Kate loved her life then how did she end up unlucky, how could she have been so naive and blind. Rose was like a sister to her while Kyle was the love of her life-or so she thought. Shocked to find out her boyfriend was cheating on her and on that same night, her bestfriend planned her car accident. The two people she cherished the most in the world ended up betraying her. No, she won't let them get away with it. Begging for a second chance, Kate's wish was granted. And 4 years later, she's back in City S as Taylor Cosgrove, the CEO of TAC Limited ready to get her revenge. Lies, truth, betrayal, love, and more secrets ahead. Determined to get justice for herself, but what happens when she learns her past is responsible for her present, and discovers a heartbreaking secret. "So it was all planned from the start", Kate thought not able to believe it. "Why! why did you do it?", she cried in pain, her eyes red and puffy from crying. "Isn't it obvious Kate..... I did it because I love you". ********* And as fate would have it she crossed paths with her long lost lover from her childhood. "Don't you remember me Kate?", He asked, hurt, the pain in his eyes evident. Kate had a conflicting look on her face. Did she know him?
View More"You're demanding too much Miss Cosgrove, how about we change the profit percent. Instead of fifty fifty, let's make it 51 - 49, what do you say?", Rose asked expectantly.Kate hissed, "wasn't your action too much that day when you lost the chance to finalize this same deal. I don't like to cheat my business partners so leave the profit percent as it is"."I've already told you what I want Miss Andino, is either you fulfill it and I'll sign the contract, no one will find out about this, or.... I don't finalize this contract and no more contracts from us in the future", Kate said with a shrug.Rose gritted her teeth, her hands balled into a fist. "She had to make a difficult choice. Was it really worth sacrificing her shares, her chance in taking over the business to make Taylor sign the contract?", She thought."If you need some more time to think about it, no problem. You'll just have to make another appointment", Kate said, grabbing her handbag about to stand-up."I agree", Rose blu
"Kyle? What was he doing here?" Kate wondered, surprised and confused. "Was he really here to see Rose??"."Taylor, surprising to see you. What are you doing here?", Kyle asked nervously, hiding the takeaway bag behind him."I could ask you the same. I'm here for business with Miss Andino, what about you?", Kate asked with a raised eyebrow, eyeing Kyle suspiciously."Well I'm h..ere..be..cause...", Kyle stammered, suddenly feeling nervous.Rose gave Kyle a deadly glare then turned to Kate with a sweet smile. "I'm really sorry Miss Cosgrove, my friend here doesn't know when he's meant to visit", she said, coming to Kyle's rescue, standing up. "No problem, I guess it must be urgent if not, he won't barge in like that"."Yes, It better be", Rose said, annoyed, eyeing Kyle. "She won't spare Kyle for interrupting her meeting", she thought."Please excuse me for a moment '', Rose turned to Kate with an apologetic smile."No worries, take your time", Kate gave her a polite smile in return.
Kate stepped out of the elevator with Stacy, she could already feel Rose's piercing gaze on her."Even I can't wait to meet you Rose, and find out what you have planned", Kate thought, following Stacy.Stacy knocked on the door. "Come in", a voice said shortly after.Stacy opened the door with Kate following closely behind."Ma, Miss Cosgrove", Stacy said, gesturing at Kate.Rose nodded, "leave us", she instructed.Stacy nodded leaving only Kate and Rose in the room."Long time no see Miss Andino", Kate greeted with a fake smile on her face."Indeed Miss Cosgrove, the last time we met was at my engagement party. I didn't get the chance to ask if you enjoyed the party cause you left early", Rose said with a fake smile on her face, sarcasm in her tone.Kate balled her hand into a fist, a frown on her face."Am sure Miss Andino didn't make this appointment to talk about her engagement party", Kate said in a serious tone."Of course not", Rose said, clearing her throat. She didn't fail to
THURSDAYIN THE MORNING, AT THE ANDINO'S MANSION, Nathaniel sat in the study room with Old Man Andino."You mean she decided to leave the house", Gabriel repeated his son-in-law's words. “No wonder the house seemed quiet today", he added."This is a serious matter Dad, Rose left the house we don't know where she went and Tiff is really worried about her", Nathaniel signed, rubbing his forehead."It's a good thing she left the house, and don't worry about Tiffany she'll be fine, she's my daughter after all", Gabriel said unbothered."At least she still goes to the company"."I don't care whether she goes to the company or not", Gabriel snapped, eyeing his son-in-law. "I made a mistake letting you allow her to work in the company, letting her think she could ever be the heiress of this family, as long as I’m alive it will never happen", Gabriel vowed fiercely."I'm disappointed in you Nathaniel, how could you give your daughter's right to an outsider, a stranger", Gabriel stressed, di
She already knew Rose was the one behind her accident, that's why she never bothered to find out what caused her accident in the first place. She also thought it was brake failure but now she thinks about it, she couldn't open her door nor window when she tried to escape. So it was surely more than some brake failure."A brake failure can't just happen in a night except if it was done intentionally", Charles added, ignoring Kate's question."Here's the weird part, when we checked the car engine, the brake fluid reservoir was fine, just burnt", Gracie said, confused."Car engine??"."Yes", Gracie nodded, "Thanks to Mr billionaire here we have the car's original parts, not in a good shape though"."There was no sign of leak of the brake fluid, and at the scene of the accident either", Gracie added."That's strange", Kate nodded, "there was nothing wrong with the brakes then why wasn't it working", she thought confused."Then why did the test and investigation say it was brake failure?"
