FAZER LOGINChapter 47: Claire And Ryan(Dominic POV)Marcus does not waste time when he walks into my office. He never does. There is a difference between urgency and efficiency, and Marcus has always understood the line between the two. He closes the door behind him, sets a file on the desk in front of me, and says, “You’ll want to read this yourself,” in a tone that tells me he has already gone through it twice.I do not ask questions before opening it. There is no point. If Marcus is bringing it to me like this, then it is already something that requires attention, not discussion.The first page is enough.Claire has not approached this emotionally. That would have been easier to dismantle. Instead, she has gone through Ryan’s company lawyer and framed the entire situation in language that cannot be dismissed quickly. Not accusations, not direct claims, just careful positioning. Words like liability. Exposure. Governance risk. She has outlined
Chapter 46: The Dress Shop(Zara POV)By the time I arrive at the boutique, I am already a few minutes early. Not because I am eager to be there, but because I prefer arriving before the situation starts rather than stepping into it halfway. The place looks exactly like the kind of shop Keisha would choose, polished without being loud, expensive in a way that does not need to prove anything. The lighting is soft but not dim, the kind that lets you see structure clearly, and the dresses are arranged in quiet confidence, like they already know they will be chosen.One of the attendants greets me almost immediately, her smile smooth and practiced. I tell her I am here to meet Keisha, and she nods like she expected it, but she also tells me Keisha has not arrived yet. I check the time. Two minutes past. That alone does not mean anything, but I already know this is not accidental.I thank her and move further inside, taking a seat without asking anything else. There is no point. If Keisha
Chapter 45 : The Invitation(Zara POV)Keisha’s voice on the phone is not the one I’ve learned to associate with her. It is not soft. Not warm. Not even sharp in the usual way.It feels stripped.Like someone removed everything she normally uses to control how she is perceived and left only what remains underneath.“Zara,” she says again, like she is making sure I’m really there.I don’t answer immediately.Because I’m already trying to understand why she is calling me directly.Keisha does not do direct.Not unless she wants something to land in a very specific place.“I saw your message,” I say finally.A pause.Then she continues.“I want to meet,” she says. “In person.”I shift slightly where I’m sitting, Keisha continues before I can respond.“I know we’re not friends,” she says. “I know what happened between us. I know how everythin
Chapter 44 : The Meeting(Zara POV)Monday morning arrives with that strange kind of calm that doesn’t actually feel calm. It just feels like things have paused long enough for you to pretend you’re in control of them.I get to the office twenty minutes early.I don’t rush. I don’t hesitate either. I just walk in like I already know why I’m there and what I’m going to say.The manager’s office is still closed when I arrive, so I sit outside with my portfolio on my lap.Inside it is everything I thought I would need to defend myself if someone ever decided my work could be questioned.Vendor lists. Event timelines. Budget breakdowns. Proof of every decision I made on the gala project. Not because I thought I was going to be attacked like this, but because I’ve learned enough times in life that people don’t always question you fairly. Sometimes they just question you loudly.So I wait.And I stay ca
Chapter 43 : Exam Season(Zara POV)Final year exams don’t really feel like something you prepare for in the moment. They feel like something that has been sitting quietly behind everything else in your life, waiting for you to stop running so it can finally step forward and demand attention.That is what it feels like when I walk into the exam hall that morning.Like everything else I’ve been carrying, Dominic, Claire, Vivienne, Keisha, Ryan, even my mother, has been forced to sit down somewhere far away and shut up for a few hours.I tell myself I should be grateful for that silence.But my body doesn’t fully believe it.I sit in my seat, open my paper, read the first question, and for a few seconds I can actually think only about what is in front of me. That alone feels strange now. Like I have forgotten how to exist without something pulling at the edges of my attention.By the time I finish the first section, I realize I’ve been holding my breath without noticing.When I walk o
Chapter 42 : Damon MovesKeisha POV Keisha is not sleeping properly anymore.It is not the kind of insomnia that feels dramatic or emotional. It is quieter than that. She wakes up at the same hour every night without meaning to, staring at the ceiling, then checking her phone even though she already knows no message will fix anything.The engagement is already in motion.Her mother is excited in a way that feels almost performative now, like she is trying to convince herself that this is exactly how things are supposed to go. Ryan is present, but not emotionally involved in the planning. He agrees when asked, nods when needed, signs what needs to be signed. He is not resisting anything. He is just not fully inside it either.That should have been enough for Keisha to feel stable.It isn’t.Because Damon Crews keeps calling. Not once, not occasionally but consistently.Every two days, sometimes every day depending on how long she ignores him. At first she thought ignoring him would m
