Chapter 211
The private penthouse lounge on the sixty-fourth floor of the Solis Tower was bathed in the dim, golden amber of the approaching dusk. Floor-to-ceiling panoramic glass panes looked out over the sprawling metropolitan harbor, where cargo freighters and luxury yachts drifted like toy ships across the gray water.Inside the quiet, minimalist study, Noemie sat on a wide cream-colored velvet armchair, an untouched cup of Earl Grey tea growing cold on the frosted glass side table beside her. A leather-bound sketchbook rested open on her lap, a charcoal pencil balanced idly between her slender, manicured fingers. Normally, the gentle hush of the high-altitude suite was her haven, a sanctuary away from the suffocating political maneuvers of high society.Today, however, the charcoal hadn’t touched the page for hours.A persistent, hollow dread had settled deep behind her sternum, cold and heavy like an anchor dragged across jagged rocks.The heavy double doors of the private elevator vest
Chapter 210
Priscilla leaned back against the high stack of goose-down pillows on her four-poster bed, the faint, clean scent of crushed wintergreen and ancestral ginseng ointment rising from the white linen bandages bound neatly around her wrists. Every few minutes, a nurse in a crisp gray uniform tiptoed into the quiet chamber to change the cold herbal compresses resting on her swollen cheekbones, speaking only in hushed, reverent murmurs before slipping back out through the double doors.For the first time in nearly twenty-four hours, the deafening noise of the world had completely ceased.There were no screaming kidnappers. There was no freezing concrete beneath her knees. There was no smell of burnt motor oil, stale tobacco, or the humiliating sting of coarse leather gloves striking her skin. And yet, whenever Priscilla let her heavy violet eyes flutter shut, the terrifying echoes of the godown tried to claw their way back into her chest.Her breath hitched, and she instinctively reached
Chapter 209
"When those ruthless animals had me trapped, it was Harry who answered my call! He came alone! He tracked them through the city, stormed the warehouse, and single-handedly fought his way through twenty armed mercenaries with his bare hands to pull me out of that hell! He took down three entire layers of elite killers without hesitation, just to keep me safe! He is my savior! If not for Harry Kipling, your granddaughter would be a mutilated corpse in a ditch right now!" Every single word landed like a massive boulder crashing into a calm lake, shattering the courtyard into dead, ringing silence! The eight security guards turned to stare at Harry with sheer, petrified awe. One man... fought through twenty armed mercenaries with his bare hands?! What kind of monstrous, mythical warrior was standing in front of them?! Old Master Levine closed his eyes for a brief second, exhaling a long, shuddering breath. The encrypted message from Wes Humbright echoed in his mind: “A young dragon of
Chapter 206
The eight estate security guards hesitated for a split second, their hands tightening nervously on their heavy stun batons as Violet’s screech echoed off the high marble walls of the courtyard. The air felt thick, heavy, and dangerously volatile, like a lightning storm trapped inside a glass bottle. "Did you deaf idiots not hear me?!" Violet shrieked again, her face contorting with ugly, red-faced hysteria as her pointed red stilettos stomped against the paving stones. "I said break his legs! Shatter his kneecaps! He is a common criminal who assaulted our first heiress! Attack him!" Seeing the guards twitch, preparing to lunge forward in a coordinated strike, Harry didn't take a single step back. He didn't even shift his center of gravity. His arm remained locked firmly around Priscilla's trembling waist, his chin held high, while his emerald eyes darkened into a chilling, abyss-like void. A microscopic fraction of the celestial dragon qi resting dormant within his meridians sti
Chapter 207
The morning mist had not fully burned away from the lush, pine-fringed hills when the sleek sedan pulled up outside the sprawling estate of the Levine dynasty. The towering, twenty-foot wrought-iron gates, adorned with the family’s gilded crest, stood closed, guarded by a squad of private security personnel dressed in crisp black tactical blazers and dark ties.The security post swung open as the car halted. A senior guard stepped out with a strict hand raised to inspect the vehicle, but the second the heavy driver-side door pushed open, the guard froze.Harry stepped out into the crisp autumn air. His midnight suit was torn at the cuff, covered in pale concrete dust and unmistakable splatters of dried crimson blood from the twenty mercenaries he had broken in the industrial godown. But his posture was unyielding, towering like an iron pillar, his emerald eyes radiating an unspoken, razor-sharp authority that made the guard’s breath catch in his throat.Without a single word of exp
Chapter 206
The rhythmic, gentle humming of a luxury sedan’s engine drifted through the quiet cabin as Harry drove smoothly down the coastal highway toward the residential hills. Outside, the gray morning clouds had begun to part slightly over the distant ocean horizon, casting pale, golden slivers of dawn across the damp asphalt.Priscilla lay curled on the plush leather passenger seat, wrapped securely in Harry’s heavy, tailored suit jacket. The fine wool radiated a deep, soothing warmth that steadily chased away the bone-chilling cold of the concrete warehouse that had settled deep into her shivering bones.A soft, weak whimper escaped Priscilla’s swollen lips. Her dark, delicate eyelashes fluttered against her bruised cheeks as her conscious mind slowly fought its way back from the suffocating fog of sheer trauma and mental exhaustion.Her head throbbed with a dull, persistent ache behind her temples, and her split lower lip pulsed with a sharp sting at every shallow breath. But the terrif
