When Isabelle got back home, she went straight to Dara’s room.

“Ms. Isabelle. Did you just get back home?”

Isabella walked passed Dara into her room before answering, leaving Dara seething on the inside.

‘This rude bitch just waltzes in like she owns the place!’

Isabella sat on the bedroom bench and smiled smugly at Dara.

“Dara….do you know why I never liked Cassandra?”

Dara looked puzzled, how the hell was she supposed to know the answer to that? As far as she was concerned, this family should have worshipped her for what she did for Ian. Smiling nervously, she also sat down.

“I’m afraid I don’t.”

“Because that bitch never knew her place! She always walked around with this air that screamed smugness! Never mind the fact that she came from some regular class family….she thought….just because she was some ‘genius’; that made her better than others…..better than us!”

Dara sat in silence as she listened to Isabelle rant. For a brief moment, she couldn’t help but feel bad for Cassandra.

‘What a piece of shit family. You all threw Ian out when he didn’t live up to your demands….if it wasn’t for Cassandra….he would never became head of household. She IS better than you.’

Dara knew, if this was how they felt about someone as capable as Cassandra, she could only imagine what they thought of her. As Isabelle continued, she never even noticed the hint of disgust in Dara’s eyes. How she thought to herself she would be much more different than Cassandra. She was carrying the new heir to the Keller household. Once Ian married her; she would get rid of all these fools!

“I mean sure….she helped my brother get back on top but so what! It was a privilege for her to even be near a Keller let alone help them! Ungrateful bitch!”

Dara listened on as Isabelle continued to rant. Finally reaching her point.

“Do you know why I’m telling you this?”

Dara shook her head in confusion as Isabelle smile darkened.

“Cassandra helped my brother build an entire empire that tripled the Keller family wealth and was STILL beneath me. You’re not even a third of that. So imagine what you are. Now I’m helping you become Mrs. Keller because I believe although you have no real value, you’ll serve my brother as needed. Not to mention, you’re carrying my nephew, and I would rather die 1000 deaths than watch my brother gravel for that whore!”

Dara’s eyes widened in shock as Isabelle’s rant became darker. So she DID think Cassandra held more value than her!

“So it’s quite simple….as long as you know your place…..you’ll be fine. Don’t ever get a big head….kay!”

Isabelle smiled brightly causing Dara to shudder. She couldn’t wait until Ian came back….she needed to get out of this house and away from these freaks! Nervous, she nodded in agreement.

“O-Of course Ms. Isabelle.”

Satisfied, Isabelle stood and left, leaving Dara furious!

“I don’t give a shit what Ian says! I cannot stay here another moment!”

The next morning, Dara woke up early and began to pack. Ian would be home in 12 hours; she would be leaving with him. She'd already sent him messages the night before saying she needed to have a break from this house. Ian promised to take her to their cabin.

“All this stress can’t be good for the baby.”

As she folded her clothes, her phone began to buzz. Notifications were coming to her social media pages back to back! Confused, Dara stopped what she was doing to check her phone. As she unlocked her screen and opened her page, her eyes widened so much they nearly popped out of her sockets!

“What. The. Fuck!”

In bold letters, she could see the article clear as day!

{Cheating Scandal revealed! How the King of the West heart was broken by his cheating wife!}

Dara stared in shock as she read over the article. It detailed a love story between her and Ian and the betrayal of Cassandra Keller. The article highlighted how she saved Ian’s life and how the evil wife, filled with jealousy and rage, ended up having an affair with the Eastern Coastal mogul Ayden Crawford.

Dara could hardly believe it! So THIS was Isabelle’s plan! To turn Cassandra into an ungrateful cheating bitch while she and Ian were innocent star-crossed lovers! A manic laugh began to come out of Dara’s mouth! She couldn’t stand her…..but she had to admit….Isabelle was a genius!!! As she continued to laugh, she read over the comments. Thousands of comments from netizens were tearing Cassandra apart!

{She’s a slut!!}

{Shameless!}

{Thank god for Dara! First she saved his life now she’s saved his heart!}

{Instead of being jealous she should have been kissing Dara’s feet!}

{Please! She was probably already cheating! She just used this as an excuse!}

{You’re probably right! You know what they say about cheaters!}

{Emm hmm! They think everybody is cheating! Dirty bitch!}

The comments were endless, each one worse than the last! Even if Cassandra tried to deny the allegations, at this point no one would believe her! This was incredible!!!

Ian and Eric arrived back in the West a little after 8pm that evening. He decided to go straight to his parents estate and pick up Dara. Her last message sounded like she was getting a little frustrated with his family so he decided to take her to the cabin.

‘A break will probably be good for her. I know they can be a lot.’

He thought as Eric placed their bags into the car. Once in, Eric turned his phone back on. After instructing the driver to first take Ian to his family estate, Eric opened up his notifications. One by one, hundreds of notifications and messages came flooding it. From the company lawyer to their PR team, even Ian's divorce attorney; message after message all in panic. Confused, Eric began to open the notifications, before he could see what was going on, Ian’s divorce attorney Janice called again.

“Ms. Janice? How can I help-”

“Have you seen the fucking news on social media!!!!”

Eric's eyebrows furrowed. Social media? What was so important about that?

“What, no. Mr. Keller and I just got back and our phones were off. Wait what’s going-”

“Open your social media! Now!”

Ian was now looking at Eric. Even with his earpiece on, he could hear her screaming; and though he couldn’t make out the words, what he did understand was that something was clearly wrong.

As Eric opened his social media page and read, his eyes began to widened in horror!

“Janice….what the fuck is this!”

“I don’t know! Somebody leaked this story!!!! We need to get this off the internet now!! If Cassandra Davis sees this we are fucked!”

Ian’s brows were now furrowed.

“Eric….what the hell is going on?”

Eric looked at Ian as beads of sweat formed on his forehead. Nervous, he handed him his cellphone. As Ian read over the contents, his eyes turned bloodshot red!

“WHO. THE. FUCK. DID. THIS!!!”
