Chris was losing it.

Watching that man’s car drive in, all the recent events replayed in his mind.

“Since when did this place have an owner?”

“Not long, maybe about a month ago, Kevin replied after some thought.

Everyone had assumed the estate was vacant.

Chris scoffed, “A month, huh?”

A lot had happened in that time. Ever since he postponed his wedding with Olivia, trouble had come one after another.

But one thing stood out–his run–in with that man at Cloudridge Valley.

After that, he never saw Stephanie at that place again.

Instead, she turned up here.

So, that man… he was the owner of this estate?

Chris closed his eyes, his entire body radiating cold fury.

Olivia. Why did she keep showing up in his life like a ghost that refused to leave? It was bad enough she was tied to Macro and Allison.

Now, she was connected to this place too?

She had to be doing this on purpose.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got.

Kevin hesitated before asking, “Should we ask Miss Giovanni about it?”

From the looks of things, she was staying here.

If Chris wanted to buy this place for Olivia’s recovery, he’d have to go through her.

Chris’s expression darkened even further. “Ask her what? So she can humiliate Olivia?”

Kevin fell silent.

‘Humiliation?‘

Looking at the situation now, both Chris and Olivia had been completely played by Stephanie.

They had exhausted themselves trying to buy the estate, only to find out she had been living there all along.

The frustration burning inside Chris was unbearable.

His phone buzzed. It was his father, Fred.

He ignored the call, but then Kevin’s phone rang. Unlike Chris, Kevin didn’t have the luxury of ignoring Fred.

“Sir,” Kevin answered respectfully.

Fred’s voice was sharp and commanding. “Give the phone to Chris.”

The anger in his tone made it clear–if Chris were in front of him right now, Fred would probably tear him apart.

Kevin glanced at the backseat, where Chris sat with his eyes closed. Covering the receiver, he murmured, “Sir, it’s your

father.”

Chris sighed, opened his eyes, and took the phone. “Father.”

“You went to Whispering Bay again?” Fred’s voice was ice–cold.”
