Chapter 262: A Shattered Reality
The world felt like it was spinning. Gregory’s mind swam in a fog, his vision flickering between darkness and light. He tried to push through it, tried to get his bearings, but the wave of energy that had pulsed through him left his body weak and disoriented.His breath came in shallow gasps as he struggled to open his eyes. He could feel the cold stone of the wall against his back, but everything else was a blur. Sounds echoed in his ears, muffled, distorted, but one thing was clear: the voice had come from behind him, close, too close.“Gregory…” the voice whispered again, soft but urgent. “You need to wake up.”It wasn’t the figure who had attacked them. This voice was different. It was familiar. A voice from his past, one he couldn’t quite place, but the tone was unmistakable.With a final, desperate effort, Gregory managed to blink his eyes open. The room around him was dimly lit, the shadows dancing on the walls, but there was something off about it. The air was thick, heavy wit
Chapter 261: The Hidden Hand
The voice that echoed down the tunnel sent a shiver racing up Gregory’s spine. He didn’t need to see the owner of the voice to know that they were in grave danger. He could feel it in the air, the tension, the danger, the darkness closing in on them.Tristan’s face twisted with rage, his eyes narrowing into slits as he motioned for the group to hurry. “Move! Now!” His voice was sharp, commanding, urgent.Naomi, ever the tactician, was already looking for an escape route. She grabbed Gregory’s arm, yanking him forward with surprising strength. “We need to make it to the end of the tunnel,” she said, her tone steady, despite the panic creeping into her eyes.“There’s no time to waste. We don’t know who that was.”But Gregory’s feet felt like lead, his body frozen with the weight of the voice that had called out to him. The realization was settling in: someone out there knew him. Someone knew exactly who he was, and they wanted him.The thought made his stomach twist into a tight knot. “
Chapter 260: The Unseen Enemy
The knock on the door felt like an eternity stretching out, every second burning with the weight of what was to come. Gregory’s breath caught in his throat as he glanced at his father, who still seemed paralyzed by the shock of everything happening.Naomi, however, was already in motion, her sharp gaze locked on the door. “We can’t stay here,” she said, her voice steady but laced with urgency.Gregory didn’t need any more prompting. The fear that had been simmering in him since he first learned of his true lineage now boiled over. This wasn’t just a family squabble anymore; this was a fight for their lives.Tristan was already moving toward the back exit, his body tense, clearly ready for whatever awaited them outside. “We need to get to the safe house,” he said, his tone grim. “We can’t risk staying here.”“Safe house?” Gregory asked, his voice tight with confusion. He had no idea what they were talking about, but he didn’t have time to question it now.Naomi turned to him, her eyes
Chapter 259: The streamline
The air outside was thick with smoke. The explosion had sent a tremor through the entire mansion, and the distant wail of sirens could be heard approaching.Gregory’s mind raced as he tried to make sense of the chaos unfolding around him. What had just happened? Who was behind this?His father, Samuel, was still rooted to the spot, staring at the door like he was frozen in place. Gregory knew that whatever was coming next, they weren’t prepared for it. Not by a long shot.Gregory quickly turned to Naomi. Her face had turned ashen, but her eyes remained sharp, calculating. There was no panic in her demeanor, just cold, composed determination. “What are you thinking?” Gregory asked, though he already had a hunch.Naomi stepped toward the window and peeked through the thick drapes. “It’s happening,” she murmured, almost to herself. “It’s finally happening.”“What is?” Gregory demanded, stepping up behind her.“The game,” she said, turning to face him with a grim expression. “Everything w
Chapter 258: The Crossroads of Fate
Gregory watched his father, Samuel, with a mixture of fear and disbelief. His eyes, once full of life and energy, were now hollow, drained by years of manipulation, fear, and missed opportunities.Samuel stood at the center of the room, his hands trembling as if he were fighting an internal battle. Gregory had never seen him like this, this wasn’t the strong, decisive man who had once commanded respect.This was a man who had been beaten down by forces far greater than his own strength. Naomi, standing to the side, had her arms crossed over her chest, her gaze unwavering on Samuel.She didn’t speak, but her presence loomed over him like a shadow. Tristan, on the other hand, was silent, but his eyes gleamed with anticipation. He was waiting for something, and Gregory couldn’t shake the feeling that whatever came next would change everything.“Make a choice, Samuel,” Naomi’s voice cut through the tension. It was calm, but there was an edge to it that made Gregory shiver.“You’ve been gi
Chapter 257: The Unseen Hand
The door to the warehouse slammed open once more, this time with such force that the entire structure seemed to tremble under the impact. For a moment, everyone in the room went still, as though caught in the sudden gust of air that accompanied the entrance of the new figure.He was taller than the man who had walked in before, broad-shouldered, and dressed in a crisp suit that looked far too expensive for a place like this. His eyes, however, were cold, cold in a way that made Gregory’s skin prickle with a sense of dread.The man didn’t waste time with pleasantries. His gaze immediately found Gregory’s father, then shifted to the woman who had spoken earlier, and finally settled on Gregory.There was no mistaking the calculation in his expression, as if he were mentally noting every detail of the scene unfolding before him.“You’ve been busy, haven’t you?” the man remarked, his voice smooth, carrying an air of authority that demanded attention.Gregory’s father straightened, his face
