Alyana’s words struck Franco like the deepest shock he had ever felt. The moment they left her mouth, his expression froze, and he stood there, stunned to his core.To begin with, Franco hadn’t invited Alyana to his welcome party. Even at this moment, the last thing he had expected to hear was that she was coming here — to his welcome party.If he wasn’t mistaken, Alyana had once told him she was pregnant with his child. Although he found it hard to believe at the time, he had still been deeply unsettled by the way she declared that she wouldn’t let him see his own child. And now, what was this he was hearing?That the little boy should meet his father?Franco let out a low chuckle.Before reacting further, he carefully examined the surroundings. From the looks on the guests’ faces, everyone was clearly surprised. Soft whispers had already begun to spread across the hall.“The Ruffian Lord has a son out of wedlock?” someone gasped.Another voice quickly followed, thick with disbelief.

As they all glared at Tyler, their minds swirled with countless unanswered questions.Olga’s lips refused to close. She kept muttering under her breath, her voice trembling with confusion.“What’s going on? What… what is all this?”Aria was just as stunned as the others. Her eyes widened, and she found herself silently questioning what she was seeing.“How did Tyler manage to get a card as mighty as this?” she wondered, her heart pounding.What shocked them the most was the identity attached to the A+ List Card.It was not just powerful — it was a title. A status. A symbol that had been possessed by only one person in the entire world.Aria’s grandfather.But he was dead.Which meant there should only be one person in existence who had the right to hold that card now — the one representing him in the military cadre. And that person was, of course, the new General of Team Elite.However, as things stood, no one had officially taken that position yet. The identity of the new General had

Olga looked back—and to her deepest shock, it was Aria who had spoken.She couldn’t comprehend it.Aria was defending Tyler again? After everything that had happened?Unbelievable.Even Brantley was stunned.He licked the blood at the corner of his lips and clenched his fists tightly. When he had seen Olga arrive earlier, he had been certain she would stand by him—whether Tyler was telling the truth or not.But Aria standing beside Tyler?That was something he had never seen coming.And now that Aria was finally acting with a clear conscience, what came next? Would she throw him behind bars?Brantley shook his head slowly.He couldn’t allow Tyler’s name to be cleared. He couldn’t let his own identity walk away without a stain.He had to lie.One way or another.Anger blazed across his face as he stepped forward, deliberately faking weakness as he spoke.“Look at me, Aria,” Brantley said, his voice trembling as he lifted his hands weakly. “Do I look like a rapist? Do I look like someon

Tyler froze when he saw them—Olga, Chloe, Henry, and Melanie standing there.Shock flickered across his face. He hadn’t known they were present. Not even for a second.As his gaze swept over them, Olga’s eyes suddenly locked onto the figure crumpled on the floor.“Aria!”She rushed forward immediately, fake tears already shimmering in her eyes. Dropping to Aria’s side, she grabbed her arm and helped drag her upright, all while twisting her head to glare at Tyler.“What on earth have you done to my daughter, Aria?” Olga screamed, her voice trembling with practiced outrage. “I knew you were a ruthless animal from the very first day I met you—and today, you’ve proven you’re exactly the devil I thought you were!”Tyler opened his mouth, but Olga didn’t give him the chance.“You were in jail, weren’t you?” she continued, her voice rising as she pointed a trembling finger at him. “Now tell me—what have you come back here to do, huh? Officers!” She turned sharply toward the police. “Arrest t

Tyler didn’t seem to care about the question Aria had asked him. He gently brushed the strands of hair away from her eyes and nodded, his expression calm and reassuring.“Yes, Aria. I’m here,” he said softly, warming her cold hands between his palms. “Don’t worry. I’m already here, and I know for sure that nothing is going to harm you.”As he spoke, he continued smoothing her hair and rubbing her hands to keep her warm, his attention completely fixed on her.Behind him, Brantley had already risen from where he had been thrown. Quietly, he picked up the iron rod lying beside him and began to creep forward, his steps slow and careful.Tyler didn’t notice.He was still smiling at Aria, gently massaging her hand, focused only on comforting her.Within seconds, Brantley was right behind him. He lifted the iron high, preparing to strike Tyler from the back.But just as Brantley was about to bring it down, Tyler suddenly reached back and caught the iron firmly with one hand, not even turning

Brantley’s grip on Aria tightened as he sneered at her. “Why are you pleading for me to let go of you? Are you that scared of me, Aria?” His eyes darkened with arrogance, as if he owned her. “I’m a changed man now. I can be better than whoever you’re married to. Just give me one chance—one yes—and I’ll take you anywhere in the world. We’ll make love again, and I promise, I’ll make sure I cum early so you won’t be in so much pain!”He leaned closer to her, his breath hot and vile, as he pinned her harder against the wall. His lips brushed against her skin, sending a sickening shiver down her spine. “I missed you, baby,” he whispered, his voice low and dangerous. “I missed the moments we had together. I missed your lips on my—”Before he could finish, Aria’s hand flew up, slapping him across the face with a sickening crack. His words died in his throat, the sting of her slap leaving him momentarily stunned.Her breath came out in sharp, ragged breaths as she brushed her hair back wit

