Chapter 6.

Olivia Vatican trembled with rage and humiliation.

She was the CEO of Vatican Pharmaceutical.

The balding man before her, Dr. Shaun, was someone the Vatican family had spared no expense to invite.

A legendary physician renowned across the region, he had been brought in with the hope that he could cure Lord Leonardo Alessandro.

Even if the treatment failed, as long as he made a genuine attempt, Vatican Pharmaceutical, and the Vatican family as a whole, would gain a decisive advantage when competing for the major pharmaceutical contracts under the Alessandro family’s control.

It could even open the door to a direct relationship with the Alessandros themselves.

The Vatican family was wealthy, but still a rising power with shallow roots, ranked below the city’s eight true giants.

If they wanted to climb higher, the backing of the Alessandro family was absolutely crucial.

Yet who could have imagined that Dr. Shaun, so compassionate and benevolent in public, a saint in the eyes of the world, was nothing more than a greedy, lecherous hypocrite in private.

He had already pocketed the Vatican family’s generous consultation f*e.

And yet, the moment he arrived in Vancouver City and laid eyes on Olivia, he brazenly demanded that she sleep with him.

She had, of course, refused such an insult.

The rejection was all it took.

Dr. Shaun hadn’t even paused before turning to Vatican Pharmaceutical’s rival, Johnson Pharmaceutique.

Now, he had gone so far as to have Erik Johnson arrange her capture, all to force her to submit to him.

Like the Vatican family, the Johnsons were also a rising family with shallow foundations.

Securing a legendary doctor like Dr. Shaun was no easy feat, especially when money meant nothing to him and his only obsession was women.

To win him over, the Johnson family spared no effort.

And Erik Johnson, eager to please, carried out every one of Dr. Shaun’s demands without question.

That was how the four men ended up surrounding her here.

Realizing this, Olivia clenched her teeth and snapped coldly, “A shameless, corrupt man like you doesn’t deserve to be called a Legendary Doctor.”

But the angrier she grew, the more delighted Dr. Shaun became.

Women like this only fueled his desire to conquer.

He leaned in, close enough that Olivia could feel his breath against her skin.

“Come on, darling,” he murmured, lifting her chin with one finger. “Be grateful. Not everyone gets the honor of being wanted by someone like me.”

Olivia flinched and recoiled, biting back her disgust.

Dr Shaun burst into cruel laugh, loud and grating, his yellow teeth flashing in the dim light.

“Mr Erik, please escort our beautiful CEO to my room,” he then ordered, his voice low and eager.

“Once I finish treating Lord Leonard Alessandro under your family’s name, I’ll deal with her personally.”

“Oh, and this,” he added, pressing a small bottle into Erik’s hand. “Make sure she swallows it.”

“By the time I’m back, she won’t be acting so high and pure anymore.”

As if imagining something deeply pleasant, Dr. Shaun let out a slick, leering chuckle, his eyes sliding back to Olivia, dark with hunger. “More like a slut, I’d say.”

Erik’s face lit up.

As long as Dr. Shaun treated the patient under Johnson Pharmaceutique’s banner, the Johnson family would gain a foothold with the Alessandro.

“No problem, Dr. Shaun. I’ll see to it myself.”

At his signal, two bodyguards stepped forward.

Strong hands clamped down on Olivia's arms.

Panic surged through her as she struggled violently, her heart pounding with raw fury and fear.

“Let go of me!" she shouted, but their grip only tightened.

"Fuck you," she spat desperately, glaring at Dr Shaun who was now leaning casually against a luxury GLE.

Dr Shaun let out a low, sinister chuckle.

"Careful with that mouth, sweetie. That's exactly what I will be doing to you soon.”

“You’re delusional!” Olivia shot back, her voice shaking but unyielding. “I would rather die than let you have your way!”

Dr Shaun didn’t care in the slightest.

Instead, he stepped closer, gripping her face roughly as he flashed a mouthful of yellowed teeth in a vile grin.

“No one can stop me from fucking you,” he sneered. “As long as you’re breathing, I can keep you alive and run my hands all over you, however I please.”

He leaned in and whispered, his voice dripping with malice, “And even if you don’t survive... that won’t stop me either. Your lips and curves will still be soft enough. I won’t mind fucking a dead beauty, you know?”

A chill ran down Olivia's spine, making every hair on her body stand on end.

She knew all too well what awaited her if she fell into this man’s hands, yet there was nothing she could do to stop it.

Such a monster, hiding behind fame, wealth, and status.

She couldn’t bear to imagine how many women had already been ruined by him.

Just as despair threatened to swallow her whole—

“Let her go!”
