My Redemption with Mr. Tycoonย ย ย Outsmarting Oliver Jones
Emilyโs POV.Work was a lot tasking today. I felt so exhausted that I could use a full body massage to relax my tensed nerves. But this is something only a phone call from Christopher would have solved. Sadly, he is pretty occupied today.As soon as I finished the last document I had to review for the day, I shut my computer and left the company, expecting to get home and get some rest only for me return home and see Oliver and his parents sitting in the living room chatting with Mum and Dad.Honestly, I had no idea the Jonesโ would be in our house today even though Mrs. Jones had phoned Mum last night. Although I had heard Mumโs happy voice from the door as I walked a minute ago, it never occured to me that there were only a handful of people she invited home and had this kind of reaction with while chatting, and that the Jones should be the more appropriate family.My stomach churned, especially at the sight of Oliver. I donโt know why he still affected me so badly even though

Brendaโs POV.I have been sitting in my bedroom, impatiently waiting for Oliver to come find me since I heard of his arrival, but I have no idea of what has been keeping him downstairs. If I didnโt have to pretend to be totally helpless, I would have already found my way to the living room long ago. But as if Oliver could sense my displeasure, he knocked softly on my door and came in when I weakly approved. โBabe,โ Oliver called me softly as he quickly rushed over to my side with concern laced in his brows. โHow are you?โ My eyes turned teary as I attempted to sit up on the bed, but he quickly assisted me saying, โYou donโt have to struggle to do this while Iโm here,โ While I enjoy this, I canโt help but actually hope that his mind is still divided. It would be futile for him not to be concerned about Emily and her impending wedding after my efforts last night. I wonโt even let it happen.โI have been waiting for your visit. What took you so long?โ I asked weakly, allowing m

โHoney, you should know my sister doesnโt care about how long she has known this Christopher before deciding to marry him,โ I said to Oliver, my tone dripping with honey. โSo, she only cares about taking revenge on me?โ Oliver asked, meeting my gaze with a scowl sitting on his face. He looked very displeased as if Emily didnโt have any right to do as she pleased with her life. I smirked to myself and slowly nodded in response, as innocence contoured my face. I have to sow more discord why pretending to be oblivious to them. โI believe thatโs what she is thinking about. Also, like I said, this Christopher Moore is from the famous prominent Moore family. Emily will definitely pick him as her partner as along as she feels heโs better than you.โ As I made that striking statement of indirectly calling Oliver inferior, I laughed inwardly as I watched him gnash his teeth from the corner of my eyes. But then, I had to go into another coughing fit as my expression grew weary. Almost i

Emilyโs POV. As the warm water from the shower splashes on my head and pours down my body, I canโt help but think about Christopher and what he was doing now. We didnโt have much time to ourselves at work today and standing under the shower only made me miss him more. Thoughts of Christopher occupied my mind until I turned off the shower and stepped back into my bedroom dressed in my pyjamas. And in my bid to quickly check my phone to see if there has been any text from him yet, I discovered that one of my bags which I returned from work with, was missing. My brows creased in worry as I began to think of the place where I must have left it because I am quite sure that I took both bags with me while leaving my office. โDid I leave it my car or...?โ My thoughts immediately come to a halt when I finally remembered the last possible place where I might have left it. Almost immediately, anger consumed me as I opened my door and stormed out of my bedroom. I canโt imagine that I w

โI just stepped into the office this morning and learned the worst news in recent times since I started work at Transcorp,โ Stella started, turning her full attention to me. And I can tell by the way her jaw flexed that she was trying hard to control her emotions. I pretended not to have any idea of what she was talking about just to be on the safer side and probed, โWhat bad news did you hear?โ โBarbara Collins was promoted and moved from the secretaryโs desk to the Management department. Didnโt you hear about it when you clocked in this morning?โ Stella inquired, narrowing her eyes. I could tell she was just mad at the situation, and not at me, so there wasnโt any need for me to lie to her, especially when she was being so honest with me. โI heard about it,โ I admitted as my shoulders naturally slumped. Iโve been tensed all morning since finding out the news, and I still felt that Christopher owed me some answers. โAnd you have no idea why she was given a promotion she didn

โWhatโs funny?โ Christopher asked in genuine confusion as he met my gaze, but I quickly shook my head, refusing to answer that question. โNothing,โ I smiled at him. โI shall return to my desk. Have a good day, Mr. Moore, and see you at your lunch.โ As soon as I made my statement clear, I opened the door and walked out, shutting it with a soft thud. Then it took me a few moments to recover and adjust my emotions before making my way back to my office. Stella was eagerly waiting for my return which was evident from the way she leaned out of her table as soon as she saw me walk back in. โWhat is Mr. Mooreโs excuse this time around?โ she inquired with her gaze on me and I told her the exact reason Christopher gave to me. โOhโฆโ Stella drawled. She had a mixed expression at the news. While she was happy that Barbara wasnโt promoted because she was deserving of that position, she was still a bit dissatisfied with her. Just like me, she must be wondering if there wasnโt any other w

