Adrian smiled, remaining calm and composed. He felt no need to reveal his true identity or prove anything to Katie's parents. Paul Clarendon had also left with the goldsmith since he revealed the value of the necklace, so no one present knew how rich and influential Adrian was. Even if Paul was
The office buzzed with excitement and activity as preparations began for the president’s visit. Jenny’s colleagues shared what little they knew about him. “I’ve heard he’s a genius, always ten steps ahead in the business world,” said Mark, a senior analyst. “And apparently, he’s never been photogra
The last person she had expected to see in such a prestigious company was Adrian! Her previous experiences with him had left her with nothing but disdain. "What are you doing here?" Jenny asked, with her voice dripping with contempt as she approached him. "A criminal like you in a place like Bro
Adrian barely had time to react before one of them struck him with a metal rod from behind. He crumpled to the floor, the world spinning as he tried to regain his senses. Doris screamed, but another man quickly gagged her with a cloth and tied her to the bed. Her wide eyes, filled with terror as
As the men stormed into Doris’s ward, they moved with a precision that spoke of training and discipline. Adrian, despite being in the midst of the fight, had managed to signal them with a discreet click on his phone. These men were his loyal comrades. The men swiftly overpowered the thugs, draggi
"Boss?" The voice responded. "Get over here, now," York growled. Within minutes, a burly man named Vince arrived at York's house. Vince was one of York's most trusted operatives, known for his ruthlessness and efficiency. York didn't waste any time. "I need you to find everything you can about on
The spacious living room of the Greene mansion buzzed with chatter and laughter as the Greene family members gathered for a special meeting, except for Doris's family. Gary and Linda sat at the centre of attention, surrounded by Linda's extended family. Grandma Kathryn presided over the gatherin
Mr. Kevin chuckled. "I work here as one of the Assistant Managers. What about you? What are you doing here?" Gary's eyes widened with excitement. "I'm here for an interview for the HR position." Mr. Kevin's interest was piqued. He had heard from Gary's father where Gary worked and the high positio
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
