The two of them stopped for a moment.Riley stared at the man's revealed face, his eyes narrowing in disbelief.“What the fuck... Kael?”Kael smirked.“You should have minded your fucking business. Now you're going to die.”Riley frowned.He couldn't understand it. Kael was just a schoolboy. Why was he involved in killing another student? carrying a gun and attacking Nearl?Before Riley could figure it out, Kael suddenly moved.He threw a punch toward Riley's face. Riley quickly blocked it and struck back.Kael twisted his body, avoiding the attack, then swung his fist toward Riley's stomach. Riley stepped back and blocked the punch with his forearm.Kael attacked again. Riley grabbed his wrist and pushed him against the wall, but Kael quickly shoved him away and swung his blade.Riley moved aside, narrowly avoiding the blade.He immediately kicked toward Kael, forcing him to stumble backward.Kael recovered quickly and rushed forward again.The two exchanged several blows, neither wil

That very night, just as they had promised, Riley met Rossline at an expensive restaurant in the city.Rossline was already waiting for him when he arrived. She smiled when she saw him and immediately waved him over.“Over here.”Riley walked over and took his seat. Before long, Rossline ordered several expensive dishes. Riley raised an eyebrow at the amount of food she had chosen, but he said nothing.They began eating, and for several minutes, neither of them said much. Riley occasionally glanced at Rossline, still wondering why she had gone out of her way to invite him.Eventually, he put down his fork.“So, what's this about? Why did you call me here tonight?”Rossline scoffed lightly.“Mmm. No hidden agenda. I just wanted to have dinner with you. Is there something wrong with that?”Riley frowned.“I just find it strange.”Rossline smiled and shook her head. “Fine. If you're really that curious, I'll tell you.”She took a sip of her drink before continuing.“You know, I'm here on

The gunshots came—but not from the men surrounding Riley. A sudden burst of gunfire erupted from the entrance of the building.Bang! Bang! Bang!Everyone froze. The sound came from a completely different direction.The large doors at the entrance suddenly burst open, and a group of heavily armed men stormed inside.They were dressed like soldiers. Black tactical uniforms covered their bodies, with armored vests strapped tightly across their chests. Most wore black combat boots, gloves, and helmets, while rifles rested firmly against their shoulders. Their movements were precise and disciplined, nothing like the ordinary hired guns surrounding Riley.And there were a lot of them.Ten.Twenty.Thirty.More kept pouring into the building.Within seconds, their numbers had passed fifty.The soldiers spread across the unfinished structure with frightening efficiency, taking positions around the room. Some moved along the upper floors while others surrounded the armed men from the ground lev

Meanwhile, Nearl's agenda had immediately shifted.Now that he knew the truth about his identity, he understood that it was only a matter of time before everyone else discovered that he wasn't the real owner of the school. He couldn't afford to wait around and see what happened.He needed to act quickly.His plan was simple. He would withdraw a huge amount of money from the school and leave the country. Once he was abroad, whoever the killer was, he would be safe from them. Whether the killer had been arrested or not, Nearl had no intention of taking any chances.With that decision made, Nearl immediately headed toward the principal's office.When he entered, the principal looked surprised. He quickly stood from his chair."Nearl, you're finally here. I was actually worried about you."Nearl stopped.The principal walked toward him. "You weren't in school yesterday. I heard there was some trouble. Are you alright?"Nearl stared at him for a moment.The principal's expression became se

Rossline's anger finally boiled over. She had tolerated their insults long enough, and she was no longer willing to stand there quietly while they mocked her family.“Whatever I do is none of your business,” she snapped. “And besides, your family has done everything possible to drag mine down. You people have used every dirty trick imaginable against us, so just shut up!”Julius and Tina immediately exchanged a look. Rossline's words had clearly struck a nerve, and the amusement on their faces disappeared almost instantly.“What did you just say?” Julius asked angrily.Rossline stared directly at him. “You heard me. Your family is a piece of shit!”Julius's face twisted with rage. He suddenly reached forward, grabbed Rossline by the hair, and yanked her toward him.“You really have some nerve!”Rossline winced and immediately grabbed his wrist, trying to pull herself free. “Let go of me!”Tina stepped closer with a cold smile. “Maybe someone needs to teach her some manners.”Julius ra
