Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 10. Humiliation
In the car, Glenn was unaware when Hazel rode her bike back; her heart was deeply wounded. While four beautiful women with heavy makeup on either side of him conversed with each other, Glenn's mind wandered back to his earlier encounter with Hazel.As the image of Hazel's drenched clothes crossed his mind again, he unconsciously swallowed hard."Glenn, what are you imagining with that smirk on your face?" teased one of the women, his classmates."Are you picturing us serving you later?" another woman asked, followed by laughter, making the car lively."Who would've thought Glenn could be this wild?" quipped one of the women; Glenn lazily glanced at her."Amber is too greedy in exploiting you, Glenn..." added the woman, her hand caressing Glenn's bare chest.Glenn caught her hand."Shall we continue this later, hmm?" he asked playfully.The four women in the car cheered excitedly. Glenn opened a bottle of champagne for them, fueling their enthusiasm as they shared drinks from the same
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 11. Contemplate
Amber hurried back to the small room designated for her near the kitchen, cluttered with cleaning tools. The room was tiny, about the size of a bathroom at home.She shut the door a little forcefully, clearly frustrated. Anger still bubbling inside her, she growled, tossing and scratching at the small bed, kicking and clawing at the pillows to release her pent-up frustration."Men, that was so rude and despicable!""Argh!" she yelled in frustration, pacing back and forth in the room.*Creak*The door suddenly swung wide open, startling Amber and making her clutch her chest. Ms. Eugene stood there rigidly, glaring at her with wide, angry eyes, her displeasure evident on her face."Do you know what time it is?" she scolded coldly.Amber, often at a loss for words in front of Ms. Eugene, stuttered out a response. "Uh, I- I'm sorry, I thought no one else was in the back part of the house."She stepped back as Ms. Eugene approached, closing the door behind her. Ms. Eugene's eyes scanned th
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 12. What Goes Around
"Damn it!" Amber shouted as she stomped on the stairs, frustrated with her bad luck.She then contacted Jason, her boyfriend, who she was sure would take her in for a while."Yeah, Amber..." Jason answered, his voice hoarse, indicating he had just woken up."Honey... Can you come pick me up?""Huh? Pick you up? Are you allowed to come home already?" Jason asked in succession.A woman's voice sounded affectionate in the background, making Amber tense."Who's that?" she asked, her chest burning.Amber could hear Jason moving and leaving the room wherever he had been earlier. She could even hear the sound of her boyfriend closing the door gently.Amber's heart was consumed by jealousy."That's Ma, Amber... You know I'm crammed in here," Jason reasoned.But Amber knew her boyfriend was lying. She knew the creak of Jason's studio flat door perfectly; even the distance from the bed to the door was ingrained in her mind.Jason had lied and betrayed her.‘And for God's sake, does he think I d

