Camari's life was perfect. That was what she thought before her husband presented her divorce papers. She initially refused and insisted on keeping the marriage. But her husband showed his true colors and did everything he could to force her to sign. The misfortunes in her life did not stop after their divorce. An offer came in at a time of need, so Camari teamed up with a stranger to strike back. But many secrets about her and her partner made them barely execute the plans. Their trust in each other was tested.
View MoreJasmine and I exchanged glances. The car did not exceed the speed limit. My best friend obeyed the traffic lights as we passed through the intersection. Were any of the car's lights not working? However, Jasmine made sure she checked all the lights this morning."In that case, we don't need to panic," I suggested. "It's probably just a periodic check.""I hope it's just a misunderstanding," she whispered.Jasmine pulled the car over. The policeman also stopped behind us. I held the hand of my best friend, who was near the gearshift. She turned her head and smiled at me. The window on her side was tapped, so Jasmine opened it."Good evening, Miss," greeted the policeman kindly. "Please show me your license.""First, may I know the problem, sir?" asked Jasmine."Show me your papers. Only then I can tell you what the problem is," the man insisted. Strange. That wasn't the procedure.Jasmine glanced at me, but she didn't say anything. Obeying the policeman's words, she took out her wallet
[Camari]Luckily, we chose a spot in the corner of the bar. We could see the whole club, but they couldn't see us from where they sat. I came here to enjoy the night with my new best friend, not to make a scene.Wait a minute. Why should I feel this way? I had the right to be wherever I wanted without feeling intimidated by their presence. After all, they and I had nothing to do with each other anymore. We were strangers."This is the first time you've asked me to a place like this." Jasmine looked at me meaningfully. "Usually, you only want to have dinner at restaurants or cafes.""We couldn't drink on weekdays. We could get fired if we get the books wrong the next day." I defended myself."Right. And on the weekends, you're always out of town visiting your parents or dating Farrell," she teased again.I chuckled at the memory. "I'm their only child. So, I've felt obligated to take care of them for as long as they've been around."That habit stopped when I married Farrell. I deeply r
Harold widened his eyes. Seriously. He didn't think that far ahead? The stolen money must have been huge for him to fire Camari without a second thought. How could he just let go and not find out the real thief?I couldn't believe he was confident enough that Camari was the culprit that he wouldn't investigate further. Didn't he have the slightest doubt about the oddity of the incident? The money was safe if Camari was the culprit. What if she wasn't the thief?"I'll investigate immediately. But no matter what, I can't hire Camari back. Please don't share the footage with anyone," he pleaded. He glanced at the tablet in front of Jasper."Issue an official statement in front of all your employees regarding the investigation results. I want Miss Gastrell's reputation restored from any slander. If you fail to do this within seventy-two hours, I'll distribute the video," I threatened."That's too soon. I need more time than that," Harold coaxed."The longer you delay, the more Miss Gastre
I was thorough in selecting the person who became my right-hand man. Bruce's background, family, and education were impeccable. I was pleased to trust my company in his hand for ten years. It turned out that sitting on top for too long made him tempted to become more. He didn't own the company even though his name was used as the name of the CEO and founder. The idea, the money, and the company system were all mine. And he knew that. Perhaps he also knew my first assistant betrayed me and wasn't punished severely. He was wrong if he thought he would be as lucky as that man. I warned him before he signed the contract. I wouldn't forgive a traitor. Maybe he thought I was only giving empty threats. He knew then I was deadly serious. "Who told you to do this?" I asked without taking my eyes off him. He lowered his head and swallowed heavily. "Farrell Haworth." "Can you prove that answer?" I couldn't just believe him. He could be slandering Farrell. He took out his cell phone, was bus
