Sparrow pulled open the door of the black van and gestured for Zed to step inside. Zed hesitated for a few moments, eyes narrowing slightly as if trying to assess the situation, before finally stepping in. The instant his feet touched the floor of the van, Sparrow slammed the door shut and locked it with a decisive click. Without wasting a second, he made his way to the driver's seat, slid in, started the engine, and drove off without delay.

The van rolled through the bustling streets of the city, weaving between honking cars and hurried pedestrians. The city buzzed with life—honking horns, distant sirens, and the occasional call from a street vendor. But the longer they drove, the more that vibrant chaos faded away. After what felt like forever, the van left the crowded streets and ventured into a much more desolate area.

Zed couldn’t see a thing from where he sat. The windows were tightly covered with thick black curtains, blocking out any view of the outside world. Yet, despite the

    "The police called earlier, sir... Steve will be released today," Amanda Steele informed audibly.Hearing Amanda’s words, Zed's eyes widened in shock."What?" he exclaimed. "How? Why? What exactly happened?" he blurted out, stunned. His expression was a mix of shock and disbelief."Well, I don't know the full details... but Chief Beckett said that Mr. Damien dropped the charges and he's free to leave without further punishment," Amanda informed."Mr. Damien did that? That's impossible," Zed blurted out, still shocked."That was exactly what I said when he told me. I even thought it was a prank call, but it's real. He’s been pardoned and he’s free to leave," Amanda said, her voice rising with joy, her face bright with relief.Zed stood there in silence after hearing those words, his mind filling with questions and confusion.This didn’t make any sense to him.Mr. Damien? Dropping the charges?If someone had told him that yesterday, he would have laughed in their face. It sounded ridicu

  • Shocking news

    Zed walked into the living room of the mansion, and the first thing he saw was Kimberly preparing for dinner. When she heard the door open, she swiftly shifted her gaze toward it, and a relieved expression appeared on her face after Zed stepped in."Good evening, sir," she greeted respectfully with a slight bow."How are you?" Zed asked as he advanced forward."I'm fine, sir," Kimberly affirmed."I hope no one came here to cause any trouble? And you also did what I told you to do and stayed indoors?" Zed inquired, and Kimberly nodded in affirmation."That's good," Zed nodded, then his eyes flickered to the food on the table."I don't think I'll be eating tonight," he stated, then shifted his gaze back to Kimberly. "Eat as much as you want, then take the rest back to the kitchen. I'll eat it tomorrow morning."He turned to walk away, but Kimberly’s voice stopped him in his tracks."Your forehead... it's swollen," she muttered, and Zed turned around slowly to meet her concerned gaze. "D

  • A driver

    Amanda was taken aback after hearing Zed’s words. As she glanced at him, it felt like she was staring at an entirely different person. The Zed she knew would never risk losing a single client. He always did everything in his power to ensure his clients were satisfied. And whenever they weren’t pleased with the company’s service, he always found a way to win them back—maybe by offering them a Platinum car free of charge, or giving them a massive discount on their next order.But the Zed standing before her now didn’t seem afraid of losing a client. And it wasn’t just one client—he was willing to lose over fifty. All for what?"I don’t know what got you this way, or what—""I don’t want to hear any more about it, Amanda. I’ve made my decision, so please stop talking about it already," Zed cut her off sharply before she could finish.Amanda nodded, visibly backing down.Zed let out a long sigh and glanced at her. "I'm sorry. That was harsh," he admitted, his tone laced with regret."It’s

  • Hiding something

    The sun was beginning to set, and the day was gradually slipping into darkness. A black van cruised steadily down the street, its tires humming against the pavement, and a few moments later, it finally came to a halt several meters away from Zed’s company.“Get out,” Sparrow spat coldly.Zed reached for the walking cane lying beside him before sliding the van door open and stepping out into the fading sunlight. He shut the door behind him with a dull thud, briefly scanning his surroundings, then began to move forward, his walking cane tapping rhythmically against the sidewalk as he advanced. He made his way through the quiet, deserted street until he finally arrived at the front of his company building.Security guards were already patrolling the premises, each of them armed with long, metallic bars. Their eyes were sharp, their expressions stern and unyielding. The moment they caught sight of Zed, they all lowered their heads respectfully and bowed in unison.Zed didn’t even glance a