As soon as I finished making that statement, I brought the glass of champagne to my lips with my left hand to show off my engagement ring. Then I watched with satisfaction as Barbaraโs gaze landed on it as something similar to shock and disbelief flashed across her eyes. It pleased me so greatly to see that reaction on her face.My instincts had told me that she had deliberately bright her friends over to greet me just to prove some kind of point to them.I think she was acting like I had honoured her familyโs invitation for her sake, but my actions to counter that just now hadnโt been planned before hand. It was merely a reflex; something that just happened to take place.As I donโt have the time to entertain Barbaraโs shock, I excused myself from her presence and went away to continue my chats with important men in the industry.---Barbaraโs POV.My head swirled with different unbelievable crazy thoughts as my gaze caught the sparkling jewel sleeked around Christopherโs fin

Sandra and Lucy seem to have forgotten what Iโm made of. I donโt give up easily on anything Iโve set my eyes on unless the chance is 0%. Yes, you heard that right. Even when I failed to secure a job at TRANSCORP, what did I do? In fact, what I did next should let anyone know that I am tenacious. And who can compete with that? --- In quick elegant steps, I arrived in front of my father. And at my presence, he quickly introduced me to the minister of Finance. I exchanged polite pleasantries with the minister before whispering to my Dadโs ear, โDad, please excuse me. I want to have a word with you for a moment.โ The next second, I nodded curtly to the minister with a small polite smile on her lips before leaving. My dad found me alone at a table a minute later and joined me. โAnd what has my beautiful princess got to say to me?โ he asked, a proud smile on his lips as he admired my beauty. Dad loved Mum a lot as I was their only child, he cherished me a lot, and

My Redemption with Mr. Tycoonย ย ย I Could Rely on Him
Emily.โYou know, sometimes, I wonder what you saw in me,โ I said to Christopher as we suddenly stood at a spot, staring into each otherโs eyes. But in the end, I had to look away. I couldnโt hold his gaze for long. โWhat is there not to see in you? So you need me to spell them out to you?โ Christopher asked me.I caught his amused gaze from the corner of my eyes and quickly shook my head. I donโt need to hear him telling me all those sugary-coated words. Even if he meant them. โYou donโt need to. I think I already get them. And your stare says a lot,โ I said, meeting his gaze briefly before swinging his arm, gesturing for us to continue the walk.And when I thought that he was going to lead me into the driveway properly, he lead me to take a turn by our left and it immediately, it occured to me that he might just be taking me towards the backyard. โEmily, tell me what my stare says?โ Christopher probed, tilting his head to the side.A sheepish smile lightly masked my face

Emily.It is with so much relief on my heart that Christopher and I are walking right next to each other without any other human to interfere.Tessa is my best girl. She read the situation and then proceeded to an act. Mum almost ruined it though by trying to make Brenda follow us.I donโt know what she was thinking when she brought up that idea. I bet she didnโt know she looked empty in front of the Moore family for what she did.If I wasnโt so sure that Mum would never want to jeopardize her bidding relationship with the Moore family, I would have thought she was thinking of making Christopher interested in Brenda. I hope Iโm not wrong.Because, I havenโt forgotten the fact that Mum was going to help Brenda marry Christopher instead after Brenda found out Christopherโs identity and cried to her that she wanted him.To think Mum had been foolish to even consider her request and even proceed to act on it.Today made me realize that there was probably nothing Mum could not do fo

If I didnโt know what Brenda was like, I would have fallen for her stunt but thankfully, I would never be deceived by her. But my family was different.They donโt know Brenda is a white lotus and a green tea bitch.And although I would like to expose that witch right in front of them, now wasnโt the time as it could ruin things for Emily. Besides, I can still deal with Brenda on my own.She doesnโt know whose lands she is stepping on.The awkward silence stretched enough to erupt Chrisโs anger. He wasnโt a fan of Brenda, thanks to the true stories I told him about how Emily used to be bullied by her, and her mother.But before things could get out of hand; like Chris displaying an

