Hanging up, Harrison leaned back in his chair with a smug curl to his lips, tapping the phone against his palm as if savoring the news.

“Director Bobson just confirmed something for me,” he said, voice thick with satisfaction. “Jaden Rift has no one backing him except Morix Sable. And guess what? Sable’s father died just last week. He’s gone back to his hometown for the funeral. He won’t be back for a good while.”

Jones’s sharp eyes narrowed, and a slow, dangerous smile spread across his face. “So… Rift’s on his own. No guard dog. No safety net.” He leaned forward, voice dropping to a gleeful murmur. “Perfect. Mr. Hart, looks like you can go all out when you teach those two wretches a lesson.”

Harrison chuckled, the sound low and cruel. “Don’t worry, Mr. Morello. I’ll make sure they don’t just regret crossing you… they’ll wish they’d never even heard your name.”

Jones’s grin turned feral. “And when you do it, make sure they understand exactly who’s behind it. I want Selena Verrick bro

    Flushing as she realized how harsh her words had sounded, Selena shook her head quickly, her voice trembling but firm. “That’s not what I meant. They—”Emmanuel sliced through her protest like a blade. “They’re innocent. They were simply protesting your trucks for tearing up their roads. Your husband, on the other hand, deliberately assaulted them. That’s why I brought both of you in—to investigate this matter.”Before Selena could respond, Carlos strutted forward, a smug predator’s grin twisted over his bruised face. One hand clutched his swollen cheek, the other tucked casually in his pocket as though he owned the place. His eyes locked on Jaden with pure malice.“You little piece of trash,” Carlos snarled, his voice dripping venom. “You think you can lay a finger on us and get away with it? Do you have a death wish?”He turned his head slightly, addressing Emmanuel like they were old drinking buddies. “Vice-captain Ransom, this couple attacked thirty of my men. I’m demanding one mi

    After that, Selena and Jaden got back in their car and headed toward the park at Mount Blanchard to pick up the rest of their family.The drive was calm on the surface, but Selena kept glancing at Jaden. His face was unreadable, his eyes fixed on the road, his knuckles tapping the steering wheel in a slow, steady rhythm that betrayed the tension simmering beneath his calm.When they finally returned home, the air inside was warm and lively. Vane and Nora had already rolled up their sleeves, bustling around the kitchen as the fragrant scent of searing garlic and marinated meat filled the house. “You two sit down,” Vane called from the stove. “We’ve got dinner handled.”Selena managed a small smile, but before she could even take off her coat, the sharp chime of the doorbell cut through the moment.She went to open the door, expecting maybe a neighbor or a delivery. Instead, her eyes landed on a line of stern-faced men in dark police uniforms. Their badges gleamed under the porch light,

    Smack!Another slap straight to Carlos's face. His thickly-built body flew backward like a sack of cement tossed from a truck, crashing into two of his own men. The three of them went down hard, a tangle of limbs and curses, rolling over the dusty ground before groaning to a stop.The entire street went silent for a heartbeat. Then came the gasps—sharp, disbelieving, like the crowd had just seen someone drop a bull with a single swat.Carlos twitched, trying to push himself up, but his cheek was already swelling, blood pooling at the corner of his mouth. That one hit wasn’t just strong—it carried the kind of bone-deep force that made everyone watching rethink whether they even wanted to be here.The other thugs shifted uneasily, glancing at each other. None of them missed the way Carlos’s head had snapped back from that blow.Then one idiot finally found his courage—or maybe his stupidity. “You dare hit Carlos?” he roared, spit flying. “Get him, boys!”The command broke the tension. K

    Jackie’s cheek was already swelling, the skin an ugly shade of red and purple. Blood dripped in a slow trail from the corner of his mouth, but he swallowed his anger and stayed silent. Any retaliation here would only make things worse.From inside the car, Jaden’s gaze darkened. He glanced at Selena. “Stay here. I’ll be right back.” His voice was calm, but there was steel underneath.The thugs had already clocked them the moment their BMW rolled to a stop. This wasn’t some beat-up pickup pulling in. The gleaming black hood, the tinted windows—it screamed money. And everyone in the area knew exactly who could roll up like that. The president of Rift Corporation had arrived.Jaden stepped out, his sharp black coat catching the light. Carlos, a thickset man with curly hair and a predator’s grin, exchanged a quick look with his men. They all turned toward Jaden, their eyes narrowing in unison.Jackie staggered over, his voice laced with respect despite the pain twisting his face. “Mr. Ri

    "Is there any way we can avoid that road in the future? As for the injured drivers and the detained trucks, maybe I could go down there and negotiate with those people myself?" Selena’s voice was tense but controlled, her knuckles whitening as her grip on the phone tightened.On the other end, Jackie let out a long, weary sigh that carried more weight than words. "No chance, boss. That road’s the only way in and out if we want to reach the site. There’s no detour unless you’re planning to drive halfway across the city and burn hours we don’t have."Selena’s brows pulled together, the crease between them cutting deeper with every word. "Have you called the police?""We did." Jackie’s voice dipped, frustration bleeding through. "But either they’re swamped or they just don’t want to get involved. And frankly? I think it’s the second one. They’re not coming anytime soon. This isn’t random trouble either… these guys know exactly what they’re doing. If we don’t handle it fast, demolition st
