Sheiley could not choose her reactions as she stood there groundless. What had just happened was beyond her comprehension. No matter how hard she tried to understand the situation, she couldn't just bring herself to it. She couldn't even turn to watch as Cory drag Elaine away. Cory had just beaten fifty men in the blink of an eye. How in the world was that even possible? Not only that, after Cory was done beating the men, he had also referred to the beautiful and popular Elaine as his slave. Did Cory know Elaina? If so, how the hell did he get to know her to be able to refer to her as such? Or could it be that Sheiley was hearing things?This series of confusion ended up giving Sheiley a strong headache. The groaning sounds coming from the fifty men distracted her, knocking her out of the troubling thoughts. When she lifted her gaze, she saw Harry struggling to get back on his feet. She quickly hurried to him. Harry was her main priority as it stood. "Where is he? That crazy ba
The call had been dropped, but Harry was still hanging on to what his father had just said. Anna, the only daughter of Lord Theo, now has a boyfriend? A man with supernatural qualities?Although Harry has never known Anna personally, he had read about her. There were several articles published by anonymous sources about the private life of Anna. Anna was said to be the kind of lady who leads a celibate lifestyle. She never associated herself with young men, no matter the status and connections of their fathers. Nor how rich the man was. In short, Anna had almost set a company on fire because she refused to be an arranged wife for a notable trillionaire. Many people had concluded that she wanted to remain this way because she was training her heart to be cruel in order to inherit the Mafia legacy of her father. But now, his father had just told him that Anna finally got a boyfriend?!What were the odds? Who was he? He definitely must be a god come down from the heavens. "Who could
Cory looked down at himself and realised why Elaine had been swept off her feet. All though he was now buff and well chiseled, he wasn't used to it yet. If he was, he probably wouldn't have removed his clothes right there, and then. "You don't know what you are talking about." Cory brushed off what she had said. Why would anyone in their right mind offer to serve another person for the rest of their lives?"Please don't take me for a fool." Elaine walked closer to Cory, looking really concerned. "I mean it. Don't take my words for a joke." She kept walking until she was close enough to him. She reached out to one of her hands to touch his carved chest. She could see his flesh heaving to the beat of his heart. She wanted to touch his chest with the tip of her finger. Cory grabbed her hand, stopping her finger from touching him. She looked up at him. "Is this real?" She asked, looking genuinely confused and interested. At this point, Cory really couldn't pretend not to be interes
The next morning, Anna was in the backseat of her Maybach talking over the phone with her father, Lord Theo. "Anna, you do know that you are not in the state to move around." The voice of a concerned Lord Theo was heard on the other end of the phone. "You don't have to worry, Father. I'm fine. Cory made sure that I was fine and you could testify to it, too. Throughout the night, I didn't have that ruthless coughing session. That's the first time ever." Anna tried to convince her father. There was silence on the other end for a while. Then a sigh. "Still, you have to be careful. You are the only one I got. Aside from the fact that someone has to inherit all my wealth, I don't want you for any kind of stress. You know this, too. You know that if you want the whole university in your room, I will make it happen." Lord Theo urged. Anna chuckled at what he said. "Who would believe that the most feared Mafia Lord in the whole country is talking so sweetly?" Anna teased. "Silly girl."
Anna was standing next to the Maybach. It would seem as though she was looking at the door of the penthouse, but she was staring at the other direction. Like using a side eye. Elaine was at the door of the penthouse waiting for Cory to come out. Cory had gone to take a bath and get dressed for the place Anna was taking him to. The door was pushed open, and Cory stepped out. Elaine was still wearing what she wore last night. She was even yet to take a bath. Cory walked past Elaine, heading towards Anna. Elaine followed him from behind. "Sorry for keeping you waiting, I should have gotten ready before now." Cory apologized as he got to Anna. Anna didn't necessarily say a word. In short, her attention was not really spent on Cory. Instead, she seemed to be busy looking at Elaine, who had stopped behind Cory. "Where is she going?" Anna asked with contempt, looking from Elaine to Cory. Cory turned to see Elaine standing right before him. "I'm coming with you." Elaine said straight
Anna was way too gobsmacked to react. Her fragile jaws had fallen to the floor, and she was reluctant to pick them up. As soon as Cory had said those words, he turned to open the door. Anna quickly reached out and grabbed his arm. She stopped him from opening the door. Cory froze in the act, unable to continue with what he was about to do. He turned slowly to look at her. "I'm sorry." Anna said softly to him. Her words were so soft and effective. Her tone was surreal, and her facial expression to match. She hadn't only said the words, but her blue eyes emphasized how much she meant them. Cory sighed. He loved it when someone accepted their wrongs and apologized. He was glad that Anna broke her ego and did this. "I shouldn't have said that to you. It was unreasonable of me." Anna added. The driver was obviously fuming at the front seat. He knew how powerful Anna was. Why the hell would she apologize to someone like Cory? If he was left alone with a choice, he probably would be b
"Dona! Dona!" Harry screamed on the call, putting the phone to his face to see what was wrong. "Did she hang up on me? She did?" Harry eyes bulged at the sockets as he muttered. "What the hell is wrong with her? Why would she hang up on me? How dare she!" He gritted his teeth, fiddling with the screen of the phone. He dialed the number again and waited for it to go through. He was all shaky and jumpy. He couldn't hide how restless he was. The call connected. "Why did you hang up on me?!" He barked. "Perhaps I should hang up again." Dona's voice came over the speaker in a retort. "Wait. Wait, don't hang up." He called in a haste. There was silence on the other end for a while. "Did you really say that Anna would be coming over to the party?" Harry asked in disbelief. "I didn't stutter bro, you heard me just right." Dona snapped. Harry was furious at the way the way she was retorting, but he couldn't really act on the rage. At that moment, he needed her more than she needed h
The driver of the car stepped out and hurried to the side. Before he could get to the door, the door had been pushed open. Cory stepped out of the car and walked to the other side to get the door for Anna. Anna gazed at him with a smile after she stepped out. "Thank you." She muttered, staring at him. "Hey, Anna." Dona interrupted the two. Anna reluctantly looked away from the stiff face of Cory to the person who had interrupted her. "Dona?" Anna asked, a warm smile building in the corner of her lips. "Yes, Anna. It's me, Dona." Dona exclaimed excitedly, pushing herself into Anna without warning. She hugged Anna before Anna could even see it coming. She seemed quite jumpy and really excited to see Anna. Anna was flushed by how excited Dona was. "I'm glad that I'm finally meeting you. It has always been a dream to meet the mysterious daughter of the great and mighty Lord Theo. You have no idea how popular this would make me." Dona didn't hide any of the feelings she was nursing