Glenn furrowed his brows at Hazel's reaction. He recalled their amicable parting the previous night.He retracted his outstretched hand.Amber seemed calm, continuing to fold and distribute blankets as if unaffected by his presence. Glenn took the initiative to assist.His jaw tightened as he contemplated his misstep.‘Was it because Mr. Lucas is here?’ he wondered.‘Yes, maybe. She doesn't want to upset her dad.’ He concluded.The memory of Mr Lucas's ultimatum from the other day about rejecting his arranged marriage to Hazel flashed in his mind. The unfriendly reception added to his thoughts.Glenn finally acquiesced, deciding to show respect to Hazel, even though it was difficult. His peripheral vision remained fixed on her, drawn like a magnet to iron."Here, take these up, Glenn," Mr. Lucas suddenly instructed.He piled high the blankets in Glenn's arms, obstructing his view.Mr. Lucas's glance made Glenn realise that Mr. Lucas was aware of where Glenn's gaze had been directed al
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 14. A Test
Mr Lucas looked at Glenn with a questioning gaze. Xavier and Hazel did the same.As noon arrived, people began bustling in, the buzz of conversations echoing from the cafeteria below."This guy," Mr Lucas patted Xavier's shoulder."He's the hardest working young man I've known, with a visionary mission far ahead. He doesn't see his current limits as stumbling blocks; moreover, he's sharp," Mr Lucas explained.Xavier seemed flattered by the praise.For some reason, Glenn sensed a hint of sarcasm in Mr Lucas's words directed at him.He remembered that Glenn, in the past, was known for his laziness and a lack of interest in business, happily squandering his family's money on luxury items.It seemed Mr Lucas still thought of him that way.Just as he was about to speak, to contradict Mr Lucas if he had changed, he caught the warm interaction between Mr Lucas, Xavier, and Hazel.Glenn fell silent, especially when Hazel smiled at Xavier.He immediately felt out of place and time.He knew def
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 15. Return
"Father, I'll head back to my room," Glenn bid his father farewell.The elderly man resumed poring over the documents before him, deeply concentrating."Hm..." the father replied briefly.Glenn glanced at his phone screen again, typing and deleting the reply he intended to send multiple times.Once in his room, he lay on the bed and started typing a response, a smile lingering on his face since a while ago.He was busy plotting a prank on Amber. Shaking his head in disbelief, he couldn't fathom how shameless she could be.[You're right; I've gone too far. How can I make it up to you?] Glenn typed and sent it.[I'm hungry,] came Amber's brief reply.Glenn understood the underlying meaning behind Amber's message; years of living with her had familiarised him with her implied meanings.[I'll order food for you in a bit; wait,] he replied.[Wait! Send it to this address and order for five portions.] Amber quickly responded.Glenn furrowed his brow upon seeing the address Amber sent; he kn
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 16. Detention
A growl in her stomach forced Amber to wake up with a groan. Dazzling Sunbeams pierced through her window curtains and shone on her cheeks.Something soft stirred near her nostrils, reluctantly compelling her to open her eyes and see some creatures crawl before her eyes.She had never seen such a creature, prompting her to reflexively scream and leap out of bed."Aargh!!"Her voice echoed, especially when one of the red, furless pinkie mice was stepped on by her foot. Amber leapt, attempting to open the door, only to find it locked."Help!! Let me out!!" she pleaded while pounding with all her might.*Squeak*Something moved beneath her clothes, and Amber screamed even louder in panic. She tried to rid herself of the pinkie mice inside her clothing and flung it to the floor, shuddering in horror."Ms Eugene!! Open the door!!" she commanded.Outside, the servants who had been bustling about exchanged glances, awaiting Ms Eugene's reaction, who, seemingly undisturbed.The woman was tast
Revenge of the Betrayed Billionaire 17. Determination
As noon arrived, unlike usual, the servants gathered in the kitchen, betting on whether Amber would last till the end or give up. Nearly all agreed she'd give up even before the tenth bucket.The distance from that old well to the storage was almost 200 meters away, not to mention she had to climb those high, steep stairs afterwards to pour water from the bucket she carried.Amber, who managed to fill one bucket from the pulley, smiled contentedly, then carried the heavy 7-litre bucket towards the storage.Halfway there, her hands felt sore. The water she carried spilled a lot along the way due to her unstable movements. Not to mention, when she reached below the storage, her brows furrowed, seeing the steep ladder she had to climb to pour the water into the storage tank.On the third step, her shoe slipped.*Splash*"CRAP!" she cursed loudly as the water she had painstakingly carried spilled everywhere."HAHAHA," laughter echoed from inside the house, reaching Amber's ears.With a si

Glenn quickly grabbed his jacket from the back of the chair and hugged Hazel from behind. Seeing Hazel with her big belly made him fall in love with her even more. “Not now,” Hazel grumbled, annoyed. The more Hazel was irritable, the more Glenn enjoyed teasing her. They stepped out of the house and got into the car. Glenn drove at a moderate speed, occasionally reaching for Hazel’s hand and kissing it gently. Hazel felt incredibly happy, showered with love from her husband.

I know you had a lot to take care of.”They walked through the corridor and into the living room. Glenn, who had just come out of his office, joined them. They all sat comfortably on the sofa.“How does it feel to be expecting a baby?” Mei asked with a giggle.Hazel was due in four months. Time had flown by, and her belly was already showing significantly.“I feel ugly,” Hazel complained.“Ugly? You look so beautiful, Hazel. I’m even jealous of you,” Mei replied. “Being a mother is a privilege not every woman gets.”“I don’t know… I feel so emotionally unstable.” Hazel pouted.Glenn reached for Hazel’s shoulder and hugged he

195. The Good Thing
The effects of the COVID-19 virus had completely vanished in Eagertown, and everyone had returned to their normal activities without worry. Glenn’s company had become more renowned, producing vaccines not only for COVID-19 but for other diseases as well. Glenn was very busy, but he always made time for Hazel.Glenn had just left the hospital after accompanying Hazel for a pregnancy checkup, when they happened to run into Beatrice. Apparently, Beatrice had just arrived there.“Mrs. Zimmerman, what are you doing here? Are you sick?” Hazel asked.“Oh, I’m not sick, Hazel. I have a meeting with some doctors here to discuss sending medical aid to remote areas in Latin America.” Beatrice chuckled softly.“You’re really busy,” commented Glenn. “Take care of your health, Mrs. Zimmerman.”Beatrice nodded. “Thank you for your concern, Glenn.”Then she continued, “Since I happened to run into you here, Glenn, there’s something I’d like to talk about. I need your help.”Glenn was momentarily tak

“Where’s Glenn?” Yvonne asked as she and Victor approached Hazel, who was already sitting and waiting at the café where they had arranged to meet.“He’s taking Sean and his grandmother to Ms. Eugene’s place.”Yvonne only nodded briefly, then took a seat. Victor immediately started flipping through the menu, feeling very hungry.“They’re going to stay there? It seems Eagertown isn’t suitable for Sean,” Victor commented.Hazel sighed softly. “It might be too noisy here.”“Some people just don’t feel comfortable living in the city, Hazel. It doesn’t mean they don’t like being with you.”“I know.” Hazel only nodded wearily.Hazel felt dizzy and her stomach was uneasy, but she forced herself to meet Yvonne and Victor because she wanted to discuss the charity. Yvonne was going to provide a report on the funds that had been allocated and where they had been sent, including to Ms. Eugene’s place.However, Hazel didn’t want to talk about that at all; she just wanted to lie down in bed.“Hazel?

