The Perfect Enemy Part 17
I step into the room, and all I could hear was Beverly's uncle shouting! “It was him! Wasn’t it? Where is that good-for-nothing bum? Beverly? Tell me where that loser is hiding!”“Uncle, I don’t know where he is, but he’s not coming here,” she said, barely able to speak as she sniffled tearfully.“Oh my darling, Beverl,y please stop crying and tell us—why did that call upset you so much?” the bride's aunt gently probed, her voice laced with worry.Beverly’s sobs echoed through the room, echoing her anguish as she buried her face in her uncle's handkerchief. When she finally looked up, her eyes glistened with tears, mascara beginning to run like dark rivers down her cheeks. The moment she caught sight of Lynette in the doorway, her sorrow melted away momentarily, and she sprang to her feet, rushing to embrace her dear friend with an urgency that spoke volumes. Beverly’s body trembled, burdened by the weight of the news that had shattered her joyful day. “Oh, Nettie, it’s a total disas

Unbelievable Sacrifice:Instead of my friend coming here to Paris with her husband to have a romantic trip and enjoy themselves, Lynette and William stayed by my side in the hospital for three days. Your mother Lynette is my closest and dearest friend, and she stayed by my side to comfort me, saying, "Honey, look at this way. Be thankful you didn't marry that man. Sheppard would have only given you nothing but grief and a life full of pain and misery." I nodded my head in agreement. We shared an understanding that strengthened our friendship. I felt grateful to have avoided a harmful relationship with a man who lied, disrespected women, and had more darkness in him than I could understand.I was engulfed in a realm of physical agony I had never known before. My neck throbbed, my eyes hurt and stung, and a profound sense of loss and disillusionment weighed down on my heart. The weariness and suffering were overwhelming, and I longed to escape into an eternal slumber. But Lynette, und

Where there is a 'Will'Tears poured from my eyes like a waterfall, and I couldn't do anything to stop the pain I felt. Before I could read any further, I was overwhelmed with emotions and so upset. I kept repeating, "My poor parents and poor Beverly." I wiped my eyes and kept forging ahead. I wanted to know what happened to me because it must have been so bad that I don't recall little snippets of my childhood. I braced myself as I slid my finger reluctantly across the screen to turn to the next page.Dynasty, a word of caution, as I mentioned this to you before: the love of money is the root of all evil and all sorts of dangerous, injurious things, and by reaching out for this love, you can trap many, and they won't be able to escape without stabbing themselves all over with many pains. Therefore, my dear Dynasty, you must use this knowledge and wisdom to your advantage and avoid the pitfalls of your family's history.Here's what occurred when Lynette, your mother's family, heard abo

I Got A New AttitudeMy eyes popped open the very next morning. I couldn't believe I fell asleep on the floor, curled up with my laptop. I sat up and began to stretch as I wiped the sleep away from my eyes. I don't know what time of morning I read until I fell asleep. Last night was rough. The emotional connection I'm starting to have with Beverly's past is doing something to me. I stood up and made my way to the bathroom. Looking in the mirror, my eyes looked puffy from all the crying I had been doing. But it wasn't nothing; a little makeup couldn't correct. I took a quick shower and got dressed. I looked in the mirror again, and each day, it was strange how I began to feel and look different. That innocent, naive feeling that made me not have a care in the world was gone.I had no one to rely on anymore. I had no choice but to get my emotions in order, and I felt more self-assured with each passing day. It was time that I stood on my own two feet, without being able to run to Beverl

It was afternoon, and the vibrant city streets buzzed with life. Workers scurried about, hunting for the perfect lunch spot. Among them are two powerhouse women from Flawless—Angela and Dynasty. They walked from the office, heading to their favorite place to dine. They were filled with the exhilaration of launching a brand-new company while meticulously planning an extravagant end-of-year gala destined to become the talk of the city for more reasons than one.“Oh, Dynasty! This brilliant idea came to me in a dream last night.” Dynasty rolled her eyes and snickered. “Come on, Angela. That's not another crazy idea. I can’t take much more. I’m already a wreck!” “Just listen. What about a large fountain in the middle of the room?” Dynasty stopped in her tracks in the middle of the sidewalk. “A water fountain?” “No! A champagne fountain. I think the guest would get a kick out of it, and it would be a great talking piece for the critics. I’m telling you, this is the kind of wild stuff th

A Walk Down Memory LaneDynasty ascended to her penthouse on the top floor that evening, filled with anticipation. This morning, her new apartment had been filled with unpacked boxes, which felt cold and empty. Now, she envisioned the transformation that awaited her.

Hanging OutDynasty shut down her computer and organized the papers on her desk. She grabbed her purse, turned off the lights, and headed toward the elevators. She turned to the sound of a high-pitched voice down the hallway."Hey! Hey! Where are you off to in such a hurry? Don't tell me you have a secret date behind your best friend's back, Ms. Dynasty," Angela teased as she joined me in the elevator. "Come on, when do I even have time to date?" I replied, rolling my eyes."That's a fair point. Hey, how about we start treating each other out at least once a month for dinner? That way, we can each choose different international restaurants to try out.”“That sounds cute, Angela, and I’ll think about it, but I’m too busy right now.” “Alright, you are such a tough cookie to break! How about we grab a drink tonight?" she suggested enthusiastically."No, not tonight. I'm just not feeling social; I've got a lot on my mind," I said, my reluctance clear in my voice."Why are you rushing hom

