Chapter: Chapter 103"Your wife? That woman is my property, my wife." "Look man, I don't know what century you are from but women are no longer properties and she is mine. You come near her and I'll kill her and then kill you." Jeremy's words were vicious. The big man's eyes widened in shock. "Are you insane?" He asked. "I'm more than insane. Catherine belongs to me and will only belong to me.* Catherine was behind Jeremy shivering in fear now. "Fine, you can have her but watch your back ... this isn't over." The big man warned and turned around, knowing he wouldn't be able to win this battle in such a public place. His only option was to leave and bid his time. "Thank you so much," Catherine said to Jeremy as soon as the man left. Jermey glared at her. "Keep your thanks to yourself and stay away from me." He spat and began to walk towards the boarding terminal. His phone rang before he could g

Chapter: Chapter 102Jeremy got home that night but his mother was already asleep which was exactly what he hoped for. He wasn't sure he had it in him to talk to her about all that happened. He knew how she would take it and didn't want to stress her out. He already knew what to tell her about the organization. A simple "It's not something I'm interested in" would suffice. As soon as he got to his room, he jumped into the shower. The words of Collins echoed in his ears. “You can't say no to us. You have ties with us.” He was in a pickle because he knew they weren't going to let him go easily and would probably continue to send him letters. He had to figure out a way to get them off his back and the trip he was about to take tomorrow was going to be the start of it. After showering, he dressed up and fell asleep. Jeremy woke up to the sound of his alarm clock and his phone ringing at the same time. He dismissed the

Chapter: Chapter 101“Nice to meet you,” Jeremy extended his hands for a handshake but instead of a handshake, Collins moved in for a hug. Jeremy stiffened for a millisecond the hug lasted and frowned when the man smiled wide. “So, how are you finding the party, Jeremy?” The man asked, leading Jeremy towards the various takes where different men played games. A few women were also in attendance and they were dressed normally. Jeremy could not help wondering if all of the people out there were new members like he was or maybe they were just floor members and not executives. The man showing him around was an older man with a pretty face and huge glasses. He looked more like a nerd than a billionaire. Jeremy noticed a lot of other men that he recognized in a casino looking parry. Some of them waved at him and he waved back. He was still a bit uneasy the deeper they went into the room. “So, what do you think?” He aske

Chapter: Chapter 100Jeremy stood in front of the mirror as he got ready for the party he'd been invited to. It had been two days since the letter arrived and it had come in a peculiar way.. It had been inside a small shaped coffin with roses decorating it. He had a feeling it had something to do with the theme of the party. ‘The dead’ was the theme and it confused Jeremy why they had chosen something so dark and controversial but then again, they sounded more like a cult than a club so he wasn't surprised. “Are you ready to go sir?” Amy barged in. Jeremy turned to look at her his secretary and nodded. “Yes, I think so. How do I look?* I asked. “Great… Oh your tie,” She pointed. “It's a little crooked.” She said, Jeremy tried to rearrange his tie but he only made it worse. “I'll just help you.” She said and made her way towards her boss. She forced him to look her way and the

Chapter: Chapter 99""Boss?" Sophia frowned, a confused look on her face. "Yes, I have been trying to tell you. Jeremy is the head of the Verde's headquarters." Sophia's eyes widened at the words of her husband and a look of horror covered her face. "Wait... I don't understand.' "It's not that hard to understand, my name is Jeremy and I am the head and CEO of Verde. Nice to meet you!" Jeremy said in a mocking tone. Amy smirked, enjoying the look on the old woman's face. She seemed to Frozen in place, trying to figure out what to do and she loved it. "Um, well. Nice to meet you, officially, Jeremy." She extended her hands for a handshake but Jeremy didn't move to take it even though his mother clearly wanted him to. "Yes, nice indeed." Jeremy said sarcastically and turned to Amy. "Let's go," He said and followed Any out of the lobby. "I didn't realize your son was the head of Verde, Rieda, you'v

Chapter: Chapter 98"The car is outside, boss." Amy said as she walked into the living room where Jeremy and his mother sat, talking. Jeremy glanced up at Amy and nodded. "We'll be out in a second, thanks Amy," "Of course, sir." Amy nodded and made her way outside to wait for them. "Come on, mom..we gotta go." Jeremy said to his mother and helped her up. They both found their way out of the house and got into the car. They were on their way to Verde's headquarters. Amy had found out about a few things about Reginald as Jeremy had expected. They'd discovered the fact that Reginald not only had ties with the Verde's company but that he was involved in some shady business that had the potential to drag the name of the Verdes in the mud if word got out and he planned on putting a stop to it as soon as possible. There was no concrete evidence yet but there were a lot of things that didn't seem to ad

