“Hey, why so lule on your plate?” Christian glanced at Lea’s half–eaten meal.
Lea, still growing needed her fuel, after all
But seeing her putting in so much effort made Christian feel warm inside. “Hey, Melissa, makesome more snacks for her, will yar
“Okay, sir” Melissa nodded.
Lea walked into her room and locked the door. She headed straight for her desk, turned on thecomputer, and started typing around for a bunch of IP addresses. Then, she hopped on someforeign websites and posted Helen’s video.
Just a few days ago, when Shawn and Chandler confessed about Helen, Lea had tried uploadingthe videos using several accounts, only to have them swiftly taken down.
It was frustrating – all her efforts seemed to be in vain. But this time, she had a plan. Lea hadwritten a program to counteract any attempts to delete the videos. If they wanted them gone, they’dhave to really sweat for it
Simultaneously, she sent a data packet to several email addresses through foreign websites
The data contained evidence collected since Shawn and Chandler’s confession. And those twowere right at the top of her list. She wanted them

With one last click, Lea’s hand left the keyboard, and a cold grin spread across her face. ‘Matilda,wait and see!
Over at the Berry Group HQ, in the Vice President’s Office, Matilda had been kicked out before, butstock problems brought her back in. She’d been grinding since morning, and now it was almostdusk.
Luckily, the stock prices had leveled out and were even bouncing back, better than she’d hoped.
Luckily, the stock prices had settled and were even on the upswing, better than she’d hoped. In theafternoon, Christian was all smiles and his attitude toward her did a complete 150, so she smoothedthings over with him.
Inside and out, everything finally settled down.
Matilda knew Nixon was a real lifesaver. He always came through when it really counted, unlikeEwan
Thinking about Ewan just pissed her off. She’d asked him for 200 million bucks, but hadn’t seen adime
“What’s up with that lover?” she snapped

Max, who was working nearby, jumped before finally got the question. “Um… Mr. Berry, he’s beenstuck in the suburbs since last night…”
Since they found out about his affair with Janice, they’d been keeping tabs on him.
Her face soured.
Helen was still locked up at the police station, and Berry Group’s stock was about to hit rockbottom. And here was Christian, the CEO and dad of the kid, just ignoring it all to chall with his sidechick.

“Round up some people, get a car ready, we’re heading to the suburbs!” Matilda commanded.
At the suburban villas, Janice was rocking a light pink silk nightie, clutching her waist with one handand Ewan’s arm with the other, leading him

Before, Janice used to fear Matilda- a woman with hefty connections and a reputation for being Lifesentence for murder. Maulda’s power seemed diminished
For the Berry family, without another hear, the unborn child Janice was carrying represented theironly hope.
Maulda is finished, Janice thought, relishing the idea of taking her place and watching her beg
It was a liberating thought. If it weren’t for Matilila, Janice thought she wouldn’t have to hide herpregnancy in this deserted suburb, afraid to be

“Ive been here with you all day and night, but I’ve got things to sort out back home. Ewan said.
If the Berry family went belly–up, he’d be out of cash too, which was a big deal for him
“Matilda’s been causing trouble. I’m worried you’ll be stressed when you get back home,” Janicesaid, trying to calm Ewan down
“Matilda’s got that fancy family background. But who knows what kind of upbringing Helen’s had inthe Fraley family to end up this way,” Janice added, feeling pretty high and mighty compared toMatilda
“Don’t sweat it too much. Just focus on looking after the baby,” Ewan replied.
He had a burning resentment towards Matilda, but Helen was still his daughter. Hearing this didn’tsit right with him.
“Take it easy. We’ve got a little guy on the way. He’s a boy. Take good care of him, and he’ll carryon the Berry family name” Janice reassured him, her hand resting gently on his chest.
“Christian’s probably furing. He’s not getting any younger, you know. You should talk to him, let himknow about our son. It’ll make him happy.” she suggested, confident that once Christian knew abouttheir grandson, she’d be welcomed into the Berry family, kicking Matilda out
“Alright, when you head back, replace Christian and let him know, okay?” she finished, reaching for thedoor handle.
“Argh!” As soon as the door swung open, Janice let out a surprised scream and stumbledbackward. Ewan quickly rushed to her aid, helping her regain her balance.
Standing in the doorway was Matilda.
She was decked out in a sleek black dress, her hair perfectly coiffed, ruby earrings glinting, lipspainted dark, and her eyes blazing with anger like sharp knives
Behand her loomed five bodyguards, along with a driver and a handful of stern–looking secretaries,all dressed in black and radiating an air of intimidation.
Even Ewan was taken aback by the sight
“Get that tramp out” Matilda gritted her teeth, her voice full of rage
Two of the bodyguards moved in fast, one on each side of Janice, grabbing her and starting tousher her out.
“What are you doing? Let me go!” she yelled
“What the hell do you think y
you’re doing?! Lai !
es her go, damn it! She’s pregnant Ewan protested, his face flushing with anxiety.
But before he could even take a step forward, two other bodyguards stepped in, blocking his path,clearly wouldn’t hesitate to intervene if he tried anything.
Following Matilda’s orders like robots, they brought Janice right up to her.
“Matilda, you can’t just bust into someone’s house like this! I’ll sue…….” Janice started, her voiceshaky with fear and anger.
Before she could finish, Matilda smacked Janice hard across the face, Janice’s head tilted to theside, her cheek swelling with red finger marks, blood trickling from the corner of her mouth
Janice hesitated for a second, then straightened up, her voice firm despite the pain. “Hitting so
someone is illegal”
Matilda slapped Janice again, just as hard, making her own palm go red, she didn’t even play by therules. ‘So just because being a homewrecker isn’t illegal, she thinks she’s entitled? she thought indisdain.
Not satisfied just being the other woman, Janice now wanted Ewan to persuade Christian towelcome her and her unborn child into the Berry family, effectively replacing Matikla and Helen.
And she dares to question our family values? Th

place? Matilda thogubt.
Remembering how terrified Helen had been the last time she learned about Janice and the baby,Matilda boiled with rage.
“Beat her until she lost the babyť“ Matilda snapped.
Janice’s face went pale at her words, and she panicked.
“No, please don’t she begged desperately
But before she could say another word, the bodyguard grabbed her and slammed her to theground, her stomach taking the hit. Pain shot through her throat as she cried out
