Kimberly stepped out of the car, her long blonde hair fell behind beautifully as She smiled proudly as she gazed at the breathtaking view of her fiancé's beautifully decorated villa. The sparkling fountain, and beautiful architecture impressed her. He'd even made the place more fine after she'd given it to him.
As the chauffeur drove off to park the car, Kimberly's eyes lingered on the villa's grand entrance. She adjusted her silver necklace and checked her makeup subtle and elegant, complimenting her porcelain skin and bright blue eyes.
Her stunning blue designer dress hugged her curves perfectly, its intricate lace and beading sparkling in the fading light. She felt like a princess, and her heart danced with excitement.
Dave, her fiancé, had clearly gone the extra mile to prepare a nice evening. The thought sent butterflies dancing in her stomach.
A maid greeted Kimberly at the entrance and led her through the villa's corridors to the elegantly set dining area. Dave stood waiting calmly with with his demeanor as cold as ever.
As she entered, Dave's piercing gaze locked onto hers, his expression unreadable behind his usual cold aura. Kimberly noticed admiration dancing in his eyes.
"You indeed went extra miles to look beautiful for today's occasion, I must say," Dave commented, his deep voice low and smooth.
He walked towards her, his long strides devouring the distance. "Come here," he said simply, extending a hand.
Kimberly's cheeks flushed as she took his hand, her blush deepening. Dave's eyes crinkled at the corners, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.
"Thank you," Kimberly whispered, her voice barely audible over the pounding of her heart.
Dave's gaze held hers, his eyes burning with an intensity that left her breathless. For a moment, the world around them melted away, leaving only the two of them, suspended in time.
Dave guided Kimberly to a chair opposite his, his grip firm but polite. As she sat, he heaved a sigh, his expression still unreadable.
Kimberly, still radiant with excitement, leaned forward to kiss his cheek. But Dave dodged her affection, his eyes flashing with annoyance. Without a word, he walked over to his seat, leaving Kimberly speechless, heartbroken, and embarrassed.
Her face turned crimson as she struggled to comprehend his sudden coldness.
"Dave, this place is lov—" she began, attempting to break the awkward silence.
But Dave raised his hand, his palm facing her, and cut her off. "Keep quiet, will you? You're too loud it's actually irritating."
Kimberly's eyes widened in shock. A deep frown etched itself on her face.
"What's wrong? Have I offended you in any—" she tried to ask, but Dave's glare silenced her.
He rose from his seat, his eyes blazing with intensity. "I dare you to speak once more, and I promise you'll never be able to use that tongue again!"
Kimberly's mind reeled, her thoughts paralyzed by fear.
Before she could process his threat, a woman with short, dark hair walked into the room, carrying a document holder. Her striking red dress hugged her curves, accentuating her tall, athletic build. The dress's design and bold color commanded attention.
It was Alisa, Kimberly's best friend – or so she thought.
Alisa's gaze locked onto Kimberly, her eyes blazing with hatred. "Baby boo, what's this peasant doing on my seat? Haven't you broken the news to her yet? The way she's looking at me now, I feel like landing blows on her face."
Alisa's grin was devilish as she approached Kimberly.
"Get up," Alisa ordered, her voice dripping with disdain.
Kimberly's stomach churned, her mind racing with questions. What was happening? Why was Alisa acting this way? And what news was she talking about? Baby boo?"
As she stood, her legs shook a little. The room seemed to spin, as her heart raced.
Dave's expression remained impassive, his eyes never leaving Kimberly's face. "It's time you knew the truth," he said, his voice devoid of emotion.
Kimberly's heart sank, a sense of fear settling in. What truth? And why did it feel like her world was crumbling around her?
Kimberly's eyes widened in disbelief as Dave's words rang in her ears "You are no longer the owner of your properties, Kimberly Harrison. For you have relinquished all your properties to me."
Her mind went in total Chaos, struggling to comprehend the enormity of his statement. Relinquished her properties? How was that possible?
Dave's expression remained cold, unyielding. "Now, I forbid you to ever come closer to any of my properties. If you do, you'll end up in jail."
Kimberly's heart shattere as she spoke. She giggled softly, hoping it was all a cruel joke. "Is this a joke?" she asked.
