Kelvin stepped forward, stunned by what he’d just witnessed. “Miss Blackwood… You—”

Mandy raised one hand, silencing him without a glance.

“I have no business with you, Mr. Hartley,” she said coolly, her voice sharp. Her eyes didn’t leave Jennifer.

She took a step forward. “Apologize to her.”

Her voice was calm but firm, leaving no room for argument.

Alina stared, surprised by Mandy's change in tone. She had always seemed graceful and composed, but now she spoke with clear authority like someone used to being obeyed.

Was this who they were behind closed doors? Commanding. Ruthless when they need to be?

Jennifer opened her mouth, then closed it. Her pride clashed violently with the humiliation burning inside her.

“I…”

“If you can’t,” Mandy said smoothly, pulling out her phone from her purse, her gaze drifting to Kelvin, “then I’ll have security drag you and your plus-one out like animals.”

Jennifer’s shoulders tensed. She clenched her fists at her sides, then slowly turned to Alina. Wi

    Unable to respond, Mandy turned her head away and looked out the window, silent tears streaming down her cheeks.Zayn pulled out his phone and dialed a number. His assistant picked up immediately."You know where I am, right?" he said curtly. "Come over and drive Mandy’s car back to her place.”"Huh?" Mike’s confused voice came through the speaker, but Zayn cut him off."Also, find that video online. Take it down immediately. I don’t care what you have to do...just erase it.""Wait, what video and who’s in the vid..."The call ended before Mike could finish.Sliding his phone away, Zayn leaned closer to Mandy and carefully fastened her seatbelt. His fingers brushed lightly against her arm, and she shivered. Her red, puffy eyes blinked up at him."Why… why are you helping me?" she whispered.Zayn said nothing. He sat upright, gripped the steering wheel, and started the car.The silence between them was heavy but Mandy felt just a little less alone now.*****At the Blackwood mansion,

    Mandy shook her head violently, refusing to believe what was happening. Her trembling hands reached out to grab the phone from Aurora, desperate to stop her, but Aurora shoved her away with ease. Mandy stumbled backward, landing on the floor. Though the pain wasn’t much, it pierced her pride. She pressed her lips tightly together, refusing to let her tears spill, refusing to cry in front of them.Aurora smirked, her fingers hovering over the screen."I’m posting it," she announced triumphantly.Just as she was about to hit the button, a strong hand gripped her wrist and everyone turned at once. Zayn stood there, his expression cold, unreadable, his presence making everyone go still."Zayn?" Aurora blinked, confused. "Why are you stopping me? Isn’t this what you wanted? For everyone to see her downfall?"Without answering, Zayn tightened his grip, forcing her hand down until the phone slipped from her fingers and clattered to the floor. Gasps erupted from the group. But before Mandy co

  • Faking Forever With The Billionaire    Chapter 120

    After Aiden finally cleared things with Gavin, just before he left, they’d apologized to each other and the tension between them reduced. It wasn’t completely gone, but at least they hadn’t parted on a bad note. Now, with that matter set aside, Aiden and Alina chose to spend more time at the Blackwood mansion while preparing for their upcoming wedding.That evening, the sitting room was lively. Everyone was together, talking, laughing, and chatting all at once.Everyone was there...except Mandy.Upstairs in her room, Mandy sat in front of her mirror. Her reflection stared back at her, and she tilted her head, studying herself for a while. After a moment, she gave a small determined nod."I’ll just go there, see whatever they want to do, then leave," she whispered under her breath. Standing up, she picked up her bag and headed out of the room.Just as she stepped into the hallway, her mother’s voice stopped her."Where are you going?"Mandy glanced back casually. "I’m meeting with som

    Aiden sat frozen in his chair, his jaw tight, his fists slightly balled on the desk. His chest rose and fell softly as Gavin’s figure moved farther away. He wanted to call Gavin back. The urge was strong, lingering in the back of his throat, but he forced it down. His pride, his anger all of it held him in place.So he let Gavin go.When the door clicked shut, Aiden leaned forward on his desk, one hand pressed against his forehead, the other still clenched on his desk. The rubbed his temple softly, the weight of Gavin’s words pressing on him more.When he finally stood up and stepped into his private room, his eyes immediately fell on Jesse lying on the wide bed. Jesse’s eyes were closed, his arm resting lazily on his forehead as though he had been drained of every last ounce of energy. For a moment, Aiden simply stood there, watching him.He let out a long sigh. Quietly, he walked closer and pulled the blanket higher to cover Jesse properly. Standing over him, Aiden released another

    The silence in the office stretched on after Aiden’s sharp words. Gavin sat there, his hands clenching and unclenching on his knees, as if he was fighting with himself inside. Finally, he raised his eyes to meet Aiden’s.“ You know what? Fuck you.” He muttered. "I know I’ve made mistakes. I know I’ve said things and even done things I shouldn’t have… and maybe I even tried to test Alina in few occasions during my time here. But don’t ever think I conspired with Michelle to drug her. Whatever Michelle did, it wasn’t because I agreed to it or advice her into it."Aiden didn’t answer. His eyes remained cold, but his silence pushed Gavin to continue."I can’t compete with you, Aiden," Gavin said, his tone tired "Not with anything at all. While every other grandchild of the Blackwoods was out there wasting time, their lives chasing popularity for being a Blackwood, you were already building your empire at seventeen. At that age, I was still figuring out who I was. But you… you were alread

    When Alina stepped into the creative department, she didn’t expect much; just another normal start to the day, but the moment she pushed the door open, every single person inside stood at once, including Charlotte. Their voices rang out in unison, startling her."Good morning, Mrs. Blackwood!"The greeting was so loud and sudden that Alina froze for a moment, her eyes widening in surprise. She hadn’t expected them to acknowledge her that way, and the formality of it all startled the hell out of her.One of the employees who had once spoken to her harshly quickly walked up to her, bowing slightly. "I’m sorry if I ever spoke to you rudely in the past."Alina blinked, her gaze moving around the room, meeting their eyes one after the other. Their faces were full of respect, some even nervous."Listen, everyone..." she said gently. "I’m still Alina. There’s no need to be scared of me. Let’s just keep working together as we did before, alright?"They all muttered a quiet, "Yes, ma’am," in r
