Exposed!One week had passed since the fight between Jeremy and Steve, and in that time, Steve had been relentless in his pursuit of revenge. He had sent numerous threats to the Williams family, promising that he would make them pay for Jeremy's supposed act of violence.Steve took legal action against Jeremy, filing a case for physical assault, escalating the conflict to a whole new level."Jeremy, what's this? I think you should just call Steve and apologize, please. We are already in a mess with Noah's family, we can't afford more chaoticness," Mr. Williams pleaded. Mrs. Williams, already the subject of ridicule among her peers due to Mrs. Peters' vindictive accounts of the incident, found herself in a confused position. The humiliation she had suffered from Mrs. Peters' lies had drained her of her usual assertiveness, and she was forced to approach Jeremy with a subdued, pleading tone."Jeremy, please, for the sake of peace, I beg you to help us," she pleaded, her voice quivering
Noah who couldn't meet the deadline the CEO of Blue Silver Entertainment company had gone to plead with Jefferson who had in turn pleaded with his boss. Noah was given a one-week ultimatum again and it was due today! Noah's efforts to raise the money had been futile, despite the extension of time granted by Jefferson. Desperate and out of options, he had resorted to selling off his family's properties for peanuts.As Noah arrived at the Williams mansion, he was a shell of his former self, the weight of his troubles dragging him down into a pit of despair. The Williams family members were stunned by the transformation; it was as if a different person had stepped into their home.Mrs. Williams, hoping her hospitality could soften Noah's heart, extended a warm greeting. "It's good to see you, Noah," she said, her smile betraying a hint of unease.Noah was unfazed by her attempts at peacemaking, his expression was hard and impassive. "I've come to pay back the money Jeremy obtained throu
A sudden calmness ran across the room as they all marveled at the sudden realization of Noah's act, he had perfectly waited for the right moment to grab Avery while Jeremy and Mrs Williams were having their non ending argument.Noah had carefully thought of his plan to take Avery captive, he had lost too much because of Jeremy, a a ndd his only consolation right now was having her all to himself. As he pressed tightly on Avery, Noah could feel her heart beating fast at the fright of the gun that he had placed on her head but he turned a blind eye."What are you doing?" Jeremy asked his voice hard and breathy as he finally found his composure, as the sound of Avery's cries made him angry and anxious.Jeremy knew Noah had always been an arrogant and greedy person, but he never thought Noah would go as far as using Avery as bait just to get his payback."I said no more words!" Noah shouted, his voice shrilled and hard as he took turns glancing cold looks at each of them. "You all think
Noah laughed a cackle that cut through the air like a blade. "You think I'm joking? If you're serious about saving Avery's life, return the master card," he sneered.Jeremy's gaze moved to Mrs. Williams, who still clutched the card like a vise. Even with her granddaughter's life hanging in the balance, she refused to give in.Avery's voice trembled as she pleaded, "Please, Grandma, just give him the card. It's not worth it."Mrs. Williams remained unmoved by Avery's heartfelt plea, the amount of the money too great to let go. "Don't be naïve, Avery," she snapped. "Do you think Noah will release you once he has the card? He'll still find a way to harm you. We can't lose both the money and your life." Her words sent shockwaves through the room.Jeremy, sickened by his mother-in-law's callousness, shot her a contemptuous glare. "This proves just how cold-hearted you truly are," he seethed. Turning to Noah, Jeremy continued, his voice taut with desperation. "Please don't harm Avery. Give
As days swung by, the scene with Noah at the Williams mansion slowly faded into a mirage as they continued in their daily lives but Jeremy could feel Avery was still having some aftermath as she would often go numb for a while and sometimes felt scared for no reason. This made Jeremy sometimes wish Avery had allowed him to shoot at Noah instead of letting him escape, but he had asked his men to search for Noah because he was determined to give him a taste of his wrath. As Jeremy sat down on the couch with so many thoughts dancing through his mind, he didn't realize when Avery entered the room. "Hey babe," Jeremy greeted but Avery didn't answer with her usual cheerful self, and this worried Jeremy. "I'll just put Mia to sleep," Avery said standing up not wanting to disturb her husband with her newfound moody countenance since her ordeal with Noah. Jeremy was about to reply to Avery when his phone rang, he had been expecting a call and was eager to answer, as he reached for the phon
With the rise of the news spreading about Noah, Jeremy felt a form of accomplishment in knowing that Noah got what he deserved, he had always been torn in Jeremy's flesh, especially with the way Avery's grandparents had always compared Noah to him making him feel like he had an edge over him with Avery.As they watched the news, a sly smile spread across Jeremy's face as he read out the headlines. Noah had been taken straight into the underground prison even without a prior court case. which was only possible because Jeremy had used his father's connection to get the order for Noah's imprisonment from the president himself making sure he had no way of escape and would be away for a very long time.Watching Avery's face, he could see that she wasn't free from the emotional trauma Noah had implanted in her, Jeremy watched Avery intimately as she looked at the picture of Noah displayed on the television with a mixture of fright and gladness."I am happy he is finally out of our lives for
Mrs. Celina's anger boiled over as she confronted Jeremy, her voice dripping with contempt. "How dare you try to humiliate us like this!" she exclaimed, her chest heaving with rage. "I won't stand for it. You deserve a beating for your insolence," she added, turning to her guard with a cold, commanding tone. "Hold him down and make sure he suffers."Steve, unable to contain his glee, finally someone strong enough to put Jeremy where rightfully belonged. "make sure to make his life a living Hell," Steve said with so much excitement as the men made their way to where Jeremy was. Despite the imposing figure of Mrs. Celina and her guard, Jeremy maintained an unshakeable confidence, a sly smile dancing across his face. After the incident with Noah, he had taken steps to ensure his and his family's safety, he had instructed Jefferson to provide them with discreet but diligent bodyguards who followed them about but from a distance, even Avery had no idea that she had someone assigned to h
Stepping out of the mall, a whirlwind of emotions swirling inside him, Jeremy reached for his phone and dialed a Jefferson number. "Hello, Jefferson," he said, his voice still tinged with the simmering anger he felt toward Steve and Mrs. Celina.At the other end of the line, Jefferson picked up the call with prompt professionalism. "Good day, Boss," he greeted, the respect in his voice evident even through the phone.With the full force of his rage still coursing through him, Jeremy didn't waste time with pleasantries. "It's time to bring Steve Peter down for good," he declared, his tone cold and unrelenting. "He crossed the line this time, and I want this to be the last time he ever does."On the other end of the line, Jefferson listened intently, his response a single, sharp acknowledgment. "As you wish, Boss," he stated, his voice unwavering. The call ended, and Jefferson set to work, determined to carry out his boss's orders.Jefferson couldn't get his mind off the embarrassing sc
