A MAN WEARING a white suit and a red ribbon tie— a sign that he’s one of the managers at the Rosehouse— appeared in front of Bruce. He had a neutral look on his face, but his eyes had a judging look at it. Samantha sighed in relief as Bruce suddenly went back to his senses, and placed his hand on his lover’s cheeks, caressing it like it was really his plan from the start.  She flinched because of the sudden contact, but Bruce glared at him for a second, immediately making her go back to her senses. “Why?! The Sandoval family took part in this! Why would I need to leave?!” Bruce blurted out as his gaze went back to the man, grimacing in dismay. He couldn’t accept the fac

AUGUST BLINKED his eyes twice. Disbelief consumed him when he heard Sapphire’s sentence.“Revenge?” August repeated as he tilted his head in confusion. “For who?”He stared at her more than usual, and Sapphire could feel the intensity of his gaze like he was waiting for more explanation.However, Sapphire didn’t speak after that. She just endured August’s intense stares as she lets the silence speak for her. She wasn’t ready to speak about it now, especially since it still hurts every time she remembers it.It didn’t take them a while until they reached the Remington mansion.“We’re here,” said Raquel as he parked the car in front of the mansion so they wouldn’t need to walk.As Nicollo got out of the car, Raquel drove again to park the car in the garage. He opened the door on Sapphire’s side first to accompany them outside.Sapphire went out first, and just when Nicollo closed the door to walk onto August’s side, she spoke.“I’ll go first,” said Sapphire in a cold, authoritative tone

“WHAT, MAN?” asked Harvey as he raised his eyebrow. “What mess?” Harvey, who was in a steamy session with the two girls he called onto a motel room, sat on the couch, naked. He commanded his whores to stop pleasuring him for a while as he wanted to give his full attention to what Bruce was going to say. ‘Bruce sounded serious,’ said Harvey at the back of his mind. ‘This is odd,’ he added as he chuckled lightly. “Aren’t you aware of the news?” Bruce asked on the other line— Confusion was evident on it. “If I do, would I ask you?” Harvey snorted as he looked and groaned at his fully erected member. Bruce just interrupted him from pounding those girls until they only moan for his name anymore. “The only mess I am in is with my lust— Oh shit.” Harvey has filled again with his dirty, naughty thoughts when Michelle— the host of the annual party earlier— kneeled in front of him and licked the tip of his cock, making him groan. Before his mind would get cluttered with his dirty thoughts

MEANWHILE, at the Wellington’s mansion, Francis and Benjamin Anderson, the eldest son of the Anderson Corporation, and would also be the next-in-line heir, sat on the couch as they held their beer mugs, sipping on it from time to time.They were having the time of their lives at Francis’ mini-bar, which serves as a place where they could be wasted altogether, and at the same time, a meeting place where they talk about their wicked plans and harsh gossip.“I should have been there, man!” Benjamin, who was still sober yet acted like he was drunk already, leaned on the couch as he grimaced. “I can’t believe I missed that remarkable moment at the party. Tch.”Benjamin grunted. No matter how many times he watched the CCTV camera where Bruce’s havoc could be seen, he knew that it would give him a different feeling if only he was watching the scene personally.“Stop complaining already. It’s done.” Francis shook his head and drank the remaining beer in his mug.It seems like the beer doesn’t

AS JAKE heard what Bruce had said, his remaining patience was pushed to its limits. He pulled Bruce in the collar, nearer than before, as he gritted his teeth. He wanted to punch his son until he understood what was happening and came back to his senses.“You imbecile, little man…” said Jake in a disappointed and low tone as his gaze turned onto the two bodyguards still holding him. “Bring him to my other room.”“Jake!”Nicole grunted as she was about to approach Jake so she could try persuading him, but when Jake gave her his intense, deadly look, she stopped moving. Her feet felt like it was frozen to the floor.“He’s our son…” Nicole reminded him in a weak tone, almost whispering. “I don’t know what you’ll do to him, but he’s our only son!”Jake didn’t speak. Nor the coldness in his eyes changed despite what she said.The bodyguards started to pull Bruce, who didn’t fight back anymore, to the second floor. His forehead was sweating, the same as his palms. He knew what might happ

