Soon, Victor and the other man who was with him reached the building he had been staring at. The structure looks old, made of wood with cheap designs, and at the top, a thin chimney stood out against the very tall sky, and from it, smoke could be seen rising into the air. The man stepped forward toward the entrance of the door, pulled out a card from his suit pocket, and pressed it against a scanning glass platelet on the door. And in that moment, the glass scanner on the door beeped twice with a green light flashing across the screen, then the door creaked open.The man shifted his gaze to Victor, then gently moved to the side of the door, giving a clear path for Victor to step in. After this, he gestured for Henry to enter.“Sir, please go in. Grandmaster Zarek is waiting for you.”Victor was still wondering whether to step in or not. Everything wasn't making sense, from the entire journey to this specific moment. His heart pounding on his chest, and panic gradually began to rise

The reason Zarek had been in this particular land, inside the single house, was because he couldn’t leave, somehow bound with the atom of the environment. An atom that has been used to create fragments of his existence after the project took place.Years back, Zarek had shot his father in the head after an argument about an experiment and how to govern the entire people, making themselves a god. Though the argument ended up being disagreed, and that was how Zarek killed his father. After everything, he absorbed the experience into himself, gaining immortality, the powers of speed, the powers of knowledge, and a lot more, almost everything that could make a man into a god. But it all came at a cost, a cost that Zarek never expected. He could only exist within a specific mechanised area, customised solely for him. A dimensional space that allows atoms to be manipulated, turning them into energy that will sustain his body. Furthermore, the seat Zarek was sitting on wasn’t ordinary. It

Jessica's heart almost fell when she heard that Sophia was alive; she wasn't expecting that to be possible. And that left her dumfounded, at least; she knew her daughter was still out there. Jessica, at this stage, was badly confused, but deep down, that knowledge eased her worry a little; yet another part of her was battered by the probability that Sophia might not fully recover.“Will she be okay? Could you please try to locate her current location further? You need to help me,” Jessica asked, tears slowly streaming down her cheek. "I'm sorry, Jessica, but that's all I know for now. I can't give you a guarantee that any info about this will be available again, and please pay me the remaining half of the money you promised after getting this intel. I don't like it when I'm disappointed. Please," the man said. Jessica took a very deep breath before replying. "Thank you for helping. And don't worry about the other half, I will send it to your account right away."After she said this

Meanwhile, Hazel was boiling with anger as she stared at Sophia holding Nathan so passionately and kissing him. It was already evident in Hazel’s face that she was furious about everything.Her arms folded across her chest, her face turning red. Her fist coiled, as though wanting to punch Sophia in the face. “This lady is pissing me off to the bone, isn't she? Seeing a child here, kissing him that way in front of Amanda is really getting on my nerves,” Hazel thought inwardly, gasping. “I know she’s doing this on purpose, trying to make me angry, but unknown to her, I don't give a fuck, Damn her,” Hazel added in thought, then shifted her gaze away.Just as Hazel was in this deep thought, she felt Amanda’s cold little hand run over hers. This got her, looked down gently, Amanda’s adorable eyes staring up at her.“What’s the problem? You haven't been eating,” Amanda asked softly, cradling Hazel's hands. Hazel smiled. “It’s nothing, hunny. Are you done eating?”“Yeah, I’m done eating,

“Very well, I'm impressed. I have entrusted her to you, and I believe you'd keep her safe,” Nathan replied from the other end of the phone, then ended the call.“You were on the phone with Nathan?” Hazel asked, stunned. Hazel didn't know Shinda was on the phone with Nathan. She thought he was on the phone with Jordan or someone else.“Yeah, he just called asking me about Sophia's condition,” Shinda replied, sighing hard before dipping the phone back into his pocket.Sophia then took a deep breath. "I think you should have told him about what has been happening. It's safer, so he knows the present condition. We can't take any chances here. You well know if Sophia tries to attack me or attacks Amanda, I won't hesitate to take her down, right?”Shinda then sighed deeply before shaking his head. “I understand the point you are trying to prove, but as we have spoken before, it's not advisable to prevent Nathan from knowing anything that's happening, and secondly, you know we haven't been
