“Well ... .Well…Well, looks like I am the one that will be getting married to Roselyn pretty soon.”Mark said with a congerous tone in his tongue.
‘I am the only one going through with this competition because this man is a coward, he has no balls to pull all this off.’ Don approached Mark, he faked a punch instead he fixed the collar of Mark like a then whispered to his ears.
‘Look at the person that wants to compete with me….he can't even take over his father's company and he wants to crack a multimillionaire deal.’ Don said indirectly mocking Mark.
Grandma Nona intentionally made this competition to make Don feel bad and quit it so Mark can win and get married to Roselyn and live a rich and comfortable life.
She went on saying The Herbal Rise company works for Four Major Families and they have to take their time convincing them to have a contract with their company and crack the deal.
She smirked then went on asking if the men were ready for their quests and the first to bring back home the victory will be the new groom of beautiful Roselyn.
The grandma also went on saying, “nobody is allowed to use the family company name to whom it is the case but to use their business and ideas to make sure one of them gets the reward.
That was what made Don ask worried because he had to bring up a way to use his business for the contract. He had an idea and decided to instruct his secretary to find out all she knew about the family and to tell him when she was done.
Roselyn was looking for chances to talk to Don but looks like he didn't want to say anything to her and he kept on avoiding her. He got a message from her to meet him outside and he didn't reply but he decided to go.
“You don't have to do this if you don't want to , I can tell grandma to cancel the deal and tell them I am not leaving you no matter what.”Roselyn said, making some unusual steps towards Don, but he stepped off and said. “I am going to win and I will make sure I save our marriage.” He left to start his journey.
When Don was at home sorting out some files and sipping an Herbal homemade tea, he got a call from his secretary which doesn't not like it was a good news.
“Yes daniella…..speak up i am listening.”he said with a fury facial expression in his face.
Well …….Well …sir, she was so drowned into her own fear. But Don was getting furious and impatient.
“Talk or you are fired! Don yelled at her, diverting the anger inside him to her. Then she later found courage to tell him the truth and decided to go for it.
She told him that the four major families were the one partially responsible for the death of his parents because they robbed his family of their wealth. After listening to all that she said to him, He became so depressed and decided that he needed to be alone.
He went to his shelf and took the cigarette which was there and decided to smoke his pain away. He smoked something to be able to clear his mind and give him a solution on how to execute his plan.
He took a bottle of vodka and was drinking it while having flashback of how his dad lost his business within a twinkle of an eye and how his dad had to beg to get beg for mercy.
He took the bottle and broke it on the floor and took a piece of the bottle and slit his hand, which made blood flow and he used his blood to write revenge on his mirror and picked his phone to call the secretary.
“I want a report on my parents death file and how each of the families are responsible for their death within two days.” He switched the phone after the call and stared at the mirror until he fell asleep.
In the next morning, Don wore his vest and trousers and took his briefcase and he was on his way to the office of the Herbal Rise company. He got into his small car and drove off while in the car was having flashbacks of his parents death and what caused their death.
He decided to call his secretary on the confirmation of the meeting he was having with the CEO, “Good morning sir, I have arranged your meeting with the CEO and he will be waiting for you and besides he is nothing before you.” He smirked and cut the call and drove faster.
He drove into the company building and got down and took his briefcase with him. He arrived at the reception section then saw Mark with his uncle who also had an appointment with the CEO. Mark's uncle met the CEO at a party gathering so they are well known friends.
Well…Don it is not too late to give up, I already have every tools to make me win the completion easily. Mark said making his way to the reception counter.
He took off his glasses which left a smile on the face of the receptionist as she was so impressed with the look of Mark and asked him what she could do for him.
Then he told her to give him directions to the CEO office, she sent a messenger to take Mark to the office of their boss.
Don went to talk to the receptionist also, but looks like she is disgusted by the look of Don. “Who are you, and who allowed you into this building, you look so poor to be in this place.” She mocking the appearance of Don.
Which made Don angry and told her to mind her tongue or she will regret it and be paying the price with her job.
She didn't believe a word which he said so she sent him out of her sight.
chapter 8- Don sat across from the COO of Herbal Rise, his expression calm and composed. The room was tastefully furnished, but Don barely noticed the details. His focus was entirely on the task at hand. The man before him had power, but not nearly as much as Don intended to wield by the end of this meeting."Mr. Donovan," the COO began, adjusting his glasses and glancing at the notes in front of him. "You mentioned you have a vision for a new herbal product line. I'm intrigued, but also curious—what exactly do you have in mind?"Don leaned forward slightly, his voice steady and measured. "Herbal Rise has always been about quality, but the market is shifting. People want more than just products—they want a brand they can trust, something that feels personal. I propose we develop a new line that focuses on premium, ethically sourced ingredients. Products that aren't just effective, but that tell a story."The COO raised an eyebrow, clearly interested but cautious. "And you believe this
CHAPTER 9 - Don drove home with a sense of triumph coursing through his veins. The deal with Herbal Rise had gone through, solidifying his position and ensuring that his plan to bring down those responsible for his family’s demise was well on its way. He could barely contain his excitement as he thought about how Roselyn would react to the news. She had been his rock through everything, and now he was ready to share this victory with her.As he pulled into the driveway, Don could see the warm lights of their home glowing through the windows. He entered the house and found Roselyn waiting for him in the living room, her expression a mix of hope and nervous anticipation.“You’re back!” she exclaimed, standing up quickly. “How did it go?”Don’s face broke into a wide smile. “It’s done,” he said, his voice filled with pride. “I closed the deal with Herbal Rise.”Roselyn’s eyes lit up with joy, and she rushed to him, throwing her arms around his neck. “I knew you could do it!” she said, he
CHAPTER 10- Don sat on the edge of the bed, staring out of the window as the first rays of morning light crept into the room. The events of the past days had left him restless, his mind spinning with the weight of the secrets he had been carrying. Roselyn stirred beside him, her presence a comfort, yet he knew that he could no longer keep the truth from her. She deserved to know the full extent of what had driven him to secure the deal with Herbal Rise.Roselyn opened her eyes and immediately noticed the tension in Don’s posture. She sat up, placing a gentle hand on his back. “Don, what’s wrong? You’ve been so quiet since last night. I can tell something’s bothering you.”Don turned to her, his expression somber. He took her hand in his, holding it tightly as if drawing strength from her touch. “Roselyn, there’s something I need to tell you,” he began, his voice low and serious. “Something I should have told you a long time ago.”Roselyn’s heart skipped a beat. She could see the gravi

She promises to help Mark to destroy their marriage and make him her renowned son-in-law. Phoenix partially disowned Roselyn for making a bad decision and promises to give her a second chance only if she goes back to Mark.“You have to go back to Mark ….to secure a bright future.” Phoenix said while trying to manipulate Roselyn once again.“Well I've decided on my own future mom, and my future is not with Mark.” Roselyn shades back at her mom.Phoenix was so devastated after listening to her own daughter turn against her so

After listening to this Rosellyn decided that she needed to listen closely to whatever Don had to day. Why are you more worried about me? Roselyn asked.Can't you see what is going on Don said angry and bit

Mark could feel the heavy breath of Austin which made him uncomfortable.without getting the permission of Austin, Caleb went towards Mark and held his shirt and pinned him to the walls. He did this because he was expecting Mark to introduce himself but Mark was just playing around.“My brother is so calm and generous, he might spare your life but I won't stop at nothing to waste you now.” Caleb commented furiously with range going through his mind.“Why don't we have a drink and talk this through”.
