Five months back, there were speculations that Brig. Hector, Achilles’ father, could be appointed as the new Field Marshal. Still, for some unknown reason, Sire Rollins Julian, the assassinated Minister of Defense, didn't nominate his best friend as expected by many. Hence, it was rumored that the two best friends had gone into a cold war since the appointment of the new Field Marshal which could have engineered the assassination plot by Achilles' late father. Achilles maintained his stance regardless. “My father would never do such a thing! He loved your father like a brother!

Before the auction bidding of the Hayden Empire, Star, and Eunice had been the talk in the city, with their affluence growing gradually.However, things began to fall apart after they sold off their major business legacy due to huge incurred debt.Both women stepped inside the Liverpool Stock Exchange Centre, the reception from people was cold, unlike how they used to warm up to them.Eunice and Star suspected something more had gone wrong from how tense the atmosphere felt.They could perceive gossip, complaints, whispers, and murmurs from the lips and gestures of those around.Star whispered, her breath filled with concern, “Something doesn't seem right.”With a hitch of breath, Eunice nodded, wondering what the hell was wrong.They had gone to the Liverpool Stock Exchange to inspect their stock products— they invested millions of dollars into them with hope of yielding mind-blowing profits.The stockbroker who had been managing their stock products stepped forward; his countenance
