"Proof…! And you? You can't have any proof! There isn't any… you can't have any proof, because there isn't any proof against me."Mariella lashed out once again, revealing her evil smirk. With time, as her smile faded, the fear became completely evident on her face; as there were not just shades of deep gray that were lurking on her forehead.Rather, the signs of her getting panicked with every passing second were also marking their presence on her face.Till this point, she had been speaking everything freely and narrating the entire story with this confidence, because she knew that there was nothing that could prove the felony committed by her in the past.So, what was the harm in telling them the truth and letting some weight off her chest? This is why, even if she would tell all the truth to Cassie, even then, there was nothing that could go wrong for her.After all, the court would not accept their statement without any evidence or unless she repeated this very same story in fr
Mark smiled after looking at Cassie, as he really was not ready for this reply from her side. But now that he had really got the green flag from her, all he had to do was to go and make the required arrangements and announce the changes.This was when Cassie spoke again;"Mark, do you mind if I join you there? I want to support you …but if you don't want me to do that, then also I can understand everything -""Shut up! What are you thinking silly! Just get ready, as we might have to hurry."Mark interrupted her and she smiled while adding. "Just give me five minutes." After a total of ten minutes, they were on their way to the company's headquarters. The afternoon sunlight was touching the city at its peak, when Mark held Cassie's hand in his own. It took almost a total of fifteen minutes of driving for them to reach the office for both of them and as they stepped into the hushed corridors, preparing to confront those who had orchestrated this grand deception.The atmosphere in t
Cynthia's words made Robert little calm, as he asked;"What do you mean by you are joining us again…I mean where have you been …like you just disappear out of nowhere-""Ohh that, actually I got an offer from a really company in my hometown, so I had already moved there, it's just that I got a notice to submit all the reports of my past quarters on an urgent basis, so I have to return.In any case I am not here for so long-""Oh, that's so nice to hear."Sylvia jumped in the conversation as she was finally able to get the sigh of relief, but then only she realized that he statement might have sounded little wrong and she quickly mended it;"It's nice to hear that you are here today, after all you didn't even give us a chance to say farewell and bid goodbye.""It's okay Sylvia, probably you will get that chance today.. but right now we should leave for conference room or else we are going to be late.""Yes, you are right."Robert spoke as she took two steps forward in confidence that n
The mouths of everyone who was speaking in their favor after being swayed by Robert's words, had been shut successfully."And here are the statements from both Mr Caldwell and Miss Hayes' offshore accounts."Of course, Mr Holmes is already serving his time in prison, so his account statements could not be obtained, but I'm sure the doubts in your hearts must have been quelled by now. Please go through the files in front of you to witness a more systematic breakdown of their embezzling schemes, and let me know if you have any questions."Sylvia was almost at the verge of fainting and Robert suddenly started to yell loudly;"Mr Rover, please! Please give me one chance to prove my loyalty to you! I will be returning the entire sum I had taken. I was aware of how corrupt the previous management was, and that's why I also wanted to get some benefits, but I know you are completely honest, and I will never dare to miscalculate a single penny. Please… I'm really sorry-""As far as your loya
By now, Maxwell's horror at Anthony's sudden reappearance had abated to some extent, and instead was replaced by indignance."What kind of revenge are you speaking of? I helped you out of my goodwill, when you had no other options -""And left me to die once again!" "Watch your tone!" Matthew interjected, as he asked;"And what the hell is that supposed to mean, my father has always tried his best to support you in any way possible.He even forgave your debt when your company went bankrupt, even though his investment sank along with it. He has always wished his best-""And what the hell am I going to do with your good wishes? Sell them for a few pennies! Don't you dare talk to me like your family did me a huge favour, when all you did was abandon me in the hour of need."Anthony clenched his teeth and continued;"Since then, I have been dreaming of having the same power over you as you did over me, dreaming of the day when you will beg me the same way I begged you.And oh! I have rea
Four imposing bodyguards clad in sleek black attire stood in a disciplined formation outside Mark's villa in Clovelly.Their unwavering gazes were scanning the surroundings with the precision of a hawk. Each of the men exuded an air of silent strength, with their well-built frames and their formidable capabilities. Dark sunglasses shielded their eyes, veiling the intensity that lurked beneath. They were wearing tailored black suist, and earpieces they wore sparked a sense of seamless communication, creating an invisible shield around their charge. As guardians of security, they remained vigilant, prepared for any potential threat and along with that, three bulletproof cars adorned the entrance of the building. These vehicles stood as silent sentinels, as the tinted windows could conceal the occupants within, adding an aura of mystery to their presence.As they remained stoic and poised, ready to spring into action at a moment's notice, ensuring that safety prevailed in the shado
The harsh clang of iron bars echoed through the dimly lit corridor as Mariella, in a bright orange prison uniform, was escorted to her designated cell. She had been brought straight to a high- security prison cell due to her direct confession that had been recorded by Violet. Even though her living conditions had deteriorated overnight, Mariella maintained her silence.No matter how shameless she was in the privacy of her home, she had a reputation to maintain in the outside world- at least until the news of her black deeds was leaked. As she walked past the cells, Moira and Andrew, who were in adjacent cells, caught sight of Mariella. They were completely shocked at first, as they rushed to the gates of their cells; and their shock turned into disbelief as they exchanged puzzled glances. Moira's eyes widened as she muttered to Andrew;"Is that... Grandma? In a prison uniform?"Andrew nodded in confirmation with a sadistic smirk on his face;"I swear to hell and back, it is defini
Anthony could never possibly be prepared for the fact that Mark will ever be able to make it to the meeting.After all, his entire plan for exposing Mariella was just because he wanted to keep Marcus busy with the problems related to his in-laws and his wife.After all, all he wanted was to keep him as distant from the family business as he could, and that's why he had asked Nina to send Connor to deliver those papers to Mark's office.He had also done so, according to Nina, because she was the one who was in direct contact with Connor.Then how was it possible, that he was present there after leaving his only wife alone with her grandmother, after she was still trying to hurt her because of his grandson?He knew it has already cost him a fortune to extract the exact part of their conversation where she was confessing about the fact that she woild never step back from her attempts to create a misunderstanding between the married couple.Also he has made sure to make two more copies a
