"In two days?" Oliver was shocked, and his father only nodded to the words he said. He needed the competition to be out of the way as soon as possible."Do you know what that means father?" He asked again, and when William nodded, Oliver shook his head in disapproval. It wasn't like he was scared, but then he knew how Adrian was all over him."If that boy dies, I'll become the first suspect. Don't you get it?" Williams chuckled darkly at his son's words, and was able to push it aside. If only his son knew that this was the only way they could get rid of Adrian once, and for all."Listen to me Oliver. If you want me to be a proud father, you should do what I ask you to. You can't keep on acting like you own everything even when you're basically nothing. You should try to be something, and earn yourself that position, do you understand?" Oliver sighed, massaging his temples. He had been in such a situation before, and even when it wasn't easy, he did it. However, it required lots of pl
She was driving herself back home when he got a call on her cell phone.For a split second, she took her eyes off the car, and then turned it to the phone that was right next to her seat."Ella?" She was shocked to get the call from her long time friend, and she knew the reason Ella was calling.She turned her head back to face the road, and then she turned her best to take the call. When she did, she placed it on a loudspeaker so she could hear what Ella wanted to say."Hello girl, how are you doing? Are you home?" Megan was quiet for a while, but then she decided to speak. She didn't like the fact that her friend was seeing what was happening."Why did this have to happen right after I divorced him?" She rolled her eyes, and it was then she realized she had not answered Ella's question."Sorry, I was driving. How are you doing?" She asked with a smile on her face.She tried to look on the bright side. Ella was someone who always had solutions to everything, so it wasn't bad that
Adrian immediately blinked twice when he heard what his mother had just said. It was then he realised that his sister was right. she knew he mother really well, and could tell all the things her mother could do. She didn't even trust her own mother, and the moment he hard what she said, he realised she was the same old person.He thought with the way he spoke to his mother when he found out she was about to sell his father's company would make her change, but it seemed she was too far gone."Eva was right about you." He wasn't afriad to say it. His mother had become something else, and he didn't even know where to position her anymore.Anger filled his eyes, and his blood boiled in rage. Veins popped up from his head, and she was somehow able to make him hate her even more. Adrian didn't understand if his mother was under a spell.He gritted his teeth a couple of times, but she sat there with her face showing no emotion. She wasn't even sorry about what she had said."Mother, how coul
Adrian got off from Kai who was still laying on floor. It was obvious that he wouldn't be making trouble anytime soon.Oliver was eyss widened when he saw the love of his life layin. On the floor. It was almost like his lips were sealed because he couldn't say a thing. His son was to blame. Kai was the one who started the fight, and if he didn't do that, nothing would have happened. Adrian didn't seem ready for the fight before Kai attacked him, so Kai was to blame. All that was happening now was Kai's fault."Mom, mom!" Adrian shol his mother, but she didn't respond.His heart was pounding loudly in his chest, and he didn't understand what exactly happened to his mother."Mother…." He called, and was unable to say anything. It was almost like he was couldn't control his emotions.Eva panicked, fighting back he tears. "Let's take her to the hospital." As soon as she said that, Adrian nodded, he lifted his mother up in his arms, and dashed out of the house. Outside of the house, Adri
Eva's eyes darkened when she saw Oliver. Her lashes were now wet with tears, and she couldn't even stop.She didn't want to react, but then something he did made her pause.He heard the question their mother asked earlier, and had walked into the room with the answer in his lips."Brain cancer. You have brain cancer." When she heard it, she felt her heart shatter into different bits. She couldn't even say a word. Her heart was pounding continually in her chest, and she gritted her teeth.The next thing she knew, she moved towards Oliver, and when she got to where he was, She gave a sound slap on her cheek.He didn't flinch when she gave him the slap, but he pressed his lips together.Oliver was standing there with his hands in his pocket. He had a smirk on his face, and he was watching the shock on everyone's faces when he received a slap from Eva.She glared at him with hate, and if her eyes were bullets, Oliver would have died.His face was turned to the side when her hand hit him c
Adrian came out of the car, and he smirked when he heard the people talking. That was exactly what he called a dramatic entrance, and that was what he planned to do when Eva forced him to come to the party with her."Omg, who is he!" "Whoever he is, he looks like a piece of pie. I want him…" The young women in the hall screeched. Adrian paused for a while, adjusting. His suit as all eyes were fixed on him. He was now getting used to the awkward stares. Somewhere of admiration, while others were for hate. The camera men, and the media that covered the event didn't even wait. they rushed over to his side, and the lights began to flash him as they took numerous pictures.He was like a god, the lights flashing were enough to blind someone, but he was covered since he had black shades on.The smirk he wore made him look like a bad guy, and the way acted caught people's attention.The girls swallowed loudly because they were patched due to over excitement. Even some waiters stood in plac
The party began, and the stage was lit up with plenty of activities that could take over the events. It was nice to know the could still get such performances. The were music presentations, some award giving."Most commited member of the coming goes to…." There was a drum roll, and total silence in the hall. Everyone wondered who it was going to be.Chills passed down her spine, and she was hoping that Oliver didn't get an award so he would know that he wasn't wanted. Speaking of Oliver, she darted her eyes around, and couldn't find him."Where are you, now…" she pondered, using her eyes to dart around the arena, but she didn't see him. "Strange, I don't see what you're planning. Whatever it is, It won't work because I planned everything about this event."The employees had casted their votes about two days ago. It was a form of entertainment for Eva. She wanted to se who the employee loved the most."Sir Francis!" Uncle was shocked, and he turned to Eva, and to Adrian. Eva stood up
Adrian had just walked away from the bartender, and was now walking to where he could relax when he bumped into Oliver.Oliver had a weird smile on his face, and his hands were outstretched towards Adrian. Adrian was shocked to see Oliver, and then he was stunned to see his hands stretched out towards him."Adrian. Congratulations." For the first time, Adrian blinked a couple of times to get what his stepfather was saying. Did he just hear his stepfather say something to him? He was shocked. He never thought they would speak without yelling at each other."How did you know I would be here?" Adrian was suspicious. His eyes studied him. He felt that there was something wrong. Oliver would never be telling him congrats if he didn't plan anything."I happened to run into you. I got drinks from the bar as well, and I had to take this path. I stood here, enjoying the view when I saw you."You deserve to be the head of the company. You're the best person to be in the company. Also, I'm rea
