ALMIGHTY DOMINANCE LOST HEIR
“Look at this cockroach!” Johnson sneered, pacing around Max like a predator sizing up his prey. “You think you can fight me? You’ve been scurrying in the dirt your whole life!”
Laughter erupted from the crowd. “He’s about to get squashed!” someone shouted.
“Yeah, show him who’s boss, Johnson!” another chimed in.
Johnson flexed his arms dramatically, turning to the crowd. “This rat thinks he’s a lion now, huh?” he spat, pointing at Max. “But all I see is a mangy stray dog, begging for scraps!”
The crowd whooped and hollered, eagerly anticipating the fight.
“You’re nothing but a street mutt,” Johnson continued, his voice brimming with arrogance. “I’ve trained with the best, and you? You’ve been running from garbage collectors your whole life!”
Max stepped forward, his gaze steady, though his heart raced. “You talk too much,” he muttered, squaring his shoulders. “Let’s just get this over with.”
Max was dumped by his girlfriend, just because he was poor.But his life turned upside down when at police station, he gets to know that he is not a common man, but

Chapter: CHAPTER 111One elder, a stern woman with silver hair, leaned forward.“Your reckless actions have drawn enemies to our gates, Max. You’ve endangered everything we’ve built.”Another elder, a balding man, added, “Your defiance against this council is unacceptable. Do you deny your role in the chaos that has befallen the Montgomery name?”Max’s jaw tightened, but he spoke with measured calm.“I deny nothing. The attacks on this family weren’t caused by me—they were orchestrated by someone in this very room.”The hall fell silent as Max placed the evidence on the table. He slid the ledger, surveillance images, and documents from the safehouse across the polished wood.“This is proof of decades of betrayal. Proof that someone among us has been manipulating this family for their own gain.”The elders leaned forward, scanning the documents.Some paled as they read, while others exchanged wary glances.A few shook their heads in disbelief.“This is absurd,” one elder scoffed, shoving the papers aside.

Chapter: CHAPTER 110Max turned to her, his voice low but firm.“Then we take him down. Expose everything.”Molly glanced up from the laptop.“That’s easier said than done. Reginald’s been covering his tracks for decades. And if he’s as powerful as this makes him look, he’ll know we’re onto him.”Back at the Montgomery estate, Max and his team regrouped in the war room, laying out the evidence they’d collected.The sheer scope of Reginald’s influence was staggering—bank accounts, property holdings, and a network of loyalists within the family council.“This isn’t just one man,” Gerald said, gesturing to the files.“This is an empire within the family. He’s been playing the long game, and we’re just now catching up.”Max stared at the ledger from the vault, now cross-referenced with the safehouse documents.“Elliot never realized he was being used. Reginald manipulated him just like everyone else.”Emily leaned against the table, her voice soft.“Max, if Reginald knows you’re onto him…”“He’ll come after m

Chapter: CHAPTER 109The room was silent except for the hum of the tablet as Max and his allies analyzed the anonymous message.The single name—Reginald Montgomery—hung in the air like a storm cloud.“Reginald,” Emily repeated, her voice uncertain.“Your great-uncle?”Max nodded, his jaw tight.“He’s one of the oldest and most powerful members of the family. If this message is right… he’s the one pulling all the strings.”Molly frowned, staring at the screen.“But why? What could he gain from tearing down the family he’s part of?”“Power,” Gerald said grimly, stepping forward.“Reginald’s been consolidating power for decades. If he orchestrated all this, it wasn’t just to hurt the Stokes or your father. It was to make himself untouchable.”Red Fang crossed his arms, his tone skeptical.“So how do we know this isn’t another setup?”Max’s eyes narrowed.“We find out. Trace the message.”The trail led them to a dilapidated safehouse on the outskirts of the city, its exterior overgrown with ivy and weeds.The

