However, his grin vanished instantly when he saw several burly men in black outside his door.

“What the hell—?! Who the fuck are you?!” He paled.

“You can call me ... Mr Judgement,” Logan sneered coldly.

Then he raised his leg and kicked Liam hard, sending him sprawling backward into the room.

Behind him, Kane waved his hand, and in a flash, the seven bodyguards charged in and quickly subdued Liam, whose butt was exposed to the air.

“The end of the world isn’t here yet! What the hell are you judging? Do you know who I am?! I’m Liam Hayes of Rhine Corporation! Offending me will be the last thing you ever do!”

Liam snarled in panic.

“I don’t care about the end of the world for others—but your world ending? That’s my business. And of course, I know who you are. Liam Hayes of Rhine Corporation — I came here exactly for you.”

Logan stepped into the room with his silver mask gleaming beneath the golden light.

He had deliberately turned the voice changer down several levels.

And obviously, Liam didn’t recognize him.

“What the hell do you want?! This is illegal trespassing!”

Liam was sweating bullets.

Facing these men with unknown intentions, his bravado started to crumble.

If he weren’t relying on his status as a Rhine Corporation executive, he would’ve already wet his pants.

Oh, no, well ... his pants weren’t on!

Logan dragged a chair across the floor, sat down elegantly opposite Liam, and took out a piece of paper.

“Illegal trespassing? Isn’t that your specialty?”

Logan sneered and began reading from the sheet.

“Liam Hayes, 33. Enjoys underground parties, drugs, gambling, and wife-swapping games.”

“On March 6th, you deceived your subordinate John Wales into bringing his wife, Amby Swan, to an underground party under the guise of giving him a raise, only to rape her.”

"On May 14th, pretending to lend money for a medical emergency, you met your 19-year-old cousin, Lyra Brown, at Roland Racetrack and forced her into having sex in the car."

"On July 22nd, at a masquerade ball, you got the wife of the President of the Spring Song Foundation drunk and assaulted her while she was unconscious."

Logan listed off several women Liam had victimized—names, dates, locations, photos, testimonies—every detail accounted for.

Liam trembled with fear.

How did this masked man know such secret details?

Even a top prosecutor wouldn’t find all these out, yet this guy before him had everything?!

“You’re framing me! That’s slander!” Liam tried to deny it all. “What proof do you even have?"

“Refusing to admit it? Well, doesn’t matter. Whether you admit it or not, it makes no difference.”

Logan raised a finger, and thousands of pictures and videos flickered across the gigantic screen in the room, all solid evidence of the crime Liam had committed so far.

Eyes popping out in horror, Liam instantly knew his darkest secrets were exposed.

Sweat streamed down his face as he pleaded, “No, no, please… let’s talk this out…”

“What do you want from me?” Liam asked, his voice cracking.

Logan tilted his head with a smirk. “Let’s play a little game.”

Liam blinked, confused. “W-What?”

“Truth... or punishment,” Logan said, dragging the chair closer to Liam.

“Answer, but be careful,” saying so, Logan pulled out a tablet and placed it before Liam.

One glance—and Liam broke out into a cold sweat.

The tablet contained a complete list of all his assets, even down to his bank balances.

He couldn’t believe his eyes—who the fuck was this masked man to know so much?!

“Maybe I’ll consider letting you leave with your tongue still in your mouth,” Logan continued with a smile, “however, if I don’t like what I hear, I’ll take one of your assets and give you a slap in return.”

“Got it?”

Liam, feeling helpless, nodded frantically.

Logan’s voice was razor-sharp as he launched the first question.

“How many underages have you blackmailed into bed?”

Liam choked, then stammered, "Ni… ni… ninety… s-se-seven…"

    Upon hearing this, the young secretary couldn’t help but stood froze, unable to process what Liam had done to enrage her superior so thoroughly.But luckily, she recovered soon enough. “Yes, Miss Rennard,” Melanie replied sharply with a crisp nod before quickly excusing herself and hurried off toward the HR department.Meanwhile, in the procurement department’s conference room, Liam Hayes reclined confidently in his seat. He and Ava were alone, surrounded by design boards, prototype catalogs, and samples from Elysian Bloom’s spring collection.Unaware that his downfall was imminent, Liam spoke smugly.“Ava, this partnership is foolproof. You’ll take over Elysian Bloom and Charlotte’s name will be nothing but dust in this city. How are you thanking me for it?”Meanwhile, he couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Ava’s ample cleavage, swallowing hard.Lifting his wine glass, Liam too a sip of the premium Franci red.“You know what, I’ll be promoted to the board soon after this deal.

