‎ ‎Nina (Sarah's) POV ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎It’s been weeks since William left for the emergency surgeries overseas. Their wasn't anyone to leave my son with, so I started bringing my son with me to the office at Grayson Towers. ‎ ‎ ‎Vanessa had noticed him a few times just small glances, curious, thoughtful. She never asked questions, but I could feel her eyes linger longer than they should. She had begun watching me more closely since the day she saw my son. Every time I caught her staring, I just smiled, pretending not to notice. But inside her, I knew she was getting restless. ‎ ‎But with Elijah I couldn’t help it anymore. He had started forming a bond with my son. It wasn’t part of my plan, at least not this way I wanted it. ‎ ‎The project had reached a delicate stage, one that really required Elijah’s involvement. We had been spending long hours in the same room, reviewing some of the sketches, layouts, and design models side by side. He’d lean closer sometimes, asking questions o

‎Vanessa’s POV ‎It was announced that morning , it was going to be a little celebration at the office. Elijah stood before everyone that morning, with a proud voice, saying that we had reached the halfway mark on the Grayson Tower remodel with Sarah and her team. and that “That deserves a little celebration,” he said, and the room broke into applause. ‎ ‎Tables were all set up in minutes. Music drifted through the background , some soft, light, pretending peace and all. ‎Glass bowls of fruits, trays of pastries, bottles of sparkling wine lined the tables.while I stood, smiling as bright as I could. “I’ll handle the refreshments,” I said sweetly, pretending to be so thrilled by everything. ‎ ‎Everyone believed me. Why wouldn’t they? I’d spent years with them perfecting all that smile of mine, the one that said I care, when all I wanted was to watch someone really fall. ‎ ‎The room buzzed with praise for Sarah Fenric.The new star in the building. The golden woman with ide

‎Nina's (Sarah) POV ‎ ‎Vanessa is just colder than I imagined, so heartless, even, to go that far… slipping what I’m allergic to into my food, just to see if I’d choke. If I hadn’t taken my anti-allergy medication beforehand, I might have collapsed right there in front of everyone. She wanted to confirm, to test me like some kind of lab experiment. ‎ ‎But she really had failed. But I remained calm all through, even smiled through it, while i noticed how she watched me like a hawk. That glass slipping from my hand must have given her a flicker of hope, but it was really nothing, Just a mistake. ‎If I hadn’t gone out to get a micro spy recorder the day before, things might have gone differently. I slipped it neatly into the inner lining of her blazer while ‎She wasn't at the office. That morning I had everyone excused me from the meeting at the board to use the restroom while I actually came into her office and planted the spy recorder. It was really tiny, nearly weightless,an

‎Nina ( Sarah's) POV ‎Stupid Vanessa thought she was wise, and on edge, smarter than everyone else, especially me. But she forgot one thing: I’d lived through her kind of cunning before in the past. ‎She had planned to sell my exclusive design project and frame me for it, but I was already ahead of her. The moment I overheard her plan with Charles, I came back to the office quietly and switched the files. She never even noticed. ‎Instead of the design project, she handed over the Primary Investor Agreement, the most sensitive document in the entire company to Elijah’s rivals. The witch didn’t even care to look through what she was giving away. ‎Now, Elijah’s empire would begin to tremble… like a table with one broken leg, barely holding up. Investors would start pulling out, one after another. ‎And when the news breaks, the big project the company was expecting will be lost. ‎And that… will be the beginning of their fall. ‎And as for the design project, I never put it

‎Nina’s ( Sarah ) POV ‎My design was finally completed, and it was monumental. Everywhere I turned, my name filled the headlines, my work was flooding every media outlet like wildfire. Investors, major partners, top companies, and high-profile individuals were all flying into the country for the grand launch the moment it was announced. ‎This wasn’t just another project; it was one of the biggest event of the year, the birth of my career under a new name, well a disguised one. ‎Reporters called me the mystery mind behind the Grayson Tower remodel, and though no one knew the full story, I did. Every detail, every line, every inspiration in that design carried my soul, the same soul they once buried.I smiled to myself as I went over the final layout one last time at my home. The lines of, the structure, the beauty of it all, it wasn’t just a design anymore to me; it was just a message. Every detail felt like a quiet victory so far, a piece of the revenge I’d carefully been buildin
