From Scorn to Throne: William Anderson's Journey Merida's Tactics
Merida had spent the last few hours with a nervous heart and a rapid heartbeat. She had planned this carefully, making sure that every detail had been considered. She realized her plan was risky, but she believed it was the only way to get what she wanted.In her quiet bathroom, Merida looked at herself in the mirror. She had made up her face to look miserable, utilizing her make-up to give the illusion of puffy eyes and red cheeks, signs of a long, intense cry.Next, she took a small package from her dressing table drawer. Inside were the ingredients she needed to make fake wounds. Carefully, she applied the materials to her face and neck, creating bruises and scratches that looked very real.Her plan was to lie to William. She would say that this was Jordan's doing. Merida would make up a story about a big fight between her and her lover.Once everything was in order, she would call William. Although William was hesitant at first, Merida managed to threaten him so that he would stil
From Scorn to Throne: William Anderson's Journey I Can Fool You Too
"William, I need you," Merida said in a worried tone of voice. Her eyes were sparkling, it was obvious that there was something she was hiding behind that fearful tone."Need me, for what?" asked William, his brow furrowed in a suspicious frown. He looked at Merida, trying to read what was really going on. William felt that something was not right.Merida glanced at William, her eyes sparkling slyly. "You can protect me, William," she said in an almost whispered voice, as if seducing. Her fingers slowly touched William's hand, a gentle gesture that seemed meaningless, but full of hidden messages."In what way?" William was getting confused. He felt Merida's cold fingers touch his hand, making his hair stand up. Something was not right, but he could not determine what it was."By letting me come back to you," Merida said as she looked down, as if embarrassed. However, William could see something else behind that expression. There was a sly gleam in her eyes, a plan she was unraveling.

"I'm still the one who has nothing," William said in a low voice. The atmosphere became silent for a moment. A gust of wind added drama to William's words. His face looked serious, his eyes looking straight at Merida."What do you mean?" asked Merida, her brow furrowed, trying to understand what William really meant. The atmosphere became tense, and their hearts beat faster."Well, if you want to talk about money, I'm still the same person." William pretended to be sad, his eyes glancing at Merida, trying to catch every expression that appeared on her face. He felt the need to test Merida's reaction, to see to what extent she could accept the fact that she was not a rich person."So here's the thing, Merida," William continued with a long sigh. "When I was working and I did well, my boss gave me a one-time shopping bonus and it was free to shop anywhere." He paused for a moment, waiting for Merida's reaction.Merida looked surprised, "So, are you saying that next time you won't be abl

As Vera was lying in her room, Robert came in with some other friends. She was fine, just too weak to get up. The presence of friends was enough to encourage her.It's just that, of the few who came, Vera did not find a familiar figure with her. Her eyes searched for a face that was not seen today. "You didn't come with William?" she asked.Jordan, who was sitting by the window, sighed as he faced Vera. "Stop it, Vera. Why ask that one loser?" he said in a snide tone. He turned to Robert, who was sitting next to him. "Robert and I are much more useful to you here and at least Robert brought you vitamins and food suitable for your recovery."Robert liked Jordan's comment.Vera just snorted. "Where's Merida?" she asked again, trying to change the subject."I don't know either." Jordan shrugged his shoulders." t's a wonder you're not together." Robert looked a little confused. He knew Jordan and Merida were usually together. They were quite a couple these days.Jordan shrugged, looking

From Scorn to Throne: William Anderson's Journey Jeremy's Command
Andy was one of the students who lived in the dormitory with the other students, even though he was the son of a rich man. He was not arrogant. In fact, sometimes he would buy a lot of food and share it with the dorm kids. They even nicknamed Andy the angelic class president.Andy and four other friends were relaxing in their room. A young man with shiny jet-black hair walked in. He was William.He came in with a big bag and two cardboard boxes to store his belongings."Hey, are you going to stay in the dorm?" asked Andy, his hawk-like eyes scrutinizing William up and down."Yeah," William replied, smiling faintly. He looked a bit awkward. They looked at him with concern. Probably because of the cardboard boxes and his shabby clothes. In fact, William was actually chauffeured by his grandfather in a Lamborghini."I hope you can accept me." William made small talk.Andrew, Andy's roommate who was busy with his laptop was quite surprised to hear William's voice. He looked at William and

