“You guys really don’t know?” Mr. Wesley asked again, his voice calm but edged with disbelief as his gaze moved slowly from one face to another.

He was sudying their stunned expressions as though he was trying to confirm whether this was genuine ignorance or a poorly acted performance.

The atmosphere in the conference room had shifted completely, thick tension settling over everyone like a heavy cloud that refused to lift.

Curtis swallowed hard, his throat tightening as unease crept up his spi

  • The True Heiress, His Worst Nightmare   Chapter 163: Unexpected Twist

    A suffocating silence hung over the boardroom.The polished conference table that had witnessed countless triumphant decisions now seemed to have become a battlefield where every person seated around it was waiting for the next devastating blow. Laptops remained open, financial reports were scattered across the glossy surface, and several untouched cups of coffee had long gone cold.Every pair of eyes remained fixed on the large screen displaying Ecofel's market performance.The numbers refused to cooperate.The company's stock had already suffered an aggressive wave of buying over the past several trading sessions, yet the acquisition had not slowed. Whoever was behind it wasn't making random purchases. saying this was an unexpected twist could rather be understatement. Every move had been calculated frighteningly, targeting available shares from multiple directions until the ownership percentage kept climbing beyond what anyone had predicted.One of the board members broke the s

  • The True Heiress, His Worst Nightmare   Chapter 162: Lauren Exposed

    Jason stepped out of his car and adjusted the cuff of his suit before making his way toward the towering commercial building where he had an important business meeting. The glass structure reflected the bustling city around it, with luxury vehicles pulling in and out of the entrance as executives hurried through the revolving doors.His assistant followed a few steps behind, carrying a leather folder containing the day's meeting agenda.Jason had almost reached the entrance when movement several meters away caught his attention.Three people were walking out of the building through another exit.One of them was Lauren.She wore a fitted cream-colored business suit, her posture poised and her expression composed as she exchanged a few final words with the two men accompanying her. Both men were dressed in black suits with matching ties, their polished appearance immediately revealing they were high-ranking corporate executives.Jason slowed his pace.His eyes narrowed slightly.Somet

  • The True Heiress, His Worst Nightmare   Chapter 161

    Lauren sat comfortably at the head of a polished conference table inside a private room. The curtains remained tightly drawn, shutting out every view from outside. Only three people occupied the room.Lauren and two men.Their expressions carried the confidence of people who had invested too much to tolerate failure. One of the men leaned back in his chair with a satisfied smile. "I have to admit, you've exceeded our expectations." The man said, nodding.Lauren calmly folded her hands together. "I simply did what I was asked to do." She replied with quiet confidence.The second man chuckled softly. "No. You did far more than that." He said as he reached for one of the reports lying on the table. He tapped the document lightly with his finger. "Ecofel's public image has become increasingly unstable. Their investors have started asking questions. Their competitors have become bolder. Even the media is beginning to follow every little controversy surrounding them."Lauren's lips curve

  • The True Heiress, His Worst Nightmare   Chapter 160: The Confrontation

    Curtis slowly opened the door, tiptoeing inside and finding his way upstairs through the darkened room. It was about 10:46 p.m. by the time he arrived home, and he was wishing he didn't meet Tessa awake because he knew it was going to be a heavy fight.Before he could reach the staircase, the light quickly turned on."Where are you coming from?"Curtis instantly shivered as he turned sharply toward the voice. He almost lost his footing before quickly steadying himself. His heart skipped violently against his chest. There on the couch was Tessa.She wasn't sitting lazily as though she had been watching television. She sat upright, both hands resting on her knees, her posture stiff from hours of waiting. Her eyes were swollen with exhaustion, yet they remained painfully alert. It was obvious she had been sitting there for a very long time, refusing to leave the living room until he returned.Curtis swallowed quietly.Every excuse he had rehearsed during the drive home suddenly disa

    "I... I guess this is where we say goodnight." Curtis said as he reached Lauren's apartment gate."What?" Lauren snapped, turning to his side. "Nah. You wouldn't do that. Remember you promised to have dinner with me the other day.""I know." He said. "I remember, but it's kinda late now for that. Maybe some other time."His hands tightened on the wheel."I refuse." She persisted, her voice sounding like she was going to cry. "Come on, Curtis. At least do this for old times sake. It's just dinner."Curtis stared at her for a moment. The request sounded harmless enough. A simple dinner. Nothing more. Yet he could not explain why a strange feeling continued to linger in the back of his mind. Ever since Lauren returned to the business world, she had appeared different. He had dismissed Tessa's concerns repeatedly, convincing himself that Lauren was simply rebuilding her life after prison.Now, sitting outside her apartment, he wondered if things were truly that simple.He rubbed a hand

  • The True Heiress, His Worst Nightmare   Chapter 158: Dangerous Distractions

    One evening, Curtis sat comfortably beside Tessa on the couch while a television program played quietly before them. It had been days neither of them was discussing Ecofel's problems, Crown Aurora's sudden rise, or the growing tension surrounding Lauren's increasingly aggressive competition. The atmosphere inside the living room felt peaceful, something both of them desperately needed after weeks of stress.Tessa rested comfortably against him while scrolling through messages on her phone from several department heads who were still trying to recover from the recent project disaster. Though she was physically present, part of her mind remained occupied with business concerns. Ecofel was gradually stabilizing, but the wounds caused by the leaked information had not completely healed.Curtis, meanwhile, appeared distracted.He had barely paid attention to the television since they sat down.His thoughts had wandered several times throughout the evening.That alone was unusual.Norma

    Tessa started clapping.The sound came out slow and measured, each clap deliberate, echoing lightly against the walls of the conference room. The applause wasn't born from admiration, nor was it polite acknowledgment. It was something else entirely; sharp, pointed, almost mocking in the way it cu

  • The True Heiress, His Worst Nightmare   Chapter 43: Lies on Display

    “So you’re saying that I was the one who ordered you to steal the designs from Lauren?” Tessa asked between gritted teeth, her voice low but trembling with restrained fury. “Is that it?”Before anyone could respond, she slammed her hand hard against the table. The sharp sound echoed through the co

    "Ms. Dean," Mr. Luther continued, his tone no longer carrying the earlier admiration but instead laced with clear displeasure, "I think the company has no need for someone like that."The words fell heavily into the room, and for a brief moment, no one moved. The air itself seemed to hold still, w

  • The True Heiress, His Worst Nightmare   Chapter 41: Stolen Brilliance

    Sandra leaned closer to Tessa, her shoulder almost brushing against hers as she tilted her head slightly to conceal her words. “Isn’t this the design draft that you gave to me?” she whispered, her voice tight with unease. “Why is it now Lauren’s?”Tessa's eyes stayed on the screen, steady and focu
