Beth had woken up with a strong headache after spending the whole night having nightmares about Curtis following what she had experienced the day before. She dragged her feet on the carpet, and her body felt twice as heavy as usual. Placing her hand on her hip, she made small gestures of pain. She needed to have some tea or coffee to try to relieve the migraine that was ruining her life.

She peeked out the door hoping to see some of her employees to order them to prepare something for her immediately, but that hallway was completely deserted. "Where are these parasites when you need them?" Beth complained as she peeked out the door. It was very strange not to see any of them. It was very early in the morning, and they were supposed to be fixing the rooms and preparing breakfast.

"Damn it," Beth realized she had to walk to the kitchen to be attended to, and that annoyed her a lot. A pink velvet robe was the only thing covering her body and the bad mood of having to walk so far to be at

    That same afternoon, the main gate of the Stanton mansion slowly opened, and once open, very luxurious limousines began to enter one after another.Within seconds, there was a whole collection of marvelous vehicles surrounding the entire entrance of that gigantic property."What now?" Curtis wondered, hearing all the commotion, and rushed out to see what was going on.Beth and her children also went out into the garden to see what was happening and why all those cars had entered in that manner.The first limousine opened its door, and from it emerged a very well-dressed man who walked slowly to the other door and opened it with much respect.Charles Ballmer peered out and began to descend from the limousine, making a grand entrance, just as he loved.Beth was glad to see him. Finally, a familiar face. Someone with prestige and on the same level as her, she thought."Welcome!" said Beth with outstretched arms to hug Charles and with her lips ready to give him a welcoming kiss.But Char

    "I can't believe Alfred also took the day off that Curtis gave to all the employees... damn traitor!" complained Beth in the kitchen, accompanied by Baxter.She stood in front of an electric coffee maker trying to brew some coffee for herself that afternoon when they were forced to fend for themselves."He was the first one out that door," reported Baxter, seated in a chair."Damn contraption," Beth cursed as she couldn't get it to work."I think you're supposed to put the water in first and then press that red button," Baxter indicated with his finger without getting up from the chair.Beth turned to glare at him with a look of anger on her face."Why don't you come and do it yourself if you know how?" Beth complained angrily.Baxter settled into his chair and assumed a much more comfortable posture. "No, not at all. I'm also on my day off."Baxter placed his hands behind his head and sighed to express his state of utter relaxation."You're another damn traitor," Beth said disappoint

    Baxter went to bed after a very relaxing day at the wonderful pool of the Stanton mansion, taking advantage of that day off that Curtis had given to all the mansion employees.He fell like a rock onto his pillow, and within seconds, he was fast asleep. He needed rest to be ready to face the next day. His future within the mansion was uncertain now that Curtis was the new boss.Baxter began to have a very strange dream in which he couldn't move, no matter how hard he tried. Perhaps it was the phenomenon called 'sleep paralysis,' but this was much more vivid.He was even sure that he was still awake and could open his eyes. So he did, only to find Beth's face terrorizing him.Beth was sitting beside the bed, smoking a cigarette, exhaling smoke from her lungs, and smiling as she watched him, as if she were watching over his sleep.Baxter was terrified, and immediately he began to struggle with his body to move and get out of bed, but it was useless. His body was completely paralyzed, and

    Amber's whim with Carson lasted just over two minutes. After that, he got off her and simply focused on getting dressed in silence.Amber was very sad about what she had done. She let her momentary madness lead her to make a serious mistake.It was very difficult for her to keep a fake smile on her face while Carson dressed. He also laughed uncomfortably, and she just dressed as quickly as she could and then almost ran out of the room.Halfway down the hallway, she collapsed, fell to the floor, and with her back against the wall, she began to cry inconsolably.Curtis was also having a hard time sitting on the edge of his bed while rubbing his face with his hands.His muscular, perfectly defined body marked with tattoos was something new for Kim. She remembered the weak Curtis she humiliated years ago. Nothing like this stud who was in the room with her."Love, come back to bed," Kim said as she hugged Curtis from behind."How much money do you want to leave my room right now?" Curtis

    Curtis, for the first time, felt the pressure that came with being someone so powerful and understood that from that moment on, all his decisions would bring consequences.He increasingly understood Joseph and why he had such an indifferent attitude towards life.It was night, and Curtis Stanton waited in his private office, gazing out the window. In his right hand, a glass of wine, and in his left, the cane that was a symbol of Joseph.He thought about what had happened the night before and wondered why he didn't feel remorse even though he felt ashamed to look Cambell in the face.No matter how much he tried to pretend, Curtis could only think about Kim's naked body jumping on his, and deep down, he knew he enjoyed it as much as she did.Someone knocked on the door and immediately broke his concentration."Come in," Curtis said without turning away from the window."Dinner is ready, Mr. Curtis," said Alfred, with a firm attitude, like a seasoned service expert."Thank you, Alfred.

