Who’s behind this? Who hates us this much?”Malvin lowered his head slowly.His voice dropped into a grave whisper.“Adrian.”Sophia’s entire body stiffened.Elena gasped.Sarah’s eyes widened.“Adrian?” Sarah repeated, almost choking on the name.Malvin nodded quickly. “I heard the regulators whispering his name. They said he... he pulled strings. He used his new political connections."Sophia’s face contorted with shock and then pain.Then a rage so deep it shook her shoulders.“He… he wants us to beg him,” she whispered.Malvin nodded softly. “Yes… Exactly.”Sarah trembled violently. “That bastard! Why won't leave us alone?”“He wants revenge,” Sophia spat through clenched teeth.Sarah wiped her eyes, voice trembli

Chapter: CHAPTER 308The Aldridge mansion woke to chaos.Dozens of black SUVs tore through the front gates with a violence that shook the ground. Tires screeched across the marble driveway. Uniformed officers in dark tactical gear spilled out like a swarm of shadows, rifles slung over their chests, bulletproof vests stamped with a cold, metallic emblem:F.C.R. – Federal Commission of Regulation.Sarah rushed out first, still in her morning robe, hair slightly messy, eyes wide.“What is the meaning of this—?!”She didn’t even finish her sentence.The commanding officer raised a gloved hand.“Federal investigation. Step aside.”Sophia stormed out next, barefoot, fury blazing in her eyes. “Who the hell are you people?”The lead officer stepped forward, voice flat. “Gerald Aldridge—by Order 17A of the International Financial Crimes Mandate—you are under arrest for:Treasonous financial dealingsSanction evasionFunding a shell corporation linked to criminalsAnd illegal siphoning of federal credits.Sophia’s

Loyal. Brave. We won’t forget it.”Malvin smiled gently, lowering his gaze like a humble man swallowing praise.Inside, he was laughing.They trusted him. More than anyone.More than Adrian.Halfway through dinner, Malvin raised two fingers politely.“Excuse me,” he said with a soft smile. “I need to use the restroom.”Sarah nodded kindly.“Second door on the right, dear.”“Yes, thank you.”He stood and walked out of the dining room.The moment he turned the first corner, his expression snapped cold.He moved through the hallway like a shadow.Gerald’s study was at the end of the hall.Malvin’s fingertips twitched.The silver hacking chip Lucien gave him felt heavy in his pocket.He reached the door…Gently turned the knob…It opened without a sound.The stud

Chapter: CHAPTER 306Lucien studied him for a long moment. Then a wicked, approving smile curved across his mouth. “Good,” Lucien said. “Then it’s time.” He placed his whiskey glass down and motioned for Malvin to follow him to a long, dark wooden table where blueprints and documents were laid out. Lucien tapped a folder with one finger. “Your part is simple,” Lucien said. “But very crucial.” Malvin leaned forward. Lucien opened the folder. Inside were digital schematics and printed instructions that looked disturbingly precise. “You will plant these,” Lucien said, sliding several sheets toward him. “Encrypted communications. Fabricated contracts. Banking trails. All designed to point to Gerald Aldridge.” Malvin lifted a page. His eyes widened. “These look… incredibly real.” Lucien smirked. “They are. Even the Guild’s internal forensics team won’t tell the difference.” He began walking slowly around the table, his voice echoing in the high-ceilinged chamber. “You will place them on Gerald A

Chapter: CHAPTER 305The guards dragged Malvin toward the courtyard.Malvin kicked and twisted, panic exploding through him.“WAIT! WAIT—HE’S IMPRISONED!” he shouted, voice cracking. “HE’S IMPRISONED... NOT FREE!”The words ripped out of him so loudly that even the dogs paused.The guards froze mid-step.Lucien’s head turned sharply from the throne.“What?” he said, voice dangerously calm.Malvin stumbled forward as the guards loosened their grips. His chest heaved. “Zane,” he gasped. “He’s not dead... but he’s locked up. Caged like an animal.”The guards exchanged confused looks.Lucien lifted one finger and the guards instantly released Malvin.He dropped to his knees, coughing, struggling to catch his breath.Lucien’s gaze narrowed. “Speak.”Malvin wiped his mouth with the back of his trembling hand. “He… he’s useless now. Completely crippled. The talisman… it stripped everything from him. Strength, speed... everything.”He looked up with wild, desperate eyes. “He’s lying on the floor like a dying dog.

"You're in the middle of nowhere, no one will ever find you.”Zane glared up weakly, his breathing unsteady.Malvin leaned in even closer.“You’re doomed,” he whispered.“Just like your sister.”Zane’s eyes widened and Malvin could see real fear in them.Malvin stood over him, smiling, while Zane writhed helplessly on the floor like a powerless, broken creature.Malvin pulled out his phone with trembling fingers.Zane lay inside the cage, half-conscious, eyes dazed, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. His once-terrifying aura was gone.Malvin lifted the phone and took a picture.The flash bounced off Zane’s pale, battered skin, catching the helplessness in his eyes.Malvin smiled.Lucein would have no other choice but to partner with him now.He pocketed the phone, turned, and walked out of the cabin, locking the heavy door behind him.The metallic clang echoed through the woods.Zane weakly lifted his head for a moment.Then he collapsed aga

The voice on the other end of the line was cold and merciless, leaving no room for negotiation or escape.James then turned off the speaker of the phone so that he could not hear what they were discussing."Amelia, we need to stay calm," James said, his voice steady despite the fear gnawing at his insides. "We have to do exactly as they say if we want to get out of this alive."Amelia nodded,

They had heard rumors of his invincibility, but witnessing it firsthand sent chills down their spines."You still have one last chance to surrender," James declared, his tone final. "Or face the consequences."But the gang members, fueled by arrogance and greed, refused to yield.

Then came the surge which felt like electricity, the force that seemed to awaken every cell in him. Power unlike anything he had ever felt began to course through his veins. It wasn’t just adrenaline; it was something supernatural. Nathan’s fingers twitched, curling into the dirt beneath him. Despite his wounds he felt zero pain. The darkened sky rumbled, thunder cracked, and the atmosphere was heavy as if the heavens themselves were about to witness what was about to happen. Nathan opened his eyes. They gleamed with an intensity they hadn’t held beforebefore, he staggered to his feet, and his fingers curled into a fist.

Sebastian, however, remained unmoved, he stood over Nathan with a grin on his bloodied face. "You really do not know when to quit, do you?" Sebastian taunted him. Nathan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. "I will never quit," he said in a hoarse voice. "Not until I’ve destroyed you."
