“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for being here today. I want to address the serious allegations that have been circulating. I categorically deny any involvement in the accident that Ivy was involved in, your questions can come in now.” Dexter stood at the podium, his figure intimidating to the public.The first reporter asked,“Mr Dexter, can you provide an alibi for the time of the accident?”“Absolutely. During the time of the accident, I was on my way to a business meeting with some dignitaries when I got a call from her mother, Mr Richard can vouch for my presence. I have evidence to support my claim.” Dexter replied to him more boldly and confidently.“How do you explain the eyewitness accounts that place you at the scene?” The second reporter asked.“I understand that there may be eye witness accounts but I assure you that they are mistaken. I was not present at the accident scene.” He said, his voice getting deeper which meant he was angry but he kept his temper in check.“Wh
Ivy and Dexter enter the room, ready to face the skeptical shareholders.“Alright, Dexter, let's show them what we're made of. We need to convince them that the rumors are just baseless rumors.” Ivy said her confidence exuding through her smile.“Sure, Ivy. We'll lay out our strategy and present the facts, they'll see that our company has a solid foundation and a bright future.”They walked down together to the conference room where the highest shareholders were seated. As they entered, Ivy and Dexter sit at their respective chairs from the shareholders, their faces set in determined expressions. Ivy leans forward, her hands clasped on the table, exuding confidence and poise.“Thank you for meeting with us today. We understand your concerns about the recent events, but we believe that liquidating your stocks is not the best course of action.” Ivy said calmly.Dexter sits tall, his voice steady and authoritative as he speaks.“We have a solid plan in place to address the challenges we
The tension from the rumors having died down, Dexter and Ivy back to working together. They are both seated in his office, Dexter having other plans to get consolidation of his power.“Ivy, now that we've addressed the concerns and gained the shareholders' trust again, I think it's the perfect time to discuss expanding our business. We have a solid foundation, and it's time to take the next step.”“Of course, Dexter! I couldn't agree more. With the renewed confidence in our company, we have a great opportunity to explore new markets and grow our customer base. But we need to carefully consider the risks and ensure we have a solid plan in place.” Ivy said thoughtfully.“I've been looking into potential acquisitions and partnerships that align with our long term goals. By consolidating with complementary buisnesses, we can enhance our offering and reach a wider audience. I've been doing some research and I have a few idea on how we can go about this. I think it's important for us to sta
After a wonderful night with Dexter, Ivy arrived home to find her mother waiting for her in the living room. Her mother’s piercing gaze bore into Ivy as soon as she entered the room.“How much progress have you made with Dexter?” Her mother demanded, her tone sharp and unforgiving.Ivy hesitated, unsure of how to respond. She knew she couldn’t reveal the true nature of her dealings with Dexter, especially now that things weren't going as planned. “I’m working on it, and it's going smoothly, he finally has started trusting me,” she replied vaguely, hoping to deflect her mother’s probing questions.Her mother’s eyes narrowed with frustration. “That’s not good enough, Ivy. We need to know that Dexter is firmly under your influence before we can proceed with our plan.”Ivy could feel the tension in the room mounting. She knew her mother’s expectations were high, and failing to meet them was not an option.“I’m doing everything I can, also being careful to avoid suspicions.” Ivy insisted,
“In my whole life, I haven't seen someone as useless as you, Ryan.” Sandy said, her voice echoing through the study, her anger palpable as she unleashed a torrent of accusations at Ryan. Her eyes blazed with fury as she berated him for shooting Dexter, her words laced with frustration and disbelief."I can't believe you did that, Ryan! The plan for revenge with Ivy was tomorrow, Ryan and you had to shoot him? What were you thinking?" Sandy's voice reverberated off the walls, her emotions raw and unfiltered.Her mother, standing nearby, tried to intervene, her soothing voice a stark contrast to Sandy's raging voice. "Sandy, please calm down. Yelling won't solve anything. We need to figure out what to do next."But Sandy's anger refused to be quelled. She turned on Ryan, her eyes flashing with indignation. "How could you lose your temper like that? Yes, I know you have a grudge against Dexter, you could have sorted out your grudge if you were man enough to talk to him, but he didn't d
Sonia lay in bed, her eyes red and with bags beneath she had been crying for a long time, she didn't want to lose another person close to her. Sonia's phone rang, the sound echoed through her spacious bedroom, breaking the silence. With a sense of urgency, she picked it up to find Ivy's voice on the other end, her words tumbling out in a rush. "Sonia, it's Dexter. He's awake!"Her heart leaped with joy, and she quickly dressed, the fabric of her clothes rustling as she moved. "I have to go see him, would you follow me now at least to see him, now he's awake?" She announced to her brothers who were lounging in the living room.Alex and Jack exchanged a knowing glance before turning their attention to Sonia. "Why would we want to see him? What good would it do to us?” Jack sneered, a smirk playing on his lips.Her eyes narrowed in disbelief at their coldness. "He's our cousin. He needs us now as we are his only family.”Alex chuckled mockingly. "He doesn't need us. He's got you, Sonia.
“I don't know if you'll hate me for this, but I need to get it off my chest. The reason I got close to you, was because I needed you to trust me blindly, my mother was being manipulated and blackmailed by Mrs. Wayne. To help my mum out, I had to do as she requested, she was in a dilemma, trust me. At first, I really did want to go ahead with it after you said I was just a tool to destroy the Waynes. I was upset, and decided to follow up with the plan but then with time, I found out that you didn't mean what you said to Richard, I had a rethink. I didn't want to go through with the plan, but then Sandy's mother kept threatening me.” Ivy explained, her head down not being able to look Dexter in the eyes.Dexter dazed, didn't know what to say, just kept acknowledging Sandy. She continued tears dropping from her eyes, “I do not still know what Mrs. Wayne has got over my mum but all I know is that I was made to make you trust me and also fall in love with me, then I have sexual intercours
Dexter sat in his office, the weight of recent events finally lifting off his shoulders. The Waynes properties were now under his control, and he could finally put an end to the troubles that had plagued his family for so long. Just as he began to relax, a message popped up on his phone from an unknown number, sending a chill down his spine.“It's time," the message read. Dexter's heart raced, but he forced himself to remain composed as Richard entered the room."Hey, Dexter. You seem a bit on edge. Everything alright?" Richard asked, noticing the tension in Dexter's behavior.Dexter quickly pocketed his phone and put on a reassuring smile. "Yeah, just some last-minute business matters to attend to. But enough about that. Let's talk about the progress of our company's expansion. How are things looking?"Richard nodded, taking a seat across from Dexter. "Well, the acquisition of the Waynes properties has certainly given us a significant boost. The new assets have opened up doors for
