Travis couldn't help but furrow his brow as he observed the unfolding drama between Olivia and her mysterious companion, Ben. The man was grinning smugly and held Olivia's face, asserting his dominance in a rather possessive manner.With a concerned expression, Ben questioned, "So, now you're mine, Olivia, but it vexes me that you're still with another man. A man of my stature, Benson Jones, doesn't share his woman with other men. It's a blow to my pride."Eager to reassure him, Olivia hastily responded, "Oh no, Ben, my love, you don't need to worry. I haven't allowed that worthless guy to touch me since we've been together. I couldn't possibly open myself to such a pauper; my body belongs solely to you, Ben. You're the only one it will ever serve. Trust me, you have my full devotion!"Travis couldn't help but mutter to himself, finding the situation oddly comical.Olivia continued her explanation, "To be honest, I've been contemplating ending things with him for a while. I used the e
Dear readers,I had initially planned to write this, but it slipped my mind, and I promptly uploaded the other chapters. I noticed your comments in Chapter 121, requesting more chapters, and I understand your frustration. The truth is, I've been grappling with writer's block while juggling my school commitments. I apologize for not being able to concentrate fully.That's why I'm making an effort to upload up to five chapters today and potentially more in the coming days.I sincerely hope you won't abandon my book, as I have no intention of leaving it incomplete. I'm committed to seeing it through to the end....Edwin's day had been clouded with anger ever since his unexpected encounter with Travis at the mansion. The way Travis had addressed him with a sense of dominance, as if Edwin were nothing more than a child, had been infuriating.He couldn't bear the constant humiliation he felt, all courtesy of Travis. It had become increasingly unbearable for him.After much contemplation,
Edwin.The name echoed in Travis’ mind like a haunting refrain as he departed from the hospital, his head swathed in bandages. He couldn’t afford to linger, though, because unfinished business called to him, compelling him to make a swift return home.As he made his way to the car, Damien, who had been a steadfast presence throughout the ordeal, voiced his concerns. “Are you certain you shouldn’t stay back and focus on your recovery? You still don’t look well,” Damien said, his tone laced with genuine worry as he held the passenger door open.Travis acknowledged the concern with a weary sigh, locking eyes with Damien before getting into the car. “I appreciate it, but I need to head home. I’ll get myself checked at the hospital once I’m back in Grove City. I can’t stay away any longer; my family needs me.”With a nod of understanding, Damien slid into the driver's seat, firmly shutting the car door, and ignited the engine as they began their journey toward the Danforth Manor.As they c
"Why are you here, officers?" Bianca inquired, a mix of fear and curiosity evident in her voice. Deep down, she had an inkling that the matter concerned her son, and it didn't bode well.The two male officers bowed slightly in apology as they began to explain, "We apologize, Mr. Danforth, but we received a tip, and it's our duty to follow up on such leads—"Curiosity piqued, Leon interjected, "What tip are you referring to?"One of the officers disclosed their motive with a solemn expression, "Drug-related activities. We received information indicating that your son, Edwin Cooper, is potentially involved in drug trafficking. We are here to search his belongings for any evidence." Edwin's mouth dropped open in sheer shock, and he glanced at his mother, who wore an equally perplexed expression. At that moment, both mother and son were utterly bewildered by these allegations.Leon, frowning in disbelief, asked, "And you have a search warrant to conduct such a search?"The officer prompt
The turbulent scene played out in the Danforth residence, leaving Bianca in a state of disbelief and agony as she witnessed the apprehension of her son. Her voice rang out, a desperate plea for justice, as they forcibly dragged Edwin away from their home. “This is unbelievable! No, my son is innocent!!” she cried out in distress, desperation overwhelmed her as she beseeched Leon to intervene. “Oh, my God, what the hell is happening?! Leon, do something, please!!!”Leon, weighed down by the gravity of the situation, responded with a heavy sigh and a contemplative gaze. He had never anticipated that their day would culminate in such a shocking revelation.He lowered his gaze, grappling with his thoughts. “What do you expect me to do about this, Bianca?! Your son was caught red-handed!”Expressing her disbelief and frustration, Bianca couldn't help but let out a scoff as she questioned the shifting dynamics. "Oh, now he's my son, huh? He's no longer your son but my son, huh?"Leon, ackn
Joanna swiftly intervened as she heard Jakob's confrontational remarks, "Jakob, maybe it's not the best way to address my husband. Our marriage is really not your concern. This is just a reconnection between friends, right?"Jakob let out a sigh and shifted his attention to Joanna, a self-assured smirk playing on his lips. "You're right, Joanna. I should heed your advice, shouldn't I? You're the kind of woman whose words should be heeded, to be honest."Travis observed as Jakob casually placed a hand on Joanna's shoulder, an action that fueled his mounting irritation. With a stern huff, he declared, "I insist that you leave my house immediately."Both Joanna and Jakob responded with identical expressions of surprise, uttering in unison, "What?"Travis, with an unwavering frown, regarded the pair and emphasized, "I clearly said, Jakob, or whatever your name may be, leave my house this very instant. Get out!"Travis’ audacity left him momentarily speechless. "How dare you, Travis, try t
Seated comfortably on his bed, Travis promptly dialed Parker's number. As the call connected and Parker's voice rang through, it was evident that he was genuinely surprised. Parker's initial words carried a tone of excitement, "Travis, how's it going? Receiving a call from you today is quite an unexpected pleasure. So, what brings you to call me?"Travis, keeping things casual, replied, "Just felt like catching up with an old friend. What have you been up to?"Parker, engrossed in his current task, disclosed, "I'm in the back kitchen of the restaurant, lending a hand. It's not too late, and the dinner rush is about to start, so I thought I'd pitch in."Travis couldn't help but furrow his brow, curious about Parker's routine. He inquired, "Is the hotel keeping you this occupied every day?"Parker's response was laced with determination, "Well, you see, the hotel is still fresh in the market as it recently opened its doors. There's a laundry list of things to be done. Plus, remember tha
Travis carefully weighed his words before disclosing a shocking revelation to Parker. The news he was about to deliver would undoubtedly shake the foundation of trust and belief, and he had to be certain of the accuracy of his account.Taking a deep breath, Travis finally began, "Parker, I need you to know the truth. Today, I traveled to Mainville City for some business, and to my surprise, I came across Olivia at a restaurant. She wasn't alone; she was in the company of a man named Ben. What struck me, Parker, was the nature of their interaction. Olivia was intimately hugging Ben, and they shared endearing exchanges. It's evident that she's having an affair with him."Parker, struck by disbelief, immediately and passionately denied the accusation. His voice trembled with a mix of shock and indignation. "No, Travis, that's impossible! It can't be true! Olivia is not that kind of person. I know her, I trust her, and you must have made a mistake, a grave mistake. I can't accept that you
