Oliver could easily retaliate to the slap Chloe gave him but he respected himself and kept his cool. Chloe was still looking at him and attempted to slap him again when Zora clutched her hand."Who the heck do you think you are to raise your hands on my husband? Don't ever try such a thing!"Zora said to her and they stared at each other angrily. Chloe didn't seem to be mad at Zora but at Oliver instead. She pushed Zora away and said angrily"You expect me not to pin the blame on this trash you called a husband? He is at fault here so he deserves the taste of his medicine!""How is Oliver at fault, huh? Do you blame him for saving your life? How ungrateful people can be..."Zora said immediately after Chloe who chuckled and walked closer to Oliver. She was glaring at him as if he were her junior sibling. "You almost signed the divorce papers but this fool in the form of a house husband interrupted and made you not to continue with your plans!""I did that for you, Chloe! I stopped Zo
Oliver was surprised after seeing Edwin, Sophie, and a few of his friends. He didn't expect him to be a close ally of Alexander so seeing how they stared at each other, Oliver was baffled."Long time no see! Why are you so tense? Did you just see a ghost?"Edwin said and his friends giggled. Oliver made up his mind that he'd ignore them as well as their teases but they didn't seem to be in the mood of friendship.One of Sophie's friends, Cassandra, walked to Sophie and inquired"Isn't he Zora's husband, the one they say he feeds on Zora's salary?"They all looked at each other Oliver didn't bother looking at her to know how she looked. He kept his head bowed after making up his mind not to create a scene or pick up unnecessary arguments with ththemhich would lead to him embarrassing them."Of course, he is the one! Who else feeds on his wife's income except Oliver Smith... At times, I do wonder why Zora picked a garbage like this teenager and called him her husband! How stupid she cou
While still wondering where his phone could be, Oliver took a look at all the guests staring at him. It was like a battle of the mind and once he loses to this challenge, all his threats will be nothing, and any day he will speak rudely to anybody, nobody will believe him. Alexander was the happiest man on earth at that moment as his target had fallen into his trap. Oliver's silence explained his downfall. Edwin was over the moon following the fact that Oliver couldn't utter a word or beat his price! "What happened to you, our brave teenager? Cat cut your tongue?" Edwin said and giggled. He walked away from his current position to another spot still beside Oliver and burst into laughter. Uncontrollable laughter which dragged others to join him in laughing including Miranda who was happy seeing how Oliver was humiliated. Edwin turned to the crowd and echoed "You see? Did you see that everyone? He claimed to be the savior and the unbeatable Oliver Smith when he can't even beat $ 6
Alexander couldn't believe what he was seeing! How possible was all this? What he expected this be a very big slap on Oliver's face turned out against him and his ally.Edwin was still shit of words, he didn't know what time sat to Oliver as $1 billion is a huge amount of money and he can't pay that within that frame of time! He'd need some assistance and proper preparation which he was sure Alexander wouldn't offer him!Should he just accept defeat and hand over his $100 million to Oliver? But that would be a big slap on his face! He didn't know what to do.His supporters were still lost in surprise including his wife and her friend who wasn't expecting that from Oliver.Cassandra said out loud"Come on, Edwin, don't tell me you are scared of this brat here! Prove him wrong by doubling his bet!"Sophie smartly pinched Cassandra urging her to keep quiet but Cassandra moved away from her turning a deaf ear."Edwin, don't tell me you're scared!""Will you just shut up for once? I am in
"This is not possible!"Edwin exclaimed to himself before stepping down from the stage. The guests were surprised just like Edwin and his family members. He ignored Oliver and walked straight to Michael Vale."What do you mean by that? Are you trying to tell me that you have called off this promotion?""Far from calling off this promotion, you are no longer a member of Q group! We have canceled your name as well as your company name from our list! As a punishment for violating the rules of Q group, you are hereby charged with the sum of ten billion dollars charges for consolation and adjustment!"Michael Vale responded and Sophie's head almost busted!Edwin didn't know how to welcome this news so he burst into laughter. Everyone present there was part of Q group. Either they have a rank there or they are still novices.They know that whatever warranted Michael Vale's presence is a serious case.While Edwin tried to pull himself together, Alexander was calculating how luck always flies
Oliver was surprised after hearing what Alexander said. He didn't understand what he meant by 'unexpected gifts at dawn'.What plans does he have against Oliver? What could he be thinking that gave him so much courage and what gifts was he talking about?Oliver had to be one step ahead of his enemies in all the he did but this time around, it seemed as though his enemies were three steps ahead of him.He was still lost in thoughts when Edwin pushed him"Get the heck out of my house! You and your family are nothing but bad luck!"He said but Chloe stepped out and attacked Edwin"Please learn how to make use of your words. When you say bad luck, we all know the only bad luck in our midst and that is Oliver Smith! Don't mistake the Carson family for his misfortune!"Edwin was still angry that he didn't want to hear a dime from anyone not even Chloe. He urged them to leave his house but Miranda stepped out and said"Now, you all know that W group is not a Group to mess with! You shouldn't
Oliver doesn't know what to give to Zora and Miranda in response to the question they asked him. The way stared at him seemed as though they suspected him; especially Miranda who already decided that Oliver was into illegal things judging from the way he stared at them."Cat cut your tongue? Will you give us a response already?"Miranda jolted Oliver from his deep thoughts. But he was still silent ringing the alarm in Miranda's head that he is a born criminal."You don't have to say anything because you are a criminal! Just wait, I will call the police and alarm them that you are a big-time thief!"Miranda said before Oliver responded"Hold on!""Then you start explaining where and how you got that huge amount of money!"Miranda said immediately after Oliver. Zora and Oliver exchanged looks. Oliver could tell what Zora's looks explained. It tried to tell him not to lie to her but he had no choice. He has to do this for them that's why he said to Miranda"The $1 billion wasn't mine. I
Oliver found it difficult to believe what was going on there. The way they all stared at him, it looked as if he was framed and ganged up by the new family members.Clint was twice Oliver's age. He is Clarissa's son, while Marvel was in his late 20's. He is the son of a family friend but grew to be a very strong member of the Carson family. Uncle Vix is Ronald Carson's son and is very strict. His hatred for Oliver can be traced to when he {Oliver} got Zora pregnant.While still understanding the matter at hand, Oliver was extremely baffled."Money Laundering? I don't understand!"He inquired but one of the cops responded"You don't have the right to speak. You have the power to employ a lawyer to fight your case, and if you don't have a lawyer, the government will provide one for you! Handcuff him!"They all grinned at Oliver as he was being handcuffed. Zora was quick to arrive at the scene to see the cops handcuffing her husband.Baffled, she inquired"What is going on here? Why is O