Alexander nodded, "let's go", he said, leading them deeper in the cave, they followed."How do you know Alexander?", Kate whispered to Charles."Why do you ask?", Charles whispered back with a raised eyebrow."Just curious", Kate shrugged."Well me and Alex go a long way back. We are brothers than friends, including Vincent ","Who's Vincent?","A pal of ours, he's not in the city but you'll meet him soon", Charles answered."Oh", Kate nodded, "so you, Alexander and Vincent have known each other for a very long time"."Since high school", Charles answered."Wow, that long"."Hmm", Charles nodded. "They've been with me every step of the way, and if there's anyone I trust with my life it's them".Kate could see how much Charles trusted his friends, and she could sense they were good too. Though she hadn't meant Vincent but if Charles trusted him, it meant he was a good person. Unlike her, she was not lucky when it came to trusting people and making friends. "Alex ran away from home be
Kate momentarily smacked herself, she just behaved like a little child who was excited to finally see her dad."You wish", Kate said clearing her throat, taking a few steps back. "I just wanted to make sure you didn't forget about our.....". "Our deal", Charles completed, "I told you Taylor am a man of my words", he added with a wink.Charles signed in relief when he saw Taylor hadn't left. He had just left a very important meeting to meet her. He had almost forgotten about their meeting today cause he had been busy all day and didn't have time to stop by at the office but luckily remembered at the last minute, and drove back to the office so he could meet her.Even if he'll lose the multi-million dollar deal, he didn't care, Taylor was more important right now. If he wants her to let him in her life again, he had to show her she could trust him."C'mon let's go", Charles ushered Kate out of the office to the elevator.Kate watched as the elevator went down below the building to the
Monday 22, August 2022.In the morning at Donovan's Car Enterprise.Kate parked her car, stepping out when her phone rang."Yes Olivia", Kate answered, locking her car, then walked towards the entrance of the company."Fast Tach Limited wants to make an appointment with you", Olivia informed. Olivia Curt is Kate's secretary."Is that so", Kate said stopping in her tracks, "she already saw it coming"."What's the purpose?", She asked."It's not stated ma", Olivia answered."Hmmm", Kate hummed contemplating."Do you want me to make the appointment or should I...."."Make the appointment", Kate interrupted, "Thursday, 12pm"."Yes ma", Olivia nodded, call ends."I wonder what trick you've got up your sleeves now Rose", Kate thought with an amused look on her face, as she walked into the company meeting Jack at the elevator, as usual."Good morning Jack", she greeted as they both stepped into the elevator."Good morning Miss Cosgrove"."Is Charles at the office?"Kate asked expectantly, "sh
"Speaking of grandpa trusting people, grandpa welcomed Taylor, and even told her to call him grandpa, weird and surprising", Claire stated, sitting opposite her parents."Yes", Stephanie and Bryce both nodded in agreement."I didn't expect grandpa to accept Taylor so easily, grandpa had always been hard to please", Claire said, the surprise in her tone evident. "Well Taylor is a nice girl, I like her too", Stephanie said smiling, "Do you think she'll agree to be my daughter-in-law?” Stephanie asked with a smile."Taylor is our business partner dear", Bryce said rubbing his forehead."And so what, it's not like she won't get married someday", Stephanie countered."And who would you get her married to, if I may ask?", Bryce asked with a raised eyebrow."Charles of course, who else?", Stephanie said in a matter of fact tone.Bryce stared at his wife bewild, shaking his head, "you do know Charles is engaged and will get married in 3 months time?"."Yh I know, but.....didn't you see the w
