The attendees raised their eyes to the beauty that had just entered, their gazes filled with admiration and envy.Ms. Riley, the secretary, followed, unable to contain her amazement at the event and decorations. Her eyes darted around in wonder at the opulence surrounding them."Ma'am, the decorator is something else," she exclaimed, her voice filled with awe. Amelia ignored her and went straight to meet Fred, her steps graceful and confident as she navigated the crowd."Wow, you look beautiful," he complimented. He leaned in to kiss her forehead.Everyone couldn't stop talking about Fred and Amelia, their presence comman
"Hello, pretty," he stretched his hand to greet Elena, but Amelia yanked it away and shot him a gaze and let out a sharp breath."Uhn, my bad... who are they?" Fred inquired, calm, trying to be a gentle man. Amelia rolled his eyes and hissed.Oliver introduced himself, and offered his hand., "I am Oliver, his ex-husband."He took it slowly, "Wow, she had a husband, she never told me that," he said and shifted his gaze to Amelia, who was looking away."She must have her reasons," Fred added. Hearing this, she immediately chimed in, "Thanks, babe, for understanding. I don't want you to know that I was once married to a smug, a lowlife, a man without a background.""Really!" Fred exclaimed."Yeah, look at him, he is so poor and has no shame. He hired a lady to disgrace me on our divorce day. Now he is dating his boss, whom they had been cheating behind me.""Really, I had no idea someone could be that horrible," Fred stated.Oliver scoffed, "You keep saying things to console yourself whe
Everywhere was in chaos and unsettled, everyone talking about what just happened, while Oliver sipped his wine, and Elena beside him.Amelia walked to him, "Are you now happy for what you just do? You just ruin my day."Oliver chuckled, "How did I? Again, you are pushing the blame on me.""Are you not the one that hinted the police to come and arrest him?" she demanded furiously."I did nothing actually, all I did was hint them about his illegal activities. I did not tell them to come to the party," Oliver stated."Can we talk in private?" she requested.Oliver nodded, "No, I don't see any reason we should be talking. I don't want to have anything to do with you again.""Why are you proving to be stubborn? I am trying to help you here," she frustratingly said."Really, then say it here.""Okay, if you insist, Oliver, I know you are lingering around the woman here because of money. I'm going to give you $10 million dollars!" she said, confident that Oliver would take the bait.Oliver si
The soft rays of the morning sun filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow across Amelia's room as she groaned softly, her eyelids fluttering open. As consciousness slowly returned to her, she felt a heaviness weighing down her limbs, and her head throbbed with a dull ache.she struggled to get up, and sat up on the bed holding her head. she felt very tired, and empty headed.Dragging herself to the bathroom, she Turned on the faucet, she splashed cold water onto her face. just then, Images flashed before her mind's eye: Oliver's tense confrontation with Fred, the shattered glass of the car window, and the "what?, yeah, I could remember, I saw Oliver, what the hell is he fighting Fred for", she uttered to herself.Leaning against the sink, she closed her eyes, just then, she could heard someone pressing the intercom. she made her way to the door, walking like a zombie and checked who it was on the monitor, it was Fred.she opened the door for him."Hello, good morning, how a
Elena exhaled heavily as she watched Oliver leave. She turned back, walked straight to her office, and sat down, wondering how to get Oliver back. Just then, the door burst open as one of the staff rushed in."What the hell is the matter? You can't even knock!" she yelled, startled. The female staff bowed, "I am sincerely sorry, ma'am, but this is urgent. The board leaders are currently having a meeting without you," she stated."Meeting? Who's heading it? How could they?" Elena frowned.The staff put on a confused expression, "I don't know, ma'am. but it I think it is my Collins."Elena stood up and dashed out, with the female staff rushing after her. She dashed straight to the meeting room, and truly all the board leaders were there.Even though they were talking before, as soon as she entered, they all fell silent. She scanned them all, and her supposed seat where she should sit was occupied by Mr. Collins, the director of the board leaders."What's going on right here?" she chuckl
Alex's face twisted with anger. "You're making a grave mistake, Elena. Mother will not stand for this."Elena met his gaze with steely determination. "The grave mistake mom would do is making you the company's CEO, and I will make her understand.""Oh, she'll understand, alright. She'll understand that her own daughter is tearing apart the family legacy!" Alex retorted, his voice dripping with scorn.Elena's resolve remained unshaken. "Calm down, Alex. Why are you in pain?"Alex scoffed, shaking his head in disbelief. "Are you doing this because of that lowlife? Do you think he can protect you, Elena?"Mr. Collins's face flushed with anger, his fists clenched as he slammed his hand on the table. "This is preposterous! As far as I'm concerned, this lowlife dirty human here, or whatever his name is, will not be a staff, let alone a board leader in this company!"The other board members nodded in agreement, muttering their support for Mr. Collins's stance."He's a nobody, a thug. We can'
Elena and Oliver were in the office. Elena on her seat and Oliver opposite her. Elena couldn't stop talking about how cool Oliver was."Wow, you came in like a superman," she said, smiling bashfully."Is that my work here as your personal assistant?" Marcus jokingly stated. Elena scoffed, "Okay, okay, where should we start from?""Let's start from the company's reputation. It was investigated, and investors are being careful. They don't want to invest in a company undergoing an investigation," Oliver started.Elena smiled, "Yeah, this. I've missed it. I've missed you, You always have a solution.""Let's be professional, ma'am," Oliver stated. Elena nodded slowly.Just then, the door flung open, and Mrs. James stormed in."Mom," Elena stated, and Oliver turned to her. In a sudden, Mrs. James delivered Oliver a hot, soundful slap that resonated through the room."How dare you, you filthy animal!" she screamed at him."What the hell do you think you are doing, Mom!" Elena hauled at her m
Oliver raised an eyebrow, trying to contain his surprise. "That's funny, you know.""Yeah, it is funny, but really important, Oliver," Elena stated."I think this situation is already chaotic enough without adding a marriage into the mix," he said.Elena's expression remained resolute. "I'm serious, Oliver. I need you. You heard what Mr. Liam just said. I need to get married to get my assets before Mother does something stupid. Please, I really need you," she insisted, her voice steady despite the turmoil in her heart.Oliver chuckled incredulously. "Boss, this is getting more serious, but it can't happen. I can't be married by you. You know your family will even kill you if they hear about it," he countered, trying to reason with her.But Elena's gaze was unwavering. "I know it sounds impulsive, but I trust you, Oliver. You've been by my side through this mess, and I can't think of anyone else I'd rather have as my partner in this. I don't have any boyfriend or fiance, this is just s
Oliver watched as Amelia left the company, feeling embarrassed. Being replaced by Oliver as the temporary CEO was one of the worst things to happen to her.Sophia, who was beside Oliver, uttered, "I can't understand why she would hate you for doing good."Oliver scoffed, "I don't understand either. I wonder what her reaction would be if she found out I am the real CEO."As Sophia was about to respond, her phone rang. It was from the assistant general of Goldanigia. Surprised, she picked it up."Hello," she started, then listened attentively to what he was saying. Suddenly, she shouted, "What! How... what happened?"Oliver turned to her, his face furrowed in concern, wondering what was happening.Sophia's hand trembled as she lowered the phone, her expression grave. "Mr. Davis l... he's dead. Killed," she whispered.Oliver's eyes widened in disbelief. "Dead? How... who would do such a thing?"Sophia shook her head, her voice shaky. "I don't know... the assistant general said he was fou
"Today is my birthday," Riley announces, her expression tinged with a mix of surprise and disappointment that I didn't remember. my mind has been preoccupied with thoughts of revenge lately. "Oh, I nearly forgot," I exclaim, trying to make up for my oversight. "Tell me, what would you like today?" With a seductive look, she moves closer and plants a kiss on my lips.