Chapter: CHAPTER 108Victor stumbled out of the burning Montgomery estate, clutching his bleeding shoulder.His breaths came in ragged gasps as he glared back at the mansion.The mission had failed, but his anger burned hotter than his pain.“This isn’t over,” he muttered, disappearing into the shadows.Inside, Max leaned heavily against a pillar as Gerald reached down to help him up.“You’ve seen better days,” Gerald said dryly, gripping Max’s arm.Max winced but accepted the help.“What are you doing here, Gerald? Last I checked, you were locked away.”Gerald smirked faintly.“Let’s just say I know this estate better than the people who tried to keep me locked up.”Max pulled his arm free, his eyes narrowing.“Why should I believe you? You betrayed this family once. What’s stopping you from doing it again?”Gerald sighed, leaning against a nearby wall.“I didn’t come here to ask for your trust, Max. I came because I realized the truth—and because I owe you and your father more than I can ever repay.”Ma

Chapter: CHAPTER 107Outside, Red Fang and his men engaged the intruders, their movements sharp and deadly.Bullets ricocheted off walls and statues, and the estate’s gardens became a warzone.“Push them back!” Red Fang roared, slicing through one of the attackers with brutal precision.“No one gets inside!”One of his men called out, “Sir, they’re too coordinated! It’s like they’ve been planning this for months.”Red Fang growled.“Then we make them regret it.”Max fought his way through the chaos, dispatching intruders with swift, precise movements.He moved with purpose, his mind focused on one thing: stopping whoever was behind this.As he entered the grand hall, he froze.At the far end of the room stood Victor Kane, his face illuminated by the flickering flames of a shattered chandelier.“Well, well,” Victor said, his smirk infuriatingly smug.“Look who decided to join the party.”Max’s eyes narrowed.“Victor. I should’ve known.”Victor chuckled, stepping forward.“Elliot sends his regards. He wante

Chapter: CHAPTER 106Except it wasn’t labeled openly. It was hidden under a false title: Financial Restructuring Plans, 1980–1990.“Clever,” Molly muttered as Max pulled the file.He opened it on a nearby table, revealing decades-old documents, photographs, and letters.The contents were damning.Max flipped through the file, each page painting a picture darker than the last. The Montgomery family had secretly funded illegal activities to maintain their grip on power:sabotage of competitors, bribes to government officials, and even orchestrated “accidents” for allies who became liabilities.“This…” Emily whispered, her eyes wide.“This is corruption on a massive scale.”Max’s hand froze on a photograph of his father with Nathaniel Stoke, both men shaking hands at the announcement of the pact.The caption read: Partnership for a New Era.“Look at this,” Max said, pointing to a memo dated weeks after the pact collapsed.“‘Ensure complete control by eliminating dissent.’” He clenched his fist. “This is pro

Chapter: 13Mark Young, the class president, sat diligently at her desk, immersed in her studies. Ethan glanced at her, pretending to do his own homework. He could tell that she was under pressure, but her dedication to her work was impressive.At the back of the classroom, Patriack Montgomery, slumped over his desk, still recovering from a hangover. The smell of alcohol lingered around him, and his disheveled appearance made it clear he had been partying hard the night before.The door creaked open, and Kim Jin-soo, Patriack’s closest friend, walked in with his usual smirk. He looked directly at Mark, his eyes gleaming with mischief.“Hey, Mark,” Jin-soo greeted her casually. “Mr. Johnson wants to see you. He said something about needing help with organizing materials for the upcoming test.”Mark raised an eyebrow, looking up from her notes. “Mr. Johnson? I didn’t hear anything about that.”“Oh, yeah, it’s really urgent,” Jin-soo insisted, his smile widening. “He’s waiting for you in the old tea

Chapter: 12Ethan sat at his desk, examining the Demon Revealing Mirror's glowing screen."Suspicion level: Teacher J. Investigate carefully."He sighed, running a hand through his hair. “Guess it’s you first, Teach.”The next day, Ethan walked into a small electronics shop. The shopkeeper glanced up from a magazine. “What’ll it be, kid?”“I need something discreet,” Ethan said, sliding a few bills onto the counter. “A tape recorder or anything small enough to hide.”The man raised an eyebrow but handed over a compact recorder and a few spare batteries. “Keep outta trouble.Later that evening, Ethan waited until the school was empty. His heart pounded as he crept toward Teacher J’s office.This is reckless, he thought, gripping the recorder tightly. But if he’s involved in something shady, I need proof.Quietly, Ethan slipped inside. The faint smell of coffee lingered as he scanned the cluttered desk. Carefully, he tucked the recorder beneath a stack of papers and slipped out unnoticed.The next

