Moments LaterMartha’s eyes burned with rage as she snatched the mediation letter from Matthew’s hand. The paper crumpled under her fingers before she tore it into pieces like slicing through old scars.“Enough of his hypocrisy!” she spat, voice trembling with fury. Shreds of paper rained down between them. “I want nothing to do with his filthy money!”Matthew flinched, but quickly recovered, his face twisting into false concern. “Aunty, please… He’s not trying to hurt you. He just—he just wants to compensate you. That’s all.”Martha’s chest heaved, her hands still shaking. The betrayal, the years of abandonment, it all clawed at her.“Compensate?” she hissed. “Where was his ‘compensation’ when I was alone, raising his sick child? When I begged hospitals, scraping together every cent while he lived his new life? Where was he then?”Matthew’s jaw tightened. His eyes darted to little Kelvin, frail and quiet at the corner of the room, oblivious to the storm of adult grudges.“At least t

The next Morning at Aunty Martha's house.The worn dining table creaked slightly as the four of them sat down, Jaden, Aunt Martha, Julie, and little Kelvin. The faint smell of toast and eggs drifted through the modest home, blending with the quiet warmth of family.Today wasn’t just any day—it was Kelvin’s birthday.The boy's pale face brightened with excitement, eyes wide as he clutched the small gift box Julie slid across the table.“Happy birthday, champ,” Julie said with a soft smile. “Hope you like it.”“Thank you, Aunt Julie!” Kelvin grinned, already tearing at the wrapping with eager fingers.A small, quiet chuckle escaped Jaden, but his sharp eyes never softened fully. The boy's smile was a temporary escape from the storm brewing beneath the surface of this family.Suddenly, Martha wiped at her face, but the tears were already spilling. Her voice cracked as she whispered, “If… if I could trade my life to cure Kelvin’s illness… I’d do it. Gladly.”The room fell silent, tension
Chapter 118
At the Thornfell Mansion The grand hall of the Thornfell estate reeked of wealth, control… and blood. Marble floors gleamed under the crystal chandelier, yet the air was heavy with the scent of violence.Agatha Thornfell stood by the towering windows, her sharp heels clicking softly as she tapped the floor with impatience. Her presence alone was suffocating—dressed in a midnight black suit, a venomous smirk playing on her lips.A servant scurried in, his head bowed so low it nearly brushed the polished floor. He dropped to his knees, holding out a sleek black folder with trembling hands.“Master… everything you requested on Jaden Rift,” the servant reported, voice shaky.Agatha snatched the folder, flipping through its contents. Her eyes narrowed with each page—military records, combat accolades, special ops reports—the boy was no longer a stray.“Hmph… disappeared for years… so that bastard ran to the army,” she sneered, her voice dripping with contempt. “And now he crawls back, thi

Jaden leaped down from the car roof like a phantom descending from the clouds. His boots hit the ground with a solid thud that echoed in Damian Blake’s ears louder than the pounding of his own terrified heartbeat.Before Damian could react, Jaden seized him by the collar, lifting him effortlessly off his feet like a rag doll. Their faces were inches apart.“No one’s coming to save you,” Jaden whispered with a deadly calm, his grip tightening, his eyes dark and merciless.Suddenly—VROOOOM!A roaring engine tore through the still air as a military jeep screeched to a halt nearby, dust swirling in the headlights.The car door slammed open, and out stepped a broad-shouldered man in a crisp military uniform, his face stern, his boots polished to a mirror shine. Dozens of armed soldiers followed, fanning out in formation like trained wolves awaiting orders.Captain Kelvin had arrived.Damian’s eyes lit up with desperate hope as he stumbled forward, straightening his wrinkled collar, forcin

Jaden stood tall amidst the battered courtyard, his voice slicing through the tense air like a blade.“The Blake family has no more use for vicious wives. And from today onward — no one threatens my people.” His eyes gleamed coldly as his words settled like a noose around the Blake name.Meanwhile…Just beyond the chaos, Damian Blake sat hunched behind the wheel of his black luxury sedan, knuckles white on the steering wheel, sweat beading on his forehead. His normally composed face twisted with desperation as he maneuvered toward the estate’s back gate, the hum of the engine roaring low like a beast in flight.“Damn it… damn it…” he muttered, peering through the rearview mirror. “That lunatic took out Captain Steven — a Second Lieutenant, former special ops — like it was nothing.”His voice shook as fear clawed at his chest.“If that monster stays… my family’s finished…”But Damian had underestimated the predator he was dealing with.In the distance, Jaden’s sharp senses pricked at t
Chapter 115
Jaden stood tall, his foot pressing down lightly on Captain Steven’s back as both Steven and Elder Hart knelt in the debris-strewn courtyard. His expression was calm, unreadable — but the faint smirk tugging at the corner of his lips promised nothing good.“Tell me…” Jaden’s voice was soft, dangerous. “How exactly should I kill you two? I like options.”Steven's face paled, his swollen cheek still burning from earlier. “P-Please… we’re not your real enemies… The Blakes sent us… We're just pawns,” he stammered, eyes darting with fear.“Right, pawns,” Jaden repeated, the smirk deepening. His gaze shifted to Elder Hart, whose face was bloodied, pride shattered.The old man gulped, bowing his head lower. “I— I was blind… I swear, I’ll disappear. You’ll never see me again. Please… mercy.”Jaden chuckled softly, as if amused by their desperation. His lips parted, ready to reply—Slash!A silver glint flashed behind him — silent, fast, precise — aiming for his neck.But Jaden’s instincts wer
