Chapter 33

Author: Cold Cloud Deviant
In the Oceansky Hotel's parking lot, a security guard stood beside the electric scooter, patiently waiting for Elio. The general manager had expressly instructed him to keep an eye on the scooter. In addition, he had a message to pass on to Elio once the young man got back.

After waiting until sundown, the guard finally saw Elio walking over in a hurry. He approached Elio respectfully, saying, "Mr. Cole and the other CEOs are waiting for you in the Imperial Suite, sir. They're hoping you can grace them with your presence."

"Okay, I got it."

Unable to refuse such a formal offer, Elio had no choice but to go into the hotel. A charming female manager was already waiting at the door. She promptly led him to the elevator.

The manager was in her mid-twenties, with a beautiful face and a wonderful figure. She already knew that there was more to this young man than met the eye, so she tried to strike up a conversation with him. "I bet you're a huge VIP, Master Rinz. The people in the suite

    "What are you doing here, kid?" Elio asked.His brother-in-law was always threatening to beat Elio up just because he was bigger and taller. Elio only tolerated him for Evelyn's sake. Dylan was his wife's younger brother after all. Maybe the kid was young and insensible."I'm waiting for you." Dylan stood up and said darkly, "Come with me for a bit. I need to talk to you." He then walked east along the street.Something was off with the boy. Puzzled, Elio jumped onto his scooter and followed him to an open-air basketball court not far away.There was no one there. Dylan stopped under the street lamp and said angrily, "You idiot, get off your bike and get over here! It's all your fault for offending the old man. You even got me in trouble! I was supposed to join the family's company after high school, but you ruined everything! I have to beat you up at least once, or I'll never live it down."Elio frowned. He had never expected this. The boy's parents were not around right now, so

    "Do you want to die?" Elio roared, his gaze sharp. He spun around and kicked two of the thugs on their arms, sending the steel pipe flying out of their hands.Just then, a dark green Land Cruiser sped toward them before braking sharply with an ear-piercing shriek.Seven men in black jumped out of the car before it even came to a stop, with Felix in the lead. They lunged into the group like a pack of tigers, snatching the steel pipes from the thugs' hands.The thugs were all thrown to the ground, crying out in pain.James was scared out of his wits. His face was pale. These guys who had appeared out of nowhere were utterly ruthless! Only a fool would stay and fight when the odds were stacked against them. Gritting his teeth through the pain, James scrambled up from the ground and toward his car."Where do you think you're going?" Felix snorted and threw a steel pipe like a bullet. It struck the crook of James' leg."Argh…!" James collapsed, howling. "Elio, you bastard, how dare yo

    Once he saw Elio's ruthless side, he was completely terrified. For the first time ever, he apologized. “I-I’m sorry.” He blushed and continued, "I'm sorry for everything I’ve done in the past. I promise I’ll never do it again."Elio jumped onto his scooter, glancing sideways at the strapping young lad. "At least you have a decent head on your shoulders. Don't worry, I’ll be good to you. However, there are some things you should keep to yourself. For example, what you saw just now… You’d be wise to pretend that never happened. Do you understand?""Understood. I definitely won't say anything when I get home." Dylan blushed again. What was there to say? He was so frightened that he fell to his knees and almost peed his pants. It was embarrassing.The Jones family house was quite old. It had four bedrooms, two halls, and one bathroom. The rooms were all very small, and the decor was outdated. It was decrepit compared to some of the fancy new houses.Once Elio returned home, his mother-

    "Let me see that watch." Sheila ran over barefoot and bent down to look at her brother-in-law's wrist. Her collar was wide open, but she did not notice as she asked curiously, "Huh? This watch seems to be quite valuable. It should be worth a few tens of thousands, right? Who would be generous enough to give it to you?""As if!" Lana scoffed. "You must be mistaken. A loser like him would never wear a watch that valuable. Enough of this nonsense. Elio, hurry up and wash the dishes, then mop the floor." Since her son did not like the watch, she let the matter go. However, she still had to make her son-in-law do the housework. It would be a waste not to use their free houseservant.Elio glanced at his sister-in-law's open collar. Her body was developing nicely, he thought. After that, he casually lied and said, “Oh, it’s just a gift from an ordinary friend. They said it’s an intimation worth less than a hundred dollars. They were too embarrassed to wear it, so they gave it to me.""

