Chapter 207
The city woke up to chaos disguised as headlines.It started as a notification—small, easy to ignore. Then another. And another. Within minutes, every screen carried the same breaking story, every channel echoing the same urgency.“BREAKING: HIGH-PROFILE PRISON ESCAPE.”The footage rolled endlessly.Flashing police lights.Crowds gathering outside the correctional facility.Armed officers moving with tense coordination.Then—The images appeared.Clear.Unavoidable.Lucas Brown.His face filled the screen.Bruised, slightly cut, but still carrying that familiar sharpness—only now, there was something darker behind his eyes. Something colder.A voiceover followed:“Lucas Brown, heir to the Brown conglomerate, has escaped prison alongside four inmates. Authorities confirm that two of the escapees were shot dead during pursuit. Three individuals, including Brown, remain at large.”The screen shifted, displaying the blurred but distinct faces of the two other fugitives still missing.“Pol

The narrow passage seemed endless.The air grew heavier the deeper they moved, dust clinging to their skin, their breathing growing louder in the confined space.Lucas’s arms ached.His ribs burned.But he didn’t stop.He couldn’t.Ahead, the man leading them suddenly slowed.Then stopped.A hand lifted slightly in the darkness.A signal.“Wait.”Everyone froze.Lucas held his breath, his heart pounding against his chest.For a moment—Nothing.Then the man shifted forward slightly, his hand reaching upward.A faint metallic sound followed.Click.Another.Click.Lucas frowned.“…What is that?”“Second panel,” the man whispered.A pause.“Other side of the wall.”Lucas’s eyes adjusted slightly to the faint line of light above.There was a seam.Barely visible.The man pressed against it carefully.Nothing happened.He adjusted his grip.Pressed again—Harder.This time—A soft crack echoed.The panel loosened.A thin line of light broke through the darkness.Lucas blinked slightly as

Night came slowly.The prison didn’t sleep—It just grew quieter.Dim lights flickered along the corridors, guards rotated in steady patterns, and the distant echoes of metal doors became less frequent.Inside the cell—Lucas sat still on his bunk.Across from him, the quiet inmate finally moved again.He stood up, stretching slightly like nothing unusual was about to happen.Then he walked over.“No sudden movements,” he said under his breath.Lucas nodded faintly.“I’m listening.”The man crouched slightly beside him, his voice low enough that no one else could hear.“The route starts here.”Lucas frowned.“…Here?”The man tapped lightly against the wall beside Lucas’s bunk.“There’s a maintenance panel behind this section.”Lucas’s eyes narrowed.“I didn’t see anything.”“You’re not supposed to.”A slight smirk.“It’s sealed from the outside, but loose from this side.”Lucas glanced at the wall again.“…And then?”The man continued.“Once we open it, there’s a narrow passage. It co

The air inside the prison was cold.Heavy.Unforgiving.Metal doors echoed as they opened and closed, each sound reminding everyone inside of the reality they couldn’t escape.In one of the visitation roomsLucas Anderson sat across the table, his hands clenched together, his once-polished appearance now worn down by days behind bars.But his eyesStill carried expectation.Hope.The door opened.Footsteps approached.Lucas looked up immediately.And there he was.His father.Mr. Brown.Dressed sharply as always.But his faceWas darker than Lucas had ever seen it.Lucas stood halfway, a faint smile forming despite everything.“Dad…”His voice carried relief.“I knew you’d come.”He let out a short breath, almost laughing in disbelief.“They granted the bail, right?”He leaned forward slightly, hopeful.“I knew it… once you got involved”His father didn’t sit.Didn’t respond.Didn’t even soften.Instead—He looked at Lucas like he was looking at a stranger.No.Worse.Like a problem.
Chapter 203
The Medical City stood like a promise of the future.Glass towers reflected the morning sun, while streams of professionals moved with purpose through its wide, polished entrances. It was more than just a hospital complex—it was ambition made real.And today—Adrian was finally there.The moment his car pulled in, word spread quickly.“He’s here…”“The chairman is back…”“It’s been a while…”Adrian stepped out, his presence calm but commanding, instantly shifting the atmosphere around him. Kai followed behind, hands casually in his pockets, observing everything with quiet interest.Inside the main building, a group of senior staff had already gathered.At the front stood Alistair Renford.A man of experience.Sharp eyes.Measured authority.The moment he saw Adrian, a faint smile crossed his face—but it carried weight.“Chairman Cole.”Adrian nodded slightly.“President Renford.”Alistair stepped forward, extending his hand. Adrian took it briefly, firm and professional.Then—Alistai

The mansion had finally returned to silence.No more chaos.No more collapsing formations.No more frozen time.Just stillness.But unlike before—This silence carried purpose.Inside his office, Adrian stood by the window, his gaze fixed on the city below. The night stretched endlessly, filled with lights and movement, a stark contrast to the battles that had unfolded in the shadows.Behind him—The door opened.He didn’t turn.He already knew who it was.Isabella Reyes walked in, her heels clicking softly against the floor. Her posture was as composed as ever, her presence sharp and grounded—completely different from the mystical chaos that had just passed.She didn’t speak immediately.Instead, she walked further into the room, placing a file neatly on the table.Then—She crossed her arms slightly.“It’s about time.”Adrian remained still.“…About what?”Her eyes narrowed slightly.“We stop entertaining chaos.”A pause.“And start focusing on what actually matters.”That made him
