The warehouse doors burst open with a thunderous crash as the Solomon family's private helicopter touched down outside.
Mona was the first through the entrance, her designer heels clicking against the concrete floor.
"Frank! Frank, where are you?" Mona's voice echoed through the dim space, filled with desperate concern.
Terry, Melissa, Sarah, and Emma rushed in behind her, their faces etched with worry and panic.
"My baby!" Melissa cried out, scanning the warehouse frantically. "Frank, answer me!"
From the shadows near some shipping containers, Frank's weak voice called out, "Here... I'm here..."
The family rushed toward the sound, their footsteps echoing in the cavernous space. They found Frank slumped against a wall, his hands loosely bound behind him, a small cut on his arm that he'd made with a shard of glass.
"Oh my God, Frank!" Mona dropped to her knees beside him, her hands trembling as she examined his condition.
"I've been cut," Frank whispered, his voice deliberately weak and shaky. "They... they hurt me..."
Melissa let out a blood-curdling scream. "My precious boy! What did those monsters do to you?"
Terry immediately began untying Frank's bonds with shaking hands. "Son, we're here now. You're safe."
"Frank, stay with us," Sarah said, tears streaming down her face. "We're going to get you to a hospital right away."
Emma was already on her phone. "I'm calling for immediate medical evacuation. Frank needs emergency care!"
They're all here, Harry thought through his haze of pain. But not for me. Never for me.
From his chair twenty feet away, Harry tried to speak, blood bubbling from his lips. "Help..." he whispered, but his voice was barely audible.
Mona's head turned slightly at the sound. She frowned when she spotted Harry tied to the chair, blood pooling beneath him.
"Why is Harry here too?" Mona asked, her voice filled with confusion and annoyance rather than concern.
Frank, still playing his role perfectly, looked weakly in Harry's direction. "They... they took both of us. Harry might be injured too. Why don't you... why don't you save him then?"
The family barely glanced at Harry before dismissing him entirely.
"Oh please," Sarah scoffed, not even bothering to look at Harry properly. "He's probably just faking it for attention. You know how dramatic he gets."
"Classic Harry," Emma added with disgust. "Even during Frank's crisis, he has to make it about himself."
Terry's voice was sharp with irritation. "We don't have time for Harry's theatrics. Frank is the priority here."
"Frank is barely conscious," Melissa said, cradling Frank's head in her lap. "Harry can wait. Frank needs immediate medical attention."
I'm dying, Harry thought desperately, watching his blood continue to flow. Can't they see I'm actually dying?
"Help... please..." Harry managed to croak out, louder this time.
Mona glanced at him with cold indifference. "Harry, stop being so selfish. Can't you see Frank is the one who's really hurt here?"
"Look at that cut on Frank's arm," Sarah said, pointing dramatically. "He could have bled to death!"
Emma nodded vigorously. "Frank's heart condition makes any injury ten times more dangerous. Harry is perfectly healthy—he can handle a few scratches."
The rescue team from the helicopter entered the warehouse, carrying a medical stretcher and emergency equipment.
"Where's the patient?" the lead medic called out.
"Here!" Melissa waved frantically. "My son Frank needs immediate evacuation!"
The medics rushed to Frank's side, quickly assessing his minor cut and fake weakness.
"We need to get him to the helicopter now," the lead medic announced. "Time is critical."
As they carefully lifted Frank onto the stretcher, Terry looked around the warehouse dismissively.
"There's only room for one patient in the helicopter," Terry announced coldly. "Frank goes first. Harry can wait for the next transport."
"But father—" Harry tried to speak, blood now flowing freely from his mouth.
"But nothing," Melissa snapped without even looking at him. "Frank is dying, Harry. Stop being so dramatic and let us save your brother."
"Frank's heart condition makes this an emergency," Sarah added. "You're young and strong—you can wait."
Emma nodded in agreement. "Besides, you probably just got a few bumps and bruises. Frank actually looks pale and weak."
They're choosing Frank again, Harry realized with crushing finality. Even as I bleed to death, they're choosing Frank.
The medical team began wheeling Frank toward the exit, the entire Solomon family following closely behind like devoted servants.
As they reached the warehouse entrance, Frank turned his head slightly toward Harry. For just a moment, when no one else was looking, Frank's mask of pain slipped away.
He gave Harry a slow, triumphant smile—cold, calculating, and utterly victorious.
He's won, Harry thought numbly. He's finally won everything.
The family disappeared through the warehouse doors, their worried voices fading as they accompanied Frank to the helicopter. Within minutes, the sound of rotor blades filled the air as the aircraft lifted off, carrying Frank to safety and medical care.
Harry was left alone in the dark warehouse, still tied to the chair, his life slowly draining away through the knife wound in his abdomen.
This is how I die, Harry thought, his vision blurring. Alone, forgotten, abandoned by the people who were supposed to love me.
The warehouse fell silent except for the sound of Harry's labored breathing and the steady drip of his blood hitting the concrete floor.
Through a broken window, Harry caught sight of something beautiful—a shooting star streaking across the night sky, bright and brilliant against the darkness.
If only, Harry thought as his consciousness began to fade. If only I had another chance... I would never return to the Solomon family hell again. I would never try to win their love. I would never believe their lies.
The shooting star disappeared, and Harry's eyes slowly closed as darkness claimed him.
