Back at DOC International

Olivia had her legs crossed as she stared directly at Regan Wales, a prideful smugness lingering around her lips.

She thought that this guy had underestimated her ability to see and predict what might happen in the coming days.

She did not just resume work to make connections with other businessmen before launching her attacks at those who had hurt her.

Olivia had long been prepared.

Having stayed a week at the hospital, gradually recovering from the emotional and psychological damage Mike and her family had given her, she had vowed to retaliate tenfold.

"Assistant Regan Wales, don't you have something to say?"

She asked, her taunts audible and her expression mocking and challenging.

Regan could Only massage his temples. Needless to say, he was shocked at the turn of events; he did not expect a huge storm to ensue in just one night.

Just yesterday, Olivia demanded that he prepare detailed contract information for the ongoing rural renovation.

    Disclaimer: hideous and bloody scene ahead.Olivia could only chuckle at Claire's childish words."Alright, Miss Claire. Since I can't call you Doctor Claire, then I guess I'm able to call you Miss Claire!"She deadpanned. Claire rolled her eyes at her. She downed the drink in her glass, elegantly stood up from the cushion, and took strides around the office building."Well, you can directly call me sister-in-law, you know!"Claire grinned playfully. Olivia could only use her palm to gently spank her forehead in distress."Yeah, I do. But I'm not interested; it sounds odd to me."Olivia refused, shaking her head and cringing at the thought of calling her gynecologist, sister-in-law.Olivia had met Claire back in high school. They were both the best students in different grades.Claire Collymore was popular for being an intelligent chemist.

    Disclaimer: hideous and bloody scene ahead.Mike Huxley twisted the device repeatedly as if he were drilling a well in Aiden Chess' head.Repeatedly, he'll pull it out, taking each bone that falls from it and sucking out the blood before throwing the piece to the ground.Eventually, a big hole was visible in Aiden's head. Mike proceeded to pick out a shimmering, sharp knife about ten meters long.He turns the knife around. Each time the rays from the sun hit it, it creates contrast light.He laughed out loud as he brought the knife closer to his eyes. With just a slash within a second, blood was all over his handsome face.His hands were covered in blood, and the floor was completely dyed red. He then pressed a button on the handle of the knife.The knife changed its shape, now looking short with wide, sharp blades. Mike grins, bringing the knife closer to his face.He made three cuts and then stood up, his black pants dripping red, and his sky blue t-shirt had red all over it.The bo

    Laila was instantly alarmed. Moving behind a huge tree at the side and at the same time, Knight moved behind a tree in the opposite direction.Laila brought out a silencer, which she calmly installed in the gun she had hidden beneath her coat."Oh my god, what happened here?"Someone among the three men who had just appeared asked. He increased the contrast of the touch light he was holding, and they all gasped."Who did this?" They all asked at the same time.Instantly, they were terrified. They looked at each other, pointing the light at every corner.The thought that they might have been ambushed by a group of deadly detectives did not occur to them.Instead, "Did the monsters that often appear during snowy days come by?"A middle-aged man who looked somewhat chubby asked, still gazing around."I think we should get going. What if they return?"Another person who looked like someone who had recently turned twenty added. He looked panicked."Mhnm, we should get going." The first guy

    She is only indirectly trying to warn her to beware of Olivia and not get too involved with her. But Claire did not seem to realize her good motive."I… No, that's not what I meant. Haha, I know Darls Collymore wasn't married before, but Big Sis was. Urm.. that.. that's what I mean.Sunitha stuttered. She tried to play the innocent, caring, and concerned little sister, but then again.Neither Olivia nor Claire were new to the antics of the Schemy people. They already saw through Sunitha's plans the moment she began talking.Her actions were so apparent and naive that even a dumb child would understand them."We understand everything; it's way too obvious. Just get your bag and let's go out together."Claire suggested. The fake smile plastered on her face made her look dazzling, and her bright blue eyes held conviction and power that Sunitha could not help but melt under.This is the power of being born and brought up rich, wealthy, and influential. The aura that emanates from them is

    Olivia calmly rang the bell alarm that was installed on her table, getting the attention of the people outside.Simon strides inside, expressionless. It was as if the argument that just broke out did not even affect him."Yes, Madamé," He said, and he bowed."Let them in. I have instructions for them. How about this: I'll inform you if I'm expecting any employees' presence, so you'd let them come in when they arrive?"Olivia asked as she tapped the pen she was holding on the table."Whichever is fine with Madamé is also fine with me."Simon respectfully replied. Olivia smiled and nodded at him."Alright, let's go by that.""Sure, Madamé"Saying that, Simon strides outside. Expecting him to give the two secretaries who she had asked to meet her entry, she heard noises again."What the hell, you want to search me?""Yes, you need to be searched through to make sure you have nothing on you. I can't risk my Madame's safety.""Do you think we are a threat to the CEO?""I'm afraid; I just h

