Claude moved his eyes quickly. He could catch the sound of applause coming from inside the dimly lit room, followed by the sound of approaching footsteps and a man who continued to move his hands to clap as if accompanying Claude's arrival at his headquarters.The sound of laughter was soon heard. Claude looked at the man with a cold face. He knew that it was Max.Max stopped his hand movements. His laughter stopped, replaced by a severe look in his eyes. For a few moments, they looked at each other. A gaze that was equally sharp until Max grinned again. "Very good, because you accepted my invitation to come here very well. I need to recognize your greatness." The man clapped again.Claude was still staring at him intently. But he looked so calm in the face of the person standing before him. "Very good. It seems that you are no longer a coward this time."Claude's words slightly offended Max. He clenched his fists, but for the next second, his face showed a slight grin. "I knew that y

The situation was becoming increasingly tense. Claude even threw Max's hand away violently and ignored Max's screams that echoed throughout the room."Savage! Let me go, please let me go!" Max continued to plead with Claude, but Claude didn't seem to hear Max's voice.Max's screams echoed again when Claude thrust the knife into his thigh. He didn't even give Max a quick death."I will return what you have told me, give you a painful death. And I will do it for you." Claude said that with a cold face.His hands and shirt were covered with blood. Even Claude did not care about his injured hands."Kill me. It's excruciating. You should kill him now. I don't care if you kill me this time. Kill me." Max's voice was shrill. His head looked up, and his rounded eyes endured the excruciating pain in his body."After this, I will make you unable to scream again. But enjoy the rest of your suffering before you get that death." Claude spoke with a cold face. His voice was full of emphasis.Meanwh

Two people are sitting facing each other. Others are busy serving Olivia and Claude at the dining table.The table was clean, and there were only drinks and fruit baskets. They had arrived so early that all the waiters were working quickly to serve the food to their masters.Only Olivia and Claude were there at the moment. They sat quietly and occasionally stole glances at each other and smiled. Olivia was very happy that she could be back together with Claude after she had to wait for Claude's news yesterday anxiously. Although Claude currently had a wound on his hand, Claude had assured her that he was fine."Claude, I'm glad there's no more chaos going on. Even your good name has returned, and no one is talking about you anymore. I'm happy for that." Olivia smiled happily. Her face looked so bright compared to the past few days.Before, she was so worried about Claude, especially when a big problem happened to her husband.At this time, Olivia exhaled heavily. Then she spoke, "Appa

Claude immediately called Bruce to see him. Until Bruce came, Claude directly spoke, "I want to give you an order."The old man immediately bent his body. "Of course, Master. Say what you command. I will do it very well."Claude looked at his servant's face very seriously. Then he spoke, "I want you to tidy up the garden immediately and make sure all the plants that have very dangerous poisons are removed immediately. I don't want them to stay there, or it will hurt Olivia and hurt my son after he is born."Bruce frowned, then he spoke, "Master, all those plants are rare, and all those plants have a very fantastic price. Are you so serious about getting rid of them?"Claude looked at his ministry with a very sharp gaze. "I don't care about the price at all. I only want Olivia to stay well. Quickly do what I tell you to do. Call a handyman or anyone who can do it very well."The old man immediately bowed his body back. "Very well, Master. I will do that right now. Please excuse me."

Olivia went to the place that Eva had promised. Olivia also went with some servants whom Claude ordered to take good care of Olivia. But, of course, they kept Olivia at a distance.Olivia had just exited her car, and someone's voice was immediately heard when calling her name. "Olivia, come here. I am here."Olivia turned her head when she heard a voice that was utterly familiar to her. And sure enough, it was Eva, but Olivia now frowned when it turned out that Eva was not alone but with another friend. But when Olivia arrived, the one who was with Eva also left. Olivia just ignored her."That's not a problem." Olivia quickly stepped out of her car to head in the direction. Eva, until now, they were at the usual cafe."Olivia, I'm so glad to see you here. Tell me what you want, and I'll order it." Eva made an offer to Olivia, but the woman shook her head. She was in no mood to buy anything here. Even the thought of it made her stomach feel sick to her stomach."I don't want anything
