Chapter Eighty five."Who is Don to you?" Victoria asked, her voice pressing for answers as Ethan remained silent, his expression unreadable. But instead of responding, Ethan's eyes seemed to glaze over, his face frozen in shock. Suddenly, he stood up, his hands slamming onto the table, making Victoria jump."I swear I will kill that man!" he growled, his voice low and menacing. "He will regret messing with me!" Victoria's confusion deepened as she gazed at Don's picture and then back at Ethan, the resemblance between them striking.As she looked at Ethan, she couldn't help but wonder if Don was his father, if Ethan had lied about being an orphan to distance himself from a corrupt family member. The more she thought about it, the more her mind reeled with questions and doubts, making her feel like she was going crazy."Who is Don?" Victoria asked again, her voice laced with desperation. "Can you please just say something? Let me understand, let us understand what's going on." But

What are you saying?" he demanded, his irritation growing.Victoria intervened, her calm demeanor a contrast to Ethan's agitation. She gestured for him to remain calm and turned to the woman, her eyes filled with empathy. "I think there's been a misunderstanding," she said gently. But the woman shook her head."We have evidence that proves the General of West is behind our troubles." The woman's eyes welled up with pain and desperation, her voice barely above a whisper. "All I need's to stop torturing the villagers, for the innocent children's sake, for the love you have for your mother's sake…” Victoria's expression softened further, and she reached out, taking the w

Caleb didn't bother looking up, his body language tense.Maria sat down beside the luggage, cash spilling out onto the bed. She gathered the stacks, her eyes gleaming with satisfaction. Sniffing a bundle of bills, she murmured, "Hmmm," her gaze drifting to Caleb with a knowing glint.Caleb's gaze landed on the stacks of cash on the bed, and he shook his head in disgust. Maria's chuckle was like a spark to dry tinder. "If you need it, just ask," she said, her voice dripping with condescension. Caleb's response was immediate and venomous. "I'd rather die than take anything from you." Maria's laughter was a mocking echo. "Oh, how noble. You didn't seem so proud when you showed up on my doorstep with a suitcase and a smile." Caleb's eyes rolled in exasperation; he was tired of her twisting the past to make it seem like s

The name clearly didn't ring a bell."I need you to bring her to the old store now," Ethan said into the phone, his voice firm and commanding. "Yes, General," the person on the other end replied, before Ethan ended the call.He took a deep breath, his mind a jumbled of mess. This was harder than he thought, he realized. He had thought he had all his enemies on track, but now finding out he had an enemy he wasn't aware of was driving him crazy.Victoria walked up to him, concern etched on her face. "Is everything alright?" she asked, her voice soft and inquiring. Ethan's expression was tense, his eyes still clouded with thoughts. He turned to her, his voice low and measured.
