Chapter 294
David slumped onto the sofa, the weight of betrayal etched deeply into his aging face.The lines of despair were clear, reflecting a soul shattered beyond repair.Seventeen years he had cherished Luther, believing him to be flesh of his flesh.And now, the truth sliced through him like a cold blade—Luther wasn't his son.Lyra cautiously stepped closer, concern softening her voice. "David, do you want some time alone? We can come back later."“No,” David snapped, his voice dangerously calm, eyes flashing with a sinister fury.“I have to thank Alex personally for unveiling this nightmare.”He rose abruptly, bitterness seeping into every syllable.“Life’s a twisted joke. I’ve spent my whole existence doing good deeds, only to be repaid with HIV, a cheating wife, and now—the bitter irony—my beloved son isn’t even mine.”He drew a ragged breath, anguish heavy in his chest. All the wealth and power he’d accumulated, yet now he stood heirless, a broken king without a legacy.David reached fo

David lowered his eyes, shame flickering briefly across his face."Maybe you're right," he admitted quietly. "I'm sorry for doubting your miracle pill."Lyra's lips curled into a knowing smile. "Glad we're clear. Your last announcement caused my sales to plummet. That needs fixing."Forcing a strained smile, David sighed deeply. "I'll publicly endorse it again, I promise. But you need to help me get rid of this disease first."Alex leaned forward."Easy enough. Just take the miracle pill once a month, and within three months, your body will eradicate all traces of HIV. Trust the process.""Then we're finished here," Alex said, rising smoothly from his chair."Wait!" David’s voice broke urgently, punctuated by a rattling cough. "There's something else. Just a moment, please.""No rush," Alex replied, exchanging an intrigued glance with Lyra.David signaled to one of his guards, and shortly after, a young man about seventeen stepped nervously into the room."This is Luther Morgan, my on

"Explain what?" Rose screamed, her voice echoing harshly against the sterile walls."He's lying—every single one of them is! We’ve been doing just fine with Dr. Louise York. Now suddenly these frauds show up and hand us a completely different result? No way. They’re all liars—plain and simple!"The doctors and nurses exchanged weary, condescending glances, staring at Rose as though she were raving mad."If you can't accept reality, that's your problem," the lead doctor said coldly, her tone dripping contempt."Feel free to find another hospital to peddle your delusions. But be warned, your precious private doctor is nothing but a fraud who'd sell his mother for the right price."With a dismissive sneer, the doctor pivoted sharply, stalking back toward the helicopter, leaving a bitter, unbearable truth hanging heavily behind him.Lyra broke into bitter laughter."Alex, why don't you break it down for them," she mocked, "as a professional, of course."Alex’s smile curled into something

"You lying scum!" Rose exploded, clawing desperately at her fading dignity."I just left the hospital today, got a clean bill of health, and you dare frighten me with this filthy slander?"Alex merely shrugged, utterly unfazed, his eyes glinting like sharpened steel. "Suit yourself, princess. Believe whatever helps you sleep at night.""You insufferable wretch! You dare humiliate me in public?!" Rose roared, her voice splintering under the weight of her rage and shame.She spun furiously to her muscle-bound bodyguard. "William! Smash his smug face into the ground—right now!"William, muscles flexing like iron beneath taut skin, took one imposing step forward, fists clenched, eyes darkening with silent menace as tension crackled like a prairie fire.But before he got close, Alex raised a casual, commanding hand."Think twice, big guy," he warned."I'm not joking about her condition. If she spits on you, God help you—you might end up counting your days right alongside her. Are you sure

