"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
"What's the matter, Alice?" Garcia asked, her voice calm but firm."It's about Master; he's in trouble," Alice replied, her voice shaking slightly.Garcia's heart skipped a beat. "What kind of trouble?""Master Storm is in great danger," Alice said, her voice shaking. "Vespera Venom has been sent to assassinate Oliver."Garcia's body shook in fear at the mention of the infamous assassin. "Vespera?" she said, her voice quavering. "That dangerous assassin? Are you sure?""That's the truth, president." Alice replied. "We caught some men who came to Boston Hills to inquire about Master; it was through them that we came to know that Master has been targeted."Garcia nodded and said, "Alice, you must not let any harm befall Oliver. I'll get more men to Boston Hills; protect my son as much as you can." She said "You don't have to worry about that President. Even if it means turning Boston Hills upside down just for master's safety, I'll do that." Alice's voice was firm.Garcia nodded with r
Half an hour later, Oliver arrived at the Empire Hotel. He scanned the hotel lobby, looking around for Megan. As he turned to the left, he saw her standing by the elevators, looking stunning in a navy blue dress that hugged her curves perfectly.Megan saw him and walked towards him, smiling as she greeted him. "Hello, Mr. Storm, it's good to see you."Oliver smiled back and said, "Good to see you, Megan. You look beautiful."Megan blushed at the compliment. "Thank you, Oliver. You're looking good yourself."After they had their greetings, they made their way to the hotel's restaurant and sat down to order a meal."Megan, tell me why did you leave your job? I thought you said this job was really important to you." Oliver askedHearing his question, Megan sighed, not knowing how to answer. "Actually, it's because..."Before Megan could say what she wanted to say, Oliver's phone began to ring. He took his phone out and was stunned seeing that it was a call from his mom, Garcia Storm."Mo