There must be a plan hidden.William would follow Belinda. "Well, that's all right. What should I do for her?" he asked. His voice sounded flat, his eyes also kept staring at Belinda.Tania helped Belinda get up. As she straightened up she whimpered in pain while grimacing, adding to the dramatic effect. "My leg hurts so much, I can't go back to my house," she complained softly.Jeremy, the dorm leader who turned out to be Belinda's cousin, came down to check on his cousin who he heard had fallen on the slippery floor. His eyes moved back and forth between William and Belinda, trying to understand the situation."What's going on?"Belinda turned to Jeremy. "Nothing," she replied in a weak voice.Jeremy did not accept
From Scorn to Throne: William Anderson's Journey You Can't Fight Him
William and Belinda were outside Belinda's large house located in the city center. They were in the car, William helping to unbuckle the seatbelt. He got out of the car first to open Belinda's door. The girl should have gotten out right away, but instead she stayed put waiting for William to carry her."Wait here, I'll call your family to help you inside," William said.However, this was not Belinda's plan. "No way!" she refused. "You have to take me to my room!" Belinda insisted that William help her do it.William was sure there was something this woman was keeping. "I'll ask a servant or someone from your house to carry you inside," he said, trying to be logical.Belinda gave William a sly look. "Who says I need their help?" she challenged, making William feel even more suspicious of the girl's intentions."Carry me inside or I'll report to Jeremy and the others that you're not taking responsibility for me!" threatened Belinda, taking William by surprise. Belinda knew how to make W

"Divorce my husband?""That's right, Vera," Sarah continued. "You're so heartless to stay married to a husband who has already displaced your mother from her former position."William smiled at that. He said, "Sarah, my mother-in-law got a higher position if you must know. Anyway, I did it because I thought it was time for JL. CORP to do better and for my mother-in-law to rest and enjoy the

Amanda went limp, she was unsteady. Fortunately, Vera caught her before she fell."Mom, are you okay?"Amanda just shook her head slowly.

I hope that from today I will be well received. Ple

"Wow! Isn't that the latest Bugatti that costs so much?" Stephani exclaimed as she saw a Bugatti parked in front of her office. A man got out after the car door was opened by the driver."Hey, isn't that Evan Nolan?" Deborah asked as she pointed at the man who had just opened the car door for William.Stephani noticed again from the upper floor where they were watching the handsome man who had just gotten out of the car. "Oh my, isn't that Ms. Vera's husband?" "Ms. Vera's husband?" Deborah asked with her eyebrows knitted together. Then, she chuckled, "Huh, I don't think that's possible. How could Ms. Vera's husband come to the city office in such a nice car. Who does he think he is?""I don't know, but look again," Stephani pointed out the window. "That is indeed Ms. Vera's husband.""Huh, is it really him?" Deborah asked again. "If it is him, what is he doing here?" Stephani shrugged her shoulders, "I don't know. This is bound to be big news."While they were talking about William

The Rolls-Royce that William gave to Vera yesterday was in the name of Grand Street Commercial, not in the name of Vera or William. Meaning, they were using the company's inventory, not their own. That's what Sarah thought.Sarah laughed at that. She almost thought yesterday that they were so rich that they could own a Rolls-Royce."Huh, apparently it's just a company owned car." She poured him a glass of orange juice.Jaiden thanked his wife before he responded to her. "Huh, I expected that. How could an unemployed man like William give such a luxurious gift."Sarah sat in front of her husband, enjoying breakfast as well. "I'm still curious how William was able to get everything so easily. I remember that he gave my grandparents quite an expensive gift and now he can still give Vera a luxurious surprise. I'm quite curious how he was able to capitalize on all that."Jaiden thought about this too. "Hemh, he must be bragging right now and proud that he was able to fool his wife with tho

