"Guess what? My boyfriend will be here any minute now," Mabel Scott sneered.

"You two wannabe socialites better think fast. Are you going to apologize properly, or should I toss you out on your ears?"

My bestie, Whitney Larson, shook with fury, her voice rising as she said, "Clean up your act!

"Who are you calling wannabe socialites? We paid for our classes; they weren't freebies. Is this how you talk to your clients? Or is this gym not interested in staying open?"

Mabel snickered behind her hand, her voice dripping with contempt as she said, "Look at this, folks!

"She's been called out, and now she's lashing out in a fit! She's going wild like a shrew!

"Ouch! Did that hit a nerve? With your bargain-bin looks, do you even have 100 bucks to your name?

"Socialites? Please. Real socialites have their heads in the clouds. Who else would tire themselves out over a measly 10-dollar trial class?"

She twisted her mouth in disgust. "Just one look, and it's clear you're desperate, hoping to snap a few flirty pics at this fancy gym to land a rich guy on social media, huh?

"Too bad, your little scheme's a bust! The guys here can spot a cheap knockoff a mile away!"

"You!" Whitney quivered with anger, ready to confront her.

I held her back, my eyes like steel. "Coach, you seem pretty savvy. Surely you're not spending your days trying to snag a rich catch yourself?"

Mabel's voice oozed pride as she said, "Landing a rich catch isn't that easy. You've got to have something to offer. With your plain-Jane looks, no amount of effort will cut it.

"I'm not like you guys; I've got curves in all the right places, and I've already landed myself a real catch of a fiancé. He even opened this gym just for me.

"I've called him already. Just you wait. I'll show you two losers the kind of man I've got."

"Bring it on; let's see this amazing fiancé of yours who's into...whatever you call that," Whitney retorted.

Mabel's face turned stormy, and with a huff, she said, "Jealous much? My man will be here any minute, and you'll both see what a true catch looks like! Then you can kiss your hopes goodbye!"

Whitney yanked her hand away from mine, whipped out her phone, and shoved the screen in Mabel's face.

"Take a good look! Do I look like I need to chase after a rich fiancé? I've got suitors lined up from here to Timbuktu! My husband could run circles around your so-called catches. What are you even yapping about here like a stray?"

The screen displayed Whitney's messenger list, shining with names like Mr. Wallace of the Wallace Group, Director Robinson's heir, and the hotshot movie star, each one more impressive than the last.

Right at the top, with a heart emoji and the name "Honey" next to his picture, was James Baker, the CEO of Riverton City's Baker Group.

Mabel's face twisted with rage, and in a swift motion, she smacked Whitney's phone out of her hand. It hit the ground, and the screen splintered into a web of cracks.

"You've lost your mind!" Whitney shrieked, her eyes blazing with fury.

"Me? Crazy? Looks like you're the ones who've lost it!" Mabel yelled, her voice laced with hysteria. "All this fuss over a silly messenger app nickname? Anyone can change that; it's no big deal!

"And you! Acting all rich and playing with people's hearts, keeping a lineup of backups like you're some kind of player. You've got no shame! A woman like you must have been tossed around so much that you're nothing but damaged goods now!"

The receptionist whipped out her phone and started a live stream, pointing the lens directly at us.

"Hey, guys, check this out! We've got a couple of weirdos in the shop.

"They waltzed in here for the ten-dollar trial class, got caught by Ms. Scott trying to snag a sugar daddy, and now they're throwing punches and losing it. Her phone's always buzzing with backups, and she's basically the queen of the dating game!"

She kept talking, shoving the camera in my and Whitney's faces. "Let's give everyone a good look at who you really are!"

I quickly pulled Whitney behind me and shouted, "You're violating our rights to privacy and our own images!

"Shut that video off! You think I won't call the cops and get a lawyer to shut this place down?"

    Sirens blared as the ambulance raced to the scene.Whitney and Mabel were each hoisted onto separate stretchers and loaded into different ambulances.James stayed by Whitney's side, casting a lingering look at Charles before they departed.My father, Thomas, sat calmly at the reception desk, meticulously cleaning his hands."Break those trainers and toss them out," he commanded the bodyguards with a chilling detachment, referring to the male coaches who had caused the trouble."Understood!"The bodyguards sprang into action, and the once formidable coaches were reduced to nothing more than broken figures, dragged away like lifeless carcasses."As for this one…" My dad's icy eyes settled on the trembling girl at the front desk.The receptionist stood rooted to the spot, pleading for mercy. "Please, Mr. Canfield, have mercy! It was all Mabel's idea! I had nothing to do with it!""Ruin her face," my dad ordered without a hint of emotion. "The Canfields are not to be trifled with