"Sorry I'm late," she says as she takes her seat, but
Oliver and Elena walked side by side inside the Goldanigia company. Oliver was here so she could get to buy shares with them, due to the rumors spreading that Goldanigia has a 100% profit assurance. People have been testifying, so she also wanted to buy some shares.As they both entered the company, just then, in a sudden, someone stepped on Elena's foot and kept walking. She raised her head in anger, and even without seeing the person's face, she immediately knew it was Amelia. How could she do something like that and not care? She was mad and couldn't hold it as she stormed at her even before Oliver could stop her.

Elena's voice was heated, her eyes flashing with anger as she confronted Amelia.Amelia smirked. "Oh, did I hurt your precious little foot? My apologies, sweetheart," she taunted, her tone dripping w
Tom's POV Let me express the sentiment that being a billionaire entails a remarkable level of control and influence, where one possesses the ability to command anything they desire and have it at their disposal, essentially reigning supreme. This extraordinary feeling currently permeates my being. With an air of elegance, I descend majestically from my luxurious car, its door promptly opened for me. The staff members, already lined up, eagerly await my arrival. Flanking me are two bodyguards, standing steadfastly by my side, as well as my ever-loyal secretary, Riley, who is the very reason I find myself in this place. As I pass through the line of staff members, making my way into the office, I inquire about the state of affairs from Riley. "How are things?" I ask with a sense of authority. She responds with a smile, assuring me that everything is going according to plan. Then she adds, "Sky lord wants to see you." Having just returned, I hope that no problems have arise

She can't help but express her concern, saying, "Oh no," as she approaches him, gently guiding him to take a seat. Max follows suit, pulling up a chair and joining them in the room. With genuine gratitude, Mrs. Ray turns to Max and says, "Thank you, Max."

Mr. Ray's habit of drinking is consistently ruined by bad news. Today, not only did he stop drinking, but he also angrily smashed the cup. ' "Who the hell came to her rescue?'' he groaned, and his wife immediately picked up the pieces. ''I... I don't know, they are sort of gangs,'' he stammered.
