CHAPTER 521
After leaving the Government House, Darren settled into the back seat of the SUV and took out the list Derek had given him.The first name, President Winchester, had already been dealt with. The customized Rolls-Royce had been recovered, and Darren had made sure the lawyer understood his next instruction. Soon, the entire country would know what had happened at the Government House.He moved his eyes to the next name.Jacob Rocha.Darren studied the information written beneath it. Rocha was the owner of a construction company that had been hired by the Hilton conglomerate to build several refineries. The project had been allocated more than two billion dollars, but not a single refinery had been completed.Instead of carrying out the work, Rocha had allegedly embezzled the entire amount.Joseph's lack of supervision had allowed the man to get away with it for some time. Darren shook his head."More than two billion dollars, and the man didn't even build a single refinery," he mutter
CHAPTER 522
Darren and his group entered the mansion, expecting to find Jacob However, the moment they stepped inside, they noticed something unusual.The mansion was completely silent.There were no servants moving around, no voices coming from the rooms, and no sign of anyone living in the house. Everything appeared strangely deserted.Darren frowned."Where is everyone?""Joshua, search the entire mansion. Check every room, including the upper floors. Bring Jacob Rocha here.""Understood, young master."Joshua immediately divided his men into groups, and they spread throughout the mansion.Darren waited in the living room with the attorney.A few minutes later, Joshua returned with his men. His expression made it clear that the search had not gone as expected."Young master, we've searched the entire mansion, but there's no one here.""Are you sure?" Darren asked."Yes. We checked every room we could find. There isn't a single person in the building."Joshua paused before adding, "The only unu
CHAPTER 523
The lawyer’s suggestion made a lot of sense to Darren. When they had arrived at the mansion, the front door had not been locked. That was a clear sign that someone had been home, yet they had searched the entire building without finding anyone.It was possible that Rocha and his family had left before they arrived, but Darren could not completely rule out the lawyer’s suspicion.“Joshua, search the house again,” Darren ordered. “This time, be more thorough. Check every corner, including places that might not seem important.”“Yes, sir.”Joshua immediately turned to his men and divided them into groups. They spread out through the mansion, checking the bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, storage rooms, and every other space they could find.Darren remained in the living room with the lawyer, waiting for them to return.Several minutes passed.“Do you think they could really be hiding here?” the lawyer asked.“I don't know,” Darren replied. “But if they are, Joshua and his men will find them.
CHAPTER 524
Darren slowly turned around and stared at Jacob Rocha.“What did you just say?” he asked, his voice unusually serious.Rocha swallowed nervously. Although he was still being held by the police officers, he could see that his words had caught Darren's attention.“I said I will tell you about the Supreme One,” he repeated.Darren's eyes narrowed.Darren had spent a long time trying to uncover information about this mysterious man. The Supreme One was practically a ghost who appeared only before the people he chose and at the places he wanted. Only those who belonged to the shadow Dawning cabal knew that he existed, but most had never seen his face. Whenever he appeared, his identity remained concealed behind a half mask.The only reason Darren and his grandfather, Derek, knew anything about him was that the man had attacked their family several times. He had even revealed his real face to Derek.Darren glanced at the lawyer and the police officers standing nearby. None of them seemed t
CHAPTER 525
Rocha lowered his head, unable to meet Darren's gaze.“I'm sorry, Mr. Hilton, but I honestly don't know where to find the Supreme One.”Darren's expression darkened.“What did you say?”“I don't know where he is,” Rocha repeated nervously. “I have never seen his face, and nobody tells us where he stays. I only know what I have already told you.”Darren stared at him for several seconds before letting out a cold laugh.“So, after all that talking, you are telling me you don't know where to find him?”Rocha hurriedly shook his head.“I know it sounds useless, but please, Mr. Hilton, you have to understand that even members of the Cabal don't know much about the Supreme One. He doesn't allow us to know where he lives or where he can be found.”“Then what use is your information?” Darren demanded. “Everything you have told me is something I already know. You haven't given me anything useful, and you expect me to let you go because of it?”“No, sir! Please, give me another chance. There is
