Mr. Sylvester didn’t blink. “I want to see your resignation letter on my desk first thing tomorrow morning,” he said coldly. “You are unfit to hold any public office.”The senator’s wife fell to her knees again, sobbing, her voice shrill and desperate. “We’ll do anything! Please! Don’t ruin us!”The principal was not spared, he was also dragged away.But Adrian stood there, unmoved, his face unreadable.He didn’t say a word.The officers dragged the couple away until they faded completely.The entire playground seemed to exhale all at once.No one dared to speak.Even the children stared in awe at the man who had just brought down a senator without lifting a finger.Sophia finally broke the silence. She turned to Adrian, her brows furrowed in disbelief.“How do you know the minister?” she asked softly.Before Adrian could speak, Mr. Sylvester stepped forward with a polite smile, saving him from the question. “He helped me out a long time ago,” he said quickly. “I’m only repaying a fav

Sophia’s heart pounded as she stepped closer to Adrian. Her eyes searched his face, half afraid of what she might see there.“Adrian… are you sure of what you’re saying?” she asked softly, her voice trembling with disbelief.Adrian’s expression remained calm, unreadable. He looked at Derrick’s frail body, then back at her. “There’s only one way to find out,” he said quietly.He reached into his black leather bag and carefully pulled out a small vial.The liquid inside had a red-golden colour.It seemed as if the medicine was alive.The room was suddenly filled with a strange, subtle hum, as if the air itself recognized its power.For a moment, no one spoke.Then chaos erupted.The lead doctor’s face twisted with outrage. “You’ve got to be kidding me!” he barked. “You expect us to believe that glowing nonsense will cure him?!”Another doctor threw up his hands. “This is insane! You’ll kill him before the cancer does!”“This isn’t some village ritual!” one of them snapped, his tone shar

Sophia said nothing, she only watched Adrian, her eyes filled with a quiet storm. Every time she thought she understood him, he revealed another layer, another impossible miracle. The doctors stood frozen by the doorway, pale and sweating. Adrian turned toward them slowly. “I expect your resignation letters to reach the Board of Medical Practitioners before the end of the day,” he said. “I’ll be calling them myself to make sure.” The lead doctor’s face drained of all colour. “P-Please,” he stammered, taking a hesitant step forward. “We were wrong. We were blind—” Another doctor dropped to his knees. “Sir, forgive us! We didn’t know! Please, let us stay. We’ll learn from you" "In fact, we will serve you for the rest of our lives if we must!” Adrian’s eyes were cold. “You mocked me and now you want mercy?” They all knelt now, the same men who had laughed at him moments ago. Adrian’s eyes hardened. “You are not worthy to serve me,” he said. “You mocked what you couldn’t c

Kane spun toward Julia, fury blazing in his eyes. “This building belongs to me!” he shouted, his voice booming through the hall. “These people are trespassing on my property, and I want them out—now!”Julia’s sharp gaze flicked from Kane to the Aldridges. “Is that true?” she asked coolly.Sophia stepped forward. “That’s ridiculous,” she said firmly. “We rented this hall for the entire day. Every legal document has been signed and cleared. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about... He’s just here to cause trouble.”“Trouble?” Kane repeated, his voice dripping with mock laughter. “Oh, I’ll show you what trouble really looks like!” He turned sharply toward Rowan. “You thought you could humiliate me and get away with it? Today, I shut you down.”Rowan’s face hardened, his patience thinning. “Kane,” he said in a calm but dangerous tone, “when will you grow up? Every time you lose, you resort to childish tricks. Haven’t you embarrassed yourself enough?”Kane’s nostrils flared. “Embarrassed?

The entire hall erupted into gasps.“I forged the documents!” the man cried. “I tricked him into paying me a hundred thousand! I swear, it was all fake! I was planning to disappear before anyone found out!”Kane’s face turned white as a sheet. “What... what are you saying?! You...”But before he could finish, a voice rose from the audience.“Wait a minute!” a man shouted, standing up from his seat. “You! You’re the same man who sold me land in North Ridge last month!”The scammer’s eyes widened in terror.Then another voice joined in. “And you sold me that warehouse on 14th Street!”A woman gasped loudly. “So the house you sold me was fake too?” she screamed. “You thief!”Before anyone could stop them, chaos erupted.Several people rushed forward from the crowd... furious investors, homeowners, business owners.They pounced on the scammer, dragging him to the floor.“You liar!” one of them shouted, landing a punch to his face.“You thought you could scam us all and run away?!” another
