Miguel's anger was clear as he hurriedly dressed, his mind still filled with the events of the night. Betty, on the other hand, moved with a calm and almost satisfied air as she got dressed. The room was tense, the emotional aftermath of their recent encounter hanging in the air.
Miguel struggled with his shirt, his frustration growing as he turned to face Betty. "I can't believe this happened," he said, his voice shaky with anger and regret. "I was drunk, and now I'm stuck with you. I never wanted this."
Betty, seemingly unbothered by his distress, responded with a smirk. "You were the one who started it. And despite everything, I enjoyed it. Honestly, I wouldn't mind having more nights like this with you."
Miguel's anger grew. "You don't understand. I don't like you. There's someone else I'm interested in. This was a mistake, and now you're acting like it was something special."
Betty's confident attitude didn't waver. "You were the one who made the first move, not me. Maybe you should accept your own actions instead of blaming me."
Feeling trapped and furious, Miguel stormed out of the house. The loud bang of the door echoed through the empty space. As he got into his car, he felt the weight of his actions and the possible consequences pressing down on him.
He drove aimlessly, his mind racing with thoughts. He needed to talk to someone to sort out his feelings and deal with the situation. He called his personal assistant, Robert, with a desperate tone. "Robert, I need you to meet me at the restaurant. I need to talk."
Robert, familiar with Miguel's unpredictable behavior and motivated by the promise of extra pay, quickly agreed. He rushed to the restaurant where Miguel was waiting. Miguel poured out his frustration and regret to Robert, his voice strained. He admitted his fears about the situation with Betty and expressed his determination never to drink again. He asked Robert to help him stay accountable. His biggest worry was that his father, Mr. Parkar, might pressure him into marriage if Betty ended up pregnant.

Meanwhile, Mr. Parkar had a very different reaction to the situation with Betty. When he learned about the encounter, he was visibly pleased. He approached Betty with a bright smile, clearly excited about the outcome.
"I hope you're pregnant soon," Mr. Parkar said cheerfully. His words showed his hope and approval. He was eager for the possibility of a grandchild, seeing it as a way to ensure the family's future and strengthen their connections.
Betty, maintaining her usual confidence, smiled back at Mr. Parkar. She welcomed his approval and the potential benefits it might bring.

At the same time, Diana Wolf was dealing with her own anger and frustration. She had just received disappointing news about her plan to handle Audrey. The person she had sent had failed, and Audrey was still alive. This failure pushed Diana to a breaking point.
"I will make sure to get her," Diana said through gritted teeth, her voice cold and determined. "I will get her by any means necessary."
Diana's anger only made her more determined. She focused all her energy on making sure Audrey faced consequences. Her mind was busy with new plans and ideas, her resolve strengthened by the failure of her earlier attempts.
Audrey clung to the hope that the hospital might hold answers. Every day she stayed there, not even going home. Her nights were restless, her days blurred into a continuous cycle of worry and despair. She approached every doctor and nurse she encountered, asking the same question over and over: "Have you found my godmother's body yet?" Each time, the response was the same—a solemn shake of the head and a sympathetic look. "I'm sorry, but the body hasn't been found yet."
The endless waiting was taking its toll on her. After three days of relentless searching and sleepless nights, Rosaline decided enough was enough. She arrived at the hospital, seeing Audrey's pale, exhausted face and knowing she needed to intervene. With a firm but gentle grip, Rosaline guided Audrey out of the hospital and back to her home.
Audrey resisted, her mind clouded with anxiety and fatigue. At home, the maids had prepared a meal for her, but she refused to eat. She was lost in her grief and fear, unable to find comfort in anything. Rosaline sat beside her, her voice calm but resolute. "Audrey, you need to eat and drink. If you want to keep searching for your godmother, you have to be strong. You can't do that if you're collapsing from hunger and exhaustion."
The words hit Audrey like a wake-up call. As much as she wanted to remain in her state of despair, she knew Rosaline was right. She took a few bites and sips, trying to regain some strength. It was a slow process, but she understood she needed to take care of herself to continue the search for her godmother.
A week later, still with no news from the hospital, Audrey faced another major event. It was the day of the big party to announce her project's proposal. Despite her anxiety, Audrey dressed in her best business attire, determined to honor her godmother's memory by moving forward with her life. Rosaline drove her to the venue, offering silent support throughout the ride.
When Audrey arrived, she was met with surprised and curious glances from the crowd. Diana Wolf's eyes widened in shock and irritation upon seeing her. Diana had not expected Audrey to show up after the distressing events involving her godmother. The sight of Audrey only fueled Diana's frustration and anger.
Diana's mind raced with a plan to disrupt Audrey's moment. She quickly contacted the sound manager,
"Hello" she called to him, and he came to her,with that she slipped some amount of money in his palm, instructing him to sabotage Audrey's speech. The idea was to have the microphone fail during Audrey's presentation, causing chaos and embarrassment.
