The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 84. ALMOST RAPED
"Elena," Adam Cooper greeted her with a sly grin as he opened the door to his lavish penthouse. His gray eyes sparkled with triumph, his demeanor dripping with calculated smugness. "I've been waiting for you."Elena’s lips tightened into a thin line as she stepped inside, her heels clicking against the polished marble floor. The luxurious penthouse boasted floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the glittering city skyline, but the opulence felt suffocating. She didn’t trust Adam for a second. His false charm, the way his grin stretched just a little too wide—it all screamed danger.“I’m here, Adam,” Elena said coldly, crossing her arms over her chest. “Now show me the video. Delete it, and we’ll never have to speak again.”Adam’s grin deepened as he shut the door, locking it with an audible click. “So eager,” he mused, motioning toward the velvet couch in the center of the room. “But where are your manners, Elena? Sit. Relax. Let’s have a drink and... chat a little first.”“I didn’t com
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 85. MY HERO?
As soon as they arrived home, Oliver guided Elena into their bedroom, his hand firm yet gentle on her lower back. The room was dimly lit, its familiar warmth a stark contrast to the nightmare they had just escaped. Elena’s face was pale, her expression a mixture of lingering fear and exhaustion.“Sit down,” Oliver instructed softly, pulling out a chair by the small table near the window. His voice was calm, but his jaw was clenched, the tension in his posture betraying the anger simmering beneath his composed exterior.Elena obeyed silently, lowering herself onto the chair as Oliver moved toward the side table, pouring her a glass of water. He handed it to her, his dark eyes scanning her face with a mixture of concern and restrained fury.“Drink,” he urged. “You need to breathe, Elena. Calm down.”She took the glass, her hands trembling slightly as she sipped the cool water. The silence between them was heavy, each moment stretching uncomfortably. Oliver pulled a chair closer, sitting
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 86. THE REAL OLIVER ROBERTS
Oliver stood in his office, staring out the window with a cold, calculating expression.The destruction of Adam Cooper’s family business, Sinclair Enterprises, was a carefully executed plan—one that had been months in the making. He had made sure to pull every string, sever every tie, and dismantle the empire Adam had built.The legal battles, the financial ruin, the corporate betrayals—all of it had been orchestrated with precision. And it was working. Sinclair Enterprises was crumbling, bit by bit.He turned away from the window and sat at his desk, scrolling through the latest report on the company’s financial collapse. His lips curled into a faint, satisfied smirk.He had done it.Adam Cooper’s arrogance, his disrespect towards Oliver, and most importantly, his actions toward Elena had all led to this.It was a sweet revenge, and yet, the satisfaction of seeing Adam’s world crumble felt hollow. Oliver didn’t revel in the destruction of someone else’s life.But Adam had crossed a l
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 87. WORKING TOGETHER FOR OLIVER ROBERTS' DESTRUCTION
The tension in the boardroom of Hoshier Holdings was palpable. Oliver Roberts, seated at the head of the long, polished oak table, exuded calm authority.His sharp suit and steely gaze commanded respect, even as murmurs of discontent whispered among the executives.Across the table, David Cooper sat with his arms crossed, his expression a mix of defiance and barely concealed resentment.David had been vying for the presidency of Hoshier Holdings for years, convinced that his marriage to Jane, Elena’s half-sister, made him the rightful heir to the empire.However, Mr. Hoshier’s decision to entrust the company to Oliver had been a bitter pill to swallow.David cleared his throat, breaking the uneasy silence."Oliver," he began, his voice smooth but laced with venom, "it’s impressive how quickly you’ve taken the reins of this company. But I can’t help but wonder if your methods align with the legacy Mr. Hoshier intended for his business."Oliver raised an eyebrow, his tone measured."If
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 88. NO MERCY