Elena froze, shocked at her mother’s sudden outburst. Her chest heaved; she could barely catch her breath, desperate to break free from Rita’s tight grip.“What’s gotten into you, Mother?” Elena gasped, struggling against her mother’s hold.Rita’s eyes widened, her tone laced with drama. “What are you saying, Lena? Don’t you understand that walls have ears? What you just said… it could get you arrested—or worse. Especially now that Franco doesn’t love you anymore!”Elena recoiled, her voice trembling. “But what did I say wrong? I was only stating my own opinion—that Franco could be the father of the child. It’s nothing but my own line!”Rita tightened her grip briefly, her face pale with urgency. “And that opinion of yours can get you into serious trouble!” she said sharply. “Franco is a highly influential figure now. He can do anything, however he wants. Do you really think he’ll let something like this slide when you’re making such a huge allegation without any evidence?”Elena’s ha

Of course, Franco didn’t know how to respond to Muna’s question.No matter how he felt about it, he had no choice but to do as she instructed.“OKAY! Tomorrow then!” he finally said, his voice firm, though his mind was still swirling with uncertainty.The car drove straight to the Scott mansion. As Franco sat silently, thinking about how to handle the upcoming meeting with Oscar and his mother, Alyana, Elena’s conscience gnawed at her relentlessly.Humiliation had struck her in its purest form that day, leaving a bitter taste she couldn’t ignore. Yet, there were more pressing matters she had to consider, matters her mother insisted she shouldn’t dwell on.Even so, Elena’s thoughts kept returning to that other part—the part her mother wanted her to ignore, the part that refused to stay buried.What really consumed them was the fact that they had been humiliated today.The moment they arrived home, Rita threw her bag onto the couch and ran her hands through her hair in frustration.“The

Immediately after Alyana left, Franco didn’t waste a second before turning to leave as well.As he walked out, Muna hurried after him while the crowd pressed forward, their voices rising in desperate pleas.“My blood! Bless me!”“Place your hands on me, My Lord!”“My Lord, please, lay your hand on me!”Some stretched their hands as far as they could, trying to touch even the edge of his clothes, believing their faith alone would bring them blessings or lengthen their lives. Ironically, the very people who had once mocked Franco were now the same ones struggling the hardest to reach him.Franco remained composed, his expression steady, though a quiet annoyance flickered beneath the surface.When he reached his car, he paused and waited for Muna to catch up before driving off. The moment she stepped inside, he reached out and gently held her hand.“I am sorry, Muna,” Franco said softly, his voice low with sincerity. “I am so sorry.”Muna blinked, clearly surprised. She let out a small s

Alyana slowly squatted beside her son and held his shoulders gently.“Listen to me, my dear,” she said softly, brushing his hair back. “Your papa loves you, I know that. He only left us to go and start another family. But the new papa you keep asking to meet… he is not your papa. He can’t be your—”Before she could finish her sentence, Oscar suddenly pulled away from her and ran straight to Franco.He wrapped his small arms tightly around Franco’s waist.“Papa!” Oscar cried, clinging to him. “Please be my papa! I want you to be my papa!”A wave of shock swept through the hall.Everyone stood frozen, their eyes fixed on the scene. They were completely baffled.What was going to happen next? What would Franco do? And where had all this drama come from?Franco himself stood speechless, staring down at the boy holding onto him.At that moment, Muna’s grandmother stepped forward. Her face was far from friendly.The displeasure in her expression was obvious. She was clearly unhappy with eve

Alyana’s words struck Franco like the deepest shock he had ever felt. The moment they left her mouth, his expression froze, and he stood there, stunned to his core. To begin with, Franco hadn’t invited Alyana to his welcome party. Even at this moment, the last thing he had expected to hear was that she was coming here — to his welcome party.

