"Aaah! Oh my god!" Mami Vic stood up and composed herself. "Please, escort Mister Ezekiel De Silva on this stage to join us! Oh my god! I never expected this! I wish you had told me so I could prepare myself and the studio for the proper treatment of a De Silva, Serena!"I laughed. "It's alright, Mami Vic."What can I say? Ezekiel De Silva is a respected man who must never disappoint. Even amid the issues, he should be served well."OH.MY.GOD!!" Mami Vic covered her mouth as Ezekiel emerged from backstage.He was wearing casual attire—a white polo and black trousers—but his accessories and overall appearance screamed wealth. From his watch, necklace, and ring to his shoes, you could immediately see the sparkle from afar.But the main reason the audience inside the studio screamed once again was his perfect appearance. You would think he was a foreign artist and model, but he was just a businessman."If Serena Laurel is an angel who descended to earth, her husband is a Greek god in hum

"RAQUEL! Raquel, wake up! Get up!"Raquel's face scrunched up as her eyes opened wide from the strong shaking of her body."What the heck is your problem, Mom?" Irritated, she sat up in bed, covering her exposed chest with the blanket, while Brantley continued to peacefully sleep beside her."Hurry up and get dressed! Ezekiel and Serena are here!" Her mother's voice carried a mix of panic, fear, and concern.Raquel's drowsy eyes fully opened at the sound. "What?! They're here?!""Yes! I let them into the living room! They're waiting for you; they specifically asked for you!"Her body suddenly turned cold. Intense anxiety thumped in her chest. Her mind went blank, but various scenarios quickly raced through her thoughts.Why are they here? Do they already know about me? What are they going to do to me?No! This can't end just like this! After all the sacrifices she made just to reach this position, she can't let Serena bring her down so easily!"What are you still doing, dear? Hurry up,

Ezekiel was left in a state of panic while still holding Serena's hand as she was being rushed to the emergency room."S-Serena, please hold on... Wake up, please!" Tears streamed down his face, falling from his eyes onto his cheeks.He tried to talk to his wife, even though she was unconscious. Her eyes remained closed as she lay on the rolling bed. Red liquid continued to flow down her face and body.As he observed, the sobs escaped from his throat. His chest tightened, making it harder and harder for him to breathe. His stomach churned, weakening his body."Sir, you can only go this far; we'll take care of her from here," a female nurse said, stopping him from entering a room.He stumbled to a halt, watching Serena being taken into a room with the nurses, until the door closed.He lost himself, leaning against the nearby wall, drawing strength from it to keep himself from collapsing onto the cold cement.This is the first time he felt his whole body trembling in fear and great anxi

From his high office in his company, Ezekiel observed the unfolding drama with a calculating gaze. Elizabeth, his stepmother, had risen to power in the company under the influence of her late father. He witnessed how she manipulated her way to become the president of the company, using her cunning and deceit to secure her position. But now, he will no longer turn a blind eye, as he finally has a reason to act. A pest within his territory must be eliminated.So when the news of the employees' lawsuit against Elizabeth reached his ears, a sinister smile played on his lips. He saw it as the perfect opportunity to expose her true nature and regain control over his father's company, which rightfully belonged to him."It's time to expose Mother's deceitful ways. The employees' lawsuit is the perfect opportunity to reveal her true colors and reclaim what is rightfully mine," he said to his secretary, Nathan."Sir, are you sure about what you're going to do? Miss Elizabeth De Silva gained her

Raquel ran as fast as she could to reach the hospital where her mother was taken.When she saw Elizabeth's lawyer, she hurriedly approached him with bloodshot eyes."W-Where is she?" she tightly grabbed the old man's arms.The man's face remained serious. "I'm sorry, Miss Raquel. But she's still undergoing an operation to save her life. I'm not going to lie about this matter; she's in a very critical condition because of the explosion. There's a high chance of... not surviving at all.""What the hell do you mean?""Her whole body was burned by the fire, and the injuries from the explosion are severe—""Shut up!!"Her lower lip trembled, and she averted her gaze. She fought back tears while her throat tightened with suppressed emotions."Aren't you supposed to be a lawyer? You're not a doctor to speak like that," she glared at him despite the intense redness in her eyes. "It's not up to you to decide whether she survives or not!""Nevertheless, I witnessed the incident, Miss Raquel, and
