After that day, my relationship with Olivia never changed. She didn't even question why I did it. Nor did she ask for anything, even though I had taken her virginity.I wondered why she was like that. She should have been angry and furious because I had disrespected her. Olivia was as professional as ever, and she even treated me like her boss."At ten in the morning, you have a meeting with Nirvana Corp., followed by lunch at Le Calme restaurant. And at two in the afternoon, you have a meeting with Mr. Lanston." Olivia read out my schedule for the morning, but I couldn't help but think back to yesterday afternoon in her office.My head is really dirty right now. Seeing her in a press dress like that makes me remember every curve of her body. I quickly shook my head to dispel all the dirty thoughts that had been running through my mind."Sir!" I gasped as I heard that soft voice calling me. I looked up to find Olivia staring at me with a furrowed brow. Her face showed none of the misb
I also asked Olivia to find out who holds the orphanage certificate so I could pay it off. I would do anything for Tracy because she is my mom.After half a day of waiting, Olivia finally found the person. When she entered the room, Olivia looked sluggish, and her gestures showed that she was uncomfortable. I had a feeling she was going to say something bad."The one who holds the certificate for the orphanage is Mr. Lanston, sir. Some years ago, Mrs. Tracy mortgaged it to someone, and in recent months, that person sold it to Mr. Lanston."I clenched my fists at Olivia's words. What had Mr. Lanston meant by mentioning the orphanage? Maybe he had been investigating me all along, but for what?I took a deep breath and then gave Olivia an order. "Put me through to Mr. Lanston."I could have gotten Tracy a new orphanage in a new place. But I knew how much this orphanage meant to her. She had spent so many years there and there were so many memories that could never be replaced.Olivia han
I opened my eyes and felt my whole body frozen like stone. I couldn't even move my neck.Shit! What had he done to me?I concentrated and tried to neutralise the liquid that had been injected into me. As the heat flowed through my body, I could feel my muscles slowly loosening. I could even move my neck now.I let out a long breath as I was finally able to turn my head and see what was here. I was in a small room, and there was only me. As I looked down at my body, it was only fitting that I could not move. A rope was wrapped around me from chest to toe.Only ties like this were so easy for me to untie with my physical strength. I exerted my energy throughout my body, and the ropes that bound me slowly unravelled. I immediately breathed a sigh of relief when my chest felt relieved after the ties were untied. But I did not move on immediately. I first checked to see if this room was equipped with CCTV. And true to my fears, there were 2 CCTV cameras in the room."Leon! Leon!" My eyes w
After they left, I got off and walked straight out of the room. I walked down the corridor, looking around.When I met the guards, I immediately shot a ball of light into their eyes. For a while, they could not see because their eyes were covered by the white light. They moved erratically and sometimes even bumped into each other.I was able to walk past them. Every time I see a surveillance camera, I make it break first. And then I can go on calmly."Leon!""Ah... Eren. What's up?' I asked as I walked on."What's up? You just disappeared, and you're acting like nothing happened?""Um... how?" I didn't want to argue. I knew Eren was nagging because he was worried about me."The three of us were near the place we suspected. It's like a castle in the middle of the forest. Some guards are guarding the gate. We can't go any deeper."I nodded. "I'll find a way out."The corridor I walked through turned out to be quite long, and as long as it existed, all the rooms along the corridor had be
I tried to pull the man's arm to get his hand off my neck. It was a bit difficult, but eventually it came off. I immediately twisted the guard's hand and then pushed him until he fell and his back hit the ground.I stomped the bottom of my staff, and from under his body came a rope wrapped around his legs. While they were busy untangling themselves, I took the opportunity to escape.I made my way to the end of the corridor. There was a door leading into a shed. I opened the window of the shed, and there was a staircase leading straight down to the backyard."You come down here." I told them to come down one by one. They were so crowded that some of them fell."I said one by one...!" I spoke in a high tone, making them all silent and frightened. "If you are like this, you will not survive. They will be coming soon."Finally, they obeyed and went down, one by one. But when only half of the people had gone down, the guards were already waiting below, their guns pointed."Stay there, or w
The long awaited five days had arrived. I returned to Eren's laboratory to test the potion he had developed. I kept my body in a normal state so that I could see the effects of the poison I had been given.I looked at the clock on my left hand. There are five minutes left. Eren would inject the poison twice. The first time before the end of time and the second time after.Eren was ready, the syringe in his hand. He injected the poison into me, and we waited a while, but there was no effect."That means this potion has the same effect on humans. There is no need to test the consequences." He went back to his desk and wrote a note in his book. I followed him."I will look for the raw materials, and we will continue to make the potion. I have bad thoughts after what I saw at that place."I was sure that their goal was still to make a lot of zombies. And they must have moved to a new location by now. Of the hundreds of zombies, only two were left for who knows what.Eren nodded and agreed
I replied with a mocking smile at the man who had now extended his hand to me."Isn't it wrong of you to accept this man as your son-in-law, sir?" Mr. Lopez's face clouded immediately upon hearing my words. He, who had been smiling, now became tense."What do you mean, Mr. Durand? Do you know Ian?" The middle-aged man looked curious and now looked at me with narrowed eyes.I looked at Ian and felt something strange. Why did this man look so casual and not afraid that I would tell him all his ugliness?"Of course I know him, sir. He is a former employee of this company. He is also the man who had an affair with my ex-wife." I said it out loud so that no one else would be victimised by Ian. Enough of my life being victimised by this man in front of me."Is that true, Ian?" Mr. Lopez looked at Ian as if he wanted an explanation."Of course not, Dad. He is just jealous of me because his ex-wife used to be crazy about me. But I never responded to him because I didn't want to invade someone
After Mr. Lopez's anger at me, so many businessmen seemed to have shunned me—even some tenders we did not win.I looked at Olivia, who looked upset after we returned home without winning a multi-billion dollar tender. It had been five tenders that we had failed to win, with excuses that seemed trumped up."If this keeps up, this company will go bankrupt, sir." Olivia faced me with her hands on her hips. "There are many employees who will be out of work."She looked both annoyed and angry. It turned out that she was thinking not just of herself but also of the employees of this company.I just watched in silence as Olivia continued to get angry. I wasn't really thinking too much about this company. Even if this company goes bankrupt, I will still have a lot of money.Why don't I use my money for this company? If no one wants to invest, then I will."Olivia!"Olivia, who had been preoccupied with her thoughts, turned to me. She looked at me with a curious expression."Don't worry. I wil
