“I… I know…”A frail man stepped forward, pointing at Arthur Barrett.“Many of the classified files in our research department are stored on Director Barrett’s computer.”Arthur Barrett glanced at the man who had betrayed him, too weak even to glare.This was exactly the effect Duncan Kirk wanted. He casually pointed at another person.The selected individual’s legs gave out instantly, and he was dragged forward by two burly men.This time, however, Duncan Kirk did not order any violence. Instead, he fixed his gaze on Arthur Barrett.“You may be loyal to the Hill Group—but can you guarantee that everyone here shares your loyalty?”Arthur Barrett lowered his head in silence as Duncan Kirk approached him.“Whether they suffer or not depends entirely on you. If you cooperate…”“Impossible.”Though his voice was faint, it was unwavering.Duncan Kirk’s expression turned cold. It was time to unveil his final card.“Very well. You may not care about yourself—or even them. But surely there is

After they dragged Arthur Barrett outside, his screams soon echoed back into the building.They were accompanied by the sickening sounds of bones snapping, one after another.Inside the laboratory, everyone felt a creeping dread, each person fearing they would be next.The mere sound of such agony was unbearable—none of them could imagine enduring it themselves.Duncan Kirk glanced at their frightened expressions, and though he was somewhat satisfied, he knew it was far from enough to make them speak.“You. Come here.”He casually pointed at someone—the young man with glasses.Realizing he had been singled out, the young man staggered backward in panic.Duncan Kirk let out a cold snort. There was nowhere to run.“Bring him here.”At once, his men stepped forward and seized the young man.“What are you doing?!”A ripple of alarm spread through the lab.Duncan Kirk chuckled.“What do you think I’m doing? As long as you refuse to tell me where the formulas are, do you think any of you wi

The Grant family villa lay in utter disarray, yet no one had the heart to tend to it. A few remaining servants wiped away their tears as they began to tidy the main hall.Tabitha Grant’s mother let out a soft sigh and joined them.What had just occurred was nothing short of a catastrophe for the Grant family.Especially Timothy Lane’s parting words—they weighed heavily on both Tabitha and the rest of the family, filling them with unease.Tabitha’s father knew his daughter’s temperament all too well. He fixed her with a stern gaze.“No matter what happens tomorrow, you are not to go see that bastard Timothy Lane. Do you hear me?”Even back when Tabitha was still in school, he had heard enough about Timothy Lane to form a thoroughly negative impression.And now, seeing him aligned with Patrick Davidson only confirmed his worst suspicions.A man like that—one didn’t need to think twice to know he harbored nothing but ill intent.Tabitha did not answer. In the end, she simply lowered her

Though Daisy had once been someone Russell Sanders desired, after clashing with her time and again, his hatred for her now trailed only slightly behind what he felt for Adrian.The members of the Hill family trembled, not a single one daring to speak.Finding no amusement in their silence, Russell Sanders turned and left with Master Darkshade.Only after they had completely departed the hospital did the Hill family finally dare to breathe again.“Thank you… for not telling them where Daisy is.”Joanna Emerson let out a bitter smile, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.The Hill family was already on the brink of ruin. Daisy was the only one the Sanders family had yet to locate.As long as Daisy remained free, there was still hope.The others understood this just as well.“Don’t say that, Joanna. Daisy is our last lifeline…”They only knew that Daisy had gone to the provincial capital for a meeting. After that, she had vanished without a trace.But hearing that she was not under the

Thornton Trinity frowned, her face etched with disdain.“No matter what, we are your elders. Is this any way to speak to us?”Russell Sanders lifted his chin arrogantly, not sparing her a second glance.“Elders? You think you deserve that title? Sign the contract and you might live. Otherwise, every ten minutes you stall, I’ll kill one of you—until there’s no one left.”He dragged over a chair and sat down carelessly.The words left his mouth with unsettling ease, as though taking a life meant nothing at all.But the vicious glint in his eyes was unmistakable, and Joanna Emerson and the others felt a chill of fear creep in.Even without asking, they already knew who had been orchestrating everything behind the Hill family’s downfall.And they could not be certain that Russell Sanders was bluffing.He, for his part, had no intention of wasting more time.“Think it over carefully. The choice is yours.”Joanna Emerson trembled with rage. Seeing his absolute confidence only deepened her f

At that moment, a booming voice rang out from outside the door.“Is this the restaurant that poisoned its customers?”Serena Hill’s heart sank. She turned around to see a group of uniformed officers filing in.Some of the diners—whether out of malice or mere curiosity—hurriedly pointed toward the private room.“Officers, are you here to investigate the poisoning? The people are inside.”“I heard someone died after drinking tea. I suspect the poison was in the tea leaves!”“That’s terrifying. Who knows if any of the other dishes were contaminated?”“We can’t come here anymore.”Hearing the overlapping chatter, the officers’ expressions immediately grew grave.“Someone has already died from the poisoning?”They wasted no time and followed the directions into the private room.The room was already crowded with people, packed to the brim.“Secure everyone. No one is allowed to leave!”The restaurant staff fell into disarray, voices rising in anxious protest.The urgency on Serena Hill’s f
