Logan walked towards the exit with a relaxed pace, as if he had just finished a routine job. Samantha followed behind him, still processing what had just happened. But suddenly, Carlos's voice stopped them. "Wait!" Logan stopped, but didn't turn around. Carlos stood up with a limp, James propping himself up with difficulty. Both their faces were still pale. "You think this is over?" Carlos asked, his voice trembling but with a faint laugh inside it. "You think you can just leave after humiliating us? You think you can get anything you want from us? Don't dream!" Logan slowly turned around, his face flat. Carlos smiled, even though his lip was bleeding. "I'm not sorry, Logan. I don't feel guilty. You know why?" He pulled out his phone with a shaky hand. "Because I won't leave without retaliation." James gave a faint smile next to him, wiping the blood from the corner of his lip. "You think you're the only one who can play dirty?" Logan didn't move, his gaze remai

Logan opened the heavy iron door inside the warehouse, revealing a staircase leading downwards. The basement. Small, cold, with thick concrete walls that muffled sound. Like a prison. He easily dragged both Carlos and James down, even though they tried to fight back with their remaining strength. "Let us go!" shouted Carlos, his voice echoing in the confined space. "You'll regret this! You hear? My family will..." Logan threw them hard onto the concrete floor. Carlos and James coughed, their swollen wrists throbbing with pain. Logan stood before them, hands in his pockets, his expression flat. "I won't kill you," he said calmly. Carlos and James stared at him with a mix of relief and confusion. "Then why did you..." "Because you're not worth dying," Logan cut in, his voice cold. "You are just two rich kids who have never faced consequences. So I will teach you a lesson." He turned towards the door. "You will stay here. How long? It depends." Carlos laughed

Everyone there smiled happily. Everyone knew, Richard was not famous for empty talk. However, deep down, Richard smiled shrewdly. He was lying. He knew very well that Logan was most likely behind Carlos's disappearance. And since Samantha was his daughter, and she was entering, or at least approaching, a relationship, with Logan, Richard had no intention of helping the Mendoza family at all. Instead, this was a golden opportunity. An opportunity to strengthen his position, to bind Logan more tightly into his web of influence. Sophie cried in relief. "Thank you, Mayor. Thank you very much." Shane also looked slightly relieved, though worry was still clear on his face. He let out a long sigh, as if a heavy burden had been slightly lifted from his shoulders. Magnus nodded appreciatively. "I appreciate this, Mayor Richard. The Mendoza family will not forget your kindness." Richard smiled superficially, he had already planned how he would obstruct their search without looking suspic

Logan gazed calmly at the magnificent Cloudreach building, and he was immediately greeted by employees who bowed respectfully. As the company chairman, his presence always carried a strong aura of authority.Logan glanced at Chen in surprise. A grand master who was usually calm and confident, had been looking restless since earlier.His hands occasionally smoothed the collar of his shirt which was already neat, and his eyes avoided direct contact with anyone. Logan frowned, trying to understand what was happening to his right-hand man.The answer came when Camilla entered the room.The young woman stepped in with documents in her hand, but as soon as her eyes met Chen's, her entire body tensed up. Her cheeks flushed, and she quickly looked away.Even when she had to report something to Logan, Camilla struggled to lift her face, as if the marble floor beneath her was a much more interesting sight.Chen was not much different. He stood stiffly in the corner of the room, occasionally ste

"Let them come up," Logan finally said.Chen nodded obediently. He did not ask anything else and immediately took his phone and called Camilla back.In the main lobby, Camilla held her phone tightly when she heard Chen's voice on the other end. She listened to the instructions carefully, then hung up and looked at Darwin and Tom."Good news," said Camilla, making Darwin's pale face brighten a little. "Mr. Logan is willing to see you. Please follow me."The two security guards who had blocked their way earlier now looked pale. They hurriedly moved aside with awkward movements.They were directed towards the employee elevator. The elevator doors opened smoothly, and Camilla pressed the button for the top floor.When the elevator doors opened, they were greeted by a spacious corridor lined with marble. Chen was already standing at the end of the corridor, waiting for their arrival."Welcome," greeted Chen calmly. "Come with me."They were taken into a large room not far from there."Plea
