Grey grinned in satisfaction as he dialled a number on his phone. "Thompson, come right away to Brawlings Motors on Deloit Street," he instructed, and then he ended the call.Within a few minutes, a tall gentleman walked into the car shop and Grey instructed him to drive Laurel's new car to his hou
"Of course I do. This low-life shouldn't have been invited to such a party as this! I'm sure he hasn't eaten good food like the one served here or even seen such a beautiful place as this, all his entire miserable life! I need someone to kick the bastard out of here at once!" Mrs Pitts growled at G
"Useless dog!" Laurel added. "Enough of this nonsense! Don't you have any sense of decorum?" John stepped forward, shifting his gaze to Laurel and Sam.To him, it was getting out of hand, and he needed to stop the brawls, as it was purely inappropriate!Grey smiled casually and stood up from his se
"Hahaha..." Grey burst into laughter upon hearing Laurel's lies. "If she and Sam claim that all I'm saying is a lie, then I urge everyone present to listen to this!" Without wasting any time, Grey played an audio record. He had recorded Sam and Laurel's conversations at the car shop. He increase
Upon seeing her mother and Mrs Pitts' reaction, despite the turnout of things, Laurel was encouraged. She stood up from the floor and held Sam tightly, leaning her head on his shoulder. "Who are you, anyway? You should be rather ashamed of yourself for confronting me. Can you even take care of her
"Shut up, fool!" Mrs Pitts rushed towards Grey to hit him, but before she could do anything, John blocked her. Vera was seething in anger when she saw Grey and John teaming up against them."What a pair of fools?! Loser, you asked for a divorce, and Laurel would gladly honour that request! How coul
After Greg and his men left the party, Sam, Laurel, Vera, and Mrs Pitts also departed. They were pleased with how Greg had dealt with John recklessly. The fool deserved it, anyway!After all, what gave the loser such stupid guts to confront them?!Sam, Laurel, Vera, and Mrs Pitts wished that Greg
John was bewildered. He didn't expect Laurel to be so heartless! She felt no sense of remorse or pity despite being the one behind his present predicament. Even if she wanted a divorce, couldn't she at least wait for him to leave the hospital? This was enough confirmation of Grey's revelation tha
Grey's reputation grew exponentially across Croatway and all over Weston. His success in business and his dramatic rescue of his wife and child had made him a household name. Newspapers, television channels, and social media platforms were abuzz with stories of his exploits and excellence. Grey bec
Grey paced his living room, waiting for any news on Nora. She had been missing for hours, and every minute felt like an eternity. He had already contacted the police, but they had found no trace of her. Desperate, Grey called his most trusted men and ordered them to start a thorough investigation al
Nora let out a gasp of terror as she was yanked backward. It was a fierce man looming over her with his grip like iron on her arm. "Thought you could get away, did you?" he snarled, dragging her back toward the house. Nora struggled, but her strength was no match for his. She held her baby even clo
The ropes binding Nora's wrists dug into her skin, but she ignored the pain. Her baby’s cries had long since faded, replaced by an eerie silence that filled her with dread. Outside the room, Bradley dialled a number with her face a mask of cold fury. “Where is Grey?” she demanded, her voice sharp a
Nora’s breath caught in her throat as she recognized them. Bradley, Carol, and Sandra—the wives of Jeff Hordes who had glared at her and her family with disdain during the reading of Jeff's will. The same women who had harbored resentment towards her and Grey for receiving the bulk of Jeff’s estate.
Nora was driving home from work one evening, the sky a soft orange as the sun set behind the hills. Her thoughts were a jumble of the day’s events and the upcoming plans she had for the weekend. In the back seat, her newborn baby slept peacefully in the car seat, while her carer, Emily, hummed a lul
Noah and Oliver, Bradley's sons, sat in the average living room of their mother's house with their expressions hard and their voices, heated. The fallout from Jeff Hordes' Will had left a bitter taste in their mouths, and they couldn’t let it go. “This is absurd,” Oliver said, pacing the floor, his
The sprawling Hordes mansion in Croatway was a hive of activity. Cars lined the long driveway, and people milled about, exchanging hushed greetings and speculative glances. It was a rare occasion that brought the entire Hordes family together, and the air was thick with anticipation and a touch of u
PART 2 (QUARTER TO THE END) The Hordes family hospital was a sprawling complex, renowned for its state-of-the-art facilities and expert medical staff. Inside one of the wards, Jeff Hordes lay critically ill in one of the private suites. He had been battling a severe illness for weeks, and despite
