At that moment, Princess Sophia then take a deep breath, her eyes soft yet filled with courage, and she said to Tyler, “I actually believe in you. I hope that you’ll be able to succeed in this. And maybe I’m jumping the gun right now, but… I feel like you’ll save me. Still, if it turns out not possible, please don’t hold yourself accountable. I won’t blame you. Just know that if the time comes and you take it, I’ll be glad it’s you. I’ll be grateful that you were the one who possessed it, who carried that part of me forward. That, to me, would still be enough.”

Her voice trembled slightly, but her words were resolute. It was the sound of someone who had accepted both hope and fate in the same breath.

Tyler, however, immediately shook his head, his gaze burning with a fire that allowed no space for defeat. “No,” he said firmly, his voice low but full of conviction. “You shouldn’t worry about that. Nobody’s taking anything. Not now. Not ever. I already told you, Sophia I’ll find another

    Still Tyler’s grip was a cold, iron thing around the boss’s throat, but his voice low and smooth as oil poured over glass carried farther than his hands. Tyler’s eyes didn’t wander. They found the man who had humiliated his mother, the man who had pressed that obscene card against her forehead, the man whose men had written “a lesson” across her shutters in acid and malice. Tyler’s mouth formed each word deliberately, letting them land like blows.“You think you can humiliate my mother and walk away?” he said, every syllable a promise of consequence. “You came for threats; you came for fear. You picked the wrong family to scare.” The boss’s struggles were frantic now, hands clawing at Tyler’s wrist, at air, at the reason this house would no longer feel safe. The other Bushmans hurried to the edge of the room, flitting between a show of control and the naked panic they had never expected to swallow. Phones were half-raised, then dropped, useless in the face of the thing standing in fr

    At that moment, the atmosphere in the Bushman mansion had completely shifted into a boiling storm of fury and disbelief. Upon hearing the words that boldly escaped Tyler’s mouth—"I choose the opposite"—Mr. Bushman’s face twisted, his veins pulsing across his temple like a live wire ready to snap. It was as though someone had thrown gasoline on a fire that had already been smoldering with pride, fear, and rage.His lips curled in disgust, and with a voice that thundered like a crashing wave, he snapped:“How dare you… you piece of shit!”He took a step forward, pointing a trembling but furious finger at Tyler. His pride had been stomped on, his authority humiliated in front of his wife, his children, his guards, and the very walls that symbolized the power of the Bushman name.“How dare you still have the audacity,” he spat, “to threaten us in our own house! In my house!” His voice echoed throughout the grand living room, bouncing off the expensive art, the towering bookshelves, the m

    At that moment, Mrs. Bushman slowly lowered her phone but didn’t look away from Tyler not even for a second. Her voice remained composed, yet each word carried the cold weight of decades of power, legacy, and dominance. Her chin tilted slightly upward as she continued, her presence radiating the pride of someone who had never known the taste of fear, only the smell of victory.“And let me make something crystal clear to you,” she said, her eyes gleaming, “if anything ever happens to us even a scratch—then I can assure you, our family is not going to take it lightly. You think this is the Bushman family?” she scoffed, her lips curling into a bitter smile. “This is only a branch, young man. A single branch. We are just the heirs to the name. We are the face.”She slowly took a step forward, her voice rising ever so slightly with righteous fury.“Do you have any idea how wide our family tree spreads? Do you really think it ends here? There are Bushmans far more sophisticated, more danger

    At that moment, upon hearing what Tyler had just said—calmly declaring death upon everyone present the temperature in the grand Bushman living room seemed to plummet, yet Mr. Bushman’s rage began to burn hotter than ever.Without hesitation, Mr. Bushman took a bold step forward. His face was red with anger, his brows deeply furrowed, and the veins on his neck twitched as he spoke, his voice thunderous and filled with authority.“Young man,” he said, pointing a finger at Tyler, “be very careful with what you say next. I have tolerated more than enough of your nonsense. You came here uninvited. You barged into my home like a madman, brought down six of my top bodyguards without lifting a finger and for that, I should already have your head on a spike!”He took another step, now standing between Tyler and the rest of his family.“But no,” he growled. “I kept calm. I didn’t even raise my hand when you attacked my men. But now–now you dare stand here and threaten me? You threaten my family

    Upon hearing what Tyler just said, the entire living room fell into a thick silence once again, but this time, it was shattered by the boss’s voice loud, trembling with both rage and disbelief.The boss blinked rapidly, then scoffed, as if trying to process if he had heard correctly. He pointed at himself with both hands, his chest rising and falling sharply, his face twisted in a mix of mockery and fury.“You… did you just say… you’re going to kill me?” he asked, his voice laced with scorn. “Are you mad?!”He laughed, but the laughter was hollow, forced, clearly trying to mask the unease beginning to settle in his chest. He took a step forward, his voice rising.“Do I look like some roadside fool to you? Do I look like those cheap bodyguards that don’t even know how to hold a gun properly? You think this is some street corner where you can beat your chest and throw words around like you’re some kind of god?! Look at me!” he roared, spreading his arms wide. “You think I’ll just fold m

    At that moment, as Tyler pushed through the final hallway and stepped into the heart of the mansion, he arrived at the Bushman family's living room.It was massive.A grand chandelier hung from the high ceiling, casting golden light over the polished marble floors. Rich paintings and portraits of the Bushman lineage filled the tall walls, and everything in the room screamed wealth and legacy. But Tyler wasn’t looking at the furniture or the gold accents.He was looking at the people inside, and yes—they were all there.The entire Bushman family.Seated like it was some kind of planned reception or royal hearing, they filled the long antique couch and velvet chairs that framed the room.Mr. Bushman, the aging but sharp-eyed patriarch, sat in the center like a king holding court. His fingers were clasped over a golden cane, not out of weakness, but as a symbol of power. His eyes locked on Tyler the moment he walked in.To his right, Mrs. Bushman sat still and calm, her poise almost too
