“Leave.”Ullysis’s voice cut through the office coldly.Mike and Weldon exchanged a brief glance before silently walking out. The moment the door shut behind them, the calm expression on Ullysis’s face disappeared.His jaw tightened.Shantal signed the divorce papers?The thought kept circling back like something lodged beneath his skin.Yesterday, she still refused to discuss divorce.Yesterday, she still looked at him with that quiet persistence he had long grown used to ignoring.So how had she suddenly agreed so easily?It didn’t make sense.A humorless sneer tugged at his lips as he tossed the documents onto the desk.Another tactic, perhaps.Another way to gain attention.Women often changed strategies when tears stopped working.Yet even as the thought crossed his mind, irritation settled deeper in his chest instead of easing.Ullysis leaned back against his chair and forced himself to focus on work. He picked up the stack of documents waiting for approval and flipped through th

“Now that you’ve figured out I’m not twisted, do you still want a divorce?” Shantal challenged him.She knew Ullysis wasn’t the type to get riled up easily. But he was arrogant, and nothing bruised his ego more than being embarrassed, especially in front of his employees.She was pushing his buttons. Hard.And a man like him? He wouldn’t take it lying down.Sure enough, Ullysis’s face darkened. He strode toward her. Shantal didn’t wait, she spun around and walked straight to the parking lot.But just as she opened the door, he stopped her.She looked up, meeting the sharp, icy stare she knew too well.“Anything else?” she asked, frowning.“What game are you playing?” His voice was low, steady… annoyingly calm for a man who looked ready to explode.That voice. Deep, smooth, laced with quiet authority, the kind that had always drawn her in, even when his words didn’t.But Ullysis was never much of a talker. Only brief, sharp words when necessary. No wasted effort.“I’ll buy the five per

“Look what you’ve done! Is this how you repay your mother after everything she’s done for you?” Roger’s voice thundered as he pointed a finger at Shantal. Her casual, unbothered expression only fueled his anger.Shantal lazily met his gaze, completely unfazed.“I didn’t ask her or Regina to repay me for everything I’ve spent on them these past twelve years,” she replied coolly. “So, Dad… how exactly do you expect me to repay you?”Her eyes drifted to Susan and Regina, a mocking smile curving her lips.“Poor Regina looks so pitiful… Aren’t you afraid my ‘repayment’ might be exactly what she deserves?”“Shantal Harver!” Roger roared, his fury boiling over. His hand shot back, ready to slap her across the face.But just as his palm hovered mid-air, a deep, authoritative voice cut through the room.“What’s going on here?”The voice wasn’t loud, but the weight behind it was enough to freeze everyone in place.Roger’s raised hand stopped immediately.Ullysis was standing in the doorway, led

Roger and Susan immediately realized something was wrong with Regina. They both jumped from their seats, panic flashing across their faces.“Regina… Regina, are you okay?” Roger’s voice trembled as he leaned toward her.Regina’s face was pale as a sheet, her lips turning an ominous shade of blue. Her body trembled faintly , clear signs of a heart attack.Susan’s composure shattered. “Call Dr. Hopkins! Hurry!” she screamed at the maids.Dr. Hopkins was the Harver family’s long-time physician. After the old Mr. Harver passed away, Hopkins didn’t leave. He stayed behind to care for Shantal. Even after Shantal married Ullysis, Dr. Hopkins remained in the Zellweger household, conveniently rebranded as their “family doctor.”The dining room descended into chaos as servants scrambled.But at the table, Shantal and Ullysis sat unmoving, their expressions untouched by the panic.Shantal’s eyes were sharp, cold as they swept over the scene. Then, her voice cut through the tension like glass.“

Roger held Susan’s hand firmly as he made his promise.It was what she wanted to hear, at least on the surface.But deep down, it wasn’t enough.He only cared about taking Shantal’s 40% share of the Harver fortune.But Susan? She wanted everything.Of course, she wouldn’t let Roger see her true ambition just yet.“What Regina needs is your love, not your property,” she said softly, wearing a sweet smile like a mask.Roger chuckled. “I know. Regina’s a good girl. That’s why I want to give her everything I have.”They sat together on the couch, chatting quietly. Before long, the talk turned to what happened earlier that night.“There’s something off about Shantal tonight,” Roger said, frowning. “She’s always been good to Regina… it’s not like her.”“Maybe she’s just in a bad mood,” Susan replied, though even she didn’t fully believe that.Shantal had her flaws, but one thing was certain, she never lashed out for no reason. Especially not at her stepmother or stepsister.At that moment,
