SEASON 2 : CHAPTER 490
Evelyn sat alone in her penthouse overlooking the black river. The floor-to-ceiling windows reflected her hollow stare, a crystal glass trembling between her fingers. The city lights blurred like distant embers.Her company was gone. Her influence destroyed.And all of it—because of him.“Javier Everhart,” she hissed, saying his name as though it burned her tongue.Then a quiet laugh echoed behind her.“Careful,” said a voice—smooth, deep, deliberate. “You sound as though you admire him.”Evelyn didn’t turn immediately. She recognized the tone—dangerous, amused, familiar. “You came.”
SEASON 2 : CHAPTER 489
News broke across every financial network by dawn — Kincaid Corporation had suffered a monumental collapse. Stock values plummeted. Partnerships froze. The media painted it as a “strategic takeover,” but everyone in Everhaven knew better. It was retribution — silent, precise, and absolute.And the man behind it never once gave a statement.Javier Everhart’s silence said more than any press release could.But the ripples didn’t stop at Kincaid Tower. They spread — through boardrooms, across private groups, into the hearts of those who had once mocked him. Now they whispered his name with fear instead of arrogance.Still, not everyone bowed.Somewhere in the east quarter of the city, in
SEASON 2 : CHAPTER 488
By noon, the owner of Le Châtain—Claude Devereaux, a man known for arrogance and a network of powerful allies—stormed into his own restaurant, his temper barely contained.“How could you idiots let this happen?” he barked, slamming his hand on the counter. “You insulted a man who can buy this entire block!”Celeste, pale and shaking, stood before him. “Sir, we… we didn’t know. He didn’t say who he was. He—he looked—”“Poor?” Claude finished, his voice dripping venom. “That’s the point, isn’t it? You never know who walks through those doors. And now he owns every bottle in my cellar!”The staff exchanged terrified glances.But Claude wasn’t done. “I want him found. Whoever this Javier Everhart thinks he is, he humiliated my establishment. No one does that without consequence.”“Sir,” the manager ventured hesitantly, “you don’t want to—”“I said find him!” Claude roared. “If he’s a businessman, he has rivals. Rivals who might want to see him fall.”And that was when the idea began to fe
SEASON 2 : CHAPTER 487
The rain had stopped just before dusk. The streets gleamed under soft gold light, reflections rippling across the windows of Le Châtain, one of the most exclusive restaurants in the city — a place whispered to refuse entry to anyone not dressed or recognized as part of the upper elite.Javier Everhart arrived without escort, dressed simply in a dark coat, his presence understated yet magnetic. He stepped through the revolving glass door, the scent of aged wine and truffle butter mingling with low jazz. He was here for one purpose — to buy a rare, vintage bottle rumored to be stored in their private cellar, a gift he’d promised for someone who once loved such things.But from the moment his shoes touched the marble floor, eyes turned toward him — assessing, uncertain, and soon… judgmental.The hostess, a tall woman with a perfectly polished smile, stepped forward. Her name tag gleamed — Celeste.“Good evening, sir,” she began in the sweet, rehearsed tone of practiced hospitality. “Do y
SEASON 2 : CHAPTER 486
At a luxury club uptown, three men sat in a private lounge—figures once considered untouchable themselves. Cigars smoked between tense fingers. Whiskey burned in untouched glasses.“Evelyn’s fall changes everything,” muttered Leonard Rhodes, head of Rhodes Financial, his voice sharp and bitter. “Everhart’s power will double after this. The market’s already shifting in his favor.”Across from him, Victor Kane, the oil magnate whose empire once rivaled Javier’s, scoffed. “Double? He’s about to own half this damn city. Investors are crawling back to him like dogs. We’ll be ruined if we don’t act.”The third man, a silent figure with gray at his temples and eyes as cold as iron, finally spoke. “Evelyn’s mistake was thinking she could destroy him publicly.”The others turned toward him.“So what do you suggest, Montgomery?” Rhodes asked warily.The older man leaned forward, voice quiet but venomous. “You cut a serpent’s head off when it’s still. Not when it’s looking.”Kane frowned. “You’r
SEASON 2 : CHAPTER 485
Screens across skyscrapers, cafés, and train stations flickered with Evelyn Kincaid’s face. Her crimson lips curved into the perfect imitation of control, but her eyes betrayed triumph that burned too bright—too desperate.“This morning,” Evelyn began, standing behind a podium draped in Helios’s golden insignia, “I come forward not as a businesswoman, but as a defender of truth. Javier Everhart—the so-called titan of industry—has built his empire not on innovation, but manipulation.”Her voice rang out clear and cold across every broadcast. “We have obtained documents proving Everhart Holdings acquired multiple corporations using falsified valuations and illegal offshore accounts. I have filed an official report with the National Trade Commission. Effective immediately, Everhart is under investi
