Today was important for all the employees at Pegasus Enterprise because the new chairman was arriving for the first time today. As a result, every security officer was resolved to make sure everything was in order.
The security guard had a shocked expression on his face when he saw what happened. As soon as he saw the bleeding car driver he recognized him as the son of Pegasus Enterprise general manager, Mark Collins
“Sir Mark, are you alright?” in a concerned tone the guards hurriedly rushed to help Mark get back to his feet.
“Where the hell have you idiot been?” Mark groaned while covering his bleeding nose.
Being scolded by Mark made The security guard frown. He fixed his furious gaze at Chris, seeing how poorly dressed he was in cheap outfits gave the security officer the free pass to look down on him and shouted, “What do you think you’re doing? How dare you cause a ruckus on Pegasus Enterprise ground?! Apologize to sir, Mark right this instant?”
“Shouldn't you be asking me what happened before judging who's at fault?” Chris remarked.
“I don't have to waste my time asking such a useless question. It is clearly obvious that you assaulted sir, mark first.” The security guards ignorantly lashed out at Chris as he was obviously making a biased judgment by taking Mark's side. Why did you have to come on a day like this to cause a ruckus.” He lamented.
Mark pointed at Chris. “ I suspect that this man has sinister thoughts and is here to intentionally cause trouble for us today. I hope the security department will fulfill its duties. Otherwise, don’t blame me for docking your salary! Also, the newly appointed chairman of the company will be coming to the office today. If you don’t receive him properly, you’ll lose more than just your salary. Do you understand?”
After all, Mark was the head of the Human Resource department of the Pegasus Enterprise and the general manager's son as well so he had a significant amount of authority.
The security officer knew that this was a serious matter as well. Looking at the burly and tall Chris, he was worried that he might not be able to stop him alone, so he hurriedly reported the situation over his radio. Soon, the captain of the security team made his way over with more than ten fully-armed security officers.
“Hmph!” Mark raised his chin smugly at Chris. “I told you that I was going to make you regret hitting me.”
At that moment, his cellphone began ringing and he hurriedly picked it up when he saw it was his father, the general manager calling him.. “Hello father,”
“Brat! Where the hell are you right now? I just got word that the CEO would be arriving in five minutes. I told you to arrive early today. “
“Dad, I've already arrived but I got assaulted at the parking lot.” Mark lamented
“What?!.....Which bastard dare to lay a hand on you on the company ground?! Are you alright?!” the general manager asked in a frantic voice. “Where are the security officers?”
“I'm just bleeding in the nose and the security guards just arrived. They are going to take care of him so I'll be heading inside now.” Mark explained.
“Good, tell them to break that bastard leges and arms.”
Mark hung up the call. “It's a shame I won't be able to watch you get beat up.” He said sneering at Chris. “I'll leave him to you. The CEO would soon arrive so get rid of him before then!” He instructed before walking away into the building.
“Sir, I'm going to ask you to leave now or will be forced to throw you out of the premises.”. the head of security addressed Chris in a stern voice.
“I can’t leave because I still have unfinished business here. Besides, none of you have the authority to throw me out.’
The head of security officers laughed. “A pauper like you can’t possibly be here at the Pegasus Enterprise to sign a contract. It would be wise for you to comply with our terms or don't blame us for using violence against you.”
Chris snorted coldly. “It seems like my expectations of Pegasus Enterprise were too high after all. This place is filled with many fools that need to be educated.”
“What did you say?!” Hearing Chris' words, the head of security flew into a rage and waved his hand at the security officers around him. “You dare insult Pegasus Enterprise. Since you are tired of living l, I'll make sure to give you the education you deserve. Hit this arrogant bastard and throw him out!!”
The security officers immediately surrounded Chris
At this moment, a shining brown Bentley sedan car drove into the parking lot. The security guards' hearts skidded as this car was the designated vehicle that was assigned to transport the new CEO to the company.
Shortly afterward, the intimidating figure of a young man stepped out of the vehicle.
The security guards quickly recognized this man as the new CEO of Pegasus Enterprise, Elliot Brown, whose arrival they had all been expecting.
All the guards at the parking lot abandoned Chris and bowed their heads to greet Elliot. “Welcome to Pegasus Enterprise, Mr. Brown. We have been expecting your arrival sir.
When Elliot saw the group of people bowing in front of him, his eyes widened in surprise when he saw Chris but no one could see the shock in his eyes since he was wearing sunshades. Ignoring the security guards, he directly walked towards the group in hurried steps with his gaze fixed on Chris.
As soon as he arrived in front of Chris, he took off his glasses and bowed deeply. “Mr. Chairman, you are already here. Forgive me for my tardiness. I should have arrived here before you and should be the one welcoming you instead.” he said in an apologetic tone.

