Chapter 1

The golden sun in the sky dazzled and blurred Nicole's sight as she stepped out of the prison gate. She placed a hand on her forehead, shielding her eyes from the scorching rays, as she waited for her vision to adjust to the bright sunlight.She had been locked up for two long years, and now she was free. This was the first time in all that time that she had seen such bright light. Despite the pain she had endured in prison, she had no regrets. Her five-year sentence had been unexpectedly cut short. Thanks to the new president, who had announced the release of all female inmates who were not guilty of murder, Nicole found herself among the lucky few set free.Nicole took a moment to survey her surroundings, the fresh air and the sight of the world outside the prison filling her with a sense of relief. Her mind wandered to her husband, Abel Copper, and a soft smile spread across her face. She couldn't wait to surprise him with her unexpected release."Just a few minutes, baby, and I'll

Nicole had always hoped that her journey to prison would bring her the love she sought from Abel, but that was not the case.As she stared at him, tears flooded her eyes. Abel stood before her, his face as immaculate as ever, his features cold and unfeeling. A chilling aura surrounded him, sending an icy shiver down her spine. He saw the tears but felt no remorse. His eyes only darkened, becoming more indifferent."Please, Abel, can we not get divorced?" Nicole begged, her voice trembling. She dropped to her knees, grabbing the fabric of his tuxedo in desperation. "Please don't do this to me. I beg you. I still want to be your wife, even if you don't want me."Her pleading only fueled his anger. He lifted his leg and kicked her to the ground, watching with disdain as she fell."You’re just a gold digger," Abel sneered. "You would stay married to me even if I didn’t love you—just for my money."Nicole’s heart shattered. She had hoped for more—for love, for understanding—but all he saw

"I am back at Mallory"What! Aren't you supposed to come back in a month?" Abel asked and was beaming at the news. So that was it, Riana was coming back and that was why he wanted a divorce and wanted it finalized in a month. Nicole thought."Yeah, but I want to surprise you" "Wait for me at the airport, I will be right there"Quickly, Abel stormed out of the house.Nicole was disheartened. She was crushed and broken. The joy on Abel's face a while ago when answering Riana's call made her realize that she had lost the man she loved. Despite all her efforts, she was not able to win his heart instead all her sacrifices were thrown back at her face. She smiled wryly at her foolishness. Later in the day, Abel came back home with Riana, his hand wrapped around her waist as he led her into the house. Nicole's heart dulled in pain. Abel had never treated her with such love and it hurt her soul. When their eyes met, Abel's face quickly turned to disgust. "She never gets tired, when will

Avery quickly ran to her father's arms and hugged him. It was only in his arms that she melted like butter and sobbed out all the pains she had been holding in since Sebastian picked her up from Abel's residence. She has been the sweetheart of the family an apple of her father's eyes. She fled from home without telling anyone and changed her identity so that no one would find her. Her actions broke her father's heart and right now just like a prodigal daughter, she has come back home to ask for his mercy."Enough of this Princess, it's a good thing that you are home. You came back at the right time." Frederick Clinton said not hiding his disappointment."The company at Mallory Avenue needed help and your brother's hands were full already, so get ready because Sebastian will take you there tomorrow morning, from now on, you will be the new CEO over there," Frederick said. He vowed to punish Avery for her disappearance and this seems to be the best way to start. "Father! How can you s

"Oh, yes, I told him that I was married to an unfit man, who divorced his wife immediately after his first love came back from abroad. Do you think that such a man deserves me?" "Now I have someone more capable, tell me why I should consider your family reputation?"Avery said and wrapped her hands around her brother's waist. This made Abel's heart boil in anger."How dare you insult Abel in that manner? You can insult me for all I care but don't insult him. Look, Nicole, it's not Abel's fault that both of you got divorced. It was me that you should blame, I never knew my presence would cause you any trouble. Please forgive me" Riana explained and looked pitiable and innocent.Riana noticed Sebastian standing beside Avery and became envious."How can a village pumpkin like Nicole who has no roots know Sebastian? How did she meet him? Riana thought. A flick of jealousy Sparks within her."You think I will stoop so low to barter words with you Riana? Come on Seba, let's get out of here

