Margaux just had one ultimate dream, it's to marry the man she loved, Hendrix Mondragon. And after successfully achieving that dream, she thought everything was perfect and nothing matters anymore. But three years later, she was forced to sign the divorce paper and left with a broken heart. Little did they know she’s the hidden heiress of a very powerful and affluent family. Thus, when she showed herself again, she made sure that everyone who did her wrong will certainly pay, especially her husband who abandoned her for his mistress.

She felt another squeeze in her hand but that time, it was a little tight that she thought Hendrix would crush it. “You are so hopeless,” he said, which made her head immediately snap towards him. Her chest tightened as she thought he was talking to her. But seeing him looking fiercely at Liana, she realized it was for the Princess who had suddenly gone real mad. Hendrix pulled her closer to him until her body bumped against his hard chest. She then felt his other hand snaked around her waist and securely held her as though someone was going to snatch her from him. “You don’t deserve to be a princess,” he continued. “Your attitude is way worse than those delinquents who neglected educations and never knew about good manners and right conduct”To say she was shocked was understatement. Margaux didn’t expect the sudden turn of events because seriously, she was already planning to just ignore Liana the whole time while she wa
“What is that for?” Liana seemed weary as she stared at the recordings in her hand. Margaux tilted her head and grinned at her cousin, “I believe you are not as stupid as your secretary,” she muttered, “You clearly know why I am here so stop playing dumb and pretend that you don’t know what this is for..” Liana pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. While her eyes stayed in her hand.She took a step backwards and slowly hid her hands behinds. Her lips then curved upward when Liana lifted her gaza and met hers. “You want to take it?” she queried. The woman remained silent still and just narrowed her eyes towards her. But it didn’t escape from her keen eyes how Liana clenched her fists while trying to keep her innocent facade. “You can keep that. That’s useless anyway,” Liana smiled widely at her.Taken aback Margaux raised an eyebrow as she stared at her cousin. She didn’t expect her to say that. Her confidence was surprising, as she knew for the fact that the recording was a
Margaux stopped just right behind Liana and folded her arms. Her eyebrows instantly furrowed upon seeing Hendrix's swollen face. “How did you get in?” Liana scowled at her. Instantly, her gaze shifted to her cousin. She wanted to answer Hendrix's question right away, but she didn't want to miss the chance to see her defeated face. Raising her eyebrows, she flashed her a sardonic grin. “I entered through the gate,” she said sarcastically. “Why do you look surprised? Did you instruct the securities to not let me in?” She mentally laughed when Liana didn't respond and just clenched her fists while giving her a deadly glare.It was a sight to see the princess losing her composure because she was really good at keeping her facade and acting nonchalant in everything.“You won't be able to step your foot here again if I did that. I was just wondering why you came back,” Liana shrugged. Margaux narrowed her eyes when the woman quickly avoided her gaze. The corner of her lips then curved
“How dare you talk to her like that?! You need to be punished for not respecting our Princess!” Liana’s secretary screamed angrily. Hendrix scoffed. His eyes never left Liana who seemed to be in utter shock. “Respect?” he grinned mockingly, “You don’t deserve that from me,” he said bluntly. “Shut up! You don’t know her at all!” the secretary exclaimed.He shook his head. He then turned to his side and looked at her coldly. “Criminals doesn’t deserve to be respected by their victims”The room instantly went silent after that. The woman froze and her jaw dropped open while staring at her incredulously. He already said that he was not going to tolerate them anymore. He had already been kind enough to her that he didn’t do anything when she tried to use him. “I'm not a criminal,” Liana finally spoke, cutting the deafening silence for quite long. “Kidnapping and detaining someone is a crime and people who do crimes are called criminals,” He said sarcastically. Loud gasps could be he
“Margaux already knew what?” Hendrix immediately asked as he tried to free his arms from the soldiers' tight grips. “Tell me!” he demanded impatiently. “Shut up and walk inside!” one of them kicked him on the shin hard enough that caused him to fall on his knees with a loud grunt. ‘Fvck!’ he cursed mentally.He had no intention to follow them. He was not one of them to comply nor a scaredy cat to obey. However, those soldiers were really ruthless, because before he could even recover from the pain, they already pulled him up harshly then dragged him again inside the main door like he was just a useless thing. Despite his protest and struggles, his strength was no match with two people who were twice bigger than him. He felt humiliated. As it was the very first time someone treated him like that. He was used to people lowering their heads when they saw him. They even avoided him for they were scared to offend him with their existence. Gritting his teeth, he never felt so useless.
