 That evening, Joaquin arrived at the Suarez estate. Rick was already there to greet him and guided him toward Miguel’s office.

Once inside, Rick gestured toward the sofa.

“You’re back,” Miguel said.

He stood from his swivel chair and sat down again—this time on the single-seater sofa near Joaquin.

“Yes,” Joaquin replied.

“I hope you’re ready now, Joaquin. The Blue Ranking Competition is not something to take lightly. You need to take this seriously.”

Joaquin exhaled deeply, clenching his fists.

    "You should stay at the mansion now, Joaquin. You too, Jasmine," Javier offered, his tone casual but hopeful.The two siblings exchanged a brief glance. The party was still in full swing, though the wave of attention that had swarmed them earlier had finally begun to fade. The constant introductions, questions, and handshakes had slowed down, at least for now.They sat quietly at their table, speaking in hushed tones away from the crowd.“I appreciate the offer, Mr. Villareal,” Joaquin said, keeping his voice measured. “But we already have our own place. A home.”Javier chuckled lightly, though there was a hint of disappointment in his smile. “I know it’s still hard for you. But you can start calling me ‘father,’ Joaquin.&r

    The night hadn’t even reached its peak, yet Joaquin already felt drained.He’d endured far more brutal training sessions in the past—nights of bruises and fire coursing through his veins—but somehow, he’d much rather return to that than survive another hour in this suffocating gathering.All around him were people eager to shake his hand, flatter him, and question him. Every conversation felt like a transaction in disguise, and every smile was paired with the same curiosity masked as politeness:What happened to you?Why were you only introduced now?Where have you been all this time?And Joaquin’s answer never changed.

    Joaquin adjusted the collar of his charcoal gray polo as he stepped out of the car. His eyes lingered on the grand entrance of the five-star hotel that loomed before him, its golden light spilling out onto the marble steps like an invitation—and a warning. The very air around it seemed to buzz with expectation.He could already hear the muffled hum of the event inside: clinking glasses, classical music, laughter too polished to be sincere.Jasmine smoothed out the pleats of her emerald green dress and stood beside him. “Are you ready?” she asked, her voice low but firm. “We can never go back after this, Joaquin. The moment we enter that place, everything changes.”Joaquin’s face hardened. “I know.”Tonight wasn’t just

    “I can’t believe this! What the hell are you doing, James?” Gracia snapped at her son, pacing back and forth in the living room. She puffed aggressively on her cigarette, frustration written all over her face. “Your father already met him!”“What?” James asked in disbelief, rising from his seat. “Are you sure?”Gracia stopped and glared at him. “I am—because I was there! I saw them with my own eyes!”She threw herself onto the sofa, crushing the cigarette into the ashtray until it nearly disintegrated.“How long are you going to keep chasing Serena like some loyal dog, huh? You're forgetting what’s more im

  • Chapter 247: The Threat Within

    Jasmine paced nervously outside their father’s office. Her stomach was in knots, and her mind kept replaying all the worst possibilities—what could be said, what truths might be revealed, and what kind of damage those truths might bring.Then came a voice, sharp and venomous."What are you doing here?!"She froze and turned quickly. Her steps faltered when she saw who it was—Gracia. Panting, fuming, and glaring at her like she was filth on the ground.“Gracia,” Jasmine greeted coldly.Gracia jabbed a finger toward her face. “Leave! What now? You planning to leech more money off my husband?!”Jasmine blinked at the accusation, but then smirked, unbothered. &ldqu

    Joaquin watched the man in front of him in silence. Javier Villareal sat comfortably in a single chair, his gaze locked onto Joaquin like he was reading him—measuring him.This man was his father. Javier Villareal.And this wasn’t their first meeting.Javier cleared his throat. “So, I guess… this is a bit awkward. I didn’t expect you to bring him here already, Jasmine,” he said, tone calm but deliberate.Joaquin’s brow furrowed. “What do you mean by that?”Jasmine shook her head. “I have my reasons. And besides, you’ve been asking about him for a while now. He deserves to know
