That hit harder than a slap. Rico’s grin vanished, his pride dented. He looked at her, searching for a sign she was joking, but her expression stayed calm — firm, composed, completely uninterested.He turned back slowly, smoke still curling from the cigarette between his fingers, a faint smirk creeping over his lips.“Your man?” he repeated, voice dripping with disbelief. “And where is this mystery man of yours? Leaving a pretty thing like you alone here in a place like this?”Sierra frowned. “He trusts me,” she said calmly.Rico laughed under his breath. “Trusts you? Or just doesn’t care?” He leaned closer to the table again, confidence swelling back into his tone. “Look, no disrespect, but I can already tell— whoever he is, he’s not doing enough for you.”Betty raised an eyebrow. “Excuse me?”Rico grinned wider, ignoring her. “Come on, I can tell class when I see it. You deserve more than some broke-hearted, average guy who probably drives an old car and promises you dreams he can’t

Sierra’s jaw tightened. She straightened her back, meeting Sophia’s gaze without flinching. “You should be careful,” she said evenly, her voice calm but edged with warning. “Watch how you talk about my man.”Betty folded her arms, glaring up at Sophia. “Yeah, maybe you should,” she added, unimpressed. “You’re too dressed up to sound that bitter.”Sophia’s smile twitched faintly — she didn’t expect the pushback. She lifted her glass, masking her irritation with another sip of wine, though her eyes lingered on Sierra longer than they should.Sophia’s smirk deepened as she stepped a little closer to the table, the white wine glass now loosely hanging between her fingers. Sierra’s warning seemed to amuse her more than anything. She tilted her head slightly, her voice low and mocking.“Oh, please,” she said, letting out a soft, fake laugh. “You really think you can defend a man like him? You? Don’t make me laugh, Sierra.”Before either Sierra or Betty could react, Sophia’s hand moved sudde

The murmur in the room rose again, some faces curious, some disgusted. A few men near the bar shifted, tempted by the money and the promise of a fight; others lowered their heads, uncomfortable with how far Sophia had pushed things. The bartender’s jaw tightened. He exchanged a look with a burly man by the back — one of the lounge’s off-duty security — who was already inching forward.“Boss is not in, Miss Bennett,” the bartender said carefully, stepping between Sophia and the table. “I can’t have this here. Please — calm down.”Sophia laughed like it was an insult. “Don’t lecture me. You forget who keeps this place full of people. You forget who brings the clients, the money. I know the owner. I know everyone who matters.” She spat the last words as if proving them made the world bend to her.From the corner, the three men who’d been watching Sierra glanced at one another. The first man’s hand twitched toward his cigarette; the second, the middle one — the one who had earlier said to

Kaizer didn’t look back this time; he simply walked forward, expecting Sierra to follow. The scent of his cigar still hung in the air.Sophia’s face twisted in anger and embarrassment. Her plan had completely turned against her, and now the same man she claimed to know was treating Sierra with respect — even interest. She clenched her fists, her jaw tight.Kaizer stopped halfway and turned slightly, his eyes landing on Sierra again.“Come,” he said, voice steady and deep.Sierra hesitated for only a moment before finally taking a quiet breath and standing up. Betty gave her a look — half surprised, half impressed — then shrugged and rose too. Together, they began walking toward Kaizer.As they passed the tables, whispers followed them like ripples in still water. Everyone’s eyes trailed after the two women — especially Sophia’s.Sophia stood frozen, her hands trembling slightly at her sides. Her expensive dress was still damp, her hair messy from the water Sierra had poured earlier. S

The boss’s hand flashed out. His slap landed hard across the man’s face.The man’s head jerked to the side and he collapsed to the cold floor, coughing and stunned.The other men shivered, fear running over their faces. They drew their knees closer to their chests and hugged themselves as if to stay small.Ragnar bent down and glared at them. “You are useless,” he said slowly, each word like a cut. “If you cannot even collect money, if one man can beat you all, then you are nothing. Do better—or I will replace you.”They bowed their heads lower, shame and terror making their bodies shake. Ragnar straightened, his coat brushing the floor, and walked out of the room.Behind the motorbike that trailed Sierra and Betty’s car, an old dark jeep followed quietly — its headlights dimmed, keeping a safe distance. Inside were the three men from the Aurum Lounge who had been watching Sierra earlier.The man in the passenger seat flicked ashes from his cigarette out the window, eyes narrowing as

