At the Quantum Unlimited Partner Nomination Banquet, where every corner is brightened by the beautiful light of the chandeliers, adorned with many flowers and well-set design. All seats were filled with influential and well-standard people, while the partner announcement was about to start.Cellinina's car stopped at the red carpet entrance of the banquet. She stepped out, and people marveled at the beauty of her dress. She wore a red gown split in the middle, revealing her long fair leg.A man, dressed in shiny black suit approached her."Hi, my name is Zheng. I am the son of Quantum Innovation and the only heir. Please take my hand, and let's go in beauty," he said, smiling and offering his hand.At the same time, Mlynar got out of the car, dressed impeccably for the first time since the last war. Every woman dropped their jaw."Can we go in, please?" Cellinina said, sliding her hand into his arm, recreating what she did in the Saluzzo banquet.Zheng fumed in anger, "I would have ma
Mr. Frendy was also shocked at the announcement. He was very sure he had sealed the agreement with President Lee, the president of Quantum Innovation Unlimited."Hope he did not change his mind because of me, because of what I said?" Mlynar asked, worried."That wouldn't be the case. Let me check," Mr. Frendy said and left.Cellinina, disheartened by this, remained calm and composed.Meanwhile, Cynthia was very happy, so she hugged Jett out of happiness. Mlynar saw them and looked away.Cynthia noticed this and quickly released him.Mr. Frendy returned with a frown on his face as he sat down, "he knows, he found out about the present situation going on with the Saluzzo."Cynthia looked confused, "he knows, how? Who told him?" Just as she finished talking, her eyes went straight to Jett, who looked back at her smirking."He was the one behind this," Cellinina muttered.Mr. Frendy wanted to storm at him, but President Lee emerged, greeting all who are present.He reached Cellinina's sid
Mlynar returned to the banquet with a smile on his face. He rushed towards Cellinina and nearly hugged her.Cellinina smiled, wondering what happened. "Have you successfully treated him?""Yeah… but not fully. I will continue treating him until he gets better," he stated.Cellinina nodded, "that is very good.""I have sealed a deal with President Lee. You will be chosen as their collaborator," he said.Cellinina was surprised, "Wow… thanks so much… how did you do it?""As compensation for saving his son," he answered.Cellinina frowned, "but I told you to ask for the olive leaves.""We have used some of it on his son, and you really need the position. Don't worry… I will ask Cynthia where she got the leaves," he said.He looked around and couldn't see Cynthia. Cellinina told him she ran out."Ran out? Hope nothing is wrong," he said.Cellinina's expression changed, and she looked straight into Mlynar's eyes. "Mlynar, let's go," she said and left the banquet while Mlynar rushed after h
(In Cellinina House)Riley stormed around the room, fuming after being duped by Ferdinand, who had sold Cynthia's company and fled the country."How dare he betray me!" she exclaimed, pulling at her hair. Just then, the door flung open.Cynthia and Jett entered the room, followed by Mrs. Lucas and Frodo."How in hell could someone sell my company behind my back?" Riley yelled."Stay calm, I will sort this out," Jett assured.Mrs. Lucas, curious about Jett, asked, "Who are you, please?"Jett bowed, "I am the heir of Byce Bull."Mrs. Lucas widened her eyes, "Wow…"Cynthia glared at her mother.Just then, the door was knocked.Riley opened the door only to be pushed away by three imposing men."Who the hell are all of you?" Cynthia demanded."The new owner of your company," the apparent leader declared, comfortably seating himself on the sofa."Who the hell are you people to barge into someone else's house, and who sold the company to you?" Jett questioned."Nigga, we aren't here for you…
Mlynar and Lapland assisted Mr. Saluzzo back home, gently lying him on the bed."You shouldn't have stressed yourself. I told you to have a good rest, and you will fully recover," Mlynar said."I have lived long enough. I'm not afraid of death but afraid of what will be the destiny of the family. I was presumed dead, and there is already an internal conflict," he murmured."Who told you about the situation in the company?" Mlynar asked."Lapland. I had no choice to come… Mlynar, no matter who you are, please protect my daughters, both of them," he requested.Mlynar nodded, "Yeah… I will. But before that, can you tell me what you are really afraid of? I could sense it. What you're scared of is more than the conflict between the family."Mr. Saluzzo was scared, but he didn't want to say it. It's better to remain discreet. He feared that they might return after he died.The door flung open, and Cellinina dashed in."Father…," she kneeled down beside him, "I'm… sorry.""I can see you are v
The next day, Mlynar dressed in random clothes and knocked on the door. He had come to Cynthia's house for the party she had told him about.He was only there because of Mr. Robert. When he knocked, Cynthia immediately opened the door."You are welcome," she smiled at him, then noticed his clothes."You are here for a party, and you wear that?"He nodded, and Cynthia looked slightly angry but opened the door for him.Mlynar himself was surprised by how the room was set and beautified with many decorations, light sparkling around.Mr. Robert was already in the room, "welcome, my son."Mlynar bowed, "long time, sir.""Yeah, long time indeed, have your seat," he said, and Mlynar gently sat down.Just then, Mrs. Lucas and Frodo entered, wowed by the decorations."What is the party for?" Mrs. Lucas asked.Cynthia smiled and left the room, then entered back pushing a table with a big cake on it."Happy birthday, Mlynar," was written on the cake.Mlynar himself was surprised; Cynthia remember
"Mr. Lee, Mr. Lee!" Director Xian called as he rushed to him, shaking his body as if he could bring him back to life."Can I take a look?" Mlynar requested, walking forward.He examined Mr. Lee and nodded, "He is dead. He died instantly after being stabbed by the poisonous knife."Director Xian called security, and the investigation team arrived within minutes.They were startled to see the gruesome scene. "What happened? How did it occur?" Liam, the head of the investigation, asked."We met him like this. I was with him some moments ago, then he asked me to step out because he wanted to do something. When I returned with the visitor he was expecting, we found him like this," Director Xian explained.Liam inspected the body and smelled the blood, "This is a technique used by the Black Shadow."Mlynar knew, but the Black Shadow had never just killed a person without a reason. They were assassins hired mostly by the Nearl family, his family."The Nearl family is behind this," Liam utte
After they reached an agreement and signed it in a file, Mlynar attended to Zheng, who was already gasping, blood rushing from his mouth. Others were with him.He raised his head, sat up straight, then placed his hand on his abdomen. Using a pillow, he propped Zheng up and struck his hand on Zheng's stomach, making him vomit dark blood.Liam pulled out his gun, "What do you think you are doing?""Will you please let me do my job?" Mlynar said, focused on what he was doing. He moved his ear closer to Zheng's heart.The rhythm was weak, and blood was not flowing properly. He performed a short CPR on him, then opened his mouth and was startled to see that all his tongue was black. The poison had spread through the heart and brain. He was going to die."Oh no!" He murmured."What is that? What are you doing?" Director Xian yelled."I told you not to allow him to treat him. He will kill him and pretend," Jett said."What happened?" Cellinina quietly asked."Give me a knife," he requested.
