CHAPTER 101Daniel I woke up in a hospital bed with my Mom beside me. I tried to sit upright but the pain coming from my chest was unbearable.“What the hell did you do?" my Mom asked in a serious tone.“Please don't start. You can already see that I'm in pain Mom." “Sweetie, that is nothing compared to the rumors out there. Do you want to take my husband's Empire to the gutter?"Mom please! If you don't have anything else to say you might as well just leave. I can't do this, at least not right now.”"Oh, yes, you will do it, Daniel Cross. Why the hell are pictures of you being taken out of Scarlett's Empire by paramedics trending? Do you have any idea how many sparks were created?” "I don't care. How did I even get to this place?” “I thought you knew Daniel better. What the hell are you trying to say to me right now?!" she asked, and the doctor walked in, asking us to keep our tones down since the patients in the next room were being disturbed.“What happened to my son?" my mom

CHAPTER 103Scarlett It had been hours and I was already missing Swakopmund. I don't know whether it was the fact that I wasn't seeing Aldric or my impatience to tell him how I felt that was haunting me.“You need to get yourself together," I whispered, looking at myself in the mirror.I was about to leave the restroom when my phone vibrated and I checked my screen only to see that Zoe was trying to video call. “Hey, I can't talk now. Will get back to you soon," I whispered before making my way to the hall.I didn't even get time to be by myself. Everyone I looked at just kept snapping photos of me, and I had to keep that smile on.“Ms. Brown," I heard a man with a deep tone say from behind me before I turned around and met the eyes of this dashing guy. I could tell he was wealthy just by sensing his fragrance.“Yes Sir. How may I be of help?" I smiled.“It's so impossible to stop looking at you. You're such a beautiful woman." "Oh thank you. I appreciate that.”"I mean it and one

CHAPTER 105Scarlett I pressed the emergency button, and it didn't take my security long to come and stop Daniel. “Let me go!" “Do you have any idea who I am?" “We don't care about that around here Daniel," I responded while my men held him.“I can't believe you would take that fool," he said looking at me.“What are you even talking about?" I lifted my brows."You know damnit! How could you take Aldric? I thought I am—”"Put him on his knees," I instructed my man while Daniel argued with them not to.“I'll kill all of you motherfuckers I swear, let me go," he threatened, and I couldn't help but laugh.“Does this look like a joke to you?" I held his chin roughly to lift his head.“You know you still love me Scarlett. What's with all these games baby?" he smiled." I'm glad you think so Daniel. Just know that whatever you're thinking is never going to happen OK.”"Why?” he asked."It just won't happen now if you know what's good for you, please don't try to cause trouble around her

CHAPTER 107Nia When I saw the way Aldric kissed Scarlett through the glass I completely lost it. I wasn't surprised but didn't expect them to start having something so soon. I don't know why she always keeps taking what's mine. First, it was Damien Pierce. I thought he liked me, only to find out he was using me to make Scarlett jealous, and now it's Aldric.I thought that I would be his girlfriend in no time now that I was working close to him but Scarlett had to come and take away all that. I already failed at my first attempt while trying to seduce him in the living room.He walked away as if he couldn't see how hot I was. I mean whatever is wrong with Aldric needs to be studied. When he offered me a design position I was excited. Not because I finally got back to my career path but because I was now going to use every chance I got to get close to Aldric.Just the other day, I faked not feeling well with hopes of him probably rushing to my aid, but instead, he sent one of his cha

CHAPTER 109 Daniel I was in my room going through a few documents when I heard the sound of glass breaking in the living room, so I went to find out what was happening, only to find my mother boiling with rage. “What's going on?" I asked since she only does that when something bad happens. “You don't know how much we're about to lose all because of your foolishness Daniel," she looked at me. “Please don't start, I'm not in the mood for this," I answered about going back to my room when she mentioned something that caught my attention. “I was at Scarlett's Empire.” "And?” "She and Aldric had her security walk me out of her office,” Mom replied. "Damnit! I don't know what I'm going to do the next time I get my hands on Aldric. He's—” "I think I've got an idea," Mom said with a wicked smile playing on her lips. “Are you sure?" I asked. “Yes, son. Aldric thinks he's smart but we're going to show him why we run the city," she replied. “What should I do?" I asked. “You're just
