Rise Of The Supreme General CHAPTER 28
Monica’s temper ignited. “That bastard! How could he demand something so outrageous?” she hissed, her voice dripping with fury. The entire Penthouse family exchanged uneasy glances. They knew exactly what Adam was asking for: The Golden Lounge—the crown jewel of Almond City, valued at over $500 million. Handing it over to someone like Adam wasn’t just humiliating; it was financial suicide. Mr. Penthouse swallowed hard, forcing himself to speak carefully, masking his growing panic. “Mr. Adam, please... this is too much. Surely there’s something else you’d accept?” For a brief moment, silence blanketed the room—until Jerry, who had been holding his tongue throughout the ordeal, could no longer contain himself. “We can’t give you the Golden Lounge!” he snapped, frustration boiling over. “That suite is worth hundreds of millions! It’s not just our pride—it’s the backbone of our entire income!” He glared at Adam, fists clenched. At first, Jerry had enjoyed watching Adam torment Drak
Rise Of The Supreme General CHAPTER 29
The guard’s nostrils flared, his knuckles whitening as his hand clenched into a fist. For a second, it looked like he might swing, but he hesitated—years of training keeping him in check. This was the Golden Lounge. One wrong move, and they'd be out faster than a dropped badge. "Get lost before I put you in the hospital," the other guard threatened, voice low and dangerous. Adam leaned closer, unfazed. "You still don’t know who you’re dealing with. But trust me—you will, and you’ll regret every word." The shouting escalated, tension thick in the air. Their commotion echoed through the lobby, catching the secretary’s attention. In a flurry, she hurried toward them, heels clicking on the polished floor. The sharp clack of heels grew louder as a slender woman with sharp features and a no-nonsense expression approached. Her name tag read Vanessa. She crossed her arms as she reached the guards, her cold gaze flickering to Adam. "What’s going on here?" she demanded, her tone sharp
Rise Of The Supreme General CHAPTER 30
Jerry shifted uneasily on his feet, stealing a glance at Adam, who remained calm as ever. Clearing his throat, Jerry lowered his voice. “Sir... Do you want me to punish them? I’ll handle it however you see fit.” His hands were clasped in front of him respectfully, his tone full of caution. After witnessing what Adam did to his brother, Drake, Jerry knew better than to push his luck with this man.Adam didn’t answer right away, letting the weight of silence hang in the air just long enough to make Jerry sweat. Finally, Adam flicked a glance toward the guards, who stood frozen, faces pale with regret. “Get them out of here,” Adam said quietly, but with enough force to make the command feel like a hammer dropping. “And make sure they leave without a cent. No salary, no severance. Nothing.”The guards’ faces drained of color as the reality of Adam’s words hit them like a punch to the gut. They wanted to argue, to plead their case, but one look at Jerry told them it would be pointless.Van

