The moment Daisy got back to the hotel, she realized she had run out of her prescribed vitamins. Not wanting to bother anyone, she decided to go to the pharmacy herself. It was a quiet evening, and she hoped to get there and back without drawing attention.

As she stepped out, pulling her jacket tighter against the cool breeze, a faint uneasiness settled in. She couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was following her. Glancing over her shoulder, she spotted a car moving slowly, its headlights dimmed but staying close enough to be suspicious.

Her fingers trembled as she fumbled for her phone. She quickly texted Franklin:

“Someone’s following me. I’m walking to the pharmacy near 7th Street. Can you come?”

Franklin’s reply was immediate.

“Stay where you are. Don’t move. I’ll be there.”

Minutes felt like hours as Daisy stood near the pharmacy entrance, her heart pounding. When Franklin finally arrived, pulling up in his sleek black car, she let out a shaky breath. He got out quickly, his

The boardroom of Miles Empire was filled with tension. The long table in the center of the room was surrounded by executives, some whispering among themselves, others sitting in stiff silence.The news of Franklin Miles’ return had traveled fast, and everyone was eager to see what would happen next.The double doors opened, and Franklin walked in, his steps firm and his expression serious. He wore a dark suit that made him look both confident and in control. Behind him were Deborah, Vera, Mr. Russell, and Mr. Stephen. They followed closely, their faces calm but focused.Franklin didn’t waste time. He walked straight to the head of the table and stood tall, placing his hands on the surface as he looked around the room. His eyes scanned each person, taking in their reactions.“Good afternoon,” Franklin began, his voice clear and steady. “Thank you all for coming. I know the last few weeks have been chaotic, to say the least. But today, things change. Today, I am officially announcing my

The café where Daisy and Richmond were finally meeting was quiet, the soft hum of conversations and clinking cups filling the air.Daisy sat at a corner table, her hands resting on her lap, fidgeting nervously. She had texted Richmond the day before, asking to meet. To her surprise, he had agreed, though she wasn’t sure if it was out of guilt or curiosity.When Richmond walked in, Daisy spotted him immediately. He was wearing a leather jacket over a plain t-shirt, his usual smirk absent from his face. His steps were slow as he approached her table.“You wanted to talk?” Richmond said, his voice calm but distant as he pulled out a chair and sat down.Daisy nodded, her throat itching. She had rehearsed what she wanted to say a hundred times, but now that he was here, the words felt jumbled. “Yes. Thank you for coming.”Richmond leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms. “What’s this about, Daisy? I don’t have all day.”Her hands gripped the edge of the table as she took a deep breath.
CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND THREE
Jake walked into Franklin’s office earlier that day, holding a small USB drive tightly in his hand. Franklin had been sitting behind his desk, reviewing documents, but when he saw Jake, he set the papers down and leaned forward.“Jake,” Franklin said, his voice calm but curious.Jake hesitated, his fingers fidgeting with the drive. “I… I couldn’t keep this anymore. I had to come and show it to you.” He placed the USB on the desk, sliding it toward Franklin.Franklin picked it up, examining it. “What exactly is in this?”“Recordings,” Jake said, his voice low. “Recordings of Daisy and my mom. She… she’s the one who planned everything. She told Daisy to trap you, to use the baby as a way to control you.”For a moment, Franklin didn’t move. He just stared at Jake, his jaw tightening. “You’re serious?”Jake nodded. “I swear. I found the recorded conversations. I didn’t know if I should tell you at first, but I couldn’t live with it anymore.”Franklin looked at him for a long time before s
CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND TWO
The courtroom was packed the next morning. Every seat was occupied, and the room hummed with whispers and muffled conversations.Reporters lined the back wall, their cameras ready to capture every moment of the high-profile case. At the center of it all was Franklin Miles and his team, determined to reclaim Miles' Empire and bring justice to those who had tried to destroy it.Ashley in front of their legal table, her briefcase resting neatly beside her. She adjusted her blazer and took a deep breath, glancing at Franklin, who gave her a nod of encouragement. She was nervous but also ready to fight. This wasn’t just about saving the company; it was about protecting everything her team had worked for.Bill Ford sat on the other side of the courtroom with his lawyer. His face was stony, but his eyes darted around the room, betraying his unease. Beside him were Prof. Arjun, Ivan, Viktor, Igor, and the Insider, all looking equally tense. The charges against them were serious, and they knew

In the evening Franklin stood outside the large warehouse. The cold air stung his face, but he didn’t care.This was the moment he had been waiting for, a chance to finally put an end to everything Bill Ford and his crew had done.Beside him were Conor, Russell, Stephen, and a team of armed security guards. Everyone was focused, ready for what was about to happen.Conor glanced at Franklin. “We’ve got the building surrounded. No way for them to escape,” he said in a low voice.Franklin nodded. “Good. Let’s move in.”With a signal from Conor, the security team moved forward, silently positioning themselves around the warehouse.Franklin motioned for Russell and Stephen to follow him as he pushed open the main door. The sound of the door creaking echoed in the quiet space, and inside, they saw Bill Ford standing at a table with Prof. Arjun, Ivan, Viktor, Igor, and the Insider.The men froze when they noticed Franklin and his team. For a moment, no one spoke. The tension in the air was s
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-NINE
The door creaked open, and Conor stepped inside. His look was serious, and his eyes glanced around the room, quickly locking onto Franklin.The room was quieter now, with just Franklin, Vera, Deborah, Mr. Hughes, and Ashley seated around the table.Franklin stood up immediately, his hands resting firmly on the table. “What did you find out?” he asked.Conor crossed the room and stood beside Franklin, lowering his voice but still loud enough for everyone to hear. “The Insider met Bill Ford. They’re working together, as we suspected. He gave Bill a full update. Told him we’re on to them, mentioned the CCTV footage and the fingerprints.”Franklin’s brows furrowed. “Did they say anything about their next action?”Conor nodded, his jaw tightening. “Bill Ford is angry, but he’s not giving up. He’s planning to cover his tracks, maybe destroy the evidence we have against them. He’s got Viktor, Igor, and Ivan in on it, and Professor Arjun is helping him figure out the technical side.
