As Oliver had said, a staff member brought in a new dress for Zelda. After the meal and both having dressed up, Oliver handed the car keys to Zelda and said,"I have something to attend to and can't drop you at home, so you should drive."Zelda smiled and shook her head. "No, it's alright; I'll just pick a cab."Oliver insisted, "No, use the car; I'll pick it up later."Zelda nodded with a smile, hugged him, and kissed his lips. "Thank you, Oliver. You're always so kind."Oliver grinned. "Anything for my lady."Zelda giggled and said, "Please don't forget to stay safe."Oliver nodded. "Of course, always."She then turned around and walked out. A smile appeared on Oliver's face. He had finally broken boundaries with her, indicating that their relationship was now on a different level.After he also finished, Oliver walked into room 145, where both Alex and Manager Grayson were.Oliver entered the room and was met with the sight of Alex and Manager Grayson, both shirtless, with bruise
At Ellison's manor, Zelda's mom, Abigail Ellison, was involved in a heated argument with four people.Abigail Ellison stood defiantly in the living room, facing her mother-in-law, Mildred Ellison, or old Mrs. Ellison, her sister-in-law, Catherine Ellison, and her two children, Florence and Andrew. The tension in the room was palpable, with everyone glaring at each other.Earlier in the morning, they arrived at the manor and demanded Abigail move out of the house because it belonged to Zelda's dad, who is their family.Zelda's grandmother spoke up first, her voice sharp and commanding."Abigail, we've already told you that you have to leave this house. It belongs to my son, who is dead, and now it belongs to me."Catherine chimed in, her voice dripping with condescension. "Abigail, you need to understand that this house belongs to our family. You were just a guest here, and now it's time for you to leave."Abigail chuckled and said,"Catherine, are you also making noise here? Who doesn
"Andrews I remember speaking to Florence, not you; can you please shut up?" Zelda yelled at him. "And you dare not address my husband with disrespect because he's doing far better than you." She addedAndrews frowned angrily. Hearing what Zelda said, he sneered at her and said,"Zelda, you've got to be careful with your words; I'm older than you, so I deserve respect from you." He said"Respect?" Zelda couldn't help but chuckle out loud. "If you reason carefully and also know how to behave properly, then you'll get the respect you want from me. As you're older than me, you're still not married, but you know better than anything else to speak of others partners."WOW!"Zelda's reply left Andrews and the rest stunned. Who would have thought that she would be that bold to give that kind of reply? A smile appeared on Abigail's face, seeing how her daughter was making it hot for them.Zelda, after replying, turned towards Old Mrs. Ellison and Catherine and asked,"Grandma, did you come for
Meanwhile, at Geronimo's house, a young lady wearing a loose-fitting t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants, both in muted shades of gray, walked up to Geronimo. She was Sophia, Geronimo's younger sister."Brother, food is ready; join me at the dining room and call your men to come for theirs too." She said"Well, that's good; I'm really hungry; I'll be there now." Geronimo replied with a smile.Sophia turned to leave, but hesitated for a moment before turning back around."Brother, can I ask you something?""Of course, what is it?" Geronimo asked, setting his book aside.Sophia fidgeted nervously with her hands."Well, I was just wondering... when will Mr. Storm come here again?"Geronimo was taken aback by her question. He remembered how unhappy Sophia had been the last time she saw Oliver."Why do you ask?" he inquired, curious.Sophia looked away, feeling shy. "Oh, no reason. I was just curious, that's all."Geronimo raised an eyebrow skeptically. "Come on, Sophia, there must be a reaso
At around 8 p.m., Oliver arrived at the Ellison manor. When the door opened, it was Abigail Ellison, his mother-in-law, who greeted him."Well, well, well, if it isn't my handsome son-in-law," Abigail said with a smile as she invited Oliver inside.As always, Oliver felt uneasy around Abigail's new demeanor."Good evening, Mom," he said with a forced smile."Welcome, son-in-law. Come in, and I'll call Zelda for you," she replied.Oliver nodded and entered the house, taking a seat on the sofa. Before Abigail could turn around, Zelda appeared at the top of the stairs.She had just finished taking her bath and wrapped herself in a white, fluffy towel. As she walked down the stairs, droplets of water glistened on her skin, making it look like she was glowing from within. The towel hugged her curves in all the right places, revealing just enough to make Oliver's heart skip a beat."Oh, that's her already coming." Abigail said as she sighted Zelda.Hearing Abigail's voice, Zelda looked up f
After Oliver left with the car, he picked up his phone and called Aurora, giving her a location and asking her to meet him at that place. Even though Aurora was confused as to why Oliver said it was urgent, she assured him she was going to meet him.Meanwhile, Derick, the guy Oliver had asked to be followed, was busily driving along the deserted road. He was a tall, broad-shouldered man with chiseled features, short black hair, and intense dark eyes. He was dressed in a black leather jacket, dark blue jeans, and black boots. He looked to be in his early thirties and carried an air of confidence and danger about him.Little did he know that there were two black cars following him, and he has been monitored for weeks now.As he drove down the empty road, he suddenly saw two big trucks coming towards him, one on his left and one on his right. He cursed under his breath as he realized that they were not following their designated lanes and were instead encroaching on his side of the road.
"Am I not the one to ask who you are and what you're doing here with these people?" Aurora replied"Hello, Officer Aurora. Master will be here soon." One of the men said"What? Officer?" Derick frowned."These people even know that I'm a police officer; could Oliver be the master they're talking about?" Aurora thought.It wasn't surprising because Oliver called and told Alice about Aurora, and Alice also called and informed the men.Derick had a deep frown on his face as he began to wonder why a police officer would approach him."It can't be that they've gotten a clue about what I do, right?" He thought. "Who's this master they're speaking of?"Aurora also began to wonder what was really going on."If these men are with Oliver, then what about the one who has been trapped in the middle? Could it be that Oliver wants me to arrest him?" She muttered. "How did Oliver get all these scary men by his side?" She wondered"Hey, you all are wasting my time; I have somewhere to go; leave my wa
"WHAT?"Wei Xiang raised an eyebrow to stare at Oliver with an ugly expression when he heard him mention his mom, Xiang, and also Lee."Hey, who are you, and how come you know so much about me?" He asked in a cold voice.Oliver sneered at him and said,"Do you think you're qualified enough to know who I am?""Would you stop playing your dirty fucking games and tell me what the hell is going on or who the hell you are?" Wei yelled.Oliver chuckled and nodded, then said, "Don't get angry too much; your Chinese accent becomes more visible."Aurora, who was standing right beside Oliver, felt angry when Wei yelled at him."How dare you yell at Mr. Storm? You need to be taught a lesson." She said as she moved towards Lee.Aurora threw a quick blow, about to attack Wei. But the anger and frustration he felt at being trapped and threatened, combined with the power of his demonic chi, was too much to contain. In a split second, Wei raised his hand and shouted, "Get the hell out of here!"BOOM!"
