Chapter 63: Chloe's Vain Boast
The small silver clutch purse lay completely still on the white marble floorboards, its glittering rhinestones reflecting the bright light of the hotel chandeliers.Chloe stared at Leo Sterling, her breathing coming in short, panicked gasps.But as she looked closer at his simple black leather jacket and his plain dark trousers, the initial wave of paralyzing terror inside her chest slowly began to melt away.She remembered that they were no longer in the capital city. They were in Oakhaven, a completely different territory ruled by the multi billionaire oligarchs of the Global Commerce Council.Leo did not have his grand military trucks here. He did not have his large army of Vanguard soldiers backing him up in this foreign lobby.A sharp, nasty laugh suddenly burst out of Chloe’s mouth, her face changing from a pale green back to a proud, arrogant pink. The public face slapping drama was just starting, and her deep, wicked vanity made her completely lose her mind.Oh, I get it now,
Chapter 62: The Secret Flight
The red legal document on the digital screen gleamed under the luxury lights of the eastern office.Lord Harrington blew another thick cloud of grey cigar smoke, his face twisting into a proud, wicked smile.You have exactly twenty four hours to sign over fifty percent of your entire Sterling Empire to the Global Commerce Council, Leo. If you refuse, my cartel will ensure your five hundred luxury malls remain completely empty forever. You will be a king of nothing.The digital screen instantly went completely black as the connection cut off.Director Christian wiped the thick drops of cold sweat from his pale forehead, his knees knocking together from pure, paralyzing terror.My Lord, what do we do? If the GCC blocks our international trade for one more day, our stock values will plunge straight into the dirt. The foreign markets are already laughing at us.Leo Sterling slowly picked up his tablet from the mahogany desk, his face perfectly calm and smooth like cold glass. He did not s
Chapter 61: The Foreign Threat
The rough voice of the vanguard captain faded away into the quiet air of the master bedroom, leaving behind a thick layer of heavy silence.Supreme Commander Logan slowly lowered the tactical radio from his belt, his massive face turning completely dark like a storm cloud. He looked at Leo Sterling, waiting for the young commander to give the word to deploy the heavy border tanks.Arthur Sterling stepped forward, his newly healed body shaking slightly with a fresh wave of deep anxiety. The Forbidden Elder? Arthur whispered, his voice cracking with fear as he clutched the edge of the wooden bedpost.Leo, that old man is a shadow ghost. He controls the hidden judges of the High Council. If his secret army has crossed the river line, we are facing a total war that can burn the entire capital city to the ground.Leo Sterling did not show a single ounce of panic. He stood perfectly straight in his pure white Sovereign dress uniform, his twenty diamond and ruby medals glittering brightly un
Chapter 60: The Final Judgment
The three chief state prosecutors marched into the ruined bedroom, their heavy leather shoes clicking sharply against the broken wood floorboards.Their dark gray suits were perfectly pressed, and the official gold scales of justice badges pinned to their coats shone brightly under the yellow lamps.They did not spare a single glance at the weeping Beatrice Sterling, who was still pinned flat to the floor tiles by Supreme Commander Logan’s heavy leather boot.The high suspense inside the grand medical suite peaked instantly. Beatrice’s breathing came in short, desperate wheezes. The presence of the supreme high court prosecutors meant her legal tricks were completely dead.Chief Prosecutor Harris stepped forward, bowing his head at a perfect ninety degree angle toward Leo Sterling. Supreme Sovereign, we have fully processed the audio file and the bank records, Harris announced firmly, his voice booming with absolute legal power.The evidence of premeditated murder, long term poisoning
Chapter 59: Expelled from the Bloodline
Arthur Sterling stood tall and strong on the polished floorboards, his long shadow completely covering Beatrice’s shivering body.His thick, wrinkled finger pointed directly at her pale face like a loaded gun.The intense fire in his dark eyes was so bright it made Beatrice gasp for air, her hands clutching her expensive red silk gown as she wallowed on her knees in pure, paralyzing terror.You thieving snake, Arthur roared, his deep voice booming through the grand medical suite like a sudden thunderclap. You thought your cheap poisons could keep me in that bed forever. You thought you could use my weak hand to sign away the core trust fund of my ancestors. Look at me. I am alive, and your wicked game is officially finished.Beatrice’s face turned a sickening shade of pale green as the public face slapping humiliation washed over her entire body. She tried to lift her chin, her voice cracking into a high, pathetic pitch as she scrambled for a final lie to save her skin.Arthur, my lov
Chapter 58: The True Antidote
Beatrice Sterling’s frantic screams echoed sharply against the walls of the ruined medical suite. Her voice cracked into a high, ugly pitch as she pressed her spine against the heavy wooden desk.Look at me, Leo. I am still your legal stepmother. The family law protects my status in this house. You cannot just march in here with your soldiers and touch a single hair on my head. The courts will throw you in jail for treating me like a criminal.Leo Sterling stood completely still, his majestic white Sovereign uniform glowing brightly under the yellow bedroom lamps. He did not show a single drop of anger, and his sharp face remained as smooth as cold glass.The public face slapping humiliation of hearing a wicked thief scream about the law made a tiny, freezing smile appear on his lips.You talk about the law, Beatrice, Leo said smoothly, his voice dropping to a freezing temperature that made the entire room turn quiet. You used slow acting poison on my biological father for five long y
