The room was still buzzing with whispers when Logan slid his card across the counter.

The auctioneer, a seasoned man who had seen countless boasts collapse under the weight of reality, raised his brows as the machine approved the transaction without hesitation.

One by one, the slips printed. The stamps of PAID IN FULL thundered through the hall louder than the mockery that had filled it earlier.

A stunned silence blanketed the room. Those who had moments ago jeered now stood still, some clutching their drinks tighter, others exchanging nervous glances.

Logan pocketed his card with deliberate calmness, not sparing even a glance at the sea of wide-eyed classmates who had been waiting to laugh at his downfall.

Those who had hurled the harshest words at him were the first to feel the weight of shame.

Their cheeks flushed as though the entire hall could see their malice.

They had mocked, whispered, and prayed for his disgrace, but now their tongues clung to the roofs of their mouths.

    The assassins who were now bruised and bloodied from Logan's strikes, quickly realized they were no match for him. One by one, they staggered back, clutching their wounds. Their mission had failed yet again.“Retreat!” one of them hissed, dragging his partner toward the exit.The others, seeing the fear in their comrades’ eyes and the fury blazing in Logan’s stance, followed suit. They fled down the hallways like shadows dissolving into the night, not daring to look back.None of them wanted to face the wrath of the man who had single-handedly dismantled their attack.Logan watched them vanish through the hospital doors, his grip still tight on the weapon he had snatched. His face was a mask of steel, but his heart pounded with one thought alone—Charlotte.He dropped the weapon and rushed back to where Charlotte lay on the floor, limp and pale, her head cradled gently by Antonio and a nurse.“She’s losing consciousness!” the nurse cried, her voice breaking under the pressure.Loga

    The night was eerily calm outside the hospital. A gentle breeze swayed the trees along the pavement, and the faint hum of city life in the distance gave no hint of the storm about to break. Inside, fluorescent lights illuminated the long corridors where patients and visitors moved about in hushed tones. But outside, the assassins were waiting.This time, they were determined. The last attempt had failed, and Harry had been furious. Yet instead of cutting them off, he had promised them a larger reward, more than what he had already paid. “No mistakes,” he had said. “I don’t care how you do it—Charlotte must not leave that hospital alive.”With the new promise of wealth and Harry’s wrath driving them, the assassins came prepared. Black jackets, concealed weapons, and a plan that left little room for escape. They fanned out strategically—some surrounding the hospital entrances to block any way out, while two others slipped quietly inside, blending with the night staff and visitor

    Harry continued to pace around the room, thinking of what to do next. Rage simmered beneath his skin, eating at him with every passing second. He had built his reputation on fear and dominance, yet recently he had been stripped of both.He leaned back in his leather chair, staring at the ceiling as his mind wrestled with one thought: revenge. He would not let it end this way. He would make Charlotte pay. He would make Logan pay. He would erase their smug faces from existence and reclaim the power that had slipped from his hands.Just then, a sharp buzzing sound broke through the silence. Harry frowned and glanced at the table where his phone lay vibrating. The number flashing on the screen was unfamiliar, but the pattern was one he recognized. He snatched it up quickly and pressed it to his ear.“Mr Sullivan,” a gravelly voice said on the other end, “we’ve found that bitch, Charlotte Brooks.”Harry’s heart skipped. He sat upright in his chair, every nerve in his body alert. “W

    Charlotte was rushed to the hospital.The doctors had run several tests.Barbara sat on one side of the room, her hands clasped tightly together in prayer. John paced slowly near the window, his brows furrowed in anxious thought. Logan stood at Charlotte’s side, his fingers interlaced with hers, trying to hide his own fears beneath a mask of strength.For days, Charlotte had been unwell, and the family’s anxiety had only grown heavier. When the doctors finally reentered the room, their faces softened with relief. One of them cleared his throat before speaking gently.“Mr. Brooks, Mrs. Brooks,” the doctor said with a calm smile, “after conducting a series of tests, we can confirm that Charlotte is pregnant.”The words seemed to echo in the air. For a second, silence consumed the room as though everyone was trying to process what had just been said. Then Logan’s face broke into a wide, almost boyish grin. He clasped Charlotte’s hand tighter, his eyes sparkling.“Pregnant?” he repeat

    Charlotte pulled back slightly, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “I have to show my parents immediately!” Without waiting for a response, she dashed toward the house, Logan following calmly behind her, carrying the neatly wrapped package. Her excitement was infectious; she could hardly contain herself.As she reached the front door, Charlotte fumbled with the keys for a moment, finally stepping inside and calling out, “Mom! Dad! You have to come see what Logan bought for me!”Barbara and John appeared almost immediately, curiosity written all over their faces. They were not expecting such urgency, nor could they guess the magnitude of the gift awaiting them. Charlotte beamed, holding the box up as if it were a treasure chest.Barbara’s eyes widened the instant she saw the gift. “Charlotte, what is this?” she asked, stepping closer. Her hands hovered over the package, hesitant to touch it until she knew more.Charlotte’s excitement bubbled over. “It’s from Logan! He got it for

    The announcement hit Harry like a physical blow. As the emcee’s words rang out, stating that Portal Construction was banned from all future conferences and would never again be permitted to participate, Harry’s face turned a sickly shade of pale. His earlier shock had been intense, but this new development plunged him into an even deeper pit of frustration and shame. The humiliation he felt this time was unlike anything he had experienced before—far worse than the initial sting of being overlooked.All eyes in the hall seemed to shift toward him. Attendees, judges, and colleagues, some of whom had previously been deferential or mildly envious, now watched with a mixture of judgment and curiosity. The smugness he had carried so confidently just hours ago had evaporated entirely, leaving only embarrassment and the realization of how publicly he had overestimated himself. His chest tightened as every stare dug into him, a physical manifestation of the shame consuming him.Harry lower
