Darys sorted out a laugh

***** you? A pre schwuchert whe Vend of a man get bater oping to be grandfather when he loses a fight? what are you go tell him? That you got beat up by the grea

The man cowered when Dary's raised her arm

Darya clicked her tongue. Lov

When she spotted the man reaching inside his jacket, she broke his wrist.

He screamed like a little girl

The commotion was starting to draw a crowd.

The bar's manager made a belated appearance and tried to mediate

"At the other end of the hallway, hidden behind a huge potted fern, a man raised

his Nikon DSLX and kept

clicking away.

He had the foresight to turn the flashlight function off.

Once he got enough pictures, he ducked into a utility closet and made a call.

'Mr Mendez, I've got something

Ryan's eyes lit up when he saw the transmitted photos.

As the paparazzo recounted the story, Ryan put together the picture.

"Há! He slapped his thigh, excited. 'I knew the woman was no good! Finally

showed her true colours, didn't she?"

When Felicia called him, Ryan jumped at the chance to dig up dirt on Darya Miller

He didn't like seeing Micah moping over the divorce.

In his view, Micah should never have married that woman in the first place.

After he hung up, Ryan rubbed his palms with gleeful anticipation

Then he got to work.

Once Micah read the news, hopefully, he would finally see the true colours of that woman and forget about her. Ryan carefully selected the photos that showed Darya kicking, punching, then peering down her nose at a man

"Who's the man she was punching?

'Can't see his face clearly in the pics."

'Her new beau?

"Why's she punching him?"

'Lovers' tiff?'

'But the man's on the floor. And he looks to be in pain. She's gone too far.'

'This is domestic violence!'

'Who's the other woman in the pics?'

'Maybe this is a threesome gone wrong.'

"This Darya woman's violent. I wonder if she used to punch Micah.'

'No way!'

'Maybe that's why they got divorced. She's a bully."

'Is anyone else curious about what she's doing at that pub?'

'Probably on the prowl for another rich dude to marry."

'Maybe she made up the story about Micah stepping out on her. I knew it! Micah's

not the cheating type.

Ryan leaned back in his ergonomic chair, a satisfied smile on his face.

The public's reaction was going in the way he wanted.

The twenty thousand dollars he paid to the paparazzo was money well spent.

While Darya's name was tending online with the hashtags 'ExMrsCavanaugh,' 'Golddigger Exposed,' and 'LiarDarya,' she was enjoying a beauty sleep on her swimming pool-sized bed.

When Bianca came banging on her bedroom door at half past five in the morning, Darya had a weird sense of déjà vu.

She tossed aside the covers, padded barefoot to the door, opened it.

'Have you seen the news?' Bianca brandished the tablet in her hand.

'Good morning to you, too.' Darya stifled a yawn.

Bianca grabbed her bestie's shoulders and shook them. 'Wake up! Someone's slinging mud at you!'

Darya fell backwards into bed. 'So?'

Bianca thrust the tablet in front of her face, tapped a finger on the screen. 'Look at

this! They say you beat up some random guy at a pub last night.'

Darya glanced at the photos. 'You and I both know that's not true.'

'But the people online don't.' Bianca was indignant.

She'd been refuting the comments for the past two hours, but her voice was drowned out by the flood of negative opinions on Darya.

'Someone's obviously targeting you.'

Darya took the tablet. 'Hey, I made it to the front page of the Hagen Reporter. Not bad.'

Bianca rolled her eyes. 'As if that's something to be glad about.'

The tabloid website was known for reporting sensationalist, often unverified and sometimes absurd stories.

Darya returned the tablet to her friend. 'Don't worry about it. Some other story will pop up and bump downnoveldrama

this one.'

'Are we just gonna sit back and do nothing?'

Darya knew her friend was genuinely concerned about her. 'How about this? I'll give Bradley Gould a call.'

The CEO of a major entertainment company would know how to manipulate the media machine.

'Fine.'

Darya jumped up from the bed. 'Since you're here, we might as well have breakfast together. Today's your first day at Paragon. Let's start it with a bang.' Bianca cleared her throat. 'Will, ah, will Avery join us for breakfast?'

Darya pinched her friend's cheek. 'Ha, is that why you came to my house at six o'clock in the morning?'

She fake-pouted. 'I thought you were here for me.'

Bianca blushed. 'I was. It's just that... Never mind.'

Darya smiled. 'My dear brother's probably in the gym. Let's go say hi.'

At nine o'clock on the dot, Darya began the Solaro project meeting in Conference

Room Two at the Paragon Group's headquarters building.

She introduced Bianca as het executive assistant.

As Darya briefed the team about the energy company, one of the participants kept

her head down and hid the simmering resentment in her eyes.

Sharon Hoyles, like so many of the female employees at Paragon, used to have a

secret crush on their handsome president.

But that feeling changed in the past week.