The atmosphere there was busy, as everyone was hard at work building the town. Glenn got out of the car along with Sean and Grandma Mari. As Glenn expected, it seemed that Sean and the grandmother were immediately captivated. Both of them looked at Glenn.“This is a very nice place, Glenn,” praised Sean.From the crowd, Ms. Eugene emerged with a wide smile. She immediately greeted Glenn, Sean, and Grandma Mari.“This must be Sean and Grandma Mari,” nodded Ms. Eugene. “Mr. Glenn has called me, and I am really delighted if you want to stay here.”Grandma Mari agreed. “Of course. I feel at home already.”“You can look around if you like,” offered Ms. Eugene.Sean and the grandmother held hands, and they soon mingled with the people busy at work. Meanwhile, Glenn and Ms. Eugene watched over the bustling activity.“You’re very busy here?” asked Glenn.Ms. Eugene chuckled. “We got a lot of help from Mrs. Zimmerman’s charity and Miss Yvonne.”“Oh, really?”It turned out that the charity ment

192. Proposal
A week after Mason's funeral, Beatrice visited Glenn's office. According to Mason's mandate, the company acquired by Glenn would still provide Beatrice with the remaining funds. It was no small amount since Glenn had bought Mason’s company at a fair price.Beatrice had signed the documents and handed them to Glenn. She looked very composed, though her heart had been broken twice after losing Mason forever.“It’s all done, Glenn. Thank you for your cooperation,” Beatrice said.“Once again, my deepest condolences, Mrs. Zimmerman.”A faint smile appeared on Beatrice’s lips. “What happened to Mason did break my heart. But in the end, he tried to be a good person, and I am still proud of him.”There was a light in Beatrice’s eyes, indicating she had come to terms with everything. Even when Mason returned, he was the Mason she had once known.“He will be remembered as a good man. I will make sure of that,” Glenn nodded.“Thank you, you are very kind.”“So, what are your plans moving forwa

Eleanor brought a cup of hot coffee, and though she had changed her clothes, her face still looked disheveled. She smiled sweetly as she placed the coffee on the table, then sat next to Mason. She tried to touch him, but Mason gently moved her hand to the sofa.“Once again, I’m sorry, Eleanor. But I can’t continue our relationship,” Mason said.“You’re going back to Beatrice, aren’t you?”“No. But we’ve made peace, and I know she doesn’t want me anymore.”“Then why? Why are you going back to her?” Eleanor asked, her eyes sad. “Stay here with me.”Mason gave a faint smile, his face looking sorrowful. He felt like the most despicable person in the world, having hurt both Beatrice and now Eleanor. They both deserved happiness, something Mason couldn’t offer.When Beatrice decided to keep their relationship as friends for now, Mason accepted it. He felt he had to be fair, which meant Eleanor also needed to find her own happiness.“You need to find your own happiness, Eleanor.” Mason kisse

Beatrice, looking calm, went to see Irina and Hazel, who happened to be in Glenn's office. Meanwhile, Mason headed straight for the elevator.Hazel, Irina, and Beatrice gathered in the meeting room. Irina and Hazel seemed eager to hear what had brought Beatrice and Mason together to Glenn’s office.“Did you make up?” Irina asked.Beatrice nodded. “As friends, I think. I can’t just accept Mason’s feelings, I don’t know… I don’t want to force myself.”“Yes, of course, Mrs. Zimmerman. Even though you're his wife, you have the right to find your own happiness. If it’s better to be friends, then that’s what you should do. But if your feelings say otherwise...” Hazel began, but Irina interrupted her.“No! Don’t go back to him. I can’t imagine it. Just stay friends, Beatrice,” Irina said firmly.Beatrice chuckled. “Yes, I’ll just follow wherever our story leads.”“He cam

The foggy memories slowly became clearer as Mason stepped onto the porch of the house he had long abandoned. Dark thoughts crept into his mind—if he knocked on the door, would he be welcomed? Or would everything be different?Mason took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell of the seemingly deserted house.Several minutes passed, and Mason continued to stand there, waiting. Finally, the front door opened, and Beatrice appeared. Despite looking older, her face was bright. She had found her own peace.However, the arrival of Mason seemed to shatter that peace instantly.“Mason?” Beatrice looked at him in disbelief.“I’d like to talk to you, Bea. May I? That is, if you’re willing.”Beatrice’s eyes remained fixed on Mason’s pitiful figure. Whatever had happened, something terrible must have hit Mason hard. Was this something Beatrice should celebrate?Regardless of Mason’s current troubles, maybe he had fought with Eleanor and decided to come back home.Beatrice’s ego raged inside her. A
