Two days later, Roscoe lay in a hospital bed, looking far different from the confident and dominant man he had been.

The room was quiet except for the steady beeping of the machines monitoring his condition.

A drip set was attached to his arm, slowly delivering fluids and medication to help him recover.

Roscoe’s face was pale, and every movement seemed to cause him pain. He winced as he shifted slightly, trying to find a more comfortable position.

The sharp pain in his side was a constant reminder of Romeo’s unexpected skill, the surprising blow that didn't only knocked him out, but partially paralyzed him.

He couldn’t stop thinking about how easily he had been defeated.

A doctor entered the room, wearing a reassuring smile. "Mr. Roscoe, how are you feeling today?" he asked, checking the monitors and adjusting the drip.

Roscoe grunted in response. "Better, I guess," he said through gritted teeth. The pain was still intense, but he tried not to show it. He didn’t want to appear wea

He had given fifteen million dollars to Helen's family after her death.However, while he was being driven to the hospital, his phone buzzed with a call from a key investor, Mr. Richards Wout, one of the wealthiest men in the city. He had promised to call general Stormbreaker at this time.Romeo knew this conversation would be crucial for rebuilding the Davidson Group."General Stormbreaker speaking," Romeo said in his calm, strong voice."My prince... I’ve heard about what happened with Mrs. Davidson. The illegal deals, the money laundering, the killings... It’s a mess," Mr. Richards replied. "Why should I trust Davidson Hospitality group with my money now? That group is full of ambitious suckers who would do anything for money."Romeo remained composed. "Mr. Richards, I understand your concerns. But Mrs. Davidson is no longer part of the company. She’s gone, and so is

    Romeo sat beside Linda, who lay on the hospital bed, with a drip connected to her arm. Her eyes were red from crying, and her voice was weak."So my mother really killed our daughter?" she asked, her lips were trembling."Yes, love," Romeo answered softly. "She hated the fact that a broke man like me was living in her house, married to her most beautiful daughter."Linda’s face twisted in pain. "She…she’s so cruel. How could she ensure that a newborn baby—her own grandchild—was brutally killed? My baby..." Her voice broke as tears streamed down her cheeks.Romeo gently wrapped his arms around her, pulling her close. "It’s okay, love. Don’t worry about that now," he whispered, trying to soothe her. "It’s over. We’ll get through this."She let out soft sobs, but after a while, Romeo’s comforting touch calmed her. Her crying slowed, and she rested her head on his chest."If my mother hadn’t taken her own life, I would have strangled the life out of her myself," Linda fumed. "How could sh

    Joseph Schultz took a deep breath before continuing his testimony, the weight of his words heavy in the silent courtroom. “However, Your Honor,” he began, “that is not her only sin. Mrs. Davidson was also responsible for the cyber attack on NovaTech, which caused the company to lose billions of dollars. This attack led to the tragic death of Miss Chen, the CEO of NovaTech, who took her own life after the collapse of her business.” Gasps filled the room as the people listened in shock. The judge leaned forward slightly. “What evidence do you have to prove this, Mr. Schultz?” Joseph reached into his pocket and pulled out a small flash drive. “I have a voice recording, Your Honor. This recording captures Mrs. Davidson speaking with the computer experts who carried out the heist.” “Can we hear it?” the judge asked, his voice calm but firm. Joseph nodded and handed the flash drive to a court officer, who inserted it into a laptop. Moments later, the sound of Mrs. Davidson’s voice fill

    It was trial day for Mrs Davidson and in the courtroom, Mrs. Davidson stood before the judge, and her face was tight with tension. The air was heavy as the judge looked down at her from his high seat. His voice was firm and clear."Mrs. Davidson," the judge began, "you are charged with corruption, murder, and coercion. ?"Mrs. Davidson raised her head, and her voice was strong. "Not guilty, Your Honor. I deny all these charges."Mrs. Davidson’s eyes flashed with anger as she raised her voice, refusing to stay calm in this matter. Her hands were clenched at the sides of the podium, her knuckles were white with tension."These accusations are absurd!" she spat, her voice was venomous. "I have worked my whole life to build my company from the ground up. I would never stoop to murder, corruption, or coercion! This is nothing but a disgusting attempt to ruin my reputation!"Her words echoed through the courtroom, and people shifted in their seats, taken aback by her sudden aggression."Y

    Two black bullet proof SUV vehicles pulled up in front of the hospital were Helen was. The doors opened, and General Romeo Stormbreaker stepped out. He didn’t wait for his security detail. His mind was only on Helen. He rushed toward the emergency department, with his military boots hitting the ground fast and hard.Without his usual moustache, the citizens nearby didn’t recognize him. Some glanced at him, confused by his familiar face, but they didn’t know who he was. Romeo ignored them and hurried through the hospital’s front doors, his eyes were scanning the area.“Where is the emergency department?” he asked the receptionist, his voice was tense.“Down the hall, first door to the left,” she quickly replied.Romeo followed her directions, walking fast. As he reached the entrance of the ward, he saw Helen’s mother, father, and sister waiting in the corner. They looked nervous, pacing back and forth. But when they saw him—dressed in his general's uniform—their eyes widened in shoc

    General Romeo Stormbreaker’s eyes narrowed as he looked down at Linda, who had fainted on the floor. He pointed to the soldiers near him.“Take her to the hospital,” he ordered, as his voice was sharp. “Make sure she receives the best treatment.”Without hesitation, two soldiers rushed to Linda’s side. They carefully lifted her from the ground and carried her out of the hall, moving quickly yet gently, as the crowd looked on in tense silence.The atmosphere in the room thickened.
