The previous party was very successful. Everyone who came to the party felt pleased. They were happy because the party was extraordinary and the souvenir was an expensive ring. Many people would always discuss the party in the next few months.Carson was happy about it, but he didn't look at it because his life wasn't just there. Carson is a military man and a general. He also offended others several times, which will be a problem in the future.He was now very far away from the town of Springvale. Going there took a day by car—that was without stopping. Of course, if he stopped a few times, it could take longer. Since Carson had prepared everything, he only needed one day of travel.It's just that when he was there, he immediately faced several famous people from two families. They were not alone but with several other people. Carson's face was grave. He didn't like the people in front of him right now.Carson stood in the center of the crowd, facing a few people from the known famou
Jonathan's face was solemn, his jaw clenched, and sweat dripping down his temples. His eyes were determined and angry, as if they could burn everything before them. He took a deep breath, trying to control himself despite his racing heart. Beside him, Antoni, although looking frightened, felt Jonathan's spirit flow into him. A new strength filled his chest, giving him the courage he had never had.As Jonathan began to threaten Carson, Antoni felt his heart pounding, but he stood his ground. Antoni felt his spirits rise when Carson, the notorious squad leader, looked at them with a sardonic smile."You guys are fearless. It's like you don't know who you're dealing with?" Carson said, his voice calm but containing an implicit threat.People like Jonathan were rare amid a siege. He still showed courage. Most people only pretend to be brave when, in reality, they are scared. Carson observed Jonathan, recognizing his courage. He rarely found people who were so courageous like this.Around
Carson stood straight, looking at Jonathan and Antoni with a faint smile. "I'm a member of Ken's family," he said, his tone calm despite the anger and hatred in his voice.Jonathan frowned, his eyes wide, while Antoni gaped, his mouth slightly open. Their disbelief was apparent, as if the world had suddenly stopped. It turned out that Carson was a member of Ken's family—the family that had been destroyed. "How can you stay alive? Even though I'm sure that Ken's family has all been killed except for a few sycophants who are quite profitable for us," asked Jonathan, his voice shaking.Carson looked very angry and upset at Jonathan and Antoni. Now, they both understood why Carson could be like this to them. It turned out that he was part of Ken's broken family. Ken was a respected name, but that was in the past. Now, the family was gone, and not even many people recognized the family.It was deliberately destroyed by some prominent families who didn't like them."Tell me. Who destroyed
Elsewhere, Carson stood with mixed feelings. He was full of joy and sadness. In front of him, the building that was once his home was now only rubble, with crumbling walls, destroyed roofs, and memories that were also immersed in the rubble.he stared at the ruins with a heavy heart. The beautiful memories of his childhood were vivid: the joyful laughter of playing in the courtyard, the tantalizing aroma of her mother's cooking, and the loving voice of her father. Now, all that was gone, replaced by silence and sadness.A sense of loss enveloped Carson, tightening his chest. Each piece of debris seemed to represent a shattered hope, a vanished dream. He remembered how this house had been a refuge where Ken's family stood firm. Now, there was only emptiness haunting him.With one step forward, Carson reached out as if to touch the remnants of memories. Tears welled up in his eyes, but he refrained from crying. "I will restore the honor of this family," he whispered, determined to use t
On the deck of the gleaming yacht, a joyful atmosphere prevailed. Soft waves lapped against the hull while festive decorations glittered in the sunlight. A group of people gathered in a corner, laughter and conversation flowing freely."Everything is almost done. We just need to get a few more things ready, and the party can get underway," said one of them, a broad smile gracing his face."Good. This is how it should be. We paid a lot of experts to prepare all this. If they can't do it quickly, then they should be punished," said another, frowning as he recalled old memories.The others nodded. "That's right. We pay dearly if we finish quickly. That's unforgivable," said a third person, his eyes sparkling excitedly. The atmosphere came alive, and everyone prepared to celebrate an unforgettable moment.The next day, the sun rose brightly, casting golden rays over the ocean. The deck of the ship was transformed into a grand stage, decorated with colorful balloons and fresh flowers. Soft
The voice resonated strongly. Full of intimidation, some people even got goosebumps. Alberto, the head of Alberto's family, also gulped at the voice, but as the head of the family, he must not show it. He had to look calm and confident."Are you ready? Come out, show yourself," he pleaded, his voice trembling between confidence and high courage.There was no answer. That gave the old man confidence. He thought that the voice was just a threat from a strongman. He smiled broadly, filled with a deep sense of confidence. He even dared to threaten whoever the voice was."If you don't show up, there will be consequences for you! You won't be able to leave here!" he declared, his voice growing louder though doubts were creeping inwardly. Around him, the other family members looked at each other, feeling the tension building up, creating an almost tangible aura of intimidation.The wind suddenly picked up as the tension intensified, bringing a bone-chilling chill. From the darkness, a tall,
The party held by Alberto's family fell apart, leaving a trail of fear and confusion in the guests' hearts. The head of Alberto's family is now lying in hospital due to a minor heart attack he suffered as the situation became increasingly uncontrollable.Intensive care became an urgent necessity to save him from a more severe threat. The incident tarnished the reputation of the once-respected Alberto family, who were now seen as failed hosts for being unable to protect their guests. Amid the chaos, the lights suddenly went out, and panic ensued. Some tried to escape by jumping into the sea, but they survived. However, several were hospitalized due to injuries from the accident.This event became the talk of the four other prominent families. They were gathered at a restaurant to discuss their ongoing business matters. After serious discussions, they began to eat and talk about different things, including the Alberto family party incident. William, the head of the family, sat calmly a
The man explained the possibility that the person terrorizing the Alberto family was someone from the military. It was something that the four great families couldn’t fight against. He also mentioned that the person might not be an ordinary soldier—perhaps a high-ranking officer, given the boldness of coming alone. Of course, the four families panicked when they heard this explanation. They looked at the man with hopeful eyes, waiting for his response. After listening to his words, one sighed, "But how can we fight them?" The man nodded, understanding their concern. "Don't worry. I will help you. I have many connections in the military, and my rank is high. Rest assured, gentlemen, because I can get the support we need to defeat that man," he said, his voice firm and reassuring. The faces of the four great families gradually shifted, and relieved smiles began to appear. Hope replaced anxiety. They whispered among themselves, planning the following steps as if a heavy burden ha
