48 hours later.

At Apple club 12:26pm.

Sara stood by the side of the window, she had her cigarette in hand and slowly puffed it out.

It had been two days since the drama at the dining table happened, and since then, she still couldn't get herself together. She couldn't believe her Grandmother would be against her being the next CEO and not Jacob? If anything, she is the most capable candidate to take on Jacob!

She still can't wrap her head around the fact that her Grandmother was against her and not even Jacob!

Well, one thing Sara wasn't going to let happen is letting the position of CEO slip off her fingers. That was her birthright, and she doesn't care about making a pact with the devil to get it.

The next minute, a knock came at her door, and it slowly opened to reveal Ken.

"What is it?" She asked, almost as if she didn't want his company.

"Madam, he is back? He got nothing on the girl; we can't be certain she is his wife just yet!" He informed her.

Sara turned off her cigarette a

    Luca sat at his table with Blue next to him as she explained the surge in revenue of the hotel and its clubs in the last few months.The soft glow of the hotel's lobby lights cast a warm ambiance as Luca listened intently to Blue's presentation. She clicked a remote, and a graph displaying the hotel's revenue appeared on the screen behind her."As you can see, sir, our revenue has increased by 25% in the last quarter," Blue explained, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "And if we break it down further, we can see that the clubs have been a major contributor to this surge. I just know Lord Ercole would be so proud of the tactics you have used in his investments and brought up the revenue."Luca nodded thoughtfully, his eyes scanning the graph. "That's impressive, Blue. I'm glad we could make a change."Blue smiled, confident in her analysis. "Well, I think it's a combination of factors. Our marketing strategy has been on point, and we've seen a significant increase in foot traffic. Ad

    About twenty minutes later, Luca pulled up to his garage and parked his car. He quickly slammed the door and rushed inside the house. He met Milo and Karo outside with his security men.As Luca rushed into the house, Milo and Karo exchanged a concerned glance and trailed after him.The security men followed close behind, their eyes scanning the surroundings. The air was tense with anticipation. No one wanted to talk to him for the time being, each of them knowing he was angry. This was the first time anyone would be raiding his house, but the only question they could think of was, who was behind this?A few days ago, when Evelyn appeared unexpectedly, she had told him that they were on vacation and the children wanted to see him. Luca gave out his apartment to her, since it would be more comfortable for them than booking a hotel, but little did he know that Sara had already misinterpreted his kind gesture as his secret family!Inside, the house was a flurry of activity. Luca's staff s

    Once Vlad ended the call, Luca stood there in shock. He couldn't believe what Vlad had just said! That Sara was the one who was behind the raid last night - why would she do that to him, knowing fully well that it was her house?Luca closed his eyes slowly, trying to catch his breath and suppress his anger so he doesn't do something he will end up regretting. If there was something Sara knew how to do perfectly, it was getting under his skin.He took a deep breath and quickly changed into something more comfortable. It was time he let her know that he knew all of her tricks!When he was done dressing, he quickly drove his car out of the mansion and headed to the Apple Club.At the Apple Club, Sara stood in the hallway with Ken right next to her."Madam, you don't look all too well. Is everything alright?" he asked, concern etched across his face.Sara smiled. "I'm good, I'm just thinking about how Luca would take his house being raided. I just pray he sends that bitch away, or my next

    Sara's eyes widened when she saw the gun thrown on the table. She felt like the breath had been knocked out of her. Different questions were running through her mind: How did he get into her office? How did he know that she had a hidden gun in there? How did he know all of that?If anything, she wanted to scream for help, but she couldn't even find her voice, as it felt like a lump had formed in her throat. Her legs were both shaking uncontrollably. She hadn't seen Luca with such a stern face before, and all she could see in his mere presence was ruthlessness."Lu... Lu... Luca?" She finally found her voice, but it was still low. "What the hell are you doing here right now?""What do you mean?" Luca asked, maintaining a poker face. "I came by to see my wife! Is there any problem with that?"Sara's fists clenched tightly, and she gulped. "Look, Luca, how the hell did you get in here? I wouldn't want to ask you again, or I will...""Call your thugs?" Luca stood up from the chair, his fa

    Luca smiled. "Of course I am your precious husband. Who else will I be?"Sara shook her head. "No, no, that's not who you are. Look at those eyes, I know sinister when I see one, so don't try to deceive me."For a moment, Sara's legs stopped shaking. She felt a stab of annoyance that knotted her stomach. The fact that Luca knew about Leo and how he died didn't sit well with her one bit.She groaned. "Luca, you killed Leo? Did you kill him? Tell me what happened to him, please, I am begging."Luca nodded. He walked over to her little bar and poured himself a drink. "I think this is going to be a long conversation, baby.""And you think you'll leave here unharmed when you're done? I can hit the emergency buttons, and they'll all come in here and shoot you dead!" She had a poker face full of confidence as she spoke.But surprisingly, Luca was still unfazed."Look, Sara. Not even the Edward family can 'unalive' me if they wished to. Just as I walked in here unharmed, so will I leave unhar

    As Ken rushed inside, he was met with a sight that made his heart skip a beat. Sara was lying on the floor, her body shaking with fear and anger. He quickly rushed to her side, trying to help her up, but she snapped his hands off, her eyes blazing with fury."Y'all are so incompetent!" she spat, her voice venomous. "How in God's name did he get in here? How did he disable the emergency buttons? How did he get past security and all of you dullards? I fucking pay y'all for fucking nothing!" Ken took a step back, his hands raised in defense. "Ma'am, I don't know what happened. We had everything under control, I swear. What happened? Who are you talking about?" Sara's eyes narrowed, her face twisted in disgust. "Under control? Under control? You call this under control? He walked in here like he owned the place, and you didn't even notice! He was sitting on that chair when I came in here!" She sprang to her feet, her body trembling with rage. "I'm surrounded by idiots," she spat, her v

    Sara sat in her office. She was sitting on the couch in front of a scattered wad of cash. For the past six hours, she had been recounting all of her money to be sure those who broke into her office yesterday didn't leave with any of it. Her eyes were fixed on the cash as she piled it up together. Each one she piled up, she passed it down to Ken, who was using the counting machine to count the money.The door suddenly opened, and an ebony, tall, muscular man walked inside. He had an envelope with him as he walked in."Madam!" His deep voice rang out in the solitude of the place. "I have news for you," he announced.Sara didn't lose focus on the money she was counting. She asked, "What is it, Williams?"Williams walked forward and placed the file he was holding on top of the wad of scattered cash she was still counting."What is this, Williams?" She turned around and looked at him. "What is this all about?"His lips curled into a smile. "Why not you just check it out yourself? It's righ

    Back at the Edward family house, it was exactly 6:56 pm when Luca joined the ongoing dinner table in the dining room. Everyone was present, with Jacob and his mother inclusive. It was just one person missing that everyone was waiting for.A couple of minutes later, the door swung open and about three maids helped Madam Ivy to the dining table. One of the maids wrapped her hands around Madam Ivy's waist, and the other one had her hands over her shoulders as a wedge. They pulled the chair out and helped her to settle down into it. Meanwhile, as they helped her slowly to the chair, Luca, who had seen her current condition, couldn't help but stifle his laughter, but then it was too late, and his smirk caught everyone's attention except Grandpa, who had his head downwards.Once Sara noticed the smirk on his face, it flashed back into her memory... he has another family!
