Stacy arrived at Max's office all dressed up. Her body was still sore from the injury she had received, courtesy of Jade. She knew Max wanted nothing to do with her, especially since she believed he had gone to a large extent to inflict pain on her. However, she was there on a mission and planned that she would not leave until she got what she wanted.Fortunately, Max's secretary was someone she had once recommended to Max, and she was more loyal to her than she was to anyone else in the company. She called the secretary's phone and asked, "Is Max in the office?" The secretary who had no idea that Max had cut off ties with Stacy replied, "Yes, he's in the office and he's busy, but why do you ask?" "Well, I need you to help me with something," Stacy replied. "I need access to Max's phone for a brief moment, I want you to distract him for me." "What do I need to do?" The secretary asked. Max was in his office when his secretary ran in and said, "Sir, there's an emergency at the e

Max suddenly recalled the audio file he was about to play in his office before his children called and took out his phone. He played the audio file and gasped when he realized it was the same one Jade had deleted from his phone. He realized Stacy must have recovered it but he had no idea what she stood to gain. When he played the audio to the end, he laughed self-depreciatingly, "You're such a fool, Max. If you didn't fall for that vixen, you wouldn't have trusted her so much and would have found out the truth sooner." He called the doctor he had asked to run a DNA test and asked if the results were ready. "Yes it is," the doctor replied. "What does it say?" He asked. "It's a 99.9 percent match," the doctor revealed. "The relationship is that of mother and daughter." Max smiled bitterly, "Thank you, doctor." And continued to drink. Jade's hands shivered as she drove back home. Tears were rolling down her cheeks and she cursed Henry in her heart for her misfortune. Sh

JADE HART After Max ordered his men to throw me out, two of the men dropped their weapons and quickly approached me, to carry out his order. However, with the little skills I had, I refused to let them have their way so easily. I punched the first man who tried to hold me and when the second came too, I did the same to him. This caused two more men to drop their weapons as well and come after me. I raised my leg to kick one of them, but they caught both my hands and legs, and I was carried outside. "This is not over, Max," I yelled as the men took me out through the gate and dumped me outside. I got up, wiped my hands and my butt, and turned to look at the men all going back into the house. More tears rolled down my cheeks as I felt like the world had collapsed on my shoulders. My phone rang at this point and I took it out of my bag which had been thrown right beside me on the floor. I answered the call which was from one of my bodyguards who wanted to confirm our plans fo

After Jade left, Max resumed drinking as he wondered the next step she was going to take. "You are such a terrible person, Jade," he thought. "When you first came here, I had expected that you'd be sorry for everything you did, but no, you weren't. You did your best to justify your actions and only said sorry when you realized that there was no way out. I would've given you a chance, for the sake of my feelings for you and for the sake of our children, but you never loved me. I was merely a means to an end from the very beginning up until now." He thought about how she had tried to make him unconscious with a stun gun, so she could run away with his children and shook his head, "Why, Jade? Am I so bad that you can't even love me? I want to let go of everything so you can be happy, but it hurts too much; The pain of your betrayal from the very beginning and even now.The fact that you see me as an enemy, whom you want to win against, pains me a lot. This is the very reason why thing