Tensions at Hoshier Holdings had reached a boiling point. As Oliver worked tirelessly to stabilize the company amidst David’s sabotage, an unexpected complication arose—Jane. Though she had long hidden her disdain behind polite smiles, her true feelings now surfaced. Jane despised Elena for being Mr. Hoshier’s favored daughter and hated Oliver for his success and for, in her eyes, stealing what should have been David’s.Late one evening, in the Fischer estate’s study, Jane paced the room, her anger barely contained. David sat in a leather armchair, watching his wife with a mixture of curiosity and frustration."David, we’ve been too soft," Jane snapped, stopping to glare at him. "Oliver and Elena have humiliated us for the last time. We need to take them down, completely."David sighed, swirling the whiskey in his glass. "I’m already working on it, Jane. The sabotage at Hoshier is—""Not enough!" Jane interrupted, her voice rising. "We need to hit them where it hurts. Their personal l
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 89. FROM RAGS TO RICHES
The glint of the crystal chandelier reflected in the pristine glass walls of Hoshier Tower, where Oliver Roberts sat in his spacious office. His attention was fixed on the screen in front of him, his fingers tapping the edge of the desk as he reviewed the latest reports on the company’s expansion project. A knock on the door interrupted his focus.“Come in,” he called, not looking up.James entered, her expression uneasy. "Sir, there’s been some... chatter in the business circles about you."Oliver frowned, closing his laptop. "Chatter? Be specific."James hesitated before handing him a tablet. The headline on the screen made Oliver’s jaw tighten: "From Rags to Riches: Martin Grayson Slams Oliver Roberts in Scathing Interview."Oliver’s eyes narrowed as he read the accompanying article. Martin Grayson, a man who had climbed the social ladder through his marriage to a wealthy heiress, had publicly insulted Oliver, claiming his success was purely due to his marriage to Elena Hoshier.“‘
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 90. OLIVER'S PARENTS WERE KIDNAPPED!
Oliver had just stepped out of the bathroom, a towel draped over his shoulders, when the sharp ringtone of his phone echoed in the room. He glanced at the screen, and his lips curved into a soft smile as he saw his mother’s name flashing.“Hello, Mom,” he answered warmly, leaning against the wall.“Oliver…”Her trembling voice immediately wiped the smile off his face. His brows furrowed in concern.“Mom? What’s wrong?” he asked, his tone tightening.“Oliver, this morning…” Her voice broke, and he could hear her struggling to steady herself. “Some men… they broke into the house. Big men. They drugged us.”“What?” Oliver snapped, his grip on the phone tightening. “Mom, where are you now? Are you safe?”“I don’t know!” she cried. “Your father and I—we were unconscious. When we woke up, we were in some dark place. They took us, Oliver. They kidnapped us…”“Damn it,” Oliver muttered, his mind racing. “Are you hurt? Did they do anything to you or Dad?”“No, but—” Before she could finish, th
The Awakening Of Oliver Roberts CHAPTER 91. SHADOWS OF VENGEANCE
Nero’s operatives worked swiftly, tracing the threads of Martin Grayson’s activities.Meanwhile, Oliver prepared himself for the inevitable confrontation. He spent the evening pacing his office, his mind filled with a storm of emotions—rage, fear for his parents, and a determination to end Grayson’s game.Elena sat nearby, watching him with worried eyes.“Oliver, you’ve barely eaten all day,” she said softly, holding a plate of food she had brought him. “You need to stay strong.”“I can’t eat, Elena,” Oliver replied, his tone sharp but not unkind. “Not until I know they’re safe.”She sighed and set the plate on his desk.“You won’t be able to fight Grayson if you’re weak.”Oliver stopped pacing and looked at her, his expression softening.“You’re right,” he admitted, pulling out the chair and sitting down. “But this isn’t just about strength. It’s personal. That man dared to touch my family.”Elena placed her hand on his.“I know. But you can’t let your anger cloud your judgment. You’

CHAPTER 206. I LOVE YOU
The ride back was silent. Not because they had nothing to say, but because words felt unnecessary.Elena sat beside Oliver in the car, her fingers resting lightly on her lap. She wasn’t shaking, wasn’t afraid anymore—but the weight of the night still pressed against her.Oliver drove with one hand on the wheel, his other resting on the console between them. His presence alone made her feel safe.After a while, Elena exhaled. “You’re too calm.”Oliver glanced at her, smirking. “Would you rather I panic?”She huffed. “I was kidnapped, Oliver.”“I noticed.”“Held hostage.”“I was there.”“Almost had my throat slit.”Oliver’s jaw tightened just slightly. “And I handled it.”Elena turned to him, studying his profile. His sharp jawline, his unwavering expression.“You always do,” she murmured.Oliver didn’t reply, but his fingers—resting between them—twitched.Elena hesitated, then slowly reached out, linking her pinky with his.Oliver’s hand stiffened for a brief moment.Then, he turned hi
CHAPTER 205. ELENA'S KIDNAPPING.
