Chapter 226
Unknowingly, Esther’s gaze began to drift—starting from Harvey’s broad chest, still glistening with moisture, down the lines of his firm abdomen. Her eyes stayed fixed, as if unable to look away. Droplets of water, falling slowly from the tips of his hair, traced the contours of his body, breaking the silence with the faintest of sounds.Her awareness returned when Harvey lifted his head, looking at her with no expression. Esther’s heartbeat quickened, but she forced herself to avert her eyes. Yet that look made her realize—Harvey’s face, with its chiseled jaw and cold eyes, was just as captivating as his body.From a distance, Jeane stood with her arms folded. A faint smile touched her lips, like a spectator who already knew how the story would end. “So, you like him too,” she murmured softly, as if savoring the moment.Jeane eventually stopped walking. She chose not to follow Esther and Harvey, letting the two have their own time.Esther drew a deep breath, her fingers brushing the

“Is this how you treat women? Ignoring them, as if my words were nothing but empty air?”Esther’s tone sharpened, cynical and piercing. Her eyebrows furrowed sharply, her features hardening. In the principles she upheld, women always came first. And any man who dared to ignore her—especially in front of others—was nothing more than a nuisance to be eliminated.She took a half step forward, her shadow falling on the surface of the pond, swaying with the ripples.“If you’re truly a man,” she said accusingly, “act like a gentleman. You’re making me very uncomfortable.”In the water, Harvey remained motionless. His muscles relaxed, but his gaze briefly lifted, cold and unreadable—like staring at a snake that had suddenly entered its den. The air between them tensed, thin yet piercing. Harvey stopped his movement. His body remained floating in the water, calm, yet there was hidden strength behind every submerged muscle. Slowly, he turned toward Esther—his gaze sharp, as cold as newly s

Harvey and his men resume their disguise as tourists. The casual clothes and unhurried pace disguised the tension behind their mission.They disperse like shadows disappearing in a crowd.Allison and Alex moved towards the luxury resort on the beach, blending in with the group of tourists carrying surfboards. The crashing waves and the salty smell of the sea set the scene for their search.Jordan, with a wide brimmed hat covering his face, walks up the path to the hill. A light breeze from high above brings the scent of pine and the sound of wild birds, but his eyes remain alert.Meanwhile, Rein stayed in the city center. He wandered through alleys and cafes, hoping the children they had rescued would reveal a few secrets.On a metal chair in the park, Harvey leaned back. His legs stretched out casually, head slightly raised, his eyes sweeping the pale blue sky above him. A cell phone was pressed to his ear."What are the conditions on the coast?" he asked, his tone calm but commandin

Harvey sat on the wooden chair, his shoulders slightly leaning forward, hands folded casually in his lap. Although his posture seems relaxed, his eyes are sharp, like knives ready to peel secrets from the opponent in front of him.Across from him, Paul was "sitting"-if that position was even worth mentioning. His body was tilted helplessly, his shoulders fell limp, and his hands dangled like shabby dolls. The broken leg was bent in the wrong direction, giving his silhouette a horribly deformed feel.Paul's eyes were open, but they reflected nothing but emptiness. They were dead-completely dead-as if all vestiges of soul had been sucked out. His lips parted slightly, but not a single sound was born, even when Harvey threw words at him. It was like talking to a human shell... whose mind had been buried somewhere.Jordan appeared in the doorway, his breathing still regular but his pace quick, followed by Rein, Allison, and Alex. There was residual adrenaline on their faces-shoulders slig

"All this..." Paul raised the remote control in his hand, displaying it like a trophy. His lopsided grin widened even further."...are the bombs I've prepared! Enough to destroy an entire floor of this hospital!"Laughter broke from his mouth-loud, echoing in the cramped room. "Even for someone as strong as you, General... you won't survive this explosion."His thumb moved slowly toward the red button. His eyes stare unblinkingly at Harvey, as if savoring his opponent's last seconds.But before the button could be touched-Whoosh!Harvey vanished from sight. Only a gust of wind remained where he stood. In a split second, a shadow was already in front of Paul.Crack!A shrill scream split the air. Both of Paul's hands were twisted at impossible angles, the bones breaking instantly. The remote control came loose, falling and spinning on the floor.Paul screamed in pain as he jumped backwards. But his steps faltered, his breathing labored. His gaze rounded in confusion."What... is this?
Chapter 223-2
Two children armed with machetes lunged from opposite directions. Their eyes blazed with senseless impulse, and their movements were fast-but irregular.Harvey shifted to the side, barely visible as his body slid between their attacks. His right arm was raised, ready to slash back, but-he stopped. His gaze froze momentarily on the shoulder of one of the children.There was a strange bulge under his skin. A shoulder joint that shouldn't protrude outward like that. Dislocated.But the boy kept attacking with vigor, his face tight with pain, his eyes full of forced anger.Harvey chuckled softly. He quickly changed the direction of his attack. One twist of the body sent his foot sweeping across the floor, wrapping around the child's leg. The small body collapsed, and before he could get back up, Harvey slammed the side of his palm into the boy's nape.Silence. The boy was instantly unconscious.But the attacks did not stop. The clomping of little feet could be heard from all directions. T
