Chapter 4 THE TABLE HAS TURNED

Williams's POV

I stood frozen, my grip tightened around the champagne flute in my hand. My heart pounded against my ribs as I watched mabella disappear through the doors and into darkness. Her final words slicing through me like a finely sharpened dagger.

"Because soon, the only thing you'll be celebrating... Is your downfall." Damnit... It sounds so terrifying recalling those words.

A slow murmur spread through the room. Guests exchanged glances, some smirking behind third crystal glasses, others whispering behind gloved hands. The atmosphere, which had been one of effortless opulence just moment ago, had transformed into something suffocating, charged with unspoken tension.

No amount of champagne has been able to reduce the dryness I feel in my throat. I had planned this night to be flawless display of power, an extravagant declaration of my success, my control. But instead, mabella chose this time to walk in-- uninvited, unstoppable -- and shattered... Infact ruined the illusion in mere minutes.

Mandy's nails dug into my arm, her entire frame trembling with suppressed rage. "Why did you just stand there?" She hissed, her voice sharp and venomous. "You let her humiliate us!"

I blinked, shaking myself from stupor. I turned to face my adorable fiancee, trying to explain the situation to her since it seems she went blank when mabella stepped in. "You think I let her do that?" My expression darkening, my voice low; dangerously so. "Do you think I had a choice?"

Mandy scoffed, flipping her platinum blonde hair over her shoulder. "She's nothing but a bitter ex-wife trying to stay relevant. She doesn't deserve this kind of attention."

I clenched my jaw. That's the problem, isn't it? Mabella isn't trying to stay relevant. She already is. The way she commanded the room, they she spoke with that unshaken confidence --- it wasn't a desperate act of a woman clinging to the past.

It is the power of someone who had risen above it.

"She's different," I muttered under my breath, more to myself than to Mandy.

Mandy's Sharp gaze snapped at me. "What did you just say?"

I ignored her. My mind is already racing. The woman that had walked in tonight wasn't the mabella I had left. That old mabella had been soft, too trusting, too easy to manipulate. She had loved me with foolish, all consuming devotion, giving everything while I had taken until there was nothing left.

And then, when she had nothing more to offer, I had thrown her away.

But tonight, she had come back --- not as a scorned woman, but as something far more dangerous.

More like a woman reborn. Ahh... I feel like my heart is twisting in my chest.

Mandy yanked on my sleeves, drawing me back to consciousness. "This is exactly why I told you we should've made sure she stayed out of our lives," she snapped. "You should've destroyed her completely when you had the chance."

I flinched at the coldness in Mandy's tone. I turned my gaze towards her, finally seeing her in the harsh light of reality -- not as the perfect trophy I had once believed her to be, but as someone bitter, cruel, and calculating.

Why am I even shocked? Years back it was Mandy's idea to collect mabella's rare type of blood and sale under the disguise of my cousin having an accident. Since mabella couldn't read the handwriting on the wall and leave my life.

You can't blame me for honoring my mistress request, she is my love and the one behind my success and million deals.

"Be careful what you say out in the open," I warned her.

"Mabella isn't just nuisance. She's a problem now."

Mandy scoffed, rolling her eyes. "Oh, please. What's the worst she could possibly do? Walk into a few more parties and throw around empty threats?"

I inhaled sharply, running a hand down my face.

Why do I feel terrified?

Could she really destroy what I have managed to build? My empire, my reputation, my business connections...

A cold sweat broke out a long my brow as realization settled over me like a lead weight.

No!!

I won't sit and allow her crumble my world!

I just need to make the right moves. But first off I need to confirm something. I need to find out who she thinks she is? And just how powerful she has become?

****

Mabella's POV

The media frenzy outside the large hall of Sheldon Technology is nothing the the business world had ever seen. Reporters struggle each other, cameras flashing wildly as the city's powerful investors, CEO's and business elite filled the venue.

No one had ever seen the true mastermind behind Sheldon Technology. Except my assistant ofcourse, she has to effectively carry out my orders while I was away. I chuckled

Speculations had run wild for years --- some believed it's an aging tycoon who preferred the shadow than being in the spotlight; others assumed it is a private investment group controlling the empire.

But today, I have the opportunity of putting all speculations to an end.

Hmm... I smiled at myself in the mirror, admiring my elegant black power suit, my long hair spread over my shoulders giving me the absolute poised look I needed. My emerald green eyes burns with quiet fury doing Justice to the fire I feel inside.

I didn't know this is how it feels to be in the spotlight. My grand entrance at my ex husband's engagement party was commanding and fulfilling.

Hmmm... The taste is satisfying...

I can still remember the silence, the gasps and shock on their faces increases my urge for revenge. I'm in deep debt to the media for letting me know about that awful event they wanted to have in secret.

So after divorcing me, Williams still have the gots to go ahead with the marriage plans. Hahaha what a world, you give your all the take you for granted.

Now it's time for Williams to be taken for granted.

"Are you ready ma'am?" Lilian my assistant asked

Sure! Shall we. Standing up, I gestured for us to leave.

The walk to the hall podium from my office was silent.

If I was feeling nervous, I didn't notice because revealing my identity is the stepping stone to bringing ruin to Williams's world.

The podium lights went dimmed, stepping on the podium I exhaled deeply.

I could hear whispers.

"Oh my God.... Is that--?"

"It can't bee---"

"Mabella Green?!"

"How can she be this young?"
