Mirah's Loyalty

last update Last Updated: 2025-09-07 02:19:07

There is a thing — money can buy the system. Whether it’s laws, politics, or positions of power. My grandma once said never to taste the power of money. It will make you nothing but a power-hungry animal.

And that was why, despite having the entire city in my palm, I played the role of a businesswoman.

But now, it’s all gone. I didn’t want to be the saint, nor the devil. Yet those who had destroyed everything would face the cruelest consequences.

“Boss!” Mirah lightly knocked on the door. “The Mayor wants to talk to you!”

“Mayor?” My brow raised.

“He has been trying to get the appointment but failed!”

“Bring him in,” I said, my voice firm.

“What if he’s here to talk about the recent situation?” Mirah looked concerned.

I leaned back into the chair, my eyes sharp. “Do you think I’ll be afraid of a Mayor? Don’t worry. I have nothing to lose anymore. But I will definitely make this place a living hell for those who oppose me.”

Mirah tried saying something but decided to keep her mouth shu

  • The Surrogate-in-law: The Billionaire CEO's Deception    A trip to Milan

    "Xavier Watson! I don't remember allowing you to come here!" I folded my arms and leaned into the chair as he walked toward us with a wicked grin. His eyes glanced at Mirah and then at me."Two Ironmen with hot blood!" He smirked. "So, Ms. Riverwood, how are you doing?""Do you want to die, Xavier? How dare you come in front of me after everything you have pulled—!""Here!" He cut my words off and placed a thick binder on the desk. "My apologies for everything I have done. But whatever I said earlier was true. I will always be there when you need me!"My eyes narrowed, brows furrowing in disbelief. Always be there when I needed him? It was more likely he was here because Knox wasn’t in the picture anymore. Still, my attention went straight to the thick binder."What are they?" I asked, glancing at it, my heartbeat picking up."Read yourself. Then you will be able to find yourself a clear path forward!"His smirk gave me a creepy feeling, making my skin crawl, but I decided to go ahead

  • The Surrogate-in-law: The Billionaire CEO's Deception    Words are law

    Violet,It was the constant beeping sound that woke me up. A thin, metallic rhythm that pressed into my skull, steady and merciless. When I opened my eyes, I found myself lying in a hospital bed, the sterile smell of antiseptic heavy in the air, the ceiling too white, too bright. Around me stood the very people I trusted most, their faces tense, shadows under their eyes telling me they had not slept.I felt numb, as though my entire body had turned to stone and the only thing still functioning was my mind.Nothing else."Boss!" Mirah’s voice cracked through the suffocating silence.My eyes moved to her slowly. My brain fought to process the scene, to put together the fragments of what was happening. But nothing came. Not even the smallest trace of memory to explain why I was here, surrounded, confined to this bed.I tried to move, to speak, but a sharp pain seared down my spine like a blade of fire. My breath hitched. My body refused to obey me."Please restrain yourself from moving,"

  • The Surrogate-in-law: The Billionaire CEO's Deception    Unexpected attack

    Violet,My grandma always said that never let your guard down when you are in danger. And I thought I had followed her advice every time.However, when I sent those dead bodies and the female assassin's unconscious body to Elder Silverfang as a warning that I knew that he was behind that, I let my guard down pretty badly after Knox hugged me tightly."So, this is what happened! Why didn't you tell me first? Please don't take action without telling me!" He pressed his lips on my forehead with tenderness.I melted in his arms. My world. He was warm. The anxious consciousness of the attack earlier lifted like a cloud as I buried my face in his neck, nibbling the muscle. His scent, earthy and familiar, filled me with a dangerous calm."Vio!" He chuckled, running his fingers through my hair. I couldn’t help but trace his neck, slowly reaching his Adam’s apple. I pecked it before digging my teeth into his flesh."Ouch!" He hissed with a soft chuckle and patted my head, "Are you upset? You g

  • The Surrogate-in-law: The Billionaire CEO's Deception    Protect her

    Knox, I saw that. The look on her face. The look she rarely showed. She was reluctant to see me leaving. And God damn it, I wasn’t happy to leave her side either. Previously, I was ready to go anywhere in the world after being satisfied seeing her as my best friend while hiding the deepest desire to make her mine. But now? No, not even for a single second of my life did I want to stay away from her. She never knew that she was the one I held in my heart as someone holier, someone who could control me like a slave. In front of her, I forgot about my ego, my arrogance—everything, as if she owned my entire existence. Only God knows how much I wanted to live with her forever. "Knox! My child!" Grandma’s weak voice snapped me out of my thoughts. Even in such a crucial time, all I had in mind was her. "You are finally awake. What happened, Grandma? It doesn’t look like you had a heart attack." I held her shaky hand. Although I got the call saying she had a heart attack, it wasn’t tru

  • The Surrogate-in-law: The Billionaire CEO's Deception    Unshakable unerase

    I knew that Elder Silverfang would never leave me alone. My grandmother had warned me from the beginning to be careful around him. Not only did he try to make my grandma's life miserable, but he even had the audacity to ask her out despite being married. After her rejection, he decided to make her life even more difficult by adding fraudulent information to the Riverwood family business.Now, I understood why he was desperate to get Knox back. Knox might act like a sweet boy in front of me, but he was a business prodigy. Not to mention, Silverfang might be terrified of losing his wealth to me again since we were already legally married.On top of that, Knox had once joked about changing his surname in front of that old man.Whatever it was, I needed to keep an eye on them."Damn! When will we ever be able to live peacefully without all this nonsense?" I grunted while sipping the warm tea Knox had brewed for me."What are you thinking, my princess?" Knox’s voice cut through my thoughts
