Chapter 74

Marcus paused for a second when he heard the voice, frowning as he checked the caller ID. A completely unfamiliar number. "Where are you?" he asked in a low tone. "I'm downstairs at your company," Oliver replied with a cheeky grin. "You wouldn't set me up with some shady school, right? I'm dressed like this—don't tell me I'm embarrassing you guys." He restated his point, just to prevent Marcus from turning him down. Marcus thought for a couple of seconds, then said, "Give the phone to the receptionist." "Yes, sir," the young receptionist greeted him nervously. "Let him up," Marcus ordered without much emotion. "Yes, Marcus." After she hung up, she immediately ushered Oliver into the elevator. Oliver made it all the way to Marcus's office without anyone stopping him. He knocked on the door, then strolled in like he was on a casual visit. "Good morning, Uncle Marcus," he said brightly, eyeing the space. "Wow, your office is huge. Super fancy too." Marcus didn't respond to the compliment.
