The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 42. WEDDING DAY
It was Oliver and Elena's wedding day. The event was hosted in the Grand Albaret Hotel, a prestigious five-star hotel in the heart of the city. All around, important officials, actors, business moguls, and other distinguished guests filled the hall, mingling and observing the lavish affair with awe. "This is the Hoshier wedding, after all," one woman whispered to her friend, her eyes glancing over the decorations with a trace of envy. "I suppose they spared no expense.”Yet, amid the celebrations, conversations took a sour turn whenever the groom’s name was mentioned."Can you believe she’s marrying that man?" another guest murmured, raising an eyebrow. "Oliver may be marrying into the Hoshier family, but he’s hardly worthy. I mean, he’s just a man fresh out of prison!"A suited businessman scoffed, “Elena deserves better—someone like Antonio Casappa, a real man of power. The kind who’s earned his wealth and has a reputation to match.”Heads nodded in agreement as Antonio Casappa’s n
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 43. FALSE ALLEGATIONS
"Oliver, no need to entertain him," Elena said firmly, her hand gripping his arm, trying to pull him away. Her voice wavered slightly, betraying her unease.Antonio laughed, pointing mockingly. "Look at him, hiding behind his wife's skirt! A man like that has no right to be called a husband.""That’s enough, Antonio!" Elena’s voice cut through the noise, her cheeks flushed with anger.But Antonio’s expression darkened at her defiance, his eyes narrowing with contempt."How dare you raise your voice at me because of that pathetic fool? I’ll make sure you pay for this disrespect, Elena."A flicker of anger crossed Oliver’s usually calm face as he stepped forward, positioning himself between Elena and Antonio.“Apologize to her,” he said, his tone steady yet resolute.Antonio sneered, unbothered by Oliver’s demand. "Apologize? To her? Do you really think I’d lower myself for someone like you?"Oliver’s eyes held a calm warning. “You’ll regret this.”“Regret?” Antonio’s laugh was sharp, h
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 44. CORNERED
Everyone there was shocked, not least, Mr. Hoshier and Elena who listened to Oliver's voice on the recording shown by Rudolph.They could clearly hear Oliver talking to someone and revealing his plan to marry Elena by approaching Mr. Hoshier.Everything that happened before was a plan that had been made by Oliver so that Oliver could easily take all the property from the Hoshier family. Even in the recording, Oliver said he would kill Mr. Hoshier after Oliver got all his property and divorced Elena."Disgusting...""It turns out that she had planned such a cunning thing just to take all of Mr. Hoshier's property.""They were even married.""But at least they found out about Oliver's crime earlier.""Elena should divorce him immediately before it's too late!""What a shameless man!"Everyone started gossiping about Oliver. They scoffed with looks of disgust and disbelief.Meanwhile, Rudolph, Katie, and Antonio were grinning, full of triumph in their hearts.Antonio didn't know who Rudo
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 45. SHOCKING ANNOUNCEMENT!
“You seem rather nervous, Rudolph,” Oliver said, his voice quiet but cutting, eyes narrowing as he approached the man who had tried so viciously to ruin him.Mr. Hoshier’s expression darkened as he stared at Rudolph.“Is this true, Rudolph? Did you fabricate this… to harm Oliver and my family?”Rudolph stammered, his composure crumbling under Mr. Hoshier’s scrutinizing gaze.“N-no, Mr. Hoshier, you’ve got to believe me. I wouldn’t—”“But you did,” Desmond interjected smoothly. “The recording is indeed altered to imitate Mr. Oliver’s voice, but it is not authentic.”Antonio, who had been watching with mounting unease, took a step back, trying to distance himself from the scheme."I—I didn't know! I thought it was real!"Oliver let out a quiet chuckle, his calm gaze falling on each of them. “It appears the truth reveals itself, no matter how cleverly you try to hide it.”Katie looked at Rudolph, her face paling as she saw the fury on Mr. Hoshier’s face.“Rudolph, you—you told me this wa
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 46. CHALLENGE TO THE TOP
"I disagree and will not let that happen!" shouted David Cooper, his voice sharp and indignant.All heads turned in shock. David, Mr. Hoshier's son-in-law, and husband of Jane Hoshier, stood beside his wife, both visibly seething. The room filled with tension, the festive air of the evening quickly slipping away. Mr. Hoshier, taken aback, approached them calmly."Daddy, are you crazy?!" Jane yelled, her face flushed with anger."That is my decision, Jane," Mr. Hoshier replied, his voice steady yet unyielding."No, I won’t let it happen!" she spat out.Jane’s mother had passed a few years prior, leaving Jane bitter and resentful. Since then, she had moved in with David, fueled by a fierce hatred for Elena, Mr. Hoshier’s eldest daughter from his first marriage. Jane had expected Elena’s life to be one of constant struggle after marrying Oliver, a man she considered to be below her family’s standards. Now, hearing her father’s announcement, her fury only grew.“Jane…” Mr. Hoshier started
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 47. THE PROMISE OLIVER MADE.
Starting that day, Jane and David moved into the Hoshier family mansion. And as Elena’s husband, Oliver was there too. For Oliver, it was nothing short of stepping into a lion’s den. Jane and David, Elena's stepsister and her husband, seemed to find every chance to hurl insults and mockery at him, lacing their words with venom.At the breakfast table, Oliver sat beside Elena for the first time, joining the Hoshier family meal as a son-in-law. The tension in the room was palpable."Should we really be eating at the same table as a beggar like him?" Jane sneered, glaring at Oliver with contempt.Oliver said nothing, his expression calm as he picked up his utensils. Elena, however, wasn’t as restrained. She shot a sharp glance at Jane."Watch your mouth, Jane. He is my husband."Jane scoffed, her lip curling as if she’d tasted something bitter.“A husband? For you, maybe. But for me, he’s a disgrace, an embarrassment to our family’s name.”David chuckled, leaning back in his chair as if
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 48. VIP GOLD CARD
Oliver entered the luxurious jewelry store, the soft gleam of overhead lights bouncing off display cases filled with precious stones and metals. The allure of wealth was in every detail: the polished marble floors, the elegant glass cases, and the rare gemstones shimmering within.But one piece caught his eye, a brilliant blue diamond at the far end of the room. Its deep, mesmerizing hue reminded him of the promise he had made to Mr. Hoshier, a promise he intended to keep.As he approached the counter, he recognized a familiar face. Amber, an old friend from school, was managing the showroom with a poised, sharp gaze.She hadn’t changed much—her features were still striking, though her expression now bore a hint of arrogance he hadn’t noticed before. Oliver’s heart pounded slightly as he decided to approach her, hoping their past connection might lend him a bit of luck.“Amber,” he greeted, trying for a friendly tone. “It’s been a while.”Amber glanced up from her work, her eyes widen
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 49. A TWIST OF FATE
“Sir! I apologize for my bad attitude towards you!” Mr. Giles shouted while kneeling in front of him.His voice trembled with urgency, echoing through the luxurious jewelry store. Amber, who had just seconds ago been mocking Oliver, was now frozen in shock, her mouth slightly agape as she processed the scene unfolding before her.“I am really sorry…. I didn’t know. Please forgive me!” Mr. Giles continued, his forehead almost touching the polished marble floor as he remained prostrate, refusing to raise his head.Amber felt the heat rise to her cheeks. “Mr. Giles, but he is just a poor man. I have known him since school—”“You!” Mr. Giles snapped, fury flashing in his eyes.He rose swiftly, the sound of his palm striking Amber's cheek reverberating like a gunshot in the quiet store.You bitch!” he spat, his voice low but laced with venom.Amber screamed, her hand flying to her cheek as she stumbled back in disbelief. Pain spread from his cheeks, lips, and even her heart.“Mr. Giles…”“

