The art exhibition continued as if nothing had happened, but Prince Rick Carusi's attitude towards Curtis had completely changed. He no longer saw him as a mere worker he could humiliate and treat like trash. Now, he treated him with great admiration and respect. He even seemed to ignore Beth and Agatha just to pay attention to Curtis Stanton.

"Good evening," Curtis said loudly in the center of the room to draw everyone's attention. "Today is a very special day. Today, the world will see the immense art collection that Joseph Stanton accumulated throughout his life. Please, enjoy."

"Bravo! ... bravo! ... you're a genius!" Prince Rick shouted as he clapped and whistled in the crudest and most common manner.

Agatha and Beth looked at each other in astonishment. They didn't understand what the hell had happened to the prince who arrived an hour ago.

Curtis returned to his family's side and the prince to enjoy the exhibition just like everyone else.

The prince quickly rushed to serve a co

    The next day, everything had returned to normal at the Stanton mansion. Beth walked in the shadows, waiting for a small opportunity to harm Curtis, while he sought ways to make everyone happy.Curtis enjoyed his morning in his private office accompanied by his good friend and lawyer, Lucius Garner. In addition to them, there was a small company that supposedly shouldn't be there, but for Curtis, it had become commonplace.Kim Ballmer was sitting on Curtis's lap while he discussed important matters with his lawyer."The company has started to experience some losses that are entirely new. Such a large deficit has never been seen in the Stanton companies," said Lucius.Lucius spoke facing Curtis, who was seated behind his desk, but he couldn't help but notice Kim Ballmer sitting on his lap, as if she were a child asking Santa Claus for a gift."It's impossible for there to be losses. I haven't changed anything in the parameters," said Curtis."To be honest... I would feel more comfortabl

    "I guess I don't have another option," said Curtis, placing his hands on the desk.Charles Ballmer arched his eyebrows and tilted his head slightly as he smiled, pointing the gun at Curtis.Curtis sighed and huffed loudly as he shook his head. He refused to accept it, but Charles left him no choice."I can give you another option... I can fill your head with lead right now, and that would be the end of our problem," threatened Charles with a passive-aggressive attitude."I prefer the other option," Curtis stood up and extended his hand to shake Charles Ballmer's hand."That's the Curtis I like," Charles Ballmer smiled and holstered his gun before shaking hands with his new partner."I guess I'll have to wait for you to make your first trip," said Curtis as he lowered his gaze to pick up his drink."Tonight.""What?!... Tonight?!" Curtis asked, very surprised."Yes... tonight. Is there a problem?""Ships need to be prepared at least a day in advance. There's a lot of paperwork to be do

    Charles Ballmer pulled out his gun and began hitting the container forcefully."Shut up!" Charles ordered authoritatively, his voice sounding very intimidating.The voices of the women inside the container immediately fell silent upon hearing Charles Ballmer's voice. It was quite obvious that they were very afraid of that monster.Curtis was horrified, but he had to continue pretending to be there. Charles Ballmer was a very dangerous guy, and the last thing Curtis wanted was for him to become suspicious."I guess we can proceed with the shipment now," Charles Ballmer said."Y-yes... of course," Curtis replied, stuttering.Curtis gave the order, and a huge crane began to lift the container onto the ship. The screams were agonizing and made Curtis's skin crawl.Still, Curtis stood there pretending to smile, barely managing to ignore those screams that sounded like a rock concert."I'm glad I didn't kill you that day Joseph defended you," Charles said suddenly as he watched the containe

    Curtis had spent the entire night with nightmares and strange sensations after what he had experienced the night before. So, he woke up the next day craving some peace and quiet.It was then that he decided to gather the whole family in the dining room during breakfast to make an important announcement.Beth, Ámbar, Kim, and all the Stanton siblings were waiting to eat while they had to wait for Curtis to arrive in the dining room as he had ordered."I'm hungry," exclaimed Ágata, looking at the empty plate in front of her."That idiot Curtis ordered that they wouldn't serve the food until he arrived," Beth explained, with her fingers intertwined in front of her mouth."That's stupid," said Cambell, exchanging a brief glance with his wife Kim."I support Curtis," said Kim, intending to embarrass her husband, "after all, he's the alpha male of this mansion."Beth couldn't help but laugh and let out a laugh that came out of her closed mouth."I have no doubt about that. You can learn a l

