Chapter 272: The Return of the Silver Phoenix!
Trey's voice was jagged and distorted, like a radio picking up two stations at once.Samantha froze mid-step, her fingers tightening around her blouse, while Emily instinctively pulled Tyler behind her.Silver veins of light ran up Trey's arms, branching like lightning trapped under his skin as he stood to block their paths. The air around him shimmered with static, every breath he took warping the space near his chest where the sigil of the Silver Phoenix pulsed like a molten heart. His hair was streaked in platinum fire, and when he smiled, it was a smile that didn’t belong to Trey Woodruff at all.“Well,” he said, voice layered with something inhuman. “Looks like I walked in on a reunion.”The overhead lights flickered violently as he moved closer. With each step, the temperature in the room seemed to dip, and Samantha’s phone vibrated uncontrollably in her pocket before dying altogether.Emily’s breath caught. “Trey… what did you do?”He tilted his head, the silver flame curling
Chapter 273: The End of the Eclipse!
(Back at the ICU)The head doctor’s face was pale beneath the fluorescent light. He didn’t answer the nurse immediately. His gloved hands hovered over Celestine’s arm, watching the crimson glow pulse and coil beneath her skin like veins filled with liquid fire.He’d seen oddities before—radiation poisoning, biochemical reactions, even a few classified military patients whose blood carried experimental compounds, but this... this was something else entirely.“Get me the thermal scanner,” he said sharply. His tone carried a thread of authority that barely masked the dread edging into his words.A nurse scrambled to hand it to him. He aimed it at Celestine’s chest, then froze. The readings spiked so fast the device beeped wildly and went dark, smoke curling from its edge.The doctor’s throat tightened. “It’s... overloading,” he murmured. “Her body’s generating energy—actual energy—at levels that shouldn’t be possible for a human being.”The room fell silent except for the low hum of mach
Chapter 274: Between Flames and Shadows!
The world faded slowly around Tyler. The smell of smoke, the sound of Emily’s cries, the weight of his own broken body — all of it began to fall away, one piece at a time. He felt light. Too light.Then came the cold.Not the kind that numbed, but the kind that emptied.A blinding golden flash consumed his vision, followed by a sensation like falling through liquid air. When the light dimmed, Tyler was no longer lying in a corridor or surrounded by ruin. He found himself standing in a place that looked both endless and contained, like the inside of a cathedral made from light and memory. The walls shimmered like glass filled with distant echoes, and beneath his feet, the ground glowed faintly with shifting runes.He turned in confusion. “Where… where am I?”The question left his mouth, but the air didn’t carry it. It just… absorbed.Then, through the white-gold haze, a familiar figure began to take shape.Jackson.He stood at the far end of what looked like an ancient chamber, his s
Chapter 275: The Re-awakening!
For a long moment, Jackson stood there, alone beneath the fading light of Montgomery, his breath shallow, his heart pounding as though it too were struggling to keep up with the truth that had just been laid before him.The air around him shimmered faintly, golden sparks swirling like dust caught in unseen wind. The silence pressed in until even his thoughts felt too loud.Tyler was gone.Truly gone.And yet, somehow… not.Because the warmth that lingered in the space he’d vanished from still pulsed inside Jackson’s chest. The faint hum of fire beneath his skin—the heartbeat of the Flameborn—had changed. It felt stronger and deeper, like something that had been sleeping too long had finally stirred again.He flexed his fingers slowly, and the mark in his palm responded, glowing with renewed life. A soft rush of heat traveled up his arm, spreading through his veins like sunlight breaking through a storm.For the first time since Trey’s betrayal… since the day the Silver Phoenix unleas
Chapter 276: Homecoming Flames!
The cab rolled to a slow stop before the gates of Sky Tower, the late evening air shimmering faintly against the glass and the horizon still blushing gold with the dying light. For a long moment, Jackson just sat there, staring at the tower’s gleaming spire reflected in the windshield. The driver cleared his throat softly, breaking the spell.Jackson exhaled and stepped out.Instantly, two guards at the gate straightened, their eyes widening in disbelief. One of them dropped his radio. “Sir—Mr. Hart?”The words rippled like lightning through the comms. Within moments, the security gates swung open, and a small crowd began forming in the courtyard.He walked past them all without a word. Dust still clung to his coat from the long road from Montgomery. Each face he passed was frozen between awe and relief, as if seeing a ghost that had somehow chosen to come back.Inside the lobby, the marble floors reflected him like a mirror.Then came the voices.“Jackson!”Yvonne Tween was the firs
Chapter 277: Tyler's Funeral!
