Caroline eyed Vanessa massaging her temples while she was still lying on the hospital bed, and her heart ached for her. With furrowed brows, she queried, "How are you feeling, Miss Grant?"Because Caroline understood how dangerous yesterday was for Vanessa, and if they were a bit late, then those men had taken advantage of Vanessa, and the outcome would be dire.Caroline got goosebumps all over her body by just imagining it and she shook her head and inhaled a chunk of air to keep herself calm.Hearing her question, Vanessa gave a soft smile and shook her head as she muttered slowly, "I'm almost recovered by now."With a pause, Vanessa thought for a second and asked with a narrowed gaze, "did you find any information about the instigator last night?"Caroline nodded and licked her lips, and her eyes fluttered as she uttered a name, "It's Miss Jones."As soon as the name escaped her lips, Vanessa frowned and muttered under her breath but it came out as a question since she couldn't bel
Vanessa marched into the office building with her head held high, shoulders squared, and her face was cold yet calm.She pushed her office door and settled on the chair, her eyes landed on the documents that were resting on the table.In the next second, Caroline entered the cabin and greeted Vanessa politely, and mumbled, "Miss Grant, this file has the list of various real estate companies that were coming into the limelight recently."After she heard Caroline's words, Vanessa gave a nod and crossed her legs before she grabbed the file lazily, and her eyes roamed across the contents of it quickly when her lips arched upwards, visibly satisfied.When she put the file down, she stared at Caroline and queried with raised brows, "I presume you have investigated all of them thoroughly.""Yes, Miss Grant," Caroline answered respectfully when Vanessa fiddled with her hands and asked leisurely, "which one among them would you suggest then?"Caroline was taken aback when she heard the sudden
Caroline's ears boomed with Vanessa's remark, "Would Silas Dixton's blood pressure skyrocket when he heard the good news?"She couldn't help but glance at Vanessa's confident silhouette while grasping the hidden taunt in the comment and she shook her head, while a small smile was etched on her face as she realized the power of Vanessa, and the admiration she had in her heart for Vanessa incereased!While Vanessa, on the other hand, had a deep frown on her face as she recalled the attitude of Silas Dixon and RX Corporation, and a sneer escaped her lips as she muttered under her breath with a scoff, "do they really think they can play games against me just because they thought I had connections and believed I'm only beauty with no brain?""Well, then it's high time they realized who I truly am!" She mused while a smirk played on her pretty face as she ran her finger across her hair while her eyes gleamed as a determination settled on her face, "I, Vanessa Grant, is not a weak woman who
As soon as Fiona heard the explosive news regarding Vanessa's revenge against Mia Jones, she was so ecstatic that the only thing running in her mind all day was to see the misery of Mia Jones, and the anticipation in her heart had already reached the peak limits as if she was the one getting vengeance instead of Vanessa.When the clock struck six o'clock in the evening, Fiona couldn't keep her calm anymore and almost rushed to Vanessa's house, and the eagerness in her gaze couldn't be hidden even after her best efforts to suppress it.Eyeing her enthusiasm, Vanessa let out a soft smile and didn't say anything else while Fiona invited herself into Vanessa's house and settled herself comfortably on the sofa with her legs crossed onto her thighs.In the next minute, Fiona fiddled through her handbag and placed a tiny bottle on the table in front of Vanessa, and muttered with a sly smirk dancing on her face, "this is the medicine."With her slender fingers pointing onto the medicine bottl
While complaining to Austin, Mia's tears burst out from her eyes, and she indeed looked so pitiable.However, Vanessa, who was standing to the side, didn't even bat her eyelid with the scene unfolding in front of her, while her lips pursed and the coldness radiating from her was intense as she glanced at the pair of Jones siblings.Mia didn't waste any chance to act even more miserable in front of Austin and David as she clung to Austin's arm like a pitiful child while choking on her saliva as she kept on crying like there was no tomorrow.Seeing Mia in such a wretched state, Austin's face turned sullen while he balled his hands into fists, trying to control his temper as he bore his piercing gaze at Vanessa as if he wanted to burn her alive with his scorching glare.David who stood still till then couldn't control himself anymore and released a breath in disappointment as he queried sharply, "Vanessa, are you the one who did it?"As Vanessa remained silent, he continued with a perple
When Austin heard Mia's words, a frown settled on his handsome face, but he stated calmly, "let's get you treated first."But Mia wasn't ready to give Vanessa such an easy win by leaving just like that. Moreover, she didn't want to let Vanessa have the upper hand.With that, she said word for word, "I won't unless she kneel down and begged me. How dare she to drug me!"Seeing no movement from Vanessa, Mia clenched her fists and yelled, "I'm calling the police and I will make a case file against Vanessa for kidnapping and drugging me."Vanessa's eyes crinkled when she heard her words, and she chimed in lazily, "alright. Let me have the honor of calling the police for you, Miss Jones."As soon as she finished saying it, she stick true to her words and opened her mobile and dialed 911. But before she pressed the call button, her amber orbs swept across Mia and enunciated each word with conviction, "by the way, it just struck me that calling police would give me the best chance to have th
By the time Austin brought Mia to the hospital, the effects of the drug reached their peak, and it was driving Mia to the brink of insanity as the scorching heat inside her body felt as if she was burning in the fire with no way to cool those flames off.David and Austin held her firmly and were trying to keep her firm, but Mia couldn't behave in her usual ladylike manner when the arousal was so intense that she even believed she would die if she didn't get the relief she so badly needed. It was as if she was being possessed by a sex hungry beast.And involuntarily, her nails scratched David's handsome face when he tried to keep a firm grip on her wrists to prevent herself from tearing off the remaining dress on her body.Exasperated, David sighed as he realized he couldn't possibly handle Mia if it took some more time in reaching the doctor's cabin and he queried Austin with a sense of urgency in his tone, "how much more are we supposed to walk to go to the damn doctor?"However, he
David grabbed the cigarette from the pack in Austin's hands and took a puff with his eyes lowered as if he was in deep thoughts.The image of Vanessa and the way she did things weren't getting out of his head, and he knew in his heart that he had no better impression of Vanessa because she definitely had become more ruthless these days.Although she wasn't solely responsible for her actions, her negative traits had definitely outshined her positive attributes, because he saw how cold and merciless she was when she did something.However, the night when she became a drumming diva in the club was a nice memory he would cherish. Because on that day, she had the vitality in her eyes and magic in her hands that had taken him to a musical trance and gave peace to his troubled mind.With that, David exhaled the smoke and mumbled, "anyhow I can see very clearly that Vanessa was indeed changed a lot after she left you. Previously when you both were still a married couple, she was so gentle and
