REBECCA'S POV

"Miss Belmont, that's not—"

"What? If you can't provide proof about you being there, why should I or anyone on this board listen to you?"

Mr. Jerome's face was pale, and I noticed the color draining from his eyes. His lips parted, and I stepped in quickly.

"If that was why this meeting was held, then it's better to cancel it altogether. I won't sit here after a tedious day and let you run your mouth to slander me," I said with a straight face.

If Mr. Jerome and these board members thought that they were going to tear me down, then they should guess again.

Since they wanted to play dirty, it was only fair I returned the favor and played even dirtier.

"Miss Belmont, according to what I heard—"

"Oh, so you're judging me based on what you heard from someone? Who is it, then? Maybe you should bring him or her here so they can explain themselves."

Mr. Jerome's hand tightened over the table.

According to my analysis, Jerome was working with Felix, and that made him the masterm

  • Hell Has No Fury: His Ex Wife Revenge   Now I Did

    REBECCA'S POVIf I remember, Felix can't even cook a fly to save his life.Oh well, their relationship was none of my business, so I tried to walk past, but somehow Anna drove her steps towards the side where I was, almost crashing into me."Oh, I didn't see you there. I'm so sorry," she says sweetly, her voice dripping from years of fakeness like I would care.I stared down at her. She was one of those typical five-foot girls men seemed to crave. Who knows, maybe that was the reason why I got cheated on.I wouldn’t call myself tall, but I still towered over most women—especially in heels.She was expecting me to react, but instead, I turned my gaze away and tried to walk away, but her arm latched onto mine, squeezing me.I stared at her grip and then to her face, trying to wonder what sort of twisted plan she was harbouring. I could already notice some of the few staff in the cafeteria staring at us."Anna, is there something I can help you with?" I asked.Anna tugged me forward, gri

  • Hell Has No Fury: His Ex Wife Revenge   Shamelessly Yours

    REBECCA'S POV"So, you are Philip Harts?" I asked, even though I had heard him the first time."Yes, ma’am," Philip said with a nod.He turned towards Kendrick, and I noticed the look of disdain etched between his brows before he straightened his back."Miss Belmont, don’t you think your bodyguard is too hostile? I was merely trying to give you a handshake, and he stopped me."A scoff tore from my throat as I seized up his appearance. “He was doing his job. People like you don’t even deserve to stand in front of me.”He blinked, but I turned my face away from him and walked away.When we got to the hallway, I heard Alyssa behind me. "Miss Belmont, you didn’t have to do that for me."My jaw hardened. "Who says I did it for you?"Alyssa paused and muttered, "Oh."I smirked. She was so easy.People like Alyssa were generous, kind, and easy to fool and they don’t even realize it. I’m afraid people will try to take advantage of her.Part of the reason why I took her in—aside from the fact

  • Hell Has No Fury: His Ex Wife Revenge   Pushover? No. Villianess? Yes.

    REBECCA'S POVThe air felt still like time had stopped, heavy with unspoken tension. Every second he stalled me, the meeting slipped further from reach.Deep down, as I watched the way his gaze hardened, I already had a feeling that there was no way he was going to change his mind.I held his piercing gaze, and then I walked past him—and surprisingly, he didn’t stop me. I tilted my head to the side, and I had to admit, a smile formed on my face when I heard his steps behind me.Alyssa was about to open the door when I stopped and turned to Kendrick. “Are you sure you want to go in? Won’t people recognize you?”Kendrick crossed his arms. “Are you worried about my identity? It’s not like it was a secret in the first place. Most people don’t know me because I didn’t grow up in Langford City.”I gave a knowing nod and then I paused again. Kendrick was already here, I might as well use his presence to my advantage.“Since you’re here, I might just make the announcement that you will be wi

  • Hell Has No Fury: His Ex Wife Revenge   Warmth In The Dark

    REBECCA'S POVMy eyes widened, caught between reality and the storm of thoughts clouding my mind. I stumbled forward, my frantic steps barely supported by knees that threatened to give out.One hand tangled in my hair, the other clutching my shirt—I gasped for air, but it felt like none existed. Tears pooled, blurring the dark around me.“No… please stop. Make it stop.” My voice rolled out in hushed pleas as my steps faltered backward, shaking my head.Heavy footsteps echoed. The metallic scent of blood. Everything hit me like it was happening all over again—my entire body trembled.I felt a presence, and then a quick but firm grip cupped my cheeks, yanking me closer, and my body stiffened. My chest rose and fell, trying to gasp for every breath I could find.“Becca!” A deep voice called, and hands cupped my cheeks, nudging me gently—pulling me back to reality. “Becca, calm down.”My lips quivered and a hot tear rolled down my cheek as my vision tried to come alive. I saw Kendrick ove

  • Hell Has No Fury: His Ex Wife Revenge   Pressed Against Steel

    REBECCA'S POVI pushed forward, but it only made Kendrick lean in, and I felt his breath on my neck.“Get out, or else I’ll hurt you.”“I’m counting on that… because at least then your eyes will be on me.” His lips curled, and the corner of my eyes twitched.Kendrick’s eyes lowered, and his lips parted like he was staring at the most appetizing dish he had ever seen in his life. The kind that made my heart race like my life depended on it.This feeling was something I had never felt. I took a breath, forcing it down, not willing to admit whatever it was.“If you keep panting that way...” Kendrick rasped, blinking his long, thick, curled-up lashes, and I clenched my fists as his tone trailed. “I might be tempted to silence those perfectly shaped hearts you call lips.”My eyes widened, but I couldn’t move. All I could do was stare—and feel.The sight of him alone in this elevator was suffocating me more than I would care to admit, and my heart kept thudding so fast that the veins at th
