CHAPTER 130 PART 2
Yemin weighed his options. Alessia had proven herself to be a valuable ally in the past, and refusing to help her now could create complications later. On the other hand, every day spent dealing with island criminals was another day that Sphinx leadership remained alive and operational.The names I have won't stay current forever, he calculated. Marco Benedetti mentioned Vincenzo Torrino, Antonio Ricci, Salvatore Greco, Lorenzo Romano, and Justin Castellanos. But these men are constantly moving, changing locations, updating security. The longer I wait, the harder they'll be to find."Alright, Alessia. I'll help you deal with this Kozlov situation.""Really? Oh, thank you! I knew I could count on you!""But we handle this quickly and efficiently. I have other urgent business that can't wait indefinitely.""Of course! Whatever you need! When can we leave?""Tonight. The sooner we get to the island, the sooner we can resolve this and I can get back to my other obligations."Two hours lat
CHAPTER 130 PART 1
After disposing of Helena's body in one of the abandoned warehouse's industrial furnaces,Yemin made his way back to where he had left Alessia waiting in her luxury sedan.The pharmaceutical heiress looked up with obvious relief when she saw him approaching."Finally! I was starting to think you'd abandoned me too," Alessia said as he got into the passenger seat."Sorry for the delay. The situation required more time than I anticipated.""Is it handled?""Completely. Now I'm ready to give you my full attention. Tell me everything about the threat to your father."Alessia took a deep breath and began recounting the events that had led to her desperate search for help."After you helped me with those loan sharks months ago, I decided to use the funds to establish my own pharmaceutical research facility.""That sounds like a smart business decision. What went wrong?""I chose to build the facility on Seaview Island, about two hours by ferry from here. I wanted to be far away from my fath
Chapter 129 part 2
Helena's eyes began to glaze over as her life ebbed away on the cold concrete. Within minutes, she was dead, taking with her the immediate threat of exposure but also any intelligence she might have provided about Sphinx operations.Problem solved, Yemin thought grimly. But not in the way I would have preferred.Meanwhile, across the city at the police headquarters, Agent Collins strode through the corridors with the confidence of someone backed by federal authority. Captain Morrison's office door bore his name in gold lettering, marking twenty-three years of dedicated service to the department.Collins knocked and entered without waiting for permission. "Captain Morrison? Agent Collins, federal task force. I need to speak with you about an ongoing investigation."Morrison looked up from his paperwork with obvious irritation. "Federal task force? What's this about?""The Joseph Ultra mansion massacre. We have reason to believe your department had contact with the premises shortly befo
Chapter 129 part 1
Yemin examined the shipping container more carefully, his trained eyes picking up details that others might miss. Despite his growing alarm at the assassin's escape, his tactical mind remained focused on tracking and containment.Blood droplets on the container floor, he observed, noting the small crimson spots near the chair. She injured herself during the escape process.Following the trail outside, Yemin found more evidence of the assassin's desperate flight. Drops of blood led from the container toward the main road, becoming more frequent and larger as he followed them.She's bleeding heavily, Yemin realized. The self-inflicted wound to cut her restraints was deeper than she intended.The trail wound through the industrial district's maze of abandoned buildings and empty lots, with blood drops marking her increasingly erratic path. After twenty minutes of careful tracking, Yemin spotted a figure stumbling between two derelict warehouses ahead.The assassin was clearly in distress
Chapter 128
As they walked through the hotel's parking garage toward Alessia's luxury sedan, Yemin studied her distressed expression with practiced assessment. Her usual composed demeanor had been replaced by genuine fear and urgency."I know you're in danger," Yemin said without preamble.Alessia stopped walking and turned to face him with surprise. "How could you possibly know that? I haven't told you anything yet.""Because you wouldn't be desperately searching for me all over the city if everything was normal. Alessia Wrenford doesn't run around in a panic unless something serious has happened.""You're right. Someone tried to kill my father tonight.""Your father? Richard Wrenford? When? Where?""At the Children's Hospital fundraiser. He was giving a speech when someone tried to poison him. If it hadn't been for some mysterious man who saved his life..."That was me, Yemin realized. She's talking about what happened at the Grand Metropolitan Hotel."Did they catch whoever was responsible?""
Chapter 127
Katherine watched Yemin and Alessia disappear through the hotel's revolving doors before turning to Faye with a predatory smile. The shock of Yemin's earlier revelation about her Group A contract had been replaced by vindictive satisfaction at seeing another woman abandoned by her ex-husband."Well, well, well," Katherine said with obvious glee. "Look how quickly your knight in shining armor ran off with another woman.""Katherine, I'm not in the mood for your games right now.""Games? Sweetheart, this isn't a game - this is reality. And the reality is that Yemin Morgan just showed you exactly what kind of man he really is.""You don't know what you're talking about.""Don't I? Faye, honey, I was married to that pathetic excuse for a man for three years. I know his patterns better than anyone.""His patterns?""The way he targets successful, wealthy women and plays the mysterious, damaged hero until he gets what he wants from them."Faye turned away from Katherine, trying to process t
