**Zelena\u2019s POV:**<\/p>\n
The atmosphere in the room was thick with tension, a palpable pressure emanating from Ruth that made even my wolf instinctively want to retreat, to hide away from the storm brewing in her eyes. It was as if a dark cloud loomed above us, threatening to unleash its fury at any moment.<\/p>\n
Yet, as I thought of Deanna, that fear was swiftly crushed beneath the weight of my burning hatred. The thought of her smug face made my blood boil, igniting a fierce determination within me.<\/p>\n
\u201cI need your help,\u201d I stated, my voice steady despite the chaos swirling around us. \u201cAs long as you back me up, I can ensure Deanna is kicked out of Mr. Eaton\u2019s life for good. She won\u2019t be able to cause you any trouble ever again.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ruth paused, her brow furrowing as she considered my words. Then, she exchanged a meaningful glance with Alina, who stood silently by her side, her expression unreadable.<\/p>\n
Without missing a beat, Alina waved the house staff out of the room, her authoritative gesture clearing the space of any distractions.<\/p>\n
Ruth\u2019s lips curled into a sly smile as she beckoned me closer. \u201cI enjoy conversing with intelligent individuals. Come here,\u201d she said, her tone surprisingly inviting.<\/p>\n
A soft sigh escaped my lips, a mixture of relief and trepidation flooding my senses. At least she was willing to listen to what I had to say.<\/p>\n
Taking a step forward, I leaned in closer, lowering my voice to a conspiratorial whisper as I laid out my plan piece by piece. Each detail was crafted with precision, my heart racing as I spoke.<\/p>\n
When I finally finished, I stepped back, allowing the weight of my words to settle in the air between us.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo matter how this unfolds, I hope you can provide me with some funds. I need to leave Nordvale with my family,\u201d I added, my voice barely above a murmur.<\/p>\n
I recalled the last time I had dealt with Deanna, how I had drugged her and left her in Mason\u2019s bed, a reckless decision I had made in a moment of desperation. I had never anticipated that someone would swoop in and rescue her from my clutches.<\/p>\n
All that effort, all that planning, had been for nothing! And soon after, Mason\u2019s people had come after me, followed closely by Luis\u2019s crew. Each day felt like a descent into hell, a struggle against the inevitable.<\/p>\n
I had never imagined that I would find myself scurrying like a rat, hunted down by everyone I had once considered allies.<\/p>\n
Fine. If my life was already in ruins, then I would make sure no one else could find peace either.<\/p>\n
\u2014<\/p>\n
**Deanna\u2019s POV:**<\/p>\n
Inside the conference room, I was meticulously reviewing the retail budget for the upcoming quarter with the senior executives. The figures danced in front of my eyes, each number a testament to our hard work and dedication.<\/p>\n
Suddenly, a light knock on the door shattered the focused atmosphere, and my assistant, Ferris Jacobs, burst in, his urgency palpable and disruptive.<\/p>\n
The online backlash was relentless, tearing apart both the mall\u2019s reputation and my own.<\/p>\n
An executive slammed his hand on the table in frustration. \u201cThis is obviously fake. There\u2019s no way Ms. Wiley is pregnant!\u201d<\/p>\n
Others quickly echoed his sentiments, their voices rising in a chorus of disbelief.<\/p>\n
\u201cExactly! Ms. Wiley doesn\u2019t even have a mate. This is clearly a competitor trying to drag us down with these ridiculous rumors!\u201d<\/p>\n
But then, from the far corner of the room, a voice cut through the noise. \u201cBut the hospital report has Ms. Wiley\u2019s name on it. And the photos\u2026 they look just like her. It\u2019s hard to believe they\u2019re fabricated.\u201d<\/p>\n
A heavy silence enveloped the room as every gaze turned to me, curiosity and suspicion mingling in the air.<\/p>\n
I had always known that revealing my pregnancy would lead to complications someday; I had mentally prepared myself for the fallout. But never in my wildest dreams did I imagine someone would twist it into a scandal, framing me as the villain who destroyed a marriage and allowing it to explode across the internet.<\/p>\n
Someone was orchestrating this chaos, and I could feel the walls closing in.<\/p>\n
Steeling myself, I took a deep breath and spoke with a calm authority I didn\u2019t quite feel. \u201cI will provide everyone with an explanation for this. Ms. Jimenez from PR, please come to my office.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2385","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2385","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2385"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
