Chapter: 414: Meeting them Zora appeared back at the Blackwood family's estate with Zora and Kai on her shoulder."What's wrong with them?" Atlas quickly ran over inquiring what was wrong with the two, worry written all over his face.Especially Kai who looked all beat up. Blood all over him. Though there were no injuries on Kai and Abigail, the blood all over their bodies showed they had been injured, but somehow, it had healed.As to how they had done it, he had no idea about that and could only stare at Zora waiting for answers."Old man, you don't have to worry, there's nothing wrong with your grandson," Zora chuckled, giving Kai and Abigail to the maids who were waiting."Just place them on the bed and let them rest well, once they recovered their lost energy, they would wake up," Zora instructed and they nodded.Taking Kai and Abigail, the Maids hurriedly walked off. After all, this was the young master, though they didn't know what was happening, they didn't dare defy the orders.Besides, that woman, fro

Chapter: 413:Don't Know "System, is there any skill to mask my spiritual perception so those old monsters won't be able to pinpoint my location?" Eric muttered under his breath asking the System."Skill would cost the host five million points to purchase, does the host want to continue?" The System's mechanical voice came, making Eric's face twitch.What the heck was this? Wasn't this just ripping off? He wanted to curse at the System, but feeling Charlotte's angry gaze, he swallowed back all he wanted to say and bought the skill. But this didn't mean he was not going to challenge this dog of a system that was ripping away his hard earned points.Also, there were a lot of things he wanted to ask. Even though he knew he was going to get insulted, he would ask either way, the question had been on his mind for quite a while.Shaking his head and pushing the thoughts away. Eric absorbed the information in his mind and then masked his spiritual perception as the information in his mind had demanded.Closing his

Chapter: 412:I Don't Care, Find Them"So are you just going to sit there and do nothing about it even though you're about to be assassinated?" Charlotte glanced at Eric who was wolfing down his meal. "What do you want me to do?" Eric raised his head, glancing at Charlotte, a smile spread slowly across his lips. "Get up and start searching for them? Or announce my location so they would be able to come faster?" "No, that's not what I meant?" Charlotte shook her head, glaring at Eric. "What I'm trying to say is that aren't you going to take some precautions, at least you know they are coming to kill you, so why don't you do something about it," Charlotte explained, knowing well Eric might misunderstand her again. "Like setting a trap or something." "There's no need for me to set a trap or anything," Eric shook his head, a cruel smile appeared on his face. "Besides, that's one of the reasons I left Orange City and came to Brooklyn." "This way, I would become their sole target. Also, as long as they don't send

(Country Vee)"Is everything ready?" Jacob asked, looking over at Asher who had a serious expression."Yes," Asher nodded, still frowning slightly."What's wrong, why's your face all squeezed up?" Jacob inquired, wondering why Asher was frowning."Do you realize the organization might have sent people to recruit Eric?""I know," Asher sighed, nodding.This was the bitter truth, he couldn't deny it. After requesting the meta humans, the Organization didn't ask many questions and just gave them what they wanted.But only they knew the Truth. The organization must have investigated them with their wide network, it would be a piece of cake for them to find out what had happened.With Eric's tactical knowledge, they were sure to have sent someone to recruit him.And once he joined the organization, they would have no other choice but to swallow all their hatred and keep it in the past.That was a strict rule of the organization. Even if they were sworn enemies who wanted to kill each other

(A Week Later)Veldora"Sir, have you heard of the news?" Jackson reported to Eric who was sprawled on the sofa, doing absolutely nothing.Jasmine on his lap. The little girl giggled as she played with Eric."What news?" Eric asked, looking up to meet Jackson's gaze."PharmaMax Industry has left Veldora, they disbanded and left abruptly," Jackson said, a smug smile spread across his face.He knew the reason they had hurried out of Veldora the way they had done.Eric's plan was so damn effective and they knew they would be in for bigger trouble if they didn't leave immediately. So they had no other choice but to disappear."Wow, I didn't expect them to leave so quietly, I thought they were going to make some splashes," Eric chuckled and resumed playing with Jasmine who was still giggling."Is there anything we need to do sir?" Jackson asked after a while, knowing well there was a chance Eric was not willing to let them go that easily."Nah, there's no need for us to do anything, they'

"But if you're compensating people, you have to do it swiftly, also, you need to listen to their demands, at the same time, you have to carry it out early," Jacob broke the silence, pulling Asher back."Yeah, I know about that," Asher sighed, a glint flashing in his eyes.He knew Eric was most definitely keeping a tab on them. If that was the case, then he would make sure to spark unreasonable demands from those who were affected and that would make him lose even more.Well, Asher was lucky this time Eric didn't monitor the issue. Rather, use was just waiting for the matter to explode and then make it a big deal since Asher was sure you tried to use his influence to cover up everything.This was the only mistake Eric made. Well, if he had known Asher was going to know, he would have made sure to block all channels of news or rather make it a big deal almost immediately."Come in," Asher yelled at the door after a while.It was better to act with immediate effect."Yes sir," The secret

