Revenge: Rising Beyond the Tempest Chapter 69: The Photo and the Knock
The morning sunlight streamed softly through the white curtains, casting a golden glow across the old woman’s room. The air was calm and filled with laughter — the kind that could heal wounds deeper than medicine ever could. Celine sat beside the grandmother, both of them sharing stories over a warm cup of tea.The old woman looked far stronger now. Her once trembling hands had steadied, her memory sharper than anyone thought possible. Even the doctors had been amazed. They’d said her dementia was irreversible, yet here she was — remembering faces, events, and even jokes she hadn’t told in years.Celine smiled as she adjusted the blanket on her lap. “You look brighter today,” she said warmly.The grandmother chuckled, her voice soft but clear. “That’s because I have an angel keeping me company.”Celine laughed, shaking her head. “You’ve started again, Grandma. I’m no angel.”The old woman patted her hand affectionately. “You don’t see what I see. Since you came, my mind has found
Revenge: Rising Beyond the Tempest Chapter 68: Another Drastic Hit
At exactly twelve noon, the gates of the Scott mansion swung open to a convoy of six luxurious cars gliding smoothly into the compound. The glint of the sun danced across their polished bodies as uniformed guards hurried into position. The second car, a sleek black Rolls Royce Phantom, came to a slow halt at the center of the compound.The moment the rear door opened, Denmark Scott stepped out — tall, composed, his signature dark shades reflecting authority. The guards instantly dropped to one knee, heads bowed as if before a monarch. His mere presence commanded respect. He glanced briefly at them before walking toward the grand entrance, his steps firm, his expression unreadable.Barbra, who had been anxiously waiting inside, rushed out, her heart pounding. “Daddy!” she called out, trying to sound cheerful but her voice trembled slightly.Denmark paused at the stairs and turned to her. A faint, knowing smile curved on his face. “Barbra? What brings my busy daughter here instead
Revenge: Rising Beyond the Tempest Chapter 67: Finding Peace
Adam sat behind his desk, staring blankly at the papers scattered before him. None of it made sense anymore. Brooks Enterprises had officially hit rock bottom.The deal with O’Neil Corp. was gone. The same board members who once worshiped him now avoided his calls.He leaned back and rubbed his face, his thoughts heavy. Every time he closed his eyes, he saw Celine — calm, composed, and victorious, while he burned in humiliation. He could still hear the whispers from the board meeting, the murmurs of disbelief, the word failure thrown around like confetti.When his secretary came in to ask about his next meeting, he waved her off. “Cancel everything. I’m done for today.”He grabbed his car keys and left the office. He needed air. He needed peace. Or maybe he just needed Barbra — the only person who seemed to understand him in moments like this. As he sat behind the wheel, he exhaled deeply, resting his head against the seat.He unlocked his phone. Dozens of missed calls. Most fro
Revenge: Rising Beyond the Tempest Chapter 66: Investors' Hunt
Barbra sat on the edge of her bed, her eyes swollen from crying. The silence in her father’s mansion was deafening, broken only by the faint ticking of the antique clock on the wall. Her phone lay beside her, screen glowing with unanswered calls — Adam, her father, even the company’s board secretary. Nothing. No one picked.She tried Adam’s number again. The number you’re trying to reach is not available. She sighed, switching to her father’s contact. It rang once, twice, then silence. Her heart thumped. He had seen the news. He knew. Denmark Scott never tolerated failure, not even from his only daughter. Business first, emotions last. That was his creed.When the butler informed her that Mr. Scott was away for a meeting, Barbra decided to wait at the mansion till his return. Maybe then she could explain. Maybe he would understand. She lay back on the bed, eyes fixed on the ceiling, the fear of his disappointment tightening in her chest.*********While Barbra drowned in fear an
Revenge: Rising Beyond the Tempest Chapter 65: The Fall Begins
Celine sat behind her glass desk, the skyline of the city glimmering faintly through the tall windows of her office. As the acting CEO of O’Neil Corporation, she commanded authority that extended far beyond the company’s walls. But beneath the surface of corporate control, her real mission moved quietly — a plan she'd carefully designed, one made to bring Brooks Enterprises to its knees.She leaned forward and opened a folder on her desktop titled Confidential – Brooks Enterprises. It was heavily encrypted, accessible only by her biometric ID. The moment it loaded, dozens of subfolders filled the screen — each one named with precision: Hidden Accounts, Internal Mails, Fraud Reports, Audits – Red Flagged.For months, Celine had gathered the pieces. Using her clearance as Media Manager before her promotion, she had infiltrated communication trails, extracted data from shared servers, and traced money movements across borders. Each document, each screenshot, each internal memo was o

Barbra froze, her heart pounding as her eyes met Celine’s across the conference table. The introductions continued, but she barely heard them. Mr. Gavin nudged her to begin. She swallowed hard, forcing a smile, and stood.“Good morning, everyone,” she began, her voice steadier than she felt. “On behalf of xDragon Corporation, I’ll be presenting—”Celine leaned forward. “Before you proceed, Miss Scott, could you clarify who approved the cost breakdown on page three?”Barbra blinked, caught off guard. “That would be the finance division—”Celine cut in. “You’re heading this project. I asked who in finance approved it. Names matter.”Barbra hesitated. “Mr. Leonard. He oversees our budget projections.”Celine nodded, taking notes. “And the projected delivery timeline - six months? That’s quite ambitious for your current workforce, isn’t it?”Barbra felt heat rising in her cheeks. “We have additional contractors—”“Which firm?” Celine pressed, her tone sharper now.Barbra’s hand trembled
