ELISE

Camila's voice rings clear and strong through the silent room.

The room explodes into chaos.

Directors jump to their feet, sending chairs scraping loudly against the floor.

Voices overlap in shock and disbelief.

Alexander remains seated, perfectly still, watching the chaos unfold with those cold, calculating eyes.

He doesn't look surprised. He looks vindicated.

Vivianne stands slowly, smoothing down her clothes with practiced elegance. "Gentlemen, please," her voice cuts through the noise. "Let's maintain some decorum. This is shocking news, certainly, but we must handle it professionally."

She turns to the board members, her expression shifting to one of grave concern. "I think we can all agree that this changes everything. The entire foundation of the inheritance, the company structure, the succession plan. All of it was built on false assumptions."

Her gaze sweeps the room, commanding attention. "We need to take a step back and reassess. Clearly, there are legal implications

  • The Heiress' Return For Vengeance    CH.105

    ELISEI'm sitting at the dining table, fingers flying across the keyboard with renewed purpose, when my necklace suddenly begins to glow hot.My fingers pause over a particularly damning email thread when the sound of the elevator echoes through the penthouse.The elevator doors slide open with their usual whisper, but what steps out isn't usual at all.Vincent stumbles forward, with blood trickling from his split lip and his eyes bloodshot. Behind him are four men in black suits, looking ready to spill blood any moment."Vincent!" I slide my laptop across the table as I stand quickly and move toward him.Another figure steps from the elevator, and Vincent's entire demeanor changes.I stare at this familiar stranger whom I knew too well from my past life.Portala, the old Westfield butler.He walks past Vincent with calm authority.He's a thin man in his fifties, impeccably dressed in a black suit. Everything about him screams old money and unquestioned obedience."Mrs. Westfield." He

    ELISEAn entire week passes in a blur of restless sleep and waking nightmares.I cry without knowing why, with tears streaming down my face before consciousness fully returns each morning.Some days I curl into a ball, sobbing into the pillow until it's soaked through.Maria finds me like this and immediately pulls me into her arms."I don't know why I'm crying," I gasp between sobs. "I just can't stop. Everyone hates me. Everyone thinks my mother was a whore and I'm a fraud. The whole country watched me fall apart."Other days I sleep for sixteen hours straight, hiding from consciousness, from the reality of what my life has become.When I finally wake, disoriented and groggy, Vera brings soup with gentle insistence.I take three sips before my stomach rebels.The spoon clatters against the bowl as I push it away."I'm not hungry!"The sharpness in my voice when Vera tries to coax me to eat more makes her flinch.I see the hurt in her eyes and feel a stab of guilt, but I can't seem t

    ELISERight after the boardroom incident, the major networks announce an "exclusive interview" with Natasha and Alexander.Maria tries to hide the remote from me, but I insist on watching.The pristine white studio has soft, flattering lighting that makes both of them look angelic.Natasha and Alexander sit side by side on a cream-colored couch. Her face is red, suggesting she's been crying without actually looking unattractive while Alexander’s expression is grave.The host, known for her "empathetic" interviews with celebrities in crisis, leans forward with fake concern."Let's start with what everyone wants to know." Her voice is warm, inviting, designed to make her subjects feel safe enough to reveal their deepest secrets."Mr. Westfield, you dropped several bombshells in that boardroom. Can you tell us why you felt compelled to reveal such personal family information?"Alexander takes Natasha's hand as though he's struggling with difficult emotions."It wasn't easy," he begins. "

    ELISETwo more hours pass in a haze of restless sleep and hollow waking moments.I barely eat the soup Maria brings, barely respond to Vera's gentle words of conversation. The world outside these walls feels distant and unreal, like something happening to someone else.But reality has a way of intruding, no matter how much you try to hide from it."I need to see how bad the damage is," I finally voice."No," Maria protests immediately, moving to block the television. "You don’t need to see that poison.""Turn it on!" My hollow voice cuts through.Both women look at me with concern. However, I’m beyond caring about their worry. I need to see exactly how thoroughly my life has been destroyed.Vera hesitates for another moment, then the television flickers to life, and disaster unfolds in high definition.The first channel runs an endless loop of the boardroom, broadcasting every second of it live across the national news networks.The moment I collapse and Vincent's lightning-fast refle

    ELISE I wake to soft, frantic whispers and the sensation of cool cloth on my forehead.The room is dim, curtains drawn tight, with only a single bedside lamp.My head throbs with each heartbeat, and when I try to move, nausea rises sharp and sudden in my throat.The world feels unstable, like I'm floating on a ship in rough waters."Mi niña… you scared me half to death…" Maria's voice breaks through the fog clouding my thoughts.She sits beside me, one hand cupping my pale cheek and the other gripping my limp fingers.Her eyes are red and swollen with tears still glistening on her cheeks.The concern in Maria's voice, the raw emotion, cuts through my disorientation.This woman who raised me, who loved me unconditionally, who never questioned my place in her world even when everyone else did.Vera hovers near the door with worry etched deep in the lines around her eyes.She keeps glancing between me and the door, as though expecting someone to arrive.I try to sit up but the room spin
