The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 12. SHATTERED PRIDE
Rudolph flinched at Oliver's threat but quickly burst out laughing as if Oliver had just told the funniest joke in the world. His sardonic grin widened even further, signaling how low he considered the threat."Really? Are you going to stop my wedding? Destroy it?" taunted Rudolph, his eyes narrowed in contempt. "With what? With your bare hands? Don't make me laugh, loser! You don't even have anything, except your shattered pride!"Katie, who had been silent beside Rudolph, began to fidget. Her face looked tense, her eyes occasionally glancing at Oliver with a look full of hatred and worry. Either out of fear that Oliver would actually do something stupid or because he felt cornered by this situation, but it was obvious that she wasn't as comfortable as she looked."I've had enough of this shit." Oliver sighed softly, his eyes staring intently at Rudolph. "I didn't come here looking for trouble. You started this, and I want to finish it. But if you continue to push me, I won't hesitat
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 13. OLIVER'S CONFRONTATION WITH MYLES
"Wow, look who we have here!" exclaimed Myles in a loud voice, drawing the attention of the surrounding guests. "Did you come here to congratulate your ex-girlfriend's wedding?" he asked in a condescending tone.Oliver glanced at Myles Lance who was striding haughtily, his sharp eyes staring straight at him, his gaze fell on Oliver's figure sitting alone like a beggar.Myles Lance, the rich man who had always bullied him since school. Even when he did nothing, that bastard kept making him look like a loser in front of everyone. He demeaned him with every bad word he had, pushing him to the brink where everyone trampled on him like useless trash."You never change," Oliver muttered. Although the years passed, Oliver thought the people who used to be bad to him would change for the better as they grew up, but it seemed that instead their hearts and minds were consumed by age.Myles chuckled. "Why? Do you miss our old times?" He put his hands on his waist and styled Oliver's swagger. "Ol
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 14. OLIVER'S POWER
"Has he gone crazy?!""He really is a criminal!"All the guests stepped back in fear. Their mouths gaped, their eyes wide with fear and shock that they could not hide.Myles Lance's once luxurious and classy appearance was now like a pile of garbage with all the food and dessert stuck to his clothes and body. Meanwhile, the blisters on his face were dripping blood from the cuts made by the broken glass."You bastard, Oliver!" Myles shouted. His anger had never been so intense in his life. And it was that loser Oliver who had made it so. Myles vowed never to forgive Oliver for humiliating him and making sure he lived a life of hellish horror."It wasn't my fault," Oliver said calmly. He wasn't at all intimidated by the fearful stares from the guests, or Myles' gaze that seemed to be pointing a laser at him. "I warned you. Twice... and you didn't heed it at all.""Fuck! Who the fuck do you think you are, huh!?" Myles' eyes lit up.Oliver observed Myles trying to stand up straight. All t

