NovelEnglishReturning the call, she asked, “Where were you last night?”
Speaking softly, he replied, “You toldto park the car near the entrance. When I cback to fetch you, you were gone. I tried calling, but you didn’t answer. Where are you? I can cto you right now.”
Rhea rubbed her temples. It seemed Gianni had swooped in while her companion had been away with the car. During their intimacy, she’d been too inebriated to recognize who she was with, assuming it was her younger companion.
Rushing to the bathroom, she scrubbed away at the traces left on her body, again and again. What was her next move? Gianni had that video.
The last thing she wanted was to be under his thumb. Yet, he was crafty enough to follow through on his threat to release it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf that video saw the light of day, her reputation would be ruined.
After exiting the hotel, Rhea massaged her temples and narrowed her eyes. The woman she’d seen at the bar last night-was it Shera?
A shiver went down her spine. If it was Shera, vengeance was certain.
She needed to make a call, just to confirm that Shera was still overseas and under her thumb.
Rhea had hidden Shera overseas after the car accident left her weak and bleeding profusely.
Marcus had also been in the accident, but he had been saved later and out of danger.

Rhea was well aware that if Shera perished in his car, it would weigh on the conscience of the Thomas family. As Bolton had no sway in the Thomas Group, she convinced him to fake Shera’s death.
Initially, Bolton was furious. He slapped her, labeling her insane.
Even so, she managed to sway him.
“Dad, in the wake of that car accident, Shera faced multiple fractures throughout her body, experienced massive internal bleeding, and sustained severe physical damage. Even if she’s alive, Marcus won’t consider marrying her. If he genuinely favored her, our standing within the Thomas Group would’ve been less precarious, and you would’ve secured that promotion. Should Shera’s life be lost, the Thomas family will bear guilt towards us, affording us leverage. In the future, Marcus is certain to assign you a significant role.
Furthermore, I am determined to win Celeste’s favor, ensuring the prosperity of our family.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBolton ultimately concurred with her proposition. He discreetly incentivized the doctor, facilitating Shera’s transfer abroad. During Marcus’ period of unconsciousness, Bolton discovered another cadaver.
He then disseminated the narrative of her demise, asserting that her body had been subjected to cremation.
Remarkably, events unfolded according to the plan. Marcus actually placed Bolton in an important position, and Celeste was quite fond of Rhea.
Nevertheless, what eluded her anticipation was that Marcus merely regarded her as a sister. Initially, she wanted to make him fall for her.
Concerning Celeste, she did not perceive her as a prospective daughter-in-law. Instead, Celeste pledged to bestow a significant gift upon Rhea on the day of her wedding.
Surprisingly, Celeste designated the enigmatic Mia as Marcus’ spouse.
On that particular day, when Mia was invited into the Thomas family fold, Rhea found herself consumed by anger. It seemed that all her efforts had been rendered futile.
She attempted to call the overseas villa, but she received no response.
