Chapter 42: A Narcissistic Father's Words   "Do you not fear walking around here alone?" Taylor asked, startling her as he approached.   "What are you doing here?" she questioned, looking around and realizing she couldn't see anyone else.   "I want to talk to you alone."   "I have nothing to talk to you about!" she declared, attempting to run, but he grabbed her waist, pinning her against his back.   "No!" she protested, struggling as he held her forcefully, almost suffocating her. "If you scream, I'll lie and say you're seducing me. Who do you think they'll believe?"   

Chapter 44. Deceiving Richard.   She hurried along with Richard after bidding farewell to her old friend Alfred. As they got into the car, Richard noticed her anxiety but still found amusement in seeing her in this state.   They were already halfway when Elizabeth received a call from her friend.   "Stop the car!" she shouted, desperate.   "What on earth are you doing?" he asked as she answered.   She sighed in relief upon hearing her friend's voice, saying she was at the hospital. She put the call on speaker, and Gaby began her drama, stating she was feeling really unwell.

Chapter 46: Quest for the TruthElizabeth was taken aback as she left the office and Jayden stood there holding that box."Why are you giving this to me?" she asked, surprised."You left it behind, I believe you should keep it, since you believe so much in lies," he suggested, cold and in a bad mood.She took the box without saying anything else and headed to her room; it had been such a turbulent morning and it wasn't even noon yet.Richard's mansion suddenly seemed very busy. He wasn't accustomed to calling so many employees to his house, but he thought he would need to, to assist a woman like Elizabeth, even though she had lived for years in a simple house, doing ordinary activities alongside her friend Gaby.Jayden, after helping Ailda assign each employee, headed to the establishment where Elizabeth's best friend worked.As soon as the girl saw that guy enter and sit, choosing a table in a more secluded corner, she anxiously followed him."How is Liz?" she asked as she sat down,

"Chapter 48 - Taylor's Fall"Ailda looked at her apprehensively, knowing she couldn't touch on the subject, yet she was so moved by Elizabeth's situation."Many years ago, when Richard's older sister died, his middle sister, Aloury, married his sister's ex-husband. It seems she had feelings for Richard even then, but Richard was fighting to claim the inheritance from his deceased sister that remained in Ricardo's hands, as he knew that man was only with his sister for her money.""Goodness...""Yes, and when Aloury married Ricardo, Richard's plans fell apart.""And did she also give her share to Ricardo to manage?" Ailda asked, interested. Ailda smiled and shook her head negatively."Aloury's share is in Richard's hands.

"Chapter 50 - A Remembered Past" Richard Campbell: "Hello, Miss Bay, I believe I have matters of your interest. It's time for us to meet." Alfred: "My regards, Mrs. Bay. Your efforts are remarkable. I'm flattered by your attention to our family and also interested in knowing more details about the reasons behind your recent attack on the Campbells." Taylor Campbell: "Mrs. Bay, I know it might seem a little inconvenient for me to send you this email, but I believe there's no reason for you to attack me and my father like this. We can come to an agreement and resolve this as mature individuals. I never thought you'd be capable of such a low game just because you don't like someone. I thought you were a more reasonable person."
