Jeffery turned from the window, his expression blank once more, the faint smile gone as if it had never existed.He crossed the room, his focus shifted back to the task at hand—a small, meticulous operation laid out on the polished table.A jade-colored bowl sat at the center, filled with a faintly glowing powder. Several small, polished molds were neatly arranged beside it. He picked up where he’d left off, refining a new batch of pills he’d named Vireon—a name that hinted at vitality and resilience.The process was simple but effective. A blend of rare herbs, mineral extracts, and a stabilizing compound of his own design. When ingested, Vireon worked subtly, enhancing the body’s natural healing mechanisms. It strengthened the immune system, accelerated cellular regeneration, and improved overall physical performance. Not a miracle drug—but close enough to be invaluable in the right hands. It didn’t just ward off disease; it fortified the body’s defenses, making illness less li

Prescott sat on the cold floor, his breath steady now, but his mind in turmoil. The echoes of his own insults rang louder than the silence around him.“A worthless bastard… a thug in disguise…”His own words felt like shards digging into his pride. He’d been a fool—blind, arrogant. The memory of Rita’s sharp gaze, her calm disdain, sliced through him harder than any pain he’d felt moments ago.He sighed, his shoulders sagging. “She was right,” he muttered bitterly “Damn her foresight.”Jeffery’s skill wasn’t just impressive—it was terrifying. The kind of ability that defied logic, almost supernatural in its precision. A man like that wasn’t someone to insult. He was someone to respect… or fear.The thought of reconciliation crept in, unwelcome but necessary. Only a fool would walk away from this without trying to fix what he’d broken.Prescott stood, brushing dust from his trousers, and raised his hand to knock on Jeffery’s door. His fist hovered mid-air, hesitation freezing him. He

Silence hung like a blade in the air. Prescott’s face burned with humiliation, his breath ragged as pain gnawed at his insides. He staggered, gripping the edge of a table for support, his fury simmering beneath the surface.His bloodshot eyes snapped to Rita. "This—this is the kind of person you support?" he spat, his voice hoarse with rage. "A man with no respect, no value. A thug in disguise! You stand there, watching, like he’s worth something? He’s nothing! Just a worthless bastard who should be groveling at my feet!"The insults spilled out, each word sharper than the last. But Rita didn’t flinch. She simply stood there, arms crossed, her expression blank save for the faintest flicker of irritation in her eyes.When Prescott finally ran out of breath, Rita’s lips curled into a slow, cold smile."Are you done?" she asked quietly.Prescott’s face twisted with rage, but before he could respond, Rita stepped closer, her heels clicking softly against the marble floor."Let me correct

Before Jeffery could respond, the driver stormed forward, his face twisted with frustration."Where the hell have you been?" the driver barked, his voice echoing through the room. "Do you even know we’ve been waiting for you all night?"Jeffery’s jaw tightened, his eyes narrowing into thin slits. Rage simmered beneath the surface, but for Rita’s sake, he swallowed it down. His voice was flat, controlled."I had something to deal with."The driver scoffed, undeterred. "What? Did you spend the night at some brothel? Is that what was so important?"Jeffery’s glare snapped to the driver like a whip. The room seemed to darken, the air growing heavier. His eyes, sharp as blades, bore into the man.The driver’s voice died in his throat. His bravado crumbled instantly. In his mind, Jeffery’s figure had grown—taller, broader, more imposing. Beads of sweat formed on his brow, his face turning pale as fear gripped him.He stumbled back, mouth snapping shut, trembling under Jeffery’s piercing gaz

Prescott's breathing grew shallow, his face twisted with agony. "Where is he?" he asked, his voice trembling with desperation.Rita shot him a cold look. "Calm down, Prescott. I'll call him now."She pulled out her phone and dialed Jeffery’s number, but as they waited, a faint ringing echoed from the living room. Rita turned toward the sound, her eyes narrowing.There, on the couch, lay Jeffery’s phone—its screen flashing with each ring. He had gone out without it."Unbelievable," Rita muttered under her breath, frustration creeping into her voice.Prescott’s discomfort intensified. His vision blurred as the pain surged, and he yelled in hysteria, “Find him! Now! He’s the only one who can help me!”Rita sneered, the edge of her words sharp as she spoke to the driver. “Go find him, then.” Her gaze flicked back to Prescott, her voice cold. “This is your fault. If you’d listened to Jeffery’s warnings before, none of this would have happened. So stop blabbering in my face, and let me thi