CHAPTER 163. THE COST OF DECEIT
The air in the lounge grew stiflingly tense, the weight of Oliver’s revelation sinking into every corner. Adrian, still reeling from the shock, opened his mouth to speak but found no words. His once-confident smirk had vanished, replaced with a pale mask of fear. Nathan, ever the opportunist, tried to regain composure, but his nervous shifting betrayed him.Oliver’s steady gaze swept over the group, lingering just long enough to unsettle each of them. Then, with an air of calm authority, he gestured for James to approach."James," Oliver said, his voice slicing through the silence. "Show me the evidence."James handed Oliver a sleek tablet, his expression resolute. "We’ve secured video footage and documentation proving that certain individuals in this room have been engaging in activities to undermine Hoshier Company’s reputation."Gasps rippled through the crowd. Adrian stiffened, sweat forming on his brow. Nathan raised an eyebrow, feigning indifference but clearly rattled.Oliver t

The Unveiling Of Power
The night air in Oliver’s penthouse was heavy with anticipation. The message from Evelyn had left a lingering tension that no amount of strategy could entirely dispel. Lucas and James had gone back to their respective tasks, leaving Oliver alone with his thoughts. He leaned against the balcony railing, looking down at the sprawling city below, his mind racing through possibilities.Suddenly, his phone buzzed again. Another message.{Enjoy your view while you still can.}Oliver’s jaw clenched. This was more than just psychological warfare; Evelyn was baiting him, daring him to react. He returned to the living room, dialing Lucas."Lucas, change of plans," Oliver said curtly. "I want you to focus all efforts on tracing Evelyn’s messages. They’re coming too frequently for her to be hiding her location effectively."Lucas sighed on the other end. "We’re already working on it, but she’s good, Oliver. Whoever she’s hired to mask her communications knows their stuff. It’s going to take time.

CHAPTER 161. TICK TOCK!
The tension in Oliver’s office was a thick, almost tangible thing. Lucas had taken a seat in the corner, reviewing security logs on a laptop James had handed him. James himself was working tirelessly, tapping away on his own device, coordinating with the IT team to bolster the system’s defenses. Oliver stood by the window, staring out at the city skyline, his mind racing.Another buzz from his phone snapped him out of his thoughts. It was yet another message."Tick tock, Roberts. Time’s running out."Oliver turned to Lucas, holding up the screen. "She’s toying with us. What does she gain by sending these messages?"Lucas barely glanced up from the laptop. "Control. She’s letting you know she’s always one step ahead. It’s psychological warfare, designed to rattle you."Oliver smirked. "She’ll have to do better than that."James sighed, rubbing his temple. "I wish I had your confidence. Right now, we’re playing defense, and she knows it. If we don’t move quickly, she’ll gain the upper h

CHAPTER 160. THE FIRST MOVE IN A DEADLY GAME
Oliver leaned back in the seat of his car, the city lights casting fleeting shadows over his face. His mind churned, replaying every word Evelyn had said, her veiled threats, and the smug confidence she radiated. He wasn’t sure yet who she worked for, but one thing was clear—this wasn’t over.James broke the silence. "Sir, Evelyn's operation feels bigger than it looks. The layers of shell companies, her arrogance... She’s either incredibly well-backed or she’s bluffing to throw us off."Oliver rubbed his temples, feeling the weight of the situation settle on his shoulders. "Either way, we can’t ignore her. Have you started pulling the background on Evelyn? I want to know everything: her connections, finances, past involvements."James nodded. "Already on it. My team is tracing every thread. It’ll take time, but we’ll uncover her network."Oliver’s phone buzzed again, drawing his attention. Another message."You’re persistent, Roberts. Let’s see how far that gets you."Oliver stared at

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