Another voice quickly followed, thick with dis

After hearing everything Elena said, Franco smirked.He already knew where the conversation was heading. Even a fool could tell that Elena was trying to draw sympathy from the crowd.The moment he noticed the cameras and phones pointed in their direction, it became even clearer. Everything happening was being broadcast live online. To Elena, this was the perfect stage — a chance to gain his attention while making herself look like the victim.And because the world was watching, people would naturally lean toward her side. If he turned and walked away without listening, the public would immediately paint him as the heartless one.Franco understood that much.That was why he stayed where he was.Protecting his reputation was reason enough to remain standing there, facing Elena, a faint smile resting on his lips as he prepared for whatever she would say next.“Alright then,” Franco said, his smirk deepening slightly. “You have my attention, Miss Froston. So, what is the second gift you w

Rico and Fred's eyes hit together. Fred gave him that glare which he knew the meaning of. He knew that Fred wasn't at fault. Noticing how Rico stared at Fred, Claire immediately "Really? Are the glances necessary?" Rico sighed before saying "Claire, believe me, this..." "Cut to the chase, Rico! I only want to hear the truth and nothing more" Claire cut off his utterance and he added "At least, give me the chance to explain myself inside the house, not here" Rico said and Claire moved out for his passage. After thinking about how he would make everything clear to Claire, Rico sighed again. "Come on, Rico. We're in this together. We accepted you into our home not only to live with us but to ensure that we live in loyalty..." Claire said and added "Please, Rico, tell us how the orchester crystal got into your nerve" It was a very hard decision to make but Rico had no choice but to spill out the beans. "It is true that I have the crystal in my brain. The crystal has been given

Rico dashed off to Auguste's mansion. Auguste and Beatrice weren't around. Rico had made up his mind to destroy Auguste and bring everything to an end. When he got to Auguste's compound. He teleported himself to his lab. There, he saw all of the systems that he used in producing Zombies. He saw the one that showcased the total number of infected people in the world.He touched the system and said"How evil people can be! I can't believe that Auguste has this evil intention. He should thank his stars that he isn't home, otherwise, he might be in the land of the dead with his accomplices!"He gazed up and visualized everything in the lab. He further walked up to the other labs. There, he saw all manner of machines. He raised a small metallic machine that had the structure of a microscope. He gazed at it thoroughly before wondering to himself"For real? How did they invent all these?""This targets the number of people in the world. This is where they store all the information about ind

Rico met with Fred in haste. It seemed as though he took his Promise likely. Auguste and his team really have to pay. "Fred, I want you to link my thoughts to reality!""But why now, Rico? You know very well that it's very hard to do that at the moment. If I may ask, why do you want to link your thoughts to reality?"Fred inquired and Rico grabbed his Amazon suitcase. His face wasn't friendly, looking so strict."Auguste and his team have done enough, it is time to teach them a very big lesson!"Fred nodded and asked him to sit down. His system was previously connected to the Amazon system making it easier for Fred to carry out his mission successfully. He brought a systematical ball which was small in size and magnetic. He placed it on Rico's head to connect his thoughts to reality.The ball connected to his Amazon system successfully. He pressed a red button and Rico's head started vibrating. His head twitched profusely and unstoppably."Focus on your target, Rico. Bring them to r

The circa has changed a lot. The internal part now glows in orange. "What am I seeing? This is no longer a building, are we in another planet?"Fred inquired, shocked. The internal part of the Circa was covered with a magic orb. "Fred, I think the crystal did a great job. The circa is even more developed, bur how do we get in?"Rico inquired because the orb blocked their entrance which covered the internal part of the circa. The magic orb was a small shimmering ball which was similar to a tennis ball but unlike a tennis ball, the orb was transparent and glowed.From the external view, you can't see what us happening inside but from the internsl part of the circa, you can see everything that is happening outside.The magic orb was shimmering in orange as Rico and Fred figures a way to get inside. Rico had a plan which he thinks might be successful. He was developed with powers, so there is a possibility that once he touched the glowing orb, it might open.Rico closed his eyes and too

Rico opened his eyes immediately and it glowed. He was aware of the danger that was about to befall him. This mission will be very hard but Rico has to fulfill his calling. It was the middle of the night. He walked to the vicinity where he systematically changed into Rico. He dashed off to save the night! A woman was still waiting for her drunkard husband to return. She was yawning and lost in sleep but was conscious at the same time.Immediately, the floor started shaking. This jolted her to reality. She stood up to check why the ground Shaked.Immediately, someone grabbed her legs from below. She screamed and attempted to run away but the person also stretched forth his other hand and came out with so much sand coming out from his body.It was a zombie! She looked around and saw a flower vase. She hit the zombie and ran straight to her daughter's room to ensure her safety. There was worse!Zombies surrounded her daughter! She screamed and the zombies diverted their attention to her

Rico wouldn't leave without saving anyone in danger. Nigeria was in grave danger, not Nigerians but their president. Rico couldn't ignore the visions of the aged man being eaten by Zombies. He flashed into the giant of Africa for a rescue. To the province of Mr President, the Zombies were even his guards.Mr. President was having a peaceful sleep. He'd transferred his wife and children to another country because of the outbreak while staying back to protect his country.Rico sneaked inside Mr. President's house and his hand started glowing. His nerves were systematically active. His hand glowed brighter pointing him to where the Zombies were. He speedily moved to Mr. President's room.A zombie was about to attack him when Rico stretched his hand and pulled him away. Another approached him but he used massive air to blow him off to hit the wall. Mr. President was wowed! Rico moved to him"Are you okay Sir?""Of course I am"The president responded while still gazing at Rico. Now, he r

