****30 minutes Earlier****After Luca got the call from his boys, he quickly changed his outfit. He wore a black t-shirt and matching joggers before stepping out. When he came out of the house, there was no one in the living room, which made it easier for him to reach the garage and drive his car out.After a few minutes, he was some meters away from the Apple Club where the boys had told him to stop. He pulled up to the side of the road and parked his car. The first boy, whose name is Vlad, nudged his friend. "The Boss is here!"The other two, Milo and Karo, turned around to confirm. "That was pretty fast!" Karo remarked. "He really drove so fast."The three boys walked up to Luca's car. Vlad entered the front seat, and the other two took the back seats.Luca wound up his windows. "Where did you drop your cars?" he inquired.The three boys exchanged surprised glances. In truth, each of them had bought a car some weeks back using their black cards, but they were surprised that Luca al

CHAPTER 193.Tense Argument.About 20 minutes later, Luca stood in the middle of Larosa's huge living room. His expression was grim, and his stomach twisted in annoyance at what had just happened a few minutes ago. The last thing he expected was to meet Larosa at the club!"How did she know about Sara?" He asked himself. "Does that mean other elders know about her too?"He shook his head in disapproval of his thoughts. "That can't be. If they did, they would have had her club raided or burnt down for trying to trail me!"Luca's eyes scanned the room, his mind racing with thoughts and questions. He couldn't believe that Larosa had shown up at the club, and that she knew about Sara. It was a coincidence that he couldn't ignore and wanted to talk to her about, but Larosa had ignorantly stayed back, all in the name of undressing herself.He paced back and forth across the room, trying to make sense of it all. How did Larosa know about Sara? Was she following her? And what did she want? Who

Some hours later, Larosa escorted Luca out of her house. She walked him over to the garage where Vlad had parked his car before leaving. As she walked him out, she couldn't stop smiling and living in the moment. This is the kind of affection she had always wanted from him. All through the night, they drank together, ate together, and she slept on his lap. He had to carry her into her room before going to the guest room to sleep. And even this morning, she still has the privilege to have breakfast with him.When Luca reached where his car was parked, he turned to her, a sincere smile playing at the corners of his lips. "Have a nice day, Rosa. I will catch up with you later."Larosa smiled and waved at him as she watched him zoom off until she couldn't see the fumes of his car anymore. Then she went back into her house.As Luca drove, he thought of calling his boys to be sure they did a great job yesterday after Larosa ruined his mission to surprise Sara, since he was equally tired of a

At Apple club. 1:23am. Sara sat in her office. She was sitting on the couch in front of a scattered wad of cash. For the past six hours, she had been recounting all of her money to be sure those who broke into her office yesterday didn't leave with any of it. Her eyes were fixed on the cash as she piled it up together. Each one she piled up, she passed it down to Ken, who was using the counting machine to count the money.The door suddenly opened, and an ebony, tall, muscular man walked inside. He had an envelope with him as he walked in."Madam!" His deep voice rang out in the solitude of the place. "I have news for you," he announced.Sara didn't lose focus on the money she was counting. She asked, "What is it, Williams?"Williams walked forward and placed the file he was holding on top of the wad of scattered cash she was still counting."What is this, Williams?" She turned around and looked at him. "What is this all about?"His lips curled into a smile. "Why not you just check it

CHAPTER.199. misplaced priority.Sara's eyes widened in shock as Madam Ivy's words cut through her like a knife. She felt like she had been punched in the gut, her breath caught in her throat. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. Madam Ivy's announcement was a clear attack on her, a way to discredit her and eliminate her from the running for CEO that was clearly her birthright. She had given her all to the company all her life.Sara was taken aback by the sudden attack from her Grandmother. If anything, Madam Ivy's enemy should be Jacob and not her.Her face turned red with rage as she tried to process what was happening. She couldn't believe that Madam Ivy would stoop so low, using her marriage status against her. She felt a surge of anger and humiliation, her eyes darting around the room to see if anyone else was reacting to Madam Ivy's cruel words, but everyone seemed fine with what she said.Luca, who was sitting next to her, shifted uncomfortably in his seat. He looked at e
