2026-03-28 23:58:19There was a slight, almost imperceptible flicker in the cold eyes of Elijah Langston, but that only caused him to tighten his grip around the Shadow of Death’s
throat.The legendary assassin choked against the grip, frantically struggling to say, “I’ve been in this bloody business since you were a mere child. At least, we used to be genuine experts back then compared to you arrogant younglings who use despicable, dirty tricks now... I’ve been a force with the Whispering Shadow Allian

The old man placed his empty glass back on the table.“I have a business to inspect in an hour.”George raised his head. “I’m not afraid. The Good Doctor already trusted me with the truth about his identity. Whatever is happening, I can handle knowing about it.”Old Mr. Carrington paused before a bitter smile gradually appeared on his face.“Children always speak boldly about the monster beneath the bed, at least until the day they finally stand face-to-face with whatever was truly hiding there.”George stared at him, completely unable to make sense of the warning.The old man turned towards the door but stopped once more. “There are people and forces in this world far bigger than Brooklyn Heights, George. You have a family, don’t you?”George’s expression became more guarded.“Do you really want to drag them into dangers they were never meant to know existed?”The question wiped away some of the stubbo

Inside a private lounge at West Crest Restaurant in the West District, billionaire George Foster sat across a small table from Old Mr. Carrington, who quietly drank a glass of liquor while listening to one side of a phone conversation.“…which must be made possible. Decide on something before the day runs out,” George said firmly into the phone. “We have to bring Ms. DiLaurentis back for another interview, or we take the interview to her if that’s what it comes to.”He listened for several seconds before his expression tightened.“The Boss might not be around right now, but that doesn’t mean we disappoint him. Are we suddenly incapable of carrying out an instruction because he isn’t standing over our shoulders?”Another response came from the other end, prompting George to shake his head.“The Boss’s trip is private, and even I don’t know where he went. What I do know is that he gave us objectives before leaving, and those objectives must

Lisa fell silent, but Margaret continued without giving her a chance to respond.“It is my job as Serena’s mother to worry about her health, not yours. If I say my daughter is healthy, then she is healthy. Your job is to keep her focused on her work and stop filling her head with nonsense.”Lisa looked back towards the Audi, where Serena still sat with her head lowered.“I understand.”“Good. I’m hanging up.”“Wait.”Margaret paused impatiently.Lisa hesitated for a moment before asking the question that had been sitting in her mind.“Does any of this have something to do with Julius? Ms. DiLaurentis still doesn’t seem to remember anything about him after the accident,” Lisa continued. “She doesn’t remember him at all.”“You mind your damn business!” Margaret exploded so loudly that Lisa had to pull the phone slightly away from her ear.“My daughter doesn’t remember that trash, and that is the

Serena placed both hands against the roof of the Audi and lowered her head, trying to steady herself.“Something is wrong with me, Lisa,” she said quietly. “I thought I was only seeing things, but now I’m hearing them too. Things that aren’t there.”Lisa stepped closer. “What exactly did you see?”Serena slowly raised her head. The swelling around her eyes was more noticeable now, and tears had already begun gathering along them.“I need to see someone.”“Boss…”“A doctor, a psychiatrist... I don’t know.” Serena quickly wiped beneath one eye before the tear could fall. “The doctor at the hospital said I was fine after the accident, but I can feel that I’m not. Something is wrong inside my head.”Lisa released a slow breath before reminding her, “The doctor also told you to rest for the rest of the week. If we had listened properly, I should have come here alone today.”Serena looked towards her.“You ha

Serena stumbled backwards and fell hard onto the floor, scrambling away from the man before she even understood what she was doing.Her breathing came fast as she pushed herself farther back with both hands. When she finally looked towards the chair again, there was no one there.Only her purse remained on the floor beside the seat she had knocked over during the fall.Around the conference table, chairs scraped against the floor as the TrustMed executives hurried to their feet.Dr. Helena Elis reacted faster than anyone else and quickly made her way around the table, with concern written across her face.“Ms. DiLaurentis, are you alright?”Lisa had already dropped beside Serena and taken hold of her arm. “Boss? What happened?”Serena barely looked at her as she stared towards the empty space beside the chair.“Did you see that?”Lisa followed her gaze. “See what?”Serena looked again, but the

Together, they crossed the parking area and approached the main entrance.A broad-shouldered security officer stationed beside the glass doors noticed them almost immediately. His professional expression changed slightly as his eyes settled on Serena.“Ms. Serena DiLaurentis?”She slowed. “Yes.”The officer immediately stepped forward and opened the door.“The executives are expecting you upstairs, ma’am. The interview will be held in the main conference room. I’ll take you there.”Serena and Lisa exchanged a look.Lisa discreetly turned her wrist enough to check the time.Her brows rose because they were almost an hour early.She looked at Serena again, and this time Serena clearly understood what had surprised her.The executives were already waiting?Neither woman said anything as they followed the security officer into the lobby.The interior of TrustMed’s headquarters did little to make Serena feel more relaxed. There was none of the disorder she would have expected from a newly