CHAPTER 526
When Darren returned home, he immediately contacted his grandfather and Jeff.Both men were still out with their respective teams, pursuing the people who had stolen money and assets from the Hilton conglomerate. Derek was determined to recover as much of the family's wealth as possible, while Jeff was helping ensure that those responsible could not easily escape.Darren asked them to return home as soon as possible, explaining that he had discovered something important.It did not take long for them to arrive.“What happened?” Derek asked as he entered the room. “You sounded as though you had something urgent to tell us.”“I do, Grandpa,” Darren replied. “And I think it could be more important than anything we've been working on today.”Jeff pulled out a chair and sat down.“What's going on?”Darren took a breath and began explaining what had happened at Jacob Rocha's mansion. He told them how the old man had revealed his connection to the Shadow Dawning Cabal and how he had offered
CHAPTER 527
By eleven o’clock that night, everything was in place at the Hilton mansion.The technical experts had set up their equipment in one of the mansion’s large rooms, while Derek, Darren, Jeff, and several members of the special unit waited in the living room. Although everyone appeared calm, the atmosphere was tense. They all knew what was at stake. If Rocha kept his promise, they might finally get a chance to find the Supreme One. If they could capture that man, they might discover where Darren’s parents had been held for more than twenty-five years.Derek glanced at the clock on the wall.“It’s almost eleven,” he said. “Has Rocha contacted you yet?”Darren checked his phone again. “Not yet, Grandpa.”“Do you think he will keep his word?” Jeff asked.Darren remained silent for a moment before answering.“He knows what he stands to gain if he helps us. He wants to leave the Cabal, and helping us might be his only chance. I believe he will send the location.”“You believe?” Derek asked,
CHAPTER 528
By the time Darren and his group arrived at Jacob Rocha's mansion, it was already morning.The sky was bright, but Darren's mood was darker than ever. He had spent the entire night trying to track Rocha, only to discover that the old man had left his phone in the Hilton mansion's mailbox with a note mocking them.He had never felt so insulted.As soon as the vehicles stopped in front of the mansion, Darren stepped out and stormed toward the entrance. Joshua and the security team hurried after him, struggling to keep up with his pace."That coward!" Darren cursed under his breath. "How dare he make a fool of me?"Joshua remained silent. He had worked with Darren long enough to know that this was not the right moment to offer advice.Darren pushed open the front door and entered the mansion without waiting for anyone to announce him."Rocha!" he shouted. "Get out here!"His voice echoed through the house, but nobody answered.Darren walked farther inside, his anger growing with every p
CHAPTER 529
Darren had never felt guiltier in his life.He sat in silence for a moment, struggling to accept the news of Rocha's death. No matter how he tried to reason with himself, he could not escape the thought that he had played a part in the old man's fate.If he had never asked Rocha to help him find the Supreme One, the old man might still be alive.What made the situation even more painful was the fact that Rocha had two daughters. Their mother had died a long time ago, and now their father was gone too. The two young women had suddenly become orphans.Darren could not imagine what they would feel when they learned the truth.He wished he could turn back time and prevent Rocha's death. If only he could return to the previous night and stop himself from making that decision, perhaps things would have turned out differently.Unfortunately, life was not a movie.He was not Doctor Strange, and he had no way of reversing time. All he could do was live with the consequences of his decision.Da
CHAPTER 530
Darren stood in front of the security monitors, staring at the screen in disbelief.The CCTV footage he had requested was finally ready, but instead of showing who had entered his bedroom the previous night, the screen displayed an error message. The recordings between the previous evening and that morning were missing.He frowned and leaned closer."Where is the footage?"The guard responsible for the mansion's security cameras stood beside him, looking equally confused."Sir, I don't know. The recordings from that period are gone."Darren turned to face him."What do you mean they're gone? I specifically asked you to show me who entered my room. Where are the recordings?"The guard swallowed nervously."Sir, I have checked the system several times. The footage is missing, but I don't know how it happened."Darren's expression darkened."Are you telling me that someone entered this mansion, stole something from my room, and you didn't notice? And now the recordings that could tell u