    Elio smiled wryly, his tone bitter. "Of course you wouldn't know, because you've never looked me in the eye. Do you even understand me?"Evelyn's heart shook. She had thought that he was naturally thick-skinned, since he stayed impassive in the face of everyone’s insults and her mother’s cruelty. It was as if he never took any of it to heart. Now, though, she knew that she had been wrong. He felt hurt too.Still, so what? She resented her fate as well!"Don’t try to guilt me into feeling bad for you. I never wanted this marriage, so I won’t be kind to you. Nevertheless, it’s good that you found a job. I hope you can persevere with it, so you can support yourself when you eventually leave this household.”Evelyn's implication was clear. They would definitely get a divorce in the future. It was only a matter of time before Elio was kicked out. Love could not be forced. One day, the two of them would have to part ways!Elio's heart ached, but his face looked perfectly calm. He no

    The night passed without incident.Evelyn woke up early because she had something on her mind. She got up and drew the curtains. The morning light shone through the glass window and reflected her tall figure. She stretched, secretly cheering herself on. ‘Come on,’ she told herself, ‘everything will be alright!’Sneaking past the bed, Evelyn stopped and glanced at the man sleeping on the floor for the first time. She had to admit that he was quite handsome. The problem was he was so unambitious and mediocre! His good looks did not matter after that.Nevertheless, they were husband and wife. Even if they had never been intimate, he was still her husband in name.Evelyn hoped that Elio could get a steady job. If he could at least support himself, she would not have to worry that he would starve to death. Then she could let him go properly when the time came!It had been three years since Elio last woke up naturally. He did not need to wake up early to cook and clean anymore. Evelyn h

    "If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to beat around the bush," Evelyn said coldly."Alright then, let's get the point. I know that your company has been short of funds recently. To make things worse, your grandfather has said that he won't give you a single cent of support. I'm sure you're very anxious, right?"Yvonne placed a bank card on the desk with her slender fingers. "There's five million dollars in this card. It’s all yours. It should be able to get you over this crisis.""What do you want?" Evelyn asked with a frown. She did not believe that Yvonne was doing this out of the kindness of her heart.Yvonne smiled sweetly. "Of course, I'm not giving you the money for nothing. As long as you divorce Elio and give him his freedom, the money will be yours. You don't even like him, anyway. You might as well let him go."Evelyn was shocked. She stared at the beautiful woman in utter confusion. "Why are you doing this? Don’t tell me you like him?""That's ri

    Elio did not know about the private face-off between the two beautiful women. He would have burst a blood vessel if he knew. How could Yvonne try to buy him for ten million dollars?! He was worth billions, at least. Fortunately, Evelyn did not agree to sell him.Elio rode his scooter to Parallel Cars Dealer, planning to buy a new car. He was used to riding his trusty bike, come rain or shine. Now that he had the money, he naturally wanted to improve his quality of life. Besides, he was about to establish a company, so he needed a luxury car for his daily travel. The scooter stopped in front of the huge store. After Elio locked the rear wheels, he took his key with him into the bright and spacious hall.The shop assistants had been watching him with interest through the glass window since Elio rode into the parking lot on his scooter. They whispered among themselves, amused."Who is that guy? Could he be a potential customer here to buy a car? I’ve never seen someone riding a sco

    "What?" Charlie's anger boiled over, his face turning bright red as he yelled, "This is too much! I want to see your chairman! He needs to apologize, or he'll regret it when I trash this place!"Laird gave a cold snort, grabbed the ready walkie-talkie, and called out, "Security, get in here, quick! We've got someone trying to wreck the place."In a flash, four security guards in black suits rushed into the room, grabbed Charlie, and marched him right out the door.The poor Jones family heir thought he could throw his weight around, but instead, he got a beating from the guards and ended up tossed outside, his suit torn and his face a mess of bruises.He tried to get up, wanting to shout insults, but the angry stares from the guards scared him silent.

Bosses from real estate and construction companies were all on the phone, trying to get the scoop.The Aerin Group was pretty new and not well-known in Cloudsea. Now, all of a sudden, it was the talk of the town. The big project that everyone wanted had somehow ended up with them, and it was really weird.The project to fix up the old town was massive, and lots of companies wanted to work on it.

    York nodded non-stop, apologizing. "Got it. Please forgive me. I'm really sorry."With the bill canceled, Elio felt they had done enough. "Let's call it even. Time to go."They walked out, heads high, leaving the staff and the hostesses in awe. York sat on the couch, face grim, and gulped down the fake Louis XIII. It was liquor from some other brand, cleverly resealed to look like the fancy stuff. It tasted pretty good, and hardly anyone could tell it was not the real deal. However, somehow, that kid figured it out. Who was he, anyway?York was fuming. Ever since his shop opened, he had sold bottle after bottle of this top-notch liquor to all sorts of important people, and no one had ever called him out. Now, some nobody had caught him."That little troublemaker, causing a scene in my shop," he grumbled. "Just you wait. I'll take care of you."As the boss was getting worked up and ready to get even, one of the girls spoke up, "That Mr. Rinz seems pretty impressive. I heard he even

