Chapter 62

"A nanny can't be trusted, Jess. I don't think that's a good idea." Suzanne countered, shaking her head.

"What of Debby? Since the shares thing did not work, I think she will be the best person to take care of Daisy while your mother takes some time off. What do you think?" Jessica asked again.

Suzanne glared briefly at Mallory, and shrugged her shoulders. "If Debby is going to be fine with that, I think it's okay."

"Okay, that settles it! Ma'am, I think you need to go upstairs an

  • He Left Her Broken, She Returned a Weapon   Chapter 115

    The silence in the bedroom was shattered by the sharp, rhythmic trill of Suzzane’s phone. She was mid-clasp with a pearl earring, her fingers trembling slightly as she glanced at the caller ID: General Harry. Her heart hammered against her ribs like a trapped bird. She knew what this call meant. This was the final piece of a puzzle she had been desperately trying to avoid assembling.She swiped "Accept" and pressed the device to her ear."The result is out, Mrs. Ashford," General Harry’s voice was clipped, devoid of the usual professional warmth he reserved for the town’s elite. It was cold, clinical, and ominous.Suzzane’s breath hitched. A sudden, chilling clarity washed over her. The vanity mirror reflected a pair of mahogany eyes wide with a frantic, desperate anticipation. Her pupils dilated, darting across the glass as if searching for a lie—anything other than the truth she feared. Her skin went paper-white, and her hands, which had been so steady moments before, now betrayed h

  • He Left Her Broken, She Returned a Weapon   Chapter 114

    Chapter 114 At school the next day, the cafeteria was a cacophony of clattering trays, metallic screeching, and the overlapping drone of hundreds of students seeking respite from their morning classes. At the center of this social ecosystem sat Daisy, anchored at the prime circular table by the window just exactly where she loved sitting down during breaks. She sat with a rigid, practiced elegance, her posture projecting an aura of untouchable authority. Her laughter, punctuating a lively exchange with her friends, was light and melodic, yet it carried the sharp, rehearsed quality of someone who knew exactly how she was being perceived. The atmosphere shifted abruptly, the air growing heavy and static. A shadow fell across the table, fracturing the light. Hannah stood there, backed by her loyal but visibly anxious friend, Gloria. Hannah’s face was a study in controlled agitation; her jaw was set, and her knuckles were white where she gripped the strap of her bag. “Daisy,” Hanna

    Chapter 113 "So, tell me, my love!" Blair exclaimed, her voice vibrating with unhidden excitement. She fluttered toward him, draped her arm at the back of the chai. "How was your day at school? I’ve been dying to hear how my favorite boy is doing. Tell me everything. Hm?" Jayson didn’t even look up at first. When he finally shifted his gaze, his face was a mask of cold indifference. He stared at her, his eyes tracing the elaborate, out-of-place attire she wore. "If you really wanted to know what had been going on in my life, you would have been here all this time," Jayson said, his voice flat. "Instead, you’re suddenly appearing on my doorstep. What are you doing here, Mom? And—honestly—why are you dressed like you’re attending a royal gala?" Blair’s expression soured instantly, her lips pulling into an indignant pout. "That is no way to talk to your mother, Jayson. Honestly, that was remarkably rude. You don't have to sound so ride. I'm honestly sad that we have to live apart

    Chapter 112The moment the front door creaked open, Blair was on her feet, a radiant, maternal glow lighting up her features. As Jayson stepped into the foyer with Daisy trailing behind him, Blair’s face ignited with overwhelming affection."Look at my big boy!" Blair exclaimed, her voice thick with excitement as she rushed forward.Jayson froze, his stride faltering mid-step. The surprise was etched clearly onto his face, his brows arching toward his hairline as he blinked, seemingly struggling to reconcile the setting of the house with his mother’s sudden apparition. He had no idea she was going to be visiting. Behind him, Daisy didn't share his shock. Instead, her eyes narrowed, tracing a slow, predatory line from the crown of Blair’s head to the hem of her short, form-fitting dress. The look was a masterclass in condescension, it was a flick of the eyes that dismissed Blair as if she were a tawdry ornament rather than a guest."Mom?" Jayson managed, his voice dropping into a tent

  • He Left Her Broken, She Returned a Weapon   Chapter 111

    Chapter 111The peace of the city street seemed to shiver under the weight of the impending storm. Suzanne’s shoes hammered against the pavement, each step a calculated strike of authority. She had blocked the Dark Stones burial van mid-transit, a move that had sent shockwaves through the local underworld. She didn't come alone; behind her, a group of hardened, armed soldiers moved in perfect, their black tactical gear blending into the gloomy afternoon. They carried the weight of their purpose in the stoic, dangerous set of their jaws.The atmosphere was thick, vibrating with the bustling activity of the city—muffled car horns, the distant thrum of heavy machinery, and the hushed, terrified gasps of onlookers who scrambled to clear the path of the impending danger.Suzanne stopped ten paces from the van. Her face was a canvas of pure rage. Her eyes, usually calculated and cool, burned with a predatory fire, and her jaw was tightened so severely that the muscles pulsed beneath her sk

    Chapter 110The fluorescent lights of the office hummed with a sound that felt, to Suzanne, like a physical prodding against her temple. Last night, after Daisy had left in anger, she'd cried until Michael walked into the room to console her. She regretted what she did, but Michael had told her that Daisy headed some discipline. This morning, she decided to go to the office rather than staying home and thinking about how to investigate Jessica's sudden death.She walked through the glass double doors at 8:00 AM, and the silence she expected was replaced by a show of panic. The front desk was abandoned. A printer was rhythmically spitting out error codes in a high-pitched, frantic beep. Three junior associates were standing in the hallway, looking frantic, surrounded by a pile of legal files that seemed to have no destination.Then, the chaos took shape."! Thank God," Marcus, the head of operations, stepped into her path. His tie was loosened, his hair disheveled. "The payroll softwa

    Chapter 18 "What happened?" Suzanne asked when she saw Michael approaching with a triumphant smile on his face. "Nothing serious. I only had a talk with him. Don't worry about it." Michael replied. The smile on his face suddenly disappeared as the picture from Davey's phone crossed his mind.

    Chapter 17 The hall was as silent as a graveyard, the only audible noise was the muffled whisper that scattered around the room. Seeing the power tussle in the air, Mei Li quickly stepped in. "Gentlemen, I don't think this is the place for such conversations..." "No, madam," Davey interrupted

    Chapter 15 Clarissa hummed softly in the kitchen as she moved around in her skimpy pink house dress. She was making bacon and eggs for dinner. Constantly, she glanced at the wall clock, waiting for the door censor to click. She finished setting the table, got the cutlery ready. She went to the cel