    Beth looked in both directions hoping to find empathy from one of her children, but they didn't look at her. They all looked at Curtis with great respect.Beth slammed the table with great force using the palms of her hands and then reluctantly stood up.She felt humiliated and underestimated, but at that moment she couldn't do anything. Curtis was in charge, and she had to obey."Oh, what a lovely touch," Curtis said sarcastically, placing his hand on his chest to mock Beth a little."Goodnight Curtis," Carson said angrily but respectfully."Goodnight, Curtis," Campbell looked down and didn't meet Curtis's gaze out of embarrassment."Goodnight, Curtis," Ágata seemed indifferent. Apparently, she didn't care."Goodnight, Curtis," Ander said, seemingly the only one on Curtis's side despite their previous fights."Goodnight, Curtis," Kim Ballmer used a seductive tone and a flirtatious look while laughing mischievously behind Campbell's shoulder.Her husband looked at her sternly, as if d

    Curtis slowly raised his head to return to dinner without anyone noticing he was very nervous. He couldn't believe that Kim Ballmer would do such things in the middle of a family dinner, and even worse, next to her husband.Kim winked and smiled flirtatiously at Curtis.No one had noticed until Amber noticed the way Kim looked at Curtis. There, she understood that what she saw in the room was not a mere coincidence.Amber suddenly took Carson's hand, instantly drawing Curtis's attention. In a matter of seconds, she had stolen Curtis's attention from Kim with such a simple action.Curtis watched Amber take Carson's hand and couldn't hide his jealousy. He hated seeing her with that jerk."Did you try the fruit salad, honey?" Amber asked Carson sweetly, just to provoke jealousy in Curtis.Amber caressed Carson's hand and discreetly looked at Curtis to make sure he was watching."No..." Carson responded skeptically. He didn't understand why Amber was behaving this way when it was clear th

    Carson began the day by dressing very elegantly in an expensive suit he had bought specifically for this important day.The haute couture of his suit was a masterpiece and made him look like a millionaire magnate.He walked to the mansion's parking lot and had to choose one of the limousines where he would be transported to the building where the Stanton family company was located.There were limousines and cars of all colors. One more brilliant and fabulous than the previous one. Carson had a serious problem deciding where to arrive at that important meeting with the owners of Valestown.Valestown was a land located in a magnificent place to build the largest shopping center in the country.

    Campbell watched with concern the news of his mother's arrest on his cell phone as he prepared for the flight where he would escape with Dany.Dany noticed Campbell's demeanor and immediately took his hand to comfort him."We can't look back," Dany said, "I know just the thing to cheer you up."Dany went to the airplane minibar and grabbed a bottle of champagne, perfectly chilled. Without hesitation, she uncorked it in front of Campbell, letting the bubbly foam cascade everywhere, soaking the red carpet beneath their feet.It was all laughter, hugs, and kisses until a voice amplified by a megaphone wiped the smiles off their faces instantly."Campbell Stanton, step out of the plane with your hands on your head," the police chief's voice echoed through the megaphone.Campbell and Dany peered out the window to see an entire army of international special police agents on the runway, aiming their firearms directly at the plane.Curtis returned to the Stanton mansion safe and sound, as he

    Charles Ballmer laughed maniacally. He couldn't believe that he had finally ended the life of the wretched Curtis Stanton. He had always known he would kill him since the day Curtis had used him as a stool alongside Araña years ago.His escorts also laughed, pleased to see that their boss had finally gotten what he wanted. However, things changed in an instant. A shot came out of nowhere, hitting one of the escorts directly in the forehead, killing him immediately. Another shot hit the leg of another escort, and that's when everyone finally reacted, starting to shoot in all directions without knowing where the shots were coming from.Charles Ballmer crouched down and quickly sought shelter from the gunfire while continuing to give orders."Shoot! Shoot at anything that moves!" Charles shouted, hiding behind one of the containers.Curtis was also crawling on the floor, completely unharmed by the shots Charles Ballmer had just fired at him.Immediately, the dock was filled with internat

    The limousine slowly came to a stop in front of the Stanton mansion, and Agatha looked through the window while accompanied by Angeline."Welcome to your true home," said Agatha as the gigantic gate opened to allow the limousine to pass.Both were personally greeted by Curtis.Agatha quickly got out of the limousine and ran to hug Curtis."What the hell are you doing here? I told you to stay on the island and take care of Angeline," Curtis reprimanded."He came back, Curtis. He managed to find me," Agatha confessed, terrified, with a look of fear in her eyes."That's impossible!" Curtis exclaimed."I know, I know. But he did it. He reached the hotel and chased me up the stairs. He said Angeline was his daughter and that he had the right to know her," Agatha said, unable to stop crying."You are safe now," Curtis comforted her with a kiss on the forehead."Daddy!" Angeline exclaimed, hugging her father's leg while Alfred carried Agatha's suitcases."Hello, my love," Curtis greeted with