Chapter 516
The fight erupted. Mason attacked with reckless fury, slashing and lunging with the blade, each movement a desperate attempt to escape, to hurt, to reclaim what he believed was stolen. Chris sidestepped fluidly, moving like water over stone, countering with a spinning kick that sent Mason staggering back, momentarily unbalanced. The two men collided in a deadly dance of fists, elbows, and knees, every blow a symphony of violence honed by years of brutal training. Each strike carried more than physical force; it was rage, obsession, betrayal, and love entwined, the culmination of a history of ambition, rivalry, and heartbreak. “You destroyed me!” Mason roared mid-strike, slashing at Chris with the dagger, each swing more frantic than the last. “You took everything I deserved!” Chris dodged the attack, letting the blade slice past his shoulder by inches, his muscles coiling like steel cables. He drove a knee into Mason’s ribs with surgical precision. “And you destroyed yourself!”
Chapter 515
Chris’s jaw clenched until his teeth ached. His shoulder throbbed violently, each heartbeat sending a hot spike of pain down his arm. Flesh, bone, and muscle screamed for him to stop. But no agony could override the fire burning inside his chest. Mason wasn’t escaping. Not while Chris still drew breath. He moved upward, one step at a time, methodically scanning the environment the way only a seasoned operative could. His gaze tracked every scrap of debris scattered along the stairwell. Twisted railings. Loose bolts. Shattered grates. Even shattered glass that crunching under his boots. All potential traps. All weapons that Mason could exploit. The air tasted metallic—like the inside of a dying machine. Halfway up, a hulking silhouette lunged out from behind a flight of stairs. A mercenary. The last one Mason had left behind to stall him. The brute swung a metal pipe with enough force to dent the wall. The air screamed as the weapon cut through it. Chris reacted on instinct—droppin
Chapter 514
The warehouse had fallen into a chaotic, almost oppressive silence, punctuated only by the distant groans of wounded mercenaries and the soft, ominous hiss of dust settling over shattered crates and broken machinery. Smoke clung to the air like a living thing, curling in thin, gray tendrils around overturned metal shelves and debris-strewn floors. The stench of gunpowder and scorched concrete hung thickly, filling Chris’s lungs with every ragged inhale. His chest heaved violently as he leaned against a fractured steel beam, the cold, jagged metal biting into his bruised shoulder. Pain radiated sharply through his ribs with every breath, a scorching reminder of the savage blows he had endured. Blood seeped through his torn shirt, the dark stain spreading with a life of its own, yet he barely noticed. Amidst the agony, amidst the storm of physical torment, one thought anchored him: Eva. She was pressed against the concrete floor a few meters away, trembling as though the very air its
Chapter 513
Mason looked at eva direction with a look that showed no signs of remorse.“You want me to stop when I'm just beginning to catch some fun. You should enjoy the show too.” Again, the rod began its deadly arc downward. Mason’s shadow loomed larger. His manic grin widened even further.The rod arced down, a metallic predator intent on ending Chris in an instant. Pain had already lanced through his shoulder and back, but he remained rigid, Eva’s eyes locked on his. She gasped, terrified, trembling, yet her gaze carried trust—a fragile lifeline in the maelstrom of chaos. And then— Then—a sharp, deafening crack split the air. The pipe flew out of mason’s hands and in the next split second one of Mason’s lackeys guarding Eva crumpled to the floor, a dark spray blossoming across the concrete. “Sniper,” one of the soldiers yelled. Chris’s head snapped toward the direction the bullet came from and allowed himself a brief moment of gratitude, a spark of hope flaring in the storm of adre
Chapter 512
Chris groaned in pain from the kick but didn't have enough time to recover as Mason swung the pipe towards him. Quickly , he jumped backwards to evade the attack. Mason glared at Chris in anger. “ What are you doing? Did you forget what situation you are in right now? Chris’s pulse hammered. “Chris…” Mason whispered, tone dropping into cold, predatory calm. “Killing you would be easy. Too easy. But breaking you?” His smile stretched, sick and eager. “That’s more interesting so just stay put and get beaten up ” And without warning— Mason struck again The rod came down with lethal force, the air splitting with its speed and this time Chris stood still without making an attempt to evade. The metallic rod collided with Chris’s shoulder with a sickening, bone-shattering crunch that echoed through the hollow construction tower. Pain lanced through his arm, sharp, hot, consuming every nerve ending, but he didn’t cry out. Not a single sound. Not a whimper. He staggered, then fell t
Chapter 511
The skeletal frame of the construction tower jutted into the night like the exposed ribs of some fallen titan. Rusted beams crisscrossed overhead, serrated edges catching the moonlight like jagged teeth ready to swallow anyone who dared step inside. Shattered windows gaped open across the tower’s facade, black and hollow like the eye sockets of a long-dead corpse. Even before Chris entered, the building breathed dread. The faint, rhythmic drip of water echoed through the hollow interior—slow, deliberate, almost like the tower itself was counting down. The air was thick with rust, mildew, damp concrete, and the metallic stench of old machinery. It felt like walking into the rotting heart of a nightmare. Chris moved cautiously through the debris-strewn floor, boots crunching over broken glass and twisted metal. Every step was calculated. Every muscle ready to spring. His training sharpened his senses, widening them like the aperture of a camera. He scanned the shadows for pressure pla
