Revenge, Best Served in Codes 173| It's Over.
CHAPTER 173RHONDAThe drive to the police station felt like a blur. Finally, we’d be able to stop the videos from hitting the internet.By the time I got to the station, Malcolm was already there, standing outside, waiting for me. The moment I stepped out of the car, he walked toward me without hesitation, his eyes scanning my face.“You drove too fast,” he muttered.“I am fine,” I said quickly, even though I was anything but.He looked behind me, “where is Victor and kane?”I quickly moved towards the entrance, “It doesn’t matter if they followed or not. We do not have time to waste.”He followed behind me.We walked into the station together, side by side. All the officers turned their attention turned towards us.“I want to file a report,” I told the man at the counter, “Julian. He has been involved in fraudulent financial activity, theft, and corruption. We have traced connections to shell companies linked to him.”The officer behind the desk blinked slightly, clearly caught off

RHONDAAt first, I thought it was just another one of Theodore’s stupid gimmicks.But the more I thought about it, the more I realized Theodore wouldn’t just say something out of context. But I had no idea what he meant, and my curiosity pushed me to dial his number.He picked up almost immediately.“Rhonda,” Theodore called from the other end of the line.“What the hell was that message?” I demanded immediately, not even bothering to greet him. “What do you mean I had a daughter I never knew about?”“I knew you would call,” he muttered.“Answer the question, Theodore,” I groaned.“You should lower your voice,” he said instead, like he had the right to control anything about me. “Getting worked up will not help you.”“Do not tell me what to do!” I snapped. “What do you mean by that message?”“I got a call,” he said finally. “From a woman. She claimed to be a nurse from Inkstone Hospital.”My heart dropped.“And?” I pressed, my voice coming out tighter now.“She said what happened that

RHONDALearning Julian’s background further solidifies the suspicion that he was both the blackmailer and the one stealing from the company. He was probably doing it for revenge.But even though we knew now that he was the one we were looking for, there was nothing we could do about it yet. Calling him out might provoke him into releasing the videos. And we couldn’t report him because we had no solid evidence.Twenty-four hours was all we had to come up with a solution, else our nudity would be all over the internet.“What do we do now?” I asked, frustrated, as I walked to the coffee area and sat on the sofa.“Now that we know the perpetrator, we’ll get him,” Malcolm muttered. “He won’t get away with this.”“We do not even have solid evidence yet,” I said tiredly. “All we have is just a hunch, Malcolm. A strong one, yes, but still a hunch. Nobody is going to apprehend him because I said I suspect him. He would deny it, act shocked, maybe even turn himself into the victim.”Malcolm’s e
Revenge, Best Served in Codes 170| Twins?
THEODOREI had called Rhonda more times than I was willing to admit, and each time the response was the same. Ringing. Then silence. Then nothing. It was beginning to get under my skin in a way I hated. My jaw had been tight for so long that it was starting to hurt, but I couldn’t relax. I couldn’t stop thinking about that moment in the hospital.The way the doctor had looked between Rhonda and Malcolm and congratulated them. The way she had smiled. The way Malcolm had held her. I had deeply thought about what she would congratulate them for, and the only thing my mind settled on was pregnancy. Was she pregnant?The very thought made something dark and ugly twist inside me. It was ridiculous. I was supposed to be done with her. I was supposed to be moving on. Layla was the one I was making my Luna. Plans were already being made. Arrangements were already in motion. Yet there I was, seated in my office, staring at my phone like a madman because Rhonda would not answer my calls.I dragg
Revenge, Best Served in Codes 169| Twenty-four Hours.
RHONDAThe call with Malcolm had barely ended when my phone vibrated again in my hand. I glanced at the screen, and my heart began to beat really fast when I realized the text was from an unknown number.I opened the message.“You still have the audacity to resume work?”My fingers froze around the phone.Another message came in before I could even process the first.“Twenty-four hours. Quit, or I release the tape to the world.”My throat still felt dry, and I swallowed hard.This wasn’t normal. Other blackmailers would ask for money and keep extorting. But this one wanted me to quit my position as the CEO. What did they stand to gain? How would my resignation benefit them?My brows furrowed as I leaned back in my chair, staring at the message like it would suddenly explain itself. My heart was still beating too fast, my thoughts running in different directions at once.As I continued staring at the message on my screen, my mind immediately went to him.Julian.If he was really who I

RHONDAMy eyes stayed glued to the screen, my heart beating so hard it felt uncomfortable in my chest. I went through the figures again, slower this time, my fingers moving over the laptop with more caution. Maybe I had made a mistake the first time. Maybe I had overlooked something and was now panicking for nothing. But the more I checked, the worse it got. The numbers were there. Clear. Real. Large sums had been moved to offshore accounts. Hidden neatly enough to escape notice at first glance, but not neat enough to escape me now that I was looking properly.“What the actual fuck,” I whispered again, leaning back in my chair.I didn’t even know what disturbed me more. The fact that money was being stolen right under our noses or the fact that the corrected document had almost made me overlook it. That was the part that made my skin crawl. Because if the records had just been tampered with in the system, that was one thing. But someone had taken an extra step. Someone had physically

LAYLASince I found out that Leo wasn’t mine, nothing but resentment filled my chest. For years, I had cared for him and loved him dearly. Had I known that he was that bitch’s, I would’ve found a way to get rid of him. But it wasn’t too late though. He’d become useful in the little plan of mine.“M

THEODOREI was restless, thinking about Rhonda. My ego was badly bruised when she slapped me. I wondered if she had regained her memory. The more she pushed me away, the more I was drawn to her. I needed her more than I cared to admit. With her, my pack and business were stable. She played a crucia

RHONDA“Rhonda!” Theodore growled, his jaw ticking with rage as he took a step forward. “What I will not tolerate is disrespect. You do not disrespect your husband like that.”“Then get away from here!” I retorted strongly.“I am not leaving without you. You are coming with me!” He reached for my h
