“Will sorry erase the trauma you gave that poor girl? Did you listen to her when she was crying and begging you to stop? You’re here begging for my mercy now, but when Katty was begging for mercy, did you listen to her?”Nolan leaned closer, his eyes burning with rage. “Why should I listen to you now?”Dennis licked his lips nervously, his mind blank. He didn’t know what else to say.“I… I…” he stammered. “You can’t hurt me, please. I have a lot to do. I’m a government official. I have a post to handle. Please don’t hurt me.”He swallowed hard and continued desperately.“The government would find me. They would need explanations as to why I didn’t show up. Please, I belong to the government. Hurting me won’t do any of us good. Please, think about that and spare me. Please!”Nolan’s expression changed into disgust.“You bastard!” he snapped. “What does you being part of the government have to do with what you did to Katty?”His voice became loud with anger. “You didn’t remember you wer

When they were finally alone, Mr. Shawn’s twin slowly walked toward him. His eyes were fixed on the wounded arm, on the place where his hand used to be. His jaw tightened as he took another deep breath.“Explain what happened to me again,” he said slowly.Mr. Shawn sniffed and wiped his tears before explaining everything. He told him how it started, how things went out of control, how they were captured, and how everything ended. He spoke with fear, pain, and shame, recounting every detail as best as he could.As he talked, his twin became more disturbed. He had thought what happened to Mr. Shawn was an attack by one of their enemies because that was the only thing that made sense. But this was different and it was not an attack from their rivals. This was someone else entirely. Someone bold and clearly powerful and that troubled him deeply because nobody else was as powerful as him and his enemies.So who could it have been? His mind raced with questions.“What is the name of the bas

Mr. Shawn’s twin, on the other hand, couldn’t believe his ears. He was completely dumbfounded as he listened to the men read the content of the paper in their hands. His face hardened as his mind struggled to process everything.How could this happen? How could he be this unlucky?He had just made a deal with Dennis. Dennis had finally agreed to cooperate with him after all this time. All he had to do was kill the young master, and he would finally get the land he had been after for months.But now, everything was disappearing just like that.“Are you sure there’s no problem somewhere?” Mr. Shawn’s twin asked, trying to stay calm. “Dennis has been working with the government for years now.”He frowned deeply. “It’s kind of funny that this is happening right now,” he continued. “I think someone in his office is just trying to paint him bad. You need to investigate more.”The men turned to look at him coldly.“If I may ask,” one of the men said as he stepped closer to him, “who are you?

As Nolan was driving home, his car started to show signs of stopping. At first, it was subtle, just small movements and strange sounds, but he noticed it. He kept driving anyway, ignoring it and hoping that the car would be able to take him back home at least. He just needed it to get him home. That was all.He should have known that something would be wrong with the car since he bashed it on the cars he met in front of Katty’s house. But he thought there was no problem with it since it could still work. He didn’t think too much about it at the time.What Nolan didn’t know was that the fuel tank was leaking. He was just lucky that the car managed to take him from Katty’s house to the depot earlier. But now, his luck had run out. The car was struggling badly, and if it stopped completely, he would be stranded. It was really late at night, and the road was almost empty.Nolan tried everything possible to make sure his car took him home. He pressed the accelerator gently, then harder. He

“Hello, sir,” the security man said professionally. “Please, can you show me your access card?”Nolan brought out his wallet and calmly showed the security man both his access card and his penthouse key card.When the security man saw both the access card and the key card to the penthouse, his eyes widened immediately. He hurriedly straightened his posture and adjusted himself properly before bowing slightly to Nolan.This was the first time he was seeing a card to the penthouse up close. The people who lived there had a different entrance entirely, so this was truly a first for him.“Welcome home, sir,” the security man said respectfully, smiling again. He was clearly happy and honored to see someone who lived in the penthouse.By this time, the driver had already caught up with Nolan.“You… you… you think you can escape?” the driver shouted, struggling to catch his breath. “Stop right there!”Nolan didn’t even turn to look at him.Instead, he opened his wallet again and took out a c