Bella stirred awake to a strange stillness that didn’t belong to the morning. The air felt heavy, charged — the kind that comes after storms or the kind that lingers after something terrible has happened. Her curtains fluttered faintly against the half-open window, carrying in a whisper of smoke and the distant echo of sirens.She blinked against the sunlight that cut across her room, her mind slow to catch up. The last thing she remembered was falling asleep sometime after midnight, her phone buzzing nonstop with messages she’d promised herself she’d answer “in a minute.” That minute had stretched into hours — hours that had changed everything.Sitting up, she rubbed her temples and squinted at the mess of clothes strewn across her chair and the blinking red light on her phone at the bedside. Something about the silence outside unnerved her. Sky Tower’s skyline was visible through her window — still towering, still glimmering — yet the city below it felt wrong, and somehow off-balan
Chapter 278: Secrets of Blood!
The rain had thinned to just a mere drizzle, the kind that blurred the city lights into trembling halos. Mr. Copper stood alone near the railing, hands clasped behind his back, his trench coat slicked with rain. Jackson, returning from Silver Cross memorial, approached quietly. For a few moments, he said nothing, just stood beside Copper, both men watching the city breathe below them.Then Jackson spoke, his voice low and heavy.“I found something, Copper, during the few hours that I disappeared. It was about my family. About… me.”Copper didn’t move at first. The rain traced down the deep lines on his face, glinting against the dim reflection of the tower lights. Then slowly, he turned — and in the weary calm of his eyes, Jackson saw the flicker of concern.“What did you find?” Copper asked carefully.Jackson took in a deep breath as his fingers brushed his coat pocket.“I had a vision of someone,” he said quietly. “A girl born the same day I was. Same hospital. Same father.”Copper
Chapter 279: The Return to Empire!
The revolving glass doors of Hart Industries Headquarters hissed open with a soft hydraulic sigh, ushering in a rush of morning air and a chorus of murmured greetings from the staff. For weeks, the building had carried a strange, uneasy silence like a heart that refused to beat without its pulse.Now, that pulse had returned.Jackson strode through the marble lobby in a fitted charcoal suit, his reflection splitting across the polished floor beneath the golden crest of the Hart Empire. The echoes of the Eclipse Incident—the chaos that had rattled not just the city but the global markets, still lingered like ash in the wind. Reports had flooded in: missing assets, panicked investors, leaks in overseas branches. Every eye on the thirty-fifth floor—the board’s sanctum—was waiting for the man whose silence had lasted too long.“Mr. Hart,” greeted his executive assistant, hurrying alongside him as the elevator doors slid open. “The board has been assembled since eight. They’re... restles
Chapter 280: The Atlas Question!
Jackson sat perfectly still, elbows braced against the table, fingertips pressed together — the picture of composed analysis.But inside, his mind was a storm.Sophia’s calm, calculated tone carried the precision of a diplomat and the danger of a strategist. The Atlas Initiative wasn’t just business. It was leverage — the kind that could turn corporations into kingdoms, and kingdoms into puppets.“How long,” Jackson said again, his voice quieter this time, “have you been studying my company?”Sophia’s smile didn’t waver. “Since before the Eclipse incident. Oceania Holdings believes in preparation.”Thomas leaned back, interjecting smoothly. “And in opportunity. You, Mr. Hart, represent both.”Jackson’s eyes flicked briefly to the dossier in front of him — sleek pages filled with projections, diagrams, and coded language dressed up as economics. But beneath the polished charts, he saw the truth: a grid that wasn’t meant to connect trade routes. It was meant to control them. Every suppl
Chapter 281: The Alliance of Shadows!
Elara stood by the panoramic window of her penthouse, the skyline of the city gleaming below her like a tapestry of gold and steel. The city pulsed with ambition, but she saw only pawns — lights she could switch off at will.Ever since the accident with Celestine and Evans, she had been in the shadows, refusing to carry out any actions whatsoever.But when she heard that a new female CEO had arrived in the city just after the eclipse with a world class project that not only had the potential to reshape the modern world but to put the Harts in their place, she became interested in being part of it.Since she returned to the city, one goal had been at the back of her mind, and that's to get back at Philip Hart through Jackson for all the pains he caused her.Her phone buzzed once on the glass table beside her. She didn’t need to check who it was. Only one man dared to call without being summoned.“Blake,” she said smoothly, lifting the receiver to her ear.“It’s confirmed,” Blake replied
