Chapter 39 " Tommy , tell me the truth , if you had known my sister was the one that wrote that proposal , would you have wanted to divorce her ? " Thomas's face suddenly fell , he loved Danielle more than anyone else , but the position was owed to him . Without responding , she already knew the answer . Wiping her eyes , Danielle let out a low laugh . " That's what I thought . What was I supposed to do Tommy , be your permanent mistress ? Marry someone else? Tell me ! " Thomas knew Danielle was right , if it met securing that deal ; he would have gladly stayed married to Rabena and played the dutiful husband . What would his plans have been for Danielle then ? Thomas wasn't sure , besides , none of that mattered now , all that mattered was him pleasing Michales finance and securing that deal . He wasn't about to let his smug cousin take his position ! " None of that matters right now Danielle . The focus right now is securing the contract , help me do this and we can still have our happily ever after . " Danielle's eyes beamed with joy , she'd still had a chance at her happily ever after with Thomas , all she had to do was play the role she'd known so well . The role of a loving sister . Just then , the rest of the Crests walked into the room . Amber the first to speak . " Well , I most certainly hope you've calmed down and apologized to my daughter . " Amber sneered as she saw the two of them sitting together . Before he could answer , Danielle grabbed his arm . " Mother that's enough . Tommy and I have made up ! The most important thing tonight is making sure we all secure that MGT deal . " Darius scoffed , no longer was he thrilled about the idea of Thomas and Danielle being together . All that week , he couldn't help but think about the pain and anguish this family had caused Rabena , " And how exactly do you plan on doing that ? " . " We're going to go with Danielle's plan and say Rabena is sick . " Daniel looked at Thoams in disbelief , surly he didn't think Chairman Michaels would fall for something like that . " You don't really think that's going to work ? " Thomas glared at Daniel and Dafius . ' What the hell is wrong with these two ! Did the miss the part about Crest Real Estate being a part of the deal ? ' Thomas began to get annoyed , usually the only brother that gave him a hard time was Dampon . Suddenly , Davis spoke up . " We don't have a choice Dantel and Dartus . The market has been staggered , a deal like this could be worth 1/2 Chapter 39 billions if he expands throughout the entire continent . We have to do this . " Darius looked slightly disgusted at his father , suddenly those words from Damon played in his mind . ' I'll never respect a man that didn't protect his own daughter . ' " And if Rabena finds out we've been lying not only on her name but on her health ? " Amber let out a loud scoff , who the hell cared about that nobody ! Before she could answer , Davis responded . " We'll find a way to make it up to her , right now this is more important . " Davis looked directly at Amber as if to say , ' stay quiet if you want them to help . ' Rolling her eyes , she sat on the sofa next to Danielle . Thomas began to go over the plan for the evening , by the time he was finished , it a little after 1pm . Standing up to leave , he gave one more final walk through . " Alright , so that's the whole plan , if we all stick to same story that Rabena is sick with pneumonia and could not make this evening , we should be fine with explaining why she isn't there . As long as everyone plays the role of a loving and concerned family , we should be good . " Thoams made sure to look directly at Amber , it was no secret she hated the girl the most , he would need her to at least pretend to care . " Amber , just pretend it's Dani . " With that , Thoams left the mansion leaving everyone speechless . Chapter Comments 61 POST COMMENT NOW SHARE 2/2