Chapter: CHAPTER 250 It's been two years already and still no sign of Viktor. Some people were already beginning to doubt if he was really still alive or maybe he had moved on with his life. But Sylvester was sure Viktor still had some grand plan, he was just taking his time, waiting for everyone to relax their guard. One thing was certain though to Sylvester; whenever he decided to act, they won't be caught unprepared. Their stronghold, rebuilt the previous year, towered like a fortress of living steel, its reinforced walls humming with layered defenses that could withstand anything short of a natural cataclysm. Patrol units glided through the courtyard with organized precision, and new recruits trained with a discipline that reflected the very heart of the clan: resilience and purpose. Yet, for all the clan’s power and polish, Sylvester found his real peace not within the fortified walls but in the quiet space of the life he built with Emily. They had learned to balance their roles, leaders by d

Chapter: CHAPTER 249 No other incident occurred after the reported breach and Sylvester gradually relaxed again, permitting himself to enjoy the peace this time. Finally it was time for Emily to give birth and she successfully delivered a baby boy. Everyone who saw him immediately knew he was going to be a handful. He had Sylvester's hair color and eyes. Sylvester held the small bundle in the crooked part of his arm, smiling at his son. Tears blurred his vision but he blinked them away. He had never been this happy before. Time flew by and Sylvester returned to the clan. He told Emily about it and she readily agreed, stating she was already bored with an ordinary life and was considering suggesting going back. When they arrived at the compound two months after Emily's delivery, they couldn't help but stare openly in awe at how transformed it was. Sylvester walked by slowly, his eyes taking everything in. The once-battered front gates glowed with reinforced steel, the clan's insignia embedded

Chapter: CHAPTER 248 Two weeks at the resort bled past in bliss. Emily loved every second of it. Sylvester tried to. Truthfully, his body still reacted to every unfamiliar sound, immediately switching to combat mode of its a sound he didn't recognize but still despite that, he was trying his best to be deliberate in the learning process. Every morning, Emily woke up first, humming some songs she remembered from childhood while she flipped through baby name lists on her tablet. Sylvester would lie beside her, pretending he didn’t hear her whispering to the baby or giggling when the baby kicked at random moments. Other times, she dragged him for long walks on the sand, resting often but determined to stay active. It was complete transformation from the corporate woman he knew her as to a carefree dedicated wife and soon to be mother. But despite the peace, something flickered under Sylvester’s skin.. a subtle pull, like an invisible tether back to the clan. He didn’t mention it, not wanting to ruin an

Chapter: CHAPTER 247 The first morning at the resort felt like waking into a different universe entirely. Soft sunlight filtered through the curtains, painting warm streaks across the walls of the room. For a moment after waking, Sylvester didn’t move, preferring to simply lay there, listening to Emily’s gentle breathing beside him and the distant hum of waves rolling onto the shore. Ah… so this is what peace truly feels like? It was a sensation alien to him. Emily stirred after a few minutes, stretching lightly with a low sigh. Her hand instinctively landed on her belly, and she smiled when she felt the baby kick happily in response to her touch. “You’re awake,” Sylvester murmured, turning his head to look at her. “Barely,” she said with satisfied smile, voice thick with sleep. “Did you sleep any?” “A little.” He admitted. “More than I expected actually.” He didn’t tell her that he had woken up twice, expecting danger, expecting the sharp press of reality to hit him. And each time he’d fo

Chapter: CHAPTER 246 The first few months after the government ceremonies moved like a slow, unfamiliar breeze through the clan. Everything was calmer, almost unnervingly too calm considering what the clan had gone through. No sudden alarms. No explosions rocking the earth. No orders shouted through smoke. It was the first time in months that Sylvester woke up without the taste of battle lingering at the back of his throat. But he wasn’t entirely at peace yet. He still had a lot of work to do and Viktor to hunt. Only then would he wholly embrace peace. Thanks to the news of their victory against superhuman clones, people were coming in from everywhere with the desire to be members of the clan, including those with the potential to cultivate and the ordinary citizens. Also, the world has officially accepted him as the CEO of Red Dragon and he had fished out those corrupt guards who carried out illegal missions for government officials and handed them over to be punished. Now every platoon leader from

Chapter: CHAPTER 245 Sylvester barely slept that night. The hotel room the government had arranged for him and his team as they arrived later in the day was comfortable… too comfortable, almost offensive in how pristine it felt after what they had just come from. He sat by the window long after Gerald and Otto had gone to their rooms, watching the city lights glitter like nothing had happened. Like lives hadn’t been lost. Like his clan hadn’t bled for a country that didn’t understand what had truly been lurking beneath its own soil. By sunrise, he was already dressed, the adrenaline of unfinished business pushing him forward. The government had scheduled a “national address and media engagement.” Gerald had read the announcement out loud the previous night, but Sylvester barely reacted. He didn’t care about the cameras. He cared about the truth. He cared about the people who deserved to be honored for their sacrifice. When they arrived at the central government hall, everything felt unnecessaril
