Meanwhile, John crawled to his desk and picked out a revolver from the drawer. “Hold it!” he shouted in a commanding tone seeing that Chris was about to take Eva away and he obviously wasn’t willing to let that happen. “I'm going to shoot if you take any step further.” he grimaced.

Felix was surprised by John’s action. He had already figured out that Chris was never an opponent that could beat in the first place and it was a terrible idea to provoke someone like him.

The fact that Chris was willing to leave without killing them was a privilege but now John had just worsened the situation by pulling a gun on Chris

“Uncle, What are you doing? It's going to be very dangerous if you fire that gun. We are surely going to die.” Felix cried out in desperation as he tried to cajole John.

“Shut up, you useless punk! How dare you tell me what to do? I'm going to kill this bastard no matter what it comes to.” John lashed out at Felix. He was totally consumed with rage and was determined t

    John didn't need to guess who was responsible for this crisis. He glared at Chris with bloodshot eyes. “You have really done it this time. I'll definitely kill you” However, Chris remained unfazed. “If you have what it takes, you can try shooting me. If you can’t kill me, all the members of the Landon family will die with you!” He declared with his tone brimming with cold killing intent, and his aura intensified. He was very Lucas was annoyed at this moment. Since Eva was safe and sound, he originally planned to let John go. He had given John many chances to back out from this fight by giving him several small punishments that would enlighten John to realize he was no match for him. However, John was too egoistic to admit defeat. He said was blinded by his thirst for revenge and still held onto his vile thoughts of violating Eva. This was something Chris would not tolerate. Since John had a death wish, he would definitely grant it to him without mercy. John was irritated an

    Felix took a deep breath. It felt like he had been unhooked from the weight of a heavy burden. Afterwards, he turned to look at Chris. “S–Sir, I’ve killed John Landon, the one who is mainly responsible for provoking. I will also take care of Jason Landon so I hope you can let the Landon family off.” Chris nodded in satisfaction. He wasn't the one who killed John and this was related to internal friction so there was no reason for him to concern himself “Fine, I hope the Landon family won't cause me any more problems in the future. I won't hesitate to completely destroy your family.” Felix felt his spine shivering in fear just by getting intimidated by Chris aura. “I-I understand, sir and I also have a request.” Chris was intrigued. “What?” “Please, support me to become the family head.” Felix said without hesitation. He had knew that he would have to contend with the rest of the greedy elders in family before he could fully be recognized as the helmsman of the Landon famil

    Eric arrived at Eva's home a short while after Chris left to save Eva after receiving the distress call from Amanda. He knew Chris wasn't an easy opponent so this time around he came along with extra numbers of bodyguards as learnt from the humiliation he received the last time he crossed chris. He and his lackeys barged into the house while bothering to knock on the door. Bruce was watching TV in the living room while Kate was in the kitchen, forced to make a light breakfast since she couldn't find Chris anywhere “Oh, you are at home,but of course where else would I expect you to be? ” Eric smiled roguishly as he was clearly mocking Bruce. “Where is Eva? When Bruce saw Eric, he frowned with disgust in his eyes and immediately challenged him. “Eva isn't home but Why have you come back here? “Shame!” Eric said, faking a sad facial expression on his face. “I was really looking forward to seeing her this morning but I guess we would just have to carry on without her.” “What a

    “I can't believe that you are being petty and making such shameless demand just because of our refusal to return to the family.” “No, uncle Bruce. It's you who is completely shameless here since it's your family, especially your daughter, Evangeline's fault that the Carters are suffering such a financial crisis. We wouldn't be in this mess if that wench had not colluded with Elliot Brown to make us lose Cross Corporation that belonged to our family for decades. How are you going to compensate for that?!” “That's…. That wasn't Eva’s fault. None of that would have happened If you hadn't tried to seize control of the contract that she clinched herself and if only father had kept his word.” “You clearly just slandered the Patriarch. Besides, does it really matter who was in charge of the project? Afterall, we are a family and should work together but Eva was blinded with greed. She kept causing problems for me and trying to take away the CEO position that's rightfully mine.” Eric

    Staring at her, Eric said slowly, “Aunt Kate, Last night you were even bragging about Eva being the CEO of Cross Corporation so you shouldn't. Surely you don’t care about that petty sum of money?.” “Don’t even think about it! How can we hand over such precious gifts to you?” Kate was instantly anxious. There was a way she was going to give up such expensive Jewelry. Eric laughed hysterically. “I don't have to wait till you hand it over to me personally. I know that it's somewhere in this house so I just have to find it myself.” He said and cocked his head toward the security officers behind him signalling them to start taking action. “Wait!” Seeing how the situation was developing, Kate tried to stop them because she knew that Eric wouldn’t leave then with anything if took them. However, one of the security guards roughly pushed Kate aside and tightly held her in his grasp in order to prevent her from disrupting the progress of their work. The security guards weren't bothered

