The dimly lit room crackled with tension as Nathan Amber, a man in his late 20s, loomed over the trembling figure of Deltrey Hamel, the powerful president of the Hamel Group, Belloberg City's largest conglomerate. Deltrey was a man in his late 30s with blonde hair and blue eyes. The air was thick with an unspoken threat, and the cold, steel chair on which Deltrey was bound seemed to tighten its grip with every passing second.Nathan's eyes bore into Deltrey's, as if daring him to speak the truth. The room's single, flickering light bulb cast ominous shadows that danced across the walls. Also revealing Nathan’s dark hair and hazel eyes. Nathan's voice was a low, dangerous growl that cut through the silence like a razor."Who is the puppet master pulling your strings, Deltrey?" Nathan's tone left no room for evasion.Deltrey's pallid face was slick with sweat, his eyes darting frantically as he tried to create a response. He stammered, "I don't... I don't know what you're talking about.

He turned to Karina one final time. "Give me the jade ring pendant I gave to you." He asked politely. Since Karina had no idea what Tinder was, he has hidden it from her over the years. Now that they are divorced, he couldn’t hide it with her anymore and would need it back.“Why should I give it to you? After all I’ve done for you, all you can think about is taking back the jade ring pendant you gave me. Karina bombarded him with questions. Since he was not interested in collecting the settlement on the divorce papers, she wondered why he would ask for something as small as the jade ring pendant."Please, I would need it back. I know you might not see the pendant as important, but it has been in my family for generations since you divorced me; it’s best you give it back to me,” Nathan pleaded.Karina felt that she shouldn’t make a fuss about it, so she removed the pendant and gave it to him. With that, he left the office, feeling a complex mixture of relief and heartache. The words a

As they sat in the car, including the bodyguard in the backseat, Gwen started the car and drove off. “What was that back there? You were so determined,” Gwen said with her gaze focused on the road.“Yeah, that pendant holds a significant meaning in my life. I am sorry if the behavior turned you off,” Nathan replied. He didn’t want to let any of them know that the pendant was the Tinder. It’s very important for him to get to the truth about who killed his parents.Though Gwen was dissatisfied with Nathan's earlier behavior, she wasn't angry with him. She understood that there were times when immediate action was necessary, and Nathan's actions had shown his determination to recover the pendant.“I completely understand,” she said calmly.Nathan had a lot of questions for Gwen; one was how Gwen knew about him and various other questions, but he knew this was not the time to start asking those questions; he wanted them to get to their destination first.***Meanwhile, Karina had rushed d

“No, he needs to prove himself; how am I sure that he could treat my grandfather? I don’t want to take any chances,” Emily complained, gazing at Nathan with distrust in her eyes.Nathan moved closer to Emily, gazing into her eyes. “As you wish,” he said calmly.Suddenly, Emily started to lose control over her body as she moved away from Nathan. She tried to scream but realized that she couldn’t say anything as her lips were also sealed. Nathan was the one who cast the spell over her; he used his mind and hands to cast the spell; he was controlling her like a marionette.Gwen noticed that Emily was not talking and was moving back as she wondered what was going on. She looked at Nathan and noticed the hand signs he was making as she realized that Nathan was the one controlling her.“What are you doing to my sister? Let her..." Before she could finish her statement, Nathan cut her off.“Look, this is for you and your family’s own good. Your sister is only going to get in the way of your

***Nathan and Gwen were in the back seat of her car, and her driver was driving them over to Nathan’s destination. Gwen felt that it was the least she could do since Nathan saved her grandfather’s life.“I am sorry for everything that happened back there; that stupid doctor came and destroyed your formation. When my grandfather was pronounced dead by that doctor, I thought you were the one who did it because the doctor was putting the blame on you, and I also believed it. I am sorry about that; I shouldn’t have doubted you,” she apologized calmly.“I don’t care about that; what matters is that I was able to save your grandfather just like I promised I would,” Nathan replied in a nonchalant tone. He was not there when they were passing the blame on him, so he didn’t care about anything that she was apologizing for.Hearing that Gwen took a liking to him, as she felt that Nathan was a genuine and good person who didn’t care about what others thought of him. She wanted to associate hers
