Before they entered the wedding venue, the extended family in Springvale town was talking about the General's wedding. They marveled at the lavish wedding. It was only when Sergio arrived that their focus changed. They immediately looked at Sergio with a condescending look. They immediately approached Sergio, who was there. As they walked towards Sergio, they couldn't help but laugh. Sergio clucked in annoyance. Before hearing their taunts, he already knew what these people would discuss.One of the men began to speak. "How is your son? I want to see him."The other wealthy family waved their hands. "He won't come. He is a disgrace for being beaten up by a man who is not famous at all. I don't even know his name. It's embarrassing.""If I'm not mistaken, his name is Carson.""Oh, yes. Now I remember. Carson is Alison's husband and part of the Baker family. A man who was considered trash by his own family. And Joel was beaten by such a lowly person. How low can the Ramos family go?"T
Robert vomited blood, Marlo couldn't believe what she was seeing, and cousin Carson wet his pants in fear. They were so shocked that it drove them crazy. The person they had always considered trash and useless was an extraordinary general with great influence. They shook their heads in denial."No, no, no. This must be nonsense. There's no way he's a general." Marlo was sure that Carson was playing a role. "There's no way such trash is a general." Robert immediately nodded. He realized what he saw was real, but he didn't want to accept any of this. If this was the truth, they would be in big trouble. The general could quickly destroy their family, and Robert would not want that to happen."That's right. You're right. That bastard must be just pretending to be a general. There's no way a scum like him is a general. That bastard should die. He should go to hell for playing this family." He agreed with Marlo.As confused and frightened as they were, this made them look for any excuse, e
"What are you guys doing? I'm not leaving here." Marlo pushed away the people who were trying to evict him. He didn't accept being kicked out. He felt his pride was gone if he was kicked out of there. "Carson, I'm your uncle. There's no way you can't be compassionate to me." Outside the venue, Marlo and her family kept trying to get back in. He wanted to apologize and ask for Carson's forgiveness. Unfortunately, Carson ignored them. He was already busy with the wedding. Moreover, Carson no longer considers Kenn's family part of his family after their crazy act of killing Carson's mother. "He must be a liar." Marlo shook his head. "There's no way he's a general. Carson must be lying. I'm absolutely sure of it."After not getting a pardon, Marlo immediately doubted that Carson was a general. He looked at her family members one by one. They all nodded, they also thought the same thing."Right, that's impossible. He's just a useless piece of trash. Even dogs are better than him. How cou
Marlo and Robert smiled. This was what they wanted to hear. Marlo and Robert immediately believed it because the person giving this information was someone in a high position of authority. This information could be trusted. There was no way that person would lie. "I told you, he must be a fraud. It turns out he wasn't a general." Marlo couldn't hide his feelings of joy. He was pleased. "I told you that he couldn't become a general in just a few months. Carson is not a genius who can achieve that.""He's just useless trash in our family," Robert added.Marlo and Robert looked at each other and smiled again. After that, their faces turned severe. Their expressions were grim, remembering what Carson had done to them. Remembering all that, their blood boiled, their heads were hot, and they were furious, upset, and vengeful all mixed together. "We can't just let him go free." Marlo's gaze was sharp, as if she wanted to stab the person in front of her. His heart was beating very fast. Mar
"Are you sure? Don't deceive me." Nora didn't want to get false information. Primarily when it was related to Carson, who was a general. Carson could destroy their family if he wanted to. Nora didn't want to take that crazy risk. "I'm not lying. This is valid information because I got it from my acquaintance in the military. There's no way he's lying."Nora felt suspicious at first, but after being explained. She immediately looked grim. Nora gave off a terrifying aura, her head hot. Her gaze was very sharp, as if she wanted to kill anyone in front of her. Even the cell phone she was holding cracked because she was holding it too tightly. Vivian and George who saw their grandmother looked very angry, both of them were confused. None of them dared to ask questions because when she was angry, Nora was sometimes crazy. She could channel her anger inappropriately. People who had nothing to do with the problem were sometimes affected by her anger. Nora started the conversation. "That ba
Alison and Carson returned home. Alison was still smiling. She was so happy today. Today is the happiest day of her life. She still can't believe what happened earlier. A very luxurious wedding party and herself being made the queen earlier. This felt like a dream in broad daylight.Alison pinched her hands and cheeks several times to determine whether this was a dream or not. The result was still the same: It was not a dream. Alison's hands were shaking."Thank you for today." Alison felt she had to say this. Carson put his arm around Alison and stroked her head gently. "Alice, you are the person I love the most. I've done all this for you, and this is my reward for what you've done. You are a good wife and a wonderful mother." Carson complimented Alison sweetly. Alice's face turned red from being praised. She hugged Carson very tightly, and she also kissed Carson lovingly. Both of them enjoyed it, but they got a look from Charlotte. At that moment, they stopped kissing and immedia
