Selena steadied her breathing and tried to keep her voice firm.“I was going straight. You were turning into the lane. You should’ve slowed down before cutting in. There was no way for me to avoid the collision. This is on you, not me. You can’t pin that on me.”The yellow-haired guy stepped closer, his breath reeking of cigarettes.He jabbed a finger at her chest. “Not only can we blame you. We can hit you too. You want to find out?”His buddies laughed like they had already decided how this was going to end.Selena’s stomach tightened. There was no reasoning with these people. They wanted chaos, not a conversation. She took a tiny step back, calculating her options. None looked good.They spread out, closing in on her. Her hands trembled. She prepared herself for the worst.Then a sleek black Mercedes rolled up beside them and braked hard.The doors unlocked with a clean click, and a well-dressed man stepped out. Sharp suit, expensive watch, hair styled like he walked out of an ad.

As it turned out, Jaden had already placed two bodyguards to watch over Selena from a distance. They had been shadowing her since morning, ready to strike if anything went sideways. The moment the van cut her off, they stepped out, prepared to break every bone those hooligans had.But Joseph Queen swooped in first and stole the moment.The bodyguards backed off and watched. They didn’t like it, but protocol was protocol. Selena wasn’t harmed. That meant they had to report, not interfere.And the report reached Jaden in less than thirty seconds.The second he heard her name tied to the word “surrounded,” he didn’t hesitate. He grabbed Mia, got in the car, and pushed the BMW harder than he should have. He saw the wrecked phone on the ground before he even parked. His expression already darkened. How dare they assault his wife?Selena ran straight to him. The fear on her face told him everything. She clung to him and Mia, her voice shaky as she explained the crash, the crowding, and how

Selena Verrick stared at the group of hooligans lying on the ground. Some were clutching broken arms, others could barely move. Their clothes were torn, faces bruised, and a few were whimpering in pain.She covered her mouth in shock.With her voice trembling, she turned to Morix.“Mr. Sable… what’s going on? Why are they like this?”Morix Sable didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he walked over to the yellow-haired guy — the one who looked the worst among them.The man was sprawled on the ground, face swollen, nose bleeding heavily.Morix gave him a hard kick to the side and barked, “Get up and talk! You heard her question. Answer Mrs. Rift properly.”The yellow-haired guy coughed, spat out blood, and forced himself to speak.His voice was weak and shaky.“I-It was Joseph Queen…” he began. “He… he paid each of us one hundred thousand to act like we were attacking her. Then he planned to rush in, pretend to save her, and look like a hero.”Selena’s breath caught.The man continued, “H

At that very moment… A sleek black Maybach rolled to a slow stop at the side of the road. Inside the car sat Carl Rajar, his sideburns snowy white, his sharp eyes cold under the dim streetlights. He wore a fitted black suit and leaned back calmly, as if nothing in the world could shake him. Two men sat with him. One was Yoel Lagorio, tall and built like a fighter. His slanted eyes and fierce expression made him look like someone who never backed down from a fight. The other was Fabian Howard, shorter but extremely muscular, his skin tanned and his presence intimidating. With his thick arms and powerful build, he looked like a tiger ready to pounce. Yoel and Fabian were more than friends—they were Carl’s sworn brothers. His most trusted men. His eyes and ears. Yoel watched the road with narrowed eyes as a car carrying Joseph Queen’s beaten men rushed past them. He scoffed. “Look at that. We really thought too highly of Joseph Queen. He couldn’t even deal with Morix Sable

Joseph never expected Morix to sentence him to death so quickly. Panic exploded inside him, and he began screaming, kicking, and twisting in pure desperation. But Jack pressed him down with one boot, pinning him to the dirt like a trapped animal. “Stop struggling,” Jack hissed. Joseph’s voice cracked as he begged for mercy, but Jack didn’t care. He lifted his dagger high, aiming straight for Joseph’s heart. Just as the blade was about to come down— Fssst! A tiny spark shot through the air like a bullet and struck Jack’s wrist. “ARGH!” Jack yelled as the dagger slipped from his hand and dropped to the ground with a loud clatter. His wrist reddened instantly, swelling with painful blisters. Jack stared, confused. “What the hell—?” He looked down and realized the object that hit him was… a cigarette butt. Morix’s expression darkened. “Who’s there?!” He and Jack snapped their heads toward the entrance of the abandoned building. Three figures slowly stepped into