  • Another plan

    Elsewhere, inside an opulent mansion adorned with crystal chandeliers and gold-trimmed furniture, Mr. Damien reclined comfortably on a plush leather sofa, a glass of champagne balanced elegantly in his right hand. Sitting across from him was his stunning daughter, Mia. She, too, held a delicate flute of champagne, her gaze intensely focused on her father as he spoke.“The trial is in a few days,” Mr. Damien began, his voice calm but laced with calculation. “Steve already confessed to his crimes, so he’s definitely going to jail. No matter what Zed does, he won’t be able to save him.”He paused, taking a small sip of his drink, then continued, “I’ve been keeping a close watch on Zed and his company. I know Steve is his top engineer and that he has a soft spot for the guy. He won’t want him rotting behind bars for years. I’m certain he’s doing everything in his power to stop that from happening.”Mia brought her glass to her lips and took a slow sip, her eyes never leaving her father. S

    "Alright. I'll give you the ship you want," Zed remarked audibly, his gaze fixed intently on Mr. Anderson.A sinister grin crept onto Mr. Anderson’s face as he took a long, slow drag from his cigarette, then exhaled a thick cloud of smoke through his nostrils and mouth."You know, this could have gone a lot easier. If you had accepted the deal earlier, we wouldn’t have gone through so much stress," he bellowed, smoke curling from his lips with every word. "I’m the type of man who hates stress. I get everything I want without going through unnecessary effort—without even breaking a sweat. But you stressed me out, and for that... you must pay."Zed said nothing. He simply watched and listened, his face unreadable."For causing me this trouble, you won’t be getting a single penny from me. The support I promised earlier is off the table. You won’t receive any funds… and you certainly won’t be paid after the ship is completed," Mr. Anderson articulated coldly.Upon hearing those words, Zed

  • Accepting the deal

    “What they don’t know,” Mr. Anderson began, his voice low and gravelly, “is that there are some secrets I keep. Really dark secrets. Secrets that only a handful of people know—and those who aren't supposed to know… are often taken out.”He leaned forward slowly until his face was just inches from Zed’s. His eyes bore into him with unnerving precision.“And you, my friend—you know about it. I’d like to know how.”A tense silence gripped the basement like a vice. The atmosphere was heavy, stifling. Everyone’s gaze was fixed on Zed.Zed’s heart pounded in his chest like a war drum. He forced himself to maintain his usual calm, collected exterior, but no matter how still he sat or how carefully he composed his face, Mr. Anderson could see right through it.How de hell he know? Zed thought, his mind racing.It was the system that had revealed the truth about the Anderson Group’s secret dealings. He had never breathed a word of it to anyone—hadn’t even hinted at it. He made sure to cover hi

  • He wants me alive

    "I told the cute chick out there that my name was Collins. But that was obviously a lie. I go by the name Sparrow," the man said, his voice low and smooth, a dark smirk curling at the corners of his mouth like poison on lips.Zed rose to his feet, a rigid tension stiffening his posture. The muscles around his eyes twitched slightly, and a shadow passed over his face."Sparrow, huh? And who are you, really? Who sent you?" Zed asked, his voice low, brittle. "Was it Salazar?" He swallowed hard, and the sudden dryness in his throat was undeniable. His eyes locked on the man's face, and his heart pounded violently against his ribs like a war drum."Salazar?" Sparrow scoffed, shaking his head slightly. "No, I don't work for Salazar. I work for Mr. Anderson."Zed's face changed instantly at the name. His lips parted, but it took him a second before sound came out."Yes… I do," he muttered, barely above a whisper."That's good," Sparrow chuckled, his voice oddly calm as he strode forward with
