She believed someone must have involved her in the conversation due to the cold and silent reception they gave her.

Also, due to how Lydia fetched her upstairs and shoved her inside the boss's room— it was normal for her to assume some ugly things must have been said about her.

Oliver was about to engage her once more in speech but Michael winked at him to leave the floor open for him instead.

Dorothy chimed a forced beam at the young healer who was briskly approaching her.

Her spine quivered nonstop, her mind entertained several reasons behind their deliberate silence.

With an intimidating dry scoff, Michael finally engaged Dorothy.

“Let me save you the tension you have been battling with and get right into it.”

Her eyes instantly widened at the grasp of Michael's words.

It was crystal clear her induced pressure was etching on her countenance.

“Have you suddenly forgotten we have CCTV cameras strategically positioned at different corners of the mansion? Huh?”

“Ohh, you presumed the s

    The name “Marshall” rang a serious alarming bell to most of the eardrums in the room. Dorothy stood at a spot, barely breathing properly, her blood tingling with fear. She completely froze and lowered her gaze to avoid keeping steady contact with anyone in the room. The unexpected revelation has been spilled out, the drama has intensified! She just let the cat out of the cage! Apparently, Michael Scofield wasn't entirely surprised about her verbally indicting the only offspring of Oliver King. Less than a month ago, the same individual spearheaded the scheme to have him eliminated if not for the odd decision of his college friend who exposed the devilish mastermind. From Barr. Frederick’s confession and insight— Marshall wasn't a part of the sinister plot that recruited those assassins that submerged his body in the lake. However, Michael strongly believed that Marshall somehow knew about their plans and chose to turn a blind eye. For the first in several hours, Olive

    Oliver knew Dorothy had no reason whatsoever to lie against Marshall being the fact she had already been caught.Hence, for her to persistently indict his son verbally, showed a level of truthfulness.Oliver wasn't just ready to accept the unbelievable truth that his own son had schemed for his death and had to use his household staff to implement that.[All to what end exactly?]Hence, he had to physically unleash his anger and Dorothy's cheeks had to get a tinge of that.The boss's face was engulfed with thick sweat; he was trying to wrap his head around her words and where he got it wrong in training Marshall.He provided for all of his basic needs and enrolled him in the best schools in the world so he'd instill societal values and competence.At graduation, Oliver brought him closer to the family business so he would have a better understanding of how things are handled.What did he do to deserve such evil payback from his son?He was wondering if it was because he called off his

    Michael Scofield slowly smiled back at Oliver King and returned to what he was initially doing.He inwardly spilled appreciative words to the Angel Force for guiding him throughout the second healing adventure.Despite being a rollercoaster of emotions, shock, disbelief, and shame from different individuals he encountered in the process.He would have hastily judged Caleb when he frowned that Marshall was hidden because of him.However, the instructions from the Angel Force were explicit to ensure he didn't leave the room while he watched him perform the healing routine.That alone should have given him the momentum to instantly brand him as guilty, but the instructions needed him to be open-minded rather than being judgemental.Most of those in the room would hardly assume that Caleb was never involved in the supplement overdose scheme against Oliver.In less than two minutes, one of the domestic staff ambled into the room with a wine serving tray that had a newly washed and dried gl

    The caller terminated the call after the last statement, and instantly, the room fell into silence.Dr. James and Oliver King glued their eyes on the young herbal healer and noticed a reverberating calmness after he engaged the caller.Slowly Michael slid his cell phone back to his pocket and let out a faint tongue smack.The silence lingered for almost thirty seconds, with Michael being plunged into diverse thoughts on the purpose behind the call.His mixed emotions intensified as he pondered why he didn't do his best to meet with the caller beforehand because that was what he should have done.However, due to twisted events in the past months, he wasn't able to have a word with the caller, and that didn't sit well with him.The thought of the caller came alive in his consciousness during the seven-day herbal training, and he had no excuse for why they hadn't seen each other for several months.Michael's phone chimed and it was a congratulatory message from Lord Eric for healing his

You helped me from falling off.”She managed to mouth while still engrossed in his charming blue almond eyes.She couldn't breathe properly in awe-struck! The Adonis Of Man

