CHAPTER 861
There was no physical way Valthera could have broken into a maximum-security prison block, bypassed the entire police force, and murdered the King in cold blood. It made zero sense. Suddenly, Henry’s phone began vibrating violently in his hand. The caller ID showed the Police Commander's private line. Henry tapped the screen and pressed the phone to his ear. Before he could even say a word, the Commander's voice roared through the speaker so loudly that everyone in the room could hear it. The man was screaming at the top of his lungs, completely beside himself with rage. "VALTHERA HAD A MOLE ON THE INSIDE!" the Commander bellowed, his breath raspy with fury. "THE KING IS DEAD! SHE KILLED HIM RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES! THE WHOLE PRECINCT IS IN SHAMBLES! I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR DEALS ANYMORE, HENRY! BRING ME THE HEADS OF THE KEEPERS! DEAD OR ALIVE! I WANT THEM ALL DOWN! I WILL TEAR THIS ENTIRE CITY APART INCH BY INCH UNTIL I GET THEM!" CLICK. The line went completely dead. Henry sl
CHAPTER 860
Dorian and Grace both shook their heads rapidly in complete confusion. "No one knows about this bunker," Dorian whispered, drawing his own knife. "It's completely off the grid. We must have been followed.""Stay behind me," Henry ordered quietly.They slowly crept toward the heavy door, their weapons raised and ready for a fight. Through the thick glass viewing port, they saw a figure slumped against the frame, breathing heavily and smearing blood against the metal.It was Thomas."It's Thomas!" Dorian gasped, quickly disarming the electronic lock.They threw the heavy door open, and Thomas’s weak, limp body immediately collapsed forward, falling straight into Dorian and Henry’s arms."Thomas! What happened to you?!" Dorian panicked, holding his old friend up as Thomas wheezed painfully."Bring him inside! Quickly, lay him down on the table!" Clara called out, rushing over to clear the heavy wooden table in the center of the room.Together, Henry and Dorian lifted Thomas's heavy body
CHAPTER 859
He raised his free fist in victory, tears of triumphant joy streaming down his wrinkled face. "Now, all the foolish heirs of the ruling council are gone! The Obsidian Syndicate is gone! There is no one left alive in this entire city to stop me! Who says the patient dog doesn't eat the fattest bone?!"The immense exertion proved to be too much for his frail body. His knees suddenly buckled, and he collapsed backward. But his quick-thinking men caught him immediately, gently helping him settle back down into his wheelchair. Alberto didn't care; he just sat there laughing manically into the morning air.Far away from the shifting power dynamics of the city, inside the hidden, fortified underground bunker owned by Adrian, Clara and Henry walked through the heavy blast doors to meet up with Grace, little Brian, and Dorian. They had absolutely no idea about the chaotic bloodbath that had just taken place on the surface streets."Clara!"Little Brian’s face lit up the second he saw her walk
CHAPTER 858
Ashley stood completely still in the dark, damp courtyard of the police precinct, watching the gray ash dissolve into the wet concrete under the falling rain. She was not surprised or startled one bit. This was all part of her secret, carefully calculated plan.A few feet away on the elevated rooftop ledge, Valthera slowly lowered her sleek, high-tech compound bow. A dark, satisfied smirk spread across her lips as she looked down at the empty space where the King had stood just seconds prior."Best shot," Valthera whispered softly into the quiet night, her voice dripping with pride.Miles away, in the dim glow of the war room, Alberto watched the entire sequence unfold through the live camera feed pinned to Ashley’s collar. His eyes were wide, glued to the glowing screen as he witnessed the terrifying moment.That was it. The almighty King, the most feared, merciless man who had tormented the entire city for years, driving thousands of families from their homes, burning down whole n
CHAPTER 857
Henry glanced at her, a small, playful smirk on his lips. "Are you jealous?""Why would I be?" Clara shot back quickly, looking straight ahead. "We are no longer together. You're free to do whatever you want."Henry sighed softly, looking at the rain. "She's fun. We are still trying to figure things out, honestly."Meanwhile, back inside the dark, concrete underbelly of the station, Ashley used her security clearance badge to access the maximum-security block. She walked directly to the King's cell. Using her master keys, she opened the heavy iron gate."Moving time," Ashley whispered coldly.She escorted the weakened King out through a secluded back door that led straight to an abandoned, unmonitored courtyard at the rear of the building. She gave him a hard, forceful shove, sending him stumbling onto the wet pavement.The King stabilized himself, turning around slowly. He didn't look worried at all. In fact, throughout his detention, he hadn't been stressed because he knew Ashley
CHAPTER 856
He reached into his drawer, brought out a thick, official document, and dropped it onto the wooden table. He picked up his heavy ink stamp and began stamping the pages one by one, smiling the entire time. "I was never a big fan of Henry, but I have to admit, I really like him now."Clara smiled softly, looking out at the hallway. "Me too."Then, the Commander's face turned completely serious. He leaned across the desk, his eyes burning into hers. "But let me make one thing clear to you, young lady. If you ever so much as cross me, or commit the simplest crime out there, even something as small as pickpocketing, I promise you, I will personally put your asset right back behind bars! Are we absolutely clear on that?"Clara nodded respectfully. "Clear."Despite the type of life she had to adopt to find Adrian.Clara actually came from a wealthy background thanks to Adrian; her brother probably put trillions of dollars in her name, and she had never once even claimed it or touched it.Wi
