    The moment Phoenix began walking toward him with that expressionless, almost glacial calm in her eyes, Wesley Apex felt something inside him snap."Help! Somebody help me—now!" he shrieked, his voice cracking into something high and hysterical.The pounding of doors slamming open echoed down the corridor.Within seconds, the suite's neighboring doors burst outward. A wave of disciplined men in dark suits rushed in—trained, synchronized, efficient. Half of them formed a tight encirclement around Conrad Stone and Phoenix, their movements sharp and precise. The other half arranged themselves into a human barricade in front of Wesley, shielding him like a mobile fortress.Only then did the suffocating pressure around his chest ease slightly.He had to thank his father for this.Ever since his older brother, Wayne Apex, had been rendered permanently impotent—humiliated, broken, reduced to a shadow of himself—the patriarch of the Apex

    "Wesley Apex, twenty-four years of age. He is the second son of Harvey Apex, the Chairman of Apex Pharmaceuticals. Following the debilitating injury and subsequent removal of the eldest son, Wayne Apex, the family has placed all their hopes of succession upon Wesley. He is currently enrolled at Haven University. However, relying on his family's immense wealth and influence, he has engaged in numerous illicit activities, burying his crimes under piles of cash."Phoenix's voice was devoid of emotion, reciting the dossier with the precision of a machine as she navigated the Rolls-Royce through the bustling evening traffic of Haven City. Her tone was flat, professional, and chillingly detailed.Clara listened in awed trepidation. The report was terrifyingly detailed, exposing secrets usually buried by millions. It felt less like a background check than a prosecutor's opening statement.Clara stole a glance at the woman driving. Who exactly was this Phoenix? Her driving sk

    "Hmph!"A heavy, disappointed grunt echoed from the shadows of the tree line. Supported by Summer Leo, Old Leo stepped into the fading light of the clearing. His face, usually worn with age and kindness, was now a mask of thunderous, dark fury."You still have the nerve to call me Dad?" Old Leo's voice shook, not with frailty, but with a rage that seemed to vibrate through his very bones.Thump.Jimmy Leo's legs gave way. He collapsed onto the dirt, his eyes wide and glassy, staring at his father as if seeing a ghost. To him, this was impossible. Hours ago, his father had been knocking on death's door, barely able to lift a finger. Now, he stood upright, his stride strong, his voice booming."Impossible..." Jimmy mumbled, his mind unable to process the reality. "This is impossible... You should be in bed... You were dying..."Old Leo marched forward, ignoring the pain in his joints, fueled entirely by adrenaline and indignation. He stopped beside Conrad

    "Brother-in-law... what are we going to do?"Clara Lynn's voice was barely a whisper, trembling with a fear that chilled her to the bone. The circle of men in black tightened around them like a noose, their movements synchronized and predatory. The fading light of dusk in Liberty Park cast long, distorted shadows across their masked faces, turning them into faceless monsters from a nightmare. She instinctively shrank back, pressing herself behind Conrad Stone's broad back, seeking the only shelter she could find in this desolate killing ground.Jimmy Leo had been explicitly clear in his instructions: Take the woman. Kill the man.It didn't take a genius to understand the implication. In the underworld of Haven City, when a young, beautiful woman was "taken" by a group of hired thugs, there was usually only one grim destination awaiting her. The thought made Clara Lynn's stomach churn with nausea. She gripped Conrad Stone's jacket, her knuckles turning white.Watc

    The moment Jimmy Leo hung up the phone, the atmosphere in the cramped room shifted from tension to outrage.Summer Leo was trembling, her hands clenched into tight fists at her sides. Old Leo's face was a mask of sorrow and fury. They had been completely in the dark regarding Jimmy's extortion scheme. While Summer had been tirelessly scrubbing floors and boiling water to care for her dying father, her brother had been using that very illness as a weapon to blackmail an innocent woman.Old Leo looked at Clara Lynn, his eyes wet with shame. "Miss, please... you have my word. You do not pay a single cent of that Five Million Dollars. When that unfilial beast comes back, I will... I will break his legs! Cough, cough!"The intensity of his anger triggered a violent coughing fit. His chest heaved, a terrible rattling sound echoing in his lungs.Conrad Stone moved instantly, stepping behind the old man and rhythmically patting his back to ease the spasms. " Old Leo, cal

    The urban landscape of Haven City was a study in cruel contrasts. Just a few miles away from the gleaming glass monoliths of the Financial District and the manicured lawns of Violet Gardens, there existed a world that the city's elite pretended did not ignore. It was a sprawling, gray labyrinth of narrow alleys, crumbling brickwork, and tangled power lines known locally as The Lowlands.Here, the air tasted of coal dust and stagnant water. The roads were too narrow for municipal sweepers, leaving trash to accumulate in wind-blown drifts against the peeling walls of unauthorized housing extensions.A sleek, black vehicle purred through these claustrophobic streets, its polished chassis reflecting the grim surroundings like a dark mirror. It looked like a spaceship that had crash-landed in a junkyard.Conrad Stone sat in the back, his expression unreadable as he watched the scenery roll by. Next to him sat Clara Lynn, who was clutching a large, ornate fruit basket as if
