Chapter 41: Shattered Heart
"If meeting her would only steer me to Daphne's whereabouts, then I would do such….."Nathan's luxurious car stormed towards the four-lane highway, and ran two times faster than the standard speed limit, as it raced another vehicle, and overtook cars in front. In the driver's seat, Elliot was sweating in his corporate attire as he managed to turn the car, keeping a tight brake in order not to crash into anyone's car due to the rushed movement Nathan had ordered. He had commanded Elliot to drive the car into the restaurant as fast as he could."They kept disarraying my life like hell! Even Daphne was entailed with this shit!" yelled Nathan in the backseat while his head was as hot as a potato. "Calm down, Mr. Kelly. For sure, Daphne was alright," Elliot asserted, reckoning firmly despite how they were in a pessimistic dilemma. "I know! Just drive there!" shouted Nathan and didn't heed Elliot's words. There was heavy traffic they encountered at a crossing point, yet they couldn't fin

Chapter 42: Tears of Misfortune
"The Board was now inside the conference room."With every tick of the clock, Nathan understood his fate, and the moment he entered the entrance, he would no longer be a CEO. He knew the company's policy and felt saddened, knowing his position was tilting off in his hands. That damn position he had safeguarded for years wasn't easy and would be a lump in his throat.The car halted in front, as his secretary was in a hurry to open the backseat door; while his sense was wafting around, Daphne's and Maverick’s doing, and the company dilemma made him feel turbulent. He huffed, concentrated on the side, went out of the backseat door, stood at the side of Elliot, then made sure his corporate attire was not in a mess like his life."You were three minutes late, Mr. Kelly. Better we hurry," added Elliot at his side, bothered about the following scenarios they would face."I know," replied Nathan.He bossed into the elevator as employees bowed their heads when they passed, while he and Elliot

Chapter 43: A Game Plan
"Have you ever thought about your decision?"Daphne positioned the pink luggage on her side while folding the shirts and others to be fetched to Maverick's mansion. She felt delighted, yet she couldn't deny she was frightened to discern Tatiana Powell.Tatiana would invariably prompt Daphne of the trauma she had brought from the past. While on her back, Clara stood there, glaring furiously at Daphne because of her verdict that she couldn't alter."I told you before. You should stay away from that man!" shouted Clara. She stepped closer to the closet, crossed her arms, and leaned there, still eyeing Daphne."Everyone changed. I believed Maverick would not be the same in the past," responded Daphne as she placed one red shirt on the luggage.She still aimed to change Clara's perception of Maverick. Clara didn't wholly comprehend her decision. Thus, she would still respect why she was against it.Later, Daphne closed it as it was already full. She stood, opened the closet in front of her

Chapter 44: Remorseful Wickedness
A cell phone on top of the table vibrated, which cuts the conversation between Clara and Daphne inside the apartment. While Daphne sat on the sofa, Clara went near the table and got her cell phone. Staring at the screen, Clara exhaled and glared back at Daphne."It was my boss. Wait a minute, and I will answer this," said Clara and didn't wait for Daphne's response."Alright," responded Daphne and didn't mind Clara.Clara went near the glass window and glanced into the overlooking skyline of the city while her cell phone was near her left ear. The voice of her boss, Tobias Borden, was heeded on the other line."Hello, Mr. Borden. What's the matter?" asked Clara on the other line and thought there might be a dilemma in the company."Clara, um, I knew it was the weekend. You supposedly rest, or whatever you do; unfortunately, I wanted you to come here to the office for some clarifications and paperwork to be reviewed," explained Tobias."What?" shocked Clara, and she didn't know she wou

Chapter 45: With the Ex
"I deserved to be avenged. My actions weren't venial, but I promised to improve and wouldn't reiterate the past."The past events weren't buried below the ground. All the bad vibes were still kept and never shirked. The past had molded Daphne's current life. She couldn't question Tatiana's apology, for it was genuine, came from heart, and not only told for the sake of public image. It might have sounded like someone forced her to do such, but the important thing was that Daphne finally had it, which meant she could have peace. Tatiana was erased from the list as her enemy.Though she had to concede how her heart shattered into pieces and she carried the world on her shoulder, knowing Tatiana made up a story to destroy her stature and end the bond between Maverick and her. And yes, it didn't just make her cry but also feel how her life collapsed.Before Daphne responded, she chewed the pork in her mouth; seeing her plate already had no dish, she reminded Maverick that she was full to h

