Reclaiming My Worth: The Rejected Plus-Sized Wife Chapter 86
GarethI’d barely stepped into my office when my assistant approached.“Good morning, Mr. Sterling. Someone’s been waiting for you.”“Who?”“Me.”I heard a familiar voice behind me. It had to be Viviana. I turned, and sure enough, there she was.“Wow.” I blinked. “You’re the last person I expected to see today, much less this early.”“At least show a little excitement,” Viviana said, stepping closer to hug me.We hugged briefly, and I led her into my office.“Every time I visit, Vellum seems even more impressive than before.”“We try to do our best.”“And it shows. I’m really proud of you, Gareth. I know how hard you’ve worked for this.”“Thank you, Viviana. That means a lot coming from you.”She smiled warmly.“I didn’t think you’d be back in town so soon even though my mother had mentioned it. I’m still surprised how much of a relationship you have with her.”She looked at me with a fond smile. “You know how much I’ve always loved her. I think you’re so lucky your mom is super cool.

Gareth“Apparently, both of you wanted the same property, and both actually paid for it.”I dropped my pen, startled by what Renata had said.“Explain.”“After my call to the owners yesterday, I later met with them in the evening, after they had completed their investigation.”“And?”“The sale to Vellum was legitimate, and you were the only authorized buyer. The problem started when an employee sold the same property to Mr. Nolan.”“This means Tristan’s claim to the piece of land isn’t entirely baseless?”“They aren’t but at the same time he can’t claim it when the deal with you was closed already.”“How about the said employee?”“He quit months ago, and the interesting part is that the money was never deposited into the company’s account.”My eyebrows knitted together. “So, Tristan was swindled?”Renata let out a small laugh. “That’s exactly what happened.”“So what does this discovery serve us now?”“His legal team threatened to sue them for breach of agreement, but the agreement w

CamilleTeresa leaned closer, studying the photograph on the screen. Her expression changed immediately.“Is that you?”“Yes. Outside Evelyn’s house.”“Wait, who sent this?”“It’s from an unknown number. But here’s the follow-up message.”Teresa glanced through the message. This is weird. Why do I feel like it could be the same man from today?“That’s what I thought too. I’m glad you noticed the connection.”“Oh, my goodness. Then he’s really a creep.” She frowned, looking genuinely disturbed. “This is strange. I wonder how long he’s been doing this.”“I don’t know. That’s what worries me. He was only bold enough to come directly today, but apparently he’s been watching me for a while now.”“That’s frightening. How did he even get your number and what do you think he wants with you?”“I have no idea.”Teresa scoffed. “This isn’t normal. He needs to be reported.”“Exactly. I can’t take this lightly. First he shows up here without an appointment, admits to following me, and now he’s sen

CamilleThe first thing I noticed when I walked into the office was Teresa’s expression.She looked up from her desk, hesitated briefly, then returned her attention to the computer.“Teresa? Is there anything you’d like to tell me?”“Good morning, ma’am.”I studied her for a moment. “Good morning, Teresa.”“Someone came looking for you earlier.”“Okay. And?”“A man, actually. He didn’t have an appointment but insisted he needed to see you.”I pulled out my chair. “Did he say what it was about?”“He said it was personal.”I paused, taken aback. “Personal?”Teresa nodded. “I asked him to leave his name and contact details, but he refused. He only asked when you would be coming in.”“Did you tell him?”“I said I wasn’t sure.”“What did he look like?”“He looked like he could be in his forties. Tall, dark hair. He was wearing a grey suit.” She paused. “What was interesting was, he didn’t seem particularly pleased when I told him he couldn’t see you without an appointment.”I let out a qui

Camille“So what do you think?” I looked around the spacious living room, taking in the high ceilings and glass doors overlooking the ocean.“It’s a beautiful property,” I said. “But I think the current layout could work much harder for you. The living area feels disconnected from the terrace, and I’d like to create a more natural flow between the two spaces.”Evelyn nodded, smiling.“That’s exactly why I wanted you here. Julian thinks the house is perfect as it is, but I know something’s missing.”I smiled. “Most men think everything you wouldn’t like looks great. Until they see something better.”She laughed. “You hit the nail on the head. My husband thinks he has excellent taste.”“Does he?”“Absolutely not.” I laughed, opening my tablet.“Then I suppose I’ll have to convince him otherwise.”"Good luck with that. He’s stubborn and thinks I just want to throw money around.”“I think I’ve heard most wives say that about their husbands. He’ll see the difference in the end.”“Surely,

Gareth “Gareth,” Renata said as soon as I answered. “I’ve gone through the documents again, and I found something.”“Tell me. What is it?”“I spoke with the previous owner. He insists he never sold that piece of land to Tristan.”I sat up. “Are you sure?”“That’s what he told me. He said the only sale he agreed to was to was the one to Vellum.”“So how did Tristan’s name get on the record?”“He couldn’t explain that. I’m still looking into it.”I rubbed my forehead. “Find out what’s actually going on. I want answers. We need to know if the man is trying to play smart by selling the land twice.”“I’ll keep you updated, Gareth.”“Please do.”I ended the call, my eyes returning to the pile of work I still had on my desk.A knock sounded at the door.Damon walked in looking exhausted.“I see you’ve had a busy morning as well,” he said, glancing at the files on my desk.“Unfortunately.”He pulled out a chair. “So, any word from Renata?”“Yes. She called a while ago with nothing solid.”“
