The Twist Chapter 1 The end of the beginning

Mr. Blackwood Walked into the glass walled conference room with all his board members present.

"Mr. Blackwood addresses the board members concerning their recent plan to launch the company, this is a multi-million dollars tech company,"

Mr. Blackwood needed the best advertising agency to create a campaign that could capture global attention, for a successful launch.

"Mr. Marvel which advertising agency will help us achieve this?"

"Thank you, Mr. Blackwood, for this opportunity, Harthood advertising agency can help us achieve this, they promise transparency and efficiency and fellow board members can attest to this."

"What if we consider keeping the contract open to both Harthood Agency and Rele Agency, which know that they're the best recently in New York City. We can then invite both parties to present their proposals, allowing us to evaluate and choose the best fit for our company? Lucas suggested"

"I think we go with Mr. Lucas' suggestion, " he concluded as he walked out of the conference room.

His assistant followed him immediately with the minutes of the meeting down a glass walled hallway that led to his office.

Mr. Roberts receives a letter from Blackwood tech venture requesting for the presentation of their proposal for a campaign that they're to embark on.

"Skylar, we've selected you to represent this leading advertising agency at Black wood tech Ventures partnership presentation," Mr. Robert said as he handed over the invitation to her. Skylar's eyes were open in astonishment.

This notion lingered in Skylar's mind even until the close of work that day.

Why would the CEO think of appointing me to represent the firm at Black wood tech Ventures.

Skylar muttered as she kept recalling Mr. Roberts words, one could barely tell that she was a bit nervous, but beneath the nervousness there was a flicker of excitement because this was the first time in her company that she was given the opportunity to meet bigger companies like Austin's Global. Maybe this was an opportunity to improve herself.

Skylar is just a twenty-four year fresh graduate from college, who is still exploring her identity. She is a reserved and talented marketing specialist.

Skylar leaned against the railing of her small apartment balcony, clutching a steaming cup of coffee as she pictured herself on a long table surrounded by prominent executives.

Not too long Skylar immersed herself in research, scrutinizing market trends, competitor's analysis and perfecting her presentation. The meeting was in two days.

As dusk approached, Skylar took a break, clearing her mind as she visualized success and affirming her confidence once again.

It was the last day for preparations, Skylar dedicated the morning to rehearsals, she refined slides, ensuring clarity and perfection.

Skylar's heels clicked against the marble floor of the gigantic skyscraper as she had a firm grip of the portfolio in her hand.

She adjusted her pink blazer then tucking a tray of braids behind her ear as she stepped into the elevator. The door opened with a soft chime on the top floor. The pressure to make a good impression weighed heavily on her. Taking a deep breath, she straightened her shoulder as she took a glance at herself in the mirror in front of the elevator.

The receptionist waved her toward the first entrance to the right.

She approached a glass conference room, and seated at the edge of the table was a tall, sharp-jawed, and dressed in a well tailored black suit that probably cost more than her entire wardrobe, she didn't need a conviction to believe that this was Mr. Austin Blackwood, his assistant gave a nod and opened the door.

She took a seat at the long conference table, trying to steady her hands. She took a deep breath, calming her nerves. No time for self-doubt. You've earned this, she reminded herself.

Mr. Blackwood sank into the plush chair,

You're Miss......

It's Miss Skylar Martins sir.

"Miss Martins he said.

'I've heard good things about your agency.

"I hope you know why your here."

" Thank you, Mr. Austin.

Skylar hesitated "I assumed it was to discuss the proposal.

'I've prepared a proposal, 'she said as she handed over the proposal to him.... Mr. Austin interrupted"

I already know your agency is capable. A hint of amusement flickered on his lips "But there's another factor at play here."

Skylar frowned, uncertain where this was going. "What do you mean? "I don't just hire people based on their company's reputation. I hire people I can trust".

"I need someone who can handle this project with discretion and dedication- someone I can trust implicitly".

"Your company is small, but you've handled some impressive accounts. What makes you think you're ready to take on something that is big, It's a global brand."

"I know the scale of your project, Mr. Austin And I'm confident we can handle it. We may not be the biggest firm, but we deliver results."

"How can your agency help to grow our company Mr. Rolland a board member of Austin global asked."

"Thank you for considering our advertising agency fit to conduct the awareness campaign and we promise to boost your company's growth if it turns out to be a long-term contract. Our expertise spans strategy, creativity and technology to drive impactful results. Here's how we can assist:

Market Research, Brand Positioning, Marketing Strategy

Miss martins presented boldly as Mr. Blackwood listened intently with his penetrating stare scrutinizing every detail.

Finally, Austin spoke. "I appreciate the confidence, Miss martins. He shook her hand sealing the agreement and the board applauded in approval.

A representative from Rele Agency was given the audience to present her proposal.

At the end of the presentation Harthood advertising Agency, represented by Miss Skylar Martins won the contract and our company is happy to partner with your agency. Said Mr. Blackwood

To celebrate the partnership, we go over to the banquet to have our launch.

Skylar's attention was drawn to Austin's charisma and intellect. As the celebration lasted, Austin's assistant, Rachel, discreetly approached Skylar.

"The CEO invites you to join him in his private apartment. He'd like to discuss further business strategies and get to know you better." She handed Skylar a sleek, black invitation card with Austin's address: The Blackwood Tower, 100 Fifth Avenue, Penthouse Suite.

Shall He send a car for you, Miss martins, 8 p.m. tomorrow?"

Skylar nodded, her mind racing with anticipation.

She accepted the invitation, after a brief pause for consideration.

The Billionaire's Cold And Bitter Betrayal

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