    After leaving the landon residence, Chris decided that it was best not to return home in their current condition. His clothes were covered in blood stains and while Eva’ s clothes had been torn by John landon. Moreover, Eva was unconscious and according to Felix she was going to remain in that condition for a whole day due to the effect of the alcohol she was forced to drink. He was very certain of the fact that Eva's parents were going to be perturbed by the current condition of their daughter. Kate was certainly going to throw a fit and nag him for this happening to Eva. Chris didn't want to deal with such drama so he chose to take Eva to the mansion he bought which was also located in brooklyn heights. Eva didn't wake up until the next morning due to the effect of the alcohol that John Landon had forced her to drink. Her eyelashes moved slightly, and she, who had slept through the entire night, slowly opened her eyes. However, she didn’t wake up to the warm bedroom she

    After getting dressed, Eva left the room and headed downstairs. As she was through the hallway she was amazed by the luxurious interior decoration of the mansion.It was spacious, the furniture was crafted and designed with the highest quality of material. She could clearly tell that many of the huge shining chandeliers that were hanging from the ceiling were made with real gemstones. Eva also recognized several famous and expensive paintings and priceless antiques that were used as extra decoration In her mind she wondered when and for how long Chris had owned such a beautiful house. Moreover, why was he still living with her and her parents in their old colonial house where he was being treated like a house boy. She was surprised enough to find out that Chris was rich when he paid a huge sum of money to settle the bill at her class reunion gathering event that took place a few days ago. That was a revelation she was still trying to get used to but this discovery was going t

    Bruce and Kate spent the next several minutes explaining the incident that took place after Eva had left for work and Chris had mysteriously disappeared the previous day.At this point, Eva's blood was boiled in rage and her eyes were filled with anger. The Heart of Pierre was a gift that was actually very precious to her. In addition, it was so expensive that even she couldn't bear to wear it.Hearing that such priced jewelry had been stolen by her greedy and cunning cousin made her completely feel infuriated. This time around, Eva was unwilling to let this slide.“Mom, dad, I'll see you when I get home tonight. I have to end this conversation here because there is something that I have to do.” Eva declared and hung up the call without waiting for her parents' response.“I need to go to the Carter villa.” Eva said in a firm tone.“Is everything alright?” Chris asked, seeing the dark expression on Eva's face.“ There is something I need to take back from Eric Carter.” Eva replied in

    Ethan, who had been waiting by the car, caught sight of her vehicle disappearing into the distance. “Let's head to Cross Corporation.” Chris said As soon as he stepped into the car. Ethan turned to him. "Sir, I just saw the madam's car." Chris’s gaze snapped toward him. "Where?" "She just drove past the hotel. She saw you with Emma." Chris’s brows furrowed. "Follow her." Ethan immediately started the car and pulled out into traffic, but the city’s congestion worked against them. Within minutes, they lost her. Chris clenched his jaw, irritation flickering in his sharp eyes. "Head straight to the mansion," he ordered, hoping she had gone home. But when they arrived, Eva was nowhere to be found but Kate and Bruce were in the house. “You are back home early today?” Kate said with a hint of sarcasm in her tone. Chris ignored her nagging. “Isn't Eva home yet?” “No, she is probably still at work. Do you think everyone is as jobless and irresponsible as you? Kate retorted. For

    About an hour ago, Chris leaned back in his leather chair, his fingers drumming lightly against the polished desk of Pegasus Enterprise. The floor-to-ceiling windows of his office reflected the golden hues of the late afternoon sun, casting long shadows across the luxurious space. He had just finished reviewing a high-profile acquisition deal, but his mind was elsewhere. Eva. He knew he had failed to pick her up the previous evening. It was a minor misstep, but one he didn’t want to repeat. Their relationship was a delicate balance—one he wasn’t willing to tip over. He glanced at his watch. There was still time before Eva was scheduled to leave the Carter estate, but there was another obligation he had to tend to first. Standing, Chris grabbed his suit jacket and slipped it on with effortless precision. "Ethan," he called as he stepped out of his office. Ethan, who had been waiting outside, straightened immediately. "Sir?" "Prepare the car. I’m stopping by the hotel before he

    A few murmurs of agreement rippled through the room. Eva’s gaze sharpened, already sensing Eric’s intention to undermine her. She exhaled slowly, keeping her voice calm yet firm. "I find it amusing that you’re concerned about punctuality when this very meeting was only possible because of the business deals I secured for this family. Or would you prefer to discuss the countless contracts I’ve personally overseen that have elevated the Carter name?" Eric’s smirk faltered for a fraction of a second, but he quickly recovered. "Of course, we acknowledge your contributions. But it isn’t enough. You still have many other responsibilities to the family and as head you need to set an example." Eva folded her arms. "Oh? Do enlighten me." Eric leaned forward, his gaze gleaming with false sincerity. " You know this would have been much easier if you didn't have to drive all the way here.Why don’t you relocate the Carter family to your current mansion? It’s extravagant and more than spacious