Adam was stretched out in the penthouse lounge, eyes half-closed, relaxing after the smooth massage from Vanessa.Then his phone buzzed. He grabbed it from the table without hesitation.“Lord Adam,” a voice greeted him. It was Stacey.“I’ve found a clue on what you’re looking for. The amulet.”Adam sat up instantly, his mood shifting. “I’m on my way,” he said.He slipped the phone into his pocket.On the way to his car, he spotted an SUV pulling up too close for comfort. His brow furrowed when he recognized it—the Odias. Monica, his ex-mother-in-law, stepped out first, her expression dripping with disdain. Robin, her son, followed right after, grinning like he had already won something.Adam’s shoulders stiffened. This was the last thing he needed today.“Well, well,” Monica started, folding her arms. “Look who’s still crawling around the city like some stray dog.”Adam stayed silent, locking eyes with her, waiting.Robin sneered. “You know why we’re here, Adam. Where’s the ten millio
Rise Of The Supreme General CHAPTER 32
“How dare this man slap the Matriarch of the Odias, twice?”“Isn't he their trash son-in-law?”“He's going to be in so much trouble!”“Ha! I guess the rich aren't so strong, he couldn't even lay a finger on that stray dog.”The conversations from the onlookers continue.—Adam stood over them, calm and unmoved. “You two need to learn something. You don’t threaten me.”Robin lay on the pavement, writhing in pain. Monica crouched beside him, both of them too stunned to say anything more.“I'll make you regret this, Adam. I swear with my life!” Robin roared.Adam adjusted his coat and gave them a last, dismissive glance. “Next time, don’t bite off more than you can chew.”Without another word, he turned and walked away, leaving them in the dust, broken and humiliated under the weight of their own arrogance.****In the Odia family’s expansive sitting room, the atmosphere was one of quiet luxury. Mr. Luther sat in his favorite leather chair, nursing a glass of whiskey. Rhea, lounged acros
Rise Of The Supreme General CHAPTER 33
On the other end, Racheal, who was in her office, was startled by her father’s tone. “What’s going on?”“Your mother and brother just got assaulted—by Adam,” Mr. Luther said grimly. “Get here immediately. We need to discuss how we’re going to deal with this.”“I’m on my way,” Racheal responded sharply before the line went dead.Mr. Luther slid the phone back into his pocket, his jaw tight with anger. He turned to Monica, who was dabbing at her cheek with a tissue.“I’ll take care of this,” Mr. Luther assured her, his voice low but firm. “Adam will wish he never laid a hand on this family.”Monica sniffed, her pride still wounded. “Make sure you do, Luther. I want him back behind bars where he belongs.”“Oh, I will,” Mr. Luther said darkly. “By the time I’m done with him, he’ll be begging to go back to prison.”Rhea leaned back against the wall, arms still folded. “I hope you break him, Dad. He deserves every bit of what’s coming.”Mr. Luther gave her a grim smile. “Don’t worry, my de
Rise Of The Supreme General CHAPTER 34
Adam and Stacey stepped out of the car, the wind stirring dust along the cracked pavement as they stood before the old antique shop. The shop’s sign was weathered, its paint peeling off in jagged strips, and the windows, clouded with grime, revealed nothing inside. The place felt abandoned, a relic of forgotten times—but Adam knew better.“This is the place?” Adam asked, scanning the eerie exterior.Stacey nodded, pulling out a folded sketch from her coat pocket. She smoothed it out, revealing a rough but intricate drawing of an amulet shaped like a coiled serpent biting its tail, with strange runes carved into its body. At the center of the amulet, a single black gem sat ominously, gleaming as if alive.Adam’s gaze lingered on the sketch. “This is the cursed idol.”Stacey nodded grimly. “Yes”Adam gritted his teeth. The memory of his previous battle haunted him. He had lost most of his powers, and with the next war on the horizon, he knew he needed every advantage. This amulet could
Rise Of The Supreme General CHAPTER 35
The old man said nothing, his jaw tightening.Adam took a step closer, his presence looming. “Listen. We’re not here to waste time. You’ve seen the cursed idol, haven’t you? Tell me what you know, and we’ll leave without any trouble.”For a moment, the old man seemed to consider his options. His gaze flickered between Adam and Stacey, and it became clear he wasn’t dealing with amateurs. Finally, he sighed in defeat.“Fine,” the old man muttered. “A man came through here a few days ago. He had the idol with him.”Adam’s eyes darkened. “What did he look like?”The old man rubbed his wrinkled hands together, as if trying to ward off a chill. “Tall. Wore a hood, but I caught a glimpse of his face. Scar running down his cheek, snake tattoo on his neck.”Adam’s jaw clenched. He knew exactly who the old man was describing.“Viper,” Adam muttered under his breath. One of the high-ranking enforcers of the Dead Skulls, a dangerous cult tied to the darkest forces in the underworld.Stacey shot A

Before Brenda could even finish her scream, Adam’s hand struck her face with brutal force.The slap silenced her instantly. Blood sprayed from her mouth as several teeth were knocked loose, scattering across the floor. Brenda spun on her heel before collapsing heavily to the ground, the impact reverberating through the room. She clutched her face, groaning in agony, unable to get up for a long time.Gasps of shock filled the hall.Everyone who didn’t know Adam was frozen in disbelief. They had always seen him as a spineless cripple, someone who endured humiliation without retaliation. The image they had of him was now shattered beyond repair.The sight of him overpowering the Armand family’s bodyguards with ease and ruthlessly disfiguring Wendy had already left them stunned, but this? This was unimaginable. Adam wasn’t just retaliating; he was merciless.Even the guards who had previously grabbed him now hesitated, their confidence shaken.Brenda had suffered the most humiliation. Her

