LOGINALEXA’S POVI knew it.I was right not to get my hopes up.Last night, I expected Jason to continue being… different. Softer. Warmer.Instead, he walked past me at dinner as if nothing had changed. Cold. Distant. Back to being the grumpy, unreadable man I married.I shouldn’t have expected anything.Today was exhausting. I had a press interview scheduled, back-to-back meetings, pending contracts to review, and documents stacked endlessly on my desk.Thankfully, the company was improving steadily. Clients were returning. New partnerships were forming. Business-wise, things were finally stabilizing.Emotionally?That was another story.“Mrs. Anderson?” Tiffany’s voice pulled me from my thoughts as she stepped into my office.I arched an eyebrow. “Yes?”“There’s someone here to see you.”“I’m extremely busy,” I sighed, rubbing my temples. “Who is it?”Tiffany hesitated.“Mrs. Stones.”My head snapped up.“Mrs. Stones?”*****************************SYDNEY’S POV“Okay,” I said sharply. “W
JASON’S POVI stepped out of the conference room after a long meeting with my associates and department heads. We were currently finalizing preparations for the grand opening of my new boutique complex in Georgia. Expanding the business had always been my goal — regardless of Jace’s recent laziness.The malls, theatre organizations, restaurants, and boutiques in other states were performing well, and that alone kept me motivated.I returned to my office and sank into my chair, checking updates on my phone. Most of the responsibility had fallen on me lately. Jace’s nonchalant attitude wasn’t helping, and I refused to let years of hard work crumble because of it.Suddenly, I heard raised voices from my secretary’s office.Curious, I stepped out.“I said I want to see your boss! Do you even know who I am?” a familiar female voice snapped.“Do you have an appointment?” Sandra replied calmly.“You don’t know me? I’m—”“Holly,” I said, exhaling slowly.She turned dramatically. “Jason! This
SYDNEY’S POV“So, Mom, what exactly are you trying to do? And who is this man?” I asked sharply, irritation clear in my voice as my eyes settled on the stranger seated across from us.“Well,” my mother said calmly, “this man is helping me with Gresham’s documents.”I stared harder at him. The strange man was dressed entirely in black, from head to toe — even his face was hidden behind a mask.“And how does this concern me?” I asked coldly.“Sydney, I know you’re against Alexa. That makes you useful,” my mother said evenly.“Mom, I’m not interested in your business. Handle your problems while I handle mine. Leave me out of this.”“Sydney,” she said patiently, “we can bring her down together. I’m already working on something.”“Mom—”“Listen carefully,” Mrs. Stones interrupted. “If we work together, we can both get what we want. I already have someone inside her company who will get me those documents. Everything is in motion. You just need to trust me. This man here is a great help.”I
News spread like wildfire across New York. Before anyone could blink, it was everywhere—tabloids, blogs, social media, and newspapers.Jason stood before a crowd of curious journalists at a press conference, cameras flashing nonstop.“Good day, everyone,” he began calmly. “I’m here to address the rumors circulating online about my wife. Many of you accused her of inappropriate behavior, and this has caused her immense emotional distress.”Murmurs rippled through the crowd.“I want these rumors taken down immediately. Stop interfering in our personal lives. None of you made proper findings, and you clearly don’t care whether the information is true or not. The man in that picture was merely an acquaintance. My wife is not what you’ve portrayed her to be. So I’m pleading—end this now.”A female journalist raised her hand.“Sir, are you absolutely certain about this?”“Yes,” Jason replied firmly.“But the picture clearly suggests flirting. The expressions, the body language—”“I trust my
Mrs. Leonard paced the living room restlessly, phone pressed tightly to her ear.“Dylan, make an appointment with Mrs. Hart immediately,” she ordered sharply. “She must find a way to stop these rumours about my daughter.”She ended the call and turned angrily to Austin.“Austin, do something too. We can’t just sit around while my daughter is being insulted and dragged through the mud.”Austin stared at her coldly.“But what if it’s true?”“Exactly!” Mrs. Anderson’s voice cut in as she walked into the mansion.“Susan,” Mrs. Leonard called, clearly irritated.“Jessica, what has your daughter done?” Mrs. Anderson snapped. “She’s not only ruining your image but ours as well.”“Do you even believe those rumours?” Mrs. Leonard asked, fuming.Mrs. Anderson sighed. “Honestly, whether it’s true or not doesn’t matter right now. What matters is fixing this—fast. We can deal with the truth later.”Mrs. Leonard raised her brows. “Really?”“Yes. Your daughter should be the one answering questions r
“I can’t believe this,” Jennifer exclaimed.“What is it this time?” Jace said lazily. “Let me guess—your celebrity crush Rick has a new girlfriend, or Kelly Hart bought another car, or you’re jealous of Ariana—”“Shut the fuck up and look at this!” Jennifer snapped, shoving her phone at him.Curious, Jace leaned closer.Alexa Leonard Caught Flirting With Another Man Weeks After Marrying Jason AndersonHis eyes widened.“Isn’t that Alexa?” Jennifer asked.“This can’t be her,” Jace retorted.“Check the comments.”THIS LADY IS SUCH A BITCHHOW CAN SHE DO THIS?NOT SURPRISED.
