As Amelia slammed her car door shut, her face contorted with fury. With her phone pressed to her ear, she stepped out onto the pavement, her voice cutting through the air like a sharp blade. "Where the hell is Fred!"She fast-paced to the company; she has been calling Fred since yesterday, and he was not picking up. Since Fred had collected the investment money from his family, he had not been seen.As Amelia stepped into the office, her secretary rushed towards her, a look of concern on her face. "Ma'am, something big has occurred," she said gently, "the investors are withdrawing."Perplexed, Amelia inquired, "What's going on?" With a sympathetic tone, the secretary explained, "The company has been put up for a public sales auction."Amelia frowned; she was perplexed and surprised. "What! How could that happen? It is impossible; I am the owner of my company. How could it be put up for sale behind me?"The secretary nodded slowly, "I don't know either. The investors are angry about th
As Amelia stormed into the Jay Group company, hyperventilating and breathing heavily, she marched straight to the receptionist's desk, her jaw clenched in anger."Where's Fred?" she demanded, her voice sharp and commanding.Taken aback by Amelia's intensity, the receptionist stammered, "I-I'm sorry, can I help you with something?""I said, where the hell is Fred!" she shouted."Ma'am, you can't just walk in here and act this way. Please, be calm," the receptionist calmly said.Amelia nodded, trying to contain her anger. "Okay, okay, where is he?"The receptionist checked her records, then looked up at her and said, "No, he isn't here."Amelia's frustration boiled over, and she slammed her fist on the desk. "Damn it! This can't be. I need to speak to him immediately!""Ma'am, he is not here at the moment. Who are you, and how are you related to Mr. Fred so I could deliver your message to him?"Amelia's anger burst forth. "I am not here for that! I want him now, or Mr. Jay himself. He c
Oliver watched Amelia leave, wondering what happened. He looked back at Jackson, who nodded jokingly."That witch learned her lesson," he stated, smiling, feeling very satisfied.Oliver curiously asked him, "What's wrong? What happened to her?""Why should I answer you? Why don't you ask her? Isn't she your ex-wife?" Jackson snapped at him."Yeah, I should ask her, just as I should ask your father about your whereabouts last night and what you were doing at the seaport," Oliver calmly answered him.Jackson pipped out his eyes in surprise and walked closer to Oliver. Lowering his voice, he sneered, "What the hell are you saying?""You clearly know what I'm saying. I'm curious about how your father will react if he knows you were into drugs," Oliver exhaled slowly.Jackson gritted his teeth, feeling like swallowing him. "How did you even know? Are you trailing me? Who the hell are you?"Oliver smirked, "It's just a mere coincidence. Just tell me what I ask you.""Your ex-wife has been d
Amelia looked at the secretary and asked, "What happened?""Ma'am, Mr. Fred is outside! You have to see it!" the secretary excitedly said.Amelia was surprised to hear this; she wiped her tears and followed her secretary to the front of the building. Her mother and aunt also stepped out.As they stepped outside, she saw Oliver standing there with Fred, who had bruises covering his face.Oliver's gaze was steely as he held Fred firmly, as Fred tried to free himself."Leave me! You thug!" Fred yelled.It took some time before Amelia grasped what was going on. How could Oliver catch Fred?"What's going on here?" she asked, her voice trembling with emotion.Oliver turned to her and gently said, "Here is Fred. He is on his way to run out of the country."Fred tried to squirm out of Oliver's grasp, and he immediately kneeled in front of Amelia."Please, I will give you all that I took. I will give you back your company. Please don't let that thing kill me. He is a thug, a king of cartels!"