Tessa. Grandpaโs talks were getting boring. From taking about the wedding, he shifted focus to business, engaging Emilyโs dad in the conversation.Mr. Wilsonโs eyes was full of smiles as he immediately connected to the conversation. After all, the business deal was the reason for his happiness, not his daughterโs marriage. I rolled my eyes inwardly as the silence on my part stretched. And that was when my gaze fell on my cousin, Chris. He was looking my way but I could bet it wasnโt me he was staring at.There was someone he had come to adore who was sitting next to me.From the corner of my eyes, I caught Emily looking back at Chris. And instantly, a smile appeared on my lips.These two looked tired of sitting at a place with no opportunity to interact with each other. Unfortunately for them, Grandpa was so old fashioned that he doesnโt have any innovative ideas in regards to this aspect.He doesnโt understand that the future couple need to spend more time together to know
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoonย ย ย Golden Treatment
While Iโm happy someone from the Moore family came to my defence which is proof they had accepted me, I couldnโt help but be mad at Mum.What she just displayed was evidence of how bias she was to Brenda. She just showed the Moore family that I am the less preferred. Which is stupid.I donโt care that Mum loves Brenda with all her life. At least, she should tame her emotions and obsession outside. Even Dad who was alert, seemed to disapprove of Mumโs actions in front of the Moore family. I could tell by the way he touched the back of her hand while gazing elsewhere.And I would like to think that he was more disappointed because she and Brenda had indirectly told them they didnโt like the work they did with my wedding invitation cards.Soon, the awkwardness hanging in the air disappeared along with Tessaโs presence. Tessa arrived with a warm smile on her face , especially after she saw me. But the second she noticed Brenda, I saw her smile crack.I perfectly understand my fri
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoonย ย ย Whatever the Bride Wants
I felt Brendaโs discomfort as Grandpa Moore engaged me in a conversation. I think sheโs crazy for even wanting the Moore familyโs attention on her. Brenda is nothing short of a heavily delusional psychopath who doesnโt have a limit to her actions. Why on earth would she be mad that all attention was on me now? Somehow, I wished that Brenda will be taken away from my side. I donโt like sitting beside her and assimilating her negative energy. It makes me more mad. Unfortunately, I donโt have any other option. From talking about work, Grandpa shifted the conversation, mentioning the wedding which was in a few weeks. Uncle Frederickโs wife mentioned the wedding invitation cards were ready. A minute later, their family butler brought a square-shaped box with a red ribbon at the top. โThey arrived this morning,โ Grandpa Moore revealed with a smile before turning to Christopher to give him a glance. Then Mum used the opportunity to say her thoughts. โI think we should unveil the
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoonย ย ย Her Turn
โThank you for caring this much about my daughter,โ Mum said, her eyes lighting up like fireworks. Then almost immediately, she dragged Brenda into the conversation. โBrenda, you have to thank Mr. Moore.โ And as if Brenda was just waiting for the right moment to show herself, she took Mumโs leading and turned her attention to Grandpa Moore. โThank you, grandpa for your well wishes,โ she said softly before turning to Christopherโs uncles to do the same. โ... I deeply appreciate your concern.โ It was so hard keeping a straight face when anger was about to consume me whole. Brenda spoke so endearingly as if she was the one marrying into the Moore family. It canโt be jealousy driving me at this point. Also, Iโm not being paranoid. I have every reason to be furious at Mum and Brenda. I donโt know who is more dumb between the two but finally after analyzing the situation, I realised that Mum was the foolish one because how can you try to get Brenda into the Moore familyโs good bo

โThe patriarch and his family are all waiting in the living room. I will lead the way,โ the butler informed Mum and Dad while gesturing towards the buildingโs entrance. โSure,โ Dad muttered as he and Mum quickly started to walk behind the butler and in no time, my steps and Brendaโs fall into place behind our parentsโ. The Moore residence was nothing like anything we had seen. It had this vintage style to the building whereas inside the house, the decors and styles were modernized, making it look like there have been a renovation in recent times. Brenda and I couldnโt help staring at the intricate designs on the walls, and the beautiful sculpture pieces inside the building. But I made sure my fascination was masked with a subtle elegance. Stepping into the grand living room with a splash of pure gold used in the interior decor, we meet the members of the Moore family rising to their feet with welcoming smiles on their faces. Within a few seconds, my gaze swiftly moved from on
My Redemption with Mr. Tycoonย ย ย The Moore Family Residence
As Mum and Dad went over to the first car, Brenda got in next to me and slowly secured her seatbelt. Next, she turned to me, her lips parting several times before finally bringing forth a word. โEmily, how do I look tonight? Do you think my lipstick is a little too dull?โ Instantly, my eyes narrowed into splits as I briefly turned my gaze to her. What nonsense?! Is this witch actually asking me how she looks tonight? Is she on something? What kind of delusion gave her the effrontery to even say a word to me, talk more of trying to make me gauge her looks tonight? There could be only one reason for Brenda being high this evening. Her senses have returned. I feel Brenda deserves a beating for her annoying thoughtless provoking actions right now. She only acts out of point and looks for my trouble when she was her usual self. I guess she has actually made full recovery from the surgery. My stare on Brenda conveyed my deep hatred for her and I guessed just for a tiny