"Mr. Roberts, we have a problem."Amelia’s voice was sharp over the phone. Oliver had just finished a business meeting when she called, and from the tension in her tone, he knew it wasn’t a minor issue.Oliver exhaled. "Speak."There was a brief pause before she dropped the bombshell."Elena’s been taken."Oliver stopped walking. His fingers tightened slightly around the phone. “Who?”Amelia hesitated. “A man named Vincent Moreau. French arms dealer. One of the last allies Harrington had left.”Oliver’s jaw clenched, but his voice remained calm. “His demands?”“He wants you to transfer fifty percent of Hoshier’s European assets to his name by midnight.”A mistake.Vincent Moreau had no idea who he was dealing with.Oliver inhaled slowly. “Where is she?”“We traced the call to a warehouse in the East District. It’s heavily guarded.”Oliver didn’t hesitate. “Send me the location.”“Sir, I can mobilize our team—”“No.” Oliver’s voice was sharp. “This is personal.”Amelia hesitated but ob
CHAPTER 204. NEVER LOST
“You lost the moment you thought you could use her against me, Calloway.”Oliver’s voice was quiet, almost casual, yet every syllable carried the weight of an undeniable truth.Raymond struggled against Oliver’s grip, but it was useless. His body trembled—not from the physical pain, but from the realization sinking into his bones. He had never stood a chance.Oliver loosened his hold just enough for Raymond to breathe, but his next words made the man’s blood run cold.“Tell me, Calloway… how do you want this to end?”Raymond swallowed, his mind racing. He had no moves left. No allies. No escape.His last shred of arrogance faltered, replaced by raw desperation. “I—I was just following Harrington’s lead. He’s the one who—”Oliver let out a quiet exhale, cutting him off with a simple, measured sentence.“Harrington is already handled.”Raymond’s eyes widened. “What?”A soft buzzing noise filled the room. Oliver reached into his pocket, pulled out his phone, and tilted the screen toward
CHAPTER 203. ERUPTED INTO CHAOS
Raymond’s hands trembled as he scrolled through the endless flood of news reports, each one spelling his doom in bold, damning headlines. His phone buzzed non-stop—calls from investors, board members, and desperate executives, all demanding answers he didn’t have.His breath came in short, sharp gasps. This wasn’t just an attack. This was an execution.His gaze snapped to Elliot Mercer, who remained seated, completely unfazed. The smirk on Elliot’s face sent a wave of rage coursing through Raymond’s veins.“You think this is funny?” Raymond’s voice was hoarse, barely above a growl. “You think I’m just going to sit here and let Oliver destroy me?”Elliot exhaled, setting his drink down with a quiet clink. He leaned back, crossing his legs leisurely. “Oh, you misunderstand, Calloway. It’s not about letting him destroy you. It’s about the fact that you can’t stop him.”Raymond slammed a fist against the bar. The few patrons around them turned to glance, sensing the tension but knowing be
CHAPTER 202. DAMAGE CONTROL
Raymond sat frozen in his chair, his hands clenched into fists as the weight of his downfall pressed down on him like a mountain. His empire, his power—everything he had built over the years had crumbled in mere minutes.His phone buzzed again, and with shaky fingers, he picked it up. A flood of messages from his board members, investors, and executives filled the screen. They were panicking. Some demanded explanations, others threatened to withdraw their support. His assistant sent a message—Mr. Calloway, we need immediate damage control. The media is asking questions.Raymond’s vision blurred as rage bubbled inside him. All because of one man.Oliver Roberts.The name now echoed in his head like a curse.Raymond had underestimated him, just like everyone else had. He had seen Oliver as nothing more than a quiet, unremarkable businessman, someone who got lucky in the corporate world. But now, he understood the truth.Oliver was far from ordinary.Raymond sucked in a sharp breath and f
CHAPTER 201. AN UNMATCHED ENEMY