As soon as Avery entered her room, a message popped up on her phone. She took the phone and found a message from Riana. It was Riana's picture with Abel. Abel was sleeping peacefully on the bed and Riana was lying beside him. "Guess what Nicole, Abel, and I just had a good time. As you can see, Abel was sleeping peacefully because of the exhaustion. So sorry you never shared such wonderful memories with him." Avery clenched her phone after reading the message. She was determined not to let Riana's words get to her."Go ahead and eat my leftovers. You can have him, I don't want him anymore" Avery clicked the send button and tossed the phone away.When Riana received the message, she was aggravated. This was not what she wanted from Avery. Three years ago, she had taunted Avery with messages like this and she would call her back to vent her anger. It was the same reason that made Avery accept her proposal. Riana tricked her into believing that she would leave Abel. The truth was

Mr Edward was terrified, no one had ever noticed that the dust-proof and oil-proof had been damaged except Avery. However, he had recently told Mr Frederick to replace the machine and he approved the replacement. Unfortunately, Mr. Edward repaired the machine and had the body changed to look like the modern one."Ms. Clinton, you must be mistaken this is the modern GZPK730H series High-speed Rotary Tablet Press. I just bought it two weeks ago. You can ask your father, he confirmed the payment""This machine is the old model that dates back two decades ago. It is not oil-proof, dust-proof, or noise-proof. So tell me how can this be a modern edition? And how can you buy this old product two weeks ago? Additionally, modern rotary tablet presses often incorporate features like automated monitoring and data acquisition to maintain quality control and optimize production. But I did not see such features in this machine " Avery knitted her brow and folded her arms. Mr Edward began to tr

A sigh of relief came from Anthony. "Sure Ms. Clinton let's go" ****It was already 11 am the next day and Avery was in the boardroom with all the management teams.After a brief greeting and introduction, Avery moved straight to the point and told them why she called the meeting."I called this meeting to tell you my observations within the company and how we can move this organization forward. But first I want to know why everything seems so wrong within this company.? What caused the huge losses this company suffered over the years?"Everyone kept quiet and listened to her complain. Each of them was guilty in one way or the other. It's a matter of time before Avery discovers the bad egg in the company."I will let you know one thing, my vision to revive this company will be nothing without your support, so I need you as well as you need me to move this company forward. I hope we can work together as a team?" Avery asked.Anthony, who was not comfortable in his seat, felt relief.

"I will come over and see him," Avery said."How can that be possible?""I got released two days ago, you don't have to worry now Lucy. I am back and I will care of him myself. Promise me you won't let anyone know about this""I am so happy to hear that Avery, of course, I won't tell anyone," Lucy said and happily ended the call."I will see you tomorrow, Tobias," Avery said and got up from her seat."What about the names""Send them to my email," she said and left the office.At the hospital, Abel was pacing around in the corridor. Nora on the other hand was comforting her husband Godwin who was so worried about his father's illness.“Why do you divorce Nicole? Father is in this condition all because of you. He can't eat or taste anything unless he sees Nicole. Tell me what do we do now” “Take it easy Godwin, don't take it out on Abel. You and I know that Nicole was never a good match for him. Just give Riana a chance, she is a better choice than Nicole.” Nora said and patted his bac

"Don't talk foolishly. It's yours and you are my granddaughter-in-law." Bennett said.Avery wanted to protest and refused the ring but the old man quickly put the ring back on her finger. Just when she wanted to get rid of it, the old man began coughing hard. Avery quickly checked his vitals and started treating him immediately. After a while, he fell asleep, and his body systems gradually normalized."If he wakes up, give him these drugs and make sure no one disturbs him," Avery told Lucy. “Let's have lunch tomorrow at the Dinners”“That would be splendid. I will give you a call as soon as I am free” Lucy was excited to have Avery back. She has missed her best friend for two years and can't wait to have a good time with her."I have to go Lucy before anyone notices my presence. Please take good care of Grandpa""No need to ask, I will always take good care of him. See you tomorrow Avery"Avery put on her disguise and hurried out of the door.
