ANYA SMILED sadly, shaking her head as she looked at Ava in disbelief. “We never get along, to begin with, so I understand that you are thinking lowly of me like that. But… Seriously? Do you have the same thoughts about Dollie?”

Upon hearing those words, Ava’s mouth widened, realizing that Anya didn’t know how much she hated Dollie—her whole existence.

She felt alarmed at first, but as she thought that Dollie was already dead, maybe she could turn things around.

“I don’t know what your impression of Dollie is, but she isn’t as kind as you think,” Ava said, her voice low. “She’s manipulative, and will always get what she wants, no matter what the consequences will be. Dollie is that kind of girl, and I pity you because you also fell into her tra

    EARLIER at the engagement party, Damian purposely detached from the crowd to find Carson. He was successful at finding him, but he never thought that Carson would be in the garden alone, and it seemed like he was wandering about something.“Carson,” Damian called, and Carson immediately turned his face to him. “I need to ask you something.”“Don’t you know how to read the room? I’m here because I don’t want to talk with anyone else, and your presence will just bring the reporters here,” Carson replied, gritting his teeth. “If you are here to mock me, then do it next time. I’m not in the mood—”“Do you know something about the Red Snake Organization?” asked Damian, not letting Carson finish his sentence.

    AFTER THE wedding ceremony, it is now the time for the reception. The guests and the reporters were there, and all their attention was on Damian and Anya. Some guests wanted to congratulate the couple personally, but they couldn’t.No one can approach Damian and Anya since they are busy answering questions from the reporters.“They’re annoying. Really,” Ava, one of the guests, said while giving the couple a deadly glare. “The wedding of the century? Tch. No one even gave that title to me and Carson when we got married.”“It is because Carson isn’t the heir. Although he is a member of the Ferremento family, he is just an ordinary person like you,” Ethan, who was sitting beside her, told Ava. “That title could only be given with two powerful heirs.”

    EVERYONE gasped in shock upon hearing Carter’s question, including Penelope, who couldn’t help but cry as soon as Carter showed her the ring. “Of course! Yes!” Penelope exclaimed, her eyes twinkling with joy, as she leaned toward Carter and kissed him on the lip. “I will marry you right here, right now!” Carter chuckled, but the happiness was also evident in his eyes. “This is Damian and Anya’s wedding so we need to take it slow, baby,” he said, placing the ring on Penelope’s finger. “You are the best thing that happened to me.” “You are the best part of my life, too…” Penelope lightly lifted Carter, signaling him to stand up, and he obliged. “I love you so much.” “I love you too, Princess.” And as they shared a kiss in front of the crowd, the guests felt butterflies in their stomachs, while the reporters took pictures of them. It was another breaking news after the other, and they won’t let the opportunity go through them, so they also reported it live on the spot! On the other

    “SO, it turns out that Carson is the man Dollie was referring to in her previous story.” “Dollie told you something?” Damian looked at his wife intently, raising an eyebrow. “Yeah. It was a few days before her graduation.” Anya nodded. “She told me that she wanted to seek peace, and she wanted to stop herself from hurting.” “Did she say something else?” “She told me that someone broke her heart, but I didn’t bother asking who the man was.” Anya sighed as her hands clutched to the hem of her dress. “I wanted to respect her privacy, and I thought that she would share everything once she was ready.” Damian didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he stood up and went to the kitchen. He placed both hands on the table while breathing heavily. Anya couldn’t help but be worried about him, knowing how close Damian was to Dollie. So, she stood up and followed her husband to the kitchen. “Are you okay?” she asked, her tone laced with worry. “We can stop talking about this topic now.” “No. It

    “HI,” greeted Ava in a sultry tone as she folded her arms, emphasizing her cleavage more.The red dress she was wearing almost revealed her cleavage and smooth, silky legs. She didn’t even bother to wear stockings as she wanted Damian to see how beautiful and seductive she was.“It has been a while since we talked together. Just the two of us.” This time, Ava crossed her legs. She wasn’t wearing shorts either, so if Damian looked down, he would first see her red lace panty.However, Damian didn’t even bother to look down. He just stared at Ava nonchalantly as he spoke. “I’m not planning to talk to you longer, so I will get straight to the point. When was the last time you saw Dollie?”“Oh. About that? I don’t remember.” Ava’s gaze fixated on the ceiling while caressing her chin. She was telling the truth, anyway.“How about the conversations you had with her?” Damian asked again.“I also don’t remember.” She shrugged.Ava didn’t care about Dollie. The only reason why she is here is to