Chapter: 232: Surprise The atmosphere shifted the moment they entered the private chamber where Atlas Blackwood waited, seated calmly on a wide leather chair with one arm resting on the edge of the antique desk before him. His sharp eyes scanned each of them slowly, and then stopped on Kai and Abigail.“You two alright?” Atlas asked, voice even but with a slight edge of concern.Abigail folded her arms, gave Kai a side glance, and then replied sweetly, “I’m fine. Can’t say the same for someone though.”Kai let out a small dry chuckle, scratching the back of his neck, “I’m also fine, Grandpa.”His voice was calm, but there was a bitter tinge to it that made Atlas narrow his eyes slightly but he didn’t push though.Ella stepped forward and greeted politely, her voice soft, eyes respectful, “Morning Grandpa.”Atlas gave her a light nod and smiled at her, but his attention was already drifting toward Zora, who at the moment wasn’t paying anyone the slightest attention. She was walking around the room like it w

Chapter: 231: Love Triangle Kai stirred with a deep, annoyed grunt, his head pounding like someone had stuffed thunder inside it. Every breath felt too loud, every blink too slow, but as his vision sharpened and the heavy blur cleared, he recognized the dark, familiar tones of his own room...the Blackwood estate.He was home.Still groggy, he sat up slowly, bare-chested and sticky from dried sweat and blood. Zora. That damn woman must’ve carried him back. He had no memory of walking. Typical.Dragging himself out of bed, he headed for the bathroom, standing under the hot stream long enough for his mind to catch up with his body. His thoughts were still swirling from everything that had happened, Abigail, the berserk state, Zora’s interference when he wanted to chase Caleb, that power that took over...but the moment his eyes met his reflection, he paused.There was something... different.His eyes glowed just a bit more, his aura steadier than before if not stronger.Shrugging on a fresh black shirt and stepping

Chapter: Chapter 229: Shadows. Kai stood still for a moment, staring at the fading space where Caleb had vanished. His hands were clenched so tight his knuckles cracked, and his jaw trembled with restrained rage. Caleb had run, that idiot ran away!Coward.Kai’s chest rose and fell as he battled the fury that surged inside him, every breath burned. Every heartbeat screamed for blood. And worst of all, he could see the faint distortion in space, the lingering echo of Caleb’s energy.His third eye, glowing faintly above his brows, pulsed once more, revealing a clear path. A precise location, Caleb’s exact hiding spot, laid bare before him like a marked target waiting to be hunted.He didn’t even hesitate. He raised his hand, fingers slicing through the air to tear a hole through reality and met him there and finished what he started. His divine aura swirled around him as the space began to split open...“Let him be,” Zora’s voice came calmly, almost too calm.His body froze mid-step and he turned to her, barely think

Chapter: 228: And He RanThe moment Kai’s third eye opened, the entire world fell quiet, really too quiet. The wind stopped. The ground stilled and the very air trembled, and Caleb… froze. His body locked up, stiff like a puppet with its strings cut, and his eyes widened in pure disbelief as the glowing eye fixated directly on him and it was like being stripped bare.The pressure didn’t just crush him, it exposed him. Every lie he ever told, every mask he ever wore, every secret buried deep in his bones felt dragged out under that gaze. His breaths shortened. He couldn’t look away, couldn’t breathe right or even think.His knees nearly buckled.Zora sat lazily nearby, arms crossed, watching the chaos unfold like she’d been waiting centuries for this exact moment. Her lips curved into a smirk and her voice sliced through the silence.“Aww… What’s with the face?” she teased, cocking her head slightly. “You look like you just realized you're not the main character of this story anymore.”Caleb’s jaw clenched, bu

Chapter: 227: His Rage. The air around them split apart as Kai moved, and in that instant, a suffocating bloodlust rolled off him, heavy and sharp enough to choke anyone with a weaker spine. Zora, who had been lounging comfortably with Abigail in her arms, narrowed her eyes the moment that killing intent flared.Her usual smirk slipped for just a second, her brow furrowing slightly. It wasn’t the raw power that bothered her, it was the madness dripping from it, the unrestrained hunger for destruction that made it clear Kai was no longer fighting as a man but as something older, and dangerous. Still, she didn’t say anything, she simply tilted her head, stroked Abigail’s hair idly, and continued to watch like a queen in her private theater.Caleb, however, wasn’t cowed by that wave of hatred. No, instead he laughed. His own aura spiked violently, his body vibrating with power as he unleashed everything he had, the ground beneath his feet shattering from the surge. For every ounce of Kai’s rage, Caleb countere

