Izzy gritted her teeth. She had known Olivier Horvath was a bastard, but not like this. Not to this level.

“I’ve never met a father like you.” she said. “How can you even call yourself Liam’s father? All you’ve ever done is tear him down. Mock him. Humiliate him. That’s not parenting. That’s abuse.”

Olivier didn’t flinch. He simply chuckled, low and slow, like he was genuinely amused.

You really are blind,” he said. “No–stupid. If you think Liam built what he has because he’s clean, then you’re out of your mind. Your husband–your precious Liam–built everything with blood. With backdoor deals. With plays, I taught him. He’s not some saint you dragged out of the mud. He’s just like me.”

Izzy’s fists clenched at her sides

“The only difference between us,” Olivier continued, stepping closer, “is that he lets a woman like you walk into rooms like this and act like you belong. That’s where he failed.”

Izzy’s eyes flashed. “Shut your mouth.”

Olivier’s grin widened. “Hit a nerve?”

“I said shut your mouth! Liam is nothing like you. Stop trying to drag your son’s name with you! I know Liam.”

“Do you?” Olivier tilted his head. “Then where do you think he learned how to manipulate? How to set up deals? You really think all that came from your bedtime stories and charity work?” He scoffed. “That boy learned from the best. He watched me, studied me. And now you’re so high on your little fantasy that you don’t see the truth.”

Izzy took a sharp step forward. “Liam has more integrity in one finger than you’ve had in your entire life.”

“Is that what he told you?” Olivier sneered. “You want to talk about what kind of man Liam is?” he said.

Izzy gritted her teeth. A part of her wanted to slap this man, but no. She was not here for that.

“You don’t have the right to talk about your son after what you did to him,” Izzy said. She needed to convince herself to stay on the script. She cannot let her anger get the best of her.

Olivier crossed his arms, shaking his head like he was disappointed. “And here I thought you had at least a bit of sense. Turns out you’re just another fool who fell for a pretty story.”

Izzy narrowed her eyes but didn’t speak.

“Liam built his company on the blood of others. He didn’t climb the ladder–he broke it and stepped on everyone who tried to follow. You believe him because he’s charming. Because he looks at you like you’re special. That’s the worst mistake you