    AVA went home with a broken heart. Tears were streaming down her eyes, a sign of how hurt she was because of what Damian did to her earlier, yet her facial expression was fierce.Her forehead was creased, yet her heart felt like it was being shattered into pieces.“Good day, Ma’am Ava,” the maids greeted her in the second floor’s hallway when she arrived. However, Ava noticed the glances they gave at her revealing dress, causing her to be annoyed and humiliated at the same time.“Get out of my sight before I fire all of you,” Ava muttered, her tone dark and intimidating, yet the maids were too stunned to move. “Get out!”As Ava already shouted in frustration, every maid hurriedly went downstairs, leaving Ava alone in the hallway. Ava bit her lower lip as another batch of tears formed in her eyes.She wanted to burst into a rage, but she did her best to control her temper as she continued walking and went to their bedroom… Not knowing that Carson was inside, sitting on the couch, obvio

    MEANWHILE, Damian went home after his conversation with Ava. The whole meetup just tired him out, even though it only lasted for a few minutes.His frustration was visible on his face when Anya, sitting on the living room couch, noticed it.“Bad news?” Anya asked, looking away from the tablet in front of her to stare at her husband.“Bad news is an understatement for what happened today.” Damian sighed, removing his shoes, and placing them on the shoe rack before he sat beside Anya. “I can’t believe that Ava took this opportunity to seduce me.”“That bitch… Really…” Anya gasped, disappointed but not surprised. “Anyway, are you okay?”“What?” Damian blinked his eyes twice, not expecting that Anya would ask him that question.“Well, I know that Ava stresses you out.” Anya shrugged and turned her direction to Damian. She placed her hand toward Damian so he would look at her. “That’s why you look so stressed today, huh?”“You won’t even ask first if something happened to me and Ava?”“Why

    “YOU CAN’T think of anything to justify yourself, don’t you? Because what I’m saying is true,” Damian said, emphasizing every word. “You met Dollie, and you didn’t even tell anyone about it.”Carson looked away and stared at the wall. He couldn’t admit it or deny it, not to mention that he felt crumbling down again. Every time he was reminded about Dollie’s death, his heart shattered to pieces.“Wait, that’s a grave accusation huh! We don’t even know if that picture is edited or not!” Ava exclaimed, still trying to defend her husband despite the piece of evidence being thrown at her face.“Then we can ask an expert about this. Your choice,” said Damian in a casual tone, raising one picture in his hand. “But if we do that, you need to accept the consequences. You can’t throw tantrums at me like you always do.”“What the…” Ava scoffed and gave Damian a deadly glare. She felt humiliated, and she didn’t like it. “Why would Carson meet Dollie in secret, by the way? For her to seduce my husb

    Epilogue: The Last Retaliation

    THE hostage-taking Carter did in the warehouse spread in various news channels like wildfire. Everyone was shocked because of his sudden escape from prison, making the residents afraid for their safety, knowing that the management wasn’t doing their job properly to monitor the prisoners.With that, the warden and his apprentices, who were also under Carter’s authority, were fired from their jobs. They were replaced by a management who cared about their citizens, removing the patronage system in the prison, and bringing back justice at the same time.Due to Carter’s crimes being in high intensity, he was transferred to a high-security prison. Carter could only laugh as his mind was still in the past, thinking how rich and powerful he was, even though that wasn’t the case now.Carter had already gone insane, but it was only the beginning of his suffering.“At last, you finally arrived,” Catelyn, who was waiting in Carter’s cell, greeted. “Did you miss me?”“What are you doing here?” Cart

    Chapter 336: Let's End This Now

    THE lights were flickering, adding tension in the air, as Damian entered the warehouse alone. He doesn’t have any guns or other weapons with him, nor he didn’t call anyone like Carter instructed.Damian was on high alert as he continued walking when suddenly, two men wearing full black clothes started to approach him with their guns.‘Fuck,’ cursed Damian at the back of his mind, seeing how helpless he was right now.Especially after seeing Ava tied to the chair, his mouth gagged, while Catela is sleeping in the crib beside her.Despite the situation, he couldn’t give up. Damian needed to save himself along with Ava and Catela and end this fight with Carter so it wouldn’t repeat.The two men tied Damian’s hands and feet to the chair, but unlike Ava, they didn’t gag him.“It is so unusual to see how obedient you are. I never thought you could do it,” Carter, who appeared from the shadows, smirked upon seeing Damian being helpless. “That’s right. They will always be safe as long as you

