Chapter 111: Revealing the Truth

Oliver: "..."

’Eh? Five conditions?! Well... it’s not that I’m complaining... but I hope to fulfill those five conditions soon so that Athena will officially become our hotel ambassador.’ Oliver thought to himself.

"Sure. I’ll wait for the other conditions. Please let me know soon." He let out a soft chuckle, scratching his face. "But please don’t change your mind. I will do my best to do it."

"Of course. We don’t take back our words," Lanny reassured him.

Oliver was satisfied when he heard that. "I’m going to send an invitation to you and Athena during my engagement party. I will also arrange her performance. Thank you again for giving me another chance."

"I apologize on my fiancé’s behalf," he added.

"Let’s forget about her," Lanny said meaningfully. ’We prepared a surprise for her during your engagement party...’ she thought inwardly, flashing a cunning smile.

"Is there anything you want to ask regarding the contract? I can send it to you for your review." Oliver changed the topic.

"No worries about the contract. I will review it thoroughly. By the way, regarding your fiancé, are you sure you want to marry that scandalous woman? If I were you, I would have to reconsider it. Aren’t you afraid she would ruin your family’s name?" Lanny warned him.

"Do you really like that woman?" She asked.

Oliver could only exhale deeply. "I have no choice. It’s an agreement between our families. I can’t disappoint my father. Her father and my father are friends and business partners."

Lanny just shrugged her shoulders. "Well, what if you find someone you truly like, you won’t fight for her?"

Oliver just smiled faintly. "Fortunately, I don’t have someone I like. I am busy with business. Marrying someone who can strengthen our power is my obligation as a son of the Jones Family.

"Okay. I understand."

"So far... the woman I’m interested in right now... is Athena... I’m curious about her. I wanna see her face. Ashton is so lucky to see her face." Oliver admitted, mentioning Athena and Ashton.

Lanny let out a soft giggle. "Oh... do you want to pursue Athena?"

Oliver chuckled, feeling a little bit embarrassed. "You can’t blame me. My friends and I have a crush on her."

"So Mr. Ashton Davis is part of your circle of friends?" Lanny asked him, intrigued. She wanted to know the connections among those bachelors.

Oliver bobbed his head. "Yes. Ashton, Timothy, and even Dominique Smith are part of my circle of friends."

Lanny’s lips curled up when she heard that. "Timothy Wilson, what do you know about him? What can you say about his attitude?" She began gathering information about Timothy.

Oliver fell silent for a moment, rubbing his chin. He was puzzled as to why Athena’s manager showed interest in Timothy.

"He is a famous personality who owns the number one entertainment company in the country. Are you planning to sign Athena as one of his artists?" Oliver asked her curiously.

"We are going to meet him later. We will negotiate. By the way, since you are his friend, I wonder if you know something about his personal life. Does he have a girlfriend right now?" Lanny was frank and direct.

Since Oliver didn’t want to disappoint Lanny, he immediately responded, selling out his friend.

"Timothy doesn’t have a girlfriend. I’m sorry to say this... but my friend didn’t have a serious relationship with a woman. He hates commitment. He likes to fool around. In short, he is a playboy... a known Cassanova!"

"Please be cautious of him. He is my friend but I want to protect Athena from him. He is a King of Simp. Don’t be deceived by his charm. He always flirts with beautiful women. And he might target Athena." Oliver warned Lanny since he was concerned about Athena.

When it came to women, Timothy couldn’t be trusted. Now, Lanny could understand the big possibility of Timothy having a secret affair with Sasha.

Meanwhile, Athena was also listening to the conversation between Lanny and Oliver. She could figure out now why Sasha was getting involved with Timothy. She still didn’t want to let go of Dominique. Her relationship with Timothy might be for pleasure only, but not a serious relationship.

"Thank you for giving me this heads-up, Mr. Jones. I truly appreciate that. I’ll protect Athena from him." Lanny expressed her gratitude. Oliver was a decent guy. She liked him.

The two were still talking when Enzo arrived, delivering their food and drinks. Enzo started working in Vladimir’s Cafe as one of the waiters. He had been observing Lanny and Oliver from afar.

