One of the thugs standing beside Maurice turned toward Sosa and asked,“Boss, what about Maurice? What should we do with him?”Sosa slowly removed the cigar from his mouth before glancing toward Maurice’s terrified wife. A cruel smile spread across his face calmly, “Kill him,” he said casually, as though talking about crushing an insect.The moment those words left his mouth, Maurice’s wife broke down immediately.“No! Please don’t kill my husband!” she cried while struggling violently. “Please! I’m begging you!”But Sosa held her firmly with one hand while grinning wickedly, “Why are you still concerned about him? You are my mine now!”Maurice himself froze in horror as the reality of the situation hit him fully. Was these his final moments?For a brief moment, the entire room felt suffocating.Then suddenly— The warehouse door was pushed open violently and a cold voice immediately rang out from the entrance..“You will do no such thing.”Everybody immediately turned toward the en

Inside a dimly lit warehouse room, several rough-looking men lounged around lazily with weapons scattered carelessly beside them. The smell of cigarette smoke and alcohol filled the air heavily while loud laughter echoed occasionally from different corners of the room.In one corner of the warehouse, however, the atmosphere was completely different.Maurice tightly hugged three trembling figures close to himself.His wife and his two little daughters, who were obviously not more than ten years old.All four of them were crying heavily.One of the little girls clung tightly to Maurice’s shirt while tears streamed uncontrollably down her cheeks.“Daddy…” she whispered fearfully. “I’m scared. Are we going to die?”The moment Maurice heard those words, his heart felt like it was being torn apart.Even though he himself was terrified, he immediately rubbed the little girl gently on her head while forcing a calm smile onto his face.“No,” he said softly. “Nothing is going to happen to you.

Speaking of fathers, Alex suddenly recalled someone he had not thought about in a very long time.A middle-aged man named Maurice.Back when he first entered prison three years ago, life there had been extremely brutal for him. He had been young, weak, and completely alone, so most of the inmates constantly picked on him because they saw him as an easy target.Some stole his food regularly while others beat him simply because they could. There were nights he went to sleep covered in bruises with an empty stomach.But during those difficult times, Maurice had stepped in.The man was feared and respected by many inmates inside the prison, so once he started protecting Alex, most people stopped troubling him openly.Even though they were not in any way related, Maurice always treated Alex like he was his own son. He taught him how to survive inside prison, shared his food with him whenever Alex had nothing to eat, and whenever fights broke out, Maurice always stood in front of him firs

Alex walked out of the Vice Chancellor’s office with a profound smile on his face. The heavy burden that had weighed down his chest throughout the entire day had finally disappeared completely.Not only had his expulsion been reversed, but the Vice Chancellor had personally assured him that he would still graduate alongside his classmates despite missing years of examinations.For the first time since leaving prison, Alex finally felt like his life was slowly getting back on track again.By the time he left the administrative building, evening had already arrived. Most lectures had ended for the day and students were gradually leaving the campus. Alex himself felt completely exhausted after everything that had happened. It had truly been another long and stressful day.At that moment, all Alex wanted was to return home and rest properly.Without wasting more time, he left the university premises and boarded a cab and headed towards Eco City Estate.Throughout the journey, Alex leane

Alex ignored the students completely and continued walking calmly toward the administrative unit. However, Daniel and the others refused to let him pass peacefully.“He should leave this school immediately!”“What is a criminal still doing on campus?”Several students continued chanting loudly around him while Daniel stood proudly at the front with Lily beside him. Daniel smirked coldly while staring directly at Alex.“You really have no shame at all,” he mocked arrogantly. “After being expelled, you still dared come back here.”Alex did not even bother replying and simply continued walking forward calmly. That only irritated Daniel even more.“Hey!” Daniel shouted angrily while grabbing Alex’s shoulder. “Didn’t you hear me talking to you?”But before Alex could react, a stern voice suddenly thundered loudly from behind them.“Quiet! All of you!”The entire area instantly became silent as everyone quickly turned toward the source of the voice.The Vice Chancellor was approaching them

Alex’s eyes narrowed slightly after hearing the man’s words.The man smiled calmly before speaking again.“I forgot to properly introduce myself,” he said casually. “I am a member of the university’s board of trustees.”Alex looked at him quietly, but before he could react properly, the man added something else that shocked him even more.“And not just any member,” the man continued calmly. “I am actually the president of the board.”Alex blinked in surprise immediately.The man then slipped one hand into his pocket and brought out his phone while speaking casually again.“The Vice Chancellor answers directly to me.”For a brief moment, Alex honestly did not know what to say. Everything was happening too quickly and the situation still felt unreal to him.The man unlocked his phone before asking calmly,“What did you say your name was again?”“Alex Hayes,” Alex answered.The man nodded lightly before dialing a number immediately.The call connected after a few seconds.At the other en
