Olga looked confused. Hearing Tyler ask her that question, does she know something? That something is exactly what she found confusing. What exactly was he even talking about? Tyler's nose flared, and his face looks like someone who is hiding something. Something Olga desperately needed to hear as soon as it was possible. With the desperation to know what exactly Tyler was talking about, Olga looked up to him and asked. “Know what? What do you mean by 'I really don't know?'"Tyler turned to Aria. His tone was sharp. “Aria, don’t tell me your so-called mother doesn’t know that we’re in a—”“That’s enough, Tyler!” Aria cut him off instantly, raising her hand.Tyler froze mid-sentence. The words hung on his lips, unfinished. His silence was heavy. Olga’s face darkened with suspicion.“Wait—what’s going on here?” She turned sharply to Aria. “What is this young man talking about? A relationship?”Aria opened her mouth, hesitated.Olga didn't wait. She pivoted to Tyler.“Finish your se

“Yes, Sir!” one of the soldiers barked and strode toward Tyler.Tyler’s throat tightened. His eyes darted from Jeff to Tony, then finally to Diego.The phone was with him—but he couldn’t hand it over. Not while Diego was standing there.Diego, the Winters’ son-in-law, wasn’t just another officer. He was their eyes and ears, a loyal dog to Harry Winters. Every move made inside the precinct or within the military walls ended up in Harry’s hands.If the phone went to the force for investigation, would Diego ever allow the truth to come out? Would he stand by and let them expose Harry’s illegal business dealings?Never. Diego would destroy the evidence before that happened.That was why Tyler lied. He had to protect the phone. It was the last shred of evidence that could bring Harry down. The only man Tyler trusted to keep it safe was Lu Chen—but Lu Chen was lying in a hospital bed, deep in a coma.If this phone left his possession and fell into police hands, it would vanish, or worse, be

Diego’s eyes lit up the moment he saw the notification on the screen: Marshall’s phone has been found.A wave of excitement surged through him—happiness instantly took over. “Oh, thank goodness!” he thought, barely able to contain the triumphant grin spreading across his face. “The phone has been found at last!”He turned to Tyler, his face practically glowing with satisfaction. He didn’t say a word, but the look he gave Tyler said it all: I won.In his mind, he repeated the words with a quiet but fierce intensity—“Wow, the phone has been found! Wow… at last!”Tyler, on the other hand, was seething. His jaw tightened, his eyes darkening as he stared back at Diego with barely concealed rage.While Tony was busy cross-checking the phone to confirm whether it truly belonged to Marshall, Tyler and Diego exchanged a silent but heated gaze.Diego wasn’t angry—far from it. Inside, he was elated. Not just because the phone was found, but because it meant one thing:He had managed to get his

When Jeff arrived at the ward where Lu Chen was receiving oxygen, he immediately saluted his superior. His gaze lingered on Lu Chen’s still form, and in that moment, his mind raced back to how the man had ended up in a coma. The memory of the investigation came flooding in—the one the military force’s internal team had presented to him.According to their report, Lu Chen had been spotted at the scene where Marshal was killed. However, they couldn’t provide a clear explanation of how Lu Chen himself had ended up in a coma. There simply wasn’t enough evidence to support the theory that Marshal had attacked him. All the investigators could conclude was that some kind of altercation had occurred—possibly one that spiraled out of control.Regardless of the uncertainties surrounding the incident, one fact brought a sliver of relief: Lu Chen was still breathing. He was alive.As Sir Jeff stood silently, deep in thought, the door opened and Diego walked in. His eyes went directly to Lu Chen,

Hearing what Jeff had just said, Diego could hardly contain his excitement. It felt as though the dream was already unfolding right before his eyes—his men were already in motion.Quickly composing himself, he masked his excitement behind a tone of urgency and responded loudly,"Yes, Sir! Copied!"With that, Jeff ended the call.As soon as the line went dead, Diego turned away from the doctor's office, which he had initially intended to enter. He straightened up, pivoted swiftly, and headed straight to his car. Without wasting a second, he hopped in, fired up the engine, and took off toward the location Jeff had instructed him to go to. He was more than certain—absolutely one hundred percent sure—that Tony and the other units had already begun heading in the same direction.While speeding down the road, Diego wasted no time in attempting to reach the rest of the units. He dialed the first team—no response.He tried reconnecting with the second unit. Still nothing. Just the same dead s
