The tension in the room finally eased the moment Patrick delivered the decision.You could almost feel it.A few of the officials leaned back into their chairs, others let out quiet breaths they had been holding for minutes. The pressure that had been sitting on their shoulders since the Roman family made their move was finally lifted.At least for now.The office director, Ben, adjusted his glasses and spoke first, his tone more relaxed but still cautious. “So in the end, Jaden and Roland are splitting Leon Nagger’s assets.”He paused, thinking it through carefully before continuing.“Roland Sky is untouchable. With his position, the Roman family won’t dare to provoke him openly. But Jaden…” Ben frowned slightly. “He’s been keeping a low profile all this time. If the Roman family traces this back to him, they won’t let it go.”Patrick let out a cold snort, his earlier fear slowly turning into resentment.“The Roman family has always relied on their connections in Bluelock City,” he s

Author’s Note: Peak Corporation is same as Obsidian Corporation. I forgot the name for a moment and just used Peak Corporation.Bishop’s fingers paused slightly on the teacup when he heard the report. The calm expression on his face shifted, just for a moment, before a faint frown formed between his brows.He didn’t speak immediately.Instead, he set the cup down slowly, as if weighing every word that had just been said.“Leon offended Roland Sky and got himself destroyed,” Bishop finally said, his tone low but steady. “That much… is not surprising.”There was no sympathy in his voice.To him, Leon had simply failed.“A man like Roland,” he continued, “doesn’t tolerate arrogance. Taking down Leon Nagger would have been effortless for him.”The room stayed silent.No one dared to interrupt.Bishop leaned back slightly, his gaze sharpening.“Roland holds real power in the military. Clashing with him directly is not wise. We can let him keep those minor assets… the properties, Shimmer Co

The acquisition was finalized faster than anyone expected.The funds came from Rift Group’s latest round of financing, and with that, Obsidian Corporation was officially absorbed as a subsidiary. What used to be their biggest obstacle had now become part of their own empire.The impact on the market was immediate.Rift Group’s valuation surged overnight, climbing to nearly a hundred billion.Inside the business circle, it caused a quiet shock.People started paying attention.—Selena stood in her office, still trying to process everything.Just weeks ago, she had been fighting to keep Rift Group afloat, dealing with pressure from competitors, struggling to expand.Now?She had taken over Obsidian Corporation.Her company had stepped into a completely different level.It felt unreal.Like she had skipped years of effort in a single move.—Of course, she understood the cost behind it.This round of financing had diluted her shares significantly.She now held only ten percent of Rift G

Jazzy didn’t wait to be invited.He casually pulled a chair out and dropped into it like he owned the place, then leaned back and rested his polished leather shoes right on Selena’s desk, completely ignoring basic manners.A smug smile crept across his face.“Of course,” he said lazily. “I’m here to talk about Rift Group.”Selena’s heart skipped.Her first instinct came back again.Could he actually be the chairman?But the way he carried himself…Something didn’t add up.She kept her expression steady and asked carefully, “I don’t quite understand. Who exactly are you?”Jazzy tilted his head slightly, clearly enjoying the moment.“I’m the grandson of the South’s top household,” he said proudly. “The Roman family.”He paused just enough for it to sink in.“Jazzy Roman. You can call me Mr. Roman.”The air in the room shifted.Selena’s brows tightened slightly.So that was it.Not the chairman.Trouble.Big trouble.She straightened her posture, her tone turning more formal.“I see. Mr.

Selena’s scream tore through the office, sharp and desperate, her composure completely gone.“Stop the car! Stop it right now!”Her hands trembled as she clutched the phone, her eyes locked on the screen like her life depended on it.On the other end, the car was already accelerating.Mia and Nora were still walking, completely unaware of the danger rushing toward them.Time felt like it slowed.Every second stretched painfully.Selena’s breathing turned erratic. “Please… please stop… don’t hurt her…”Her voice cracked, her entire body shaking.—Jazzy watched her calmly, almost amused.This was the reaction he expected.He tapped the desk lightly with his fingers, as if keeping rhythm with her panic.“You see,” he said casually, “this is why people should learn to cooperate.”He leaned forward slightly, his voice lowering.“One signature. That’s all it takes.”Selena didn’t even look at him.Her world had narrowed down to the screen in her hands.“Mia… Mia…” she whispered under her b