"Okay, then we'll do it." Paula immediately agreed to Nora's request without asking Carson or Alison's opinion first. Hearing that, Carson immediately turned his head. He didn't expect Paula to make such a unilateral decision. Carson sighed and calmed himself down. He would focus on Nora. He snorted. "What kind of nonsense is that? You think I believe everything you say after everything you've done." Paula immediately turned around and pushed Carson's body backward. "What are you doing? Shut up! As a son-in-law, you should have obeyed what I said. We've been forgiven. Do you want to make this family hostile again?" Paula complained. She looked at Carson with a cold stare. After that, Paula turned around again. She opened her eyes repeatedly. "I'm sorry, Mom. I'm really sorry. I'll teach him how to be a good son-in-law." Paula was very afraid of making Nora angry and withdrawing the company they had just given. Having just gained it, they would lose it again. Paula wouldn't let it
Paula urged Alison to contact Nora because they had received an invitation letter to attend the bidding tomorrow. Paula was impatient that the family would get back all their milk. She already had a smile on her face at the thought of them living in their new villa."Hurry up!" Paula urged."One moment, ma'am."Alison took out her cell phone. She searched for her grandmother's name. She found Nora's cell phone number. She pressed the call button. One second after Alison made the call. Nora answered the call."Did you get it?" Nora asked directly to the core. She didn't ask for news first or any other pleasantries. All Nora could think about was the qualification letter to come to the bidding event tomorrow. "How did it go? Why are you silent?" Nora complained.Alison gulped. She was a little shaken that her family would get their due again. "Yes, we already got it. Do we go there, or do you want to get it here yourself?"Alison innocently offered a choice. Across the way, they were ch
Just as Carson was about to start gathering with his family, he received a call from Darwis. He walked out again. I also got the news that everything was fine. All locations had been checked once again and were completely safe. That made him relieved."Thank you. You'v worked very hard," Carson said to Darwis on his cell phone."You too. Without you, we wouldn't have been able to get all this done. As always, you're amazing, we really depend on you," Darwis said. Carson nodded. "That's how teamwork works. We have to complement each other," he said."Right." A few seconds of silence. Darwis took a breath and exhaled. "Happy New Year, General," he said. Carson smiled. "Happy new year."Carson spent New Year's Eve at home with his little family. He felt warm because it was full of joy. In the living room, twinkling lights adorned the Christmas tree that still stood majestically in the corner, even though the new year was almost here. By the way, now, the curtains were open, reveal
Carson was silent for a moment after hearing the news from Darwis. Shock and anxiety were clearly visible on his face. "The elite neighborhood? Where is my family?" his voice was full of confusion, and anxiety immediately spread to him. He looked at his subordinates with questioning eyes. Carson even swallowed. "We have to leave immediately. We have no more time. Let's go," he ordered firmly, without hesitation.His troops looked at each other. Still confused by what had happened, their brains were not working properly because today, too many things had happened. They worked so hard that their bodies and minds were exhausted.Carson, who saw that, patted their shoulders one by one. "Come on, let's go. We have to stop the bomb or there will be more casualties," he said.His troops nodded with a slightly blank stare. But they kept walking and, after a few seconds, finally understood what was happening.His troops quickly launched a focused search operation, dividing into groups to explo
Inside the room that was once dominated by the criminals, the atmosphere was now different. Carson stood upright in front of a large desk, where maps and important information were scattered. Around him, his subordinates, including his loyal men, stood with thoughtful expressions. They had just conquered the enemy base, and although the atmosphere was a little calmer, a feeling of anxiety and vigilance still coursed through them."Tonight is New Year's Eve, finally," said one of the soldiers with a relieved smile. "After everything that happened, it feels like we've accomplished everything. We can rest now.""Right," added another. "They've been defeated, we've won. It's over. Everything is calmer."Carson looked at them all with a serious gaze, but no smile appeared on his face. When he finally opened his mouth, his voice sounded calm yet full of a deep burden. All gazes were fixed on Carson."It's not over yet," Carson said, furrowing his brow.Everyone fell silent at those words. T
Behind the dark screen, the criminals sat with evil smiles etched on their faces. They felt no anxiety or fear of the consequences of what they were doing. Instead, they celebrated the chaos they had created as if this was a game they were enjoying. In a cramped room filled with computer screens and communication devices, one of them stood confidently, looking at his colleagues, who were laughing uproariously.They were a bunch of crazy people who loved chaos. They were doing all this for fun, especially since Carson had captured their leader. No one could restrain them, which made them even crazier and freer."You see," the man said in a low voice, full of confidence, "no matter how hard they try, they'll never be fast enough to stop us. No matter how many they send, we're already ahead of the game. They will only play in the game we make."Across the table, his partner nodded with a wide smile, his eyes twinkling. "This is very fun indeed. If they die, we'll bring more dead with us.
