2025-05-14 15:46:04“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!”“NO! That is mine! MINE!” Liam roared in frustration.
That was his favorite yacht — and the most expensive one!
How could he let someone else take it away?
But ... SLAP! SLAP! SLAP!
Three slaps came one after another, making his head ring loudly.
Liam helplessly sobbed in pain.
The private yacht was worth $5 million ... and he had only bought it last month. Now gone!
His heart was bleeding.
Before he could drop to his knees and beg any further, 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! SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! SLAP! Another five slaps landed on Liam’s face—the last 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! That poor girl was only fourteen.” Logan said coldly, his voice full of disdain. And with another tap on the tablet. “Your penthouse in Elleville's East Ridge. Gone!”Hearing this, Liam felt as if a chunk of his heart had been ripped out of his chest — that was his!
Damn robbers!
But he didn’t dare shout again.
“Who is your next prey?”
Ignoring Liam's sour expression, Logan quickly moved to the next question.
Liam hesitated. Reluctantly, he replied, “Charlotte Sullivan—both her grandmother and mother wanted me to take her. It’s a deal, I promise I did nothing wrong! At least, not yet!” SMACK! SMACK! SMACK! By now, Liam’s face was swollen beyond recognition. He clutched his swollen face in despair. He finally understood the rules: no matter what he said, whether truth or not, he would get slapped, and one of his most precious and valuable assets taken. Logan rose to his feet, towering over Liam with a cold fury. “Well, well ... You’re not just a disgrace to business—you’re a total blight on humanity!” Another tap. “Your offshore accounts in the Caymans. Seized!” Each answer was equally disgusting—enough to make anyone sick with outrage. The room reeked of disgrace—heavy with the stench of unspeakable acts that seemed to cling to the very air. With each disgusting answer, Logan stripped Liam of another asset—his stake in three major corporations, his antique car collection, his private golf estate, his ownership of several patents. One by one, Liam’s empire crumbled before him! By the end of it, Liam was trembling and sprawled on the floor, with his face bleeding.Like a dragon robbed of its treasure, Liam couldn't help but burst into tears.
“P-Please… mercy…don't...take them away,” Liam whimpered, still desperately trying to cling to his possessions.Meanwhile, Logan chuckled slightly, his mood wasn't bad.
For trash like Liam, there were three things that mattered more than life itself: fortune, power and status, and women.
And Liam deserved losing them all and go to hell!
Yet for now, Logan had only taken away Liam's fortune...oh yeah, ... and taught him a small lesson.
Wasn't he already very forgiving?
Curling up his lips, Logan sneered, “Liam, burn this into your skull—there are people beyond your ability to offend.” Without another glance at Liam, Logan stood and left with his bodyguards following like shadows. Liam collapsed, sobbing on the blood-smeared carpet of Room 238. Logan didn’t let his men finish Liam off directly. After personally interrogating Liam, he felt that killing this scum would only dirty his own hands—and let Liam off too easily. Liam deserved to suffer more, slowly, and painfully! Outside the hotel, Logan signalled Kane, and within seconds, all the Shadow Guards dispersed. Logan removed his mask, returning to his regular self. The shift in identities was oddly satisfying. Logan left the hotel and headed to the hospital ward where Charlotte was with Chloe, carrying a paper bag with warm milk and Charlotte's favorite snacks. “Logan?” Seeing Logan entering the ward, Charlotte echoed. She looked tired. “Brought you some milk and snacks.” Logan knelt beside her, gently tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. “You’ve done enough for today. Let me take care of both of you now.” He guided Charlotte to sit back, offering her the cup of warm milk. In front of enemies, Logan was a fearsome demon. But in front of Charlotte, he would always be the gentle man who loved her deeply. Maybe he’d be looked down upon by the Sullivans—but as long as he had Charlotte, nothing else mattered. “Oh, Logan, you’re so sweet.” Charlotte took a warm sip and dropped into the chair, watching as Logan took charge—adjusting Chloe’s blanket, checking her IV, and settling into the chair beside the bed. Meanwhile, back in Room 238 of the Grand Bellaria Hotel, Liam Hayes lay motionless, stirring only faintly.

