and stood.“Bryan. I wasn’t expecting to you.” She admitted.She had only been back for two days but had seen Bryan way more than she had since they left high school.“Shareholder, remember?” He reminded, and she nodded slowly.“

    Did you miss me?” She asked, her eyes scanning the large board room with a large grin.The room remained frozen in silence, everyone was unable to comprehend the fact that she was actually standing before them, especially under such circumstances.Renee held her ground at the head of the table, her hands still resting on the polished surface, her posture exuding authority.“M…Mrs Rayne?” The legal advisor who stood at the podium said in a shaky breath.“It’s Renee Jackson now.” She replied, locking eyes with Jane, who looked like she had just seen a ghost.“Well…” She hummed and sat on the chair at the head of the table. “I’ll keep this brief. I’m sure we all have things to do.” She began, her voice calm and deliberate.“First.” She started and glanced at Priya, who was standing just behind her. “I’d like to thank Priya for handling things smoothly in my absence. I am truly grateful that the stocks have been stable under her care.”Priya smiled briefly, blushing at Renee’s praise.The

    SMACK! The sting on Renee’s cheek died as soon as it came. She moved her tongue to the side, touching her cheek from the inside. Her eyes then turned back to face Jane, her eyes filled with rage. Jane couldn’t hide the fact that she was threatened by Renee’s calmness. She didn’t flinch or attach her. Instead, she took slow steps to her, only stopping when she was a step away from her. “This will be the last time you do something like that.” She said in a low, calm voice but, undeniably dangerous. Jane cleared her throat, covering her fear with a scoff. She crossed her arm and blinked. “Or what? You’ll glare me to death?” “I’m not the same girl you used to push around. Don’t make me do something we’ll both regret.” She said, ignoring Jane’s comment. “That’s enough!” Charles said from the side, placing his hand on Jane’s shoulder and shooting Renee a deadly glare. “That’s not how you should speak to your mother!” He scolded. Renee scoffed at his statement. That word and the woma

    “I never signed the divorce papers, dear wife,” Daniel said with a wide grin.Renee’s eyes twitched and her heart dropped in disappointment. This wasn’t the news she expected.Daniel’s grin widened in expectation. He wanted to see the look of disappointment on her face, maybe a scream or a gasp—any visible reaction but, she did none of that.Instead, she tilted her head and gave him a faint smile. “That’s not a problem, Daniel. I can always make another copy. In my eyes, we are no longer together with or without the divorce papers.” She said and turned to Bryan.“Forgive me, Bryan but we would need to catch up later. I have somewhere important to be.” She said in a razor-sharp tone without smiling and walked away, ignoring Daniel who kept staring at her like a hawk.As soon as she left, he turned to Bryan, fury dancing in his eyes.“I don’t want you talking to my wife.” He said bluntly, his chest heaving.Bryan chuckled slowly and placed his hands in his pocket, his eyes cold and void
