Lacy's POV

It's been two weeks since my mother fell from the bed while trying to go to the restroom, and since then she has been hospitalised. Her ever-reliable nurse has always been present to take care of her even at the hospital. She had taken a few days off to attend to some personal issues. The reason she wasn't with her when she fell. Xavier, Chrissy and I were so engrossed in our discussion that we didn't hear her call for help.

After a week of taking care of Mom, I moved into my offici

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    GLOW IS NOT FOR SALE

    Author’s Narration (Hidden Valley) "Why this place?" Zella said lightly as she sat across from Dave Crown at the quiet café tucked inside Hidden Valley. She glanced around the nearly empty space before smirking. "Planning to murder me somewhere secluded?" Dave did not smile. "You’re still joking at a time like this?" he said, his expression grim. "What else should I do?" Zella shrugged and drained the cup of tea in front of her before placing it back on the table with a soft clink. "Cry?" She leaned back lazily. "Whatever you called me here for, say it quickly." Dave stared at her for a moment before speaking. "Everyone knows." Zella blinked. "Everyone knows… what?" "That you’re the hidden boss of Glow Cosmetics," Dave said bluntly. "Everyone." Zella widened her eyes innocently. "The hidden boss of what? I’m afraid I'm lost here." "Zella," Dave called wearily. "Stop pretending. Lizzie saw you at the company. She already told my father and the Simone family." He paused. "

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    WHAT?

    Authors Narration SLAM!! Francis Crown’s fist slammed heavily against the table. "Get Dave here right now!" The impact sent several photographs sliding across the surface before tumbling to the floor. "Yes, sir!" The assistant flinched slightly before hurrying out of the office. "My father wants to see me?" Dave Crown leaned back in his chair, studying the assistant who had just delivered the message. "Why?" "I’m not sure, young master," the assistant replied carefully. "But… the boss didn’t look pleased." Dave’s eyes narrowed slightly. "Not pleased? What did I do this time?" He drummed his fingers lazily against the desk. "You’re his assistant. Surely you know something." "I—" The man hesitated. Dave waved him off with mild impatience. "Forget it. Whatever it is, I’ll hear it soon enough. You may leave." The moment the assistant stepped out of the room, the relaxed smile on Dave’s face vanished. His gaze hardened. He hummed softly under his breath as he stared

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    PLAN B II

    Lizzie’s POV That moment when I stepped out of the Simone patriarch’s study, I knew I had just walked into the lion’s den and walked out alive. That alone would have been enough to shake most people, but I had long since trained myself to remain calm under pressure. If my plan about exposing the owner of Glow Cosmetics succeeded, then wealth and influence would soon fall into my hands. But if that plan somehow failed, I had already prepared a second path. A backup. A safety net. And that safety net was Harry Simone. He was drunk, and anything could happen which one won't recollect while drunk. What a perfect plan B thought. I followed the corridor which I saw Harry and that maid went through earlier. That was when I heard a strange noise from one of the rooms. At first it sounded like someone groaning in pain, followed by the clatter of a glass bottle rolling across the floor. Curious, I moved closer and realized the door was slightly open. Through the narrow gap I saw Harry s

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    PLAN B I

    Harry’s POV "Ahhhh!" I woke with a groan, clutching my head with both hands as pain throbbed behind my eyes. "How much did I drink?" I muttered hoarsely. My head feels like it's splitting apart. I rolled across the bed in discomfort—and suddenly rolled against something soft. Human. My eyes snapped open. The haze of alcohol disappeared instantly as I jerked upright and hurriedly pulled on my pants. A woman lay on my bed. She was half-covered in nothing but a shirt and underwear, her back turned toward me. "What…?" My mind froze. "How is this possible?" I stepped away from the bed slowly, staring at her as if she might vanish if I blinked. I tried to remember what had happened the previous night, but the memories were fragmented and unreliable. If she woke up now, things would become complicated. I should leave. Yes. That would be best. I quietly turned toward the door, hoping to slip out before she woke. Unfortunately, fate was not on my side. The woman stirred. Then she sat up s

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    THE HIDDEN BOSS II

    Lizzie’s POV "What are you doing here? Have you not embarrassed yourself enough?" Ann Simone, the Madame of the Simone family, looked at me with open disdain. "I came here on important business," I replied with a polite smile. "For a deal like the one I carry, embarrassment becomes a secondary concern." Not even the slightest hint of offence touched me. I could see the suspicion forming on Madame Ann’s face. She clearly sensed something was unusual and looked as though she wanted to dig the secret out of me immediately. But before she could even ask another question, her husband's secretary approached and gestured toward me. "What is it… come in. The master wants to see you." Perfect timing. As I walked past Madame Ann, I leaned closer and whispered into her ear. "It was nice meeting you, madame. I am even more pleased by the possibility that we will be seeing each other every day from now on." I stepped away and caught the expression on her face. Her brows tightened in confu

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    THE HIDDEN BOSS

    Author's Narration "Mike, tell me you got something good?" Zella massaged her forehead as she walked into the conference room with Mike. Massaging the spot between her brows was a subconscious habit Zella had whenever she was nervous or extremely excited. "For now, nothing. The production ingredients seem to have vanished into thin air, but not to worry. I have leads on some that will arrive later this evening; I will make sure to procure them," Mike said as he placed several files neatly on Zella's desk. "Hmmm!" Zella sighed deeply. "System, are you sure you have not left me? Come to think of it, this is exactly the type of situation where other people's systems jump in eagerly to help their hosts. But you..." She paused briefly before shaking her head. "Forget it." Her voice was low, almost inaudible, as she mumbled under her breath. Mike lightly tapped the table before speaking again. "Are you sure that Mr Crown is behind this? If it were him, he should have made a move by

    Lacy's POV "Yes. I was actually going to introduce her to everyone. Just that I forgot she was with me because of the condition I found you both." "You've not answered Xavier's question."

    Lacy's POV "What the fuck is happening here!" I scream. I don't even know why I screamed that much. Chrissy is on Xavier's bed, both of them in a relaxing way as if they had just concluded the fourth round of a very passionate sex. "Lacy girl, calm down ok, we were going to tell you. We were w
