"Choose a side," Samantha whispered desperately, her eyes darting towards the door leading to the stairs as Harry's footsteps echoed loudly."Pack it up before he arrives!" Martin commanded.Samantha swiftly grabbed the camera and her backpack, bolting into her room. Meanwhile, Martin hurriedly adjusted his clothes, moving the remote out of reach as nervousness enveloped him like a suffocating fog.He sat there, each second feeling like an eternity as he waited for Harry to arrive. He couldn't wait for Harry to come so he could apologize and express his gratitude for helping him out of jail.After a few minutes, Jade and Harry finally pushed open the door to the living room. Harry stepped inside while Jade followed closely behind.Upon seeing Martin, Harry's eyes widened in shock. "What are you doing here?" Jade asked, her voice laced with disbelief at finding Martin in their house. Harry stood frozen, feeling as though the world had come to a halt as the shock settled in. He wondered

Harry arrived at the capital mall to buy groceries and satisfy a craving for chocolate cake. Excited to finally visit the mall after a busy period, Harry locked his car and entered the mall entrance. The security guard greeted him with a smile, and Harry returned the gesture before stepping inside.As he walked through the mall, Harry waved at the receptionist and took in the vast array of shops and products. The sight of different varieties of chocolate cake caught his attention, causing a momentary confusion about which one to choose.Pausing in front of a display of beautifully decorated cakes, Harry decided to explore the mall further before making a final decision. He appreciated the CEO's efforts in providing a well-furnished mall with a wide range of options for shoppers.Standing in the middle of the mall, Harry couldn't help but smirk at the idea of trying different cake designs and flavors. He was tempted to go beyond his original plan and indulge in tasting the various opti

After a few minutes, Harry finally arrived at his house. He heaved a sigh of relief as he stepped out of his car, delicately carrying the chocolate cakes. Glancing into the garage, he noticed Jade's car wasn't there."Shit!" he muttered silently. There was no one to enjoy the cakes with him, and he had bought six different designs in the hope of seeing Jade at home. Pietro couldn't be counted on since he was always invincible.Preparing to refrigerate the remaining cakes, he hurriedly took the elevator and reached the door to the living room. Slowly pushing it open, he made sure not to let the cakes fall and spoil their fragile shapes.Settling at the table, he ventured into the kitchen to get some wine. After a few minutes, he poured himself a glass, placing the cake on a tray along with knives to cut it."Yeah!" he smiled adoringly at the food before him. But just before he started to dig in, he noticed his phone was out of reach. He quickly headed to his room, remembering he had

Samantha sat there, her mind swirling with different thoughts as she struggled to comprehend whether Martin had really betrayed her or if Harry had discovered the truth himself.The fact that Harry was considering hiring her again to play both sides didn't sit well with her. She knew it wasn't just a risky mission for herself, but it also endangered the lives of her loved ones.As she sat there, tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision.Harry didn't seem to notice and said, "I'm not just offering you a chance at redemption, but also an opportunity to save your family."Her eyes darted around slowly, a mixture of curiosity and confusion coursing through her veins."What do you mean?" she asked, her voice tinged with uncertainty."Your mother!" Her jaw dropped to the floor, and she raised an eyebrow in surprise. "What happened to her?" she seethed.Harry swallowed hard, relaxing back in his chair. "She is being held hostage by..." A momentary pause from him forced Samantha to

As soon as the door swung open, Stanley swiftly drew his gun and pointed it in the intruder's direction."Freeze!" he shouted. "Drop everything you have, or I'll have to shoot."All eyes fixated on the scene, except for Jade, who covered her face, her head bent over, beads of sweat forming on her forehead.Harry quickly assessed the man before them. His attire resembled that of a martial arts practitioner from ancient movies, complete with a stick as his weapon. Despite his physique not being particularly intimidating, he exuded an air of expertise, perhaps due to his age and old-fashioned appearance. From head to toe, he seemed as if he had stepped out of the 17th century."You had a gun in here?" Pietro expressed his surprise."And how the hell did you manage that? You were searched, Stan," he added.Stanley remained focused, his gaze fixed on the culprit, and replied, "I'm a detective for a fucking reason!”"I said freeze! Hands up, man!" Stanley hollered, but the man remained stil
