Darting his eyes off Belinda, Zane looked at Sabastian and said, “Start talking, or else she will be free to strike that knife wherever she pleases.” As fear clouded his eyes, Sabastian looked over at Belinda to see a malicious smile plastered across her lips, and he closed his eyes tight, blurting out, “It was Mr. Allen! He was the one who told me to go down to the production floor and get that device destroyed. He promised me ten thousand to destroy it and then after I got the job done, I should tell him that the deal was done. Then he instructed me to lead you here by telling the guard on duty last night about my exact location tonight...”‘It’s always the silent ones that are the deadliest hypocrites,’ Zane thought, knowing Allen to be the administrative Secretary of Golden Key Co. and an easygoing guy, who rarely says much until needed. “He approached me a few days ago... As he was leaving the office, he overheard me asking for money from one of the guys, and when they denied me

The atmosphere at Golden Key Co. had a slightly tense energy in the atmosphere when Zane walked into the company the next morning with Yoko by his side.“Good morning, Boss.” Every employee on the first floor greeted them after waking from their seat in unison.Responding with a faint smile, Zane nodded at them before facing his front, walking for the elevator as Yoko stayed on his heel.A few minutes later, Zane reached his office floor and the moment Emily saw him, she took a booklet from her desk and rushed from behind it, approaching the two.When she reached Zane, she stopped, gazing at him hesitantly, and then greeted, “Good morning?”“What’s wrong?” Zane asked, studying her face.“Nothing is wrong. It's the opposite... People have been calling like crazy. Mr. Kim called to know if you have a space in your schedule to make time to go golfing with him... Mr. Josh said that he wants to invite you to a dinner party that he’s hosting on Friday… Mrs. Gant said something about a char

Watching his brother pace back and forth behind his desk, Jason held in his words, and then he sighed, saying, “We lost three more of our clients, and because of that stupid business deal Damion made in the past, the company can not financially sustain itself with its current losses and if this continues we're going to have to take a major new loan to keep up with payroll expenses.”Pausing, Jason watched as his brother turned towards him slowly, his eyes darkening with an expression so full of anger, and he saw how his brother's fists clenched so hard that his knuckles turned white as they came together at the tips, as he glared back at him.“But adding more debts to a wounded business that is under attack and being suppressed will only come to bite us in the ass, later on, sooner than we think... If we don't target this from the source of the problem, we will end up selling NewEra in the long run, at this rate of things.” Jason added calmly, seeing his brother's eyes flare with some

As the bed moved under him, Zane's eyelids slowly raised, staring blurrily at Emma bareback, and as she was about to reach for her robe, he grabbed hold of her waist baring his face into her skin and inhaled deeply before letting out a satisfied sigh and nuzzling further into her soft flesh. As the smell of jasmine filled his nostrils and the sound of birds chirping outside the room, he smiled softly to himself and nestled deeper into her body, and the warmth from their bodies pressed together began to spread through him, leaving him drowsy. “Good morning,” Zane said, his voice deep, yet like a whisper, rumbling with happiness. “You’re up early.”Turning around in his arms, Emma smiled widely and brushed his hair back before leaning forward and kissing his lips.“After what you did last night, sleep is the least I could do after that.” She replied, her eyes shining warmly as she teased his lips with a kiss, nibbling on them lightly before pulling away and looking down at him. She bi

As Zane sat in the backseat of the police car with Larry, handcuffs on both their wrist, the officer in the front passenger seat looked back at them through the barbwire.Seeing the calm expression on Zane’s face made him smirk, mumbling, “It says when you bite more than you can chew, you get shit stuck in your throat that choke the hell out of you.” Even though Zane knew those words were aimed at him, his face remained emotionless, ignoring the officer's gaze although the dude was staring directly at him.“This guy... What a cocky piece of a prick... You get a taste of the upper-class piss, and now, you suddenly think that you are invisible. Well, I can assure you that prison is very humbling.” He chuckled darkly, a low growl escaping his throat. “It doesn't matter how big your connections are. Once they put you behind that metal bar, you will feel completely powerless.”After not getting a reaction from Zane’s soporific stillness, he scoffed and faced his front, saying, "Pray to yo
