Chapter 400Minutes later, Mary returned, Gwen trailing behind her. Gwen’s face was pale, her eyes wide with a mix of exhaustion and worry.“What’s going on?” she asked, her voice shaky.Mary quickly filled her in, and Gwen’s eyes darted nervously between the group. “You want me to call Sterling? Pretend the police told me Charles is with him?”“Yes,” James said firmly. “You’re the mother of his son. He won’t ignore you, and your mention of the police will rattle him.”Gwen hesitated, biting her lip. “What if he calls my bluff?”“He won’t,” Gregor said. “Not immediately. He’ll be too busy trying to cover his tracks.”After a long pause, Gwen nodded. “Alright. I’ll do it.”Eric handed her phone to her. “Call him now. Put it on speaker so we can hear.”Gwen took a deep breath, her fingers trembling as she dialed Sterling’s number. The phone rang twice before his sharp voice came through.“Gwen? What do you want?”Gwen steadied herself, her voice firm despite the nervous quiver in her ch

Chapter 401
Chapter 401Mr. Sterling sat in his study, his fingers drumming anxiously against the polished mahogany desk. His jaw clenched, and his sharp, piercing eyes darted toward the phone lying in front of him. He had just gotten off the call with the police, and his mind was in turmoil.Furious. Curious. Paranoid.He didn’t understand how the police had found out so quickly. Just hours ago, his son was rescued, and now, suddenly, Gwen was demanding custody of Charles. How did they even know? Who told them? Has someone leaked information?His chest rose and fell with deep, heavy breaths as his frustration boiled over. His knuckles turned white as he slammed his fist onto the desk, making a few papers and a crystal pen holder topple over. His study was filled with silence except for the ticking of the grand antique clock mounted on the wall behind him.“Damn it,” he muttered under his breath.He ran a hand through his neatly combed hair, trying to steady himself. The last thing he needed was

Chapter 402
Chapter 402Meanwhile…Charles lay in a grand bedroom, wrapped in soft blankets on an enormous bed. The room was big—lavish, spacious, yet suffocatingly cold. He barely felt the warmth of the silk sheets beneath him.Earlier, the maids had bathed him, their hands gentle but distant as if afraid to touch him too much. They had dressed him in fresh clothes, fed him a warm meal, and now a doctor was attending to him, checking his pulse and murmuring to himself as he scribbled notes on a small pad.Charles barely paid attention. His mind was still tangled in the horrors of the past few days—the rough hands that had grabbed him, the muffled voices, the threats whispered in the dark. And now, after everything, he was here.In his father’s house.He had asked about his mother.“You won’t be seeing her anytime soon,” Mr. Sterling had said, his voice cold and final.Charles’ chest had tightened at those words. He had wanted to argue, to demand to see her, but he knew it was pointless. His fath

Chapter 403
Chapter 403Mr. Sterling led them through the grand hallway, their footsteps echoing against the polished marble floors. He could feel Gwen’s impatience behind him, her breath quick and shallow.When they reached Charles’ room, he knocked lightly before pushing the door open.Inside, Charles sat on the large bed, his small hands resting on his lap. His eyes lit up the moment he saw his mother.“Mom!” he cried, scrambling off the bed and running into Gwen’s open arms.Gwen clutched him tightly, pressing kisses to his hair as tears welled in her eyes. “Oh, baby, I missed you so much.”Charles sniffled. “I missed you too. I—I thought…” He hesitated, glancing at his father.Gwen pulled back slightly and cupped his face. “It’s okay. You’re safe now.”Mr. Sterling watched the scene unfold with cold detachment. He had expected this emotional reunion, but he wasn’t moved by it. All that mattered was ensuring that Gwen didn’t start asking too many questions.Detective Andrew observed the boy c

Chapter 404
Chapter 404After several days of searching for Scarface, Kai and Lina finally got a lead. Before now, Kai had been using Lina as bait to lure gang members who could share information about Scarface’s whereabouts. But the men who often fell for the traps were useless or didn’t know anything. Still, they had managed to gather small pieces of useful information. Each night, they would return to *Mr. Wibblebottom’s Hotel* to rest. It wasn’t romantic between them, but they had spent enough time together to understand each other better. As promised, Kai had paid off Lina’s mother’s hospital bills, and she was finally due for treatment. Overwhelmed with gratitude, Lina was head over heels and promised to do anything for him. Kai told her, “When this is over, I want you to work for me.” Lina blinked. “Work for you?” He nodded. As my PA at a big company in Emerald Falls.” She didn’t hesitate. “I’ll do it.” It was those little bits of information they had gathered that led them

