BECOME AN ANTAGONIST
#48
Galy and Rey decide to return to Switzerland and Rey has already discussed this with Phoenix. Davina lives in New York anyway so Davina and Lara won't meet.
Rey also told Phoenix not to meet Davina too often. Rey also watches over Lara and Davina's movements for a while.
He just wants Lara not to get involved in dangerous problems especially to commit criminal acts. This was done for Lara's good as well.

A week passed ...
Nothing happened and Lara seemed to be busy with her work. Velvet called her often and even sent her a message of encouragement every day.
Velvet wants Lara to live well and be successful according to what she dreamed of.
It's not that Velvet wants to make Lara forget her grudge, but she wants to see Lara happy and her life is going well because Lara has had enough of the tough test of life just yet.
Lara also rarely met Phoenix because their work had yet to require them to meet. Only sometimes they cross paths in the apartment especially Phoenix is busy outside the city.
"Miss, someone wants to see you" said Caroline - Lara's assistant.
"Who?" ask Lara who is not looking at Caroline and is still busy with her work.
"He didn't mention his name. She's a middle-aged woman" Caroline replied.
"Get him in" Lara ordered.
"Well, Miss," answered Caroline.
POSTER ...
The woman's hand seemed to slap Lara hard. Lara held her cheek and looked towards the woman.
"You dare to hurt my daughter??? How insolent of you!!! You bastard!!! Even if you've been successful, I'll always see you as a disgusting street bastard, Lara!!" yell Berly Wilson.
Lara just kept quiet and watched Berly. He didn't respond to anything.
"Sway from Robert's family!!! They're not worth it to you and don't ruin my daughter's life again by getting close to Phoenix. She belongs to Davina ... It belongs to Davina!!!" berly said in an angry tone.
Lara's smile was flimsy.
"So Davina likes Phoenix? And he's afraid I'm taking it? That so?" ask Lara flat.
"You won't be able to take it, Lara. Robert's family loved Davina as well as Phoenix. You won't be able to get into their classy lives. You're just a lowly human being from then on up until now" furious Berly.
Lara suddenly laughs and makes Berly even more annoyed because she feels Lara laughing at him. Lara moved from her seat and approached Berly.
His height is as high as possible, making him have to look down when looking at Berly.
"I will make your beloved daughter lose everything she owns including Robert's family. I even planned to buy his company. I want to see her living on the streets with you, O proud mistress," Lara said in a cold tone.
"You think the Phoenix's gonna let that happen?" ask Berly underestimating.
"I will do anything to fulfill this desire. Oh yes, I thank you for saying this to me. So I can determine my next move to destroy Davina from her deepest point of Phoenix" Lara replied with a sharp look at Berly's fiery-looking eyes.
Lara's words enraged Berly and raised her hand again to slap Lara but Lara parried him and pushed him away.
