Ethan sat in the living room waiting for Jessica to come in, wondering what the reason for her visit could be.The door finally opened, and Theo stepped inside, gesturing for her to come in.She walked in with the confidence of someone who belonged everywhere she went.Her hair was pulled back, her sharp eyes scanning the room before landing on Ethan.The moment their gazes met, Ethan’s expression hardened.“How did you know I was here?” he demanded, his voice cold and clipped.She said nothing.Instead, she walked further into the room and sat down on the leather sofa across from him.Ethan’s jaw tightened, his eyes flashing with barely contained anger.But he said nothing.He simply turned his head toward Theo and gave him a single nod.Theo understood immediately and left the room, closing the door quietly behind him.Now it was just the two of them.Ethan took a slow breath as the silence stretched, forcing himself to stay calm.“I’ll ask you again,” he said, his voice low.“How d

Adrian smirked, watching the confusion spread across Ethan’s face."It seems, my dear nephew, that you still haven't figured out my true endgame in all this." Adrian leaned forward, his expression shifting to something almost earnest.His voice dropped to a whisper. "Let me be clear, Ethan. My exact reason for appearing now and making that revelation was to make sure you, and the world, knew exactly who Magnus was. To open your eyes to the monster he is.""And what now that I knew and believed it before your damn interview?”Ethan sighed as he leaned forward.His eyes burnt with frustration. “So get to the point. I’m not interested in you beating around the bush.”Adrian smiled as he leaned back, seemingly unfazed by Ethan’s outburst.“The Order,” he said slowly, “has been our family’s legacy for generations. What possible benefit would it be to me if I exposed it to the world?” He shook his head. “Only a bastard would would destroy his own bloodline's purpose. And I'm clearly not on

Ethan’s gaze stayed on Adrian, unreadable but sharp enough to slice through the silence."Please, save the theatrics, Adrian. I'm not here for a family reunion." Ethan finally spoke, his voice flat and devoid of warmth.Adrian's smirk faltered, his expression shifting to one of genuine disappointment."Oh," he muttered, shaking his head."So that's it? Is this how you react, Ethan? The first time you see your long-lost uncle as an adult? Not even a hug? Or perhaps a simple 'I'm glad you're alive' or 'welcome back?'"He sighed. "How truly disappointing. Or maybe—” he tilted his head, his tone dipping lower, “are you disappointed I’m alive?"Ethan didn't reply.Instead, he sat down back.Adrian took the hint and sighed before striding across the polished floor to sit opposite Ethan.He took a deep breath, folding his hands on his knee as his gaze locked onto Ethan. "I'm meant to offer you something, Ethan. A drink, perhaps.Adrian studied Ethan for a moment before speaking again."But j

The moment Ethan stepped through the door, Theo was there, falling into step beside him immediately.“My Lord, What did you find out?” Theo asked.Ethan didn’t turn. He kept walking, his pace steady, his mind already moving ahead."That you were wrong,” he said flatly. "She didn’t know Adrian was alive.”He glanced at Theo briefly. "And before you say it—before you even think about suggesting I shouldn’t trust her words again—don’t. I mean it, Theo. Don’t.”Theo fell silent, nodding slowly.“So what do we do now?” he asked as they climbed the stairs leading out of the block.As they walked through the long hallway, Ethan scrolled through his phone and dialed a number.“Nicolas,” Ethan said without preamble the moment the line clicked. "Text me your location immediately after this call. I’m going to meet you there within the next thirty minutes to an hour."“And this meeting needs to be discreet. Completely off the radar. No one should known about it. Not even your security. So, hand
Chapter 276
This facility had once been The Order’s greatest secret. It was built underground beneath what used to be an abandoned government building, serving as a prison for people the law could not touch. Criminals too powerful, too connected, too dangerous to be held in regular prisons. The Order’s army used to guard it, armed soldiers stationed at every entrance, watching every move.But that was before the soldiers abandoned their posts after the army stopped serving The Order when everything fell apart.Now only a handful of guards remained, whom Theo had stationed here when Ethan had fallen apart after learning the truth about his father. This was the only functioning prison facility left in the country. The others, spread across different continents, had stopped operating years ago.Ethan sat across from Elara at a metal table in the middle of the interrogation room.The flickering lights above cast soft shadows on the cracked walls.Her wrists were chained to the table. Her once-glo