"Sarah are you taking me home?" Vera asked her cousin who was still stunned from the shock of just hearing William talk about Rolls-Royce."Yeah, sure." Sarah prepared to drive Vera home. Along the way, she only watched Vera who looked happy and nervous at the same time whether her husband really bought a Rolls-Royce.She drove the car at high speed and they arrived faster than William expected.Sarah and Vera finally arrived at the apartment. They got out of the car and walked to the elevator.As soon as the elevator doors opened, they walked to the parking lot. William was already waiting there, smiling broadly. He invited them to walk further into the parking lot.Sarah and Vera's eyes were immediately drawn to an elegantly parked car. It was a shiny black car, with a striking 'RR' logo on the front. It was a Rolls-Royce.Sarah almost froze, unable to believe that there was such a thing as a Rolls-Royce.But that didn't mean it was Vera's, did it?Vera looked happy. She approached

William was checking his work from the apartment. He received some good news, the Rolls-Royce he bought yesterday was ready to be delivered to the apartment, they were on their way.He hasn't said anything to Vera yet, still wanting to keep this as a surprise."Will, I'm going to the salon today, with Sarah. Is that okay?" Vera asked. She wasn't ready because she didn't think William would let her.It wasn't about him being possessive. Rather, it was about Sarah, who would usually tease Vera, making the atmosphere uncomfortable at times."Yes, you may." William agreed without further ado. "Have you chosen a good salon?"Vera mumbled for a while. "Uh, I don't think so. Sarah hasn't said anything about which salon she'll choose either.""Wait here for a moment!" William asked Vera to wait then he sent a message to Evan asking where a good salon was for Vera to get a treatment.Evan replied quickly with the name of a good salon. William checked it out over the Internet and he thought i

Today, William is in his office to find out how their business plan is progressing.Sean Montgomery said that Lucas Anderson also liked the proposal that Vera had made. Every number listed there and what it was used for seemed realistic.Actually, there are other companies that are also good at doing business proposals. However, since William had strongly agreed to propose his wife to get into this company and also they were competing with his own mother-in-law, Lucas sided with William this time and gave his grandson a chance to prove to his in-laws that he could be a good son-in-law."Your grandfather has agreed to this and I've also told your mother-in-law to agree to your request to appoint Vera as director."William smiled. "What did my mother-in-law say when you called her yesterday?"Sean shrugged his shoulders slightly, "She didn't say anything, just went along with what I told her to do."William raised one corner of his lips. That was good, he had expected that his mother-in

Sean Montgomery is ready to say who will be working with Grand Street Commercial. However, he is still holding back his announcement. Sean didn't give a reason why he was still holding back. However, Amanda got an invitation to meet with William."Well, while I was waiting to hear from Sean Montgomery, it was surprising that my son-in-law asked to meet." Amanda said that in a sarcastic tone.Two cups of warm and fragrant lattes were soon served on the table. William, who had just arrived, immediately raised his cup, inviting Amanda to make a toast. Amanda looked at him for a while. She felt it would be rude to refuse, so she raised her cup."Mrs. Lyn, sorry to interrupt your busy time," William said with a serious face.Amanda only responded indifferently, "You should work so you know how to respect time!"William just smiled, unfazed by Amanda's words."Well, drinking a latte to put you in a better mood, I guess borrowing fifteen minutes of your time won't bother you, right?"

Vera has finalized her business proposal she submitted to the Grand Street Commercial company. However, William received other news that was no less surprising."I received two proposals from JL. CORP," Sean said as he called William."Two proposals?" William, who received the news, raised an eyebrow. "Who sent the proposals?""One in the name of Vera Lyn, your wife and the other in the name of Jhonas Rivery as the vice president of the company."William furrowed his brow. Why did Amanda plan this? Hadn't it been agreed that Vera would represent their company in the tender this time.Hemh, it seems that Amanda is secretly trying to cheat William and violate the agreement they have made.Hemh, but this is not a big deal. Because, William is the main character who controls all of this."Then you just accept both of them, during the presentation we will see the proposal that best fits our company's criteria.""Alright, Sir. I will do as you ask."Vera came out of the bathroom. Several ti