A Wild Mission:“I’m so happy this party is going to be on soil I’m familiar with and doesn’t have the issue I just came from experiencing two months ago.”“Oh, that’s right. We never got to hear about your traumatic experience because shortly after we heard about you, this insane, awful thing happened to Beverly.” Dynasty says.“Yeah, I visited with Beverly before I flew here, and her condition is the same. She's a strong woman and has trained us all to be strong. I know she will recover; we must keep praying for her.” “I pray for her all the time and for all of us. I can’t take another mission going haywire.” Dynasty utters in a concerned tone.“So, Tizzy, we heard you just got back from a wild mission,” Angela states. “Where did Beverly send you?”Tizzy looks over at Dynasty to see if she is alright before conveying her story. “I’m fine. Please tell us, Tizzy.” Dynasty says, taking a big swallow of Long Island ice and nodding her head. “I was in Brazil, and I had signed a deal,

Dig Deeper Into You"Sorry, boss, for disturbing you, but I think you need to hear this. I didn't get a chance to talk to you with so much that has happened in the last 48 hours. But that guy you entertained at the Gala. His name was Victor Choi. I expected his father to attend the Gala, but instead, his son came. I've been trying to find out why his father didn't come, but I've been running into dead ends while trying to get any information on Sheppard Choi. It’s as if he has gone missing in action. So I couldn't sleep and I had to call you and warn you, just in case he shows up again."Angela was far too late with her warning because Dynasty had already spent a very long evening, into the late morning, with him."I'm aware of who he is, and I have spoken with him since the Gala. He's my target." "But boss, he's not the old man you expected. He's around your age and very debonair. Not to mention, he must be angry about his family's wealth. I think it's too dangerous, Dynasty. You do

Captivated"It sounds awful hearing it described that way. However, I couldn't have described it any better. That's how it is. I'm sorry to say this to you."Victor felt something deep in his soul stir for the first time. He didn't know how to describe it other than feeling very sorry."It's okay, that's your world? It is very sad. I didn't know, but I do now. I feel very sorry for you."From looking at her face, Victor could tell that what he said didn't suit her taste. But despite that, he couldn't stop gazing at her with amazement in his eyes. "I think you're reading me wrong again. I do…" The dynasty had to fight off, entering a defensive attack mode for females. Because every time she looked at his pathetic and demeaning view, he had women. She saw in his eyes for the first time that he recognized that something was wrong with his view and way of thinking. Dynasty wore a pleasant smile, even though she was holding back words that were itching to escape her lips. “You seem unha

Don’t Want To LeaveSince you’re here in my home, I want to ensure you’re neither married nor entangled with someone else. I maintain a strict policy against involving myself with married men outside of work," she stated, her clarity reflecting a deep respect for herself and for Victor.A flicker of surprise crossed Victor's face at her bold frankness. A charged tension settled in the air as he contemplated his response, weighing his words carefully."Relax," she encouraged, a warm smile curving her lips, disarming the initial intensity of the moment. "I’m simply inquiring whether you’re in a serious relationship, like having a girlfriend or a spouse. So are you involved?" Her calm yet probing tone, intertwined with the candlelight flickering across his well-contoured features, helped diffuse the atmosphere.Dynasty had a clear intention behind her question. To her, clarity was paramount in the early stages of any relationship to avoid the messy complications that often ensue in roman

The Scent Of A Woman:“Thank you,” Victor replied, managing to maintain a calm facade even as a flurry of nerves fluttered in his stomach like a restless bird trying to escape. He made his way across the room to the credenza, his hand moving almost mechanically as he poured a generous glass of his favorite red wine. The deep, rich aroma wrapped around him, momentarily distracting him from the anticipation building within.She reappeared, and the atmosphere shifted dramatically. The simple robe had disappeared, replaced by a stunning, metallic silk maxi dress explicitly tailored for her. The fabric caught the soft light, shimmering like liquid sunshine, and accentuated her every curve with effortless elegance, leaving Victor momentarily breathless. Each step she took unveiled daring slits that climbed high along the sides of the dress, teasing glimpses of her toned thighs that hinted at both strength and grace. Meanwhile, the neckline, adorned with untied drawstrings, invited his gaze

Revealing Identity:“Hello! Who’s calling?” The voice emanating from the intercom was warm and inviting, wrapping the small, cozy room in a friendly atmosphere that felt almost comforting.“Is this Ms. DuBois's residence?” The question came from an appealing masculine voice that carried a warm charm, its rich timbre echoing softly against the walls. There was a genuine curiosity in his tone, making it impossible not to be drawn in by his presence.“Yes, it is,” she replied, her voice smooth and refined, embodying a sense of grace that belied her underlying caution. “May I ask who’s calling?” There was a subtle tension in her tone, a delicate thread of suspicion woven through her politeness, adding an intriguing layer of suspense to the exchange as she prepared to guard the information she held.Victor inched closer to the sleek, black camera positioned next to the door, his captivating smile lighting up his striking features. The warm corridor light streamed down on him, casting a gold

The air buzzed with an electric intensity, thick with apprehension that practically wrapped around her.To make matters worse, her lawyer—her only ally in this intricate maze of law—had been barred from the room, leaving her feeling stranded and vulnerable.

Alert! Alert!As the meeting drew to a close, the President surveyed the room with her keen, perceptive gaze, acutely aware of the absence that lingered like a shadow among her advisors. She chose to hold her tongue, allowing the others to reveal the truth as it unfolded. Just then, Angelique rose from her seat, her posture betraying an urgency she couldn’t mask. With a respectful nod, she requested permission to step out of the conference room for a moment. Upon her return, she approached the group with a palpable sense of trepidation etched across her features. Clearing her throat, she delivered the critical news with a tremor in her voice. "Dynasty," she began, her words trembling slightly, "the evidence we gathered last night was undeniably clear. After reviewing all the footage and testimonies, it’s apparent that the decision to fire shots was made in self-defense." The weight of her revelation hung in the air, as the room processed the gravity of what it meant for their ongoi

As she entered her teenage years, her dreams transformed into something more profound but also complicated. She found inspiration in her ment
