Isabella stated, “Well, I was the lady who Justin kicked out from his father's house during his welcoming party. Considering that it's challenging to get his father's contact because of his status, I was able to get your phone number from someone you knew so well.”“Hold on, young woman. Who is this person who gave you my phone number without my knowledge? And why did you ask for my contact to call me? Do we have unfinished business with you?” Mr. Fernando asked her numerous questions at a time, wondering why Justin's ex-girlfriend wanted to speak with him.“Forgive me for this, sir,” Isabella pleaded. “ I needed to reach out to Mr. Hemsworth, and there was no way I could do that. However, after finding out that I can only get to him through you, I decided to look for someone closer to you to get your phone number.”“Young woman, what exactly do you need? Because as it stands now, Mr. Hemsworth, who you want to communicate with, is currently busy, and he's always busy. So…” before Mr.

After staring at each other for a while, Ariana inquired.“ Are you referring to Wilson's father? Or are you talking about someone else?”“Yes, Ariana. I'm referring to your so-called boyfriend's father. He's planning to eliminate Dad. That's what I wanted to tell you earlier, but you were so occupied by his fake love that you were not ready to leave him.” Before Justin could complete his statement and close his mouth, Ariana had cut into his words.“I knew it,” she said as she quickly stood up from her seat and gazed at Justin with skeptical brows.“You knew what, Ariana?” Justin asked, confused. “I knew that you hated Wilson from the time you came back home and saw him with me. What's your problem with me dating him, huh? So this is a plan for me to stop dating him, right? Do you also plan to make me stay single like you…?”“Enough of this rubbish, Ariana. What made you think I would want to separate you from your boyfriend for no reason? In fact, I don't care whether you would break

They looked at themselves for a while as though Justin should attend to the media team or not.“Let's go,” said Mr. Hemsworth as he stood up from his seat after a long time of silence.Both Justin and Ariana looked at themselves and then nodded before following their father, who was already moving out of the house to meet the media crew.Just as they stepped outside, they were welcomed with flashes of camera lights as the reporters were ready to interview Justin concerning the situation at hand.“Sir,” one of the reporters attempted to approach Justin but was stopped by his guards.“Allow them to ask whatever they want to ask,” said Mr. Hemsworth to the guards who were stopping the reporters from approaching their boss.The guards stepped aside, allowing the reporters to come forward, and stood closer to Justin, who appeared terrified.“My name is Anabella and these are my colleagues from different News channels,” the reporter introduced herself.Justin didn't say a word, rather, he no

Now, Pres. Donald and his son, Dawson, were in the enormous and well-decorated living room as they watched the LIVE broadcast News from the television.“What rubbish is this man saying? Is he saying that you as the president of this great nation aren't doing your job or what?” Dawson slammed his palms against the armrest, enraged by what Justin said earlier in the interview with the News reporters.“Well, I don't blame his childishness. I blame his father for bringing back such an illiterate to his house. Who in this nation can't testify to all the good things we have been doing? Is it because the orphanage home's budget wasn't met on time due to some issues that's why he's saying this? He appeared like a gentleman, but it's now clear to me that he's a fool.” Pres. Donald spoke through gritted teeth.“Father, I think you need to do something about this before it gets out of him. I'm convinced that people would believe what he's saying, which is not true. This will tarnish your reputati

Immediately she arrived at the enormous living room, she stiffened and gazed at Dawson, who was attempting to stand up from his seat.Diana's blood began to boil, causing her to clench her fist as if she were about to wrestle someone.She felt like strangling Dawson because he was the reason her mother kicked Justin out of the house.Diana, on the other hand, was upset with her mother because she had lied to her about who the visitor was.“Hey, Diana,” Dawson said, motioning to Diana, who was staring at him with gritted teeth. “ Why have you been ignoring my calls?”“How dare you come to my father's house? Who gave you my address?” Diana clenched her fist and spoke with gritted teeth.“Come on, Diana. You should be happy seeing me here,” Dawson spoke as tried to cover the space between them.“Stay back, Dawson,” Diana said sternly, pointing her index finger at him, anger on her face.“Why should I, uh? Don't you need someone like me to comfort you? Do you want to live your life this wa

When they noticed Diana turning her head from her mother to stare intently at the television, they also turned to face the direction in which the big plasma screen was positioned.Their gaze was drawn to the prominently displayed news headline on the television screen.It says, “A WOMAN JUMPED OUT FROM A WINDOW ON THE FOURTH FLOOR OF A TEN-STORY BUILDING.”The headline piqued their interest, and they were eager for the news reporter to read the story in depth.Just then, a short video of the woman jumping out the window and landing on the floor appeared on the screen.

“Father, I'm scared,” Wilson Rolland announced to his father as he sat opposite his father with his legs crossed.“You fear what exactly?” Mr. Rolland Elias asked as he puffed out smoke from his mouth.“Do you think we would succeed in this mission?” Wilson complained.“Stop speaking in parables and explain to me what you mean. What's it?” Mr. Rolland was outraged.“Come on, father. Why are you asking me questions as if you have no idea of our plans? I'm referring to our mission of finding out the secret behind Mr. Hemsworth's well. The whole thing is about to get out of hand,” Wilson let out.“What do you mean by that?” Mr. Rolland was lost. “ What made you think we can't find out his secrets and get rid of him, Wilson? Is Mr. Hemsworth a spirit? I'm convinced that you know how I have gotten rid of countless people without anyone questioning me.”“I know, father. No one questions you because they are aware of what you do in secret. However, keep in mind that our secrets are beginning
