Chapter 39 Chapter Thirty Nine

• The weekend wasn't like any other. The maids were busy scrubbing and polishing every corner of the house. The chefs moved briskly through the kitchen, coordinating meals. The gardeners trimmed and swept nonstop, making sure everything was perfect for Mr. Sydney's return.
• Mrs. Sydney was outside, barking out orders. Her husband was coming home from a long trip, and she wanted everything to be flawless. Later that morning, she planned to pick him up from the airport herself.
• Once back inside, she climbed the stairs and began placing calls—to the financial secretary, department heads, and other key staff—ensuring the company was in perfect shape before her husband's arrival. She couldn't afford anything to reflect Jack's incompetence. If something went wrong, it would fall on her too. She had already spent a fortune settling debts and covering up missing company funds.