Chapter 405
Chapter 405Scarface was hard to miss. His face, covered with scars that crisscrossed from both sides of his cheeks, gave him a feral, menacing look. His eyes were dark and cold, like two black stones, and his smile, if it could be called that, was cruel and twisted. His reputation preceded him—his brutality, his ruthlessness, the way he ruled The Pit. His presence made people move aside, like water parting for a storm.Behind him were five men—his inner circle, his trusted men. Each of them was imposing in their own right, dressed in expensive, sharp suits, the kind of men you wouldn’t dare cross unless you had a death wish.The first was tall, with a thick neck and arms like tree trunks, his face as hard as stone. The second, smaller in stature, but with an intensity in his eyes that spoke volumes, was the one who looked the most alert, scanning the room with a kind of hunger. The third was a broad-shouldered man with dark, slick hair, his grin widening as he scanned the club. The f

Chapter 406
Chapter 406The moment the bulky man’s hand rose, ready to strike Lina, a blur of motion cut through the thick air of *The Pit*. In an instant, Kai was there. With precise speed, his fingers wrapped around the man’s wrist, halting the slap just inches from Lina’s terrified face. Lina barely had time to flinch, her arms half-raised in a futile attempt to protect herself. She whimpered, curling in on herself, her breath coming out in quick, shallow gasps. She had seen violence before, but never this close, never aimed at her. A sharp gasp swept through the club, rippling through the onlookers like a shockwave. All eyes locked onto Kai, the stranger who had dared to defy one of Scarface’s top men. A murmur ran through the crowd. *"Who the hell is that?"* *"Does he have a death wish?"* *"He just stopped the Blood Hound."* The name carried weight, a menace that sent shivers down spines. Blood Hound—the man Kai had stopped—was one of Scarface’s most feared lieutenants, a brutal e

Chapter 407
Chapter 407Scarface’s chuckle sent a chill through the room. It wasn’t the kind of laughter that put people at ease—it was the kind that made them uneasy, the kind that meant something dangerous was about to happen.He leaned forward slightly, placing his glass on the table with deliberate slowness. The ice clinked against the sides, the only sound in the room aside from Blood Hound’s groaning as he lay on the ground, beaten and humiliated.Kai stood still, his body loose but ready. He could feel the weight of every gaze in The Pit pressing down on him. The tension in the air was thick, electric. Lina clutched his arm tightly, her fingers digging into his sleeve, but he didn’t look at her. His eyes were locked on Scarface.Scarface’s scarred face twisted into something that was neither a frown nor a smile. His dark eyes flicked between Kai and Blood Hound before he exhaled through his nose and leaned back again.“That was quite the show.” His voice was smooth, yet there was a roughne

Chapter 408
Chapter 408Immediately, another lieutenant, a towering brute with cold, soulless eyes named Crusher, ordered everyone out of the pit with a menacing tone that sent shivers down their spines. "Get the hell out!" he barked, his deep voice cutting through the air like a blade. Panic broke loose. People scrambled for the exits, pushing and shoving in desperation. Then, a gunshot rang out. A deafening bang. A sharp, sudden end to someone's life. The crowd screamed, hysteria spreading like wildfire. A man collapsed, lifeless, blood pooling beneath him. Viper stood there, his gun smoking, his face void of any remorse. He had killed someone in cold blood, just for the thrill of it. More screams. More chaos. People rushed toward the exits even faster, tripping over chairs, knocking over tables, desperate to escape. Viper turned slowly, his lips curling into a cruel smirk as he raised his gun again. This time, he pointed it at Lina. "And you," he said, his voice laced with sadi

Chapter 409
Chapter 409Kai continued to swing the detonator casually in his hand, the small device spinning between his fingers like it was nothing more than a toy. His voice was steady, his tone almost indifferent.“She was hired to kill my boss,” he said, his eyes locked onto Scarface. “And in the attempt, I killed her.”Scarface’s expression remained unreadable, but there was a flicker of something behind his eyes. Interest. Suspicion. Maybe both.Kai kept walking, slow and deliberate, like he had all the time in the world. “Later, I found out she’s from around here,” he continued, his voice calm but sharp. “She runs one of the biggest gangs in this city.” He stopped and turned to face Scarface again. “And now, I’m on a mission to wipe her entire operation off the surface of the earth.”The words hung in the air for a moment, thick with intent.“But first,” Kai added, his tone shifting slightly, “I need to find the man who hired her to assassinate my boss.”A faint smirk played at his lips as
