In the midst of darkness that had covered the 2400 meter tall mountain situated near the border of the city, there was only one light that stood out. It was the flashlight of Russell’s mobile.Even as the mood hid itself behind the clouds, Russell was calling out for James as he explored the jungle-like mountain. Having roamed through the woods in the past two months while getting trained under the Agnar family, Russell was not afraid of roaming alone on this mountain now, even though it was quite dark, with all kinds of noises blasting his ears from different directions. From crickets to frogs and all kinds of creatures made distinct noises in some places, and in other places, there was this eerie silence where Russell could only hear his footsteps and nothing else.“I’ve heard that the government released deer and foxes to live on this mountain a few years back, but I haven’t seen a single deer yet. They must be sleeping somewhere that won’t be easy to find. Mm?” Russell noticed foo

At around five in the morning, Russell and James came down the mountain. They stopped at a small coffee stall. The shop owner saw Russell and gave him his jacket because he happened to have one as the temperatures during the night and early morning got pretty low near the mountain.Simple coffee wasn’t enough for James; he ate biscuits also.Russell drank hot almond milk, and it calmed his nerves. While James was busy eating, Russell started reading a newspaper because the headlines were about the Lynn family.“192 food production companies associated with the Lynn family have been closed in the past five weeks?” He was shocked because the number wasn’t as high when he last heard about it. He quickly read the details, thinking if they were closed because the companies weren’t following the rules properly. However, he couldn’t find any reason in the paper. “More than half of them are meat-producing companies, so they must have been making a lot of money.” He briefly thought about Liam.

When Russell came to the farm house, Kyra wasn’t there. He waited, but she didn’t come home. William came and began to pack all of Kyra’s luggage.“What’s going on? Where’s Kyra?” Russell asked him.“She’s at the new house,” William said.“... Did she say anything about me?” he expectantly asked, but William shook his head.“Oh, she asked me for the credit card,” William put his hand forth.“W-What?” Russell was shocked. He couldn’t believe that Kyra asked for the credit card she had given him. Frowning, he gave the card to William and asked. “Did she say anything else?”“Um,” William shook his head and walked away.Even though Russell’s ego was hurt, he still wanted to go to the new house, but she didn’t call him or tell him to come, so how could he just go there and live with her?He waited at the farm house, hoping she’d call him at some point, but he received no calls. The sun went down the horizon, and the moon was circling the sky.Gabe found himself sitting alone and eating the

Just as Kyra was about to leave in her car to meet Liam, William arrived. He took bags out of his car.Kyra recognized the luggage. “Why did you bring those bags here?”“Young Master Russell told me to do so, Young Lady.”“Oh…” she thought he packed the luggage as they were going to live in the new home from here onward. However, William came up to her and took out a credit card.“He also wanted me to give this to you,” William said, pursing his lips.Kyra’s face slowly but surely scrunched after realizing that it was the same wedding card that she had given to Russell.She took the card with a clenched jaw. “Does this mean he’s not coming here?”“I don’t know,” William said. “But if you ask me, Young Lady, I don’t think you should talk about the luggage or the credit card. Since he’s showing attitude when he’s in the wrong, then how much attitude should you show?”“I will deal with him after I come back,” saying that she left in her car.Meanwhile, in Tuna Waves hotel.The meeting fi

Denver was at the center of everybody’s attention. Rosie was glaring at him as she awaited his response. Ivan was coldly looking at him as if he would kill Denver if he didn’t take their side.Russell, on the other hand, was sitting right next to him.Denver truly didn’t know which side he should take. He was forced to buy the shares, even though he didn’t want to do this. Ivan had threatened to send people to his house to humiliate him and his father. He even told Denver he would send men to his mother who had left Denver and his dad. Denver had no other choice but to bend to Ivan’s demands.Even now, Denver was thinking about taking Ivan’s side because he believed that angering Russell wouldn’t have as much backlash as angering Ivan would.“Denver,” Rick felt the need to speak. “You got the job in this company not because of me but because of the person sitting next to you. He was willing to forget everything that happened between you after learning that you were also harassed by yo
