last update publish date: 2026-08-16 18:35:02

Roseline's POV…

I watched the ambulance drive off into the darkness. The flickering lights going on and off behind it.

I closed my eyes slowly as the tear drop rolled down my cheek. Florian had a panic attack and fainted. Maybe it was due to past childhood trauma, he didn't like fire, he was afraid of it.

I noticed the way his eyes always flickered whenever he's close to the gas, the way beads of sweat rest around his head, and the way his hands shake. Despite being a chef, he still can't hide

  • Tempted by my Godlike boss   CHAPTER 79: They are torturing him.

    FLORIAN'S POVThe gunshot sounded again, this time closer, and soon it sounded like the record store was surrounded.Adrian stared at me, his eyes burning with rage."Where is Marcus?" I asked."I don't have him," he said, his voice almost a whisper, but I could still hear it clearly."You're going to regret this," he said before leaving, slipping quickly through a hidden door behind the shelves before I could stop him.His armed men stayed to fight, and soon the men Gabriel called flooded the place, gunfire erupting all around me. I ducked behind the counter quickly, my heart pounding wildly as bullets shattered glass display cases nearby, records and vinyl covers scattering across the floor in the chaos."Florian, get down!" one of Gabriel's men shouted, pulling me further behind cover as the fight intensified.I watched as trained soldiers exchanged fire with Adrian's men, the sound deafening in the small space, smoke and dust filling the air. It felt like it lasted forever, though

  • Tempted by my Godlike boss   CHAPTER 78: Meeting his twin.

    FLORIAN'S POVThe plan was very simple. I would head to the exact location to meet the person that called me, while Gabriel, Leo, and a few sergeants would follow the map and investigate, to find out what my father hid there.The plan was a very simple and not-so-simple plan.We waited for a while before heading to the location. Gabriel, Leo and the others took different cars and went their separate ways.I just hoped in my heart that everything would go according to plan.The drive to the place was calm. I sat in the backseat with two of my men, Gabriel's men. He insisted on calling in a few old friends from the military, skilled men.We arrived at the building in no time. I got down from the car, leaving the men still inside surveying the area before they came out. Once I was away from the car, they got out and disappeared somewhere into the shadows.I looked around. It looked like a record store, the name boldly written in front of the shop.Ric and Blues.The street was quiet, alm

  • Tempted by my Godlike boss   CHAPTER 77: Tracking him down

    ROSELINE'S POV"Florian, you can't go," I said immediately, standing up quickly, panic gripping my chest. "This is clearly a trap.""She's right," Gabriel said, stepping closer. "Whoever's behind this wants you alone, no protection, no backup. That's exactly how they'll get to you.""I don't have a choice," Florian said, his voice tight with desperation. "They have Marcus. If I don't go, they'll kill him.""And if you do go, they might kill you both," I argued, my hands trembling as fear moved through my body. "Florian, please, think about this. We need a plan, not just walking blindly into whatever they've set up."He ran his hands through his hair, clearly torn between the urgency to save his uncle and the reality of the danger waiting for him. "What am I supposed to do then? Just sit here while they hurt him?""We call the police, quietly, without alerting whoever's watching," Gabriel said. "We figure out exactly where this location is first, gather information before rushing in

    FLORIAN'S POVThe scream still echoed in my ears as I burst back into the room, Gabriel right behind me.The bed was empty. The place where Marcus was laying down was empty, the bed sheet rumpled like it had been scattered with force."Marcus!" I shouted, spinning around, my eyes scanning every corner of the small room, but he was nowhere to be found. The monitors beside the bed had been knocked over, wires ripped loose, the chair near the window overturned just like before."Let me check heck the bathroom," Gabriel said quickly, already moving toward it himself."It's empty," he said a second later, stepping back out, his face tight with worry."Marcus!" I called again, running out into the hallway, my heart pounding wildly in my chest. A few nurses looked up, startled by the commotion"Sir, is everything okay?" one of them asked, hurrying toward us."My uncle, Marcus, he was just in this room," I said urgently. "He's missing. We heard him scream a few minutes ago and now he's gone.

  • Tempted by my Godlike boss   CHAPTER 75: Marcus's Scream

    FLORIAN'S POV"Your father is a twin," he said.I paused at the spot, my body not responding immediately, my head still spinning at the information Marcus just revealed.Gabriel nodded for him to go on.He continued. "Your grandfather, my father, had fortunes. He owned mansions and houses around the world. He left it all for his children. So me and my brother had a fortune, but he left the greater part for your father, and an island he owned, he left it all for your father because he was older and obviously my father loved him more. His twin brother refused to accept that. He said our father's will was wrong. After our father died, the will was hidden from us, so we had to search for it and find it."Marcus paused for a while to catch his breath."His twin became his rival and enemy. They fought for years until it started becoming really intense. He is responsible for the death of your parents. My brother killed his twin.""Wait," I said, my mind struggling to keep up. "You're saying

  • Tempted by my Godlike boss   CHAPTER 74: The truth about to be revealed.

    FLORIAN'S POV"My stepfather's business partner?" I asked him."Yeah, back then there was this man who was his business partner. They still work together, I think, but not exactly as business partners anymore," Fredrik said, choosing his words carefully."What's his name?" I asked."Alistair Grimes," he said. "He handled a lot of your stepfather's financial dealings back then, investments, mergers, that sort of thing. If anyone would know about disputes involving your family's fortune, it would be him.""Do you know where I can find him?" I pressed."He runs a private investment firm downtown now," Fredrik said. "Should be easy enough to find if you look him up.""Thank you," I said, standing up quickly, my mind already racing ahead to how soon I could get there. I really needed to find out who exactly was this man threatening my family."Florian," Fredrik said, stopping me before I could leave. "Be careful. If Alistair really is connected to all of this, he's not someone to take ligh