    York asked with a friendly smile, "I don't think I've met this young man before. Can someone introduce him?"Yvonne replied with a grin, "This is Mr. Rinz, a dear friend of ours. He's the one who wanted to meet you."York did not know Elio's story, and he looked like an average guy. However, he had ordered three bottles of the fancy Louis XIII cognac and seemed to be friends with some pretty important people, including a famous TV beauty. York could not help but be impressed."Really? I'm super honored and happy to meet you, Mr. Rinz. Hope you'll come to hang out with us more," York said with a big smile. He's the kind of guy who knew just what to say and was ready to shake hands, showing lots of respect. However, Elio did not reach out his hand at all, which made York's smile disappear, and he felt really annoyed inside.Elio just frowned and said, "I think once is enough for this place." Yvonne and the others exchanged puzzled looks. They had no clue why Elio was upset and wh

    "You think you can hit me and get away with it? I could ruin your family in an instant. Now, get out of here, do you hear me?" Tanner yelled at her."You..." Fear flickered in May's eyes. She was too scared to argue, worried about what he might do to her.Jenny let out a sigh, went over to help her friend up, and whispered, "Let's just go. We can't stand up to him. We've just got to deal with this bad luck."May knew the truth. She and Jenny might come from money, but they were nothing compared to Tanner's powerful family. What could she do? If she pushed him too far, she was afraid he might make her disappear for good.May had no choice but to follow her best friend, looking all messy and upset. She did not think she would end up like that, feeling so angry. She was mad at Tanner for messing with her feelings and even madder at Elio, thinking he had a big part in her troubles.The room was super quiet; no one wanted to talk. Tanner was in a bad mood—he got tricked by someone not

    As Evelyn's figure vanished from view, May frowned deeply and sneered, "She's so hopeless. She can't even handle her husband. Being a woman like that is just embarrassing.""Come on, don't be so hard on her," Jenny said. "Evelyn's got guts. She was ready to divorce Elio to stand up for what's right. Friends like her are rare.""Hmph, what good does that do? She still didn't get the stuff back. I really thought she could handle that jerk, but it was a waste," May said, not hiding her scorn."May, just a heads-up," Jenny lowered her voice, "the divorce might be good for Evelyn, but it puts you at risk. I've noticed Tanner looking her way a lot. Be careful."May felt a chill, sensing trouble, but she pushed back, "No way. Tanner told me he only loves me. You're just worrying too much."Jenny could tell what her best friend was thinking but kept it to herself. "Okay, let's just say I didn't mention anything. Let's head back."In the private room, Tanner was eager to hear the news. Wh

    Jenny and May were shocked, staring at each other and not knowing what to do.The couple was at a breaking point. May felt a rush of panic. Did that mean she would never get back the fancy watch and the big Benz? She quickly pulled on Evelyn's arm, trying to tell her friend not to say things she could not take back. However, it was too late."That's for the best," Evelyn snapped. "From now on, we're nothing to each other.""Let's just hope we're both happy from here on out," Elio said, trying to sound indifferent. However, inside, it felt like a thousand needles were poking his heart.Evelyn did not look back. She turned and walked away fast, a cold air swirling around her.Jenny and May ran after her, calling out, "Evelyn, wait up!""Don't leave, wait for us!"Evelyn felt a heavy sadness. They had been married for three years, together every day. To say she felt nothing would be a lie. Even though she never really respected Elio, going their separate ways was still hard to take

    The Seven Fairies Team was a tough bunch, and except for Helen, each one had fought their way to success in the cutthroat world of business. They were not about to let anyone push them around.With a loud "smack," Jenny's cheek stung from a fierce slap. She let out a sharp cry and glared at Yvonne. "Ouch! How dare you hit me?""You insult us, and you think a slap is too much?" Yvonne spat back, her teeth clenched in anger.May was not lucky, either. She, too, got slapped, leaving a bright red mark on her face. Lydia, who did it, shouted at her, "Who are you calling names, huh?"Jenny and May were no pushovers, but now, with their cheeks burning from the slaps and surrounded by a group of fierce-looking girls, they were boiling with rage inside. Yet, they did not dare to strike back, appearing utterly defeated and powerless.It was not the super-tough opponents they needed to worry about. It was the teammates who messed everything up!Evelyn had been sure she could get back those

    The women finally got it—the beautiful woman was Elio's wife. Yarely and the others stood up for a better look.A bunch of girls with eyes as wide as saucers were watching everything unfold, each one silently agreeing that Evelyn was the picture of perfection. It was no surprise that Master Rinz could keep his cool, even with all those stunning girls around him.Evelyn scanned the room, and it hit her—they were all gorgeous girls, and Elio was the only boy. It was just like the old saying: he was the lone rooster in the henhouse.When Yvonne tried to be friendly, Evelyn was not having any of it. She huffed, "Forget it. I just need to talk to Elio about something private. I'll be out of your hair in no time."That made Evelyn seem super stuck-up and hard to talk to. Yarely and the others felt put off, so they just sat back down on the couch.They were all tough cookies, top dogs in their own right.