    The limousine driven by Baxter stopped right in front of the beach. The Stone pier awaited the Stanton family with an elegant yacht prepared especially for them."We're here!" Curtis exclaimed, being the first to step out of the limousine.Ander was the second to descend, and a special sparkle could be seen in his eyes. It was the first time in his life seeing a yacht."Wow!" Ander exclaimed, his mouth agape."Do you like it?" Curtis asked, placing his hand on Ander's shoulder."I thought these kinds of boats were only seen in movies," Ander smiled in amazement."Can't I just stay in the limousine?" Ágata asked irritably once she got out of the limousine. "It's too hot. At least the limousine has air conditioning.""Don't be boring, Ágata. We'll have a great time," Curtis insisted.Ágata shielded her eyes from the sunlight with her hands, her face reflecting little enthusiasm."I need a drink," Ágata said."It's the most luxurious yacht in the world. It has air conditioning, a liquor

    "You can do it, Curtis," Curtis said to himself to gather courage and board the yacht with a forced smile.Upon boarding, he found total boredom. Only Ander seemed to be enjoying the trip while the others wore expressionless faces.Ágata drank directly from a champagne bottle, and Campbell argued with Kim."Alright... I guess we can start the journey now," Curtis said.The yacht sailed away from the dock and quickly ventured into the sea as hours passed.Curtis tried to lift the mood on the boat, but no one seemed to share his enthusiasm."We can do something to entertain ourselves while we reach the island," Curtis proposed."No one wants to do anything with you, starving," Beth offended.Curtis rolled his eyes without paying much attention. It was already a habit for him to receive insults from Beth."What do you have in mind?" Carson asked."I'd like to do something recreational.""Dance?" Ágata asked while laughing."I don't know how to dance," Ámbar commented immediately."I love

    After the small incident between Beth and Ámbar, there was silence on the yacht for the rest of the trip. Everyone kept their distance and remained quiet after that near-death scare. Ámbar was literally on the brink of death. The only person laughing and seemingly enjoying the trip was precisely Beth, and the only person sticking close to her was precisely Charles Ballmer."You're truly wicked," Charles said as he laughed."That damn gold digger thinks she's so important just because she married Carson. That doesn't change the fact that she's poor," Beth responded, referring to Ámbar disdainfully, "she'll never be on our level."Beth pulled out a cigarette and placed it in her mouth with the intention of smoking it."I think we should have met a long time ago," Charles said as he lit Beth's cigarette with his pocket lighter.Meanwhile, outside the yacht, Carson and Curtis took care of Ámbar as she recovered from that dreadful scare.Ámbar sat in a chair while Carson rubbed her with

    "No, Kim. This is wrong," Curtis pushed Kim away with his hands, breaking the clandestine kiss.Kim arched her eyebrows and stared at Curtis intently."Come on... you know you want it," Kim insisted, running her hand over Curtis's groin, trying to provoke him."Please, I want you to leave," Curtis indicated.Curtis took Kim's hands and moved them away from his groin, but she kept insisting on touching him."Relax. Campbell is drunk," Kim kissed Curtis's neck and made an effort to get closer each time."I'm serious, Kim. I don't want any of this to happen again. It's not fair to Campbell," Curtis remarked.Finally, Kim understood that Curtis was serious, and that's when she became expressionless."You must be joking," Kim complained, clearly upset."Get out of here," Curtis said, looking her directly in the eyes."This has nothing to do with Campbell, does it?" Kim asked, feeling sad and rejected."Of course it does. He's the only victim in this situation," Curtis replied."Don't lie.

    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
