No Wonder
It wasn't just Leo—dozens of camera flashes from the surrounding press swarmed the scene, capturing every second of Alan Foster's total ruin. News of his affair, evidence of his corruption, port authority bribery, and the street violence he orchestrated had already gone live across every major business news outlet in the country."M-Mr. Haugland... Dylan... this is all a huge misunderstanding!" Alan pressed his palms together, shaking violently as he practically crawled across the cold asphalt toward Dylan. The arrogance that once defined his face was gone, replaced by tears of pure panic. "Dylan! I'm sorry! I was wrong! Please, call off the press! I'll give you anything... money, stock, whatever you want! Please forgive me, Dylan!"Dylan looked down at the man whimpering at his feet without a trace of sympathy. Taking a slow breath, he wiped a speck of blood from his lip and spoke in a sharp, low whisper. "An apology will never undo what you did to Clarissa and her family. Enjoy the
Dylan’s True Identity
"Dylan... please," Clarissa whispered, her voice rasping as she gripped his fingers tightly. "Take me back to Alan."Dylan held her by the shoulders, his gaze sharp and unyielding. "Alan is using you. The moment you go back there, he isn't letting you or your parents go.""I'm begging you, Dylan!" Clarissa cried out, collapsing against his chest, her shoulders shaking violently with sobs. "I can't let my parents suffer because of my mistake. Alan is out of his mind! He'll do anything to my parents. Take me to him... please, hand me over to him right now!"Seeing the sheer desperation and agony breaking the woman he loved, the hard lines on Dylan's face slowly softened. His expression shifted into something unreadable and deep."Alright," Dylan said softly, gently wiping the tears from her cheeks. "If that's what you want, I'll take you to him."Hearing that, Clarissa wiped her face, turned on her heel, and hurried out toward the porch, steeling herself to head back to her parents' hou
Threatened
Alan refused to accept being treated like this. Driven to desperation, he resorted to extreme measures to force Clarissa back."Why... why are you doing this to us, Alan?" Mrs. Winter’s voice trembled, her gentle sob muffled against her husband’s shoulder. "Our families have always been close. How could you turn around and crush our business like this?""Blame your daughter for running off!" Alan shot back without an ounce of mercy. "If Clarissa hadn't acted so high-and-mighty and fled with that scumbag, I wouldn't have touched a single one of your family's assets!"Mr. Winter clenched his fists tightly, a storm of fury and helplessness raging in his chest. "This is entirely your own doing, Alan! Clarissa left because you cheated on her! You betrayed my daughter, and those videos of you with your personal assistant are everywhere! You destroyed your own reputation!""Shut up!" Alan barked, slamming his palm onto the glass coffee table so hard the sharp crack echoed through the entire
It Isn't Over Yet
High on the top floor of his corporate tower, Alan Foster stared at the confidential report in his hands with a vengeful smirk. Ever since Dylan had taken Clarissa, Alan felt humiliated—a stain on his pride he couldn't let stand.Intent on destroying Dylan and burning his startup's reputation to the ground, Alan launched an all-out assault."Initiate the first wave. Right now," Alan ordered coldly into his phone.Leveraging tens of millions of dollars alongside a network of corrupt political connections, Alan bribed port officials in Singapore, Rotterdam, and Panama. He circulated falsified manifests accusing Pacific Maritime's fleet of transporting illicit cargo—alleging it was made possible by critical vulnerabilities in the new security framework Dylan had engineered. Within hours, Pacific Maritime's global supply line ground to a halt.In a single morning, over forty massive container ships belonging to Pacific Maritime were impounded at international docks. High-tech raw material
Finish Things with Alan Foster!
For hours, Clarissa sat in the corner of the sofa, watching the slow tick of an antique wall clock while staring at Dylan's rigid back in front of the desk.The accumulating boredom finally brought her frustration to a boiling point. She stood up, marched over to his workstation, and without hesitation, slammed his laptop screen shut."Enough, Dylan!" Clarissa protested, crossing her arms over her chest. She glared down at him with unreserved annoyance. "You brought me all the way out to the middle of nowhere just so I could watch you stare at a monitor all day? I'm dying of boredom sitting inside this house!"Dylan froze for a moment. He glanced down at the closed laptop, then looked up at Clarissa's pouting, yet striking face. A faint, easy smile slowly touched his lips."You're right," Dylan said casually, standing up and grabbing two heavy jackets from the door rack. "Let's step out for a bit."They strolled out onto the sprawling green meadows surrounding the secluded countryside
Shameless
Panic rippled through the upper management of Foster Group. Inside the executive boardroom, redlined financial statements and charts showing caved-in stock values lay scattered across the long conference table. Alan Foster clenched his fists so hard his knuckles turned white. The catastrophic collapse of his corporate servers, the frozen credit lines, and the endless stream of leaked internal data over the last few hours had struck a lethal blow to his family's empire.Yet, amid the rubble, Alan’s cunning mind searched desperately for a way out."This isn't a random cyber attack," Alan snarled, his voice raspy as he addressed his father and their legal counsel gathered in the room. His eyes narrowed with pure venom. "This is Dylan! That lunatic not only breached our servers, but he kidnapped Clarissa!"Alan paced the floor, connecting the dots in his head. In Alan's eyes, Dylan was nothing more than a low-rent software engineer—a nobody without family backing or leverage, just an embi
