Chapter 209
What!
Jepson’s stomach dropped. He quickly checked Twitter, and sure enough, there it was–Radiant Media had made an official announcement about partnering with Harper His heart sank like a stone in water.
He hadn’t expected Radiant Media to go public with it so soon. No wonder David was furious. “David, hold on–let me explain—”
Davide him off, his voice cold. “Forget it. I’m done listening to your excuses. want to pull my money out. If it weren’t for Harper, there’s no

“If even Harper doesn’t want in, what does that say about the project! I’m telling you, if Harper’s not interested, there’s no way this thing is going to
make money
“And sure. Elaine might not be a megastar, but compared to Miss Yeats and her terrible reputation! I’d take Elaine any day”
Jepson clenched his teeth, wanting to argue, but before he could get another word out, David hung up.
It was clear. David and the other smaller investors had already shifted their focus to Radiant Media and The Sovereign
They were joining forces, hoping to make a quick buck off the project. Even if their cut was small, it was better to stick with the big players than to risk going it alone
“Damn it” Jepson slammed the phone down in frustration. It was obvious–Elaine and her team had purposely leaked Harper’s involvement at the perfect moment. They’d done it to steal the spotlight and grab all the attention.
“These people are so short–sighted. They think Harper is the golden ticket. Wherever he goes, all these investors flock to him like moths to a flame. It’s pathetic.
“Let’s see how much they really make off The Sovereign. I bet those small investors will regret following him in the end.”
Jepson was right. The smaller investors had indeed turned their attention to The Sovereign. Even though Harper was already in, welcoming any other investors who wanted to join.

Bianca stared at her Twitter feed, her face shifting between anger and disbelief.
What really ticked her off was the fact that David, who had once woord her with expensive gifts, was now demanding the purse he’d given her back. What kind of nonsense was that?
She turned to Jepson, a determined look in her eyes. “Don’t worry, I’ll talk to Finley. I’m sure, for my sake, he’ll back us. And once this project takes off, it’s going to make a fortune. I’m totally confident in in,“
Jepson sighed, feeling utterly defeated. Fine, go talk to Finley. I don’t care anymore. Without people like David Johnson, the world will keep Turning just fine.”
“Okay”
Bianca went to find Finley, and as soon as he saw her, his heart ached. Without a moment’s hesitation, he pulled together a large sum of money for

Finley kissed her on the forehead, his voice solt. “No need to thank me.‘
Bianca laid her head
ad on his chest, a sweet smile spreading across her face
When it came to stealing men, Bianca was still the queen of the game.
She believed her ability to capture the attention of men was enough to make Elaine grind her teeth in envy
But what Bianca didn’t realize was that Elaine couldn’t care less about her so–called allure. To Elaine, attracting a crowd of men wasn’t something to be proud of; it was nothing more than flaunting superficial beauty.
What Bianca didn’t understand was that her manipulative behavior, constantly luring men, would only lead her to ruin–not the glamorous life she imagined

Suddenly, Tracy fell deeply wronged. If only Elaine were here, she thought, she wouldn’t be like this. Elaine would have supported her, stood by her side, and condemned Robert’s actions.

Trey felt a sense of relict, rassured that her love and care for Bianca hadn’t been misplaced fler
She had never imagined that the daughter she had raised, and always favored, wouldn’t stand by her. Instead, she would secretly hope for the other woman to take her place as the rightful wife, helping to push her out as the matriarch of the family- without an ounce of gratitude for the woman who had raised her.
Blanca couldn’t shake the bitter resentment she felt after Tracy has advised her to forgive Elaine for revealing her true identity. Despite Tracy’s words of concern. Bianca was convinced her mother still favored her biological daughter. The mire she thought about it, the deeper her anger