Chapter: 11Ethan pushed open the classroom door cautiously, his tardiness drawing the immediate glare of his teacher, Mrs. Larkins.“Walker,” she said sharply, slamming the attendance book on her desk. “Do you have any idea what time it is?”“Uh, good morning, Mrs. Larkins,” Ethan said with a sheepish grin.“It’s almost afternoon. Sit down.”Ethan shuffled to his seat, the weight of the classroom's collective stares following him. He dropped into his chair, resolving to turn over a new leaf. Focus. Get through this. Prove you’re serious about changing.By the time the lecture on advanced calculus began, Ethan’s determination started to waver. The numbers on the board seemed to blur, his eyelids growing heavier with each passing second.“Walker!”Ethan jerked awake, nearly toppling his desk. Mrs. Larkins was standing over him, her arms crossed. “Sleeping already? Care to explain?”Thinking quickly, Ethan activated the Demon Revealing Mirror in his pocket. Its screen glowed faintly as he summoned

Chapter: 1010Ethan hurried down the hallway, already cursing his luck. The morning had been nothing but a disaster. His alarm hadn’t gone off, he’d missed the bus, and now he was sprinting to class, barely managing to squeeze through the door as the final bell rang.“Mr. Walker,” Mr. Hendricks, his math teacher, said without even looking up. “How kind of you to grace us with your presence.”Ethan forced a smile. “Sorry, sir. Won’t happen again.”“Sit down before I change my mind about marking you present.”Sliding into a desk at the back of the room, Ethan let out a quiet sigh. Great start to the day.By the time second period rolled around, Ethan found himself struggling to stay awake. Between practicing his Voice Modulation skill and worrying about the mirror, he’d barely slept. His head drooped, and his eyes fluttered shut.“Mr. Walker!”Ethan jolted awake. Mr. Hendricks stood over him, arms crossed and a scowl plastered on his face. “Would you care to explain why my riveting lecture on quad

Chapter: 9Ethan sat at the kitchen table, the mirror glowing in front of him. His eyes focused on the screen, his fingers swiping across the glass as he activated the Voice Modulation skill once again.“This is ridiculous,” he muttered, glancing at the clock. “It should be easier by now.”He took a deep breath and pressed the button. “Okay, let’s try this again.”“Hello, this is Emily Walker,” he said in a near-perfect imitation of his sister’s voice. He had practiced her tone, her pauses, and her mannerisms until it felt almost natural.After a few seconds of listening to his own voice echo back, he frowned. “It’s still not right.”It’ll have to do. I don’t have time to perfect it today.Just then, the phone rang. Ethan’s heart skipped. It’s them.With a swift motion, he grabbed the phone and, without missing a beat, activated the skill. He cleared his throat and put on a faltering but determined voice.“Hello?”“It’s your brother. Where’s the money?!” The voice on the other end was gruff, imp

Chapter: 88Emily Walker trudged up the apartment stairs, her body weighed down by exhaustion. She fumbled with the keys, her mind drifting to Ethan and Adam.I hope they ate dinner. Maybe I can pick up something nice for them on payday.Before she could unlock the door, Ethan appeared behind her, grinning.“Hey, Em. Don’t go in just yet.”She turned, startled. “Ethan? What’s going on?”“Trust me,” he said, holding up a blindfold.“Seriously? I just got home!”“Come on,” he coaxed. “It’s a surprise. You’ll like it.”Emily sighed, too tired to argue. “Fine, but this better be good.”Ethan carefully tied the blindfold over her eyes and guided her down the stairs.“Where are we going?” she asked, a hint of suspicion in her voice.“Patience,” Ethan replied, his tone light.The blindfold came off to reveal a small but cozy house, its windows glowing warmly in the night.Emily froze, her mouth slightly open. “Ethan… what is this?”“Our new home,” Ethan said, his smile wide.Her eyes darted between hi