Chapter: EPILOGUE. Wow. She was really getting a divorce. "Thank you." She mused, unable to look him straight in the face because she didn't want him to see the tears that clouded her eyes.Damon stood up and went closer to her before he sat down again, "I know I wasn't the best partner to you, I keep secrets but I did everything with your safety in mind Athena but still, I'm sorry and I want you to know that if you give me another chance in your life I'll be a better partner than I was when we faked our marriage." He stated and Athena shot her head up. "Wait, what? What are you talking about?" She asked in shock as she blinked back her tears."I'm not asking you to marry me but I want us to be in a relationship, and get to know each other before we walk down the aisle. If you don't like our relationship then you're free to walk out, I promise I'll not force you." He said and Athena's lip parted but no words came out."Say something, I know it's unlikely and believe me, I'm not asking you out because o

Chapter: Chapter 218."So everything between you guys was faked?" Damon's mother asked in astonishment as Athena finished narrating everything to her. Damon sighed, he wasn't expecting his mother to find out this way. He wasn't even expecting Athena to ask for a divorce in this manner."Yes, Mom, it was all planned, our marriage was just a mere contract. A part of our plan to get me into this house." Damon answered with a sigh. "Wow, this is very surprising, I actually thought there was something deep between you two." Mrs. Hector said and Athena just smiled.She wished what her mother-in-law said was true but everything between her and Damon was a lie and now that everything was over, it was high time they ended everything. It was for the best. "Well, I don't have a say in what you two choose to do because you are all adults but don't you think you both make a compatible couple?" She asked and Damon cocked his brow. Great, here comes another pressure."Don't get me wrong Damon, I know that expression.

Chapter: Chapter 217.THREE WEEKS LATER. (At the Carneys Villa)"Damon, welcome darling, how was the case?" His mother asked as he entered the house, tired and hungry."It was a blast mom, didn't you watch it on TV?" Damon asked as his mother kissed his forehead.That's his mom's little ritual, kissing him on the cheeks or the forehead. He had tried to stop the little tradition because it was weird and for the fact that he was now a Boss but the older woman would have nothing of such, so he was stuck with it. "Welcome Teddy, she didn't watch it on television and she forbids anyone from telling her, she wishes to hear the news from you," Artemis said with a smile and Damon just beamed."Okay, so mom..." Damon began, clearing his throat, "We didn't only win the case, Dad's name is cleared and his company now bears his name, we are cleared Mom, our family name has been vindicated." He added and his mom began to sob and hugged his son. "Gosh! Mom!! Do you always have to cry at the slightest things?" Artemis

Chapter: Chapter 216.(Carneys Villa; same day) "I need an explanation, Damon, I really need an explanation, all this is driving me mad. How could you do that to me, you could have let me know about something, anything." Athena said in frustration as they both decided to retire for the night.Athena just doesn't understand anymore, she knows he doesn't like sharing his plans with anyone and she's not asking him to share any plans with her, all she requested was a brief info about what would happen, that is all she wanted, and nothing more... Nothing more at all. How could he always place her in a tight situation, why can't he just give her a heads-up about what would happen, why?"I'm sorry, I'm sorry alright, I just don't want to mess anything up, I know I should have told you..." "But you didn't! You didn't find it important find fucking tell you. I might not be your real wife but you could have told me because of the fact that I am your friend and I am your fucking partner in this task, don't I hold a

His mother said, breaking into another sob and holding his son tight. "Shhhh, it's okay mom, I'm here now and I'm perfectly fine. Don't worry, everything is fine, please stop crying now, Mom." Damon said and the mother withdrew from the hug, followed by his sister."Mom was so worried about you Teddy, she nearly passed out when she saw you getting bashed up badly by those men and he called that man..." Artemis said pointing at Mr. Carney who was in cuffs, "Evil, he said he's responsible for dad's death and she was hyper when she saw you getting real bashed up, we were so worried, Teddy, despite the fact that Trev told us that you'll be alright, we were still worried."

Chapter: Chapter 214.Damon watched Frank rush around, his in-law staring at everything in astonishment and then yawned before giving out the raw command, "Round them up." Immediately the words left his mouth, and the guards swung into action and began to apprehend Frank, Mr. And Mrs. Carney along with the son-in-law.The chains that were used in chaining him were loosened and he stood up, blood dripping from his body. "What's the meaning of this?" Mr. Carney asked angrily as one of the guards held him firmly. The guards provided a towel and water to Damon and he used it to wipe off his face. When he was done, he was feeling pain all over his body but it was definitely worth it. "Nothing, father-in-law, nothing much, all I did was just play a game, just like you had played with my father, though it was one hell of a painful game, the reward was worth it," Damon said, tearing off his blood-soaked cloth and taking another one provided by one of the guards. "No sir, you can not go into the room... Sir...