Jazzy let out a mocking laugh, his lips curling with open disdain as he looked at Jaden and Selena.“I’m afraid it’s too late for you now,” he said coldly. “Even if you strip and kneel on the ground to beg me, I still won’t let your husband off.”His words were arrogant, dripping with cruelty, as if he already held their fate in his hands.Jaden, however, showed no sign of anger. Instead, he chuckled softly, the sound calm and almost amused.“You seem very confident,” he said lightly. “Prepared to kill me, are you?”The casual tone only made Jazzy’s expression darken. The laughter on his face vanished instantly, replaced by naked hostility. Hatred flickered in his eyes as he stared straight at Jaden.“You better hand over Rift Group to the Roman family,” Jazzy said, his voice low and threatening. “Otherwise, your wife will have to stay with me for three full days while you kneel by my bedside and watch. If you behave well enough, I just might consider letting you live.”The room fell

Ryan grinned as he watched the guards drag Jazzy away, his expression filled with satisfaction.“I don’t know about that,” he said casually, dusting off his hands, “but one thing is certain—he will never bully another woman again.”A few of the other security guards chuckled in agreement.Not long after, the guards hauled Jazzy and his battered subordinates out of the office. Their groans of pain gradually faded down the hallway, leaving behind an eerie silence.The once spotless executive floor now looked like the aftermath of a storm. Broken furniture lay scattered across the room, papers were strewn everywhere, and faint streaks of blood stained the polished floor.Jenny hurriedly stepped forward, her face pale but composed. She quickly pulled out her phone and called the cleaning staff.“Bring the full team up immediately,” she instructed in a low voice. “And be discreet.”Within minutes, several cleaners arrived and began working efficiently, wiping down surfaces, collecting debr

Selena’s blush spread all the way down to her neck. She felt both embarrassed and slightly annoyed, her heart still racing from the unexpected interruption earlier.“Are you not embarrassed at all?” she demanded, glaring at Jaden. “Don’t you dare bring up this matter again!”Jaden chuckled softly, clearly amused by her reaction. His eyes held a playful warmth.“We are husband and wife,” he replied casually. “What is so embarrassing about kissing my wife?”Selena’s face turned even redder at his shameless response. She nudged him lightly in the arm, half annoyed and half flustered.“Stop talking about it already,” she muttered, avoiding his gaze. “Let’s just head home. It’s getting late.”Jaden studied her for a brief moment, then nodded.As they walked toward the car, his thoughts drifted back to the incident earlier that day—the close call involving their daughter. Although Mark and Joe had discovered the threat in time and eliminated the danger before anything serious happened, the

The chubby woman let out a cold, mocking laugh, her eyes filled with disdain as she looked at Selena and her family.“What exactly are you trying to say?” she sneered. “Did my dog actually hurt anyone?”Selena’s patience snapped.Her face flushed with anger as she stepped forward, her voice sharp. “What kind of attitude is that? Your dog just rushed at us and snatched my mother’s groceries right out of her hands. Do you even understand how dangerous that is?”Nora was still shaken, clutching the torn grocery bag tightly, her hands trembling slightly.But the woman didn’t care.Not even a little.She casually placed her hands on her hips, completely unfazed.“My Logan just ate a piece of your chicken,” she said arrogantly. “I’ll pay you back. Simple.”Then her lips curled into something uglier.“And even if he bit your mother to death, I could still afford it. My family has more money than you could ever imagine.”Her eyes swept over them with open contempt.“Your lives aren’t even wor

The woman’s cries quickly turned into loud accusations, drawing more attention from nearby residents. People began to gather at a distance, whispering among themselves as they tried to figure out what had happened. One of the security guards, Ben, stepped forward cautiously. The moment he recognized the woman, his expression changed. She wasn’t just anyone. She was the wife of one of Ironvale’s most influential landlords, Nolan Thompson. A troublesome figure to deal with. Ben forced a polite tone. “Mrs. Thompson, please calm down and tell me exactly what happened.” Mrs. Thompson immediately pointed at Jaden, her face twisted with anger and grief. “That bastard killed my son!” The words made everyone pause. Even Ben was caught off guard. His expression turned serious as he glanced around instinctively. “Your… son?” he asked carefully. “Where is he?” Mrs. Thompson didn’t hesitate. She raised her hand and pointed straight at the ground. “Isn’t he right there?” Everyone follow
