“Damn it!” Jay glared at Jordan. He became annoyed that Jordan didn't answer his question.In a moment Jay could instantly feel the immense pressure from Jordan. His eyes didn't even radiate fear at all. Jay was sure that this person was not just anyone who came here.Irritated, Jay pulled his hand away, but Jordan didn't let go of his grip. In fact, the more Jay tried the tighter Jordan held him.Jay clenched his teeth, not liking Jordan's actions. “Oh, it turns out that this hospital has the nerve to act. Deliberately hiring thugs like this to obstruct us, huh? You'd better stay out of it if you still care about your fate, you village thug!”Jordan narrowed his eyes. He was seriously watching Jay's gestures. From the movement of his eyes, mouth, and behavior, he seemed to have a protector who he considered a strong man.Not long after, Doctor Aurelia arrived and she firmly stepped closer. Her gaze was sharp at Jay who had an unpleasant look on his face. “Why are you here again? I t

“How did it get like this?” Whitley muttered it several times.The thin nails on his fingers pinched her lips incessantly. Occasionally she would bite them. Slowly but surely, Whitley walked to the right, then to the left again, and to the right again. She did so with furrowed brows.The scream from Andreas on the phone was still ringing in her head. It penetrated and seemed to squeeze her head. Moreover, Whitley had heard the news that Andreas had actually been arrested by the police.Whitley did not want to believe that fact. Because in the city of Duskvale, even a god should not be able to touch their slippery skin. The police who were supposed to be on the Brown family's side should not have done that.Whitley bit her fingernails again. “How is this?”Like a breath of air, this worry slipped into Whitley's chest until her breathing became heavier. Andreas' father, Johan, had told Whitley not to worry as he would take care of Andreas. However, the unceasing doubt stabbed at Whitley

“Finally!” Andreas exclaimed, the corners of his lips lifting, forming a wide, almost cocky smile. The morning air felt fresher as he stepped out of the cold bars, his mind light as if a huge weight had just been lifted. He strode with his chest puffed out, as if this vast earth was his again. “This is how a member of the Brown family should feel!” As soon as the police station door opened, Andreas looked back with a sharp gaze full of mockery. He spat on the ground, his spittle landing with a low sound that sounded piercing amongst the silence. In a deliberately slow motion, he pointed his middle finger at the officers on duty. “You should know who you're dealing with!”The policeman on guard could only hold his breath, his eyes narrowed with seething anger. His hands were clenched at his sides, but he remained motionless. In front of him stood a man dressed in military garb, his aura stern and intimidating, a figure he clearly did not want to challenge. Acting rashly would only mak

Harvey's hand slid right into the can. The sound of the catch loudly split the air. It turned out to be an unopened drink. Harvey gave Don a knife-sharp glance. “What you're doing is dangerous. You might hurt someone.”The can in Harvey's hand shrivels, the metal dented by his firm grip. With a slow motion, Harvey tosses the can aside. The clinking sound of the can broke the silence between them. Slowly but with a heavy aura, Harvey turns his body around. So that he and Don were now facing each other.Don clicked his tongue. He strides over haughtily, pointing at Harvey. “This is all because of you!”His voice held a firm emotion, as if ready to ignite the fire of rage within him. “You caused this accident and now you want to run away. You want to run away from responsibility, huh?”The people who had gathered earlier now began to swarm around Harvey and Don like ants. They were looking at Harvey with piercing gazes, like they were looking at a hunted animal caught in a trap.One man

Harvey closed his eyes slowly as if he was holding back something big. Slowly, he took in his surroundings as he opened his eyes. Then with a slightly faint but firm gaze, Harvey exhaled a long breath.The sound of the exhale was like a wave breaking the air. In an instant the atmosphere became more tense than before. Immediately the tension crept into Jordan's mind. He who was standing next to Harvey could feel something was wrong. “Is there something going on? The General doesn't seem happy.”With authority and firmness, Harvey turned to Jordan. Making Jordan immediately stand up straight, ready to listen to the general's orders. His eyes were straight ahead, unable to look at Harvey's sharp as a sword gaze. He knew that Harvey was about to say something.Harvey squinted slightly, implying a slight feeling of disappointment. He slowly opened his lips. “How did this happen?”Jordan tilted his head slightly. Harvey's short speech was still like a riddle in Jordan's head. “What do you
