The forest was still smoking when Lesner and the Fathers climbed into their cars and drove away. In front of them was a convoy of armed men clearing the path, while behind them was another convoy providing covering. Their car was at the middle.

No one spoke. The tires crunched over broken branches, and the headlights cut through the dark trees like knives. Lesner sat in the back seat of the black sprinter bus, his hands still shaking, his mind still replaying the moment he pulled the mask off t

  • CHAPTER 30

    David sat on the edge of his bed in the small hostel room, staring at the photographs spread out before him. Three faces. Two boys, one girl. Scar's children. His mission.The room was quiet except for the faint hum of the ceiling fan and the distant sound of students laughing somewhere outside. His roommate hadn't returned yet, which was good. David needed this time alone to think.He picked up the first photo. Miller. The eldest son. Business student, third year. Tall, broad-shouldered, confident. The kind of guy who probably had friends everywhere and never struggled to fit in. The kind of guy who had women flocking around him like moths to a flame.The second photo. Mikel. The younger son. Also business, also third year. Softer features, quieter eyes. He looked like the type who followed his older brother around, letting him lead.The third photo. Catherine. The only daughter. Law student, second year. Beautiful, with her father's sharp jawline but her mother's gentle eyes. She wa

  • CHAPTER 29:

    As early as 9:00 am, a black SUV drove to the gate of Darlington University. Inside it was a man, a woman, and a young boy of twenty-two. The man was dressed in a suit, the woman in a formal gown, and the boy wore casual clothes—jeans, a hoodie, a backpack slung over his shoulder. He looked like any other freshman arriving for the semester.They stopped at the gate for a security search. The guards were professional, checking under the car, opening the trunk, scanning the inside with flashlights. The man handed over their ID cards, and the woman smiled politely. The guards verified the documents on a tablet, nodded, and waved them through."Welcome to Darlington University," one guard said.They drove slowly through the campus. The place was beautiful—green lawns, old brick buildings, students walking in groups, laughing, talking on their phones. The boy watched everything through the window, memorizing the layout, the paths, the security cameras posted on every corner.They went to t

  • CHAPTER 28.

    That night none of them rested. Raj and his hackers were in the red room working throughout to find valuable informations before the next morning and the chappatti officials never left them. They were serious about Andrew getting justice for his father. Not just because he was their leader but also because Mr. Chappatti was also their leader and they demanded justice for him. The red room was alive with the sound of keyboards clicking and voices murmuring, everyone focused on one goal—finding Scar.Andrew on the other hand wasn't present all through with them at the red room but he didn't drive home straight. He had driven far to his parents grave. His mom and dad were buried beside each other in a small cemetery on the outskirts of the city, a quiet place surrounded by old trees and tall grass. No one came here anymore except the wind and the birds.On his hand was a flower. A single red rose, the kind his mother used to love when she was alive. He had long avoided this place since h

  • FINDING SCAR

    Andrew walked out of the library with the file tucked under his arm, his jaw tight, his eyes burning. The pictures of Scar and his family were seared into his mind, and with every step he took toward the car, the anger inside him grew hotter.He got in, started the engine, and drove off.The village faded behind him, the green fields and smiling villagers replaced by empty roads and dark trees. Andrew was alone now, and he couldn't hold it in anymore. The tears came, hot and fast, streaming down his face as the steering wheel vibrated under his hands. He remembered everything—the closet, the screaming, his mother being dragged, his father's head pressed to the floor, the machetes, the blood. The monster with the apple who had given the order like he was ordering dinner."I swear to God," Andrew shouted, slamming his fist against the steering wheel, "I will make you pay with your life!"His voice echoed inside the car, but there was no one to hear it. Just him and the road and the ghos

  • CHAPTER 26: CHAPPATTI LIBRARY

    The Chappatti library wasn't something Andrew had ever heard about, not until Klaus mentioned it in passing one evening. Klaus had said it was hidden in the north of Boston, not too far from the mansion, but far enough that no one would stumble upon it by accident. Andrew had been curious ever since. He drove out early the next morning, alone, no guards, no convoy. Just him and the road. The village appeared slowly, rising out of the green hills like a place forgotten by time. There were no tall buildings, no busy streets, no signs of the modern city. Just fields of crops stretching in every direction, and people working the land—men, women, even children, all of them moving between rows of vegetables and grain. The air smelled of soil and fresh leaves. Andrew drove slowly, not wanting to disturb the peace. Villagers looked up as his car passed, some waving, others just watching with curious eyes. He waved back, smiled, and kept going. At the center of the village, standing alo

  • EMILIA

    Emilia was at home, sitting on the couch in the main living room of the Chappatti mansion. The television was on, but she wasn't really watching it. Her attention was focused on the iPad in her hands. The iPad contained details of all the shipments she had been carrying out since she became the leader of the Amptee cartel. From the charts, she was doing really well with everything. The cartel had made over three millions dollars since she started running it. Though she wasn't new to the game, she had learned alot from Mr. Ciaro before he passed.A guard walked into the room at that moment and bowed his head."Mistress, your mother is at the gate. She's asking to come in. Your sisters are with her.""Mistress, your mother is at the gate. She's asking to come in. Your sisters are with her."Emilia didn't react at first. Her face stayed completely straight, her eyes still fixed on the television screen. She sat there for a few long seconds, letting the words settle. Her mother. Her sis
