Marrying My Father’s Enemy

Eira Hax, the daughter of a once-wealthy heiress, has spent her entire life in the shadows. Twenty-two years ago, her mother, a kind-hearted but naive woman, was deceived by her husband, a ruthless businessman. He stole her entire fortune and framed her for a crime, sending her to prison, unaware that she was pregnant and secretly battling terminal cancer. Eira’s mother died alone behind bars, but not before giving birth to Eira, entrusting her with a burning desire for revenge. Now, two decades later, Eira returns with one goal: to destroy the man who ruined her mother’s life—her own father. To do so, she strategically marries his most powerful rival, Callian Reed, a man as dangerous as he is influential. Together, they plot to destroy her father’s empire, piece by piece. But as Eira is pulled deeper into a world of business, power and revenge, she’s forced to confront her own problems and decide just how far she’s willing to go to avenge her mother. “I’m not your enemy, darling…you should know that by now.” “Callian, everything you do is not written in our contract. Why are you breaking it?” “The more I learn about you, the more I hate everyone who hurt you. So please, Eira, let me get rid of them for you.”

My Poor Daughter

Chapter 49: My Poor Daughter

Beatrice paced back and forth across her room, her fingers tugged anxiously at her nails. 

She couldn't sit still, in her mind, she was racing with so many things. 

She glanced at the clock, then at the door.

Just then, her maid entered quietly. "Madam, someone's waiting for you outside."

Beatrice's head snapped up. "Where?"

"By the garden," the maid replied.

Without another word, Beatrice hurried past her, slipping through the back door and moving quickly through the garden. 

She saw the man standing near a sleek, black car, he was watching her approach.

From an upstairs window, Henry glanced out, noticing her rushing toward the car. 

His eyes narrowed slightly as he saw her slip inside, but with his lawyers waiting, he let it go. 

They were discussing a lawsuit against Eira for defamation. It was all he could think about at the moment.
