TEN PERCENT OF HORIZON TECHNOLOGIES
The company entrance gradually returned to its usual rhythm after Xavier's car disappeared into the traffic.The employees who had gathered to watch the confrontation quietly dispersed, though the occasional whisper still drifted through the lobby."Did Mr. Lancaster really slap Miss Selene?""I've worked here for five years. I never thought I'd live to see something like this.""Did you hear what he said? Mr. George tried to frame Miss Kate.""The surveillance cameras recorded everything. If Mr. Lancaster hadn't mentioned them, Mr. George would've gotten away with it.""I always thought Mr. Lancaster spoiled Miss Selene too much... but today he didn't back down at all.”"What man could tolerate his own wife constantly choosing another man over her husband? After all, he's only human.”"Something has definitely changed… That wasn't the Xavier Lancaster we all knew.""Whatever happened between them, Horizon Technologies isn't going to be peaceful anymore.”No one dared speak too loudly
THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS
"Boss... are you really alright?"Kate finally broke the silence inside the car after they had driven several blocks away from Horizon Technologies.The bustling morning traffic flowed steadily outside the windows, but the atmosphere inside the vehicle remained strangely quiet. She stole another glance at Xavier, still unable to believe everything she had witnessed at the company entrance.In the three years she had worked beside him, Xavier had always been calm, patient, and willing to endure every grievance without complaint.Today's Xavier was completely different.He had slapped George without the slightest hesitation.He had even slapped Selene.Most importantly… He had stood in front of her without caring about the consequences.Xavier kept both hands on the steering wheel as he calmly replied, "I'm fine."Kate lowered her eyes to the cardboard box resting on her lap. "Boss... thank you.""You don't have to thank me.""I do." Her voice carried genuine sincerity. "If you hadn't a
THE CAMERAS NEVER LIE
"What do you think you are doing at my company?"Selene hurriedly stepped in front of George, shielding him with her own body just like always as if he were the victim. Her furious gaze locked onto Xavier, while George seized the opportunity to hide behind her, his swollen cheeks making him appear especially pitiful."Are you hurt?" Selene's voice softened the instant she turned toward George.George forced a weak smile despite the burning pain on his face."I-I'm alright, Sister Selene." He lowered his head as though trying to avoid causing trouble. "Brother Xavier probably misunderstood me again. Please don't blame him."Kate clenched her fists.Even after witnessing George receive two slaps, he still hadn't forgotten to play the innocent victim.Selene gently touched the bright red handprints on George's face, her eyes filling with anger."He hit you like this, and you're still speaking up for him?"George sighed quietly. "I don't want the two of you to argue because of me."He pau
YOU'VE MISTAKEN MY PATIENCE AS WEAKNESS
"Brother Xavier... you've misunderstood."George forced a smile that looked uglier than a grimace as he instinctively rubbed his aching chest. The fear from nearly being run over still lingered in his eyes, but he refused to let the employees around him see it."I wasn't trying to hurt Miss Kate," he explained hurriedly. "She refused to leave the company after being dismissed. I only asked security to escort her away. I was just helping maintain order."Xavier stood motionless. His expression remained unreadable.Instead of responding immediately, his gaze shifted toward the two security guards standing nearby.The pressure in his eyes alone made both men lower their heads."I'll ask you one question," Xavier spoke calmly. "Answer honestly. If you dare lie to me, don't blame me for whatever happens next."The older guard swallowed nervously. "Mr. Lancaster...""Did Miss Wilson cause any trouble after she was dismissed?"The two guards exchanged uneasy glances before the older one fina
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
The headquarters of Horizon Technologies stood proudly in the heart of the city's financial district, its towering glass exterior reflecting the brilliant morning sunlight. Employees moved in and out of the revolving doors as they began another busy workday, completely unaware that the calmness around them would turn into chaos very soon.Near the company entrance, Kate Wilson stood quietly with a cardboard box clutched tightly against her chest. Inside were the few personal belongings the security guards had allowed her to take after escorting her out of the building. Every few moments, she glanced anxiously toward the road, hoping Xavier would arrive soon, though she couldn't help wondering whether he would be able to help at all after being suspended himself.While she was lost in thought, the sound of footsteps approached from behind.George walked out from the company lobby accompanied by two security guards. The smile on his face widened the moment he spotted Kate still stand
THREE MONTHS UNTIL THE END
“Finally... the first step toward making my rebirth count is complete!” Xavier let out a satisfied smile as he stepped out of the restaurant, the signed agreement safely tucked inside the document case in his hand while the afternoon sun bathed the city in a warm golden glow. The streets remained as lively as ever. Office workers hurried along the sidewalks with takeaway coffees in their hands, vehicles flowed steadily through the busy intersections, and the laughter of children echoed from a nearby park. Everything seemed perfectly normal, but only he knew how drastically the world would change in just three months. Two hundred million dollars was undoubtedly a fortune, but it wasn't enough to stop the apocalypse. Xavier slowly lifted his gaze toward the skyline. Even after being reborn, he knew he couldn't change what was about to happen…. He knew exactly how the apocalypse would begin. He knew the enhancement serum developed by Genesis Bioengineering Group would mutate dur
