Kiera’s eyes glimmered with joy as she stared at Van. She was touched by her grandfather’s support. The conversation with her grandfather had both comforted and unnerved her.She originally expected him to oppose her divorce from Nicholas in order to save face and consider the power the Relish Group held over their lives. But instead, he had prioritized her happiness over their business ties.“I am sorry, Van. I never meant to be rash with my words, Diana apologized.Van looked at Kiera, still wearing a smile on his face, he nodded. “Give me a second, I have something to discuss with you.”Shifting his gaze to them, he dismissed them at once. “Ray, Diana, I would like to be alone with my granddaughter. Thanks for coming.”With how angry he almost got just now, Diana did not need a second telling as to when to leave. Quickly she lowered her head respectfully and walked away, but not before stealing another glance at Diana.This time she hoped she would not push through with her plans.

As Kiera stepped out of the city hall, a sense of relief washed over her. She had achieved her goal, finally obtaining the divorce she had been seeking.It felt like a dream come through, as though the shackles that weighed down on her neck were broken.Without thinking too much she walked away from Nicholas with thoughts of how she wished to celebrate her new found independence.On the other hand, Nicholas couldn't help but feel a bitter taste in his mouth, a sour reminder of what he had lost. Watching Kiera from a distance, he silently stewed in his own emotions.Kiera stood at the roadside, patiently waiting for a taxi to whisk her away. In the midst of her anticipation, Nicholas's assistant approached in a sleek black car.Reluctantly, Nicholas cast a glance her way but seeing as she did not pay him any attention, he climbed into the vehicle."Good day sir," his P.A, Dan greeted the second the door closef."Hmm. How is Cristal doing?""She is fine sir. We got to the hospital on ti

Walking into his office, Kiera slammed her hand against his desk. The atmosphere crackled with tension as Kiera stood before her uncle, Ray, her anger simmering just beneath the surface, their voices echoing through the room.Her strong disposition radiated, refusing to be overshadowed by his condescending demeanour and she wasted no time in expressing her frustration."Do you not understand basic etiquette, Ray?" Kiera's voice dripped with disdain, her eyes flashing with defiance as her strong disposition commanded the room.Ray raised an eyebrow, his gaze piercing through her with a mixture of defiance and curiosity. "And what have you done, Kiera? The Relish Group is pulling out of the investment. Did you really think you could sever ties with Nicholas and not face any consequences?"Kiera had anticipated some form of retaliation following her divorce from Nicholas, knowing that it would inevitably fracture the cooperation between the Relish Group and Campbell.However, she had not

After dealing with some work at the office, Kiera decided to visit the club for a drink. Kiera entered the club, and made her way to one of the booths, hoping to have time alone when she saw the booth she was to occupy was a double booth and the other occupant was none other than Nicholas.“You have got to be kidding me,” she muttered under her breath as she stared at the smirk on his face when he caught sight of her.“Hey, Kiera. Are you stalking me now?” Nicholas mused.Kiera scoffed. She had been shocked by his presence but his usual remark further irked her but this… there had to be an explanation and she wanted it.“What do you mean by all this, Nicholas?”“What do you mean by that?”Kiera's mind buzzed with confusion and frustration as she confronted Nicholas in the occupied booth.Placing a hand on her waist, her eyes darkened as she questioned once more. “Is disrupting the Campbell not enough? Now you even wish to become a pest in my life.”“I do not know what you mean Kiera.

For days on end, Kiera tirelessly reached out to countless investment companies and banks, hoping to find a solution to the financial difficulties plaguing the Campbell Group.But it seemed as if the universe conspired against her, with every door shutting firmly in her face.It felt as though before she got there, someone bested her to it. She couldn't help but suspect that there was more at play than just Nicholas's influence—Ray, her uncle, was likely involved as well.Yet, with each rejection, Kiera's determination only grew stronger. She couldn't bear to abandon the company that held not only her family's legacy but also her own dreams.Losing against her uncle was not part of the plan.“Sigh… can any good thing come out of this day?” Kiera lamented as she stared at the long list of potential contact helpers, Lisa got for her.She had successfully ticked on almost every name present. All except one and even that, she wasn’t so sure.“The last I recall, Jewel’s Pristine was a clos