“This is not good,” Liana muttered. Hendrix grimaced when one the servant pressed a pack of ice on his swollen cheek a little harder. His thick eyebrows furrowed then as he was confused about what Liana was talking about. “I can't go out with you looking like that,” she continued while shaking her head. But before he could voice out his confusion, Margaux, Liana's secretary, suddenly entered the room while panting. “Your Highness, we have a problem,” she rattled, panicking. Shr then didn't wait for Liana to ask and immediately gave her phone to her boss, which piqued Hendrix's curiosity as the princess' reaction was priceless. “I hate her! She's really going to ruin me!” Liana screamed before marching out of the room. Hendrix scowled at Margaux. He didn't want to speak to him but he didn't want to be left in the dark. Fortunately, the woman didn't wait for him to say something and quickly faced him with an enraged expression as though he was the culprit who made her boss mad.
Margaux gave Carlos detailed instructions before ending the call. The enormous living room was silent once again and everyone was looking at her in puzzlement. “Aren't you officially divorce already?” Daisy frowned at her. “Yes,” she answered curtly. “Then why are you releasing his marriage certificate? And it was not even valid because you used your fake name when you signed it,” her cousin pointed out. Her lips pursed as it was one of the things she both regretted and felt relieved that she did at the same. Regret because she couldn't fully use it to throw it in Liana and her parents' face. While she felt relieved because she was still smart to not let herself be tied with Hendrix completely. “It's better that way. At least she wouldn't get involved in their mess,” Felissa muttered. Daisy nodded briefly before tilting her head after a few seconds, “What if they revealed the truth? Isn't it just going to be another problem?” Margaux thought about it for a second. It will likel
Margaux didn't remember what happened, but the next thing she knew, they were already back in the manor. Daisy was holding on to her as they walked in the living room. Her chest was pounding erratically while she was still in shock by the news.“Margaux..” Felissa hastily went to her as soon as she saw them. “Are you okay?” she queried worriedly. “What happened? Did they announce it in front of you,” Don Geronimo inquired when she didn't respond to her mother. “Hendrix said he was not interested in Liana in front of the King and Queen. He made it clear that she had no chance so we thought she already gave up,” Daisy stated. Margaux felt her mother squeezed her hands. “The announcement seemed rushed. Did something happen after he said that?” Felissa asked curiously. “I think that's their back up plan,” Daisy chirped. “They initially wanted to arrange Jack with Liana that's why they invited him in. However, his parents didn't come.. I confronted them bout that and told them he's al
Jack started the engine but before the car moved, tons of guards already surrounded them and pointed their guns at them which made them gasp loudly. Margaux’s breath hitched as her eyes widened as she watched those soldiers outside the window. Suddenly, she felt like a criminal who got caught escaping. “What the hell are you doing, Liana?!” Daisy scowled as she opened the window on her side, “Do you know that this is illegal?” she hissed. Liana on the other hand ignored Daisy and started knocking the window at the backseat instead. “We will stay here until you get out of that car, Margaux,” she warned. She was confused as to what the woman really wanted from her. It was already clear that she would no longer tolerate her and would never hesitate to punish her if she went overboard once again. Her forehead creased while staring at Liana, contemplating whether to comply or let all of them rot there. “Are you scared of me?” the woman suddenly queried while wearing a sly smile as s