That afternoon, after lunch, Selena left for work again.Jaden stayed behind to look after their daughter and keep his in-laws company. It was a peaceful, quiet moment… until his phone suddenly buzzed.Jack’s name flashed on the screen.Jaden answered, and immediately heard Jack’s weak whisper.“Master… we’re in trouble.”Jaden’s expression stiffened.“What happened? Where’s Morix?”“He’s hurt,” Jack rasped. His breathing was all over the place, as though he was holding the phone with shaking hands.Jaden’s brows drew together.“Tell me everything.”Jack explained the entire incident—the cigarette attack, the sudden appearance of Carl Rajar and his men, the battle, and how Morix was defeated and captured.At the end, Jack said, “Carl left a message… He wants you to meet him at the Eastern Suburbs Shooting Arena. Alone. Before sunset. If you don’t show up, he’ll kill Morix.”“I understand,” Jaden said quietly.But his eyes hardened.“Jack, take care of yourself. Anyone injured—treat th

Carl looked at Bullet, a flicker of hesitation in his eyes.“Are you sure about this, Bullet?”Bullet lifted his chin proudly.“Of course! I’m not only known in Ironvale City —people all over the South know my name. And look around.”He gestured at the armed men standing behind him.“I’ve got twenty loyal fighters and enough handguns here to arm a small army. If Jaden Rift dares to step inside this arena today, he’ll leave in pieces. I guarantee it.”Carl slowly nodded. Bullet’s confidence, plus the sight of all those weapons, was enough to reassure him.Twenty vicious men.A warehouse full of guns.A shooting arena built for killing.Even Jaden wouldn’t survive a rain of bullets.“Fine,” Carl said. “If he comes, kill him. If he doesn’t show up… kill Morix.”“Yes, Mr. Rajar!” Bullet shouted, his voice echoing through the arena.Satisfied, Carl turned and walked out toward his Maybach. Yoel and Fabian followed him out, and soon, the trio sped toward the funeral parlor.---As their car

Bullet’s lips curled upward into a wolfish grin.“Well, well… how noble of him. Walking straight into the lion’s den.” He brandished his Desert Eagle proudly. “If I kill him along with Morix, Mr. Rajar will drown me in rewards. Let him in. Let him waltz into his grave.” He cracked his knuckles, there was no way Jaden was going to survive here. He had 20 trained killers with weapons, he’s literally an army vs one man.The subordinate nodded and sprinted back out.Moments later, the heavy steel door groaned open.A tall, striking man stepped through it—calm, elegant, deadly. His pace was unhurried, as though he were walking into a shopping mall rather than a den of killers. His starry eyes swept across the arena, analyzing each inch with quiet curiosity.Jaden Rift.He took his time, strolling past the rows of targets, soundproof walls, racks of polished firearms, and training stations. But the moment his gaze landed on Morix—tied to a target board like a slaughterhouse victim—his expre

Ten years ago, a locally registered luxury cruise ship—stuffed with millionaires, politicians’ sons, and underground gamblers—sailed into international waters for an exclusive, illegal gambling event.It never returned.Halfway through the night, a pirate crew stormed the vessel. The ship was hijacked, looted, and eventually blown apart, sinking into the dark waves and dragging every soul onboard to the ocean floor.The tragedy dominated global headlines for months.But because it happened in international waters, no government took responsibility. No jurisdiction wanted the burden. Evidence was scarce, and the pirates vanished like ghosts.To this day, the offenders had never been caught.Jaden had read the reports years ago… but he never imagined he would stand face-to-face with the butchers who caused the massacre.He nodded calmly. “Alright then. That settles it.”Bullet blinked, confused. “What do you mean ‘that settles it’?”Jaden raised his hand, curling his fingers into a simp

Carl’s face twisted, his brows pulled tight. “How did he screw this up? Does Jaden Rift have a hand in this?”Yoel shook his head right away. “The people behind that tragedy stayed buried for years. Even if Jaden is digging, he isn’t tearing that wall down in a day.”Fabian leaned forward. “The police have been chewing on that case forever and they still pinned everything on Bullet. Today’s raid looked like dumb luck, nothing more.”Carl let out a slow breath. The pressure in his chest eased as their words sank in. Jaden couldn’t have uncovered anything real. Not in a few days. Not with the resources he had. The idea almost felt insulting.“That family got lucky today.” Carl’s voice sharpened. “I built a clean trap. They should be dead.”Yoel shifted the urn in his hands, almost cradling it. His tone dropped. “Big Brother, Shadowmoor is waiting for Carley’s ashes. What is the plan now?”Carl opened his mouth but Fabian cut in before a single word left. “Take her home.” His voice lower
