The maid found Yara’s clothes in the wardrobe, which left her dumbstruck. The maid glanced at each other with a stunned expression.They turned to face Mr. Vincent and the rest. “We found this cloth here.”Vincent couldn’t help but sigh, he didn’t know what to say when his lip parted open. “Get him everything he requested, do that immediately.” Mrs. Churchill muttered. Lloyd and the two other maids rushed out of the room, while the rest stayed behind.When everything was brought as requested, Austin nodded. He asked the boy’s mother to remove his clothes, revealing his upper body. He stood quietly in the room, his face calm and focused, his eyes fixed on the bowl and other items he had before him. He takes a breath. Then lights the incense.Soft smoke begins to curl upward, grey and clean. It winds around the ceiling, floating like a silk ribbon caught in slow motion. The scent is ancient, earthly, calming, like temples and time itself.He closed his eyes.No words are spoken. No

The two doctors trembled, while pleading but Zachary kept a deaf ear to their pleas. They were taken away, and they knew their chances of survival at that moment were slim.Just after they left, Lloyd and Vincent came back. This time they came with everything Austin ordered. They were neatly arranged.“Mr. Davis, everything you requested has been brought.” Zachary said with a low tone.Austin instructed the room to be open, and no one should stand at the entrance. The windows were also left open, as Austin began without hesitation, he took out a necklace from his pocket and placed it around the boy’s neck. Then light the incense, with the talisman placed beside the bowl. This time, he burnt all the incense; the room began filling with smoke. He sprinkled the salt around the bed and on the bed as well. Then began muttering in silence words no one, aside from him, could understand. They felt the wind watching over their face, and the movement was fast enough for them to comprehend.

“Do you know him?” Lady Kent asked. Her gaze darted between Austin and Jeremy. She couldn’t wait to hear what Mr. Heron had to say, so she took matters into her own hands.“What have you done to Mr. Heron?” She spat, “Do you know who he is?” The room fell into stunned silence. The warmth and gratitude from moments earlier seemed to evaporate, replaced by a rising tension. All eyes turned to Austin, who remained calm despite the hostility suddenly directed at him. He couldn’t understand why Lady Kent’s demeanour had shifted so dramatically, especially after Jeremy Heron walked in.Dr. Lucy and the other doctors exchanged uncertain glances. Their expressions reflected a mixture of confusion and concern. No one had anticipated this confrontation“Why are you yelling at him, Lady Kent?” Jeremy asked.Lady Kent turned to Jeremy, her tone shifting into one of forced restraint and guilt. “Mr. Heron, I am truly sorry. If my guest has offended you in any way in the past… please, for my sake

After a few minutes, he raised his brow, leaning forward as he cleared his throat. “Hannah Prescott,” he said, glancing down at the papers in front of him before meeting her eyes. “You have a strong résumé, impressive, actually. But I can’t help but wonder…” He leaned back slightly, folding his hands. “Why did you leave the Prescott Group? That’s your family’s company, isn’t it?”Hannah straightened in her seat, her hands folded tightly in her lap to keep them from fidgeting. She inhaled slowly, steadying herself before answering.“Thank you, sir,” she began, her voice calm but earnest. “I didn’t leave Prescott because I wanted to walk away from it. I left because I needed to step out of the shadow of my father’s name. I wanted to prove that I could build something on my own, that I’m more than just the daughter of a successful CEO.”There was a brief silence as her words settled in the room. She held his gaze, trying not to let the nerves show. “I wanted to earn respect based on my

The room fell into a heavy silence as Ryan’s command echoed. One of the IT personnel arrived, clutching a black laptop and a portable hard drive. He moved with deliberate urgency, sensing the weight of the moment. All eyes turned toward him, and even the most sceptical among the staff grew quiet.“Set it up here,” Ryan said firmly, pointing to the table in the centre of the office.Dave’s breathing grew erratic. His shirt clung to his skin, damp with sweat. Every second felt like a needle stabbing into his nerves. He tried to keep a brave face, but the slight quiver in his hands betrayed his growing panic. He was dumbstruck, Hannah clutched her hands tightly, her chest rising and falling as she blinked back tears, hoping for vindication. Austin stood with an unreadable expression. The IT technician connected the hard drive and began scrubbing through the footage. The screen flickered briefly before a crystal-clear recording from earlier in the day came into view. The time stamp in t
