CHAPTER 108: Into the Depths
SPLASH!!!The ice-cold river water slammed into the chassis of the vehicle with catastrophic destructive force. The windshield, which had already fractured from the collision on the flyover, shattered completely in an instant. A torrent of murky, churning water surged into the cabin at a terrifying speed. Within seconds, the atmosphere underwater transformed into a silent horror.Samson was the first to regain full consciousness despite a severe, throbbing headache from the impact. As the dark water rapidly swallowed the cabin, rising to chest level, he could hear muffled coughing and suppressed screams of terror from Rose and Clara."Rose! Clara! Gopar!" Samson barked hoarsely, his throat choking on the encroaching water.Gopar was only semi-conscious in the driver's seat, fresh blood streaming from his forehead and blurring his vision. Meanwhile, in the middle row, Rose was frantically attempting to release Itari’s seatbelt, which had jammed because the vehicle's frame had buckled i
CHAPTER 107: Ambush at the Flyover
Richard rose from his chair, adjusting the collar of his suit jacket while looking at Rose with absolute confidence. "Tomorrow morning, my legal team will deliver an official demand for an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders to the board of commissioners. Get some rest tonight. The real battle begins tomorrow.""Thank you, Uncle," Rose replied sincerely.As they both stepped out of the boardroom back into the main suite, the atmosphere felt incredibly warm. Itari welcomed them with a much calmer smile, accompanied by Clara who remained faithfully by her side. In the corner of the room, near a massive window overlooking the glittering city, Samson stood as rigid as a cliffside boulder, his vigilant eyes continuously scanning the perimeter outside.Rose walked over to Samson. The moment the man turned his head, Rose offered him a subtle yet deeply meaningful smile."Is something wrong, Rose?" Samson asked in a low voice, instantly sensing the shift in her aura."I just made a
CHAPTER 106: The Power Vacuum
The exact second the live clarification broadcast concluded, Rose finally let out a long, heavy breath she had been holding for what felt like hours. Her limbs felt weak, yet an overwhelming sense of profound relief washed over her chest. She turned her head toward Itari, who was sitting directly beside her. Her stepmother was still sobbing softly, but the expression in her eyes was far more alive than it had ever been while she was locked away inside Baskoro's living hell."We did it," Rose whispered, encasing Itari's hand in a tight, reassuring grip.Itari turned to Rose and instantly pulled the younger woman into a fierce embrace. "Thank you, Rose. I honestly don't know... if you hadn't helped me, I might have committed suicide because I simply couldn't endure it anymore. Thank you for pulling me out of that hell," Itari wept against her shoulder.A gentle smile touched Rose's lips, and she extended both arms to pat Itari’s back. For the first time in her life, she experienced a st
CHAPTER 105: The Shockwave
In a lavish penthouse suite on the highest floor of the Arunika Hotel, Baskoro hurled a crystal glass against the wall, shattering it into a thousand flying fragments.Crash!"Idiots!" he roared, his voice thick with unbridled fury.The two men clad in black suits standing before him immediately lowered their heads, their postures rigid with tension."How could they possibly slip away and make contact with Richard?!" Baskoro’s voice echoed violently throughout the room."Forgive us, Sir," one of the men replied nervously, his voice trembling. "Richard’s security details had secured every single access point to the building before our operatives could even arrive."Baskoro’s jaw set into a hard, rigid line.On the massive television screen mounted on the wall, the news broadcast concerning Itari continued to play on an endless loop."ITARI ROSALINA ALLEGEDLY INVOLVED IN AN ILLICIT AFFAIR WITH A BODYGUARD!"Yet, far from looking satisfied, Baskoro appeared even more enraged. The initial
CHAPTER 104: Counter-Offensive
"Insolent bastards!" Clara hissed, her jaw clenching hard.Samson snatched the phone from Clara’s hand and scanned the article rapidly. The headline was plastered in massive bold letters across various gossip portals and online news outlets."ITARI ROSALINA ALLEGEDLY HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH HER HUSBAND'S OWN BODYGUARD!!!"Right beneath the headline was a photo of Samson carrying Itari the previous night. It was a shot clearly taken surreptitiously from a distance.Samson’s gaze instantly turned glacial. "They moved quickly," he murmured in a dangerously low tone.Rose scrolled through the other articles, and the more she read, the paler her face became. "They’ve already launched a preemptive strike," she whispered.Embedded within the article was a video of Itari’s biological father weeping in front of the camera."My daughter has been unruly since she was a child," the old man claimed in the video. "She always craves attention. Mr. Baskoro was incredibly generous to help our family, bu
CHAPTER 103: A Daughter's Choice
Rose froze. Samson's sharp, piercing question seemed to slice through the heavy silence of the villa, hitting her right in the chest.She looked at the cracked medicine bottle in Samson’s hand, then shifted her gaze to Itari, whose shoulders were still trembling from weeping. For years, Rose had built a wall of cynicism, believing that her father, Baskoro, was simply a harsh and demanding man who was difficult to please. But tonight, that illusion shattered completely.He wasn't just a harsh father. He was a monster who systematically destroyed the people around him."Rose?" Samson called out softly, his voice dropping its dangerous edge, replaced by a rare touch of gentleness as he observed her pale face.Rose drew a deep, ragged breath, her hands trembling slightly before she tightly clenched them into fists. When she raised her head, the habitual mask of the cold, unyielding director of Roseland Corp was firmly back in place, though her eyes glinted with a mix of pain and fury."I
