Waldo smirked, tightening his grip, his excitement growing as he brazenly groped her. “You've got sfire,
Miss Wilson,” he said.
Gracie’s face flushed with shand fury, but she couldn’t break free. “What do you want from me?”
She stopped resisting, glaring fiercely at Waldo.
“That's better,” Waldo said, reveling in his control. Gracie felt a wave of revulsion.
Trapped in his hold, she was unable to break free.
He continued, “Be my woman, and I'll secure a deal with Mr. Mitchell, even push for you to lead the project. You
know the Mitchell Group is in a bind and needs my support. Refuse, and I'll take my offer to the Harper Group,
the Wagner Group, or the Russell Corporation. I've got options; it doesn’t have to be the Mitchell Group.”

entirely. Holding hands, they shared easy laughter, their joy evident.
Gracie burned with envy when she saw that. She believed she was the one who deserved Ethan's love—she had
met him first, loved him first. Why did Brenna get all his affection?
A dark thought took root. If Brenna were out of the picture, would Ethan fall in love with her?
This idea filled her mind, fueling her hatred.

If Brenna hadn't taken Ethan away, would Waldo have dared to harass her so brazenly?
She blamed Brenna for all of this.
Brenna was just as beautiful; why wasn’t Waldo targeting her instead?
This was all so unfair! Why was she always the one to suffer?
The group headed to the artificial lake, where speople lounged in chairs nearby, basking in the sunlight.