Wendy's body hit the ground hard after flying a shocking six feet through the air. A few of her bloodied teeth scattered across the polished floor, a stark and chilling sight. Her face, now swollen and disfigured, bore the unmistakable imprint of Adam’s wrath. She blinked dazedly, her eyes unfocused, as she feebly tried to lift herself off the ground. Each attempt ended with her collapsing back down, unable to summon the strength to stand.Brenda was the first to recover from the shock of what had just happened. Her face twisted with panic as she rushed to her daughter’s side, kneeling beside her trembling form. “Wendy! How are you feeling? Say something!”Wendy winced, blood dripping from the corner of her mouth as she managed to rasp out, “Kill him... Mom, I want him dead!”Her voice was weak, but the venom in her tone was unmistakable. Tears streamed down her face as she clutched at her mother’s arm. “Mom, it hurts... It hurts so much. You have to avenge me.”Brenda’s heart ached a

At that moment, Adam’s heart felt as if it had been torn to shreds. Every word Tessa had spoken earlier replayed in his mind like a haunting echo, each syllable cutting deeper than the last. It was as though a thousand needles were stabbing him simultaneously, each one a sharp reminder of his perceived failures.Samuel, eager to capitalize on the situation, wasted no time. “Ashford, bring the divorce papers immediately,” he ordered with smug satisfaction.Within minutes, Ashford returned with the papers. The sound of the pen scratching against the document as Tessa signed felt like nails on a chalkboard to Adam. He watched her hands move gracefully, signing her name with an unsettling decisiveness. She didn’t hesitate. She didn’t falter. And when she passed the papers to him, her face betrayed nothing of the storm raging inside her.“I’ll ask you one last time,” Adam said, his voice thick with emotion. “Are you sure you won’t regret this?” His eyes searched hers desperately, hoping fo

"Even if you refuse, I have a hundred ways to deal with you," Gerald retorted, his voice dripping with venom. His face was flushed red, veins bulging on his forehead as he glared at Adam, who stood unperturbed before him.Adam’s lips curved into a slight smirk. “Doesn’t matter. You still have to do it.”“In that case,” Gerald sneered, his tone turning more menacing, “you can try me.”Adam met his glare with disdainful calmness, his tone cutting through the tense atmosphere like a knife. “Go ahead. I’d like to see how far you can go.”Gerald’s fury boiled over, and his fists clenched tightly. Just as he was about to lash out, Samuel stepped in, placing a firm hand on Gerald’s shoulder. “Let me handle this,” Samuel said, his tone measured but authoritative. He turned to Adam, his expression a mix of pity and condescension. “Adam, listen. If you agree to the divorce, I’ll personally put in some good words for you in front of Mr. Tristan. Maybe, just maybe, he’ll spare you for my sake.”A

Adam scoffed, his expression full of disdain. "My legs might be broken, but that doesn’t mean some stray like you can push me around." Samuel’s face darkened instantly. His fists clenched, and a dangerous aura radiated from his body. His killing intent was palpable, sending a shiver down the spines of those nearby. "You’re dead!" he snarled, his eyes burning with fury. Just as Samuel was about to make his move, Tessa hurriedly stepped forward, blocking his path. Her heart pounded in fear as she pleaded, "Mr. Samuel, please let him go… for my sake." Samuel turned his sharp gaze on her, his anger shifting toward disbelief. "You two are already divorced! Don’t tell me you still care about this piece of trash?" His voice was laced with irritation. Tessa shook her head rapidly, her expression flustered. "Of course not," she denied. However, a flicker of hesitation flashed in her eyes, betraying her emotions. "But… we were married, after all. And he once saved my life. I can’t just igno

"I endured everything you people threw my way because of Tessa," Adam said coldly. "But now that we’re divorced, I have nothing to do with the Armand family anymore. I don’t owe you anything, and I certainly don’t have to endure your abuse any longer." His sharp gaze swept over the room, silencing anyone who dared to speak. "What happened to Wendy and her mother is just a warning," Adam continued, his voice steady and threatening. "If any of you dare to mess with me again, I promise your fate will be far worse than theirs." Gerald's face turned red with fury, but beneath his rage, a flicker of fear betrayed him. He clenched his fists, his voice trembling with a mix of terror and indignation. "Adam, stop being so arrogant! You’re nothing but a cripple now. After leaving the Armand family, where else can you go? Back to the streets? At first, I considered sparing you some money, but now? Not a single dime!" Adam smirked, unimpressed. Henry, standing beside Gerald, sneered. "Adam, en
