"How could you know?" Samuel furrowed his brow, tilting his head slightly as he looked at him.Darius—the man who had just arrived, someone whose position was higher than his—made him behave very differently from before. He asked cautiously, because this case was not a clear-cut matter.There were facts hidden from what had actually happened. In fact, Gideon had not yet been proven guilty. They ignored Gideon's defence as a suspect and focused only on the statements from the complainant.Instead of investigating further, they buried the truth for the money they had received.Samuel glanced in the other direction, checking to see if the place was empty for their conversation. After making sure no one would hear them, he nodded. "Can you be more specific, commander?" He made sure first.Darius, who had been busy looking around, now turned to him. "I got a call from the higher rank noble that said there was an exclusive involved in a problem. Did you handle it? I asked the others and the

He quickly stood up straight and approached Darius. His head shook, his face looking pitiful. "No, sir, no. I didn't do what that man accused me of. It's all lies."Darius looked at Samuel seriously, appearing to think calmly. The man tried to reason logically, he was the head of the police force. He was in control of all the reports that came in and never missed a thing, it's what he believes.Since he took charge until today, he had never allowed people to act recklessly by imprisoning others just because they had big names. There was always evidence and facts that he used as a reference in various cases there.Gideon stared at Samuel blankly, his eyes narrowing at the man. A few hours ago, he had said something similar to him when explaining the situation, but Samuel was even reluctant to believe it. More than that, he didn't even bother to conduct a cross-examination to prove Gideon's words.He sneered at how dirty the man was. "You want to make him believe just by admitting it?"

Samuel's body stiffened, his eyebrows twitching. He felt a sense of horror in that place. For a moment, he wondered how Gideon could know about it, but he was also sure that the man was just guessing and trying to trap him.That conviction gave him the little courage he had left to deny it. He wanted to survive, so he needed to free himself from the situation that was currently working against him."I didn't do it!" His anger resurfaced and took over, and he stood up straight in front of Gideon with courage.It was a courage that made Gideon salute him because he knew Samuel had no reason for it. He deeply regretted that this courage had not emerged to do the right thing, but only to protect himself.That face cursed Gideon with all the curses he did not say but implied in his expression. "I swear I did not commit the heinous crime you accuse me of. You are slandering me, you are doing all this because you cannot accept how I treated you."He tried to justify himself, making assumptio

Darius was at the end of his tether. Seeing what had just appeared on the screen was like having rubbish thrown in his face.The man had no idea that the subordinate he led had committed fraud right under his watch, just as Gideon had said.He stared at Samuel with disappointment building up in his chest, unable to hold it back until it showed clearly on his face. "You're fired!"He no longer wanted to give him an excuse; protecting someone like Samuel would not save his character. On the contrary, giving him a severe punishment would teach him a lesson and save him someday.However, Samuel would not understand that at the moment. His eyes widened at the harsh reality he had just heard. "No, commander. It's not what you think. I... I... it's just..." His mouth could no longer make excuses.He quickly dropped to his knees and bowed his head low. "Forgive me, commander. I made a mistake. I was truly blind for a moment. My mind was not right, I promise I won't do it again."Darius chose

Leaving the police station where he had been detained, Gideon realised that the day had turned to evening.He cursed as he realised this, "They wasted my time with something unimportant."He planned to pack up his belongings at his old house and thought about staying there a little longer. No matter how old and shabby the place was, it was home to him, the only place where his memories with his parents had grown.In his memory, he did not spend much time with them. In the midst of hardship, they kept themselves busy just to survive. They were almost like chasing time.Even so, his parents still tried to make time for him. Several days a week, he would spend evenings with them in a very simple way. There was no fancy food, just whatever leftovers they had.Throughout the evening, Gideon hoped his parents would continue telling stories. He never got tired of listening to them, but even the stories were short so that his parents could have enough time to rest.Seeing how a small family w

