"Madam, what happened? Are you fine?" Logan's assistant was the first to react."Miss Cohen, is everything all right?" One of the two men dressed in suits asked."I can't continue this meeting." Logan replied shortly.Hearing her reply, the two men and her assistant frowned."Miss Cohen, what do you mean you can't continue this meeting? This is a $20 million deal we're discussing, so how can you say you can't continue?" The other man asked with a frown.The two men were discussing a big project involving the building of villas, which they wanted to hand over to Logan's construction team, so hearing her say she wanted to leave left them all stunned.Logan flipped her phone over, showing them the screen."Something terrible has happened to someone I love very much. Do you think $20 million is worth his life?" Logan tried to control herself, but her tears were forced out."The deal is always going to be there, and the contract, and we can discuss it another time. If you want to give it t
Not only Zelda, but everyone was shocked to see Alex propose to her at that moment. Alex didn't care about the stares; all he needed at that moment was to hear an answer from Zelda, which was yes."Alex, what are you doing?" Zelda asked with a frown, feeling embarrassed."Zelda, you're twenty-four now. Would you live all your life without a man? You should accept Alex, and he will take very good care of you." Abigail said with a smile."Yes, Alex is rich and kind; say yes.""Say yes, Zelda, say yes." Everyone was asking Zelda to accept Alex.Even though there were other guys present who also liked Zelda, they didn't misbehave as they knew they weren't qualified enough to compete with Alex.Zelda was confused when she heard how everyone was shouting and asking her to accept Alex. "Alex, you know Oliver is the only man I love, so why all this unnecessary drama?" She asked with an angry expression."Zelda, it's been a whole week since Oliver died; moreover, he had a girlfriend when he
Oliver and Zelda were engrossed in a deep kiss that lasted for more than ten minutes. After a full ten minutes, Oliver carried her to the bed."Wife, I think we should start with the process of making babies now." Oliver smiled as he got into the bed.Zelda pushed him off and hit his head with her fist."Are you this naughty? I'm not ready for a baby yet, so we can't do that." She replied with a blushing face."Ouch, that hurts! Didn't you say mother-in-law said she wanted a grandchild?" Oliver asked"Yes, she did, but I'm not ready for that." She replied"Honey, I hope you can respect my opinion about this matter. It might take time, but I think little by little, our relationship will grow stronger and…""You don't need to worry, Zelda; I'll always respect your decision, so I'll wait patiently till you accept to give me a cute baby boy like me or a cute baby girl like you." Oliver said as he brushed his lips against hers."Hubby, why do I feel you're a god in romance?"Oliver chuckle
Alex suddenly became afraid seeing the coldness in Oliver's tone.He nodded and replied to him."Yes.""Damn!" Oliver muttered with a frown. Just because he left the sender's name blank, Alex was taking credit for the necklace while it was his own money.Seeing Oliver's expression, Zelda felt conflicted in her heart. "Is he feeling bad because another man bought a necklace for me?" Thinking of this, she held Oliver's arm,"Hubby, I'm returning the necklace; there's no need to feel bad, right?" She said"Zelda, what nonsense are you talking about? Are you returning the $200,000 necklace just because this useless kind of son-in-law is feeling bad?" Abigail yelled"He even came to your birthday party wearing a dirty shirt and even came without a gift; is he the same person you're willing to acknowledge as your husband?" She added angrily."Mom, why don't you want to understand that I'm old enough to make decisions about what I want?" Zelda asked"Zelda I'm your mom, and I want better th
The driver immediately stepped on the brake after Oliver finished speaking."Young man, what do you mean by saying I should take you to their base? Do you know how risky that area is?" "You don't have to worry about that. Your charge is only $50, but I'll pay $500 if you're willing to drive me there." Oliver repliedThe driver was shocked at the amount Oliver mentioned. Instead of $50, he promised to pay $500 instead.Even though the money was bigger due to his work, he didn't believe Oliver could pay that because of how dirty his shirt was.Oliver guessed what the driver was thinking, so he took his phone out and transferred $500 to the driver.Seeing that Oliver had really transferred $500 to him, he was shocked and happy at the same time."Young man, why do you want to go to the gang base?" He asked with a frown."I have some scores to settle with them." He replied with a smile."Young man, if you're willing to add more to the $500, then I promise to give you enough information."
Just as the bat was a few seconds away from touching him, he raised his hand and hit the man's throat. It was so fast that no one saw it.The man's hand got stuck in the air, and without even saying a word, he fell down and died on the spot.Seeing him fall and die, all those who were about to rush towards Oliver stopped in their tracks. They were all shocked at how he was able to kill the man even though the bat was only a few seconds away from touching him.The only one who didn't look too surprised was the other guy, who was among the ten who survived. That day on the bridge, he saw more than wonders, so seeing Oliver kill the man in a second, he didn't find it shocking.Oliver smiled lightly upon seeing the man's dead body."I'm going to warn you. Call your master himself here and ask him to bring each and every member of your gang here." He spoke in a cold tone.The whole place was silent; even the sound of a pin dropping would have been heard at that moment."How dare you ask us
Oliver raised his hand and held the tip of the dagger between his two fingers. He opened his eyes, staring at the man coldly."It's over; he's going to kill all of us."Those who were kneeling began to shiver after Oliver's eyes opened.The one who tried to stab Oliver's eyes widened the moment Oliver's eyes opened. He couldn't breathe properly at that moment. He was sure Oliver was asleep, but how he was able to react quickly before even opening his eyes gave him chills.He tried pulling the dagger, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't. It was as if the dagger had been glued in between Oliver's fingers."It seems the one I asked to protect me rather wanted to kill me." Oliver said with a smile."When you waved your hands around my face, did you think I wouldn't know? Before I called you here, I knew you had a weapon on you, and before you tried stabbing, I could hear the sound of your panicking heartbeat." Oliver added"Who really is this guy?" The man wondered in shock. Even
The entire place fell into total silence as the men watched in excitement. They all didn't believe that Oliver would have the power to block the blow from their master, and we're sure Oliver was going to die from the blow.Just as they were all in their deep thoughts, Oliver also balled his hand into a fist and threw a blow to meet Geronimo's own.Boom!"The entire place vibrated when Oliver and Geronimo's blows met."Ahh! Ahh!"A loud yell escaped Geronimo's mouth before he was sent flying a few meters back until he crashed into one of the tables and broke it into pieces."What?"Some even rubbed their eyes, thinking they saw wrongly, but that was the real scene in front of them. Oliver was still sitting down with a calm expression, but their boss was sent flying."How is this possible? How can that kid blow send the boss flying?" Some of the men who had surrounded Oliver muttered with an ugly expression.Geronimo, who crashed into the table, got up with shock written all over his fa
