Chapter 39

Vere and Olivia left the mansion early the following day and temporarily left Grandale to travel to Zermatt. Olivia observed Vere appeared to be contemplating something as they were in the air.

"You appear unhappy to be going to Zermatt, Mr. Wayne," Olivia inquired.

Vere said, "I'm actually happy, but."

"Then what? Is the accident involved?" Olivia inquired.

Vere responded, "No, actually there's another memory that it's hard to forget."

"Oh, please don't be upset; please move on, Mr. Wayne," Olivia added.

"Indeed," he said, "I've moved on."

With a smile on her lips, Olivia continued, "Really, you have to... Mr. Wayne, remember you are in a new you, so please let's start all over again."

Okay, okay, don't get worried, and I am completely new now," Vere said.

After nine hours of flying, the plane eventually arrived at Zermatt airport. After disembarking the plane, they took a car ride and headed to Olivia's mansion. As they arrived at the location, Vere was shocked when they got there because that's where he lived before, and Olivia's mansion was actually Vere's mansion.

"How does this mansion look, Mr. Wayne?" Olivia questioned him. "How did this happen?" Vere answered Olivia with a question. "What do you mean, Mr. Wayne?" Olivia replied with confusion. "Actually, I bought this mansion one month ago," Olivia's response. "Mr. James, the right hand and trusted assistant of Mr. Vere Mendez, sold it to me as Mr. Vere is ordered to sell his properties as he is in prison and can't manage them anymore," Olivia added.

"How did this all happen?" Vere was confused and unable to explain the incident because even his mansion had been sold by James, and he didn't know about it. "Actually, I bought this mansion one month ago from Mr. James, the trustee and personal assistant of Mr. Vere Mendez," Olivia answered. "And remember, I'm the daughter of a multimillionaire, so I can buy anything I like and I'm interested in," Olivia explained to Vere while smiling at him. "Don't you like it, Mr. Wayne?" "I bought it for you," Olivia said to Vere.

"No way," Vere answered. Olivia said, "Yes, it's for you; actually, that's why Mr. Vere sold this mansion because he is in jail and can no longer take care of his properties." At the same time, while he heard Olivia narrating a story about his mansion and the story about him, Vere didn't act like he was annoyed from hearing Olivia's story about him.

Because he didn't want to reveal and react at that time that his blood was boiling at what he heard, but he could do nothing but agree with Olivia so that he could continue with his plans that were interrupted due to his accident.

At that moment, even though Vere was angry, he still needed to accept the challenges that life had presented to him. And at that moment, he realized that he needed to be strong so that he could continue his quest for redemption and revenge, especially now that he had learned that James was slowly selling his properties without his knowledge.

Mr. Wayne handed an envelope containing documents about the mansion to Olivia, officially giving the house as a gift. "Thank you so much, Olivia," Vere said.

"Oh, don't thank me, Mr. Wayne," Olivia replied. "We should thank God for the miracle that saved you and gave you another chance and opportunity to be with me," she added. Vere looked at her as he accepted the envelope Olivia gave him, and he expressed his gratitude. "It's too much, Olivia, but anyways, thank you. And I assure you that I will take care of your businesses," Vere said.

"Don't thank me," Olivia said. "So when are you going to meet Mr. James?" Olivia asked Vere.

"I don't know yet. I want to prepare more and be ready," Vere replied.

"Hmm, really? You need more preparation for our proposal," Olivia chuckled. "Anyways, Mr. Wayne, a day after tomorrow, I'm flying back to the US," Olivia said. "I have important things to settle," Olivia added.

"Okay, Olivia," Vere replied. "But be sure that when I come back, our proposal is already successful," Olivia said to Vere.

As the days passed, Vere worked diligently to prepare for the important meeting with James. Olivia had been his unwavering support, providing guidance and encouragement. They became closer to each other had deepened, and the connection between them was stronger than ever.

The day of the meeting finally arrived. Vere, dressed in his finest suit, took a deep breath and headed to the designated location to meet James. He was nervous but determined to make a good impression even though he had his anger. As he entered the meeting room, he found James waiting.

"Mr. Wayne, I've heard great things about your business acumen. Let's get down to business,"  James said with a welcoming smile. The meeting went remarkably well, and Vere's preparation paid off. He presented his proposals confidently, and  James was impressed by his ideas.

Back in the US, Olivia was busy settling her affairs, but her thoughts were with Vere. She had faith in his abilities and was eagerly waiting for his call to share the good news. Time seemed to pass slowly as she anxiously waited for updates.

Meanwhile, Vere and James continued their discussions, refining the details of their partnership. As they worked together, Vere's business acumen and determination shone through, earning the trust and respect of  James. The proposal was on the brink of success. And  Vere needs to pretend for now about his identity to know more about James acitivity.

Finally, the day of Olivia's return to Zermatt arrived. She couldn't contain her excitement, eager to reunite with Vere and hear about the progress. The moment she landed, she rushed to the mansion, where Vere had been staying.

Vere welcomed Olivia with a warm embrace, and she eagerly asked, "How did it go, Mr. Wayne?"

With a smile, Vere shared the good news. "Our proposal was a success, Olivia. Mr. James agreed to the partnership, and everything is in place."

Tears of joy welled up in Olivia's eyes as she hugged Vere tightly. "I knew you could do it, Mr. Wayne. You've worked so hard for this."

Their dreams were becoming a reality for Olivia it was a success but for Vere it is part of his progress to know well about what James is doing without his consent. And to gather more proofs. Olivia's unwavering support and Vere's determination had paid off, and they were ready to embark on this new journey together.

As they stood in the grand mansion, hand in hand, they knew that their shared dreams would lead them to a future filled with happiness and success. The mansion, once a gift from Olivia, had become the symbol of determination, and the beginning of a new chapter in his life.
