DAMON

I check my Rolex for the fourth time in ten minutes. Then I slide my thumb over the screen of my burner phone. There’s absolutely fucking nothing on the screen. Not a single text from that hopeless, useless dog, Daniel. The only reason I employed him was just to spite my brother and his wretched wife. But that’s not even working anymore. Jade doesn't care about Daniel.

An acidic rage simmers in the pit of my stomach as I stare out the windows of the headquarters of the Hemsworth Global Ho

  • Rewrite My Fate   Chapter 134: The Secret Room

    ~~DAMON~~“Damon, dear, are you absolutely certain this is a good idea?” Grandmother asks quietly as the Bentley glides to a stop in the driveway. She sits beside me with her hands folded neatly in her lap, her elegant features etched with concern. Ever since the incident at the shooting range, she has been unusually withdrawn. I lower my eyes, forcing shame into my expression. “I have to try, Grandmother.”Her gaze softens. “What you did was cruel,” she says gently as if she's scared to hurt my feelings. Old age has made her softer. “You know how deeply Zayn was affected by what happened years ago. Pointing a gun at him…” She sighs heavily. “I still cannot understand why you would do such a thing again. I’ve warned you several times to never do that to you brother.”I look away.I wanted to kill him, Grandmother.That was the truth. I wanted to kill him and his silly little wife. If they're gone, maybe my problems would be obliterated with their demise. I understand exactly why I

  • Rewrite My Fate   Chapter 133: Jealous

    JADE The call disconnects, and the pieces of my fractured life slam together with the force of a freight train. I wasn't sick. I had my womb taken out. I was killed. The thought echoes in my skull as I weep bitterly in the bathroom. Barbara and Daniel didn't just hate me. They used me and when I was no longer useful, they experimented on me. Just like Jenna is experimenting on Mr. Bennett. I rinse my face with cool water from the faucet. I stare at my reflection in the mirror. The tears are gone, replaced by a burning resolve. I swallow the lump of grief in my throat, force my posture straight, and step back out into the master bedroom. Mr. Bennett is practically glowing. He has tossed his newspaper aside and is currently trying to do light stretches by the window, hum-singing an old jazz tune under his breath. The frail, dying old man from last week is completely gone. In his place is a man reclaiming his vitality. “Ah, Jade! There you are,” he booms, turning around with a wide

    “Jade!” she pants, her hand flying to her chest as she tries to regain her composure. “You… you frightened me.”“Clearly,” I say, crossing my arms as I look from her pale face down to the scattered placebos. “You look like you've just seen a ghost, Jenna. Why are you handling Mr. Bennett's medication? I thought Lucy was in charge of that now.”Jenna’s shock disappears. She straightens her posture, trying to look imposing. “I am his wife, Jade. I have every right to check on his treatments. In fact, I was just noticing how unusually well Henry is doing lately.”“Unusually well?” I take a step closer, forcing her to look up at me. “Most people call that a recovery, Jenna. You sound disappointed.”“Don't be absurd. I’m his wife. I care about his health more than anyone in this house. I was just checking to make sure the dosage was correct.”“The dosage is perfect. He hasn't vomited blood in a week. His hands have stopped shaking. It's almost as if whatever was making him sick has suddenl

    “I’m so sorry,” I apologize, my voice dripping with pretentious innocence as I look down at the disaster on the floor. I turn to Mr. Bennett with a bright smile. “I guess we'll have to eat out after all.”Mr. Bennett’s face lights up. He grins like a schoolboy on a snow day and stands up from the bed so fast, probably scared I would change my mind. Jenna’s glare is hot enough to pierce through a solid brick wall. She forces a sweet smile onto her face. “Don't be ridiculous, Jade. Accidents happen. I’ll just have the kitchen make another tray.”“That’ll take too much time,” I retort. “And Mr. Bennett is starving.”“The maids will get it ready in no time,” she replies.Meanwhile, Henry is already moving. He throws on his jacket, a baseball cap, and a pair of dark sunglasses—his usual disguise whenever he sneaks out of the estate. Watching him move with such desperate eagerness brings sadness to my heart. He is a billionaire, yet he is acting like a prisoner escaping a cage.“We’re eati

  • Rewrite My Fate   Chapter 130: Something Isn't Right

    The next morning, Zayn and I needed to see Amanda. We drive to his family’s estate because she asked to have breakfast with us. She’s happy to see us together. At the dining table, the whole family is present. Mr. Hemsworth, his wife… and Damon. It’s the first time I’m seeing him since the night at the company party.After breakfast, Amanda and I decided to chat about anything. Mrs. Hemsworth leaves shortly after, clearly irritated throughout our conversations. I know she doesn't like me. She can't even pretend to. Mr. Hemsworth and Zayn are outside. And so is Damon.I don't like the fact that he’s here, but I can't stop him from coming to see his family. It’s his home after all. If they don't mind that he’s here, then who am I to question their judgment? Suddenly, Amanda’s expression changes the moment she hears the unmistakable sound of a gunshot. I flinch in my seat.“What’s that?” I quiver.Zayn is outside. I stand quickly without thinking and running outside the mansion. Far out

  • Rewrite My Fate   Chapter 129: This Time Forever

    JADEMr. Bennett’s personal driver drives me back home. The time was past seven when I left his estate. I’d lost track of time, laughing, talking, and listening to stories about his youth. It seemed like we’ve known each other forever. Twenty-four years ago, I think to myself, my fingers tightly interlacing in my lap as I stare out the tinted window at the blurred city lights. His wife, Diana died the exact year I was born. And the face... how can two strangers share the exact same face? If life isn't as crazy as it is, I might say I could be a reincarnation of Diana. Ha ha! That’s funny. Maybe not as funny as I think because Mr. Bennett and I act as if we’ve known each other in a past life we both must have shared.As the car pulls up my driveway, a flutter of excitement replaces the mystery in my chest. For the first time in a long time, I walk into our home with a bright smile on my face, knowing Zayn is already at home, waiting for me. I’m super excited to see him. I swing the f

    “Midnight tomorrow is too soon,” I say, pretending to care what happens to Daniel. “Jade is too wicked.”“I'm... I'm going to have to call her,” Daniel says almost immediately, his voice dropping into a tone that makes my stomach turn. “I'll have to beg her, Barb. I'll swallow my pride. I'll get do

    ~~DANIEL~~It’s been three days since Damon stopped showing up for work and I’ve been downgraded from consultant to janitor. His phone line is dead. He has left me in this corporate hellhole to be ground into dust by his brother’s invisible boot.“The executive suites on floors forty through fifty-

    JADE“We need to leave,” Zayn says immediately.“Wait…Zayn—”Before I can finish speaking, he pulls me out of the hallway, and the next thing I know we’re in his car, driving back to the mansion. “Zayn, what is going on?”Amanda is calling his phone non-stop, but Zayn doesn't glance at the phone e

    “You really want to die?” Damon laughs. “I can arrange that for you.”“Why don't you just go ahead and do it yourself?”“You want to die by my own hands, little brother?”“I’d like to see you try.”The silence that follows my invitation is definite. Damon’s smirk is infuriating. I don't take my han
