Meanwhile, at the Schwarzenger estate, Aaron Kellyman stealthily moved behind the tall pine trees in the garden, feeling overly confident that he wasn’t being seen or followed. Unbeknownst to him, two guards from the SHADOW secret team, which Elijah had instructed the lead guard to assemble, were trailing him just a few meters behind, monitoring his every move. Completely unaware that the Schwarzenger guards’ uniforms were equipped with implanted listening devices, Aaron discreetly pulled out an unauthorized smartphone from his inner underwear and dialled a number. “It looks like he’s using a phone while on duty,” one of the SHADOW guards muttered, furrowing his brow as he tried to identify what Aaron was holding. The other guard nodded and concluded that what Aaron had was indeed a phone. “The scum imposter probably hasn’t realized that all the other guards, except him, use only 'SCHWARXX'—the only approved smartphone made by the authority.” As he spoke, Aaron instinctively turn

It was the next morning at the Aviatux plush estate. It seemed like a normal day—one might expect things to feel different due to Damien Aviatux’s absence, but it was just like any other Monday.With Skarr as the head of all staff departments in the estate, every member of the staff—including the guards, chefs, and sanitary workers—dared not waste time in carrying out their duties professionally.After thoroughly inspecting everything that morning to ensure everything was in place for his new boss, the acting CEO Eddie Aviatux, to begin his day meaningfully and enjoyably, Skarr headed to his room."Click."Skarr pressed the bell in front of Eddie’s room, and Eddie responded from inside."Chill, Skarr. I know the perfect time to leave for school," Eddie groaned as he opened the door and stepped out."I’m sorry for being too forward, Master," Skarr said, bowing before respectfully gesturing toward the hallway. Eddie took the lead, and Skarr followed behind him."Everything is all set, s

The sun hung lazily in the sky, casting warm hues over the city as Kai powered down his workstation. Another day spent fixing viruses, recovering data, and convincing customers their computers weren’t possessed. He rolled his shoulders and stretched, ready to head home to a quiet evening. Locking up the shop, Kai stepped onto the sidewalk. The buzz of the city greeted him—car horns, chattering pedestrians, the distant hum of a street performer’s guitar. As he turned a corner toward the nearby park, two young voices pierced the air. “You ripped it!” “No, you’re lying! You broke it first!” Kai’s brow furrowed as he followed the noise to the source: two boys, no older than ten, wrestling over the remains of a torn kite. The colorful fabric flapped pitifully in the breeze, a casualty of their heated argument. “Hey, what’s going on here?” Kai asked, stepping between them. The boys stopped, their hands still gripping opposite ends of the kite. Both looked up at him, their faces flushe

"What's that?" Eddie glanced at him questioningly. "Stop beating yourself up over her. She’s not worth it. Focus on what’s ahead, man. You’ve got too much potential to waste it on someone who didn’t appreciate you." Eddie let out a heavy sigh, feeling a small flicker of hope stir within him. "Thanks, Phil," he said, his voice steadier this time. "Thanks for always being there for me, I hope I will have the power to also be there for you in the nearest future." "That’s what I’m here for, Now, let’s get some sleep. Tomorrow’s another lecture day," Phil replied with a grin as he beat Eddie's chest playfully, "and remember, Mrs Patricia, the vice chancellor herself promised your departments an ‘early in the morning’ session. You don’t want to be late." As Phil settled into his bed, Eddie lay awake for a while longer, Phil’s words echoing in his mind before sleep finally shut his eyes. The next morning, Eddie woke to find Phil not around, but he paid it little mind. Their schedules

Sarah’s hand trembled as she clutched her purse, the cheerful ringtone a stark contrast to the icy dread coiling in her stomach. Gathering courage from some hidden reserve, she turned back to face the most powerful man in the country."But... it's my husband," she firmly retorted. "Our conversations should be private and confidential to only both of us."A wave of derisive laughter erupted from Elijah's guards. Bartholomew, in particular, threw his head back with a booming laugh. "Look at this woman!" he mocked, wiping a tear from the corner of his eye.Sarah’s jaw tightened with shame as the public humiliation unfolded with a burning sting. "There's nothing funny in what I said, sir," she stated, her gaze fixed on only Elijah. "Can I please go?"Elijah’s lips curved into a teasing, almost playful smile. "Even if I insist?" he asked, his tone light but carrying an unmistakable weight of authority.Just as he spoke, the ringing from her purse stopped, plunging the courtyard back into a
