Chapter Eleven: Echoes in the Dark
Rain drummed against the corrugated roof of the warehouse, each drop echoing like a war drum. The air smelled of rust and salt, the docks eerily quiet at this hour.Thomas Bradley stepped inside, his boots crunching on broken glass. The cavernous space was dim, lit only by a few hanging bulbs that swayed in the draft.Shadows shifted in the corners. Men emerged, hard-eyed, their hands resting on hidden weapons. At their center stood a man in a tailored suit, his smile oily and practiced.“General Bradley,” he said, his voice dripping with mock respect. “Or should I say… ex-convict son-in-law? I must admit, your disguises are as sharp as your reputation.”Thomas’s expression didn’t change. “You know my name. I don’t know yours. That puts you at a disadvantage.”The man chuckled. “Names don’t matter in my line of work. What matters is money. And someone has paid a fortune to see the Zedixon Group bleed tonight.”Thomas’s eyes narrowed. “Yan Ming.”A flicker in the man’s smile was all th

Chapter Twelve: Lines in the Storm
The rain had eased into a steady drizzle by the time Thomas Bradley stepped out of the warehouse. The night air was sharp, laced with the smell of gunpowder and salt. Behind him, officers swept the scene, gathering evidence.Thomas’s grip tightened around the bloodstained envelope in his pocket. The photograph of Katherine Liu weighed heavier than any dossier, heavier even than the rank pinned to his name.The infiltrator’s words echoed in his mind. Closer than you think. Someone you trust. But trust was a luxury he had long since buried.“Sir,” the officer said, approaching with a hard drive sealed in a plastic bag. “Recovered from their systems. It may trace the offshore accounts.”Thomas nodded. “Good. Get it decrypted. And double the guard on our informants, someone’s silencing them before they can talk.”The officer saluted. Thomas turned toward the city skyline, its towers stabbing into the night like blades. Somewhere in that glittering maze sat Katherine, Clara, Yan Ming, and

Chapter Thirteen: The Counterstrike
The city never truly slept. From the windows of the military compound, Thomas Bradley watched the towers of glass and steel glow like a thousand eyes in the darkness.Below, the streets pulsed with the lifeblood of commerce and secrets, each neon light a reminder of the battlefield he now walked.He was a general without an army in the eyes of this city. A discarded son-in-law, a convict released early, a man mocked in hushed whispers. Yet behind closed doors, he carried the full weight of command, and tonight, he would strike back.The encrypted files recovered from the warehouse sprawled across the table before him, lines of numbers painting a map of betrayal.Offshore accounts, shell corporations, siphoned funds. He traced them with his finger, each trail leading back to a single spider in the web: Yan Ming. But at the heart of it, intertwined like poison ivy, lay another name. MAGETO-Group. Katherine Liu’s empire.His jaw tightened as he stared at the glowing screen. The photograp

Chapter Fourteen: Fault Lines
The storm had passed, but the city still smelled of rain and gasoline. Thomas Bradley stood alone on the rooftop of the compound, the skyline stretching endlessly before him.Dawn painted the glass towers in gold, yet to him they gleamed like blades drawn against his throat.His hand tightened around the photograph of Katherine Liu, edges curled and stained with blood. Beside it lay the digital printout: User ID — Liu.K.Coincidence? Or betrayal?He slipped both into his pocket as the officer approached. “Sir,” the man reported carefully, “our sweep confirmed: the hacker who entered the bank’s system used credentials tied to MAGETO-Group. The trail leads straight to Katherine Liu’s personal clearance.”Thomas’s chest constricted, though his face remained calm. “Clearance can be stolen.”The officer hesitated. “Yes, sir. But if it wasn’t?”Thomas turned away, his eyes narrowing against the rising sun. “Then I’ll handle it myself.”Across the city, the Zhao family boardroom seethed wit

Chapter Fifteen: Between Love and Lies
The storm broke over the city like a war drum. Thunder cracked, rain hammered against steel and glass, and lightning carved jagged scars across the night.Inside MAGETO-Group’s headquarters, the corridors were nearly empty. Midnight had driven most employees home, but the glow of servers still pulsed from the top floors.Thomas Bradley moved like a shadow, his steps silent, his presence cloaked in authority no one here would recognize. To them, he was still the ex-con son-in-law, despised and discarded. To the nation, he was a five-star general, hunting traitors in his own backyard.The surveillance team had tracked the hacker’s signal here, originating from Katherine Liu’s office.He paused outside the door, the storm’s reflection glimmering on the glass. His hand brushed the shards of his mother’s pendant in his pocket, a reminder of everything broken, everything lost. If it’s you, Katherine, He pushed the door open.The office was dim, lit only by the pale glow of monitors. Katheri