The morning sun blazed defiantly through the half-shuttered windows of the clinic, throwing jagged patterns of light across the dusty floors and fresh paint buckets scattered around.Alex had already summoned carpenters and painters to breathe new life into the place after the incident, so the scent of fresh timber and varnish lingered thickly.Josephine stood by the reception counter, diligently arranging scattered documents when the door swung open, letting in a gust of hot, dry air.Lyra Thompson strode in, radiant and poised, her presence commanding attention amidst the half-built chaos."Ms. Thompson!" Josephine’s eyes widened with surprise and admiration."Josephine," Lyra chuckled warmly, placing a comforting hand on the young girl's shoulder, her tone filled with playful scolding."How many times must I tell you? Call me Lyra. You’re practically family."Josephine smiled shyly, eyes downcast, still not fully believing she was allowed such intimacy."I'll try, Lyra," she murmur
Chapter 291
Charles stormed down the dim hallway to his apartment, each furious step echoing with raw indignation.But as he pressed his palm to the sleek electronic lock, the red flash mocked him like a bitter slap in the face."What kind of twisted joke is this?"Charles snarled through clenched teeth, slamming his fist and kick repeatedly into the door.An ear-splitting alarm wailed to life, shrieking betrayal through every inch of the pristine corridor.The manager emerged quickly, flanked by two burly security guards whose hardened faces showed no recognition—only grim authority.“You! Manager!” Charles spat venomously, stalking toward him. “What’s your damned name again?”“Josh,” the manager replied coolly, his tone unsettlingly steady. “Been running this place for ten years now, sir.”"Yeah, but what’s the point in remembering a name that means nothing to me? Fix This!"Charles' eyes narrowed dangerously, confusion and anger twisting his handsome features.This spineless creature had alway

“Honey,” Jessica whispered shakily over the phone, her voice cracking like ice under pressure.“You’ve never raised your voice at me. Not once. What the hell is going on?”Alfred’s voice shot back, low and sharp through the line.“You want the truth, Jessica? Your damned generosity turned Charles into a monster. And if we don’t pull him back now, we’re the ones who’ll pay the price.”Jessica gasped, her breath catching. “But he’s our son, Alfred—our only son!”“Exactly!” Alfred snapped, voice boiling over.“And if you don’t shut off the money, the next time we see Charles, it'll be in a goddamn casket!”Jessica’s voice rose, shaking with fury.“How dare you, Alfred Kingston! You never gave a damn about him! Your heart was always with Jasmine!”“You’re the great governor—so act like it and protect your son for once in your miserable life!”There was a pause, then a growl from Alfred as he paced.“Governor?” he snarled into the receiver. “That title doesn’t mean jack when Charles is pok

Alex slammed down the phone and turned sharply, grabbing a mop.Josephine was already scrubbing furiously at the floor, her eyes bloodshot and shimmering.She hadn't said a single bitter word, but grief hung over her like a funeral shroud.Her pets—her beloved Blackie, Brownie, and little Kitty—slaughtered by that monster Charles.Her silence was deafening, punctuated only by muffled sobs she desperately tried to hide.Watching her silent struggle twisted a knife deep in Alex’s gut.The quiet intensity of their cleanup was suddenly broken by the sleek rumble of an engine.A black limousine screeched to a halt outside, gravel crunching ominously beneath its tires.Alfred Kingston burst from the car, his expensive business suit rumpled from the rush, face pale as a corpse, breath ragged as if chased by death itself.When he caught sight of Alex's dark, seething expression through the glass, terror surged through his veins.Alfred stepped inside cautiously, taking in the chaos—broken equ

Charles laughed wildly, blood streaming from his nose, smearing across his twisted grin."You think this is over, Alex? You're gonna beg for mercy when I'm through with you!"A sudden wail of sirens cut through the air as a patrol car screeched to a stop just inches from Alex, tires skidding and gravel exploding around his feet.A stocky officer lumbered out, swaggering towards him."Heard you couldn't keep your fists to yourself," he sneered. "Hands behind your back—now."Alex met Charles' eyes and understood instantly. This bastard had planned it meticulously, baiting him into losing control, a setup that had these crooked cops waiting in the wings."You heard him!" barked another officer, stepping closer."Turn around, hands behind your back!"Josephine rushed forward, panic twisting her face. "Are you blind? This lunatic slaughtered our pets—look at what's left of them!"A smirk spread across the officer’s greasy face."Yeah, we see exactly what's here. Looks like someone went psy
