Chapter 98: Powerful hand -- behind the scene

Olivia gave a reassuring nod to Jack. She just wanted to forget about all the bad things and live a happy life.

Jack didn’t ask her further questions. He left it to her decision, and he thought inside that Emily and the others must have continued to brainwash her into this state.

Otherwise, if she were left alone, she couldn’t have let go of this hatred this easily.

Victor, who was admitted for several days in the hospital, had his mind in constant chaos. The things that happened in the pig shed and the side effects of the drugs created a heavy trauma in his mind.

He suffered sleepless nights in the hospital. After his health somewhat improved, and when his body overall looked normal on the outside so that it could not arouse any doubt from Vanessa,

Only then did he decide to return home. And while all his activities were constantly reported to Jack by Victor’s assistant Mark,

Jack immediately informed Vanessa about Victor’s return so she could prepare herself.

When Victor returned home, Vanessa looked at him and inquired,

"Where have you been these days? Why didn’t you answer your phone? Every time it was Mark who answered your phone instead of you."

Vanessa put a worried look on her face and continued her act.

"Victor, if there is any problem, you can discuss it with me. Don’t hide anything from me."

Victor, seeing Vanessa’s beautiful worried face and her tempting body, once again remembered that he would not be able to touch her anymore.

But he didn’t show anything outside and explained, "There was an emergency situation at a friend’s place. I was held up there these past few days.

That’s why I couldn’t answer your calls."

He walked towards Vanessa and gave her a light hug.

After consoling Vanessa, he walked with her to have his morning breakfast. The food in the hospital was really not suitable for his taste. There were many meat dishes prepared on the table,

ready to be served. When Victor took his first bite, he thought inside, what is this meat, it really tastes good, and he continued to eat. After some time, out of curiosity, he asked Vanessa,

"Wife, what is this meat? It tastes different from the regular meat. Did you change the place where we regularly buy from?"

Vanessa looked at Victor, who was looking at her curiously, and said,

"Victor, this is not beef, it’s pork. A few days ago, I tried a Chinese cuisine made with pork meat. I liked it very much, so I ordered the chef in our house to cook the same dish.

I knew you would like it."

When Victor heard the name pork from Vanessa’s mouth, he spat out all the meat that he was chewing in his mouth.

"Eughhhh..."

He closed his mouth and ran straight towards the nearby toilet.

"Eughhhhhh.... Eughhhhhhhhh..."

Continuous vomiting sounds were heard from inside the bathroom. Vanessa, who watched Victor’s reaction after hearing the name pork,

revealed a cold smile. There was not an inch of sympathy in Vanessa’s mind at that time when seeing Victor like this.

In the next few days, Victor was reminded of this incident he was trying to forget one way or another. He completely lost his sleep and was affected by insomnia, and his mind went into a deep depression mode.

He decided to visit the company that day. But when he went inside his office, there was a parcel placed on his table.

When he opened it, inside was his photo in that pig shed and a pig doll with a knife stabbed into it.

"Aaaaahhhh....."

Victor shouted like a madman and pushed and broke all the things on the table.

"Markkkk..... Who sent this parcel? Immediately investigate the matter."

When they investigated and watched the CCTV footage, there was a black-clothed person wearing a mask on his face infiltrating their company building and placing the parcel on the table.

After seeing the CCTV video, Victor thought that this must have been done by the person behind all of this. Who is this person, what kind of grudge does he hold against me?

From the previous investigation about how he got kidnapped from his private club,

nothing concrete came out of it. Victor couldn’t go to the agency people about these things, so he hired a private investigation team, but still nothing came out of it.

Only money was wasted on these useless people. From their investigation, there was no evidence found that he visited the club at that time. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

After hearing their ridiculous investigation result, Victor chased all of them away.

These kinds of things continued every now and then, constantly triggering his sore spot.

His mind was in constant alertness about preventing anyone from knowing about this incident.

One day, when he was doing some work in the office, Mark entered his office and reported,

"Boss, there is a rumor spreading among the employees about someone in the company having a strange hobby, going to pig farms regularly and abusing pigs."

Victor froze and sat there blankly without replying, as if something in him snapped.

His eyes nearly became reddish from the lack of proper sleep and the constant pressure from the person who was doing this to him.

Seeing him like this, Mark immediately consoled him.

"Boss, they never mentioned your name in that rumor. I investigated who spread this rumor.

Every employee in the company received an anonymous message about this matter."

In Victor’s lifeless eyes, some life once again returned after hearing this consolation.

He muttered silently to himself, "This cannot continue. I need to know who is behind all of this. What’s their motive behind all of this? But how could I do this?"

He immediately thought of asking a favor from the director of the central police agency, but soon he dismissed the idea.

The person who was doing all of this seemed extremely powerful. There was not even a trace left of that kidnapping.

When he sent men to finish off the two farmers and their friends who witnessed the humiliation, those people also vanished into thin air.

From all of this, he could discern one thing. There was a powerful hand playing a huge role behind this.