    Logan and Claudia took the executive elevator to the top floor of the Rhine Group headquarters. The elevator opened to reveal the CEO’s office which was an expansive and exquisitely furnished domain. Its velvet-lined walls, rich walnut furniture, handcrafted chandelier, and floor-to-ceiling window overlooked the skyline of Elleville City. Logan stood before the glass, hands clasped behind his back. The weight of his new role didn’t intimidate him—it ignited him.Within moments, Claudia set a tray of Blue Mountain coffee on the meeting table and spread out several documents.She moved with graceful elegance and light steps, yet her actions were crisp and efficient, which made Logan glance her way.Before arriving here, Logan had carefully reviewed the background information on Claudia that Felix had sent him.The woman standing before him wasn’t just beautiful and strikingly well-proportioned, she also possessed a brilliant mind.As a top graduate from Stenford University, she had

    “What did you say?!” Ava looked horrified. “Apologize to Mr. Hayes! NOW!”“Logan, I’ll give you one last chance. Tell Charlotte to show up at my house tonight.” Stepping foward, Liam’s piggy face quivered with rage. “As for you—get on your knees and kiss my ass, or I’ll make sure you rot in the pit.”A chill flashed in Logan’s eyes, his lips curled into a cold smile. “You think I’ll kneel to you, a pumpkin-headed joke?”He wasn’t the same man they used to step on. He was the real power behind Rhine Corporation now.“Shut up, you filthy mouth!” Liam’s face darkened.Then he raised his head arrogantly, “You’re just scum—what could you possibly understand?”“I’m Rhine’s COO. I could crush your wife’s company with simply one phone call! And all you can do is coming back to me and kiss my ass.”“If that’s the case,” Logan said lightly, his expression calm and indifferent, “then I suppose I’ll just strip you of everything today.”What the fuck?!At Logan's words, Liam and Ava exchanged

    “What I do is none of your business,” Logan said coldly.He didn’t like this woman.Ava had always treated him like dirt.Just as he walked past her, hoping to avoid another pointless confrontation, Ava stepped forward, blocking his way.“Piss off, won’t you?” she mocked. “You think someone like you can get inside Rhine Group? I know Charlotte’s trying to secure a partnership with them, but ALAS — Mr Hayes already promised that deal to me.”“And when I take it, Charlotte’s days as CEO at Elysian Bloom will be numbered.”"Watch your wife’s empire crumble from the sidelines, you peasant!"Logan stared at her, his eyes cold and motionless. “You know what? You’re a perfect illustration of a rotten brain with wild dreams.”The third branch of the Sullivan family had always looked down on Charlotte and him. There was no warmth between kin—only cold, calculating greediness.“Fuck off!” Feeling unease under Logan’s cold gaze, Ava took a big step back and snapped。“You damn bum. Useless tra

    “Sorry, wrong. It’s a hundred and ninety seven.” SLAP! One of the Shadow Guards immediately slapped Liam hard across the face. Meanwhile, Logan snapped his fingers and tapped a few times, then turned it toward Liam. “Your private yacht. Now belongs to me!” Liam helplessly swallowed the pain. The $5 million private yacht ... he had only bought it last month. Now gone! Before he could drop to his knees and beg, Logan had already moved on to his next question. “Who is the last woman you slep with and what did you do to her next?” “Anna Kreel, my best friend’s youngest daughter,” Liam blurted. “She threatened to go to the press—I fucked her to death. And faked her death.” “I promise I’m telling the truth this time. You can’t punish m—” However... SLAP! Another slap landed on Liam’s face—this one so brutal two teeth flew out of his mouth. “U...un...unfair! Didn’t I say the truth?” Liam yelled in pain, protesting. “You know what? You’re a real devil!

    Logan decided to take over the Rhine Corporation soon.Now that he was going to wield enough influence, he'd secure Charlotte’s place as the unshakable CEO of Elysian Bloom.His wife, Charlotte, had endured the harsh treatment of the cold-hearted Sullivan family board long enough.Despite her unwavering loyalty, sharp leadership, and clear vision, they refused to recognize her true worth.Now, no one would dare belittle her again and their daughter would grow up in a world where her mother was respected, not scorned.Logan swore inwardly.That night, while Logan sat in his study strategizing their next corporate move, Charlotte remained at Vermil Hospital, silently keeping vigil by their daughter Chloe’s bedside as she lay unconscious after a grueling—but half successful—surgery.According to the doctor, Chloe would remain unconscious for quite a long time.The good news, however, was that Chloe still had a big chance of making a full recovery.For Logan and Charlotte, this was a smal

How could she say such a thing?Logan gently squeezed Charlotte’s hand to comfort her. He wasn’t surprised at Barbara’s harsh insulting words because he already knew she ditested his baby girl. He didn’t even look at Barbara or Liam. Instead, he calmly took out the divorce agreement and pulled out a lighter from his pocket.He took a deep breath.And with a flick of his thumb, the flame ignited. He lit the papers calmly and determined, as if burning away all the humiliation and resentment he had endured under the Sullivan’s roof.The divorce papers quickly turned to ash.Along with it, the invisible chains that had held Logan down were also incinerated.