Chapter 46: Unuttered Revelation
Looking back at the past gave Nathan a warm smile despite how unfortunate it would be to be hit by a car. Blood went out of his body, and it made him oblivious. Nonetheless, he already knew that he would never be overthrown. If he was in their eyes, then for him, he was not. However, it was somewhat called vengeance for integrity and to stop their disastrous actions.With a sigh, he hung his leg on the side of the bed while Elliot went silent on the chair, slowly mesmerizing the champion's throne."Did somebody know about our plan, or were they blinded and thought we didn't do such?" asked Nathan and glanced at the window."For sure, they didn't. We discreetly moved, and maybe they reckoned we feared combating them," replied Elliot.Nathan nodded. Looking back, it gave him a smirk.'I successfully gave it to her. She would surely bring it into the office and towards their mansion. Since there was a tiny chip inside, it could capture recordings and use everything we got to fight them,'

Chapter 47: Evening Raid
"The evidence was safe in my hands. Shall we take it over to the police officer we were coordinating with?" asked Elliot when he stopped and saw Nathan standing on his side near the car.With a simple nod, Nathan conceded to submit it as they all amassed robust proof to substantiate Casper’s misdeed. He wasn't sure how numerous lives were lost in his hands, but it was out of his league. Instantly, Elliot unlocked the back seat door for him while he entered the driver's seat door. Before he had started the car engine, he gazed at the rearview mirror and met Nathan's eyes."After discussion with the police officer, I had to discern and converse with the driver who hit me," said Nathan, whirling his gaze to the side and sighing."Did you plan on assassinating him?" Out of novelty, Elliot asked. "Well, you knew it was bad—""No, it didn't get into my psyche. He wasn't the real foe either. He was reimbursed according to Casper's decree, not his discretion to hurt me," responded Nathan and

Chapter 48: Falsified Rescue
"What would be your surprise, huh? It brought a broad smile to your face, which was quite mysterious."It was a paradox for Daphne; early that morning, the sun was already above the sky, dancing with the clouds. She saw a smile plastered on Maverick's lips that she could not see from others. Marching out of the room, she followed Maverick towards the living room, while Maverick only shrugged his shoulders, wanting her to guess what it could be. In Daphne's mind, it would be a normal surprise, like he gave her money or other valuable things as a sign of his great fondness.'Let me see what it could be. I already had guts but couldn't tell, hmm…' Daphne thought.As soon as Daphne moved onto the stairs, she placed her hands to the side while she felt her heart jump in apprehension, heeding a customary voice in the living room. At first, Daphne thought it was a nonentity, not until she whirled her gaze at the sofa and met Linda's eyes that glanced at her. She blinked a few times and thoug

Chapter 49: Overheard Truth
"Accept the call or proceed on proposing to Daphne…."It was hard to choose, but Maverick accepted the call instead. Last time, he knew Deanna was problematic and faced skirmishes, and he couldn't let it set aside. He already had an idea why Deanna was calling him. It was either Casper or Deanna who was caught already. That's what doom would provoke for their malfeasances."Was there any problem, Maverick? Could you tell me?" asked Daphne, seeing Maverick's smile fade on his lips."Wait a minute. Let me ratify the call. It was essential," replied Maverick. "Stay chill there.""Alright, fine. I will stay here only."Maverick moved away from the table and made sure their discussion wouldn't be that audible to Daphne. As soon as he could assure it, he swiped the screen and placed the cell phone near his ear, expecting a worse situation, she could tell."I would go there in your mansion. Expect I will arrive anytime soon," said Deanna on the other line. "I wouldn't want you to say no to t

Chapter 50: Womanizing Streak
“His rest house travels for fifteen minutes only from here. Hope you could catch him there ....”With all the information Daphne huddled, she rushed towards the rest house, following Tatiana’s advice. She speculated Tatiana wouldn’t give her erroneous information as they were fine, no negativities in between them already. She rode a taxi there, and fortunately, there was no heavy traffic. The road was empty, and only a few cars were running on the street, heading south, away from the polluted city. On her way there, only trees were seen on the side, some were houses with old designs, and others were mansions, believed to be the rest house of another billionaire.It already bestowed Daphne's quivers, and she bothered about what she could see there. There were only two. First, Maverick had another woman who had sex with her as she dismissed him, while the second was that he had another engagement with another businessman. However, it was impossible, not unless it was urgent to be tackle