Blood pooled quickly beneath the wounded bodyguard, spreading dark and warm over the cold asphalt. His breaths came short and ragged, each one sharper than the last. He tried to push himself up but fell back, his strength fading fast.With trembling fingers, he reached into his pocket, pulling out his phone. The screen was smeared with red as he unlocked it weakly, every second feeling heavier than the last.He scrolled shakily through his contacts, the world around him spinning, and finally found the one he needed — Ambulance Services.His thumb hovered for a moment, then pressed the call button.The ringing tone buzzed faintly through the night, mixing with the low hum of faraway traffic.“P–please…” he gasped, his voice barely audible, blood trickling from the corner of his lips. “I… I need… help… shot… road… outside… Ironvale highway…”The operator’s voice came through the phone, calm but urgent. “Sir, stay with me. Help is on the way. Can you tell me your exact—”But the phone sl

“Elijah!” she gasped, her face flushing instantly with embarrassment. She jumped up from the sofa, pulling her blanket over herself in panic.“I—I didn’t know anyone was awake!” she stammered, her voice trembling slightly as she fumbled to fix her clothes and switch off the television completely. The silence that followed was so heavy it felt like the air itself had stopped moving.Elijah blinked, caught between surprise and confusion. He hadn’t expected this — not at all. His expression stayed calm, but there was no mistaking the hint of awkwardness in his eyes.Jessica, unable to meet his gaze, kept talking quickly, nervously. “I wasn’t— I mean— it wasn’t what it looked like, I just couldn’t sleep, so I— I turned on the TV and—”Elijah raised a hand lightly, cutting her off before she tangled her words further. “It’s fine,” he said quietly. “You don’t have to explain.”Her face burned even redder. “I swear I didn’t mean—”“Jessica,” Elijah said again, his tone calm but gentle. “Rela

“Young master?” they all said at once, shock written across their faces.Phantom froze for a moment, realizing he had said too much. His eyes flicked toward Elijah, whose calm stare met his with a quiet warning.Jessica’s and Shadow’s gazes darted back and forth between the two men, confusion written all over their faces. Even Felix lifted his eyes briefly, hiding a grin behind his cup.Phantom let out an awkward chuckle, rubbing the back of his neck. “Ah—well,” he said quickly, forcing a smile, “Elijah here is… uh, very good. He’s my second-in-command in the team. So naturally, he’s the ‘young master’ there.”Jessica and her father both exchanged glances and slowly nodded, the explanation making enough sense to settle their curiosity.“Ohh,” Shadow said, relaxing with a laugh. “So that’s what you meant. I was about to think we were living with a prince or something.”Phantom laughed a little too loudly. “No, no—nothing like that.”Jessica still looked intrigued but let it go, glancin

Phantom stared at Elijah as if trying to confirm he’d heard right.Lucian gave a smug half-smile. “Finally, he admits it,” he said coldly.Aurora’s expression didn’t change, but her tone carried venom. “And for that offense,” she said, “your presence here brings ruin upon anyone foolish enough to shelter you.”Elijah stood tall, unflinching, his gaze meeting hers. “Then I guess I’ll have to protect them,” he said quietly. “And make sure your threats end here.”Phantom’s breath caught as realization hit him like a punch.“Elijah…” he muttered under his breath, eyes widening.It all made sense now. Months ago, Elijah had casually asked him about the Halden family—their influence, their reach, their strength. Phantom had thought it was just curiosity, a harmless question. He’d told him then how the Haldens were not just powerful in Ironvale, but respected and feared across multiple cities. He’d warned him never to cross them.But he had no idea Elijah already had.Now, standing there in

Chapter 461Jessica’s heart jumped at his words. “You can’t mean that… you’re going to them?”“Yes,” Elijah replied simply. “I’ll go to their home. I want to meet their patriarch.”Jessica’s voice trembled as she stepped closer to Elijah, eyes filled with worry.“Elijah, please don’t go,” she said desperately, gripping his arm tightly. “You don’t understand — the Halden family doesn’t listen, they punish. If you walk into their home, they won’t even let you explain yourself.”Elijah turned his calm gaze toward her, the faintest smile playing on his lips. “Jessica, it’s alright,” he said softly. “I’m not going there to fight them. I’ll just apologize, settle things peacefully, and come back. Don’t worry so much.”She shook her head quickly, her voice rising slightly. “No, you can’t just walk in there and talk your way out! You’re not dealing with ordinary people, Elijah — they’re dangerous! Please, don’t go.”Elijah sighed gently and rested his hand on her shoulder. “If I don’t go, the
