CHAPTER 93
Carissa scrambled forward on her knees, her once arrogant face now filled with desperation. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she crawled closer to Richard, her broken wrist hanging at her side.“Please!” she begged, her voice cracking. “Forgive me! Mi dispiace tanto! I was wrong, I swear! I will give you my loyalty from now on. I will serve only you. Just spare my life, I beg you!”She switched rapidly between English and Italian, repeating her pleas over and over, her words tumbling out in panic.Richard looked down at her and scoffed.“I don’t need unstable loyalty like yours,” he said, his voice was cold and dismissive. “If things get difficult next time, you’ll betray me the same way you betrayed Jonas. Your word means nothing.”Carissa shook her head frantically. “No, no! I won’t! I swear on my life! Jonas forced me, but I see now… you are stronger. Let me prove it to you!”Rico stepped forward, his eyes filled with disgust. Without warning, he slapped her hard across the face.
CHAPTER 92
Back in New Orleans, Richard glanced around. Over fifty rifles were pointed directly at him and Rico, yet his expression did not change. He was not scared as he expected this outcome. If things had gone too smoothly, then Jonas was nothing more than a noisemaker and Richard would have been disappointed. This was not the first time guns had been aimed at him, and it would not be the last but he was concerned about Rico. He had given Arianne his word that nothing would happen to her husband during this mission and he always kept his promises.Carissa kept her pistol pressed firmly against Richard’s chest with a triumphant smirk on her face.All who had ever pointed weapons at him had never lived to tell the story and today would be no different.With lightning speed, Richard moved.In less than three seconds, he kicked the rifle out of Carissa’s hand as the weapon flew across the corridor and clattered against the wall. Before she could react, he grabbed her wrist, twisted it, and snap
CHAPTER 91
Back in New York City, at Richard’s manor, Arianne rushed over the moment Michelle hit the mat. She dropped to her knees beside her and quickly helped her sit up.“Michelle! Are you okay?” Arianne asked, worry evident in her voice as she checked her head for any injury.Michelle sat there for a few seconds, still staring into space. Her face was pale as she slowly shook her head.“No,” she whispered. “I’m not okay.”Arianne frowned. “Did you hit your head too hard? Let me see—”Michelle held her arm, stopping her. “I remembered something, Arianne. From years ago.”She took a deep breath and continued. “I saw Jonas that night. The night I got drunk at the club, he was there. He was watching from the VIP section. I don’t think he saw me clearly, but I remember his face now. At the time, I wondered what a boy his age was doing at that kind of party, but Daniel pulled me away before I could think much about it.”Arianne listened carefully, her expression growing serious. She sat back on t
CHAPTER 90
At the underground complex in New Orleans, the woman’s cold gaze moved over Richard and Rico. She looked them up and down with clear disdain, then scoffed.“Guarda questi due,” she said in Italian, her lips curling in mockery. “Jonas si è preoccupato per niente. Sono così magri e semplici. Questo è il grande Richard Carter che tutti temono?”Which means: “Look at these two. Jonas has been worried for nothing. They are so lanky and simple. This is the great Richard Carter that everyone fears?”One of the masked guards beside her shifted uncomfortably and spoke in a low voice. “Don’t be deceived, senora. Godfrey was taken down by this same ‘lanky’ man. He is dangerous.”The woman frowned and glared harder at Richard. He stood completely still, showing no fear or any form of intimidation from her or her men.Richard had understood every word and a smirk slowly formed on his lips.The woman noticed the smirk and raised an eyebrow. “Something funny, Carter?”Richard’s voice was calm when h
CHAPTER 89
News of Jonas Davison’s real identity spread like wildfire across New Orleans and quickly reached beyond the city. By morning, every major news channel was running the story. Jonathan Sinclair, the last surviving member of the fallen Sinclair family, was wanted for multiple crimes including smuggling, money laundering, and orchestrating attacks on high-profile figures. An arrest warrant had been issued in his name and Images of his face flashed on screens nationwide, accompanied by urgent warnings.Back in New York City, Michelle and Arianne moved around the counter while preparing breakfast together. The smell of freshly brewed coffee and pancakes filled the air as they laughed over something new every once in a while. “We should add more intense drills today,” Arianne said, flipping a pancake with ease. “You’re getting better at escapes. We can start working on takedowns.”Michelle smiled, chopping fresh fruits for the children’s plates. “I’m ready. My body still aches from yester
CHAPTER 88
Chapter 88 Richard sat in a corner of the interrogation room with one leg crossed casually over the other. He observed everything with a calm look. The air was filled with the metallic scent of blood and under the fluorescent lights, Godfrey McDonald knelt in the center of the room. His once-crisp suit was now torn and stained with blood and his face swollen from repeated blows.Richard’s men worked and each strike was calculated, not enough to kill, but more than enough to break the commissioner’s will. Godfrey gasped and coughed as another fist connected with his ribs, his body jerking violently.“Enough,” Richard said. The men stepped back immediately and Godfrey slumped forward, breathing heavily with blood dripping from his split lip onto the concrete floor. He lifted his head slowly, his eyes filled with terror as they met Richard’s cold gaze.“You… you bastard,” Godfrey wheezed. “Jonas will destroy you for this.”Richard leaned forward slightly, his expression still calm. “Jo