“Zo…zo…Zora?” Oliver's lips couldn't even complete the words!Desmond Leo on the other hand was shocked. He thought he killed Zora but No! That wasn't the case! Zora survived the death.She remembered regaining consciousness and making some plans with the doctor. The doctor was to give her an ANESTHESIA which would make her seem dead and after her burial concluded, she was dug out.Her new goal was to make Desmond Leo suffer for all the pain he made her and Oliver pass through. So, she thought of a way to make Leo's world miserable and then remembered his girlfriend, Zoey who is abroad.Her findings reveal that she has the same body style and posture as Zoey so she planned with her doctor and they got Zoey's face in a mask form on the day Zoey arrived in H country, she was abducted and Zora took her position.“It was a nice plan, wasn't it?” Zora asked, pulling out a cute smile on her face. Oliver still can't believe that Zora is alive. Is he dreaming or what?“And together with my

CHAPTER 190: SEMI FINALESeeing Zoey standing there in determination, Desmond Leo was happy!He got up instantly and walked to her back.“I'm glad you came here, Hun!” He kissed her and Zoey smiled.“You think that you can get me killed so easily, huh?” Leo directed to Oliver. Do you think that you can destroy me or perhaps take me away from the surface of this earth? Never!”“Leo is right, Oliver!” Zoey supported her boyfriend, her furious eyes fixed on Oliver! “Why would you dare to shoot my soon-to-be husband? Don't you know that there are repercussions for every of your crime? And the crime of shooting him is DEATH!”“So what is the price of him gunning down my grandfather? Why would you see the truth but still cover up the truth?” Oliver asked, aiming at coercing Zoey to turn away from Desmond Leo.“He killed my grandpa. He abducted those innocent children. He killed a lot of people. He committed a lot of crime and you are still supporting him?”Desmond Leo grabbed Oliver's colla

CHAPTER 189:“Where are you going, Oliver? Please, Come back, Oliver. The police will settle this….” Miranda was speaking to herself at this moment because Oliver was more determined than ever before!He hopped into his car and drove off, following the route Desmond Leo took.As Leo drove so fast, Oliver followed him at a higher speed!Desmond Leo realized that Oliver was following him and smiled. “I think he wants to die! I will make him suffer to the end of the day!”He drove speedily and Oliver continued chasing him. In the end, Desmond Leo halted his car and came down from it, standing before Oliver's car!“Come on, Oliver! Let's finish this battle we started Eighteen years ago!” He pronounced, spreading his hands as if he wanted to ascend to heaven!Oliver stopped his car right before Desmond Leo and stepped down.“Why did you kill Grandpa?” Oliver asked with a low tone. “He didn't do anything to you! He loved you like a father even when he knew that you were not a true member

“..... I hereby announce Desmond Leo as the failed opponent to Oliver Smith! And with that same power vested in me as the Head of this family, I hereby declare Oliver Smith as the New Head of the T family!” Charlie Thale concluded and Desmond Leo's ego dropped instantly.Did he hear that correctly? Did CHARLIE THALE just mention Oliver as the new Head of T family?“NEVER!”Desmond Leo screamed instantly, pulling the attention of all the guests who were rejoicing on Oliver's behalf.“I will never be alive and watch Oliver become the Head of the T family! Never! This is cheating and I know that you all conspired against me because nobody loves me in this family! Nobody loves me!” “You are the person who doesn't love yourself, Leo!” Oliver spoke up immediately. “You brought all these upon yourself by making everyone your enemy. Even those that love you, you chased them all away and made yourself the villain. Grandpa loves you, I love you, we all love you!” “That's a big LIE!” Desmond L

CHAPTER 187:Immediately Desmond Leo sighted Oliver, his phone beeped. He checked it and saw it was a text from Darius.“Sorry to tell you this, Sir Leo, but Oliver managed to leave the scene. He didn't do this alone, your private G-Wagon took him off!”Desmond Leo was so surprised especially as Oliver walked on the aisle and approached them.“I apologize for being late! However, my car was attacked and I lost the power to make a call! Please accept my apologies!”Oliver declared, staring at Desmond Leo with a cute smile.Oh My God, Oliver is so cute!As Oliver said this, Charlie Thale wouldn't stop smiling. The crowd was already cheering.“You may proceed to your stand, Oliver Smith!” Charlie Thale said and Oliver bowed before walking out.He stood beside Desmond and still smiled at him.One thing is to attack someone but another thing is to watch the person you attacked escaping from you through your help!That was Oliver's case! When he was searching for a network, a white G-Wagon
