Juliet hesitated, then nodded.“You’re right. I just… I hate feeling powerless.”Pearl gave a small smile.“So do I. But power comes from keeping your cool, even when everything’s falling apart.”The next morning, a plain brown package arrived at Louis’s office.It was unmarked, save for a handwritten note that simply read: For your eyes only.Louis opened it carefully, his heart sinking as he pulled out a photograph.It was an old, faded image of his mother, standing next to a tall man whose face was obscured by the shadow of a wide-brimmed hat.The caption beneath the photo sent a chill down his spine: She knew.Louis stared at the image, his mind racing.What did she know? And why is The Broker showing me this now?Pearl and Terminator X entered the office, their conversation stopping as they saw Louis’s expression.“What is it?” Pearl asked.Wordlessly, Louis handed her the photo.She studied it, her eyes narrowing.“That’s your mother?”Louis nodded. “And that’s him. The Broker.”

CHAPTER 190
The team worked quickly to prepare for the infiltration.Juliet and Pearl sourced disguises and created fake identities to gain entry, while Terminator X hacked into the club’s security systems to monitor from a distance.“This place is a fortress,” Terminator X said as he scanned the blueprints.“Facial recognition at the door, armed guards inside. Once you’re in, you’re on your own.”Louis adjusted his cufflinks, his expression set.“We’ll make it work.”Pearl handed him an earpiece.“You’ll have a line to us, but keep it subtle. If they catch you, we won’t be able to get you out easily.”Juliet slipped on a sleek black dress, her demeanor shifting into the confidence of someone who belonged in the elite circles.“Ready?”Louis nodded.“Let’s do this.”The Obsidian Circle was a masterpiece of opulence and secrecy.Chandeliers of black crystal hung from the ceiling, their light refracting in eerie patterns across the room.Guests in tailored suits and designer dresses moved with prac

Before Louis could respond, a soft chime echoed through the club.Elias stood abruptly, smoothing his suit.“Looks like our time is up,” Elias said.“Be careful, Louis. The Broker is always three steps ahead.”As Elias disappeared into the crowd, Louis turned to Juliet, his jaw tight.“We need to leave. Now.”Juliet nodded, but her eyes betrayed her concern.“What now?”“Now,” Louis said, his voice filled with resolve, “we find out everything my mother was hiding.”Outside, Pearl’s voice came through the earpiece.“You’ve got company—two operatives heading your way.”Louis paced the length of the dimly lit safehouse, his mind spinning with the revelations Elias had dropped at The Obsidian Circle.Pearl and Juliet sat on opposite ends of the room, their expressions a mix of concern and frustration as they watched him.“I still can’t believe it,” Louis muttered, the photograph of his mother clutched in his hand.“She was working with The Broker. How could I not know?”Juliet, her arms c

CHAPTER 192
As the group digested Elias’s warning, Terminator X entered the room, holding a tablet.His expression was grim.“We’ve got a bigger problem.”“What now?” Louis asked, bracing himself.“I found a paper trail,” Terminator X said, placing the tablet on the table.“The Broker’s been making deals with one of your biggest rivals—Carter Industries.”Juliet’s eyes widened.“Carter Industries? They’ve been trying to muscle into Apple City’s financial sector for years.”“Exactly,” Terminator X continued.“But it’s more than just a partnership. The Broker is funneling money and resources to Carter Industries. If they succeed, they’ll control the city’s financial network—and The Broker will control them.”Pearl leaned over the tablet, scanning the documents.“He’s building a monopoly. If we don’t stop this, he won’t just destroy us—he’ll own the entire city.”Louis’s hands clenched into fists.“Then we take the fight to him.”Elias cleared his throat, drawing the group’s attention.“If you’re go

CHAPTER 193
The tension in the AAA Group’s war room was palpable.Louis stood at the center, staring at the holographic map of Apple City, marked with points of attack and suspected locations tied to The Broker’s operations.Juliet and Pearl were seated at opposite ends of the table, their stiff postures reflecting the widening rift between them.“This isn’t working,” Juliet said sharply, breaking the silence.“We can’t keep tiptoeing around The Broker. We need to bring this into the open, expose him for what he’s doing.”Pearl, her tone measured but pointed, countered, “And risk tipping him off to everything we know? That’s exactly what he wants—to bait us into making impulsive decisions.”Juliet’s eyes flashed.“This isn’t impulsive. It’s strategy. People need to know what’s happening. The more we wait, the more he gains the upper hand.”“And if we go public without solid evidence?” Pearl asked.“He’ll twist the narrative, paint us as the aggressors, and we’ll lose any leverage we have.”Louis

