"You think you can just walk away from me, Stephen?" Etta said slowly, but her voice sent chills down his spine. He had put up with her manipulation and emotional abuse for far too long; it was time to leave.Stephen turned his back to her and reached for the doorknob, hoping to make a clean break. But as his hand closed around the metal, he realized the door was locked. Panic shot through him as he jiggled the knob, but it wouldn't budge.He spun around to face Etta, anger rising within him. "What did you do?" he demanded.Etta's expression was cold and unreadable. "I didn't do anything, Stephen. But I think it's time we had a little chat."The redhead woman in the sexy lace dress closed the distance between them. She reached out to touch Stephen's arm, but he flinched away from her, his eyes flashing with anger."Don't touch me," he spat, his voice low and dangerous.Etta didn't seem to notice his hostility. She just looked at him with a small smile on her lips, as if she was enjoyin
Etta's laughter echoed through the room, cutting through the tense silence like a knife. Her mischievous eyes sized up the security guards, taking note of their bulging muscles and stern expressions. For a moment, she considered making a break for it, but their challenge dared her to try."You guys are so funny! Going to the trouble of opening the door just to catch a woman like me! Aren't you embarrassed?" Etta taunted."It doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman. When you commit a crime, you must be arrested!" said the security guard standing in front.The guard's face hardened as he glared at Etta, and his voice boomed through the room like thunder. Despite the tension growing thicker, Etta remained unfazed."Give up quickly! We won't hurt you!" said the man in the beige suit, softening his tone."Give up?" Etta laughed. "Even if I do, I won't let you guys touch me!"As Etta considered her options, a mysterious smile grew on her face. She was backed into a corner, but she was alwa
Chapter 31Roy grabbed his cell phone and dialed the police. "Hello, this is Roy Potter, manager of the Magnificent Hotel. I am reporting a case of confinement, fraud, and harassment by a fashion designer named Etta Carson. I hope you will come here soon and apprehend the criminals." He then contacted the media crew to prove Stephen's threatening words."Soon, your career as a fashion designer will be destroyed because of a fraud case and sexual harassment!" the man in the beige suit smiled slyly.Etta stuttered in disbelief. Shouldn't she have framed Stephen by now so that she could leave at ease after receiving the fee?"You must be just trying to scare me!" snapped the red-haired woman."I am Roy Potter, manager of the Magnificent Hotel. I don't have time to joke around with a designer who is about to go bankrupt!" said Roy in a firm tone.Etta's next gaze fell on Stephen. The man looked very calm, even though a few moments ago he had appeared tense because of the photos on Etta's
After the police took Etta Carson, reporters flocked to Roy Potter and bombarded him with questions. In front of them, he declared, "Hotel Magnificent Emerald upholds the values that apply in this country. We will not allow even the slightest crime to occur in this hotel."Questions about the man in Etta Carson's room arose, the reporters were eager for the information. "According to the law in force in this country, every victim who is not a criminal is entitled to privacy protection from the state. Therefore, we cannot reveal the man in Etta Carson's room in public."Despite this, the journalists persisted in questioning Roy Potter. However, the man quickly left the lobby, and the security guards prevented the reporters from continuing to harass him with their inquiries.Meanwhile, Stephen rushed home to meet Fiona. Suddenly, his heart was restless, especially after he saw the photos on Etta's cellphone.He took a taxi to Geoff's family house. Upon arriving, he tried to go to his roo
"Who do you think you are that the media should broadcast your news throughout the country?" Billy said sarcastically. "What the hell are you talking about?""Billy's right!" Aiden and Bryson chimed in, and then they all laughed."Trash like you won't be cared for by anyone. In fact, your death would have no impact on this country. So what's the point of reporting your scandal on TV or the internet?" Billy laughed at Stephen again, thinking that Stephen's words were like those of a comedian meant to entertain the audience.Fiona's eyes were wet as she stared at Stephen, her heart undecided, but she wanted to hear what he had to say."I don't know why, I really hope what Stephen says is true," Fiona said to herself.As everyone laughed at Stephen, Fiona secretly checked the national news website on her phone. Her eyes widened in shock as she read the headline: "Fashion Designer Etta Carson Arrested for Harassing Model at Magnificent Emerald Hotel," featuring a red-haired woman in a sexy
As soon as Stephen suggested going to the Magnificent Emarlad Hotel, all faces froze. "That's a great idea, Stephen! We'll finally find out whether you're telling the truth or just talking nonsense!" exclaimed Fiona with enthusiasm.Aiden, Bryson, Billy, and Megan looked at each other, silently communicating their thoughts. This decision was crucial for them. If Stephen was indeed a fraudster, this was an opportunity for them to open Fiona's eyes and convince her to divorce him."Okay, I agree!" said Aiden, while the rest of Fiona's siblings nodded in agreement, including Megan."Before we head to the hotel, I want to make an agreement," Stephen's eyes flickered to Aiden."What's that?" Aiden furrowed his eyebrows."If I'm proven innocent, I want to take Fiona away from this house. However, if I'm proven guilty, I'm willing to leave Fiona forever," Stephen spoke without hesitation."Oh my God!" Fiona thought in surprise. She never expected something like this to get her out of the Geof
Stephen grinned, "You have made a pact with me. Are you going to renege on it?" Aiden said angrily, "Why do we have to fulfill our agreement with you? For us, Fiona's safety is the most important thing! To hell with the agreement you made!"Fiona felt embarrassed by Roy Potter's brothers' childish attitude. Being a debatable person, Fiona couldn't stay silent and allow the bickering to continue.Fiona said amidst the commotion, "Please, everyone calm down!"Billy's face filled with worry, he said, "How can we rest easy when you leave the house with a poor man like him? I can't imagine for a second that you have to live in lowly facilities and suffer!"As if the air had frozen, Roy Potter, who knew nothing about Stephen and Geoff's family matters, became tense as well.Roy said in amazement, "What the heck is going on? Isn't your need to clarify the Etta Carson scandal clear?" Aiden and Bryson feel embarrassed for having raised their voices in his presence."I apologize for the inconve
As Fiona sat beside Bryson, she listened intently to Roy Potter's words. Suddenly, his statement hit her like a bolt of lightning. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. It was so unbelievable that if she hadn't heard it straight from the man's mouth, she would have thought it was a joke.In shock, Fiona quickly rose and confronted Roy, her voice trembling with disbelief. "Are you kidding me?" she asked incredulously.Roy, wearing a beige suit and a professional smile, looked back at Fiona calmly. He could sense her disbelief, but he knew he had to be serious. "Of course not," he said firmly. "I'm not going to joke about big things."Fiona looked at Roy, trying to gauge his sincerity. His tone and expression were serious, and she knew that he wasn't joking.Stephen asked, "What do you think, Fiona? Do you want to live in the Magnificent Emerald penthouse with me?"When Stephen asked Fiona if she wanted to live in the Magnificent Emerald penthouse with him, her heart skipped a beat.
