Hailey raised up her neck like one who was proud of what she was yet to say. "Well, you and I created magic together. Believe it or not, I was the actual reason why you became this big again. So, we are a team, and you should come back to your team. We’re good together, and I admit that I may not have treated you so well in the past but I was just trying to inspire you to do better. And look at you now, you’re doing great. I deserve some credit for that, not to be tossed aside like I mean nothing when we both know that you love me.""With the way you raised up your eyebrows before speaking, one would think you were about to say something wise. Only to be disappointed by the stupid shit you spew over and over again. Each time you talk, I'm disappointed, when I should be used to it by now. But you want to know why I can't get accustomed to how you talk? It is because somehow you manage to sound even more stupid than you sounded a second before saying another word. Now, haven't you just

Cade decided that it was time to act. He had not come out publicly to address the whole situation concerning the alleged rape that Hailey accused him of, even though his PR and marketing team thought it was wise of him to, since the trending hashtag had gone from just a hashtag, to calling for Cade's arrest. He had decided not to do any of that because he wanted to prove his innocence in court not on social media. Alex had also come out, using the whole situation for his own advantage. He even began a move against Cade, saying that he was no part of Cade's misdoings, as if anyone asked him. And was now actively campaigning to take Cade’s spo as CEO. Cade did not mind Alex's noise on the social media. He knew that Alex was always looking for something against him, and Hailey had served him that opportunity on a golden platter. Cade thought of giving her the option of coming out to the public with the truth by herself instead of fighting it out at court, but that would just be him bein

Hailey sat down on the recliner in her house filing her nails. She was indoors more nowadays than she was before the false accusation of rape she passed on Cade. Since the lawsuit, she had been receiving cancellations from so many social media platforms and even people on the physical level. All she could do now was hide behind the shelter of her grandfather's mansion. Her fiance had also called off their engagement, due to the fact that Hailey had been lying to him all these while. Before he called off the engagement, he made sure to get the truth from her that day."Tell me the truth, Hailey," he said while they sat in his room after the court case, "I deserve to be told the truth. I want to hear it from you. Were you really trying to seduce the man? Was all he said true?" Evan had asked.Hailey pitied the man more than she respected him. So, out of that pity she told him the truth. She sighed before she began. It was going to be a long story. "He was my husband before, while we we

It was a week now since Cade's visit to Papa's mansion, and each time he remembered Mrs Bellwether's confession, he fumed with anger. He thought long and hard about what Hailey said to him and could understand her pain to an extent but it was no excuse to mistreat him the way they had done. But what he could not understand was why they had kept silent about Papa's will and even changed it to what they wanted. For the first time in a long while, Cade did not know what to do. He was torn between letting the Bellwethers be, or taking his revenge on them, especially for depriving him of his full privilege. He wanted to leave them alone because he could understand from Hailey's point of view, but he wanted to teach them a lesson for being so corrupt, so wicked. He wanted to get his revenge on them for being treated like trash. He made up his mind. He would get to the root of this. He would find Barnes and only when he found him would he carry out any action he had in mind for the Bellwethe

Gale was proficient when it came to running Cade's errands, and as Cade had asked, Gale had found the two men who could carry out his spy mission efficiently. He did not even have to go far, though he had initially thought it would be a hard task to find the spies as asked by Cade. But when he got home that day, he had the task figured out. And now, on his way to work, he whistled in excitement. He wondered how Cade would take it, he hoped his boss would like his choice. The day at work started with meetings held by the board concerning the matter at hand. The board had not come to a decision on the matter in their previous meeting, and even though Gale knew Cade had already decided, the board would still hold a meeting to make a final decision that included every member of the board. The meeting began a few minutes after everyone had assembled in the board room. Cade looked calmer today than he was yesterday. He was neither rattled nor surprised like he was the previous day. Today,