Amelia was able to revive her company and used the money sent to her for maintenance, but her company was affected a lot, and many of their investors have left. She hit the rock bottom and was finding a way to climb back up. But there was something she needed to take care of first.She arrived at the restaurant dressed in a decent top and skirt, her hair packed in a ponytail, looking simple. She walked inside the restaurant.There was Oliver waiting for her, he waved so she could see him. Amelia approached him and then sat in front of him.The waitress came to them and asked for their order."chicken Alfredo pasta" they said at the same time, referring to a menu they usually ordered when they were married."Okay," the waitress bowed and left.Amelia folded her arms and started, "I should just begin the reason I called you.""Why don't you let us eat what we ordered?" Oliver stated."I don't have time for that, Oliver. You can eat when it arrives," she arrogantly stated.Oliver nodded,
The banquet hall was aglow with candlelight, filling the atmosphere with a warm, elegant ambiance. The hall was all fancy, with lots of shiny lights making everything look posh. Fancy tables had pretty flowers on them, and servers walked around with trays of yummy snacks and bubbly drinks. People chatted excitedly.Outside the banquet, an exotic sport car arrived. The crowd gasped as the eye-catching car arrived, and Amelia stepped out in a dazzling gown, with a daring neckline revealing the perfect hint of cleavage, while the slit up the side of her thigh.Everyone couldn't help but grasp at the beautiful hot lady that just arrived. Just then, on the other side of the car, Dylan stepped out.He had a cool vibe, wearing clothes that seemed exotic, maybe from another country. Together, they made quite the pair, turning heads as they entered the room."Wow, look at them, very unique," one of the people said."They must be super rich," another added.Meanwhile, at the building in front of
"You should be the one that should talk to your girlfriend; she stepped on me first, and all I did was touch her to call her attention. She slapped me instead."Dylan immediately changed the event; that was how horrible he was. The hidden truth was that Dylan was rich—yeah, so rich. He got his money from money laundering, drugs, and scams. He was even arrested for sexual assault; he was a demon acting like an angel.He lied that he was the one who sent that money to Amelia because the police the other day planned it with him. After the policeman heard that someone paid off her debt and even sent her money without revealing himself, he set up a plan with Dylan to scam her.Oliver couldn't hold it; he just scoffed, "What the hell did I just hear? I saw when you grabbed her butt, so stop lying. Kindly apologize now, or I will have you arrested.""Based on what evidence? Stop lying on me; I didn't do that," he denied it.Oliver twisted his hand so much that it hurts; he couldn't help but
Oliver's hands trembled as he read the note. How could Elena be connected to the Quill clan? What was the essence of this letter?Suddenly, Elena appeared at the top of the stairs, holding her bag. She noticed Oliver's expression and furrowed her brow. "Is everything alright?"Oliver immediately acted normal and showed her the paper. "I saw this on the sofa, just curious about what QUILL means."Elena climbed down from the stairs. "Oh, that. I found it in one of my father's photos. It was hidden inside it. I wonder what that is. I even want to ask Mother about it.""Oh, okay... ready to go?" Oliver inquired, his mind already shifting to the marriage as a way to uncover more about the letter.Elena smiled. "Yeah, let's go." They both left the house and headed to the courthouse to obtain a marriage license and any other necessary documents.On their way back to Elena's mother's house, Elena brought up the topic of their wedding date. "What about our wedding date? We should celebrate thi
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. "I want to be with you all day," she whispers, a sentiment I adore. "Alright, but let me take you on a date as well, something we've never done before," I suggest, and she readily agrees. We decide to close the business for the day and make plans to meet at a unique taste restaurant. I'm the first to arrive, dressed in attire suitable for the occasion. As the door chimes open, she walks in, looking more beautiful than ever with her long dark hair and delightful dimples that appear when she laughs. It amazes me how lucky I am to have her in my life. "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. As Amelia was about to enter the elevators, Elena grabbed her by her hair and pulled her back."Where the hell do you think you are going after stepping on me? Am I a stick?" 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
As the door swings open, Aiden and Max step into the room. The weariness etched on Aiden's face is evident, a consequence of a long and difficult day in lockup. Upon catching sight of Aiden, Mrs. Ray is taken aback and immediately filled with sympathy for him. 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." As the room settles into an air of tension, Mr. Ray, seated with a cup of tea in hand, suddenly lifts his head and delivers a stern remark, his tone laced with authority and dissatisfaction. "You better be careful next time before you waste my hard-earned money on something unreasonable," he warns Aiden, who respectfully bows his head and replies with a simple, "Okay, sir." It's evident that Aiden has somehow managed to misuse or squander Mr. Ray's funds, an act tha

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. ''Someone has been playing with me, and I will bring out his gut whenever I see him/her.'' ''But one of us seems to know the mafia gang; he had come across them before and knows one of them. He said it is down by Sky Lord,'' he added, capturing his attention. ''He knows them?... Does he know their hideout?'' he asked eagerly. He nodded affirmatively. ''That's great!