"How dare you make trouble at the marriage of the Hanover family who is respected!" Bryan Hanover shouted, his voice booming across the grand ballroom. His piercing gaze was fixed on Oliver Roberts, standing amidst shattered tables and fallen chairs. The wedding, meant to be a moment of grandeur and joy, had descended into chaos.Oliver’s face remained impassive. "I wasn't the one who started this fight," Oliver’s voice cut through the tense air, calm but edged with fury. "Rudolph sent his men after me. I defended myself."Rudolph, his face twisted with arrogance, stepped forward, glaring at Oliver. "You started this chaos! You crazy bastard!" he shouted, his voice dripping with hatred.Myles Lance, fueled the fire, his eyes blazing with rage as he pointed directly at Oliver’s face."He’s the one who did this! He attacked first! We should drag him back to where he belongs—prison! That’s the only place fit for a poor bastard like him!”Oliver growled slowly, his frustration simmering.
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 16. CONFRONTATIONS AND REVELATIONS
“What happened here until a fight like this?” Elena's voice cut through the thick tension in the room. Her sharp gaze fell upon Bryan Hanover, standing rigidly beside Rudolph, whose face was flushed with fury.Bryan responded first, his tone dripping with venom. “Miss Elena, the poor bastard, has made a commotion at my son’s wedding party. He hit all the security officers and caused significant damage. We’ve had enough of this trash, and we’re determined to make the idiot pay for it!”Elena blinked in surprise, her brow furrowing. “You don’t need to speak so rudely, Mr. Hanover,” she reprimanded softly. But the sight before her was shocking—dozens of security guards lay on the floor, unconscious and bruised, each one the victim of a single man’s fists. Oliver.Her chest tightened with disbelief, but deep down, a flicker of admiration blossomed. How could one man, alone, defeat so many? And with such devastating force? She had never seen anything like it. Oliver had always seemed quiet
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 17. THE CLASH OF GIANTS
Bryan’s jaw clenched, his pride bruised. But beneath his anger, a flicker of uncertainty began to grow. Oliver was no ordinary man. And now, Bryan couldn’t shake the feeling that he had underestimated him from the very beginning.“Looks like you really want me to tear your arrogant mouth,” Bryan Hanover hissed, his face red with anger. His voice trembled with rage, the insult from Oliver echoing in his head like a taunting drumbeat.Oliver stood still, his expression calm, unfazed by the threat. His eyes held an eerie calmness, as if the situation was beneath him, a mere annoyance rather than a threat. It was as if he harbored some hidden strength, something Bryan and his men could never fathom.Bryan’s fists clenched, his knuckles whitening as he glared at Oliver. The muscles in his jaw tightened before he barked again, his voice heavy with a deep, rumbling fury.“Today will be the last day you breathe, you garbage! Guards! Kill this bastard now!” he shouted.The order hung in the air
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 18. NERO'S ARRIVAL : SHADOW EMPEROR
“Tonight will be the last day you draw breath," Bryan Hanover hissed with a triumphant grin after he pushed the phone away from his ear.Shortly after the call was made, a group of hundreds of men in black suits, armed with baseball bats, surrounded the entire hotel.The banquet hall door burst open, and twenty muscular, cold-faced bodyguards stormed in. Standing in two neat rows, they held their heads high, chests puffed out, and shouted Nero's name in unison."Long live the great lord NERO!"All the guards cheered in a loud, guttural voice. It made all the guests tremble with fear. Their faces were deathly pale like ants swarming and being doused with water. Everyone who had originally gathered moved away from the area to seek safety. But the tension was not only felt by the guests, but also Elena and Mr. Hoshier who saw how sturdy the guards, Nero's subordinates, were.No one dared to speak a word and the atmosphere became tense with a palpable freeze. Oliver who saw it all just st
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 19. TRASH LIKE THEM
Seeing that Oliver was not afraid of him, a murderous glint appeared in Nero's eyes."Look like you have no fear of me, huh? Don't you know who I am?" Nero's voice was low, but full of threatening and intimidating emphasis."Should I get to know you?" replied Oliver indifferently.Hearing Oliver's words, Mr. Hoshier and Elena panicked to death. Their faces turned even paler. Lord Nero had a bad temper and he was easily offended. Hearing Oliver's remarks he seemed to have no fear and arrogance, which would definitely cause bigger problems if not stopped immediately."Oliver, no... wait..." Mr. Hoshier immediately extended a hand, forcing Oliver back. Now he faced Nero and bowed respectfully. "Mr. Nero, I apologize for the impertinence of his words. He doesn't know you at all, please excuse his ignorance and he is also young," said Mr. Hoshier."Oh, really? A kid like him who can't control his mouth has dared to disturb the Hanover family to the point of summoning me here! Should I just

