Chapter 14
In the next few days, James’s Dad called him several times but he didn’t pick his call. Belle visited me once again to invite me to her grand wedding with Jayden. Parker. Her only motive was to show me how close they were with Daniel Parker that he was arranging such a huge banquet for them while he didn’t even attend his son’s wedding. She also claimed that she had invited the biggest business tycoon, the president of JW groups to their wedding, not knowing that James was the president she was talking about.
Soon, it became the headline of several news that the president of JW groups whose name and identity was hidden till now, was going to attend the marriage ceremony of Mr. Daniel Parker‘ s nephew. Paparazzi were excited for the wedding, not for how grand it was going to be, but to finally get the glimpse of a man who had been a mystery to everyone.

Chapter 14
Daniel Parker’s illegitimate son, James, who was known as JW in the business world, was a mystery to everyone but me. I knew who the man was behind his mask. I didn’t ask him about the sensation that was spreading. He didn’t talk about it either.
On Belle’s wedding day, he asked me why I wasn’t getting ready for the wedding.
“I don’t feel like attending it,” I replied flatly. He looked deeply into my eyes before saying, “You should attend it,” He took a pause before continuing, “You should be there to witness your enemy’s downfall.”
I pursed my lips, not knowing what he was up to. He asked me to go to the wedding as he would be late. I understood his point. and went to the banquet hall alone.
The arrangements were very expensive. Belle didn’t hesitate showing her expensive wedding gown and jewelry she received from Jayden to her friends. But,

groups to arrive.
Soon, a black Lamborghini stopped in front of the banquet hall and the Manager of the JW groups came out. He then opened the door of the back seat and politely asked the person sitting inside to walk out. James emerged from the back seat and elegantly walked in the hall. He gently walked up to me, wrapped his hands around my waist and said, “I’m sorry, darling. I got busy signing deals with Parker groups.”
Belle and Jayden dropped their jaws in shock. James’s arrival as the president of JW groups stunned everyone. All the business tycoons began revolving around us, asking James for a meeting, trying to please me with their flattering voices. No one paid attention towards the couple who was soon going to get married. James now walked up to the altar as he said, looking at Jayden, “I’m sorry, cousin. I feel like my presence has stolen the limelight from you. But, don’t worry, I have prepared a very special wedding gift for you. This gift will

soon give you the limelight and make you the center of attention to everyone.”
Just then the light suddenly went off and a video played on the wall. It was Jayden‘ s dragging unconscious Mr. Daniel to a hotel room where a girl was lying unconscious. She was James‘ s step mom.
Mr. Daniel looked up at his younger brother with a pair of shocked eyes. He muttered, “It’s you and your wife! You did it. Why?”
Another video played in which Jayden’s parents were discussing James.
“That b*tch has given birth to a boy. If she comes back with her bastard, he will be the sole heir of Parker’s group. Brother will hand everything to him, and sister–in–law, being a kind woman, will not say anything. We will get nothing this way.” Jayden’s father spat.
“We have no choice then,” Jayden’s mother said, “To stop it from happening,

we have to hide his existence from Daniel.
We have to kill both mother and son. Only that way, everything will come to Jayden’s hands.”
