“You are back,” Marcus whispered as soon as he set his eyes on the lady who walked in, giving her an obvious stare.

Queen turned to glance at the lady, a few seconds before she took out her phone and forwarded the assignment to Marcus.

“Her name is Gwen Cipher, Young Master. She is twenty-four years old, and not a student of your college.”

“I knew it.” Marcus nodded, and then he took a deep breath, taking his phone out of his pocket.

After glancing through the details that Queen had sent to him, he took a deep breath, moving his eyes back to her.

“It says here that she is an orphan.”

“Yes, Master Marcus.” Queen nodded, but Marcus didn’t seem like he was paying attention to her, focused on looking at Gwen.

He felt so much pity for her, especially after he had discovered that she spent some time in an orphanage just like him.

“It says nothing here of the things she does…” Marcus returned his gaze to the phone just to be sure he was right.

    CHAPTER NINETY-NINE Queen was already waiting to land more slaps on Sam’s face, shaking with both annoyance and nervousness. “That’s enough…” Marcus’s tone made her stop, and instantly, she shifted backward, looking at him as he approached. Sam was still shaking like a leaf, whimpering and grunting to the pain that had engulfed him. His eyes moved from one of the guards to the other and unable to deal with their furious glare, he turned to Marcus, hoping that it was going to be easier for him to deal with looking at him.“I am so sorry, Mr. Trevor…” He paused for a few seconds, attempting to get a grip on himself. “I am so sorry, Mr. Trevor. I didn’t know that you were the same person we were all waiting for! I swear!” He went down, but the moment he tried to grab Marcus by the legs, the two guards closest to him pushed him before he could reach Marcus’s feet.Sam grunted, panting profusely while he was still attempting to get a grip on himself. At that moment, even his daughter

    “How dare you insult my father?!” She yelled at Marcus, but he didn’t look like he was ready to take back his words.“You are as foolish as he is, Tamara,” Marcus added, causing her to growl. “Did…” Tamara turned to her father, but it seemed as though she couldn’t find her words, her voice breaking down before she could continue.“Did you hear that, Daddy? He just called me a fool! He just insulted you and me!”Sam was already glaring at Marcus, ready to deal with him.“I am going to teach you a lesson that you are not going to forget in a hurry!” He swore, turning to the guards who were running out of patience to do exactly what they had been called for.“Grab him at once!” He pointed, fuming in a rage.“Take him to the back and beat him up until he collapses!”“No! wait!” Wendy stepped in at once, spreading her arms as she looked at her ex-husband, her breath unstable just as her gaze.“You are making a very terrible mistake, Sam! Don’t let your ego ruin things for you! Don’t let t

    CHAPTER NINETY-SEVEN Sam’s eyes widened as soon as he saw the ticket, and even Tamara drew closer to take a look. “There must be a mistake, Daddy,” Tamara whispered when her father turned to her for explanations. “What do you mean, Tamara?” Sam’s voice was laced with annoyance, his angry eyes turning from the ticket, back to his daughter, and then to the ticket. “This is the exact ticket that I gave you to give to Miss Queen…” He looked at the ticket carefully again, and then he cleared his throat, anger churning inside his stomach.“How the hell did it get into the hands of…” He turned to Marcus, his eyes burning with disdain. “This… This…” He pointed at him, not knowing what exactly to call him. Then he growled, returning his gaze to his daughter. “I need you to answer me, Tammy. Tell me the truth…”“Yes, Daddy…” Tamara nodded, and then she took a deep breath, struggling with the feelings that gripped her. Sam looked at the ticket once again, and then he shifted his gaze to Ma

    “But this just proves how irresponsible and cunny you are, and I don’t see myself investing with and trusting my money with someone like you…” Sam thought he heard wrong at first, but the words from the young man were still resounding inside his mind, causing him to take a deep breath. He cleared his throat after a few seconds, and then he looked at Wendy, holding onto his wry smile.“You didn’t tell me that your silly boyfriend here is a clown…”He scoffed, holding onto his wry smile. “Where the hell did you meet him? A circus?” He burst out laughing, and his daughter joined him at once.They laughed so hard that they soon got the attention of some of the guests in the space who decided to watch the available show since the intended show was not available. “You are so funny, boy!” Sam pointed at Marcus, looking him in the face.“Come here to tell me that you are not going to invest in my company. I am sure Wendy has been blabbing to you about my plans to get Cent Corporation to bu

    “Don’t let your father deceive you, Tammy…” Wendy shifted her focus to her child, staring at her with tears in her eyes. “I loved you and put you first, and you know it. All I ever wanted was to provide for you, to give you the life that your father here couldn’t. I just couldn’t sit and watch you suffer, so I decided to go all out just because I love you!” She was still struggling not to drop her tears, staring at her daughter without blinking.But her expression fell the moment Tamar scoffed, watering down all her efforts. “What a funny way of showing it, Wendy…” Tamara snorted, her words piercing into her mother sharper than a sword. “You didn’t care about me, Wendy…” Tamara continued with a lower but audible tone, and as her father nodded in satisfaction, she was still looking for more hurtful words to say.“You just wanted to rebuild what was left of your father’s stupid and old garage. You just wanted to take care of that junkyard!”“Don’t say that!” Wendy shook her head in t

    Wendy turned to look at the young lady again, her eyes still wide while her lips refused to shut. “You…” She stuttered, pointing at the man and staring him in the eyes.She took a deep breath, and then she cleared her throat.“How…” She still couldn’t complete her words, her eyes filled with shock. “How was I able to afford to host this kind of event?” Sam asked, and then he scoffed, looking her in the eyes. “Well…” He puffed his shoulders, adjusted his jacket, and sighed heavily. “I decided to make use of the money from your father’s business. The buyers paid quite a huge amount, and I decided not to let the money go to waste.”Wendy’s eyes widened, sparking with both anger and shock. She tried to suppress her tears, but she couldn’t. Turning to look at the young lady standing beside her ex-husband, she took a deep breath, and then she let it out slowly, hoping to be able to get rid of the pain and annoyance that had cringed her. At that moment, the tears were already flowing
