Chapter 35: Anastasia
“What is the meaning of this, Anastasia?” Gina asked, her tone laced with sharp impatience rather than fear. “You have a long history of trading with my grandfather. That history is the only reason we have extended this level of trust to you until today.”“But that history does not mean I can simply rely on you to provide me with these pills whenever I want them, Gina,” Anastasia replied, a cold, smooth smile stretching across her newly rejuvenated face. “You are starting to demand a ridiculous price, and I am beginning to suspect it will only get more absurd if this arrangement continues.”“What is ridiculous about the price?” Gina countered, her eyes narrowing as she stood her ground against the forty rifles aimed at her. “Do you have any idea how much it costs us to source the secondary materials? Do you know how many unsuccessful batches have to be completely destroyed before we can produce even one perfect yield?”Gina shook her head slowly, looking at the blonde boss with a sens
chapter 34: Gina's Mission
Meanwhile…Moscow, Russia.In a frozen, desolate wasteland so far off the grid that the location didn't even exist on modern satellite maps, two heavily modified, blacked-out SUVs sat idling on a fractured road.A squad of men in heavy tactical armor stood in a tight defensive formation behind a solitary young woman.Even just from her silhouette, her striking, undeniable elegance commanded the frozen landscape. A long, dark braid cascaded over the shoulder of her immaculately tailored business suit, giving the deceptive impression of a standard corporate executive.But the ten massive mercenaries guarding her back—and the heavy, military-grade weaponry strapped to their chests—screamed otherwise.Two miles away, perched in the freezing wind at the top of a rusted, makeshift watchtower, a petite Russian woman watched the entire group in dead silence through the lens of a high-powered tactical scope."She’s at the contact site," the petite Russian woman whispered, clicking the encrypte
chapter 33: who ordered the killer
He knew Matthew was a petty, arrogant guy, and he trusted him to be a lot of things—a bad roommate, an annoying rival, a campus jerk—but an actual assassin who would ruthlessly try to put a bullet in his chest? That was entirely out of the question."Matthew! What the hell led you to this?!" Jason demanded, stepping closer to the stretcher. "I’ve always known you to be an antagonist, Matthew, but not a real-life killer! Why?!"As Jason shouted, his eyes locked onto Matthew’s right side. He sickened to realize that Matthew's right arm was completely destroyed, dangling uselessly by a shred of flesh, his shoulder completely shattered by the impact. Jason turned an intense, questioning glare toward Seth for answers."I noticed the laser sight right before he pulled the trigger, and I did what I had to do to stop him," Seth said with a casual shrug. "I went directly for the kill shot. It is a genuine miracle that he survived, Young Master. It can only be attributed to a lucky twist of fat
Chapter 32: Unmasking the Assassin
"Let her be," Seth said softly as he gently laid Charlotte down to rest on a clean booth cushion. Seeing Jason’s intensely curious glance, he added, "She will sleep for a full day. By the time she wakes up, even this little scar will have completely disappeared."Jason was burning with a million questions, but he knew right now was not the time to push it. The way he looked at Seth had fundamentally changed. He had always just viewed him as the stoic, distant bodyguard who had watched over him since childhood."I know you have a lot of questions, Young Master," Seth said, offering a rare, faint smile. "But now is not the right time to talk. Everything will be fully revealed to you after you pass the third test."That single sentence only made Jason’s curiosity spike into pure frustration.What the fuck, bro? Jason screamed internally. I literally just finished the first test, and now you’re keeping me in suspense for the third test? The first test took four good years to complete... f
Chapter 32: The Assassination Attempt
A few seconds before the assassination attempt, Seth and his elite unit had been quietly securing the outer perimeter of the restaurant. Suddenly, Seth’s eyes narrowed as he caught a faint, sudden flash from a distance.It was a tiny, sharp red dot dancing across the pavement.The dot danced and skipped erratically against the walls, looking exactly as if a child were carelessly playing around with a laser pointer. Seth's combat instincts flared instantly. He silently flashed hand signals to his unit: two operatives to hunt down the shooter's position, two to breach the diner and escort Jason out, and the rest to form a defensive ring for absolute emergency response.Seth quickly calculated the distance and trajectory, smoothly unslinging a high-caliber sniper rifle of his own.He brought the weapon up to his eye, peering through the advanced thermal scope. Two blocks away, on the high balcony of a dark skyscraper opposite the restaurant, he immediately spotted a figure lying flat on
chapter 31: Who am i
"Who am I?" Jason sighed, running a tired hand through his hair. "I don’t even know who I am anymore."Seeing Charlotte’s intense, concentrated gaze, he slowly continued. "My family is... complicated. Ever since I was little, I’ve always known we were wealthy. I knew we owned companies all over the world, but they made sure I never knew the true extent of it.""There has always been a strict tradition in our bloodline, passed down from generation to generation," Jason explained, his voice dropping slightly. "Whenever a child is born, the family completely buries the news. We are raised entirely in the shadows, far away from any media attention. I was literally homeschooled from basic education all the way through high school."Charlotte sat frozen, hanging onto his every word."I took every single exam from the isolated comfort of my own home," he said, offering a sad, self-deprecating smile. "The only real friends I've ever made in my entire life were the ones I met here, during my u
