Semua Bab The Scam Called Love: Bab 31 - Bab 40

☆Kate☆It was Samira.It had to be her.This was no mere twist of fate.The ship on fire, ghosts haunting the decks, and the crew refusing to return to their posts.It all pointed to her.That vengeful woman was behind it all, yet Daniel was blind, locked away in his office, yelling over the phone for over an hour.At last, I sensed a shift in how he was handling the stones Samira was throwing at us. Even his mother was on the phone, her voice raised, though I couldn't tell who she was yelling at. This was the action they needed to take, not just idly sitting by while that witch dismantled everything we had.I stood up. I was not going to sit idle either. I was off to meet my mother for coffee. Grabbing my keys, I drove to a beachside café.It was the perfect spot for private discussions, away from prying ears. Upon arrival, I spotted my mother tucked away in a corner, enjoying the ocean view.I approached her and took a seat, diving straight into the matter

☆Samira☆“Thank you, it’s a privilege to be here,” I greeted the tenth hand that reached out to me.“Thank you!”“Thank you , thank you very much!” another hand greeted me.I had no clue who these people were, all I knew was that they belonged to the “Linda Women for Change” organization, a non profit created and nurtured by Linda herself.I was done with Daniel, and the revenge had grown dull, so I found myself in Linda's bedroom, indulging in a bit of amusement while they were preoccupied with lawsuits and fighting to lift the shut down. Norwood Seaworld was finished. No sum of money could bring it back to life. Any sensible investor would steer clear of such a sinking ship.Wins upon wins. The icing of it all was that I was still alive to witness it all, and it was a sight to behold. If I were to meet my end today, I wouldn’t have any regrets…or would I?That thought made me pause as I greeted the last member and expressed my gratitude to them all.Truth be t

☆Kate☆I walked to him slowly, the atmosphere around me felt heavy as I shoved the phone into his pathetic face, forcing him to watch his own foolishness.“She played you like a fool!” I shouted, shoving the screen closer. “She was recording you, just waiting to expose your embarrassment to the world!” I spat, relishing the sight of his expression crumbling under the weight of his own stupidity.I was itching to slap him, but there was a more pressing issue at hand.I scanned the room, my eyes darting around.She was watching usIt made sense now, no wonder she had so easily torn apart everything we had built.She was watching us all this time.“You messed up!” I yelled at the ceiling. “I’m going to find those cameras, you worthless witch! I know it’s you!”I swiftly ended the video and dialed my mother. “Mom, she’s got cameras in here, she’s been spying on us,” my voice trembled.“You need to get out of the house, pack only the essentials, leave your phones behind, buy burne

☆Samira☆In seconds he was calling his boss. Stating my name granted me access to the top floor. Office of the Cleveland police commissioner.As I made my way to meet the person in charge, my phone buzzed constantly with Vin's calls and messages urging me to turn back, but I ignored him.I reached the door and knocked.“Come in,” a voice said from the other end. I silenced my phone and stepped inside, wearing a broad smile that quickly vanished the second I laid eyes on the person inside.A familiar face awaited me.A face that resurrected all the reasons I was here, all the reasons I was ignoring my bodyguard’s warnings to set my plan into motion.It was one of the officers who had apprehended me that fateful night at the hospital, four years ago, Detective Derk, a name I will never forget.“Miss Richards, I see you remember me,” he remarked.I quickly composed myself and put on a fake smile.“Well, Detective Derk, looks like you climbed the ranks in four years,” I said, c

☆Kate☆I was so close! A slip away from revealing the truth to that woman about how I had reached deep inside her and pulled out the bastard she was carrying, but Linda snatched the phone from me in time.Now it all made sense as to why it felt like she was specifically targeting me while ignoring Daniel and Linda completely.Sure, Daniel's company had crumbled, his billionaire status evaporated, but that was precisely why I had married him. I had taken him from her, and stripping that away from him was like robbing me of my own identity.This was all about her baby, and the fact that she found me childless only elevated her status. But I was determined to pop that inflated ego.As soon as my useless husband and his equally useless mother left the cottage, I dialed my IVF doctor to schedule my insemination.“Mrs. Norwood, your husband called a few weeks ago and asked me to dispose of his sample,” he informed me.My eyes widened in shock as I leapt from my chair.
