Chapter One "Three years in this damn place. I'm finally going home to my wife and sister." Marcus's lips curled into a faint smile. "I could imagine how happy they'll be to see me."For three long years, he had been locked inside this prison. Greenville County Jail was one of the worst prisons in the area, filled with dangerous criminals and men with serious criminal records.Marcus had spent every single one of those three years behind these cold prison walls. Now, after all that time, he was finally going home.. Walking out of those prison gates and stepping into the warm sunlight again, Marcus felt a strange sense of freedom, he was finally breathing fresh air again.Before he could take another step, a brand-new 2025 Ferrari pulled up right in front of him.

Chapter ThreeMarcus was stunned by what he had just heard. He couldn't believe it and quickly looked around to see if there was anyone else standing nearby."Are you talking to me?" he asked.Sophia smiled and moved closer to him, gently resting her arm on his."Yes. You're my future husband-to-be. I know very well what I'm saying," she repeated.Marcus nodded slowly, still feeling like none of this was real. He gently took her arm and removed it from his."Let's have some mutual respect for each other. This must be some kind of prank. I'm sorry, but I'm not interested," he replied.Sophia simply smiled. "I'm very serious about this. The ring on your finger, wasn't it given to you by someone?"Marcus immediately looked down at his finger. It was the ring his master had given him inside the prison.How did she know about it?"Yes. It was given to me by my master," he replied."Years ago, Master Arthur saved my grandfather's life. Since then, he has been a benefactor of the Wilson fami

Chapter FiveSeeing her son collapsed on the floor, Anita immediately screamed hysterically. "You bastard! How dare you hit my son?"She rushed toward Desmond and helped him up, her face filled with rage."You will pay a terrible price for this! Do you really think you can just walk into my house after three years in prison and behave however you want?"Marcus remained completely calm, holding his mother securely in his arms.Anita pointed angrily at him. "Even if you manage to take that old hag away, she won't survive the night! Do you understand that? She will die before tomorrow morning!"Marcus's eyes turned cold.Anita sneered when she saw that he still wasn't responding. "Do you even know who my daughter is with right now?"Marcus said nothing."Young Master Donald Lionel!"Anita's voice was filled with pride. "In this city, the Lionel family controls the largest medical conglomerate. More than eighty percent of all the hospitals belong to them, and almost every top medical spec

Crystal chandeliers hung from the enormous ceiling, casting brilliant light across the golden decorations and polished marble floor. Powerful businessmen and company executives filled the enormous hall, each one dressed in expensive designer suits and evening gowns.At the center of the main table sat Dickson, one of the Wilson Group's core executives and the investment director responsible for approving some of the group's most important business partnerships.His presence alone was enough to make the entire hall feel different.Every executive desperately wanted his attention. One by one, they stepped forward with expensive gifts."Director Dickson, this is a limited-edition Patek Philippe Grandmaster Chime. Only a handful were produced worldwide. Please accept it as a small token of my respect."Dickson glanced at the luxurious watch before calmly nodding."Thank you.

Chapter NineBack inside the clubhouse, Dickson saw that Jenny still refused to obey. His expression darkened immediately."If you don't crawl out and serve me right now," he said coldly, "I can guarantee your ex-convict brother won't live to see tomorrow."Those words shattered Jenny completely. She could endure suffering herself, but she couldn't bear the thought of her brother dying because of her. Tears gathered in her eyes desperately hoping Marcus would never come here.She knew exactly what these people were capable of. Her lips trembled as she slowly lowered herself to the floor.Knowing she had no escape, Jenny gritted her teeth and began crawling out of the cage little by little.