I wish... I wish I could start over...

CHAPTER 200
Harry stood there for a long moment, watching her life slip away. It would be so easy to let nature take its course. To let this monster finally face the consequences of her evil.But Harry wasn't a killer.He placed his hand on her chest again and gave her just enough healing energy to stabilize her—enough that her heart would keep beating, enough that she'd survive to face trial. But no more than that. He left her weak, in pain, suffering from the cancer that was eating her alive."You'll live," Harry said coldly. "Long enough to stand trial. Long enough for the world to know exactly what you did. Long enough to spend your final months in a prison cell, reviled by everyone."Eleanor's eyes filled with tears—whether from relief or despair, Harry couldn't tell and didn't care.Police flooded the warehouse—legitimate officers this time, coordinated by Victoria and accompanied by federal agents. Eleanor Vance was immediately arrested, read her rights, and taken into custody under heavy
Chapter 199
Harry moved closer to the elderly woman, his eyes locked on hers. She tensed immediately, thinking he might attack, but instead he simply placed his hand on her chest—right over her heart."What are you doing?" she demanded, trying to pull away.But Harry's grip was iron. His hand stayed firmly in place, unmovable."Ensuring you can't press that dead man's switch," Harry said calmly.He closed his eyes and concentrated, channeling his healing energy into her body. He could feel her heart beating beneath his palm—weak, irregular, damaged by the cancer eating through her organs. The rhythm was erratic, struggling.Harry poured energy into it, strengthening the muscle, regulating the beat, forcing vitality into dying tissue.Then he did something he'd never attempted before. He linked his life force to hers, creating a connection that would sustain her heart as long as he maintained his concentration.The woman's eyes widened as she felt the connection snap into place. "What... what did
Chapter 198
Just when Harry thought he might actually lose this fight, the eastern wall of the warehouse exploded inward with a deafening blast.Smoke and debris filled the air. Through the chaos, Victoria's security force poured in—not just regular guards, but professional military contractors in full tactical gear.And leading them, wearing body armor and carrying a rifle, was Alice."Nobody touches my boyfriend!" Alice shouted, firing at the mercenaries nearest to Harry.Alfred was right behind her, along with Gage and a dozen volunteers from TechNova who'd armed themselves and demanded to help. Even Lydia Chen was there with a camera crew, documenting everything."If we're going down, we're taking The Consortium's crimes on film with us!" Lydia shouted, her cameraman capturing the battle.The tide shifted immediately. Victoria's contractors were professional soldiers—well-equipped, well-trained, and absolutely ruthless. They engaged The Consortium's mercenaries with devastating efficiency.Ha
Chapter 197
Harry walked into the warehouse exactly at the appointed time. The building was massive—a former shipping facility with a ceiling that disappeared into darkness above. Industrial lights had been set up, creating harsh pools of illumination in the vast emptiness.The space had been completely cleared out. No equipment. No boxes. Just bare concrete floor stretching in every direction.In the center, under the brightest spotlights, sat a single chair.Lily was tied to it, her head slumped forward, unconscious but breathing. Harry's danger sense confirmed she was alive, but drugged.Surrounding her in a wide circle were at least thirty armed mercenaries in tactical gear, weapons trained on Harry the moment he entered."Lily!" Harry started forward, but the sound of guns cocking stopped him."I wouldn't," a familiar voice called out.Marcus Thornfield emerged from the shadows at the far end of the warehouse. But he wasn't alone.Three other figures walked out with him—clearly people of imp
CHAPTER 196 PART 2
When police sirens finally wailed in the distance, the mercenaries' leader made a decision. "Extract! Fall back!"But Harry wasn't letting them escape so easily. He grabbed two mercenaries and held them until police arrived.The remaining mercenaries tried to fight their way out, firing on police officers—which only made things worse for The Consortium's narrative. Armored vehicles arrived. A standoff ensued.Harry, meanwhile, raised his hands and peacefully surrendered to police. "I'm Harry Solomon. I'm unarmed. These men attacked me."The contrast was stark and captured on live television: Harry surrendering peacefully while The Consortium's mercenaries fought violently against law enforcement.By dawn, six mercenaries were in custody. DNA tests, ordered by a federal judge who was one of Victoria's allies, revealed what Harry had claimed all along—genetic modifications. Enhanced muscle density. Accelerated healing factors. Chemical alterations to their neurological systems.The Cons
CHAPTER 196 PART 1
Harry stood in Victoria's security command center, studying maps of the city with a small team of analysts. He'd spent the past day formulating a plan—not to hide, but to attack."The Consortium thinks I'm on the defensive," Harry said. "They expect me to keep running, keep hiding. So we're going to do the opposite.""What are you proposing?" Victoria asked."A trap," Harry replied. "But one where I'm the bait. We leak information through channels we know The Consortium monitors. Make them think I'll be somewhere vulnerable, somewhere they can grab me without witnesses.""You want them to attack you," Alice realized. "Harry, that's insane.""It's strategic," Harry corrected. "Right now, public opinion is divided about whether The Consortium's enhanced soldiers even exist. So we're going to prove they exist by forcing them into the open."Victoria smiled coldly. "And you'll make sure there are cameras to record everything.""Exactly," Harry confirmed.They selected a location carefully
