Ivan's eyes narrowed, his jaw set in a firm line as he regarded the opulent surroundings of the Celestial Resort with a newfound disdain.With a subtle nod, Ivan turned to his family members, his voice laced with a quiet but unwavering resolve. "Let's get out of here," he said, his gaze sweeping across the faces of his family, each one reflecting a mix of anger, humiliation, and determination to not be manhandled by the Celestial Resort's security men."Such a foolish and arrogant man!!!" Mr. Vegas said as he watched the Wilsons disgracefully exit the hotel. They were so blinded by arrogance that they could not see the truth right in front of them.Meanwhile in the VIP room, one of the president's confidants who had been keeping a close eye on the VIP servants as they prepared the room for Nathan's coming, immediately called one of them who looked familiar."You there," the president said, his voice low and authoritative, "I recognize your face. Who are you?"The servant's Adam's ap
As the grand white door swung open, the beautiful and luxurious VIP section of the Celestial Resort was slowly revealed. The room was a masterpiece of opulence and sophistication, designed to receive highly esteemed guests.The ceiling was high above and adorned with intricate paintings that depicted scenes from the history of the hotel. An enormous crystal chandelier hung from the center, its countless facets catching and refracting light into a dazzling display.The walls were lined with rich, dark wood paneling, each piece carefully carved with ornate designs. Between the panels were large, gold-framed mirrors and original artwork, creating a sense of elegance. Soft red velvet drapes framed the tall, arched windows, which offered a breathtaking view of the surrounding city and skyline.The floor was covered in a thick, luxurious rug, its intricate patterns and vibrant colors adding to the beauty of the room. In the center stood a long, mahogany banquet table, polished to a mirro
Nathan's lips quirked as he considered the question. "That is precisely why I have called you all here today," he replied, his gaze sweeping across the room. "I believe it is important to hear the perspectives of each of you . So, I ask you, what do you all think?" The room fell silent once more as the Presidents exchanged thoughtful glances, each considering their response with the utmost care. "Well, the Royal Corp has risen to be one of the companies in Prescott," President Dominic said, and the other Presidents nodded in agreement. "Yes, Miss Vanessa is a very smart and capable woman," President Alexander chimed in. "Really?" Nathan said, his face void of expression. Deep down, he noted that the Royal Corporation was the company the Global Triad was considering for the investment. This was the same company he was considering, not only because Vanessa had saved his life in the past, but also because she had trusted and believed in his advice to save her company from b
Ivan's brow was furrowed, his expression a mixture of frustration and disbelief as he recounted the events. "We were in the lobby waiting for you to finish up," he began, his voice tinged with a hint of frustration. "But then suddenly Nathan came out of nowhere and we got into an argument. And before you know it, he had us thrown out of the Celestial Resort!" Liam's eyes widened, his mind struggling to process the gravity of Ivan's words. "Wait, wait, wait," he interjected, his tone laced with bewilderment. "Are you telling me that Nathan didn't flee after stealing those gifts?" How could the man they had accused of theft now be the one responsible for their expulsion? Ivan shook his head, his lips pressed into a thin, grim line. "Nathan, flee?" he scoffed, his voice dripping with a mixture of disbelief and disdain. "No, he's now all high and mighty, and somehow managed to get President Alexander to treat him with such great respect. "Meanwhile, we were the ones
However, as Liam's fingers caressed Claire's hand, Claire slowly retracted it, her expression guarded. Claire was not that naïve; she recognized that Liam's desire to take their relationship to a more personal level, one that she was not yet ready for. She had just gotten out of a divorce, so she would have to think things through before she considered getting married again or being in a relationship again. Liam felt the sting of rejection, which was obvious on his face, but he quickly composed himself, his broad smile not wavering. Victoria, who had always wanted her daughter to marry a successful young man like Liam, immediately stepped in as she saw the growing tension between Liam and Claire. "You and Liam would look so good together," she said, her eyes shining with a mixture of hope and determination. "Unlike that useless and miserable loser of an ex-husband, Liam is a man worthy of your affection." Claire felt the weight of her mother's words, the unspoken pressu
Nathan looked out the helicopter's windows, his brows furrowed as he observed the dark clouds gathering. They would definitely be in danger if they were hit by a storm while in the air."This doesn't look good," Nathan murmured with a grave expression. "We need to find a safe place to land immediately."The pilot's voice remained calm as he replied, "I'm already scanning the area for the nearest suitable landing site. "There's a hotel complex about ten miles northeast that should be able to accommodate us."Nathan nodded decisively. "Make the emergency landing there. We'll have to wait out the storm and continue our journey tomorrow."The pilot acknowledged Nathan's command and adjusted the helicopter's direction, accelerating toward the hotel's location. As they approached, it became increasingly obvious that a storm was imminent, with bolts of lightning cracking through the darkened sky and the distant rumble of thunder echoing around them.Carefully, the pilot navigated the air
Nathan shook Alistair's hand, feeling a glimmer of hope. "Thank you for taking the time to see me, Mr. Carlton. "As you know, the weather conditions are severe, and moving the helicopter right now would be extremely dangerous. I'm hoping we can find a temporary solution until the storm passes."Alistair maintained a warm smile, but he was determined to get the helicopter off the helipad on the roof. The VIP guests he was expecting were major shareholders in his hotel, and he needed to treat them with the best service. "I completely understand, Mr. Nathan. The safety of our guests is very important to us. However, I'm expecting some very important guests, and the use of our helipad is essential for their arrival. "I'm afraid I must insist that your pilot relocate the helicopter to a nearby facility before the storm gets even worse."Nathan's heart sank, but he maintained his composure. "Mr. Carlton, I appreciate your position, but the storm is already getting worse. Relocating the
Liam's surprise expression was replaced by a huge frown as he glared at Nathan. "What the hell do you think you are doing here? Did anybody ask you to come in?" Liam asked angrily as he managed to compose himself.But he was visibly shaking like a thief who was caught red-handed.Nathan looked at him with furrowed eyebrows. What was he doing here? He should be the one asking him what he was doing in his hotel.“What’s going on here, Liam?” Nathan demanded, his voice firm as his eyes darted between Liam and his employee. “Why is Claire unconscious, and what has happened in this room?”Before his employee could speak, Liam immediately interrupted him. "Leave here, you fool! She is no longer your wife, and it is not your business," Liam said, pointing his finger furiously at the door, asking Nathan to leave.Liam was right; Claire was no longer his wife, so he had no responsibility whatsoever towards her. But he could not just ignore a woman lying helplessly on the bed, especially w