    Back in her room, Eva leaned against the door, her hands balled into fists. She groaned in embarrassment, not sure about what she just did. Her mind was a storm of emotions—confusion, frustration, pain. The sight of that lipstick stain haunted her. Her stomach twisted at the mere thought of Chris with another woman. She had spent the entire day yearning for his presence, regretting how she had treated him… only to now be met with something that shattered her fragile resolve. Was she really being foolish? Had she been longing for someone who had already moved on? She shut her eyes, inhaling sharply. This feeling—this uneasiness gnawing at her—was unbearable. But there was nothing she could do about it. Not right now. As the night deepened, Eva lay awake, staring at the ceiling, her heart aching with emotions she didn’t know how to handle. And Chris, on the other side of the mansion, was just as restless—completely unaware of the storm brewing in Eva’s heart. T

    “Where have you been all day, Chris?” Kate’s voice rang through the house. “Do you even know what time it is? You think that you can. Just come and go as you please” Chris’s voice was calm, composed. “I had things to take care of, Mother.” “Oh, so you disappear for days, come back whenever you please, and don’t even think to explain?” “I’m sorry, Mother. I didn’t mean to worry you.” Kate scoffed. “Do you even care about this family? About Eva?” Eva clenched her fists. Why did Mom always have to bring me into everything? Chris remained patient. “I do care, Mother. But I had no choice. I had something important to handle.” Kate exhaled sharply. “You better not bring trouble to this house, Christopher.” Chris didn’t respond. He quietly climbed the stairs. Then came the sound of footsteps. Eva barely had time to react before she noticed Chris making his way up the stairs. Her heart pounded. Would he come to her room? Would he apologize? But instead, he walked straight past her

    The golden hue of the setting sun bathed the Cross Corporation building in a soft glow as employees exited the towering glass structure in waves. Eva Carter stepped through the revolving doors, her heart pounding with quiet anticipation. Her gaze instinctively swept across the bustling street, searching for the familiar sleek black car that Chris always parked near the curb. But he wasn’t there. She frowned, gripping the strap of her handbag tightly. Maybe he’s running late. It wouldn’t be the first time Chris had kept her waiting due to work, but he always showed up. Always. Minutes ticked by. First five. Then ten. The occasional rush of a car passing by barely distracted her from the growing tightness in her chest. She took a deep breath, pushing away the creeping unease that threatened to settle. He’ll come. He has to. But when thirty minutes passed with no sign of him, the bitter taste of disappointment curled on her tongue. She felt like a fool standing there, waiting. No ca

    Dexter was also equally confused, he was now sweating in fear but he still tried to regain control. “Mr. Landon, I assure you, this is just a misunderstanding—” Before he could finish, Felix turned and slapped him across the face. The entire room froze. Dexter stumbled, eyes wide in shock. “S-Sir?” Felix’s gaze was ice-cold. “You don’t touch people under my protection.” Dexter’s lips trembled. He had underestimated the weight of Chris’s connections. Chris leaned back in his chair, watching with amusement. “How dare you?....How dare you disrespect Mr.chris?....I’m going to see to it that you no longer have the liberty to conduct any more business in Brooklyn by the time I'm through with you.” Dexter was confused and could only drop to his knees instantly and bow his head in shame as he wondered how Chris was connected to the Landon family. “I'm sorry sir….I'm really sorry sir. I wasn't aware that Mr. Chris was a friend to the Landon family. I would not have acted disrespectfu

    Dexter’s grin faltered for the first time. His eyes darted to his hidden dealer, who subtly signaled that his hand wasn’t as strong as he thought. For the first time, uncertainty flickered in Dexter’s expression. But his pride wouldn’t let him back down. “All in,” he snarled. The dealer flipped the final two cards—King of Spades and a Nine of Spades. Chris had hit a Royal Flush—the highest possible hand. The room erupted into murmurs. Dexter’s face turned pale as he realized he had walked right into a trap. Chris leaned back, crossing his arms. “Looks like I win.” Dexter’s hands clenched into fists. “You… you cheated.” Chris tilted his head. “Cheating? You would know all about that, wouldn’t you?” Ethan chuckled. “Boss, looks like the casino manager isn’t used to losing.” Dexter slammed his fists onto the table. “I won’t let this slide.” Chris’s eyes darkened. “A deal is a deal. You don’t want to go back on your word now, do you?” Dexter ground his teeth. He did expect t

    To be honest, Chris had recognized Dexter the moment they locked eyes with one another. However, he acted otherwise hoping that the situation would become less complicated. “You damn bastard!....I told you we were going to meet again but who would have thought that you would actually dare to come into the casino all by yourself.” “You are getting yourself in this issue just like you did last time we met.” “What do you expect? I can't just stand by and watch your injustice.” “Fine. If you want to do that You want to pay off her debt? Let’s make it fun.” Dexter’s grin widened. “I have seen your fighting skills and I admit that you are good but let's find out if that applies to something else. I suggest a round of poker if you are confident in your skills.” Chris’s gaze didn’t waver. “I don’t play games I can’t win.” “What are the odds of the game?” Let’s make this interesting. Since we both have something at stake, let’s raise the buy-in.” Chris raised an eyebrow. “How much?”
