“Your daughter has a fractured skull and worsening intracranial bleeding. Surgery must be done before noon today!” “The operation costs one million dollars. I don’t care if you go through insurance or pay directly—everything must be settled by 10 a.m., or the patient won’t survive.” The doctor’s words hit Logan Brooks like a sledgehammer. His vision spun, his knees buckled, and he nearly collapsed on the floor. Dragging his heavy steps, he walked into the hospital ward. Logan’s eyes were red as he stared at his daughter, Chloe, lying motionless in the emergency pod, her tiny body covered in tubes. She had just turned three. Her pale little face was as pale as a ghost—like a shattered porcelain doll, her breathing faint, barely hanging on to life. This morning, when he and his wife left home, Chloe had been perfectly fine. Not even an hour had passed before the nanny called, screaming that Chloe had fallen from the third floor. She was so little… falling from such

Divorce? The word rang in Logan’s ears like a slap. How come? Charlotte and he had been a loving couple. Why would she suddenly agree to divorce? Barbara must be lying! Logan jumped into a cab, his thoughts spiraling. Ten minutes later, he stormed into their modest home. Almost immediately, he saw his mother-in-law Barbara, and a young man that he had never seen before, lounging arrogantly on his couch. The unfamiliar man was impeccably dressed, and wearing a luxury wristband—his outfit alone was easily worth over a million. The moment Barbara spotted Logan, her face lit up and her smile turned venomous. She scolded, “Oh, finally! The deadbeat arrives. Hurry up and sign the divorce papers!” However, Logan ingnored Barbara’s words entirely. He looked up at the unfamiliar man and asked coldly, “May I know who this is?” “You fool, don’t you know who Mr Liam Hayes is? He is the Chief Operating Officer of Rhine Corporation, the most renowned powerhouse conglome

“Mom—!” Charlotte froze in shoke. Sadness settled in her eyes. And her heart shattered with pain. Little bastard daughter?! Chloe was her daughter too! Barbara’s granddaughter! How could she say such a thing? Logan gently squeezed Charlotte’s hand to comfort her. He wasn’t surprised at Barbara’s harsh insulting words because he already knew she ditested his baby girl. He didn’t even look at Barbara or Liam. Instead, he calmly took out the divorce agreement and pulled out a lighter from his pocket. He took a deep breath. And with a flick of his thumb, the flame ignited. He lit the papers calmly and determined, as if burning away all the humiliation and resentment he had endured under the Sullivan’s roof. The divorce papers quickly turned to ash. Along with it, the invisible chains that had held Logan down were also incinerated. He felt free at last. From today onwards, he would endure no more. Barbara and Liam stared in stunned disbelief. How dared

However, his grin vanished instantly when he saw several burly men in black outside his door. “What the hell—?! Who the fuck are you?!” He paled. “You can call me ... Mr Judgement,” Logan sneered coldly. Then he raised his leg and kicked Liam hard, sending him sprawling backward into the room, which was filled with filthy adult toys and perverse accessories.Logan's face darkened. Behind him, Kane waved his hand, and in a flash, the seven bodyguards charged in and quickly subdued Liam, whose butt was exposed to the air. “The end of the world isn’t here yet! What the hell are you judging? Do you know who I am?! I’m Liam Hayes of Rhine Corporation! Offending me will be the last thing you ever do!” Liam snarled in panic. “I don’t care about the end of the world for others—but your world ending? That’s my business. And of course, I know who you are. Liam Hayes of Rhine Corporation — I came here exactly for you.” Logan stepped into the room with his silver mask gleaming beneath the

Pain coursed through Liam’s body as he slowly regained consciousness. His head throbbed, and his jaw ached from Logan’s final blow. The memory of what happened still terrified him. But at least, the nightmare was over—he had finally seen that masked devil off. Groggily sitting up, he noticed his phone buzzing nonstop—flooded with notifications. BANK ACCOUNT FROZEN DUE TO CREDIT ISSUES. ASSET SEIZED: SUNCREST ESTATE. ASSET SEIZED: HAYES YACHTS. ASSET SEIZED: LUX MOTORS. “No… no… this can’t be happening!” he bellowed, almost passing out on the spot. All his accounts frozen? Not a cent left? Even his villas and luxury vehicles gone? Ah!!!!Liam felt as if his heart were being torn apart again and again.It must be that masked devil! Damn robber! He did it all! Liam attempted to stand but collapsed hard against the wall. The sudden pain was unbearable! He wanted revenge but the pain reminded him how mysterious and powerful the masked man was. He didn’t dare. Looking in