CHAPTER 159. THE BAIT IS TAKEN
As Oliver stepped out of the café, the wind hit his face, sharp and cool against his skin. The echo of laughter and jeering inside still clung to him, but he forced himself to push it aside. His phone buzzed again, the glow of the screen revealing another message.{You're out of your depth, Roberts. Walk away while you still can.}Oliver clenched his jaw, the muscles in his face tightening. Whoever was behind this wasn’t just intent on humiliating him; they wanted to break him entirely. But if there was one thing Oliver had learned in his years of hardship, it was endurance.His thoughts were interrupted by the sound of hurried footsteps. Turning, he saw James approaching, his expression a mix of worry and urgency."Sir, I got here as soon as I could," James said, slightly out of breath. "I tracked the location of the messages. They’re being routed through multiple servers, but the origin seems to be close by."Oliver raised an eyebrow. "Close by? How close?"James pointed toward the

CHAPTER 158. THE GAME WAS ON
Oliver stared at the message glowing on his phone screen, his jaw tightening as he read the taunting words."Well played, Oliver. But this is far from over."The sender was anonymous, and the lack of context only heightened his sense of urgency. It wasn’t just a threat—it was a promise.He immediately forwarded the message to James with a quick note: "Trace this now."Within moments, his phone rang."Sir, the message’s encryption is advanced," James informed him. "I’ve got our best team working on it, but this might take some time.""Time is a luxury we don’t have," Oliver replied curtly. "Double the manpower if needed. I want answers by the end of the day."Oliver ended the call and leaned back in his chair, his mind racing.Someone wasn’t just targeting Hoshier; they were targeting him personally. Whoever this was, they weren’t going to stop at a failed mole like Simon Prescott.Later that afternoon, Oliver decided to clear his head by visiting a nearby café. It was one of the few p

CHAPTE 157. FAR FROM OVER
Oliver's mind was a flurry of calculations as he left the plaza, his steps purposeful and determined. The air around him buzzed with tension, but his demeanor remained composed, his face a calm mask of control. By the time he reached his sleek black car parked nearby, he had already begun mentally assembling the pieces of the unfolding puzzle.Sliding into the driver's seat, Oliver dialed James again, this time for clarification. The line barely rang before James answered, his tone filled with urgency. "Sir, I've got more information.""Go ahead," Oliver said, leaning back in his seat, his voice steady."The breach originated from someone within Hoshier," James explained. "We’re narrowing down suspects, but whoever it is, they’ve masked their trail well. It’s someone with high-level access or someone who’s been granted temporary permissions."Oliver frowned, his fingers tapping lightly against the steering wheel. "Temporary permissions? Who’s had access recently?"James paused before

CHAPTER 156. MASK OF HORROR
The crowd's murmurs grew louder, with people exchanging shocked glances as Emily Knight's revelation sank in. Logan's once-confident smirk dissolved into a mask of horror, and Vincent looked like he wanted to disappear into the floor.Oliver’s calm demeanor never wavered as he turned to Emily, offering her a polite smile. "Ms. Knight, I appreciate your kind words, but let’s not make this bigger than it needs to be."Emily crossed her arms, her piercing gaze shifting to Logan and Vincent. "Bigger than it needs to be? Mr. Roberts, these men insulted you publicly, dragged your name through the mud, and humiliated you without cause. I believe they owe you more than just an apology."Vincent stammered, his voice trembling. "I-I didn’t know who he was! If I’d known—""Ah," Oliver interrupted, holding up a hand. "So, your behavior depends on who someone is? Tell me, Vincent, if I were just an average man, would that make your actions acceptable?"Vincent’s mouth opened and closed like a fish

CHAPTER 155. GRAVE MISTAKE
Oliver took a deep breath as he stepped out of the mall, letting the tension slide off his shoulders. The sun was shining, the weather was pleasant, and the whispers and chuckles of the bystanders behind him felt like background noise.Yet, he couldn’t leave without having the last word. Turning back, Oliver smiled at Vincent and his entourage, now gathered by the door, still chuckling and exchanging jabs."Mr. Carlisle," Oliver called out, his voice as calm as ever. "Thank you for the free show. I’ll be sure to recommend your impeccable hospitality to all my friends."Vincent smirked, leaning against the doorframe. "Friends? Oh, please. What friends could someone like you possibly have? The rats in the alley?"The group burst into laughter, one of the women holding her stomach as if the joke was too much to bear. Oliver simply raised an eyebrow, his lips curving into a faint smile."You’re right," Oliver replied with mock sincerity. "My friends are humble folk—rats, pigeons, the occa