"Mr. Williams, are you working here? Aren’t you going back to work at your Uncle’s company?" Oliver asked Enzo. He finally remembered Enzo. He was the previous CEO of the Williams Company while Albert Williams was the Chairman. But today, the company was named W Diamond Group which was now headed by his Uncle, Alfonso Williams.

Enzo just gave him a faint smile. "I don’t work there anymore. Yes, for now, I am temporarily working here."

Oliver just nodded in response. He was still embarrassed because of the ruckus Melody created before. She accused Enzo of being a murderer.

"Oh, right. Can you invite Enzo as well during your engagement party? He will be my escort." Lanny asked Oliver a favor. She wanted to show Enzo how they would bring down Melody as part of their revenge.

"Sure. I will invite him too!" Oliver didn’t hesitate to agree.

"Thanks, Mr. Jones. Now enjoy your food and drinks."

Lanny continued to entertain Oliver, talking about his company. It did not take long before Oliver had to say goodbye. They made an agreement and Lanny had achieved her goal.

When Oliver left, Athena joined her at her table.

"Mission accomplished!" Lanny nudged Athena’s shoulder, giving her a high-five.

Athena smiled in satisfaction. "Yes. Now, we have to wait for Timothy. It’s still early. We can have lunch together with Enzo."

"Yes, that’s true." Lanny agreed.

"By the way, Lanny... I think... It’s best for my brother to know the truth. I don’t want to keep things from him. I already revealed the truth to Vladimir. Maybe, this is the right time we share the truth with Enzo. Let’s not keep him in the dark anymore. What do you think?" Athena consulted Lanny. She finally realized that hiding things from Enzo would just complicate things.

"Yes, Athena. I think it’s best for us to reveal the truth. Enzo has the right to know what happened to his family and his sister, Sabrina."

"But Lanny, I won’t tell him yet that I’m Sabrina. But I want him to know what happened in the past– how did he lose the company and who are his enemies." Athena suggested. She would do it step by step. For now, she couldn’t reveal that she was Sabrina to her own brother.

"Okay. The most important thing is to let him know what happened in the past. Do you want me to talk to him?" Lanny asked Athena.

"Yes, Lanny. I am asking you this favor. Please tell him about our past. He will trust you more." Athena smiled at her gratefully. This was also her strategy of making the two become closer to each other. Athena was still hoping that Enzo would recover his memory and he would remember Lanny.

"I will reveal that I am Sabrina once he remembers some of his memories in the past," Athena added.

Lanny patted her shoulder, giving her support. "Alright. Take your time."

After their discussion, Athena called Enzo, telling him that Lanny wanted to talk to him. She gave them some privacy.

Soon, Enzo settled down, next to Lanny.

"Athena said you wanted to talk to me. What is it, Lanny?" Enzo asked her curiously.

Lanny met his gaze, staring at him intently. "Enzo, listen to me carefully. There are things you should know. Since you are back here in York City, it’s best for you to know the reason why your own cousin, Melody, accused you and why she hated you."

Enzo was all ears on her. He had been waiting for this. He somehow sensed that Lanny and Athena were hiding something from him.

"Enzo," Lanny softly called his name. Then she held his hand, squeezing it gently. "Listen to me carefully."

"Your Uncle Alfonso, and your former brother-in-law, Dominique Smith, conspired together to steal the company which was built by your late father. They betrayed you and Sabrina because of their greed."

"Dominique cheated on your sister with his secretary... who is now his current wife. He just used her to acquire your family’s wealth."

Enzo was utterly shocked when he heard those revelations. It was too much for his brain to process. He felt an overwhelming rage as he finally put the pieces together.

’They hurt my sister... I won’t forgive them!’ He clenched his fists tightly. Lanny could feel his anger surging up in his chest.

"Enzo, don’t worry. You did your best to protect her. Sabrina is not dead. She’s alive. But Dominique and the Williams Family thought she was dead."

Enzo: "..."

’My sister is still alive... ’