    Breath hung on Michael's nostrils as he let out those words.The world fell into numbness. All that mattered was what their eyes entrapped on each other.A tinge of heart palpitations gradually and slowly plunged their chests, and both men drew a sharp, deep breath to feel alive again.Right at that moment, Michael chimed a beautiful, complicated smile as a flash of past events tingled his blood flow.He vividly remembered the first day his path crossed with Mr. Charleston, his ex-father-in-law.How he was employed in the Charleston shopping mall enterprise despite barely knowing who he was and became a rock in his struggling life.In a similar state, Mr. Charleston winked at Michael while they still stood a few distance away.He clearly remembered how he met the young, ambitious man who exuded quality, integrity, and competence after being employed.In less than six months he fished out the bad eggs in the shopping mall business who were on the verge of embezzling the enterprise’s fu

    Charleston leaned further to learn more, his ears widened in anticipation.Michael giggled inwardly and was clearly enjoying the moment of eulogy.“You are unbelievably talented and you have blessed humanity with your awe-struck gifts.”“When all hope was lost and Shalom, the little girl, was trapped in the fierce fire. You were the only one who confidently climbed the walls to save her which earned you the widespread famous title: “The Fire Immune COO.”Charleston exhaled shockingly and gasped in awe.His friend has actually told him all those but it slipped his memory due to his sickness.Charleston played along like he never told him so it wouldn't seem like he was painting the painful picture right before his face.However, shockingly, there was a particular piece of information that Jonathan told Charleston that he had never forgotten, no matter his health condition.“Wow. You did all that!?” Charleston exclaimed and playfully punched Michael's shoulder again.The room was enmesh

    A strong chord vibrated in Michael's veins while he held his head with both hands.It seemed like he was reliving the dreadful moments when he struggled to escape from the five merciless assassins contracted to eliminate him months back.The menacing blows, bounces, smashes, and punches kept banging on his head.Michael's hands shiver in past pain while he blurted a sad scream.“What’s wrong? Mikey?” Charleston quickly darted his eyes at him and returned them to Jonathan with his mouth agape.From his suddenly awakened countenance, he was completely puzzled at what was going on with Michael.His eyes flickered with brewing fear and he wondered what he should do to make his ex-son-in-law feel better again.Jonathan was also perplexed and had his both hands widened in outright terror.“Mike, please don't worry about giving him details. What's going on with you?”He held onto him and placed Michael's head towards his chest while he prayed for him to feel much better.With how Charleston'

The same media expertise took it a life duty to broadcast the fabricated evidence.“Seemed so,” Claire chipped in. “It’s ridiculous that some media industries are pushing the narrative rapidly. Gosh!”Michael wasn't surprised about the rapid spread of those indicting news. Marshall wouldn't embark on such a war without having some media enterprises in his control.Hence, those designated media industries might have been i

Inside were detailed financial records; his own financial records, except they were manipulated with false transactions.The numbers painted an untrustworthy picture, making it appear as if he had been funneling company funds into personal offshore accounts.When he had just got out of the fabricated transactions in Eric Cottage Winery Enterprise.

He didn't have any doubt about her trust in him.Regardless of what the headlines would say about him— Scarlett, who hadn't known him for more than four months, seemed to be a staunch believer in his belief system.Little wonder, she visited the interrogation cell during his temporary detention.“The storm will definitely arise but it won't swallow you up. They're fighting you badly because you're better in every way.”“Brace yourself! You have done a lot for humanity, you have been a good example for the present and younger generations. Your integrity and value system have set a precedent for us to adhere to.”“You're our hero! The multi-talented Herbal Fortress! The business genius!

He used to request Eric Cottage Wines for sales.It was more like a walk in the park for him.

    Michelle drew a slow breath, glancing nervously around. “He's planning something big. I overheard him talking to some of his allied, powerful, wealthy figures before he was arrested. He's looking for leverage; a way to bring you down.”Michael’s forehead knitted in thoughts. “Why are you telling me this?”Her voice remained steady “Because I have hurt you enough," she admitted quietly. “I made mistakes, but I don't want to see you destroyed. Despite everything, I… still care in some way.”For a moment, there was silence. Michael studied her emotions, facial expression, demeanor, and attitude— searching for deception, but found none.“Thank you for the warning,” he cautiously replied. “I hope you find the path you’re looking for.”Michelle chimed in a shaky smile and turned heading out until his voice halted her tracks.“Who are these unknown allied figures? I know they have been sponsoring this battle. What do they have to gain? Who are they?”Michael's words oozed with curiosity— in