Pearl leaned closer to the screen.“What are they doing?”“Setting charges,” Terminator X said.“They’re going to burn the place to the ground.”Juliet stood abruptly.“We need to move now. If we act fast, we can stop them.”Pearl’s expression remained calm but firm.“If we rush in without a plan, we’ll walk straight into their trap.”Juliet shot her a glare.“We don’t have time for one of your plans, Pearl. People’s lives and livelihoods are at stake.”Louis stepped between them, his voice cutting through the argument.“Both of you, stop. We’re going in, but we’re doing it smart. Terminator X, get us a detailed layout of the facility. Juliet, prepare the evacuation protocols. Pearl, coordinate with emergency services.”For a moment, the room was still, and then everyone moved into action, though the tension between Juliet and Pearl lingered like a storm cloud.By the time the team arrived at the logistics hub, it was already too late.Flames licked at the edges of the massive warehou

CHAPTER 195
The air in the safehouse was heavy with tension.Louis stood at the center of the room, his arms crossed, while Juliet and Pearl sat at opposite ends of the table, avoiding each other’s gaze.Terminator X monitored a bank of screens in the corner, his fingers flying across the keyboard.Louis broke the silence, his tone resolute.“We can’t keep fighting each other. That’s exactly what The Broker wants.”Juliet crossed her arms, her tone sharp.“I’m not the one playing politics instead of focusing on the fight.”Pearl raised an eyebrow, her voice calm but pointed.“And I’m not the one rushing into situations without thinking.”Louis slammed his hand on the table, startling them both.“Enough. You’re both right—and you’re both wrong. We can’t win this if we’re divided.”He took a deep breath, his voice softening.“I’ve been thinking a lot about my mother. About what she sacrificed to protect this city. And what she gave up to try and stop The Eternals.”Juliet and Pearl exchanged a glan

CHAPTER 196
Juliet studied the plan, her skepticism evident.“And what if he doesn’t take the bait?”Louis met her gaze.“Then we’ll adapt. But he will. He can’t resist a chance to control something as powerful as the relic fragments.”Pearl tapped her fingers on the table.“And what’s the plan when he shows up?”Louis pulled up a blueprint of the location they’d chosen—a sprawling, abandoned warehouse on the edge of the city.“We’ll be waiting for him. The warehouse has plenty of vantage points, escape routes, and places to hide our people. He won’t see us coming.”As the team finalized the plan, Juliet and Pearl’s underlying tension bubbled to the surface again.“This has to be a coordinated effort,” Juliet said, her tone firm.“If we’re not in sync, it’ll fall apart.”Pearl smirked faintly.“So long as you don’t go rogue again, we should be fine.”Juliet bristled.“You still don’t trust me, do you?”Pearl’s voice remained calm, but there was an edge to it.“Trust isn’t the issue.

CHAPTER 197
The warehouse was a chaotic storm of flashing lights, deafening explosions, and the echoing sounds of combat.The Broker’s operatives moved with precision, their movements coordinated as they closed in on Louis and his team.Despite the overwhelming odds, Louis kept his focus, his eyes darting between his team’s positions.“We’re surrounded,” Terminator X said through the comms.“They’ve got reinforcements cutting off every exit.”“We need to create an opening,” Juliet responded, her voice taut as she fired at an approaching operative. “If we stay pinned here, we’re done.”“Pearl, what’s your position?” Louis asked.Pearl’s calm voice came through.“North corner, near the backup generator. I can see their comms relay. If I can disable it, it’ll disrupt their coordination.”“Do it,” Louis said.“Juliet, cover her.”There was a pause before Juliet replied.“Got it. Let’s move.”Juliet sprinted across the warehouse floor, dodging debris and enemy fire.Pearl followed closely behind, her

CHAPTER 198
While Louis confronted The Broker, Terminator X moved into position near the enemy’s vehicles.Using his tech expertise, he quickly disabled their transport, severing their escape route.“Broker’s vehicles are down,” Terminator X said through the comms.“He’s not going anywhere.”Juliet and Pearl regrouped with Louis, their weapons drawn as they flanked The Broker.“It’s over,” Juliet said, her voice firm.“Your men are scattered, your escape’s blocked. You’ve lost.”The Broker’s laughter echoed through the warehouse, cold and unnerving.“Lost? My dear Juliet, you still don’t understand. Every move I make, every loss I suffer—it’s all part of the plan.”“Your plan just hit a dead end,” Louis said, stepping closer.“You’re out of moves.”The Broker stood still, his mask reflecting Louis’s determined gaze.“Do you think capturing me will change anything? The seeds I’ve planted will continue to grow, with or without me.”“Then we’ll uproot them,” Pearl said sharply.“Starting with you.”