She grinned and rolled her eyes, attempting to hide her growing unease. "Guys, you can stop now." Her chuckle sounded forced, playful.
"You just find it fun to pull legs, don't you?" She adjusted her hair, trying to maintain a facade of calmness.
But as she attempted to sit back down, Alisa pushed her forcefully. Kimberly landed on her butt with a thud, the air knocked out of her lungs.
The room fell silent, except for Alisa's mocking laughter. Dave's gaze never wavered, his eyes cold and detached.
"Get out," Dave said, his voice devoid of emotion. "You're no longer welcome here."
Kimberly scrambled to her feet, her face burning with humiliation and shock. Her eyes darted between Dave and Alisa, searching for answers.
How could her best friend and fiancé betray her like this? What had she done to deserve such cruelty?
"Explain," she whispered, her voice barely audible. But Dave turned away, dismissing her. Alisa's smirk grew wider, her eyes flashing with triumph.
"You signed the papers, Kimberly," Alisa said, her voice dripping with malice. "You relinquished everything. You're nothing now."
Kimberly Harrison's life changed when her father passed away during her final year of medical school. The grief was overwhelming, but it also brought her immense wealth.
Upon checking the will, Kimberly was stunned to discover she had inherited the majority of her father's properties, including lucrative businesses, real estate, and investments. This unexpected windfall created tension within her family.
Her two elder brothers, Alexander and Gabriel, and younger brother, Benjamin, had always been close. They felt cheated, believing their father's wealth should have been divided equally.
The distance between Kimberly and her siblings grew wider, fueled by anger, jealousy, and misunderstandings. Her brothers began to distance themselves, their once strong bond was destroyed.
It was during this dark period that Dave Jolson entered Kimberly's life. Alisa, her best friend, had introduced them, and Dave's charming, affectionate nature provided comfort to Kimberly's grief-stricken heart.
For two years, Dave showered her with love, warmth, and kindness . She fell head over heels for him instantly. Kimberly thought she had found her rock, her partner in every sense.
But now, as she stood in Dave's luxurious villa, which she had given to him, facing his cold, disdainful gaze, her chest tightened. "What have I done wrong?" she whispered, a tear escaping her eye.
Her chest felt heavy, as if weighed down by the crushing reality. Dave's betrayal, with her siblings' hatred, left her feeling isolated and weakened.
"Was it all a lie?" she wondered, her mind reeling with memories of their time together. "Did you ever truly love me?"
Alisa's mocking laughter echoed in her mind, a harsh reminder of her friend's betrayal. Kimberly's eyes locked onto Dave's, searching for answers, but his expression remained unyielding.
The silence between them grew thicker, heavier, until Dave's words cut through the air once more: "Get out, Kimberly. You're no longer welcome here."
Kimberly's trust in Dave had been absolute. She had blindly entrusted him with her life, her love, and her fortune. In her hopes of building a future together, she had transferred most of her properties to him, believing their love would last forever.
Now, as she stood in Dave's villa, surrounded by the reality of his betrayal, Kimberly felt like she'd been punched in the gut.
Alisa's smile grew wider as she removed documents from her file bag. "Don't be too surprised, my love. You were head over heels, and I honestly wouldn't blame you. My boyfriend, and the father of my unborn child, is the most handsome and charming-looking hottie in the entire world."
Alisa's words dripped with malice, her eyes gleaming with triumph. She dropped the papers, and they scattered around Kimberly like confetti.
Kimberly picked up one, her eyes scanning the document. It was a transfer of ownership, signed and dated. Her properties, now in Dave's name.
Suddenly, something cold and wet splashed over her head. Alisa had dumped a glass of wine on her, the liquid soaking through Kimberly's hair and designer dress.
Alisa's grin spread across her face, her laughter echoing through the room. "You're nothing now, Kimberly. Just a foolish, lovesick girl who gave away everything." She sneered.
The wine stained Kimberly's dress. She felt humiliated, betrayed, and devastated. Her world had been turned upside down.
Dave remained silent, his expression unchanging. His eyes never left Kimberly's face, but his gaze held no sympathy, no regret.
Kimberly's heart shattered into a million pieces. She had trusted him with everything, and this was how he repaid her?
The papers scattered around her seemed to mock her, a harsh reminder of her foolishness. Kimberly's eyes locked onto Dave's, her voice barely above a whisper.