Elowen remained standing at the entrance long after Logan's vehicle had disappeared beyond the gates.The baby slept peacefully in her arms, unaware of the storm raging within his mother.Mrs. Beatrice approached quietly."Miss Elowen, you'll catch a cold standing out here."Elowen slowly turned around and walked back into the house without saying a word.She handed the baby to the nanny before making her way to the study.Closing the door behind her, she sank into the leather chair and stared blankly at the ceiling.Everything had gone wrong.She had spent hours preparing for Logan's visit.She had imagined that seeing their son would soften his heart.She thought perhaps he would stay longer.Perhaps he would ask about her.Perhaps he would see them together and realize they could still become a family.Instead, Logan had done exactly what he promised months earlier.He had come for the child.Only the child.Whenever she tried to steer the conversation toward herself, Logan gently
Chapter 713
A week passed after Logan returned from seeing Elowen.Outwardly, everything appeared normal.He resumed handling official matters, attended meetings, and kept in close contact with Charlotte, who was still in Dalton while overseeing matters related to Elysian Bloom. Their conversations were warm as always, and Logan deliberately chose not to burden her further. He believed she had already carried enough emotional weight from hearing about the existence of the child.Meanwhile, Elowen spent her days in her luxurious villa, taking care of her newborn son.Every time she looked at the little boy, she became even more determined.She had informed Logan that the child had been born, yet that was all. Logan had not come to see the baby. Neither had he asked to spend time with him.Instead, he had simply arranged for the child's expenses to be fully covered. A trust fund was established in the baby's name, the best pediatrician in the city was assigned to monitor his health, and every finan

The house had become completely silent again.Jean stood alone in the downstairs hallway, every muscle in his body tense. His eyes remained fixed on the staircase as he listened to the faint footsteps of his associate making his way back toward the upper floor.He glanced at the clock.A few minutes past midnight.Everything depended on what happened next.Upstairs, the man reached Clara's bedroom door once more.He paused outside, listening carefully.No voices.No movement.Only silence.He slipped the master key into the lock.With practiced care, he turned it until the latch released.The door opened only a fraction before he eased himself inside and quietly closed it behind him.The room was dimly lit by moonlight filtering through the curtains.Charlotte slept peacefully on the guest bed.Clara remained asleep in her own bed nearby.The man looked from one bed to the other before reaching into the pocket of his jacket.He removed a small canister.After glancing around the room

Jean remained in the hallway for several moments after looking through the small viewing panel.The bedroom was quiet.Moonlight filtered through the curtains, casting pale streaks across the floor. Charlotte and Clara both appeared to be asleep, their steady breathing the only sign of life inside the room.Jean slowly stepped away from the door and his expression hardened.For a brief instant, he closed his eyes.He remembered the assignment that had been given to him months earlier.He remembered the countless meetings with the gang.He remembered the promises he had made over the phone only minutes ago.His jaw tightened."This has to end tonight," he whispered to himself.He quietly walked farther down the hallway until he reached the small study at the end of the house.Closing the door behind him as softly as possible, he reached for his phone.After hesitating for only a second, he dialed a familiar number.The call connected almost immediately.A man's sleepy voice answered."
Chapter 710
Jean remained seated on the edge of his bed long after the call had ended.His phone lay motionless beside him, its screen now dark and silent.The excitement that had filled him earlier that evening had completely disappeared. The smile that had spread across his face when Charlotte accepted his proposal had faded away, replaced by a cold, thoughtful expression that revealed none of the happiness he had displayed only hours before.He leaned back against the headboard and slowly closed his eyes.The words of his friend refused to leave his mind."Don't forget the plan.""Charlotte was always our prey.""Our gang can't wait anymore."Each sentence replayed repeatedly, refusing to disappear.Jean slowly opened his eyes again and stared at the ceiling.For months, he had been preparing for this assignment.It had never been personal.At least, that was what he had convinced himself from the beginning.Long before Charlotte unexpectedly walked back into his life, his future had already b
Chapter 709
Jean remained seated on the edge of his bed after the unexpected phone call connected. The room was dimly lit, and the quiet atmosphere of the house made every word spoken through the phone seem even louder. Across the hallway, Charlotte had already retired to Clara's room after the long evening they had shared together. She had no idea that while she slept peacefully, another conversation—one far more dangerous—was unfolding only a few doors away.Jean leaned back against the headboard and smiled faintly."Thank you for the congratulations," he said.The man on the other end laughed warmly."I heard everything went exactly as planned."Jean allowed himself a small smile."It went... even better than I expected.""You sound happier than I imagined.""I suppose I am."The caller chuckled."I can hear it in your voice."Jean glanced toward his bedroom door before answering."It has been an interesting evening."For a brief moment, neither of them spoke.Then the caller's tone changed co
