Jaxon walked to the podium with all eyes on him. Their stares were filled with surprise and awe. How was it possible? No wedding was announced. And according to what they were told, Rachel was out of the country, doing her business. Looking around, she wasn’t anywhere close by. Rachel is the daughter of the Greysons. Georgia had to hide her state from them. They had to go far in telling that lie, or else the family would see it as an opportunity to take Diego out of the presidential position of his corporation. Jaxon faced them, smiling broadly. Although he was still moved by their aura, he decided to push it all aside and face them. They were all people like him, and he would surely meet them countless times before the deal was over. “Good day, everyone. Uncles, aunties, cousins. It is a pleasure to meet you all. I have heard so much about you from Rachel, and I must say, I am impressed.” He spoke into the mic. Felix drew his brows together, forming a hard line on his forehead a

Their eyes widened when they saw the stack of money on the floor, which fell from Felix’s bag. They were all shocked and concluded he was the thief. Felix remained unmoved and unbothered as murmurs spread behind him. “How dare you steal my money?” the owner roared, staring daggers at Felix, as if wanting to squeeze the life out of him. “Right now, you’re dead!” he threatened. “You shouldn’t assume that money belongs to you. Why don’t you calculate it first?” Felix suggested calmly, not fidgeting even in front of the man’s bulging muscles. “How dare you talk back when you should be kneeling on your knees!” the owner spat, his voice thundering through the hall. Felix rolled his tongue in his mouth and calmly placed both hands in his pockets. “I don’t accept you being disrespectful,” he said. From where he stood, Ryan was fuming with anger. It should’ve been in

Instead, he picked up his phone and sent a huge amount to his mom for the third time that week. He wanted to make sure they lacked nothing and lived a comfortable life since he had the chance to make things better for them. Immediately after he sent the money, Felix’s call came in. “It seems you can’t go a day without me, right?” he questioned. “Do not flatter yourself,” Felix replied. “Anyway, your first training session will be in the morning, but other days will be at night. After you get back from work, you should get prepared for it.” “All right, boss. I will do just that.” Felix hung up, and Jaxon went back to doing what he was busy with before. In no time, he got everything ready, but there wasn’t a sign of the moving company around. Were they stuck in traffic, or did something happen? The drive from the company to his former apartment wasn’t up to ten minutes, but they d

He wasn't tied properly, and it was easy to pull out his hand. He sighed and leaned back. As long as the men were outside, he wouldn't be able to go on with his plan. In no time, they would surely leave there, and that's when he would kill Jaxon. That was his plan. At midnight, the villa was silent as everyone had gone to sleep, except the man who was locked up in the basement. He finally removed the rope tied to his hand and walked to the door. Leaning closer, he tried to find out if the security guards were still outside. “I am tired, dude. Shouldn't we go to rest for a short time?” asked one of the security men. “But we can't leave this place. The boss would deal with us if the man escaped,” the other answered while shaking his head. “Come on now. We tied him down, and there is no way he would be able to escape. Let's just go rest for two hours and come back. He is still unco

After the meeting, Diego personally gave him a tour around the building and finally let him go for his judo class. While Jaxon was on his way to the elevator, he was blocked by two people — Aaron and Frieda. “If it isn’t my son-in-law from the Greyson family,” Aaron said. “What do you want?” Jaxon asked impatiently. “Nothing. Just wanted to say hi to you — and your wife,” Aaron replied, putting emphasis on the word wife. “Where is she?” Frieda asked. “None of your business. Look, I don’t really have time for chit-chatting, so excuse me, if you may,” Jaxon said. “You can’t walk out on us,” Frieda said. “Watch me,” he replied. Jaxon was about to walk away when Frieda raised her hand to slap him again. He caught her hand mid-air and said, “Mistakes don’t happen twice,” putting more force in his grip before finally letting her go. She quickly kept her h
