Marissa pov:“What if I tell your daughter that you are a whore, I wonder what her reaction would be?,” Stella asked, smirking. I pretend to be scared for a little bit to let her feel like she has the upper hand.She laughs, I smirked. She frown when my expression changed. “Oh, Stella. You are funny,” I laughed.I walked closer to her, “You have the nerve to threat me, Miss Stella. You have interesting secrets than me, don't play with me Stella cause you might not like end,” I smiled, her face turned pale.Who does she think is?, I walked away from her to see the dress Nova has chosen.I heard her stomp away, I laughs internally “childish” I scoffed.Nova came out of the dress room, in a tweed red with touch of black blazer and skirt, and with the Chanel accessories, I can literally see the happiness on her face.“Mom, I love this. I am wearing this for birthday,” Nova said holding my hands.“Okay. pick more dress, Love,” I said, I called the Store manager to send in more accessories

Marissa pov: I scrolled through the news on my phone. Lucien was holding a glass of whiskey in his hand. We are currently in the car to The Monroe mansion for Nova's birthday banquet. I laughed at the news and the facial expressions on the man face I am looking at on my phone, “What did you do to Levi's principal?,” Lucia asked, I turned to him, smiled and gave him my phone.He laughed, more loudly than me. Turns out principal Marcus and Mrs Meyer's were having an affair and not only that the son belongs to Principal Marcus,and Principal Marcus is also taking bribes from parents.“You actually give that to the press,” Lucien said, I shook my head, Lucien eyes widened in anticipation.“I made him beg for days, take Levi back before sending the file out,” I said, Levi school is the most prestigious elementary school for rich students, you can imagine the scandal that comes with the public finding out that the principal is a scumbag.“He deserves it, I also found out that he harassed s

Alaric Pov:I kept thinking about why Marissa buys thirty percent shares of my company shares. She will be attending the broad meeting, in fact she has become the second with the most shares.I will make sure I find a way to make her sell back the shares. I looked up at the clock in my home office. Stella and I had a fight this morning about Marissa, she complained about me not sharing a room with her anymore. The night before, I had told Nova not to acknowledge Marissa as her mother in her birthday banquet. She cried, asking why she shouldn't talk to her mother on her birthday. Prissy told her that Marissa is whore and the press must not see us relate with people like them. Nova talks back telling Prissy not to call her mother a whore.Prissy stomped over the room to hit Nova but I stopped her, telling her if she is any different from Marissa. She gasped, and called me an asshole. I took Nova to her room but she has refused to talk to me ever since. Stella also tried her best to

Alaric pov:Marissa was drowning. I looked over at Stella. She was still struggling to get to the end of the lake.I dove into the lake, forgetting that Stella is my fiancée, and Marissa?...I pulled Marissa and carried her out of the lake. She was no longer breathing, and I was scared. I gave her CPR, and God, her lips felt soft against mine and sweet, my heart felt warm. She didn’t respond, and the second time she started to respond.She opened her eyes. I released the breath I never thought I was holding. I gave her my tuxedo jacket. She called my name as if she didn’t expect to see me, but there was something in her eyes that told me she knew this would happen, and she thanked me.Suddenly Lucien appeared from nowhere and held Marissa away from me. He gave her his jacket and threw mine at me.“My lawyer will see Miss Stella,” Lucien said as he scooped Marissa into his arms. How dare him just appear from nowhere and take her from me.“Wait, she pushed me first!” Stella said as she

Alaric POV:When my assistant informed me about Marissa being the anonymous buyer, I wasn’t shocked. I knew Marissa was getting back at me. The fact that she hid her game and played me perfectly was what angered me.I stood in her office hall with her assistant and secretary trying to stop me from entering the office. I seriously wanted to look at her face, tell her I knew what she was up to.I watched as the famous Mr. Voss came out of Marissa’s office. Did she know him too? Or was she sleeping with him too? He calmly walked into the elevator. I walked towards Marissa’s office before the assistant stopped me again.“Mr. Monroe, you can’t go in, you don’t have an appointment,” her assistant said, spreading her arms to block my path.“Go in and tell your boss I am here. If not, I am going in whether you like it or not,” I threatened. She and the secretary rushed into Marissa’s office. Two minutes later, they came out.“She will see you. You can go in,” she said. I loosened my tie as if
