A Love Bom From Vengeance by Tuesday Parsons

Chapter 19 She Has a Boyfriend?

Pansy stole Mom’s husband. She even married Dad, and she just so happens to run a perfume company.

Celia opened the briefcase and saw a yellowing notebook inside. Once she opened it up, she became thrilled. It was a record of her mother’s perfume research.

For a perfumer, this was a treasure trove. It was the most precious thing in the entire world.

She had a notebook of her own like that and hadn’t expected to find one from her mother too. It made her feel a sense of affinity with her mother.

Celia sorted through the documents. She decided to look into this situation. She was filled with the drive to clear her mother’s name. She had absolute faith in her mother and didn’t believe that her mother had.

been a homewrecker.

Her grandmother always told her that her mother was a good-hearted person who valued principles and morality. She would never do something as shameless as that.

No matter what others said of her mother, she wasn’t going to believe a shred of it when there wasn’t any. evidence to back it up.

All at once, Celia felt a newfound sense of purpose and responsibility in her life. She thought that this was the most meaningful thing for her to do with her life. She wanted to look into the incident back then. If her mother had indeed been a mistress, she would make it up to the Spencers on her mother’s behalf, but if her mother did no such thing, then she was going to make Hugo apologize.

Yes, Celia couldn’t wait for the day she unearthed the evidence to prove her mother’s innocence. She wanted to throw it in Hugo’s face.

When Celia came out of the house, she failed to notice the black SUV parked by the side of the house.

The man in the car was taking photos of Celia. She had a cardboard box in hand as she waited by the side of the road to flag down a cab..

KS International was located inside a corporate building in the city center. It achieved national success as a perfume company, and as the company president who owned 60% of the company, Pansy was considered. an accomplished career woman.

She was sitting in her office drinking coffee as she watched the commercial her daughter just shot. Her lips curved into a smile. My daughter will definitely become the top female celebrity someday.

Just then, her phone rang. She checked to see who was calling before she answered her phone. “Yes?”

“Celia Stuart just left her grandmother’s house and she has a box with her, Ms. Coffman. It could contain the things you’re looking for.”

Pansy was thrilled. “She found her mother’s copy of the agreement and notebook?”

“They’re probably with her right now.”

“Keep a close eye on her. Find a chance to snatch them away from her,” Pansy commanded.

Once she ended the call, she exhaled slowly. All along, she felt as if she had a landmine buried somewhere

inside her.

The thorn on her side was the copy of the equity agreement that Celia’s mother had. KS International used to be known as Celene Perfumery. Over the years, Pansy used all sorts of means to make it seem like the company was solely hers.

However, Celia’s mother also had a copy of the equity agreement, and if that copy showed up, Pansy’s illegal claim to the shares would be exposed.

During the past few years, she sent countless people to search Celia’s grandmother’s house for the agreement, but they never found anything. She sent someone to keep an eye on Celia because she wanted. to find the agreement through her.

Finally, she heard the good news she had been waiting for. Not only did she intend to take the equity. agreement, but she also wanted Celia’s mother Avery Lloyd’s notebook.

Avery’s notebook contained a lot of secret perfume blends. It could be a huge source of profit for the company.

The old district’s undergoing redevelopment. Celia would be getting a sum of money from it. Although Pansy now had a public-listed perfume company, she didn’t want Celia to have a good life either.

In her eyes, Avery’s daughter didn’t deserve to be happy.

Pansy was feeling gleefully smug. I stole her company and her husband. I married into the Stuart Family and chased her daughter out of the family Meanwhile, Avery’s dead and she died dishonorably too. She ended up as nothing more than everyone’s laughingstock.

Inside the company president’s office at Spencer Group, Hugo had just finished a meeting when his capable assistant placed a document in front of him.

“Here’s all the information regarding Miss Stuart, Mr. Spencer. Please have a look.”

Hugo picked the document up. Even though he tried his best to rein himself in, he couldn’t resist flipping through the information as fast as he could. His brows furrowed. “A perfumer?”

“That’s right. Miss Stuart is currently working for Lovan Corp as a perfumer. She just came back from Findella last week and plans on remaining in the country for an extended period of time. The man you asked me to investigate as well is Bryce Zamora, the president of Lovan Corp. They currently have a working relationship as an employer and an employee.”

“Are you sure?” Hugo looked at Greg.

Greg nodded confidently. “I bribed an employee from Lovan Corp and he told me that they’re not dating. but Bryce Zamora is indeed trying to woo Miss Stuart.

Hugo scoffed and checked Celia’s current address. “Did she buy the house herself?”

“No. The house belongs to Bryce Zamora.”

“Are they living together?”

“No, they’re not.”

“Tell me more about this Bryce Zamora guy,” Hugo sniffed disdainfully.

“Bryce Zamora is actually the son of the family who owns Zamora Group, the hotel giants. He’s 29 years old. He left his family to start Lovan Corp by himself, and he’s currently single, Greg informed.

Hugo’s expression darkenied even further. The

Buy Who close are they right now?” He fixed his eyes on Greg.

It was as if he could find the answer from Greg’s face.

Im… not too sure about that. They should have a fairly close relationship. She worked for Lovan Corp during her four years abroad.”

Hugo’s fists tightened. How could any functioning man resist a female subordinate as beautiful as Celia? Damn it. Did that woman go around latching herself onto men during her time abroad? Has she been using her boa to invest in herself?

Greg felt the atmosphere turning icy around him. His boss’ face was as dark as night. “Do you have any further instructions for me, Mr. Spencer?” Greg asked.

“You can get back to work.” Hugo picked up the document and sat down on his chair. He combed through the information as if he wanted to find something. Why did she come back to the country? Is it because of work or is she suspicious about what happened at the hospital back then?

Either way, Hugo knew he needed to keep his son a secret. He couldn’t let Celia find out about Jeremy. Even the warm sunlight coming in through the window did nothing to dispel the chilly atmosphere.

Hugo’s face remained as stormy as ever. His brows were tightly knitted and his eyes were like pools of black ink. He gritted his teeth as he emanated an alarming aura.

He closed his eyes, but all he could see were imaginary scenes of that woman being with Bryce. Just like th she used to move beneath me. Like a bewitching siren. Damn it. Just how many men has she slept with in the last four years?

Celia got out of the cab, hauling the cardboard box with her with a bit of effort. She started making her way back to the apartment.

Just then, two men who seemed to be in the middle of a conversation walked up to her. All of a sudden, one of them slammed right into her box.

“Ahh…” Celia stumbled and the box fell to the ground. The man who bumped into her instantly grabbed the box and attempted to leave with it.

Celia reacted quickly enough to grab ahold of the box. “What are you doing?!” she screeched.

The man glared at her ferociously as he continued to snatch the box away from her.

“Help!” Celia shrieked.

The security guard ran over from the guardhouse. “What’s going on here?!”

The two men exchanged glances and gave up on the box. They quickly got into their car and left.

Celia clutched the box with a death grip. She still looked fearful. Who were those men? Why did they want to steal this box from me?
