Desperate Hearts: Meera’s Sweet Revenge Reading of the Will (2)
“The Villa, where I lived, situated at number 5, South Street would be given to Meera and her brother, David.” He paused to look at Meera, she looked quite surprised probably because she didn’t expect to get a thing.Tears of gratitude and longing clouded her vision. She was content with the Villa. This place housed the happy memories she shared with the old man. Everyone else in the room scoffed. They would be upset if they were given this old and ‘unappealing’ villa instead of the ones that were truly worth something. “The money from all my accounts combined should be divided into two equal parts between Benita and Benjamin. The estates in and outside the country couldn't be divided equally between my granddaughter and grandson…” The lawyer further shared the land and everything else of property that the old man had equally among Benita and Benjamin. Benita and her mother were quite shocked that Benita received the same number of houses and land that Ben received. What’s more, h
Desperate Hearts: Meera’s Sweet Revenge Devastating blow
“Meera, do you remember the night I brought you and David home? It was rainy and windy. You didn’t want to come with me until you saw that David was cold. From little, you had already been a strong woman and I truly envied your resilience. I encouraged you to marry Ben because I knew you would be the only woman who would genuinely love him and lead him through the right path. However, I only realized that I did you injustice again when I only had three years left to live. I could have called off the wedding and saved you from impending doom, however, my selfishness to have you continue living as my daughter didn’t let me move a muscle. By the time this Will is read, you would have understood what I meant by this. I thought that Ben would grow up under your tutelage, but he remained a fool, just like his father. I’m sorry, Meera, it was not Ben who ruined your life it was I. You have my blessings if you choose to leave, but please, take the house, it would come in handy in the future.
Desperate Hearts: Meera’s Sweet Revenge His intentions
Greg paused but without looking back, replied, “Are you scared that I’d tell you I like you?” He turned to look over his shoulder and saw that her face was morphing into a scowl. At that moment, he added, “worry not, I have a fiance.” He continued what he was doing while saying, “I told you before, I saw how you were treated by your husband. I detest men who do that to their wives and as the only celebrity I’ve ever rooted for, I’d like to see you standing back on your feet. I want to see you in the limelight again, Meera.” “Are you going this for free?” “Aside from the fact that I’m your fan, I’m also a businessman. Wouldn’t you be suspicious if I don’t want anything in return?”“I would. So, tell me, what do you want in return?” She was eager to understand his intentions so she would know if she should call Maria and tell her to stop moving their things. “You were only a small-time celebrity, however, I can see that you have a lot more potential to be a mainstream celebrity. So,

“Let me see who that is,” he said and left the kitchen. Not long later, he returned and said, “It’s your brother and friend.” Just when he finished, Maria’s voice pierced through the roof, “Meera, where are you?! Tell me you’re the chef, please!! I’ve been having nightmares about eating what you made!!!”“Stop yelling like a country bumpkin. Our neighbor might think we came from the country side, tsk!” David chided in a way that wasn’t rude nor polite. What followed after was an object hitting the floor. Meera chuckled and shook her head. Those two, if David wasn’t too young, she would have thought they were in love. Their banter was one of a kind. She suddenly froze when she remembered that this was not their place. She looked up at Greg and smiled awkwardly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Greg, I’ll tell them right away to not ruin anything.”“You don’t have to. Whatever is ruined can always be replaced,” but loosing you is something that cannot be replaced, he completed the sentence in his mind
Desperate Hearts: Meera’s Sweet Revenge Sticky situation
Inside the car, on their way back, Meera was looking out the window, watching the buildings speed past them. She had thought of numerous ways to solve the pressing matter at hand, but couldn’t think of anything useful. Going back to school to learn business management was not an option. When she graduated, she was excited. She thought that she could become a chef at a top restaurant, but Ben kicked against it and wanted her to be a full-time house wife and exercise her cooking skills on him alone. Meera lacked nothing, so she didn’t protest. In fact, she was happy about it. Over the years that she was a full time housewife, Ben also brought most of his work home from the office. He didn't hide anything from her, but she didn't have interest in business. Had she known that this would happen, she would have learned how to run a company from him. At this moment, Meera didn’t regret anything more than this. “What are you brooding about?”Maria’s question snapped her out of her reverie
Desperate Hearts: Meera’s Sweet Revenge Finding Greg
... “Have you told Greg about the shares you got?” Maria asked once they got home. “Is there a need to tell him? He’s my sponsor, not my manager.” Meera responded while taking off her costume. “True, but is Ben and Vivian going to fold their hands and watch you run the company?”“Ben would rather die than watch the company fall into someone else’s hands. That being said, do you have... Forget it, he said he’s my follower, but how do I look for him when I don’t know his username?” Meera sighed and slumped on the sofa. Her problems were overwhelming her. A smile slipped onto Maria’s lips as she sat beside Meera, “I think David has his contact. Call him and ask.”“He does?” Meera frowned and called out to David. “He won’t hear you, he should be playing games by now.” Meera sighed, got up and headed to one of the many rooms in the house. She knocked on the door a couple of times before pushing it open. As Maria said, he was sitting in front of his computer, with gamers headphones on
Desperate Hearts: Meera’s Sweet Revenge Arriving at Carl Corp
The next morning... Meera wore a peach skirt suit and followed it up with a thick layer of makeup that distorted her face entirely and gave her another person’s appearance before heading for Greg’s company. Arriving at the reception, the lady refused her entry without an appointment proof. Meera messaged Greg on Insta but he wouldn’t respond. Last night, she forgot to ask for his number. Meanwhile, Greg’s assistant was sitting at the lounge, waiting for her. He saw Meera when she entered but failed to recognize her. With no means to reach Greg, trouble erupted in the reception. “Miss, you have to leave otherwise, I’ll get the security,” said the haughty female receptionist. “I really need to see your boss. He asked me to come over, which means he’s in his office. Just bring me to him or better still, give him a quick call and tell him that Me— ““I’m assuming you don’t understand my crisp and clear language. Even his family members cannot see him without booking an appointment, l
Desperate Hearts: Meera’s Sweet Revenge Threatening Hudson
“Perfect, except that you failed to do proper research on the land you intend to build on!” Greg pointed his pen at the screen, asking, “do you know why none of our competitors are so eager to fight for the piece of land with us? It’s because the neighborhood is estimated to start sinking in 10 years. Didn’t you know that?”“Yes, I know, that’s why the company will increase its bid for the piece of land. 10 years is a long time. By eight to nine years, we would have profited and we can then sell off the property to another company. That way, we won’t suffer any loss. Moreover, the land is extremely cheap in the market as it is.”Greg sat in stunned silence, staring at his cousin who has no foresight. After a long while, he finally decided to say, “ What happens when no one buys the property from us? Are you willing to build a residence on a sinking soil for people to live in?" Before Hudson could reply, Greg raised a finger. “Why do you think that this company is standing at the top o
