The silver chamber doors flew open again.This time, it was not chaos entering—but order.Four strong guards in black uniforms stormed in, each one was tall and heavily built. Their boots pounded against the floor like thunder, and their eyes were sharp and ready.“There!” Jethro shouted, pointing at Dan and Merrick. “Restrain them now!”The guards didn’t hesitate after seeing what the young men were up to.Two of them rushed at Dan. He tried to punch one, but the guard dodged swiftly and tackled him to the ground. Dan cursed loudly, kicking and thrashing like a wild animal.“Let me go!” he shouted. “I’m the also your boss!”But the guards held him tight. One pinned his arms to the floor, while another grabbed his legs.Merrick turned to run, but the other two guards were faster. One grabbed his arm and twisted it behind his back, forcing him down. The other guard pushed him face-first onto the floor and held him there.“Get off me!” Merrick growled. “You fools! You dogs!”He fought

Just as Nolan turned back to stare out the window, the office telephone rang sharply.Rrrring! Rrrring!He reached out and picked it up calmly.“Hello,” he said.A soft female voice came through.“Good evening, sir. This is Karen, your secretary from the front desk. Mr. Jethro is on the line. He says it’s urgent.”Nolan’s eyes narrowed slightly at the mention of Jethro’s name. His heart instinctively skipped a beat. During the past few weeks, he got to know that Jethro was not the kind of man who called for trivial matters. If he was reaching out to him directly, something serious was at play.“Alright,” Nolan said, keeping his voice calm, though his pulse quickened. “Put him through.”There was a brief click, followed by the unmistakable sound of Jethro’s deep, gravelly voice.“Mr. Nolan,” Jethro greeted him, his tone was as steady and firm as ever.“Mr. Jethro,” Nolan replied, straightening his back in his chair, his mind was already turning. “Good evening. What’s the matter?”Ther

Nolan quickly stood up, still gripping the towel around his waist. His mind raced as he processed Romeo's words. The sudden visit from the police made him uneasy. He glanced at the leather journal, then at Romeo, his voice was calm but authoritative.“I’m coming right away,” Nolan said. “Make sure the officers are comfortable. Let them wait in the main living room while I get dressed.”Romeo nodded and gave another respectful bow. “Understood, sir.”As Romeo turned to leave, Nolan's mind was still whirling. What could the police want with him? Was it something from his past catching up with him, or was it simply a misunderstanding? He shook his head, trying to clear his thoughts.Once Romeo was out of the room, Nolan quickly went to his closet. He picked out a crisp white shirt and black pants, slipping into them swiftly. His movements were quick, but his thoughts remained clouded. After fastening his belt and buttoning his shirt, Nolan ran a hand through his wet hair. He was read

Zahir’s fingers trembled as he handed the phone to Evelyn. His eyes were wide with disbelief, his mind was struggling to process the news he had just seen. Evelyn, sensing the tension, took the phone from him.She stared at the screen for a long moment, with her eyes moving slowly across the headline: BREAKING: Nolan Rhys becomes CEO of Timo Fintech Enterprise.Her breath caught in her throat. The words felt like a punch to the stomach. Nolan Rhys? Her ex-husband? Alive?She whispered, almost to herself, “This can’t be true. Nolan is dead.”She turned to Zahir, her gaze was filled with confusion. “I mean… you ensured that he was dead, right?”Zahir’s jaw tightened. He swallowed hard, but he nodded slowly. “My men… they killed him. They made sure there was no trace. His body was dumped. Gone.” His voice was firm, but there was a crack of uncertainty now.Evelyn frowned, not quite believing her own words. She quickly glanced back at the phone screen. “Tap on the news feed. Let’s see if

At the large mansion of Jadan Perkins, one of the senior board members of Timo Fintech Enterprise, a quiet but tense meeting was taking place. The evening was quiet, the lights were dim, and the heavy curtains blocked out the world outside.Inside the grand sitting room, six men sat around a wide table. Among them were Dan and Merrick Strauss — the sons of the late Timothy Strauss, founder of Timo Fintech. Their faces were sharp with ambition, and their eyes burned with a hunger that could not be hidden.Jadan Perkins cleared his throat. "I hope we all understand what’s at stake. If this is going to work, we need to move fast."Dan leaned forward, his voice was low and tense. "Nolan is out of prison. Someone bailed him. But let’s not act like we don’t know the truth — he’s got too much power. Power that should’ve been ours. We made one mistake — one damn mistake — and Dad handed him the company like a gift."Merrick nodded grimly. "We didn’t deserve exile for that. We were young. We
