Chapter: 147. A Tougher IntruderMorgana, who had been so engrossed in watching what Asher would do to Leo, didn’t realize someone was approaching from behind Asher. She was supposed to call out, to alert him but before she could, she screamed, “General, watch out!” It was too late. Asher had already sensed the movement behind him. Without turning, he landed a swift back hit on the guard, one the man never saw coming. The dagger the guard had tried to conceal was quickly snatched by Asher, and with frightening precision, Asher drove it straight into the guard’s forehead. The crowd gasped. It was the most gruesome death they'd witnessed. The guard’s eyes widened in shock before he collapsed, flat on his back, the dagger buried deep in his skull. Asher glanced lazily at the fallen man. The moment sent a chill through Leo’s body. The pain in his maimed left hand suddenly felt numb, his entire being froze. He nearly wet himself, staring at the brutal efficiency of the man standing before him. Morgana, who had instinctive

Chapter: 146. We Must RevengeWhat happened next shattered the silence and reality like glass. A sharp, guttural scream tore from Leo’s throat. His voice cracked with agony, echoing across Eden like a siren. All eyes turned toward him. His hand, his left hand was gone. Or rather, most of it. The wrist had been sliced clean through, leaving only a bloodied stump. The severed part of his hand lay on the ground in front of him, fingers still curled as if frozen mid-motion. Everyone froze in shock. Alaric’s eyes darted to the one man responsible, the man he had dismissed, underestimated, mocked. Asher. But Asher didn’t flinch. He didn’t even blink. He stood there, calm and composed, as if nothing had happened. As if Leo wasn’t clutching what was left of his arm and screaming. The crowd began to step back, gasping, tripping over one another as they tried to understand what they had just witnessed. It had happened so fast. Too fast. Alaric reacted instinctively. “Protect the Minister of Health’s son!” he roared. In an i

Chapter: 145. Highest Form Of BetrayalMorgana was still watching him closely, thought it was over. That he had truly chosen silence. But she didn’t understand why! But even in that disappointment, she didn’t lash out. She didn’t challenge him directly, even though every fiber of her being wanted to. Her restraint, though silent, was sharp. Then Alaric’s voice broke through once more, full of casual arrogance. Asher, sensing that Leo was beginning to seethe, perhaps even feeling a twisted sense of peace, tried to shift the mood. In a theatrical tone and a bid to calm Leo , Alaric said, “Let’s ignore these people, shall we? What brought you to Eden this time? Do you need a herb or something? Or is it your usual?” Leo only shrugged, forcing a cool smile as though he wasn’t angry. But his eyes gave him away. He was irritated, either at the old woman or at the desperation of the people around him but he tried to mask it. Alaric clapped dramatically. “Ah! That’s right. Your usual!” he said, laughing. “The bailiff, of course. I

Chapter: 144. A Betrayal?!A silence hung in the air, thick and expectant. The woman still knelt before Leo, her head bowed low. Her words had been earnest — trembling with desperation, weighted with the cries of children, the ache of families suffering in silence. But Leo only stared. His eyes—those cold, unreadable orbs—rested on her like a shadow. Then, slowly, he turned his gaze toward the gathering. Every sick person, every villager with hollow cheeks and weary eyes, watched him with a strange mixture of fear and hope. They all shared, unspoken conclusion: He’s the son of the Minister of Health. He should care. It was a fragile thread of logic to cling to, but when you were dying, any thread would do. The woman’s voice wavered. “Sir, I know… I know Eden may feel we’ve wronged then. But we didn’t mean to. We didn’t mean to anger Eden, please—” Her hands clutched at her chest as she glanced at Alaric. Alaric scoffed openly, twisting his mouth with exaggerated disgust before turning his head away like her pre

Chapter: 143. He Is No Different“Oh my, my.” Someone’s voice —sarcastic and taunting — broke the silence, slicing through the opera-like tension in the air. Asher didn’t turn immediately, but Morgana, the store manager, and the rest of the crowd did. Nobody had realized he had walked up — he must have been watching everything unfold from afar. His vehicle, one of those luxury cars typical of Drakemont nobility, was parked at a distance, but now he stood there with his hands folded behind his back. A young man, flanked by five sharply dressed companions. They weren’t soldiers; no, these were palace guards men — stylish, elite, and unmistakably symbols of influence. When a man was accompanied by palace guards specifically, it meant power and court presence. And definitely, it meant he was not to be trifled with. Those who recognized him immediately whispered among themselves: Leo — the son of the Minister of Health. The store manager, as if Asher hadn’t just spoken to him a moment ago, rushed over to Leo with urgency.