    "Yes, sure, you are right."Sunitha agreed easily and without hesitation. Claire expected her response to be exactly that.She smiled, and they began walking down the stairway."Well, I don't know why you don't like me. Perhaps my big sister said something bad about me; however, I'm a good lady and I work hard for success, unlike her."Sunitha stated as they took a few steps down. Claire's knitted brows raised in amazement as she said"Oh wow, good for you. But I don't quite understand what you mean by, unlike Olivia. I hope you know what you are saying. She's my brother's wife.""Of course, I do know what I'm saying. See, previously, Big Sis was married to the CEO of D'Huxley Cooperation, but they got divorced. Well, their divorce was because of her scandals that were exposed.""Scandals? Oh my God!"Claire exclaimed as she used her palm to cover her mouth, looking surprised. Her actions and expression excited Sunitha."Yes, scandals. Her husband discovered she had been sleeping out

    "You don't have anything to say regarding this?"Olivia asked, grinning playfully. Secretary Samuel Santa gulped a thick lump down his throat.He was speechless and had no words to retort. He did not expect Olivia to have done an in-depth check on past events in the company.He thought he had hidden it properly; he did not know that, despite being in charge of the project, there were others who were supposed to work together with him, but he had sidelined them and he'd selfishly stolen the company's money.Bianca Davison was also surprised as she stared at him. She did not know about this particular project and had no involvement in it.Nine million dollars was already a multiple of the money they had both diverted to their private accounts."Miss Davison, I'll advise you: say what happened because outside that door are policemen.

    Knight wasn't surprised at Laila's words. It has always been a fact that those who join the dark forces are ready to die at any time, but it still made his heart quiver at the thought that one of their own would leave and never come back."I know you aren't afraid of dying, but please don't be reckless.""I heard you; I won't be."Laila replied, grinning from ear to ear, and Knight shook his head with a light smile as they both descended the stairs.As they got closer to the location they had planned to meet, they found a guy in black sitting on a rock and smoking without a care in the world.Laila and Knight's eyes widened."Leo," they said, almost screaming as they rushed over, engulfing him in a hug."Oh, fucking, don't strangle me with your emotional hug."Leo said, shrugging them away, and they both chuckled."Oh my God, I can't believe it's you. I thought you refused to come. Lousy big head"Laila complained, hitting behind his head, and he raised his face to stare at her and th

    It was not a question but an affirmation.Crystalbella found out that she had let it slip. She did not intend to ever say it in her entire life, but now, she had really said too much. She shook off his big palm and continued walking with a humph.Leonardo DiCaprio quickly caught up with her and reached for her little hand.He was in such a happy mood that he had a trace of laughter in his voice. “Mrs. Leo, why didn’t you ask me?

    “The stream water is very cool. Don’t be playful; you are going to catch a cold.”It was rare for him to be so serious as he spoke.

Can you be more gentle?

Something that's so easy!”Crystalbella turned her head over to cover his mouth as she said, “Leonardo DiCaprio, you are not allowed to continue speaking!”Thinking about it was way too embarrassing, but it was also…fate.It was fate that she could not escape in life.“You don't have to ridicule me just because I do not know how to catch a fish.

    Hate was hate, but she still had to eat this meal. She would not go hungry because of that bastard. She called the helpers inside, and the helpers brought in scrumptious and beautifully plated food inside and placed it on the table.Crystalbella sat down in the chair. She had some Fried rice and orange juice, and she was very satisfied.When the helpers took the dishes away, Leonardo DiCaprio came out of the bathroom coincidentally at that moment.He wore a black singlet. His entire body was cold as his masculine figure made the few young helpers bow their heads down immediately.Crystalbella looked on coldly from the side. This man attracted many women, and she was afraid that he would also not reject them when the young helpers in the family approached him. Hmph!At this moment, a deep, charming voice rang out in her ears. “Mrs. Leonardo DiCaprio Collymore, why are you looking at me with this expression in your eyes? How did I offend you?”It was only at that moment that Crystalbell

The father, Andrew Scott and her mom looked at her with tears in their eyes as they said, “Our Moonie has finally grown up. Moonie, you are the most beautiful bride on earth today.”Crystalbella kept rolling her eyes. She moved her hand to pull the green cloth to cover her eyes, and it was better for her not to see all of this.Very quickly, the people outside loudly shouted out, “Mr. Scott, the new son-in-law is here. The son-in-law is here to pick his bride up!”

    Leader Fox and his people were all around, and it seemed that the celebratory party was held there.Crystalbella looked at Leonardo DiCaprio coldly, and he was seated facing her from the side.His right hand held a cocktail glass as he drank, and there was a beautiful, provocatively-dressed woman who held his left elbow. The woman was about to sit down on his lap.Crystalbella snorted coldly and left immediately after that. She just knew that this man was not a good person, he should have touched many women and must have gone to these places many times back in the past.She returned to her room before going into the bathroom to take a shower.The warm water trickled down from the top of her head, and she stretched her hand out to flip her dark hair back before she lifted her hand up to wash her face.Her mind went back to the scene back in the study room of the Wales home.He was half joking and half serious as he pushed her down and kissed her deeply.

    Crystalbella looked over at that side and said, “This is the latest bomb from Germany. This is my first time seeing this. Do you have confidence?”Leonardo DiCaprio looked at the seven wires on the bomb, silently placed both of his hands inside, and turned the knobs carefully.At this critical moment concerning life and death, every small action from him decided her fate, so she stared at his face intently.This was the first time that she looked at him so seriously, and at this moment, he had an extremely serious expression on his face.He did not have any trace of the casualness that he usually had.
