Hansen's attention gradually shifted away from Adrian to Doris and Jenny. Both women were more strikingly beautiful and poised than his so-called girlfriend, Alora, which only fueled his interest. He formally greeted them, his ingratiating smile barely masking his intentions. "Good evening, Doris a
Adrian’s sudden assertive attitude immediately froze the atmosphere. Everyone in the hall was incredulous that someone of Adrian's status and position would dare to speak like that, especially considering Hansen's well-known background in the underworld. A hushed silence fell over the room with mur
Unknown to anyone, Adrian had already decided to teach Alora and Hansen a lesson they wouldn't soon forget. Adrian could recognize the dangerous intentions Hansen harboured towards Doris, and he knew that he had to act decisively to eliminate Hansen's threats at the source, incapacitating him and
Alora watched with amusement with her eyes glinting maliciously as she observed Adrian, Doris, and Jenny. She stepped forward with her voice dripping with venom. "If Doris obediently sleeps with one of the men," Alora suggested provocatively, "no one here will be in danger." At this moment, Hanse
Hansen froze in the doorway with his face pale with shock as he noticed the chaotic scene inside the hall. The sight of the thugs sprawled on the floor, incapacitated by the men in grey, left him momentarily speechless. Alora stood beside him, equally dazed, unable to comprehend how quickly their
As the evening wore on, the tension from earlier gradually dissipated, and the classmates' gathering resumed its jovial atmosphere. Conversations flowed freely, punctuated by bursts of laughter, as everyone enjoyed the sumptuous food and drinks provided by Phil. The earlier scare now seemed like a
After the class reunion had come to an end, Adrian and Doris offered to escort Jenny back to her hotel. The city lights of Jolley City flickered in the night, casting a warm glow on the streets as they walked. The evening air was cool, and there was a sense of calm after the tumultuous events of the
Doris turned and walked out of the room, leaving her family to their derisive laughter. As it drew closer to Doris and Adrian's wedding, the Greene household buzzed not with the excitement of an upcoming nuptial celebration but with preparations for a different event entirely. The focus was on G
Adrian looked at him and nodded. "Yes, it is." Owen’s jaw dropped. He could hardly believe it! Adrian—the man he and the Greene family had belittled for years—owned this sprawling mansion. He felt his legs weaken, and he almost staggered back in disbelief. *Since when had Adrian become so wealth
Upon hearing Neil's words, the atmosphere thickened with shock. The Greene family members exchanged glances with their faces a mixture of disbelief and anger. They had never imagined that the lavish estate and properties they had been boasting about for years belonged to Adrian’s family! It was a r
The next day, the air was thick with shock and disbelief in Jolley City. News had erupted like a wildfire, and Frank's name was plastered all over the headlines. “Frank Greene Kills His Mother, Kathryn Greene, and Brother!” screamed the news anchor as the camera panned to footage of a chaotic scen
Adrian smiled warmly. “It means that you’re not only my wife but my partner. And if you’re ready, I’d love to have you by my side as we navigate this world together.” Doris looked at him, a renewed sense of pride and admiration filling her eyes. Just as they shared that moment, they heard a faint
Adrian took a deep breath, watching Doris’s questioning expression. She had been his wife through everything, and she deserved to know the truth. It was time. “Doris, I've waited until now to tell you who I really am because... well, I thought it wasn’t the right time. But you’ve proven, time and a
The following day marked Doris's birthday, and like previous years, she hadn’t planned any big celebration. During her mother's birthday, Adrian had taken them to a nice restaurant, and gifted Milda an expensive wristwatch, which he said a rich friend had given him. For Doris's birthday celebrat
The following day, Jolley City was hit by shocking news: A CEO had allegedly raped one of his employees in his office. And the name Adrian Moore went viral. The reports claimed that Adrian had repeatedly attempted to seduce Jenny, but after she consistently refused, he resorted to force. Jenny a
Adrian raised an eyebrow and smirked, clearly amused. "Do you actually think you can threaten me?" Jenny didn’t flinch. Her gaze was steady as she replied, “This isn’t a threat, Adrian. It’s reality.” Adrian chuckled, folding his arms as he leaned back. He wondered how far she thought she could ta
After rescuing Doris and Milda, Adrian led them to a new mansion in Jolley City. This wasn’t just any mansion—it was grander than anything they could have imagined. The Greene family's men had burned down Adrian’s previous home, but that, in fact, was the smallest mansion he owned. The loss ba
