CHAPTER 50
SUZANNE’S POV
In the midst of what seemed like a routine business gathering, Arla’s calculated maneuvering took me by surprise. Her cunning plan unfolded seamlessly, orchestrating a sequence of events that would ultimately lead to my downfall.
After we were done at the restaurant, I had no idea what was going with me. Initially, Sam and I had bribed the hotel managers to
make sure that when he would see Aria drugged, then he would make sure she reached the hotel room where Sam would have sex
with her.
However, I did not know why this stupid manager took me instead. Did he get paid a hefty amount to get me trapped instead of Aria? I wondered who paid him to change our plan.
What transpired in the dimly lit hotel room was a blur of regret. I had had sex before with that pervert Sam, but that was the
worst experience I had ever had. I wanted Aria to experience the same, especially when the oldie was drunk. That was why I had spiked his drink as well.
Unfortunately, the plan backfired. This old fuck attacked me. What I remembered that time was that I was trying to escape, but
the hotel room was locked from outside. Who must have conspired against me? Aria only of course!
This morning, I got shocked on seeing my neck covered with hickeys. That Sam has gnawed me like anything. Now I have to wear a scarf to hide them, since I am getting late for office and have no time to spend removing them one by one. As I got to the office, I
confront Aria.
I see the madam sitting in that that with an air of superiority and my blood boils. Still, I try to keep my calm. Then I muster my courage to question her about yesterday.

“Why did you leave the meeting yesterday?”
Aria rolls her eyes! How dare site?
“That was a useless meeting and I find it pointless to even get involved with this company.”
Yes, I know that. The aim was only to get her laid and fired today. But my plan failed miserably.
I confront her, recounting the significant business deal that nearly materialized in her absence, hoping to evoke a semblance of acknowledgement or perhaps even a hint of regret. Yet, her response is anything but expected.
With a brazen disregard for the gravity of the situation, she chuckles derisively, her laughter cutting through the tension like a knife. In that moment, her mockery becomes a bitter pill to swallow, fueling the flames of my frustration and igniting a simmering rage within me.
How dare she trivialize the hard–won successes and relentless efforts that I have poured into this venture? As her mocking Laughter echoes in the air, I feel a surge of indignation rising within me, propelling me towards the edge of my patience.

The sight of her victorious smirk ignites a primal rage within me, a visceral urge to lash out and reclaim the upper hand. With every ounce of restraint, I struggle to contain the seething fury that threatens to consume me whole.
The temptation to succumb to violence looms ominously, as her triumph feels like a personal affront, a mockery of my own
aspirations and ambitions. In that moment, the line between rationality and madness blurs, as I fight the overwhelming urge to
silence her smug superiority once and for all
But deep down, I know that succumbing to such base impulses would only serve to validate her dominance, to concede defeat in the face of her relentless conquest. Suddenly, words that I should not be speaking come out of my mouth.
“If you had stayed, my plan would have ”
1 stop right there. She is smart and she smirks, waiting for me to spill the beans, as if she knows something.
“Forget it!”
I quickly say and huff. I turn my back on her and stride off with resentment overpowering me. I will surely get even for how I suffered last night. I got raped by Sam and yet, I couldn’t report the matter.
Thankfully, as I rush out, Aria makes no effort in stopping me, perhaps because she knows she won and I lost.
Once I am out of her office, I think that I really need help to get her out of this company as soon as possible. She has started becoming a nuisance. Then, the person I need to turn to is definitely Mr. Levis, our old CEO.
Without wasting any more time, I head to his office. He is pretty shocked to see me in a dilapidated state in the morning. When he asks me about the issue I am facing, I instantly open up to him.
I tell him how Aria got into the company and that she is using her illicit relationship with Neal to gain position and power, planning to throw all of us out. As Mr. Levis feels threatened by Aria too, he promises me that he will look into the matter immediately.
“I won’t let her succeed