Chapter: 142. Eden Must OpenAsher had earlier arrived at the gates of Eden, and he couldn’t believe what he was seeing. People—frail, sick, weak—huddled together in desperation. Some held loved ones in their arms, their bodies gaunt and failing. He had witnessed the savage beating inflicted on a man moments ago and, in that moment, he didn’t blame Morgana for acting on impulse without waiting for his command. He knew Morgana well enough; scenes like this triggered her fiercely protective side. So he didn’t stop her. Now, as he stood there, watching the store manager who had ordered such cruelty, Asher suppressed the lingering pain throbbing in his head. The poison still coursed through his body, but he forced himself to act as though it didn’t exist. The bandage wrapped around his head was a constant reminder; the physician had suggested it for protection, though Asher had insisted it wasn’t necessary. Asher stood firm despite the weakness creeping into his limbs. He hoped the store manager would not test his li

Chapter: Chapter 169. The Awaited Reunion"In five minutes, some people will come over to your place. Old friends of mine. I might call them," Damian said as he paced majestically in his study, feeling extremely proud of himself."You might be wondering what friends I have…" Damian paused, as if expecting a response."Or maybe you already know them?" Damian asked with a raised brow."The Tigers," Damian said in a grim tone. "They've been all over the city, looking for you, dear uncle," he said, folding his arms."You…" Valentine tried to steady his shaky hands as beads of sweat formed on his forehead."Don't," Damian interrupted. "It's just five minutes," he said again. "Are you sure you want to waste your precious time battling words with me, or is saving your life more important?""How would you know who The Tigers are? You bastard!" Valentine exclaimed."Hmmm… let me think. I did a small background research on you in the past, which didn't give me much result. But then, I do have some friends in the underworld, uncle," Dam

Chapter: Chapter 168. Deadly Outcome“Who is there?” Came Valentine’s harsh voice as Leonardo felt his feet freeze to the ground while the other man approached. For some reason, he couldn’t move, shocked by what was going on and the fact that he had been played.As the door flung open to reveal Valentine's harsh gaze, Leonardo swallowed, feeling completely dumb as the other man stared at him for a few seconds.“Leonardo,” he started with a smile, like the psychopath he was.“Have you been eavesdropping?” Valentine asked as he approached, his right hand behind his back as if hiding something. Leonardo was stunned for a second, but his survival instinct kicked in instantly.At this point, Valentine was very dangerous, and getting out of this house should be his main priority.“What did you hear?” Valentine asked, cutting into Leonardo’s thoughts, who forced a smile.“You are mistaken, Valentine,” Leonardo began, shaking his head.“I came here to talk,” he said again as both men's gazes remained intent on each other.“You a

Chapter: Chapter 167. Not Mere Talks“Just talks.” He muttered under his breath after a moment of silence, that’s all you can do.“I heard you took care of Ravenna, I must commend you however you did it.” He said again. “She is not a threat to me any longer. So just step down and let me have the position.”“You don’t understand.” Damian approached him. Valentine is trying to get the position for himself.” He said and started to shake his head. “Not you brother. And the moment you continue to stay with him, I won’t be able to do anything. Like I said, he will use you….”“Bullshit!” He turned away and headed to towards the door.“Leo…..”Damian made to say again but he had started walking away, this time with determined strides and out he went of the room.“Young master.” Roberto called after few seconds passed with Damian staring blankly at the door following Leonardo’s exit as if looking for something desperately.Damian turned away from the door. “I have a bad feeling about all this.” He said calmly.“Thank God you came

Chapter: Chapter 166. Who Is The Chairman The chauffeur opened the door as Damian walked swiftly in front of the huge building, that stood towering over most the buildings in that area.The Santoro headquarter building was one of biggest in the city.Damian did the button on his jacket as he walked through the exit with the security bowing down for him.His hands tucked in his pocket, he made his way through the different part of the building and straight to the boardroom confidently. He was literally unstoppable now.Immediately Elena caugh sight of him coming out of the elevator, she rushed towards him with a scared deamenor.“Young master…,”she said breathlessly as if she has been running.“Are they all in?” He asked with a slight frown.“Yeah.

They don’t care young master.” She said as rage filled Damian as he made his way past her with her trailing behind him.“Do you have a plan?” She asked as he stopped on his track, memories of his conversation with Ma

Chapter: Chapter 165. The Bloody BossAs the laughing subsided, she stared at Amiri who just watched her.“Fuck you Amiri!” She spat out as Amiri just watched her. Her laughing was out of spite.It didn’t take another second when the sound of the police siren filled the whole place as Ravenna made to turn around to look back, but stopped, probably because of her pride.She turned to look at Amiri, her eyes bloodshot with rage while Amiri stared at her lazily.“You shouldn’t be outside here, Ravenna. Living with normal people.” Amiri said as the sound of the policemen steps coming towards them increased to show how close they were.“You are dangerous to humanity.” Amiri completed as Ravenna scoffed. “And you call yourself a saint by doing this one thing?” She asked with an angry look.“You are bloody criminal, you bastard!” She shrieked angrily as the police finally got to them.“I am inspector Morales and you are under arrest for the…..”The words trailed off in Ravenna’s head as she stared angrily at Amiri, and as her ey

Chapter: Chapter 164. Bye Ravenna Amiri wasn’t sure of what to say. He just stared blankly at her.“What did you do to Paulo?” He could only manage to ask as Ravenna gave him a scrutinizing look as if that would determine if she would tell him anything or not.“You should ask what I would do to him if you don’t comply to my commands right now.” She said as Amiri’s fist clenched.“You still look as if I am lying to you.” She said with a pout. “You still think I don’t have Amiri, ugh?” She raised a brow and tuttered.“Foolish.” She snorted. “Swerville Day school. Finish his lessons by 12 noon. Has a standby driver that takes him home to his mama.” She said to spite Amiri the more as if the other man hasn’t gotten the point, the predicament he was into.“What if I switched the driver with my people.” Her lips tugged in a sinister smile as Amiri felt a bead of sweat on his forehead.She chuckled and took off his shades and put it on. “Now I can see the darkness hidden inside of you Amiri.” She murmured almost in a whisper