    Charles's face went white as a sheet, his voice quivering with fear as he said, "Mr. Canfield? Mr. Baker? What...what are you doing here?""Dad, you're here at last." I stumbled toward him and clung on for dear life.Holding me close, my dad whispered, "Yasmin, it's okay, I've got you."My little girl, who did this to you?" he demanded, his voice booming through the gym.There was only silence. No one dared to make a peep."Whitney!" James's voice tore through the air, raw with agony. "Someone call an ambulance, now!"Don't be scared, Whitney. I'm right here. We're going to get you to the hospital, and our baby...our baby's going to be just fine."The bodyguards were already on their phones, calling for help."Charles," James spat, his anger palpable. "If anything happens to my wife or my child, I swear the Johnsons will pay with their lives!"Charles, terror flooding his eyes, could not even speak.Mabel gripped Charles's arm, her voice quivering as she said, "Charles, who a

    Mabel nestled smugly against him and mouthed a silent taunt at me, saying, "Yes, what's it to you?"Charles's face turned a sickly shade of grey, and he inhaled sharply. "Yasmin, let's discuss this at home. I don't have time for this circus."I own part of this business. You making a scene here is a slap in my face. Apologize to Mabel right now, take your entourage, and leave, or don't expect me to play nice because of our marriage.""Our marriage?" I burst out laughing with a mix of anger and disbelief. "Charles, you dare to invoke our marriage?"Where was this marital consideration when you were setting up your mistress with houses and cars, letting her parade around with my stuff, using my name to strut her stuff?"You just stood there while she and her cronies attacked me…and Whitney. Did our marriage mean nothing to you?"And now you want to talk about love and affection?"Aren't you sickened by yourself?"Mabel, with tears streaming down her face, stirred the pot. "Charle

    Charles swatted my hands away without so much as a glance in my direction, his voice laced with revulsion as he said, "Who said you could lay a finger on my woman? Have you forgotten who I am? I am Charles Johnson. Looks like you've got a death wish."With that, he tossed me aside and turned to Mabel.Mabel, teetering, threw herself into Charles's embrace. "Charles! You're here at last! I was so scared!" She whimpered, her voice quivering with feigned tears. "They picked on me when you were gone!"I warned them, seeing they were here for the 10-dollar trial class, thinking they might stir up trouble. I was only being nice, and they lost it, attacking me! They even had the nerve to insult me, calling me shameless..."She's just jealous of our success, I bet. Brought her friends over to our place to wreak havoc, break stuff, and hurt several of our coaches."And now, she's trying to kill me! Charles, look at my face, all scratched up! They've got to pay for this!""This wretched wo

    The male trainers encircling us halted abruptly, their eyes instinctively darting to Mabel.Mabel's gaze locked onto the badge in my grasp, a glint of suspicion in her eyes.I surveyed the room with a frosty glare. "Look closely! This badge represents the Canfield Group's authority in Riverton City!"Only five exist in all of Riverton! It's worth this rundown gym a hundred times! Is this enough to confirm who I am?"I won't forget what's happened here today, the way you've treated me, my best friend, and the Baker family's heir-to-be."Then, my voice turned to ice as I said, "I, Yasmin, vow that each of you will regret this!"The gym was enveloped in an eerie hush.The receptionist's hands shook as she clutched her phone, and a look of terror was etched on the male trainers' faces.However, Mabel let out a roar of laughter. "Oh, bravo! What a performance! You should take a bow!"Frightened? Don't be ridiculous! She's fooled all of you! A pathetic scrap of fake metal, and she t

    "You're going to sue us? Be my guest! Oh, I'm shaking in my boots," Mabel mocked, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Don't bother calling the cops or anyone else. It won't help you!""My boyfriend's got clout. He's Charles Johnson, the chairman of the Johnson Group in Riverton City. A world of wealth and power you can't even dream of, you lowly commoner!"The chairman of the Johnson Group? That was my husband, Charles!A chilling dread shot through me from head to toe, my blood turning to ice.I fought down the surprise, my voice rough with disbelief as I said, "Oh? The CEO of the Johnson Group? Are you sure about that?"I heard Mr. Johnson's been hitched for ages. If you're really his girl, doesn't that make you the mistress?"Mabel stood tall, her pride shining through. "Mistress? You don't have a clue!"She whispered conspiratorially, "That marriage of his is just a business deal, all for show!"He's sick of that dull wife of his, who can't even have kids! His heart belongs t
