The next morning, Zane waited for Luna in the lobby of Vance Corp. His expression was dark, unable to hide his worry and irritation.“Luna, we need to talk,” Zane said the moment his sister stepped out of the elevator.“I have a meeting soon,” Luna replied, feeling slightly bothered by the tension around him.Zane gently pulled her aside to a quieter corner. “This is more important than your meeting. You need to fire Amalia. Right now.”Luna took a breath, her irritation rising. “What now, Zane? You’re always suspicious of everyone close to me. First Edwin, now Amalia. What did she do? She just brought back a lot of clients. She even saved us from a huge loss, and now you want me to fire her?”“She’s manipulative, Luna. Louis told me she’s trying to use you to get close to him while tearing you down at the same time. She praises you and then insults you. She wants you gone.”“That’s just your suspicion talking,” Luna answered firmly. “You always assume everyone has bad intentions. Amal

One day later, Zane called Louis. “Have you done what I told you to do?”“Yes, Mr. Christopher. Elipson Corp wants to buy Vance Corp,” Louis replied from the other end of the line.“Elipson Corp?” Zane was familiar with the name. Amalia had once contacted an executive from that company.What was their real objective?“Sell it.”“Are you sure?”“Just do as I say.” Zane’s tone was firm, leaving no room for advice.“Very well, sir.”The call ended. Zane put his phone away and waited for what would happen next.***Luna was busy in front of her laptop when her door suddenly opened. She smiled when Amalia walked in.“Is there something you want to tell me?” Luna asked politely.“Of course.”Luna frowned in confusion when Amalia’s tone suddenly turned arrogant. “What is it?”“You’re fired.”“What do you mean?” Luna was momentarily stunned.“Elipson Corp now belongs to my family.” Amalia lifted her chin, asserting her authority. “So I don’t need to pretend to be nice to you anymore.”Luna was

“What a pity. Your son will die soon, all because of his father’s stupidity. Do you really think your boss will let you live after failing to kill me? Have you ever thought about what will happen to your child?”Bobby froze. Zane was right. Who didn’t know Jhonson Elipson, the infamous mafia boss known for his cruelty and savagery? Jhonson would definitely kill him for failing to eliminate Zane.Bobby could not bear the thought of his son dying because of his own death.“Can you really cure my son?” Bobby narrowed his eyes, staring at Zane with suspicion.“Yes. I can even cure any disease.”Bobby hesitated. Could he trust Zane? He was afraid this was just a trap. But he was already too desperate after exhausting every possible treatment to save his son.“Fine. I’ll tell you. But if you trick me, you will die.” Bobby glared at Zane.“Sure.”Bobby swallowed hard, bracing himself for the consequences of his betrayal.“Jhonson Elipson. He’s the one who ordered me to kill you because you ma

“What happened?!” Zane immediately rushed toward Bobby.“Z-Zane, please save my son. My son was kidnapped by a mafia group,” Bobby explained, his breath coming in short gasps. “I am sure Jhonson ordered it because I failed to kill you.”“Damn it!” Zane cursed. He did not expect Jhonson to still be able to act after Louis had imprisoned him.“Do not worry. I will bring your son back—”“Too bad you will not succeed because you will die here!”Zane turned toward the voice. The female receptionist who had served him earlier was pointing a gun at him.“Do not be surprised, Zane. This hospital belongs to Elipson Corp, a place for illegal organ trade transactions. All the staff working here are trained to fight and kill, including the doctors.” Bobby coughed up blood.Zane growled. What kind of place was this? Since when could doctors fight?“Calm down, Bobby. Do not force yourself,” Zane said.“B-Be careful. Do not be fooled by them. They are stronger than me,” Bobby warned.“Now you will d

Zane stared at Jhonson coldly, with pure disgust, as if the man in front of him were nothing more than a pile of trash. There was not a trace of sympathy on his face.“Heal your daughter?” Zane repeated sarcastically. “After you nearly tore out Axel’s organs, poisoned him to death in front of his own father, and ordered Bobby to kill me and Luna, you actually have the nerve to ask me for medical help?”Jhonson crawled forward, trying to grab Zane’s shoes. “Mr. Christopher, I beg you! My daughter is innocent. She—”Bugh!Ragnor kicked Jhonson away.Jhonson screamed in pain, but Zane’s expression did not change. It remained cold and indifferent.“Do not touch my master with your filthy hands!” Ragnor barked.“Listen,” Zane said as he bent down slightly until their faces were level. Jhonson struggled to breathe as a killing aura poured out of Zane’s body. “I will save your daughter. But there is a price.”Jhonson’s eyes lit up with hope. “Anything, Mr. Christopher! Just say it!”“Kneel i