CHAPTER 154. DELUSIONAL FOOL
Oliver entered the grand lobby of the city's most opulent shopping mall, his polished shoes tapping against the gleaming marble floor. The space was illuminated by an enormous crystal chandelier, and the air was perfumed with an aroma of wealth and exclusivity. He looked around, his calm demeanor masking the storm that was brewing.Near the luxury boutique, a group of customers stood chatting loudly, their laughter echoing through the hall. One of them, a man in his late forties with a sleek suit and a condescending smirk, turned his gaze to Oliver. His eyes scanned Oliver’s modest attire—a simple blazer and slacks."What’s this?" the man sneered, pointing at Oliver as if he were a stray animal. "Who let a beggar in here? This place is for people who can actually afford something, not for someone looking for scraps."The group around him laughed, their chuckles cutting through the air like daggers.Oliver stopped in his tracks and turned toward the man. "Good afternoon," he said polit

CHAPTER 153. REBUILD STRONGER
The sun barely broke through the thick curtains of Oliver’s office when James barged in, phone clutched tightly in his hand. His usual calm demeanor was gone, replaced by an urgency that immediately set Oliver on edge."Thorne’s making his move," James said, placing his phone on the desk and pulling up an email. "He’s called for a major board meeting with Lynwood Tech, one of your key suppliers. He’s planning to sway them to terminate their partnership with Hoshier."Oliver’s jaw clenched. "When?""Tomorrow morning," James replied. "If Lynwood walks, it’ll cause a domino effect. Your other suppliers might follow, and your production lines will come to a halt."Oliver stood, pacing the room. "Do we have proof? Anything concrete to link him to this?"James nodded. "Claire came through. She found a paper trail of shell companies connected to Thorne. They’ve been funding Lynwood’s recent expansion projects. It’s enough to raise suspicions, but we need something undeniable to turn the tide

CHAPTER 152. REVENGE?
James sat across from Oliver, his eyes scanning the latest reports on the screen, but his mind was elsewhere. He had known Oliver for years—long enough to recognize the subtle shifts in his demeanor. Tonight, Oliver was different. The tension in the room was palpable, and James could feel the weight of the new threat bearing down on them."Anything new?" Oliver’s voice broke through his thoughts, low and calculating, as he tapped a pen rhythmically against the table.James shook his head. "Thorne’s network is like a spiderweb, sir. Every time we follow a thread, it leads to another dead end." He paused, his fingers running over the screen. "But one thing’s clear. Thorne’s not just some investor trying to make a quick buck. He’s targeting your entire empire. Not just Hoshier, but everything."Oliver’s gaze never wavered as he stared at the screen, his eyes narrowing. "He thinks he can destroy it all, doesn’t he?"James nodded, his expression tense. "That’s what it looks like. Every mov

CHAPTER 151. PLAYING WITH MONEY
Oliver sat back in his chair, the finality of his Masonry over Mason Phillips settling over him like a heavy, silent storm. The threat was neutralized, for now. But as always, the game wasn’t over. It never was.His gaze wandered to the framed photo of his family on his desk—a reminder of everything he had built, everything he had lost. Katie’s departure had left a wound that never fully healed, a pain he had buried beneath layers of ambition and success. The thought of her, and the way things had ended, still gnawed at him. But he couldn’t afford to dwell on the past. Not when there were more enemies, more schemes, and more pieces to move on the board.The sound of a soft knock broke his thoughts. It was Evelyn, her usual calm demeanor replaced by an edge of concern."Oliver," she began, entering without waiting for permission, "there's something you need to see."She placed a file on his desk, and Oliver could immediately sense the gravity in her tone. Without a word, he opened it,
