My father stares at the folder like it's a snake. His hands are shaking slightly, though he's trying to hide it. "You're out of your mind if you think I'm signing that!"

Diana's expression doesn't change. She might as well be discussing the weather. "The document has been prepared by Westfield Legal. It's ironclad and legally binding. Your signature is merely a formality to make the transition smoother."

"A formality?" Henry laughs, but there's an edge of hysteria to it. "This is extortion! This is illegal! I'll have every lawyer in the city..."

"What's illegal," Axel says quietly from his position by the door, "Is embezzling company funds. Falsifying financial reports. Using corporate resources for personal gain. Insider trading. Tax evasion. Should I continue?"

The color drains from my father's face.

I watch as the realization hits him that Kieran's people have been digging into his activities.

  • The Heiress' Return For Vengeance    CH.94

    ELISEThe silence that follows is deafening.No one moves. No one speaks.The board members stare at the closed door with expressions of pure terror. They've just watched a woman be physically removed from a boardroom, dragged out screaming, and not one of them lifted a finger to help her.Because they're all afraid.Afraid of Kieran. Afraid of what he might do to them if they step out of line. Afraid of ending up like Camila, dragged out of the room like garbage.I should feel guilty. I should feel horrified by the violence, the intimidation, the sheer brutality of what just happened.But all I feel is a savage satisfaction.Camila has spent years poisoning my father against me, playing the role of the perfect stepmother while subtly undermining me at every turn. She's whispered lies, spread rumors, turned my own family into enemies.She's spent my money, lived in my house, and treated me like an inconvenient obstacle to be removed.And now she's been thrown out like the trash she is

    ELISEThe bodyguard continues his work with complete seriousness, spraying the chair a second time for good measure. He examines it from different angles, then pulls out another cloth and wipes down the armrests with meticulous attention to detail.Camila stands frozen with her mouth hanging open. Her makeup can't hide the mortification spreading across her face.My father looks like he's been turned to stone. His face is gray, his eyes wide and unseeing. He's too shocked, too humiliated to even process what just happened to his wife.The great Henry Blackwood, reduced to a silent statue while his wife is treated like a contaminant.Once satisfied, the man wheels the chair across the room toward the floor to ceiling windows that overlook the city.He positions the chair that it faces the windows at the perfect angle then steps back.Kieran walks to the chair his man prepared and sits down with fluid grace, crossing one leg over the other.His posture is relaxed, almost casual, but the

    ELISEGasps echo through the room as my father stumbles backward, arms windmilling, and crashes into a director's chair. Both men go down in a tangle of limbs and expensive suits.Papers scatter across the floor and someone's coffee mug tips over, spilling across the polished wood.The director's face flushes crimson—a mottled combination of humiliation and terror as he scrambles to his feet, unable to meet anyone's eyes.My father also struggles to his feet. His suit's rumpled and his styled hair disheveled.He looks furious, humiliated, and utterly powerless.For the first time, I see him for what he truly is: a man who built his empire on lies and manipulation, now stripped of the facade that kept him in power.Kieran turns to me. His expression's unchanged, as though he didn't just physically remove a man from his seat. My own father and his father-in-law.Not that I'm complaining. Henry deserved everything he's getting. If anything, I wish my cold-hearted husband would put him in

  • The Heiress' Return For Vengeance    CH.90

    ELISEThe world seems to tilt on its axis and the temperature in the room drops several degrees.Kieran's presence fills every corner like a physical force.He's dressed impeccably in a charcoal suit, and his expression looks carved from ice.His eyes are what make my breath catch. They are utterly devoid of mercy.The chaos that had erupted moments ago… the shouting, the scuffling, the violence… all stops instantly.Vincent freezes mid-punch with his fist suspended inches from Matthew's face while the other guards stumble back, their bravado evaporating like morning mist. Even my father, who moments ago was red-faced and bellowing orders, goes silent.Everyone in this room knows who Kieran Westfield is. Everyone in this room is terrified of him.The Westfield name carries weight in this city and the entire country of Cassovile. It carries fear.Kieran's family built their empire on steel and ruthlessness, and he's proven himself to be the most dangerous of them all. There are rumors

    ELISEThe silence that follows is deafening. Then my father's lips curve into a cold smile."Very well." He turns to address the room. "All those in favor of removing Elise Blackwood from her position as heir and transferring full control to myself, Henry Blackwood, please raise your hand."For a moment, no one moves.The air in the boardroom feels thick and suffocating.I can hear my own heartbeat thundering in my ears, can feel the weight of every single pair of eyes in this room. Some are sympathetic. Most are calculating. All of them are waiting to see which way the wind will blow before they commit.And then, one of the Directors slowly raises his hand.A man who's been with this company for fifteen years. A man who attended my mother's funeral and told me he'd support me through anything.My stomach drops.Another hand follows… one belonging to director who worked directly under my grandfather. Then another, someone I personally promoted last year.One by one, like dominoes fall
