At Melissa Stevens's home, Melissa Stevens is watching the news and is currently viewing the part where Eunice Stevens was signing the bidding contract.Tears well down her eyes slowly as she hears Lady Megan Stevens say that it was Eunice Stevens who made all of this possible.To make matters worse, she always hears the part where Eunice Stevens was gloating about being the one who made the bidding victory all happen."I should be the one standing there and signing that contract and not my stupid cousin, Eunice Stevens."Melissa Stevens muttered to herself as she watched the whole event on the television."Why is my grandmother this heartless and wicked to me and my mom?""Just why!"Melissa Stevens yelled as she stood up from the Sofa and turned off the television.As she turned immediately, her gaze landed on Mrs Sophia Stevens, her mom.Stopping in her tracks immediately, she asked, "How long have you been standing there?"Melissa Stevens' voice was laced with curiosity as she sta
"Mrs Sophia, don't worry, everything will be fixed…eventually."Max Xanderson said and patted Melissa Stevens on the shoulder slowly."Eventually!""Can you hear yourself, Max?!""Eventually, we need a plan and not the word eventually or luck!""We will be sitting ducks if we don't have a way to get the contract from Lady Megan Stevens."Mrs Sophia Stevens' voice was laced with anxiety."Mrs Sophia, I promise you, it will all turn out for good.""Melissa Stevens won that bidding contract and only she will be able to sign it.""Just relax and watch as things work out for our good."Max Xanderson's voice was laced with assurance and hope.Meanwhile, at the Stevens Fort, Eunice Stevens and her cousins are busy preparing to move to the mansion at Westbrook.The joy of yesternight's victory party was still in the air.Everyone was still talking about the event and how successful it was.The whole television channels and radio stations were talking about it all over Westerville and the whol
"Why are you even sweating like that?"Eunice Stevens immediately asked as she sensed a thick cloud closing in around them.She knew something wasn't right immediately the guard ran in and handed the envelope to Lady Megan Stevens.The servant only stared at her and dropped his head down in discouragement."I'm afraid it's bad news, Eunice."Lady Megan Stevens' voice was barely above whispers as she stared at the white paper in her hand, her metal walking stick fell to the ground, its clattering sound adding to the intensity of the moment."Lord George Lucas had just pulled out all of his venture capitalists and investors from the Stevens Global Group without informing me!""The Centurion bank is calling for us to pay back their loan in two days!""Eunice! This is really bad!""We are in so much trouble!"Lady Megan Stevens' voice was laced with a mixture of confusion and anxiety."What!""You are kidding, right?"Eunice Steven's voice cracked with disbelief as she stared at her grand
"Hello, you have reached the Lucas group hotline, how can we be of help to you?"Miss Alexis's voice was mellifluous. Her blue blouse was a cascade of shimmering silk, flowing gently as she leaned forward to answer the phone.Her dark hair was neatly pulled back into a low bun, a few loose strands framing her delicate features.Miss Alexis's glasses, with thin, silver frames, perched perfectly on her nose, adding an air of sophistication to her professional demeanour.She wore a subtle touch of makeup, just enough to highlight her sharp, intelligent eyes.Lady Megan Stevens immediately gave the information needed, and Miss Alexis passed the call to Lord George Lucas's desk immediately."Just hold on, Lord George Lucas will be in touch with you in a minute."Moments later, Lady Megan Stevens and Lord George Lucas are on the phone."Good day Lord George Lucas."Lady Megan Stevens' voice was laced with respect and caution."I hope this message finds you well.""I must express my concern
Chapter Seventy-five:"Lady Megan Stevens, all investors and investments of the Lucas Group are now being deployed out of your company, the Stevens Global Group, and pushed to Melissa Stevens.""Since you and your family decided to banish Melissa Stevens from the family, we had a meeting with the investors and venture capitalists, and they all decided to only put their money wherever Melissa Stevens goes."Lord George Lucas' voice was laced with authority and determination.The sun was shining brightly at the beachfront house, adding to the intensity of the moment.Lady Megan Stevens' jaw dropped in a mixture of confusion and anxiety. She immediately stared askance at Denise Stevens and Eunice Stevens.'How did this go against me all of a sudden?'Her thoughts raced vehemently as she stared at Eunice and Denise Stevens."Lady Megan Stevens, your decision to banish Melissa Stevens was the catalyst for this.""The board of trustees at the Lucas Group and supporting investors couldn't s
Lady Megan Stevens took a deep breath, trying to steady her nerves. "Lord George Lucas has decided to withdraw all investments from the Stevens Global Group and transfer them to Melissa." She explained, her voice trembling."And on top of that, he's suing the Stevens Global Group for five billion dollars for breach of contract."Lady Megan Stevens' voice was laced with fear and anxiety.Eunice Stevens and Denise Stevens exchanged bewildered glances. "But why? Why would he do this?" Eunice demanded, her voice rising with each word and dripping down with fear.Lady Megan Stevens stared at both Eunice Stevens and Denise Stevens before continuing. "It's because we banished Melissa Stevens and her mom from the Stevens family."Lady Megan Stevens's voice was heavy with regret. "The investors and venture capitalists believe in her vision, and they won't support us anymore because of how we treated her."Denise shook her head in disbelief. "This is unbelievable. How could everything fall ap
Eunice Stevens and Denise Stevens were already at the door when Lady Megan Stevens collapsed and fainted.Staring at the situation with fear, they both yelled out Lord and soon the family doctor, Doctor Raul, immediately tried to manage the issue but all to no avail, he immediately suggested that Lady Megan Stevens be moved to St. Johnson's hospital for further treatment. At St. Johnson Hospital, all the doctors were busy due to the large inflow of patients.In ward eleven on the seventh floor of the gigantic hospital complex, the beep of hospital instruments was heard loudly.Lady Megan Stevens lay on the bed as the doctors attended to her."Doctor, will she be okay?" Eunice Stevens asked as she dabbed her eyes slowly with the white handkerchief in her hand.If grandmother died now, they‘d have to pay back those huge compensation amounts. She didn't want her life to be ruined like this.The situation was intense and palpable.The doctor, a tall, distinguished man with a kind yet se
"I didn’t mean for things to spiral out of control."Lady Megan Stevens's voice was laced with remorse and regret for all her actions towards Melissa Stevens and her mom and even little Chloe Maxwell."Protect?" Gerald’s tone was incredulous."Mom, can you just hear yourself?!""You acted impulsively. You didn’t think about how this would affect everyone else.""We need Melissa Stevens and her mother on our side, and now you’ve driven a wedge between us.""How is that lady ever going to want to see our faces and help us out again, after all you have done to her, Max and Mrs Sophia?"Gerald Stevens was really infuriated by the whole thing and how it's all turning out against them so fast.Lady Megan Stevens tried to keep her composure but her voice was still trembling. "Gerald, please listen to me, I didn’t realize it would come to this.""I thought I was deciding the family’s best interest at the time I made my decision."Lady Megan Stevens's voice was laced with remorse as tears thr
