Not only Zelda but also the others were shocked to hear Kritical address Oliver as master; they were all curious to know why."Hubby, what's going on, and why is he addressing you as master?" Zelda asked in a whisper.Oliver chuckled lightly before saying, "Don't worry, watch the scene unfold right in front of you."Zelda bit her lip and nodded lightly; she felt Oliver was becoming more mysterious every single minute.After hitting the man, Kritical turned to Oliver with his head hung in shame."I'm sorry, Master Storm." His voice trembled as he begged for Oliver's forgiveness. "Please forgive me. I didn't know it was you. I never would have tried to attack you if I had known. Even if you gave me a million courage, I would never have stepped into this bar.""Wow, is this man Kritical's master? Then what about Geronimo?" Someone asked in a low tone.Oliver's expression was cold as he sneered at Kritical. "So, if it was somebody else, you would have just beaten them without knowing the
"Not working anymore?" A deep frown appeared on Oliver's face. "What happened, Zelda? Was the payment bad?" He askedZelda shook her head, looking confused as to whether to tell him the truth or not. Oliver was able to guess that she was hiding something after seeing her expression. He shifted closer to her and locked both hands around her neck while staring directly into her eyes."Wife, if there's any problem, you should always let me know so we can solve it together. Don't you trust me anymore?" He askedZelda bit her lower lip hard, still wearing a shy expression. Oliver moved his lips closer and brushed them against hers."What's wrong, Zelda? Please tell me the truth."Seeing Oliver insist, a forced smile appeared on her face as she nodded. She quickly narrated to Oliver everything that happened the last day in Manager Grayson's office."Damn!" Oliver hit his thighs after she had explained. There was something worrying his wife for long but she wasn't bold to tell him."Oliver,
"Of course you'll use the bed, and I'll sleep on the floor as usual." Oliver answeredZelda looked at him with a mixture of concern and compassion. "You've been sleeping on the floor all this while, haven't you?" She asked, her voice filled with sympathy.Oliver shrugged nonchalantly. "It's nothing, really. I've gotten used to it over the years.Over the years they've been married, he has always slept on the floor while Zelda slept on the bed because she wasn't giving him the chance to get closer to her.Zelda's heart went out to him. "Oliver, I'm so sorry," she said, her eyes brimming with tears.Oliver smiled and squeezed her hand. "It's alright, love. I don't mind sleeping on the floor. As long as you're comfortable, that's all that matters."She shook her head and said, "No, it's not alright. You deserve to be comfortable, too, so from now on, we'll share the same bed."Oliver's eyes widened in surprise. "Are you sure, Zelda? I don't want to make you uncomfortable."Zelda chuckled
"How dare you ask who we are? I'm warning you. Quickly untie us before you get into trouble." The man repliedAlice angrily moved to hit him again, but Oliver raised his hand, asking her to stop.He sat down after that, still staring at the men who had angry expressions on their faces."You know why I'm not angry yet?" He asked. "I had a good time with my wife yesterday and this morning, so I'm cool now." He added"What has that got to do with us? Untie us now." One of the men saidOliver nodded and said, "Since you don't want to introduce yourselves and what you want, then let me do mine." He said"I'm Oliver Storm, and it's nice meeting you people." "What? Oliver Storm?" Their eyes widened in shock upon hearing Oliver's name. They were actually in Boston Hills because of him, but they got captured without knowing that the person they had come to look for was the main person behind their capture.Even though their expressions were normal, Oliver noticed the change when he mention
Oliver's reflexes kicked in as the two men rushed towards him, sending a kick and a blow his way. He skillfully dodged the attacks, stepping to the side as the kick missed him by inches and twisting his body to avoid the punch. As the two men stumbled forward from the missed attacks, he seized the opportunity to strike.In a lightning-fast move, he lunged forward and hit their chests together with two powerful blows. "Bang!"The men let out a collective groan and crumpled to the ground, blood spurting from their mouths, but one quickly stood up, renewed with a new vigor, and joined the last standing man, making it two.Alice's eyes widened in shock as she watched Oliver's fighting skills in action. Even the two now-remaining men were taken aback by Oliver's speed and precision. They were hesitant to approach Oliver, knowing now that he was more than capable of defending himself. But eventually, they regrouped and tried again, attacking him from both sides.Alice could see the shock
"Mystic Mountain?" Oliver nodded and turned to the guy. "Inform Vespera Venom and all those among her that I, Oliver Storm, will be waiting for her next week Saturday around 8 p.m. at Mystic Mountain, and she should face me there. Let's settle everything at once.""Gasp!"The room fell silent in an instant, as both Alice and the man were left stunned. While the man had never laid eyes on Vespera before, he had heard of her reputation as the most formidable assassin. Similarly, Alice was all too familiar with Vespera's strength, so Oliver's bold challenge caught her off guard.The whole place was silent for a while before Alice broke the silence. "Master, what are you talking about? Vespera is like a demon; I might not even take it lightly if I should battle her." She saidAfter a moment of silence, Alice spoke up, her voice trembling with fear. "Master, are you serious? Vespera is like a demon. I wouldn't even consider facing her in battle."Oliver nodded, his expression resolute. "Yes
"Lying? Mom, what do you mean? Of course I slept in the same room and on the same bed with him, but how does that mean we did anything?" She asked"You slept in a room with him; how am I sure he didn't even force himself on you?" Abigail continued to ask questions."Ring!" Just as she was about to reply to her mom, Zelda's phone began ringing.Seeing the name of Manager Lisa on the screen, she hit the answer button immediately."Manager Lisa, why do you call?" Zelda asked with a smile."Mrs. Storm, can you please come to my office immediately? It's urgent." Lisa's calm voice rang through."I'll be there soon." Zelda replied before hanging up. After that, she turned back to Abigail Ellison and said,"Mom, Oliver isn't a beast to force himself on me, and I don't think there's any problem even if he does because he's my husband." After saying that, she placed the other gift bag in her hand on the floor."This is a gift from my husband to you, and also the necklace and this Royal Amulet
Oliver's face on the other side lit up. "She agreed that easily? That's great to hear. He said with a smile. "I hope you didn't mention my name to her." He asked"No, I didn't." Lisa quickly replied. "I told her I could help her and even lend her money to start her own company if she wants. Even though she rejected the idea of money, she agreed to build her own company."That's perfect, Lisa. Thank you so much for everything you've done. I owe you one. Let me take you out for dinner later to show my appreciation," Oliver said gratefully.Lisa chuckled. "It's my pleasure, Chairman. I'll be looking forward to it." She said happily. "Also, what about the deal signed with her old company? Do you suggest I cancel it?" She asked"Yes, cancel it; I'll deal with that company later." Oliver replied in a serious tone. Even though he appeared calm when Zelda told her about what Manager Grayson did, he was very furious, and there was no way he could spare him."I'll do that, Chairman. Thank you