    “That was not enough for all the bullshit you did to me before. But for now, let’s call it even," Damian said.Carson only shook his head as he wiped the blood on his lips before leaving the house. And the only thing that was running through his mind was how strong Damian’s punch was… before until now.THE NEXT morning, Carson didn’t just confess what he did to the board members, but he conducted a press conference to publicly apologize to Damian. He knew that Damian deserved to clear his name and regain his reputation, and although his public apology wasn’t enough, he still did it to show his sincerity.“Starting today, Carson Ferremento is now terminated as the CEO, and will face two years of suspension because of him ruining the Ferremento Corporation’s reputation,” Piper announced, her tone colder than usual. “The position will go back to Damian Giovanni Ferremento.”Carson smiled sadly, but he knew he needed to accept the consequences of his actions.However, since Damian had a

    “That bastard. He told you that even though you have a husband?” Carson asked, his teeth gritting.“Well, this is just an arranged marriage, and he knows it.” Ava shrugged. “To be honest, I would marry a man like him although he isn’t the richest, than stay with a puppet like you, who only knows how to follow someone else—”“Here,” Carson interjected, giving Ava the signed papers. “I will let you take Catela because I need to deal with something, but I will take her away from you once I'm done.”“Hah. As if I will let you do that.” Ava scoffed and rolled her eyes. “Thank you for this, Carson. Catela will benefit so much from this.”And as if Ava was waiting for this to happen, when she went again to their bedroom to take Catela, she already had her luggage with her and was talking to someone.“Yes, he already signed the divorce paper, and I’m all set…” Ava said, smiling from ear to ear. “Oh, your bodyguard is outside the house already? Alright. I will let him in.”Ignoring Carson, Ava

    After Carter went out of the house unnoticed, that was the only time Carson could breathe properly. He didn’t even realize he was suppressing his breath because of fear.‘Is that really the brother I used to be with ever since I was a child?’ Carson thought, his heart racing, as he leaned into a tree. ‘We are family. Why would he threaten me like that? Is the company and the organization more important to him than me?’And upon asking himself that question, Carson got his answer. Carter wouldn’t mind killing everyone who would be a hindrance to his plans, and he is not an exemption.His gaze went to the house—Something he had because of Carter. Everything he had was him, not giving Carson any chance to carve out his own identity. He was only known for his surname, and for all his careless actions when he was in teenager days.The only thing he had that wasn’t connected with Carter was Dollie, whom he took for granted, and now his family; Ava, his wife, and Catela, their child.“Ava,”

    Realizing that Damian needs him right now, Veron took his phone and called a number. It was someone he thought he would never talk with again.“Veron,” Charlie Wiles, the CEO of the Legion Mercenaries, called. “It has been a long time, huh? What do you need this time?”“I have to ask you for a favor,” Veron replied.“A favor?” Charlie raised an eyebrow. “If it is about our operations, I’m sorry, but I need to decline. You know that we can’t take clients in other countries other than Colossia, right?”“I know that. You are not taking me as a dumb person, aren’t you?” Veron shot back, his voice laced with irritation now. “I need someone I trust to do this task for me, and I’m willing to pay any amount you want for it.”“Any amount, huh? Talking to rich people is different.” Charlie chuckled on the other line, yet he became serious afterward. “But alright, deal. What is it that you want me to do?”“I want you to find Correl Ferremento’s location and kill him,” Veron commanded, his tone s

    “Carson,” Damian called as his eyes darkened in anger. “It is you, isn’t it?”“If you are asking about the new CEO of this company, yes. It’s me,” Carson answered, smirking, as he placed the documents he brought to the table. “Why? Are you surprised that a person who was once a happy-go-lucky like me would be chosen to replace you?”“Why would I be surprised if you planned everything for this to happen?” Damian shot back, the annoyance evident in his tone. “Seeing you in front of me now just strengthens my hunch. It was you who messed up with the data. How could you?”Carson’s smirk widened. He didn’t answer. Instead, he stood proudly in the middle with his arms folded.“I’m not here because of the shitty things you accuse me of, but because I have given the board of directors a proposal strategy that you can’t provide.” Carson slid the document in front of Damian. “Here. Look at this.”Damian didn’t move at first, but a few seconds later, he took the folder and looked at its contents

    “Young master,” James, whom Damian called, answered on the other line. “Young master Carson is still doing his old routine; working in his office the whole day and going home afterward.”“How certain are you?” Damian asked.James’ brows furrowed, but he still answered in a polite tone, “I’m always monitoring him, young master. I didn’t even let him out of my sight.”“I know, but something might have happened that slipped your notice,” Damian said, his tone low and serious. “The Ferremento Corporation is in chaos right now, and I’m sure Carson is involved with it. I need you to think carefully.”James obliged. The tip of his brows pressed harder on each other upon recalling the surveillance, and his lips widened as he remembered something.“There was one incident. A few days ago, Miss Ava Medivien bumped into me and caused a commotion. For a moment, I lost sight of young master Carson’s office,” confessed James. “But it was only for a few seconds.”“And that is the only amount of time t