    “Curtis?” said Beth, peeking onto the balcony, “I finally found you. I've been searching all over the mansion for you.”“I was reminiscing about the view from this magnificent balcony,” Curtis replied.“Remembering old times, I imagine.”“Exactly in this spot, I stood the day Baxter went crazy and killed Lucius for no reason,” commented Curtis, fully aware that Beth was the culprit. However, he never pointed the finger at her directly.Beth immediately understood the accusatory remark and simply smiled to keep up the pretense.“It’s a real shame that such a beautiful place brings such bitter memories to your mind,” Beth responded.“No, not at all. It’s the perfect occasion to remember the inexplicable things that only happen in the Stanton mansion. Ander died and no one knows a thing about what happened. It’s exactly the same with Lucius and Baxter,” Curtis remarked sarcastically. “These elegant walls hold mysteries that the world has no clue about.”Beth only responded with a feigned

    Agatha couldn't believe it. That man had found her and surely wanted to harm her and her young daughter. She could expect anything from Prince Rick at that moment. It was impossible to trust someone who had abandoned her and stolen all her money."Let's go, Angeline. We need to go back," Agatha said, terrified, taking her young daughter by the arm to return to the elevator."Agatha!" Prince Rick shouted, rising from his seat when he saw that Agatha wanted to flee from him.However, the elevator had already closed again and was on the upper floors. No matter how many times Agatha pressed the buttons, the door simply wouldn't open.Agatha watched with concern as Rick quickly crossed the entire lobby to reach where she was."Let's go through the stairs," Agatha said, picking up her young daughter and carrying her to move much faster.She was forced to walk a bit further to her right to enter the door leading to the hotel's stairs. She tried to move as quickly as possible without drawing

    The next day, all the media outlets were abuzz with a story that went global in a matter of minutes.Ander Stanton, the youngest member of the powerful Stanton family, had been found completely charred inside the remains of a limousine that had been intentionally set on fire. He was found alongside a girl, also charred, who, for some strange reason, had a chain tied around her neck.This news plunged the Stanton family into mourning and called into question the performance of the city's police authorities. The citizens were alarmed. If something like this could happen to someone as important as Ander Stanton, what could an ordinary citizen expect?"That's common in this city. People are murdered like that every day. It's just that now it's someone rich, and that makes the difference," said an old woman being interviewed on television while Charles Ballmer and Beth Aldress watched.They were both completely naked and sitting in a hot tub. Charles was enjoying a cigar while Beth just re

    Ander lost all the harshness in his voice and his bravery vanished as if by magic. Now he was just a scared and cowardly child, trembling like jelly in front of what seemed like a ghost from the past."Annie..." Ander sobbed, a mix of lament and high-pitched cry.He began to sweat profusely, and tears streamed down his face like waterfalls as he remained in disbelief. He couldn't believe what his eyes were seeing.Annie was there, staring at him face to face. However, she seemed unresponsive. Somehow, Charles Ballmer had managed to destroy her feelings and emotions. Everything that Annie once was had been erased from her mind forever. Now she was just a kind of pet that only served to wag her tail when her master, Charles Ballmer, came home tired from work."What did that bastard do to you?" Ander said, crying like a child.He took the chain that bound Annie's neck and noticed it was made of very resistant material. Perhaps that was why she had never managed to escape. Or maybe Charle

    Ander woke up again in the middle of the night due to a horrible recurring nightmare that he had over and over again. Annie's face and voice tormented him during his dreams, preventing him from resting. Since it happened, Ander hadn't been able to sleep peacefully on any of the following nights."You're a damn coward," he told himself to gather the courage to go on with his life.His idea was to convince himself that he had chosen well by showing loyalty to Charles Ballmer. After all, Annie had brought that horrible end upon herself. However, the nightmares and the bitter taste in his mouth didn't go away with anything. Maybe it was something he had to learn to live with.The next day, everything returned to normal at the Stanton mansion. Beth walked proudly around the mansion, not missing any opportunity to rub her triumph in Curtis' face.However, Curtis was locked in his room with no desire to come out. He just stared out the window while everyone else enjoyed the pool. Maybe they

    "Congratulations," said Campbell innocently."I think you should be grateful he didn’t get your wife pregnant, idiot," Beth snapped angrily, while Campbell felt ashamed."My personal life with my wife is none of the business of anyone present," Curtis commented immediately, although, to be honest, he was still in shock."You’re right. We don’t care about the child of a bastard and a traitor," Beth said venomously, not caring that she was talking about her own grandchild."He will own everything you see," Curtis defended himself with a sharp comment."That reminds me," Beth stood up and began walking around the office, "the new company directors have been talking, and...""And what?" Curtis questioned."And we’re thinking of kicking you out of the business," Carson immediately attacked.Curtis smiled, letting out a bit of air in a half-laugh."That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard," Curtis said, smiling."We want to remove you from your duties as president of Stanton Enterpr
