Matthew's POVInside that dark room, the pressure was palpable. I stood there, staring at someone sitting in his work chair with an annoying expression.I frowned, looking at him, who still seemed unfazed by my annoyed expression. "You shouldn't be doing things like that, talking to that woman when I'm not with you," I said.The man who was much older than me spoke up. "What's wrong? Nothing happened, right?" He raised an eyebrow without a drop of guilt.I held my breath, trying to remain calm even though I desperately wanted to put most of my common sense into his mind, which was overflowing with confidence and optimism, without caring about the other repercussions that could come from his actions.The problem was that not only she but also me and our family, who weren't even involved in this, would be carried away."That's just going to make him suspicious. Father also knows that a marriage between us will also happen soon." I took a deep breath. "Please don't do anything like that

Chris' POVI heard the sound of someone opening the door and put down the cell phone I had been looking at to waste time looking at the person who had just arrived. "You finally came."The man was Ezrah. He was wearing sunglasses, but then took them off and placed them on the table and sat down opposite me. We were in a private room somewhere in the city. Only a select few people knew about this place, including me and the man who was looking at me in surprise."You don't usually address me directly, like this, sir." He said with a slightly wrinkled forehead suspiciously. "Usually you prefer to give orders from Evan or your other cell phone."I nodded. "There's something I need in person, to confirm something I've been investigating lately."This man in front of me was an informant I had been working with for three years. Not too long, but also not a short time for a paid informant like him. I recognized Ezrah's great ability at a younger age than me.Comparatively, he was close in ag

Nicole's POVI played a round of golf with Richard, smiling as I watched his shot send the small, heavy ball soaring into the hole with precision. "Good shot, Richard.""Yes, mom, but I still need to learn more...." He reasoned.I patted him lightly on the shoulder as Key helped him pick up the ball and put it into the holder. "Still, you can already golf pretty well without practising too hard."My son smiled, and we relaxed for a while, drinking the drinks that had just been prepared as we were seated by the few waiters helping Key's work in serving us.Right now, we were still around the house, more precisely in the backyard that had been deliberately made as an impromptu golf course. The course was only created yesterday, and this morning, it was completely finished, so my son and I could use it immediately. Golf equipment is also easy to find, with access to the city centre, which is quite close to our house.I was happy to see my son and spend time with him after a long time. I

Nicole's POVI met with my father at the office, reporting on the deal I had managed to secure a few days ago."I met with Mr. Hudson, Father. The cooperation between our companies is going well. He will meet with you during these two days for further talks."The man, much older than me, looked at me in surprise. "Why should Mr. Hudson meet with me? That is your business, Nicole." I returned his gaze with surprise, but he continued."You're the one who got the deal with his company, so you'll be in charge until the end, not me." He smiled slightly. "You have to remember that, Nicole."I nodded. "Yes, Father."Actually, I was used to doing my work until the end. Still, considering that part of my workload was reduced and transferred to my father, I thought that this deal would also be completed by a man who was more experienced than me. But it wasn't.I felt relieved. Before letting it go, I wanted to see this deal through to the end. There were a few collaborations that I was really i

Nicole's POVOne week had passed. Right now, I was staring at the woman in front of me, tied to a chair with several of my bodyguards standing guard around us. I had just arrested her along with some suspicious people because one of my confidants informed me of her unusual actions.I immediately took action so that it would be noticed. I could already guess her intentions, and the end result wouldn't be good for me or the people I was involved with.The tied-up woman didn't say anything, and neither did I, but I finally opened the conversation by giving her a cold stare. "I had expected that you might do something like this, but you didn't waste any time at all, Miss Julia Dorris.""As a businesswoman, time is money, Miss Nicole. You must know that." Julia smiled, showing absolutely no agitation that I had caught her. "But why are you bothering to catch me like this? What does it have to do with you if I do something? You're the one who said that you don't want to get involved in this
