Chapter 103
The screen was the only source of light in Alex’s quiet study, casting a pale blue glow over his face."Nothing," Silas’s gravelly voice came through the speaker, sounding tired and defeated. "It’s like trying to trace a ghost, Young Master. I searched every secret record, every hidden database, and every account we inherited from your father. The name *Kings Club* doesn't exist anywhere."Alex didn't look away from the desk. His gaze remained fixed on the pitch-black silk envelope sitting beside his laptop like a dark warning."A group operating at that level doesn't leave a paper trail, Silas," Alex said calmly. "Try the old physical archives. The off-grid vaults.""I did," Silas replied, the sound of thick paper rustling over the phone. "And that's where things get terrifying. I found old records of sudden spikes in money, famous people who vanished, and untraceable bank transfers. Every powerful person rumored to have attended a Kings Club event ends up in one of three ways."Alex
Chapter 102
Alex moved through every single room on the ground floor, his footsteps as quiet as a falling leaf, double-checking the locks and windows. His phone buzzed in his hand. It was Silas. "Young Master, I'm reviewing the main security logs right now," Silas said, his voice tense and rushed. "It doesn't make any sense. Every door sensor remained sealed. The glass sensors didn't pick up a single alert. The thermal cameras show no heat signatures entering the property." "Check the timing," Alex said softly, stopping outside the door of his own study. "Look for a gap in the recording." A long silence followed on the line, broken only by the sound of Silas rapidly typing on a keyboard. Then, the old man gasped. "Three minutes," Silas whispered in shock. "The feed repeats itself for three full minutes. It wasn't a hardware failure. Someone used a military ghost-jamming device near the house." "A three-minute blind spot," Alex murmured. He pushed the study door open and looked at the polishe
Chapter 101
The heavy oak door had barely clicked shut behind Chloe when Alex moved. He didn't waste a second. He pulled his smartphone from his inner jacket pocket and tapped a single encrypted key. The call didn't even ring; it connected instantly. "Young Master," Silas’s deep, gravelly voice came through the speaker. "Is everything alright? The perimeter sensors in the North District just reported a strange pulse." "Silas," Alex said, his voice as cold as steel. "We have a leak. Someone was inside the villa." There was a sudden, sharp intake of breath on the other end of the line. "Inside? That's impossible, sir. The security grid was updated yesterday with military-grade jamming field—" "They didn't break a window, and they didn't cut the wires," Alex interrupted, walking over to the wide glass window that overlooked the dark garden. "They left something on my desk. Right under my nose." Silence hung heavy over the phone for two long seconds. "What did they leave?" "An envelope," Alex s
Chapter 100
The envelope shouldn't have existed. Alex stood by the large desk in the quiet study, staring down at a heavy object resting on the polished dark wood. It was an elegant, pitch-black envelope, sealed with a crest of dark red wax. There was no stamp. No return address. No sender’s name. Just a single line of gold lettering across the front: *To the Invisible Guest.* Chloe walked into the room, holding two warm mugs of tea. She had spent the entire evening managing calls from the press and the board, her eyes tired but filled with relief after the day's victory over Richard. "What's that?" Chloe asked, setting a mug on the desk. She leaned over to look at the dark envelope. "Did a courier drop that off? I didn't hear the gate chime." "It was on my desk when I walked in," Alex said smoothly, his voice calm, though his mind was already alert. He had checked every window and security sensor in the villa. Nothing had been tripped. Whoever had placed this letter had passed through three
Chapter 99
Sarah Jenkins used to laugh at women who cried over coffee.Now she was one of them.Three blocks from Miller Tech, in a cramped, dimly lit coffee shop, she sat alone in a corner booth.Her expensive designer dress was ruined, soaked at the hem, and her makeup was smudged. Only weeks ago, she had been living in luxury, flying on private jets and looking down on everyone. Now, after being publicly exposed for her fake child stunt and dumped by every wealthy man in the city, she was completely penniless.She stared at the cold cup of coffee in front of her, her fingers trembling with pure, bitter rage."It's all his fault," Sarah whispered to herself, her fingernails digging into the fake leather of the seat. "Alex Reed. That worthless loser... he ruined my life."The front door of the coffee shop opened, setting off a small brass chime. A man in a dark coat stepped inside, pulling his hat low over his face. He looked around the empty shop before his eyes landed on Sarah.Richard Miller
Chapter 98
Richard Miller hadn't slept in three days.Every time he closed his eyes, he saw the headline again — his own face, under a single damning word: EXPOSED.A loud slam echoed through the high-ceilinged room."Look at this!" Board Director Evans barked, throwing a stack of newspapers onto the long mahogany table. "Look at it, Richard! The front page of every financial paper in the city!"Sitting at the far end of the table, Richard Miller looked ten years older than he had a week ago. The sharp, arrogant billionaire who used to look down on everyone was gone. His hair was messy, his eyes were bloodshot, and his hands trembled slightly as he adjusted his expensive silk tie.Across the room, Chloe sat in the main executive chair. She wore a tailored black suit, her posture straight and her face calm. Alex stood quietly in the shadows behind her shoulder, wearing his simple driver’s uniform, his face completely unreadable."I am waiting for an explanation, Uncle Richard," Chloe said. Her vo
