Chapter 100Camilla stared at Dominic. "Why is everyone so afraid of me?"Dominic shook his head."I don't know yet.""Then who is supposed to tell me?" Daniel stepped closer."I will." Camilla looked at him."Then tell me everything." Daniel sighed."There is something your grandfather has been hiding for years. Something that has nothing to do with Blackcrest."Camilla's expression became serious."What is it?""Your birth." Camilla frowned."You already told me you're my biological father.""That's not the whole story." Dominic looked at Daniel."What are you talking about?"Daniel glanced around the warehouse."We shouldn't stay here.""Why?""Because whoever sent those men will know they failed."Camilla crossed her arms."I'm tired of running. Every time I ask a question, someone tells me we have to leave."Daniel looked at her."You're right."He took a deep breath."When you were born, your grandfather wasn't afraid of you because you were his granddaughter.""Then why?""Beca

Chapter 102Camilla stared at Daniel in disbelief."Blackcrest headquarters?"Daniel nodded slowly. "Yes.""But Blackcrest was shut down years ago.""That's what they wanted everyone to believe."Dominic looked at Sebastian. "You knew?"Sebastian shrugged. "I knew there was still a headquarters. I just didn't know where it was."Daniel looked at him coldly. "You're lying."Sebastian smiled. "Maybe."Camilla stepped between them. "Enough. I'm tired of everyone speaking in riddles. If Blackcrest still exists, then I want to know where it is."Daniel hesitated."Your grandfather kept the location hidden.""Then how do we find it?"Daniel looked at the photograph in her hand. "The place in that picture is the old entrance."Dominic took the photograph from Camilla and studied it carefully."There."He pointed at the corner of the picture.A small sign was barely visible behind them.Camilla leaned closer. "What does it say?"Dominic squinted. "Ravenhill."Daniel's face immediately changed

Chapter 104The old man's face remained expressionless, but the slight movement of his eyes was enough for Camilla to know that something was wrong."Where is my mother?" she repeated, her voice shaking.Nobody answered.Camilla took another step toward him. "You said she was dead. You let me believe she died fifteen years ago, but now Raymond is saying she's alive. So tell me the truth!"Her grandfather slowly looked at her. "Some truths are better left buried."Camilla's eyes filled with tears. "Not this one."A loud bang came from upstairs, followed by the sound of several men shouting. Dominic immediately grabbed Camilla's hand."We have to move."She pulled her hand away. "I'm not leaving until he tells me where my mother is.""Camilla, we don't have time.""I've spent fifteen years waiting for answers. I'm not running away again."Her grandfather stared at her for a long moment before letting out a quiet sigh."She's beneath the house."Camilla froze."What?""Your mother is ali

Chapter 106Camilla stared at the message on Dominic's phone, her heart pounding violently in her chest. The image of her mother tied to a chair kept replaying in her mind, and every second they wasted felt like another second her mother was in danger."We have two hours," she whispered.Dominic nodded. "Then we need to make every second count."Camilla looked at the black box in Adrian's hands. "Richard wants the files.""And that's exactly what we're going to give him."Camilla frowned. "You said we're going to make him think I'm alone.""We are."Dominic turned toward Sebastian. "Can you get us into the old chapel without Richard knowing?"Sebastian nodded. "There is an underground entrance behind the chapel. I can get you close enough.""Good."Camilla looked at him suspiciously. "And what about the men guarding my mother?"Sebastian's expression hardened. "I'll deal with them."Dominic glanced at him. "Are you sure?"Sebastian nodded. "This is my mess too."Camilla looked away.

Chapter 108Alexander hit the floor.“Dad!” The word escaped Camilla before she could stop herself.Dominic grabbed her and pulled her behind him as another gunshot tore through the darkness.“Get down!”Sebastian fired toward the direction of the shot. The muzzle flash briefly illuminated the room, but whoever had fired was already gone.Dominic crouched beside Alexander.“Where are you hit?”Alexander pressed his hand against his chest. Blood slowly seeped between his fingers.“It’s nothing.”“That's not nothing,” Dominic snapped.Camilla dropped beside him, her hands shaking as she looked at the blood.“Stay with me.”Alexander looked at her.For the first time since he had appeared, the coldness in his eyes disappeared.“Camilla…”“Don't talk.”“You need to listen to me.”“I said don't talk!”Her voice broke.Alexander gave a faint smile. “You really are my daughter.”Camilla swallowed the lump in her throat.“Who shot you?”Alexander looked toward the darkness.“Richard.”Dominic
