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
Elena arrived at the hotel, dressed in a full-length gown, and used a scarf to cover her face, so she could be unidentified. She stayed at the front of the hotel waiting for Eden. After some minutes, Eden arrived as he briskly board down from a taxi. He instantly saw Elena and walked towards her.He scoffed, "Wow, I nearly don't see you with this your dress. Anyway, you are beautiful in it, and I am sure you will be more beautiful when naked."Elena stared at him, then uttered, "You are so horrible, very horrible. I knew from the first time that you don't love me, you just want to have sex with me."Eden spread his hand, "Yeah, and I am getting it tonight. Let's go in and begin with it already.""Call your father in my presence first and tell him to leave Oliver for the moment," Elena demanded."Don't you trust me? Your boyfriend is safe, as long as you don't defy me," Eden snapped at her."I want to confirm and be assured, call your father," Elena stood her ground."Ash, you are so s
As Eden grinned, anticipating Elena to undress, the tension thickened in the room. Just as Elena was about to comply, the door flung open, and there stood Oliver.Eden's smile faded instantly, replaced by a mix of shock and fury. "What... what, what are you ...?" he bellowed, scrambling to cover himself.Oliver's gaze bore into Eden. "It seems I just spoiled your enjoyment."Elena's eyes widened in relief and disbelief as she rushed towards Oliver, "Oliver..., you are safe.""Yeah, and you should have just wasted your pride on this animal," Oliver stated, and then Sophia entered followed by other soldiers. They all bowed for him, "Sir...""Take him away," Oliver prompted. Elena was surprised by the way Oliver was commanding the soldiers.Eden popped his eyes in disbelief. "How dare you do this? Who are you? How dare you order some people to just take me away?""Because I can simply do that," Oliver answered. Eden frowned, confused and furious. What could have made Oliver control soldi
The family members hurriedly signed the file, while Fred grinned; his cunning plan was working. After they had all signed the file, Fred collected it all and packed it back into the yellow envelope."Okay, yeah, sorry this is little, I don't prepare much when coming," he said and brought out another envelope, with a sum of 1 million dollars. With this, he would gain their trust; this would be little compared to what he would scam out of them.Kyle immediately grabbed it, "Wow, you gave us all this.""Yeah, sorry it is little," he politely said, in his wolf's clothing.Ms. Cynthia chimed in, "Wow, you see... I told you then to break up with that lowlife, that good for nothing man, now see you, you are enjoying your life to the fullest."Amelia's mother also interjected, "Yes, that is true, Oliver was just a big blockage in your life, good thing we advised you then."Amelia chuckles, "Yeah, it is a good thing! But please let's just keep our mouths away from saying something bad aura, le
“Could you please just remain calm? Why do you always seem so sensitive?” Mr. Cory pleaded with Sophia, who stood unwavering, her grip firm on the gun pointed at him. Mr. Cory reached into his coat pocket, retrieving a small, weathered piece of paper, which he then handed to Oliver.“This letter was entrusted to me by your father before his passing. He implored me to safeguard it and to do everything in my power to protect you and the clan from any destruction,” Mr. Cory explained.Oliver silently read the content. he could recognized his own father hand writing.Sophia interjected sharply, “But your actions led to the opposite outcome. You took nearly half of the clan with you when you left.”"I understand why you would think that," Mr. Cory replied, his voice measured. "But what I did was necessary to ensure the clan's survival. We were losing back then, and we faced many threats. We couldn't support ourselves financially, so I had to make a difficult choice. I took a group of soldie
