Chapter 190 - Face Slapping (Part 1)

"Who am I to interfere? Well, I am not someone special. I am just worried that you will offend the soon to be Mrs. Miller, the boss of the boss of the Millers corps 

When Kyra's step mother heard it she started to laugh making Oliver angry. 

"Her? Mrs. Millers?" she asked, laughing. 

"Well, don't you believe?" Oliver asked. 

"Why should I? I can go and say that I am the president's wife." her step mother mocked. 

Oliver wrinkled his nose in disgust. How did his girlfriend tolerate a lady like this for years?? 

No wonder she was very depressed back then. 

Anger rushed into him when he started to imagine how this arrogant, stupid woman would have tortured Kyra. 

"Well, I can prove it." Oliver said. 

"In a few seconds you will be getting a call from the manager." Oliver said and just as he finished, Kyra's step mother's phone started to ring. 

When she saw who the caller was, her eyes filled with fear. It is the manager who came to make an offer representing Miller Corps. 

And, the contents of the call made her legs tremble. 

"Did you like the gift for offending your lady boss here?" Oliver asked. 

Kyra's stepmother Rose looked at Oliver in horror. Just now she received a phone call from the manager who just informed that the contact has been revoked. As the contract has not yet been signed, she can't even ask for the compensation fees. 

She should have signed it. But she thought that if she waited for a little longer, they might increase the price. Her greed has just backlashed on her. 

"You- what did you do?" Rose asked in panic. The offer was so good that she felt like the happiest woman alive. She even bought a huge plot in the city and even gave money to a contractor to build a luxurious house there. 

Though she didn't have money at that time to afford these things, she has taken a loan from loan sharks and banks, confident that she could pay them back once the money from Miller corps is settled. 

Now, what should she do?

As she gave the money to the contractor, the cancellation fees will be more than what she could afford right now. Till that contract to build a house is revoked, no one will buy that plot. 

How will she manage? Not to mention the interest she has to pay to those greedy landlords. 

However, she is not ready to cave in to her step daughter. 

"So… so. What if you have got the contract canceled? I can go to other companies who are lining up for this hotel." Rose blurted out. The price offered by Miller corps is far, far better than what other companies have offered. 

But, she doesn't have any other choice. 

"Other companies?" Oliver laughed. 

"Do you think that other companies will dare to go against Miller corps? If you get blacklisted by Millers no one would even take your hotel for free." Oliver said. 

"You- this is called bullying. I will complain to the cops." Rose stuttered in fear. 

She underestimated this guy without any thought. 

The reason was simple. As he is with her step daughter, he is worthless and insignificant. 

But who would have thought that her step daughter has powerful connections like this guy here. 

Meanwhile, Kyra who was in shock because of the cruel discovery, composed her mental stability and looked at her boyfriend who is lashing out on her step mother. 

He called her soon to be Mrs. Millers. 

That alone suppressed half of her pain. 

Seeing him doing all this for her, she didn't feel the need to grieve because of someone as insignificant as her step mother. After all, Oliver has never ever used his power for something purely personal. He never crossed the line and it was said to be his bottom line. 

"Cops?" Oliver laughed again and looked at Kyra. 

"Love, did you record the audio?" he asked, his face turning gentle. 

Kyra smiled and showed him a tiny recorder she has on her table. As soon as she saw her step mother entering the room, the first thing she did was to turn on the recorder. 

She clicked on the tiny play button and the recording started to play. Everything she spoke about trying to kill her step daughter and confessing about her role in it are clearly audible. 

While Kyra was playing the recording, Jennifer and Anthony entered the room. They got a phone call from Ron and he informed them about this crazy lady who started to lash out on Kyra. 

It didn't take them much time to guess who that woman could be. They left their lunch in the middle and hurried here. There are only a few people as it is still lunchtime and these people were standing out confused and curious. 

Justin was trying his best to keep them out so that Kyra won't get humiliated in front of her colleagues. 

Her third brother and Jennifer joined Kyra and they looked worriedly at her, hoping that she is fine. 

But they never expected to see her this calm and peaceful. 

They lost their cool self when they found out how Kyra's step mother tampered with Kyra's medicines which led her into deep depression which was the cause of the attempted sucide. 

Anthony was enraged and so was Oliver. If not because of Kyra who stopped them, her step mother would have beaten black and blue. 

Rose trembled. She didn't expect her step daughter to become this shrewd and insightful. 

And, this guy here just called her 'Love'. 

Does that mean he is Mr. Miller, the CEO of Miller Corps. It makes sense. Only he, The CEO, could make the contract get revoked this fast. 

So, her good to nothing step daughter is marrying a CEO while her precious, pampered daughter has to marry some country guy??

"Oliver, even if we give this to the cops, she won't be getting the punishment she deserves." Anthony told Oliver. 

Kyra is alive and her step mother has only stopped giving the prescribed pills to Kyra. She didn't get involved in direct murder attempt. 

At most, she will become a prisoner for a few years. 

"Yeah, she deserves something more torturous." Jennifer agreed. 

"Who are you guys to judge what I deserve??" Rose spatted furiously. 

"And, it's fine if you cancel the contract! I can still manage to stay afloat. Even if I get punished for what I did a decade ago, it still won't change a thing." she added. 

This time Anthony and Oliver both laughed at the same time. 

"Are you talking about the land and house you own?" Anthony asked. 

"She just said that her lands are being purchased by some London based company to build some industry." Oliver told Anthony. 

Jennifer quickly searched and when she saw who owns that company she couldn't hold her grin. 

"Oh. I pity the devil stepmother of your Ky. She indeed has the worst luck this year," Jennifer said and when Anthony and Oliver searched the same, they started to laugh too. 

"Guys, what's so funny?" Kyra asked. 

"It's L&K Groups that decided to buy the land outside the town." Anthony told his sister. 

"Seriously, don't you know what your own company is doing nowadays?" He chided his sister. 

"I am busy in my career as a surgeon. Lisa and I have divided the work." Kyra answered. 

"No wonder Lisa was excited. She told me that she has prepared a good gift for Kyra." Oliver said. He is really happy with the gift Lisa prepared. 

"That brat told me that she was looking for land to build a fabric industry." Anthony recalled. L&K groups, which are owned by Kyra and Lisa, entered the clothing industry a few years ago and they decided to have their own fabric made as it is more economical and profitable. As they have already started their second headquarters here, they decided to build the fabric empire starting here. 

While the four of them were talking about this, Rose, Kyra's step mother, was dumbfounded. 

Her step daughter owns a company??

How did this happen and when exactly has she become this successful??

And, why should it be her step daughter's company that has approached for buying the land!

"It's fine. Don't buy!! It's not like there are no people to buy it." Rose yelled, helpless. 

L&K Groups have offered triple the original amount that she became exhilarated. She was so happy that she used all the hard earned money of her son and daughter to buy the lands around the land where the fabric industries would be coming. She even loaned some money for buying the lands. 

Now, if the fabric industry is not coming anymore, the land she bought is simply waste. When she bought the lands, they were a little more expensive than the usual rate because Miller corps was building the resorts. 

Now, there is no fabric industry and no resorts. 

She will be bankrupt.. Even if she sells everything she owns, she wouldn't be able to pay the debt she accumulated.
