Chapter 165
Mr. Richard’s heart pounded as they followed The Reaper’s lieutenant through corridors he’d never seen before.They passed through the main cellblock, where inmates pressed against their bars to watch the strange procession.Finally, they reached a section Mr. Richard had never seen in his three weeks here—a maintenance area filled with pipes and electrical panels. The walls were older here, made of crumbling brick instead of concrete.“Where… where is this place?” Dr. Williams whispered nervously to Mr. Richard, his voice barely audible.“I’m as confused as you are,” Mr. Richard whispered back, his eyes darting around the unfamiliar surroundings.But they dared not ask The Reaper or his gang members.Suddenly, The Reaper stopped at what looked like a maintenance closet door. To Mr. Richard’s amazement, the heavy steel door swung open to reveal a dark staircase leading downward.They descended into what seemed like an underground tunnel. The air grew cooler and damper with each step
Chapter 164
In the prison yard of Western River Correctional Facility, surrounded by high barbed wire fences and guard towers, Mr. Richard lay curled on the ground. His expensive suit had been replaced by an orange jumpsuit that was now torn and stained with dirt and blood.“Look at the big shot now!” One of the inmates sneered, delivering another kick to Mr. Richard’s ribs.He gasped, spitting blood onto the dusty ground. Three weeks ago, he had been sitting in Heritage Club’s Private Lounge with a few others, all of whom were now inmates like him in one of the country’s most dangerous prisons.Dr. Williams cowered nearby, his face swollen beyond recognition.Mr. Thompson pressed his back against the chain-link fence, trying to make himself invisible as two more inmates approached him with cruel grins.“Please,” Mr. Richard wheezed, struggling to breathe. "We can pay you. Whatever you want.”The lead inmate, a man with a spider web tattoo covering his neck, laughed harshly. “Pay us? You ain’t

At Magnus' mansion, Ethan sat comfortably on the balcony in one of the plush outdoor chairs, his phone in his hand. On the screen, a viral video played showing Vanessa being dragged out of Copper Group.In the video, the security guard had a firm grip on Vanessa’s arm as she struggled against him. Her expensive dress was wrinkled, her perfect hair now messy from fighting. She kicked and screamed, her high heels scraping against the marble floor of the lobby. Her expression was filled with desperation and humiliation as shocked employees gathered around. Some even pulled out their phones to record her humiliating moment, completely ignoring her pleas for them to stop.The satisfying sight made his lips curl into a satisfactory smile.After watching the video for the third time, he scrolled through the internet. She was trending in every headline."CALLUM CONSTRUCTION HEIRESS DRAGGED OUT OF COPPER GROUP LIKE TRASH”"VANESSA CALLUM’S DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO SEDUCE CHAIRMAN BACKFIRES SP

Vanessa knew she couldn’t let this chance pass her by. Now that Damian was the chairman of Copper Group, it could really help out Callum Construction.She had to give this her best shot.She put on a sweet smile. “Why would you say something like that in front of your secretary? That really hurt my feelings.”She started walking toward him again, moving her hips as she got closer.She ran her hand along the edge of his shirt and leaned against him.“Was this because of what happened last time we saw each other?” she whispered, pressing her body against his chest. "Come on, couples fight sometimes. But they always work things out. That’s why I’m here.”“Besides…” she said slowly, “Everything I said and did that day was just to help you see things clearly.“Her fingers played with his tie as she spoke. “I forgot to bring a gift to congratulate you on your success, but I can make it up to you with some breathtaking sex.”She whispered the last part directly into his ear,
Chapter 161
The person was no other than Vanessa.She was wearing a tight red dress that hugged every curve of her body. The dress was short, showing off her smooth legs, and the neckline dipped low enough to catch any man’s attention. Her long dark hair fell over one shoulder in perfect waves.She sat on the edge of the large table with one leg elegantly crossed over the other, her high heels dangling from her toes, like she owned the room.As she saw Damian, she flipped her hair back with a slow, deliberate motion and smiled.“Hey honey,” she said, her voice soft and sweet like honey.It was as if she had known that Damian would open the door any moment.Mr. Lorenzo’s jaw slackened the instant he saw her. His throat worked once, then twice, before he forced himself to swallow and stand straighter.“Uh… Mr. Hayes,” he stammered, his eyes darting between Damian and Vanessa. "I think I should… I have some urgent calls to make. The board meeting follow-ups, you know.”He cleared his throat awkw

And yes… Jessica had her own reason.She had grown up hearing Magnus' name whispered like a prayer in her household.Her parents, both small business owners who’d scraped together every penny to build their modest house, had worshipped him from afar."Look at him,” her father would say, pointing at Forbes articles plastered on their refrigerator. "That’s what real success looks like, Jess. That’s the kind of person you should aspire to be.”For years, she had tried. She’d studied his interviews, analyzed his strategies, and even wrote her college thesis on his business model.She’d genuinely believed he was some kind of genius, some untouchable force of nature who deserved all the praise the world threw at him.But everything changed when he destroyed their neighborhood.The government had awarded his construction company, Aurelius Construction Group, a contract to tear down their homes for a new development project.Even though the residents fought against it and protested, he went