Kimberly's body shook as tears streamed down her cheeks. "Please tell me this is some sort of joke," she begged, her voice cracking with desperation. "I can't handle this heartache. I... I don't deserve this."
Her cries intensified, frustration and pain pouring out. "All I ever wanted was to feel loved and cared for. And at the end of the day, all I got was sheer deceit?"
Dave's expression turned annoyed, his eyes rolling in irritation. "Please stop making a fool of yourself and leave. You're ruining our date. I only invited you here to give you the news."
He stood up, walked over to Alisa, and possessively placed his hand on her hip. Drawing her close, he placed a kiss on her lips, savoring her greedily.
Kimberly's heart felt like it had been stabbed. The truth hit her like a ton of bricks: she had been used.
'So I was used by my best friend?" she thought, her mind reeling. "All in the name of power? She tricked me into falling for her boyfriend, and now I'm all alone.'
Memories of her siblings' hatred flashed before her eyes. They had left her without looking back, fueled by resentment over their father's will.
Dave pulled away from the kiss, Alisa's face flushing bright red. "Babe, I can't stand her presence. It's irritating. Let's have the guards throw her out now."
Dave gestured for the guards to hold on, a sly grin spreading across his face. "Babe, I have a surprise for your friend," he said, his eyes glinting with amusement.
Kimberly's confusion deepened as she struggled to comprehend the unfolding scene.
Suddenly, the door swung open, and a tall, handsome man walked in. His neatly cut blonde hair framed his chiseled features, and his piercing blue eyes exuded confidence.
Alexander, Kimberly's elder brother, entered the room with a bright smile, his calm demeanor commanding attention. He was dressed in a tailored dark suit, accentuating his broad shoulders and lean physique.
Kimberly's eyes widened in shock as she took in her brother's sudden appearance. "Alexander?" she whispered, her voice barely audible.
Alexander's gaze locked onto Kimberly's, his expression unreadable. His eyes seemed to hold a hint of apology, but his smile remained.
Dave's grin grew wider. "I think you'll find this reunion quite... enlightening, Kimberly."Alisa's eyes sparkled with excitement, her hand clinging to Dave's arm. " Oh, babe! Just see the look on her face, she looks so dumb."
"Alexander, what's going on?" Kimberly asked, her voice shaking. Alexander's smile didn't waver as he spoke, "Hello, Kimberly. It's been a while."
His calm tone belied the tension in the air, and Kimberly's confusion deepened.
Dave's cold face twisted into an evil smirk as he gazed at Alexander Harrison, the mastermind behind the intricate web of deceit. Alexander, Kimberly's brother, stood tall, his eyes gleaming with triumph.
Kimberly's mind reeled as she stared at her brother, her thoughts racing to connect the dots.
"Alexander, what's going on?" she whispered, her voice trembling.
Alexander's smile grew wider, his eyes flashing with amusement.
"You... you're behind all this?" she stammered, her gaze darting between Alexander and Dave.
Alexander chuckled, his expression cold and calculating. "I've been planning this for years, Kimberly. Father's will was just the beginning."
Alexander's resentment toward her, Dave's sudden appearance in her life, Alisa's betrayal, The transfer of properties. It all led back to Alexander.
Kimberly's eyes filled with tears as she felt the weight of her brother's treachery.
"You used me," she whispered, her voice cracking. "You used me to get to Father's fortune."
Alexander shrugged. "You were always so gullible, Kimberly. It was almost too easy."
Dave chuckled, his eyes gleaming with admiration. "You're a genius, Alexander. I couldn't have done it without you."
Alisa snuggled closer to Dave, her eyes flashing with excitement. " OMG babe she's irritating me more. Just look at her ugly face, urgh"
Kimberly's world crumbled around her. Her brother had orchestrated her downfall.
"How could you, Alexander?" she asked, her voice barely audible.
Alexander's smile faded, replaced by a cold stare.
"Because, the property was never yours in the first place it should have been distributed equally, but I'm sure you had father transfer it all to you. It was time someone took what was rightfully mine." Kimberly thought he sounded stupid.
The room fell silent, the only sound Kimberly's ragged breathing. Dave snapped his fingers and soon two guards walk closer towards Kimberly. " Throw her out, she's beginning to stink up this place."
