Christian was extremely surprised when he saw the head of the orphanage, the motherly figure, in a photo with Zofia. He had never known about this before; his first encounter with Zofia was when she came to his company to submit a tender proposal.However, there was no suspicion in Christian’s mind, and he didn’t consider the photo to be peculiar. Consequently, he placed it back where it belonged.Little did he know, if he had delved into the truth, Anika and Zofia shared a much closer bond than he could imagine. Anika was, in fact, Zofia’s biological mother.For a long time, Manuel and Carmen had claimed that Zofia’s birth mother died in an accident, but it was all mere nonsense. Carmen was the mastermind behind it all. She had planned Anika’s murder by tampering with the brakes of her car, resulting in a severe accident. Anika had to remain in a coma for a year before finally regaining consciousness.However, by the time Anika woke up, Manuel had already remarried Carmen.Of course,

Naoki was truly surprised when he saw Christian approaching with blazing anger, almost causing him to jump.“Mr. Demetri, you finally came!” exclaimed Naoki.Emma was startled by what Naoki said, as was Christian.In the current situation, Naoki should have been cornered for his wrongdoing. But why was he so relieved by Christian’s presence?This was confusing!“What do you mean? Let her go!”Christian pointed at Naoki, who still had his hand on Emma’s shoulder.Naoki immediately released Mrs. Emma calmly.“She invited me to collaborate in committing a crime. She told me that she would give me 100 million to cover up her wrongdoing,” Naoki lied.Christian furrowed his brow. Then he asked, “What kind of crime are you talking about?”Naoki looked at Emma first and said, “You stay here, don’t try to escape!”After saying that, Naoki

After receiving instructions from her father, the woman immediately prepared the healing potion for the God.30 minutes later, Christian finished performing the movements given by Lee within the duration specified by the old man.“How about it, do you feel anything within you?” Lee asked as Christian just sat down beside him.The usually cold floor didn’t feel cold to Christian after the exercise, but now, for some reason, it felt colder.“I feel my body becoming lighter. But actually, I wanted a more challenging workout. At least like the first time, lifting water weights,” Christian said, feeling dissatisfied with the given exercise.Lee raised his eyebrows, asking, “Why? Aren’t you satisfied with the current training?”“I’m not sweating at all; I don’t think this is a workout. It’s more like meditation,” Christian replied.Perhaps Christian forgot Lee’s words about exploring the natural power within him to make it the core strength. Or maybe he wasn’t aware that what Lee gave him w

Emma hesitated in her response. She was worried that Zofia might misinterpret what she said, which could adversely affect Zofia’s relationship with Christian Demetri.“Why are you silent? Come on, tell me! Tell everything without covering up or exaggerating!” Zofia exclaimed with an impatient expression due to her overwhelming curiosity. She couldn’t help but be curious, as this concerned her parents.“Mr. Demetri got angry and decided to bankrupt Mr. Manuel and take over the entire Kowalska family,” explained Emma.Zofia furrowed her brow upon hearing this. She knew Christian was a strong and influential person. However, Zofia doubted whether Christian could bankrupt her family.“So, what happened next? Can Mr. Demetri really make my family go bankrupt?” asked Zofia. She attempted to move to lean against the bedhead, but due to the pain in her stomach, she refrained.Emma nodded. Then she said, “Mr. Demetri can do it in the blink of an eye. He said it at night, and by morning, the ci

Darrell fell silent upon receiving that question from Diego. He, too, began to doubt the decision he had just made.However, Darrell couldn’t retract what he had said because, at the moment, the best course of action was to surprise Ravon and Gideon Young.After contemplating for a moment, Darrell said, “In that case, you need to control your emotions better. Only act if they engage physically. I’m giving you a chance to defend yourself and your troops.”“As for that matter, I understand. But should we discuss this issue with Mr. Demetri? What if he disagrees with our current actions?” Diego asked. His facial expression clearly revealed his fear that Christian would be greatly displeased with him.Darrell replied, “Currently, Mr. Demetri cannot be reached. He’s been going back and forth between Puncak and New York for several days; I don’t know what he’s up to, but it seems crucial for him. It’s related to his preparation to face Ravon.”Diego furrowed his brow, feeling perplexed. “Wh
