Zayne faltered, his hands trembling against the baton he was holding.‘I knew his presence was overwhelmingly strong, but this is the first time I’ve seen his eyes like this,’ Zayne thought, looking at Oliver’s face.The anger was evident in Oliver’s eyes, sending shivers down Zayne’s spine.Zayne tried masking his fear with anger. But it was too late. Oliver could sense the cold bite of fear in him.“What’s the matter? Cat got your tongue now?” Oliver asked, raising an eyebrow. “Where’s the arrogance you had earlier? And why are your hands shaking?”“T-This…” Zayne looked at his hand, and he seemed pathetically scared. “Shit. Damn you, Oliver!”Zayne swung his baton, but before it landed on Oliver’s face, the latter caught it with his right hand.“W-What the?” Zayne asked in confusion, looking at Oliver’s hands—which were now untied. “How?”His gaze stopped at the blade Oliver was holding; a blade.“You didn’t really think I’d let you beat me up without having a backup plan, didn't

Back at the abandoned warehouse, Zayne was escaping alone as Oliver already beat all his people up.This was the first time he saw Oliver bursting into a rage.It sent shivers onto his spine, knowing Oliver could kill him that moment if he wanted to.“Shit,” Zayne groaned, feeling the pain traveling onto his body.Broken ribs, aching muscles, and some bruises and wounds.None of them were comparable for the intense aura Oliver showed with his eyes.And Zayne felt that everything happened because of him.‘I need to report this, and take those injured men to the hospital,’ Zayne thought.Taking his phone, Zayne was about to dial someone’s number.He looked at the sky, and he stopped on his tracks upon noticing something.“What the fuck?” Zayne asked, seeing a bomber flying at the top of the warehouse. “Shit. Fucking shit!”Zayne ran toward the exit, but he hadn't even run that far when the bomb dropped.BOOM!“Ugh!” Zayne groaned as the bomb’s impact dragged him away.His back hit the w

Oliver was too stunned to speak.He didn’t even realize that Zayne would use Trisha suffering, which he created, to escape from the situation.“It’s not me, but him,” Oliver said firmly, pointing at Zayne.“Me?” Zayne asked, smirking and raising an eyebrow. “Where’s your evidence, then?”Oliver didn’t answer. So far, he didn’t have any evidence.He asked Melissa to drop a bomb on that abandoned building, after all.“See? You’re being silent now.” Zayne smirked, looking Oliver in the eye. “Why are you even saying things you don’t mean, huh?”Instead of answering immediately, Oliver stared at Zayne for a few seconds.“And why are you using this situation to cover all the news circulating about you?”The reporters who were listening had their brows furrowed upon hearing Oliver’s statement.Since they were in the hospital, no one there had an idea about the article released on Zayne being involved in embezzlement.“Oh my… Is this true? How could he betray Colossia like this?”“Accepting b