The atmosphere in the town of Springvale was tense, but as time passed, most citizens still went about their routines with little knowledge of what was really going on behind the scenes. They were deliberately not allowed to know what was happening.A few residents gathered in a café not far from the city center, enjoying a cup of morning coffee. Some glanced outside, noting the number of military vehicles and troops that seemed to be getting ready. A large truck full of equipment was also seen stopped in front of the government building. Although most of them didn't know exactly what was going on, the rumbling sound was quite obvious and made them wonder."Look at that. It looks like something big is happening," said one resident, a man in his 40s sitting by the window. He observed the soldiers passing by in full uniform, his hand holding a coffee cup. Do you think this has something to do with New Year's Eve preparations?"A young woman sitting at the table next to him looked out wi
Arriving at the car, he threw his luggage into the side seat roughly, then started the engine with a shudder. When he stepped on the gas pedal, the roaring sound of the engine seemed to represent the anger that was welling up inside him. On the way to his house, his head continued to be filled with images of the fallen victims, the faces he could not save.On the way, Carson grabbed his cell phone and dialed Darwis' contact number. A long ringing sound was heard before Darwis finally picked it up."Darwis," Carson's voice sounded hoarse, trying to hold back his emotions. "This isn't the end for us. I promise I'll handle this better."Darwis was silent for a few seconds. He sensed Carson's disappointment. "I understand, General. We won't let our guard down again either. Forgive us for being negligent." He felt disappointed in himself. "If only we had moved quickly, maybe the bomb wouldn't have exploded, and there wouldn't have been any casualties. All of this is my fault.""You can't b
Cason sat in his chair, his eyes not leaving the large screen in front of him. Although the atmosphere in the headquarters was getting tense, he felt that something was making him more anxious than ever. Slowly, he pulled out his cell phone from his pants pocket, staring at the name on the screen, Alison. He was worried about his wife's state.He took a deep breath before pressing the call button as if gathering the strength to hear the voice he had missed for so long because he was busy with this stressful situation. The phone rang for a few seconds, and finally, Alison's soft voice was heard on the other end."Hello, darling," Alison's soothing voice seemed to sweep away some of his worries.Carson sat up and leaned his back against the chair, trying to calm himself down. "Hello, sweetheart. Are you all right?" Carson said, his voice soft despite the anxiety in his heart."I'm fine." Alison was a little shocked that Carson would ask such a question just now. "Are you okay? If there'
After securing the enemy leader, Cason and his subordinates took him to a dark and isolated room nearby, where the interrogation would take place. The room was lit only by a small chandelier hanging in the center, giving it a tense feel. In one corner, there was a cold metal table, and the chair facing it was empty as if awaiting their role in this interrogation. The leader of the enemy, his face was pale. He was beginning to fear what Carson would do to him.The man, now bound and looking more tired than ever, sat with his body slightly bent. His eyes were red, and he was breathing heavily. In front of him, Cason stood with a sharp gaze. Darwis, along with several other team members, stood by the door, guarding against any interruptions during the interrogation process.Cason walked slowly around the table, his steps heavy and full of a chilling, murderous aura. He didn't say a word, just looked at the enemy leader, who seemed to be getting more and more panicked at Carson's aura."W
Cason faced the two men with his abilities. It turned out that his two opponents were stronger, and again, the two were very compact and very difficult to defeat. Without hesitation, he moved quickly, utilizing his speed and agility to dodge their attacks. His steps were measured while his two opponents worked together, trying to surround him from two directions.The big man moved first, trying to pin Cason down with big, fast steps. However, Cason was ready. He stepped back one step, nimbly dodging the man's outstretched hand. In an instant, he seized the opening, darting forward and blocking the movement of the small man who was trying to get close. Cason's movements were so fast that the little man could only be stunned for a moment, giving Cason room to go further.However, the big man did not give up. He turned around and attacked with a sharp movement, trying to hit with full force. Cason dodged quickly, just a step away from the attack. Cason's every move was meticulous, making