THE MOMENT Bruce went out of the room with Trance supporting him, Nicole suddenly stood up as she was waiting for her son. She didn’t even pay attention to Jake earlier, even if he told her to come with him.In response, Jake even kicked on the wall as he walked towards his office with his hands clenched in irritation.Samantha was with Nicole as she couldn’t help but worry about Bruce. Nicole tried to push her away earlier, but she didn’t even budge. She believes that it’s her right to worry as she was Bruce’s future wife.“Bruce!” called Nicole with worry. That emotion also became evident on her face as she stared at her son, looking pitiful and weak. Nicole immediately went to Bruce, and the first thing she noticed was the sweat covering his whole body, and it even soaked the suit he was wearing.Her gaze flickered from different parts of Bruce’s body, and sighed in relief as she noticed that there were no wounds on his body, but he was trembling so badly. She could feel it as Bru

“ARE YOU ready, August?” asked Sapphire as she was standing in front of the large vertical mirror. Staring at her reflection, she adored herself, wore a red shirt with a white button in the middle, and a red pencil skirt, partnered with red stilettos that always make a sound every time she walked. “I am,” August answered as he wore a simple black shirt with long sleeves, and pants partnered with black leather shoes. “I prepared myself so I would not disappoint father.” “As you should,” answered Sapphire as she let out a chuckle. Unlike Sapphire, who was already known by everyone as a part of the Remington family, August couldn’t wear an expensive suit as it would definitely blow his cover. No one would believe that he already became instant rich just by working for the Remington Corporation, anyway. After Charles scolded him before as he immediately knew that it was August on the video, Charles had him grounded in the house. He learned everything about the Remington Corporation in

“SIR.” August, as soon as he got back to his senses, immediately stood up and extended his hand to the old man. “It was nice to meet you here.”The man in front of him was no other than Jake Sandoval— Someone he didn’t expect to meet, especially to approach him, in his lifetime.He was wearing a black business suit, making August have the conclusion that he had just come out from a business meeting.“I can say the same thing,” said Jake as he took August’s hand, and shook their hands together.August smiled, but lightly grimaced as he felt a sudden pain on his hand when Jake gripped it tighter than usual like he was trying to intimidate him at this moment.At this point, he was glad that Jake had the same aura as Charles, so he wasn’t that nervous.Or at least, it doesn’t show for now.“Can I sit here?” Jake asked again as he pointed at the vacant seat in front of August. “I also wanted to ask you about something.”Jake’s voice wasn't that loud, but his words thundered onto August’s h

AS AUGUST went back to the Remington Corporation, specifically to the CEO's office where he works, he couldn't help but feel the rapid heartbeat in his chest. It was insane, and he didn’t think it would stop for a while now.He breathed heavily as both his hands landed on the table, while his head was directed downward. Dealing with Jake Sandoval was no joke. With that fierce look in his eyes during his departure, August knew that this would not be the end of everything.Rather, it's a start of a bigger mess he didn’t sign up for.“Fuck. Where did I get the guts to do that?” August asked himself as he sat on the working chair and made it turn repeatedly, hoping that the dizziness would calm down his nerves.However, as he remembered how Jake looked at him like he was humiliated, August couldn't help but feel proud of himself. He stepped his feet on the floor to stop the chair from turning.At least, he wasn't as pathetic as before. He isn't easily deceived. He knew how to fight for

OF COURSE, Myra wouldn’t go into a war without having the proper knowledge and guns to use. She knew August Fordman was— even from the start.As she watched the viral video about August, Bruce, and Samantha, she didn’t hesitate to believe August’s claims.Maybe the first reason was that she had a deep hatred for Samantha for so long, but the second reason is that… she knew Samantha’s desire more than anyone.If Samantha, her sister, abandoned August to be with Bruce, she won’t be shocked. Samnatha’s desire to live in luxury made her a bad person. She abandoned the Evergreen family for the sake of her dreams.“Sister?” August asked. His head tilted to the side in confusion.He got weirded out as every second passed. Samantha told him before that she was an only child. She also told him that she was working hard because of her family. That’s also the reason why he fell in love with Samantha— but it turned out to be a lie.He breathed heavily as the familiar pang of pain traveled onto hi