[Otis]Camari smiled before turning around and walking towards the elevator. A woman as good as her should never have married Farrell. Father had been irresponsible in sacrificing her happiness for his ambition.Staying close to her post-divorce was not a wise move. Father would only make her more miserable. His favoritism toward her would have fueled Farrell and Bella's emotions. They would no longer hesitate to make her suffer.Unfortunately, I couldn't discuss this with Father. He would be offended if I made any suggestions. Besides, he didn't want to see me or talk to me. What I couldn't understand was his silence. Why didn't he help Camari who was hurt by Farrell and Bella?"She's a kind and caring woman," Jasper stated meaningfully. He glanced at me while rubbing his chin with his forefinger."Why do you speak in that tone?" I entered the apartment."I don't remember at all that you shouldn't exercise while under-rested," he remarked as he closed the door. "But Miss Gastrell pay
She stood beside her luxury car, looking at me with her chin up. I kept walking to my car and ignored her. Her business with me was over. After all, I didn't want to let it slip that I knew her evil plan.However, she didn't care about my attitude. A man stood before me as I was about to open my car door. I closed my eyes, trying to calm myself down. I turned my head toward the ignorant woman."Get your man out of the way, or I'll yell." My car and the lobby weren't far away. Security must have heard my voice if I asked for help.She chuckled. "Are you deaf? Or can't your brain digest information properly since your divorce from Farrell?" She glanced toward the hospital. "What are you doing here? I told you, Farrell hates you. Persuading his grandfather won't make him come back to you."I smiled, unwilling to fall for her malicious line. "Are you jealous?" I asked with an innocent face. "I'm free to see Grandpa, while you can just stand outside and hope he'll accept your visit.""What
His movements were so fast that I didn't know what to do to prevent him from hurting me other than closing my eyes and squealing in surprise. But waiting for a while, nothing happened. His hand didn't land anywhere on my face.Feeling his grip on my right arm loosen, I opened my eyes. He let go of my hand and grasped the other hand on his right arm. I turned and saw Jasper standing nearby with reddened eyes."I've told you, touch Miss Gastrell one more time, and I'll break your finger that hurt her," Jasper said between gnashing his teeth."Let go of my hand, you fool!" scolded Farrell. His two guards stood nearby, helping him face Jasper."Let him go, Jasper!" someone shouted from behind me. "Don't get your hands dirty."Jasper obeyed his superior's words and stood before me, protecting me from Farrell. I didn't care how he and Otis got here, but I was grateful that he was helping me. My body was shaking, and my heart was beating so fast when I realized I had just escaped from danger
I groaned in pain, but a hand silenced my mouth. I opened my eyes and met the gaze of the pair of gray eyes that had once hypnotized me. Yet he stared at me with an inextinguishable fury.He held my hand tightly, but my left hand was free. An idea popped into my head. My hand wouldn't be able to hurt him. My knee could. As a result, he let go of my hand and mouth and pulled away with a long moan."Touch me one more time, then my knees won't just kick once but repeatedly that you can't f*ck Bella all year," I threatened.Farrell put his hands on his thighs, enduring the pain from the impact of my knee on the organ between his legs. He would remember that every time he tried to hurt me. He and Bella were wrong if they thought they could continue to toy with me."Yo-you...," he said with difficulty."I came here at Grandpa's request. If you have a problem with that, feel free to talk to him. Leave me alone!" I turned the doorknob, but it couldn't open it. Something was holding it outside
[Camari]I closed the apartment door and placed my bag on the kitchen counter. I took a deep breath and let it out slowly, but it couldn't calm my anger. Damn it! What a jerk! What an ignorant woman! I wanted to punch someone right now.Seeing the refrigerator, I went over and got a bottle of water. I gulped it down until I felt calmer. I sat on the sofa and leaned on its head. That couldn't be allowed anymore. I had to do something to stop her from doing whatever she wanted to me.That ignorant man who hit my car window a few days ago was her messenger? I remember we just talked at a café not far from our workplace. I'd been daydreaming at the red light, so I was a bit late driving my car when the green light came on.So, she taught me a lesson right then and there? What did she want? Me getting beat up by a guy who's bigger and taller than me? She was a crazy woman! Just because she came from a rich and more influential family, she's taking it out on me!Not satisfied with getting h
