Semua Bab His Betrayal, My Redemption: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Chapter 22 DAHLIA “Lastly, After your divorce, you'll go on ten dates with Mr. Knights. That's all.” I stayed silent for about a minute, just staring at the file. To make sure my ears weren't deceiving me. I mean, who gives out a multi million dollar company this way. I've heard of Helixx, in fact I don't think there is a single business person in Dralwood that hasn't heard of Helixx. The company was always closing deals with the Knights. And right now, I finally found the reason as to why they could easily access business contracts with the Knights. Ronan Knight owned it, wow! “How many hidden businesses does this man have?” At that moment, I realized he wasn't just a multi millionaire like the entire country thought. This man was a trillionaire or even much more than that. “Well, since he has this much, giving out just one company wouldn't hurt him,” I mumbled to myself. “I'll take the company,” I said aloud. And stretched out my hand for Blake to hand me a pen. He took a

Chapter 24 DAHLIA I just couldn't believe Roselle was pregnant. Not only did she harm me, she even got pregnant for Desmond. It was just hard to digest. How could she? Roselle and I might not have the best relationship, but we weren't enemies. In fact we both used to get along up until we got separated by our parents’ divorce. I just couldn't understand the root of her hate for me that made her do something this despicable. I walked out of Helen's office, lost in thought. My phone ringing was all it took to snap me back to reality, I pulled it out from my bag and answered the call. It was Sophia. “What's up Soph?” I asked. “Listen Dahlia. I have news, Desmond doesn't plan on handing back the company to you…” she was speaking but I cut her off. “That's a pretty known fact…” “Allow me to finish Dahlia,” she hushed me “Sorry,” I mumbled and kept calm. “He doesn't plan to hand the company over to you until he finishes the project with the Knights. He wants to finish the project u

Chapter 26 RONAN Dahlia is such a troublesome woman. Right from the day she stepped into my company with scribblings instead of a business proposal, I knew she was trouble. I had watched her cause a ruckus at the lobby. Her confidence made me feel like she had something to offer, that her business proposal would be top notch, but then it wasn't. I always trusted my guts, so I gave her another chance, merely to access her performance and she did impress me. After accidentally eavesdropping on her conversation with Sophia Elvis at the company's parking lot that day, her affairs became my business. “Ronan!” A familiar voice that stresses the hell out of me called out my name in a seemingly angry tone, pulling me out of my day dream. I looked up, it was my grandfather, I could feel my head beginning to ache already, the man was trouble personified. “Oh God,” I could only mumble. “Old man,” I called out, rising from my seat, I walked up to him. “You can leave,” I waved off his care

Chapter 28 DAHLIA “Who the hell asked him to interfere! I never asked for his help. Why would he protect my oppressor!” I was so pissed off that I rose from my seat, ignoring Helen and headed out to find Ronan Knight. He might have been really helpful and saved my ass a lot of times, but then protecting someone that hurt me instantly renders every single thing he did for me useless. ”Mr. Knight doesn't need to be disturbed right now,” Blake, who I knew was sticking around and listening to my conversation with Helen, stopped me. “I don't care. I have to speak with him,” I protested. “Mr. Knight is working from home all because of you, yet you want to disturb him? Aren't you grateful? You're not even related to him or whatsoever yet he is housing, clothing, and feeding you. That man stayed up all night tending to your wounds and making sure you're okay. Yet, you want to go confront him over a minor inconvenience?” Blake didn't hide his disdain from me. “You're not differen

Chapter 30 DAHLIA (COURT ROOM) I had a look of distress. I was seated right next to Helen and had my hand on the bandages on my head, occasionally adjusting as if uncomfortable. Sonia was the first to begin to lay out claims. First she claimed I was responsible for Desmond's condition and even provided video evidence. “That's just a clip of him being beaten up. My client knows nothing of this!” Helen was quick to interject. But then, Sonia insisted it was all my doing. “Your honour, I have every reason to believe that Desmond Sterling paid thugs to beat him up inorder to put my client in a difficult position today,” Helen countered. “He has been abusing my client for years. She never retaliated all those years, she has no reason to retaliate now that it's finally over.” “Desmond never raised his hand on Dahlia. Not even once. Stop lying!” Roselle yelled from where she sat. I turned around, looked at her and smirked. “You lying bitch, you're pulling cheap stunts!”