Jollie shook her head. She couldn't believe what she had just seen. "It's impossible for that poor man's life to change so quickly." She twisted her fingers tightly.At the tips of her nails, which had been polished to look beautiful, there were bite marks that made them look ugly and needed to be repaired, or it would accidentally hurt her because it were quite sharp.The woman's anxiety was so obvious, her chest pounding irregularly as fear came at a speed she couldn't control.Her trembling hands searched for something to hold onto, and she found the table to steady herself before sitting down in the same chair Gideon had been sitting in."Before, the executives at the White family company treated him as if he were an important person there." Her eyes were fixed in one direction as she reviewed all her memories. "Then, now he can suddenly get out of prison just like that?"She was stunned, thinking hard about how that could be possible. While she knew clearly that Gideon could not

The car carrying Justin and Gideon drove out of Paul's mansion-like courtyard, which stood majestically in the artificial forest.Along the road they travelled, there were only rows of large trees arranged beautifully. They passed tree after tree until the car finally returned to the main road."So what are we going to do there?" He glanced at Justin, who was busy with something on his tablet.The man opened a report and handed the tablet to Gideon. "This is the warehouse we are going to visit, sir." He pointed to a picture. "It is located in a remote area. Mr. Webster wants us to buy it. But for some unknown reason, the owner doesn't want to sell it."Gideon read and studied the report carefully, noting the size of the building and the history of the warehouse. He flipped through the other pages to see more, but his ears were still clearly listening to Justin. "Why are they refusing? Is the price offered not what they expected?"A satisfactory agreement between both parties was the k

Upon hearing the warning, Gideon and Justin looked at each other in confusion.The shop owner's fear was completely irrational; just because of a question, he immediately shut up and warned Gideon about it.But Gideon found it even stranger and became more interested. "Why?"The innkeeper's face suddenly turned pale as he glared at him. "Don't ask so many questions, you don't need to know." His eyes darted frantically from side to side. Then he waved his hand in a gesture. "Finish your food quickly and leave this place."Justin put his spoon back in his soup and looked at the man suspiciously. "Is something going on here?"The man shook his head, his face stiff. "Nothing is going on here. And whatever it is you want to know, I have no idea." He glanced at the other people there.Justin and Gideon weren't the only ones eating there that morning. There were several local residents who had also come to enjoy breakfast there.Although the shop owner spoke softly and whispered, it was stil

"What am I saying! You should leave this place." He muttered faintly, his eyes glancing at Justin who was standing right in front of him.The shop owner looked panicked, his body stiff and unable to move. He was terrified imagining that there would be trouble because of their actions.Not many townspeople came there, but every time different townspeople came, chaos would ensue afterwards.Thugs would come down and ask about them, then interrogate every resident from door to door, asking what the residents had said to them and reminding them to always keep their mouths shut.Of course, they obeyed. They knew who was threatening them and the risks they would face if they did not heed the warning. They remembered very well that the boss of the thugs was the worst, he had power, and he was quite crazy.He didn't really understand what their business was, nor did he want to understand matters that only complicated his life; he just wanted to live there peacefully and comfortably, going abo
Chapter 30
The small shop suddenly felt more cramped than before. Pressure mounted from all sides, making the place feel even more suffocating for Liam, the shop owner.The air, which had been warm with the aroma of tea and cooking oil, became stifling, as if everyone's breath had been held simultaneously. Liam stood behind the old wooden table, his hands gripping the edges too tightly. He had just heard the thug's question and his chest felt like it was being squeezed.I'm dead, he thought to himself as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.The guests who had come to his shop this time were too bold, just as crazy as the thugs who came to threaten them from time to time."How did you find out about the warehouse?" The bald man did not let up, pressing the two men standing in front of him again.It was a simple question. But to Liam, it sounded like a demand that he had to answer immediately, or rather, Gideon should not answer at all. That mouth was a bomb, and he could blow up the place a
