All Chapters of Revenge Of The Secret Heiress : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

A lot happened in just under two days. First, Anika could not still wrap her mind around Christopher being able to obtain confidential documents from Vanguard. He just laughed over it when she asked. Thankfully, he did not break into her house again but had always knocked and invited himself in to cook breakfast. Then there was Casey, who explained her sob story of moving from Tokyo after failing a really hard exam and was scared to go back to complete her program. So she was in need of a job. She was smart and sweet, very quick-thinking. Anika liked her, so she earned the spot of being her P.A. easily. And then at work, Anna had been too friendly towards her. Always talking loudly to everyone about how she had always been a good friend to her. Selena gave them a lot of paperwork to do just the second day of her resumption. She wasn’t complaining, though; it helped her learn more about the company. And she was able to see how they operated internally. That evening, Casey was sa

The elevator doors opened, and Desiree Gold was led straight onto the Delacroix supply chain and logistics floor. She dramatically thanked the lady who had brought her upstairs, then advanced into the office.In her heavy pearls and expensive tweed jacket, Desiree made her voice annoyingly loud topping it with a fake smile, purposely drawing the attention of the entire department."Hello, dearie," she called out, her voice echoing across the room. "Hello, everyone! I’m Anika's mother-in-law, Desiree Gold."The room went completely silent. Tobey looked up from his desk, his sharp eyes narrowing. Anna froze, her gaze shifting between Desiree and Anika with pure, anxious envy. She wanted to be noticed too, so she simply stood up. "Mother, it's so nice to see you." She advanced towards Desiree. "You should have called, we would have ordered something really nice for you!"Desiree maintained her smile."Don't worry, dearie. I brought snacks! Handmade of course, with lots of love."Cassandr

Her eyes fixed on Tobey, who was still systematically organizing his shipping logs. It was already 5 minutes past closing hour and he was still there on his system. After another 5 minutes has past, he finally logged out and shut his system. Anna turned to her own system, pretending to still be stuck on work. Then she casually turned to him, forcing a bright, casual wave. "Bye, Tobey."Tobey didn't look up from his monitor, "You're still around?" He asked, now he was up on his feet and had swung his bag to his back. "Yeah," Anna said, her voice came with a desperate, heavy envy as she glanced toward Anika’s vacant, tidy desk. "I just have a ton of work left to finish up before tomorrow. The marketing files are a complete mess.""Okay," Tobey said, and walked straight toward the exit without another word. The heavy glass doors clicked shut behind him, leaving Anna completely alone in the dim room.The moment his footsteps faded down the hall, Anna’s sweet facade completely shattered.

Anika kept her eyes on her screen. "The problem is solved, Tobey. We have work to do." She said to him in a fierce tone as Tobey kept on pestering her, revealing his suspicions on what had just happened.“An ordinary worker gets framed for a corporate leak, and HR brings the cybersecurity head to cause an immediate firing within ten minutes of clocking in?" He let out a sharp breath. "That doesn't happen. Not in this company. Not unless someone at the absolute top pulled the trigger."Anika turned her head slowly, her classy, unbothered gaze locking onto his. "Then we should be grateful the top management is efficient. Pack your files, Tobey. The joint operations team is waiting for us upstairs."When Anika and Tobey walked onto the executive floor, the office was quiet. Christopher's personal staff members were already at their desks, quietly sorting through papers. But the main chair at the head of the conference table was completely empty.Throughout the whole briefing, Anika found

A gorgeous young woman in a tailored, fitted nurse’s uniform was standing by the living room counter, organizing a tray of medical supplies. She had perfect makeup, sharp features, and a highly confident aura.Anika froze, her brow furrowing as she stared at her. "Huh? Who is this?"The woman turned around, her eyes scanning Anika from head to toe with a cool, professional gaze. “Oh hello. Are you the delivery person?”Anika blinked. She looked at herself from up to her feet…how did she looked like a delivery person in her smart outfit? She wasn't wearing any uniform?“No, I came by to drop this.” She stretched forward the porridge to her. “Where's Christopher? And Casey too?” Anika made sure her voice was still firm. She did not want to feel any low self esteem standing next to this lady.“He's resting and I don't want him to be disturbed. And Casey is…busy. I'll feed him the porridge so don't worry.” She said, about to take the porridge from her hand. She looked around and saw two