Raymond’s breath caught in his throat. His palms were damp, his fingers gripping the edge of his desk. Oliver Roberts was here. In his office.He barely had time to compose himself before the door swung open.Oliver walked in with the ease of a man who owned the building, despite the fact that it belonged to Raymond. He was calm, his dark eyes scanning the office without the slightest hint of urgency. He wasn’t here to negotiate. He was here to watch Raymond crumble.Raymond straightened in his chair, masking his nerves with arrogance. “Mr. Roberts,” he greeted coolly, though his voice wavered just enough to betray his unease.Oliver said nothing at first. He merely stepped closer, his gaze locking onto Raymond’s with the weight of something far more dangerous than anger—certainty.“You’ve been quite busy,” Oliver finally said, his tone casual.Raymond forced a smirk. “I like to stay informed about my competitors.”Oliver chuckled, the sound low and unimpressed. “Competitor?” He tilte
CHAPTER 200. WARNING IN PERSON
Raymond Calloway sat frozen, his fingers tightening around the black business card as if it were a ticking time bomb. His expensive watch, his custom-tailored suit—none of it mattered now. He had made the mistake of mocking a man who could wipe his company out of existence with a single decision.The café once filled with his laughter, now felt suffocatingly silent. The people who had been laughing along with him avoided eye contact. His so-called friends shifted uncomfortably, realizing they had aligned themselves with the wrong side.One of them, a man named Darren, coughed awkwardly. “Uh… Ray, man, you good?”Raymond barely heard him. His mind was spinning.Oliver Roberts.The president of Hoshier Corporation.A man who held more power in his hands than Raymond ever could.And he had insulted him. Mocked him. Treated him like some insignificant nobody.His pride burned. His fists clenched. But he wouldn’t apologize.No. He refused to bow.Raymond slammed the business card onto the
CHAPTER 199. UNDERESTIMATE THE WRONG MAN
Horizon Café was unusually crowded that evening. Oliver Roberts sat at a quiet corner table, sipping his black coffee, his fingers lazily tapping against the wooden surface. He had always preferred places like this—quiet, ordinary, unassuming. A place where no one looked twice at a man in a simple dark coat and well-fitted jeans.Unfortunately, not everyone shared his sense of discretion.A loud, arrogant laugh filled the air, followed by the clatter of an expensive watch hitting the table."Look at this," a voice sneered. "Genuine gold, straight from Italy. Have you ever seen something this fine?"Oliver didn't look up. He didn't need to. He already knew the type."Come on, tell me you’ve seen something better," the voice continued, a clear attempt to impress whoever was with him. "I bet you haven't. People like you don’t even know where to get real gold."Oliver exhaled slowly, eyes still fixed on his cup.The voice belonged to Raymond Calloway, a man whose wealth was built on inher
CHAPTER 198. SMART CHOICE
The city lights flickered against the cracked windshield as Oliver drove in silence.Elena kept glancing at him, waiting for a reaction.The attack, the car chase, the cryptic message—most men would be shaken.But Oliver Roberts wasn’t like most men.He didn’t look angry. He didn’t look worried.He looked bored.That terrified her more than anything.Finally, she broke the silence.“That was a message, wasn’t it?”Oliver exhaled through his nose. “It was a test.”Elena frowned. “A test?”Oliver nodded, gripping the steering wheel. “They wanted to see how I’d react. If I panicked. If I ran.”His fingers tapped against the dashboard.“They wanted to see if I was really the man people whisper about.”Elena swallowed. “And?”Oliver smirked. “Now they know.”***They pulled up to a private parking lot.The moment they stepped out, a man in a black suit was already waiting for them.No words were exchanged.Just a nod.Oliver returned the gesture before turning to Elena. “Go home.”Elena’s
