SelenaThe sunlight streamed through the window, casting a warm glow upon the room as Channel and I slowly awakened to the sounds of commotion echoing throughout the mansion. A knot tightened in my stomach, and a sense of unease washed over me as I listened to the hurried footsteps and muffled voices downstairs.Channel blinked, rubbing her eyes sleepily. "Selena, what's going on? Why is there so much noise?"I took a deep breath, my mind racing with worry. I knew that my father's line of work was entangled with the shadows, and the sudden disturbance stirred a deep sense of fear within me. I couldn't let Channel witness the dark underbelly of my family's connections to the mafia or discover the secrets I had tried so hard to shield her from."Channel, something's not right," I said, my voice filled with urgency. "I don't want you to come downstairs. Stay here, and I'll find out what's happening. It's best if you remain unaware of the situation."Channel's eyes widened with concern. "

"Selena!" I exclaimed, catching her off guard. She glared at me, a mix of surprise and disdain etched on her face. She made no attempt to hide her contempt as she looked at me with narrowed eyes."What the hell are you doing here?" she snapped, her voice dripping with annoyance.I maintained a composed demeanor, refusing to let her hostility affect me. "Selena, it seems your father hasn't bothered to inform you yet, but I now own fifty percent of this company," I retorted, my voice laced with cool detachment. "And whether you like it or not, I have every right to be here as your partner."She scoffed dismissively, her lips curling into a sneer. "Oh, joy. Another reason to despise my life," she spat out, her words laced with venom. "I can't stand you and your despicable presence."I simply smirked, refusing to let her insults get under my skin. "We'll see about that, Selena," I replied, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "I have a feeling our partnership will be a delightful experience fo

Selena As Angel left my office, I tried to gather my thoughts and focus on the task at hand. However, before I could regain my composure, Channel barged into the room with an excited expression on her face. "Oh my god, Selena! You won't believe what just happened!" she exclaimed, practically bouncing with enthusiasm.I sighed, my weariness evident in my voice. "What is it, Channel? I'm not in the mood for games or gossip right now."Her cheerfulness faltered for a moment as she noticed my frustration. Sensing something was wrong, she approached me cautiously. "What's the matter, Selena? You seem really off today."I debated whether to confide in her, but ultimately decided to keep the truth hidden. I couldn't bring myself to admit that my ex-husband, Angel, was now my business partner and that we had a tumultuous history. Instead, I fabricated a story to deflect her concern."It's nothing, Channel. Just a mistake on one of the files," I replied dismissively, hoping she would drop th

Selena The next day, Channel and I woke up early, eager to tackle the challenges of another workday. We quickly got ready and headed to the office, hoping for a productive and fulfilling day ahead.As I entered my office, my eyes fell upon Angel, already seated at his desk. Irritation bubbled up within me, and without thinking twice, I rudely questioned his presence."What are you doing here?" I snapped, my voice laced with hostility. "And why would we need to discuss a new business plan? I thought we were done with the meeting."Angel looked taken aback by my sudden outburst, but he maintained his composure. "Selena, calm down," he said, his voice calm and measured. "There's a potential opportunity I wanted to discuss with you. It could be a game-changer for our company."I raised an eyebrow, skeptical of his intentions. "Fine," I replied curtly. "But make it quick. I don't have time to waste on frivolous conversations."We both took a seat, and Angel began explaining his ideas for

Selena The next day, I arrived at the office early, determined to focus on work and push aside the emotional turmoil from the previous day. However, as soon as I stepped into my office, I was greeted by an unwelcome sight—Angel sitting at my desk."What are you doing here?" I snapped, my irritation evident in my voice. "I thought I made it clear that we're done discussing anything beyond business."Angel looked up, surprise evident in his eyes, but he quickly composed himself. "Selena, please, hear me out," he pleaded. "I wanted to discuss the plans for the new hotel construction. It's a big project, and I believe we can make it successful if we work together."I crossed my arms, skepticism written across my face. "Fine," I grumbled reluctantly. "But make it quick. I have other things to attend to."As we delved into the conversation about the hotel project, I couldn't help but notice Angel's gaze wandering. At one point, he interrupted himself and said, "You know, Selena, despite ev

She was just nine years old, and the thought of her going out without my permission made my blood boil. I couldn't help but scold her, my voice filled with a mix of frustration and worry."Heaven, where have you been? I explicitly told you not to leave the house without my permission!" I exclaimed, my tone stern and commanding.Heaven looked down, her eyes filled with a mixture of fear and defiance. "I'm sorry, Dad," she murmured, her voice barely audible.My frustration grew, and I pressed further, needing answers. "Who brought you home? How did you get here?" I demanded, trying to understand what had transpired.Heaven hesitated, then softly replied, "A woman brought me home. She knew the way effortlessly."Confusion swirled within me, accompanied by a tinge of fear. Who was this mysterious woman who seemed to know my daughter's way back home?

Concern etched across her face as she approached me, her voice filled with empathy. "Selena, what happened? Why are you so upset?"I took a deep breath, gathering my thoughts, before meeting Channel's gaze. "Channel, there's something important I need to tell you. Something that I've kept hidden for too long," I began, my voice quivering with emotion.She sat down next to me, her eyes filled with compassion. "You can tell me anything, Selena. I'm here for you."I reached out and took her hand, seeking comfort in her presence. "You remember Heaven, the girl we saw at the theater?"

Selena The next day, I was sitting in my office, still processing the events of the previous day, when there was a knock on the door. I looked up and saw Angel standing there, looking hesitant but determined. My heart sank a little, as I really wasn't in the mood to deal with him at the moment."Selena, can we talk?" he asked, his voice tinged with both regret and hope.I sighed and replied, "Angel, I don't think there's anything left to say between us. We've both moved on, and it's best to leave the past in the past."Before Angel could respond, the door opened, and Kai walked into my office, surprising both of us. My eyes widened with shock, but beneath that, there was an underlying sense of excitement to see him again."Kai!" I exclaimed, unable to hide my joy. "I can't believe you're here! You didn't even tell me you were coming."He grinned and pulled me into a tight hug, making me forget about Angel's presence for a moment. "I missed you so much, Selena. I couldn't wait to see

My encounter with Kai, seeing him kiss Selena, only fueled the fire within me.As I navigated the halls of the office building, lost in my thoughts, I unexpectedly bumped into Selena's friend, Channel. She seemed visibly nervous in my presence, and I decided to put on a friendly facade, attempting to mask my agitation."Hey, Channel, right?" I greeted her, trying to keep my tone cordial.Channel nodded, her eyes wary but determined. "Yes, that's me. You're Angel, Selena's partner, right?"I smirked, sensing that she already knew more than she let on. "Yes, you got it. So, how long have you known Selena?"Channel hesitated for a moment before answering. "We've been friends for a while now. She's a wonderful person, and I care about her deeply.""Well, that's good to hear," I replied, trying to keep my cool de