Rita stood by the doorway, arms folded, watching Mr. Prescott clutch his abdomen. The pained expression on his face, contorted with agony, was a rare sight—one she hadn’t expected to witness so soon. Jeffery’s diagnosis had come true faster than she’d anticipated. Prescott had barged back into her manor, his steps unsteady, before she’d had him seated on the couch.A smirk tugged at the corner of her lips. “Back already?” she remarked, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Looks like you’re in pain. What happened to you, Mr. Prescott? You didn’t seem to have any trouble when you left.”Prescott ignored her jibe, his face twisted in discomfort. “Please, Rita,” he rasped, his voice strained. “Call your private doctors. I need help. Fast.”Rita’s smirk deepened. Her satisfaction was palpable, a quiet victory settling in her chest. She’d been waiting for this moment, and now it had arrived. Still, she didn’t intend to give him the satisfaction of receiving help from Jeffery, not when the man

Silence lingered, stretching between them. Rita’s fingers traced the edge of the phone, her mind spinning. There was something about Jeffery's response that unsettled her—and intrigued her.She had expected resistance, doubt, even hesitation. But instead, he had accepted the challenge without a second thought.“You’re brave,” she muttered, her voice soft.Jeffery’s chuckle came through the line, warm and self-assured. “It’s just who I am.”Rita felt a strange heat rise in her cheeks. She didn’t expect this from him. Boldness like that was... unexpected, and oddly attractive.She cleared her throat, forcing the thoughts away. “It’s going to be dangerous, you know.”Jeffery’s reply was instant. “Doesn’t matter.”Her heart skipped a beat. She could feel the intensity of his words, and it caught her off guard.“You’re impossible,” she said, attempting to regain control.“I can be,” he teased.Rita took a breath, steadying herself. “I believe you.” Then, after a pause, she added, “But you

Jeffery bid Rita farewell, offering her his arm for a brief stroll through the manor grounds. The night air was cool, crisp, carrying the scent of damp earth and distant flowers. They spoke little, but the silence was comfortable. When they reached the gates, she hesitated, as if wanting to say something, but in the end, she simply nodded. He returned the gesture and walked off into the night.By the time he arrived at his own manor, the warmth of the evening had faded. He loosened his tie, shrugging off the tailored suit with relief. The fabric had felt stifling all night. A warm bath came next, the heat soaking into his muscles, easing the tension in his shoulders.Afterward, dressed in simple, comfortable clothes, he settled into his study. The room was dimly lit, the only illumination coming from the flickering lamp beside him. He had intended to meditate, to delve into the alchemical inheritance carved into his mind, but his thoughts lingered elsewhere.Rita.She had stood u

The celebration carried on, with Rita introducing Jeffery to influential guests. He noticed how some young, eligible men shot him glares, clearly envious of the attention Rita was giving him. He ignored them. The female guests were equally interested, but none held his gaze—none could match Rita’s splendor.As the night wound down, guests left one after another until only Rita, Jeffery, and Mr. Prescott remained in the manor.Rita sat with Prescott, discussing matters in low tones, while Jeffery stood off to the side, sipping his wine. His eyes never left Prescott’s chest. The black smoke curling from the old man’s lungs was worse than before—thicker, heavier. Decay was setting in fast.Jeffery exhaled sharply and set his glass down. He had to say something.“Your lungs are deteriorating,” he stated flatly, cutting through the quiet. “You need immediate treatment.”Prescott’s expression darkened. He turned to Jeffery, his jaw tight.“I’ve had enough of your nonsense,” he snapped. “Yo
