On a sunny afternoon, Gob stood in front of the office with confidence. With the sun shining around him, he waited for the arrival of Ethan, who he hoped would be able to help him. It wasn't long before a luxury car pulled up in front of him. The broad smile on her face reflected the confidence that Ethan, who had just gotten out of the vehicle, would solve her problem."You are nothing compared to Mr. Ethan," Gob said in a dismissive tone.He was confident that Ethan could handle anything with ease. However, his confidence seemed to be driven more by hope than reality. Gob did not know that Ethan had suffered a broken bone from Carson and had to undergo intensive care. He wouldn't dare fight Carson again.As Ethan approached, the atmosphere grew tense. With a sharp gaze and an aura of anger, Ethan stepped firmly toward them. Gob looked at Ethan's closeness with satisfaction, convinced that the solution to his problem was at hand."You're in trouble, young man," Gob said in a challeng
Gob frowned and fidgeted. He shook his head apprehensively. "No, don't do it!" he shouted frantically. "I haven't done anything wrong. Why do I have to put up with all this?"He couldn't accept that he had to be killed. Even though he was completely innocent. This confused him. Gob rejected all of this. He was distraught and angry, but his courage to fight Ethan was not there. The deep fear made him helpless, even though anger burned inside him.Ethan only smiled a small smile, a smile filled with certainty and a hint of indifference. "You have offended Carson, and as such, you must accept the consequences. In addition, you have also dragged me into a problem of your own making. This is your fault," Ethan explained in a firm tone.Gob looked even more confused and frustrated. "Why, who does Carson think he is? Why are you so afraid of him? He's just an ordinary guy. Why should you be afraid of him?" Gob asked in a tone full of curiosity and incomprehension.Ethan looked at Gob with wo
"This can't be," Paula whispered to herself, looking at Carson with a doubtful gaze. "Anyway, I can't be fooled by the tricks Carson does."She nodded slowly, trying to calm herself with fragile confidence. In her mind, Paula tried hard to reject the reality she was facing. Although the outcome of this situation was clearly favorable for her and the company, she constantly felt torn between recognition and rejection. Carson, whom she had taken for granted, turned out to be able to overcome this problem in a very extraordinary way.Paula's face looked tense, and her mind was in turmoil. When she looked at Carson, who stood there calmly, the skill and courage he showed became even harder to ignore. "No way," she muttered again, trying to filter out her inner voice that whispered with shame and regret. "I can't admit this."Resentment and confusion mixed within her. With a strong desire to fight reality, Paula continued to look for reasons that could justify her views and ignore Carson's
The events that happened to their family earlier were shocking. Charlotte was kidnapped, the Unity Ventures company's huge debts were in urgent need of repayment, and Paula was physically abused several times. All of this was very shocking, but fortunately, Carson managed to solve all these problems quite easily.He managed to find Charlotte and capture her kidnapper, solve the company's debt problem quickly, and even give Ethan a magnificent villa as a token of gratitude."That's amazing," Paula thought to herself.However, inside her, Paula could not openly admit how great Carson was. She felt her pride and refused to express such praise directly in front of her son-in-law. "I guess Carson is just doing what he's supposed to do," Paula thought, trying to mask her admiration. After all, no one needs to be over-praised." Paula decided to be neutral and not give Carson any direct praise, even though she recognised in her heart how impressive all the achievements were."I don't think Et
After the messengers left, the atmosphere in the living room became quiet, filled with surprise and relief. Paula, who was still holding the documents tremblingly, suddenly felt a heart full of mixed feelings. Her gaze fell on Alison, who was examining the documents with enthusiasm.Paula couldn't hold back her emotions anymore. Emotionally, she approached Alison and hugged her tightly. The shock and happiness left Paula almost speechless."My son," Paula said in a trembling voice, "all of this... it really happened. We really did get the villa, and the company's debt has been paid off. We're going to live happily, finally."Alison returned her mother's hug gently, her eyes teary. "Mom, I can't believe this is really happening. It's all incredible."Paula looked at Alison with eyes full of emotion. "We've been through a lot of hard things, but now it all feels like a dream come true. I feel so grateful."With a loving hug, Paula felt an abundance of warmth and happiness. She looked up
They all looked mesmerised by the villa's luxury, but Vivian and George's faces showed a less-than-pleasant expression. Their dissatisfaction was obvious, even though they were only at the front of the villa, which already looked very luxurious and grand. They imagined how the rest of the villa would look, and both of them hoped that it would not be as luxurious as this front part."If it's just this, we can have it too," Vivian said sarcastically.Shortly after, two men dressed in black approached them. With a respectful gesture, they greeted Alison and Carson. They were the same people who had delivered the ownership letter for the villa - Ethan's men."This is just the front," one of the men explained as he waved his hand towards the magnificent room around them. "The inside is equally stunning. Behind the villa is a large garden and two small houses that can be used by families who want to stay overnight. This villa is probably ten times the size of your previous home."As he spok
Vivian looked at Alison sarcastically, feeling as if Alison didn't understand the potential profit from selling the villa. "It would be a shame if you didn't take advantage of this opportunity," Vivian said, her gaze full of forced admiration. "A villa of this size is bound to be very expensive in terms of maintenance. If I were you, I would consider selling it. I have an acquaintance who can help sell this villa at a very good price. You can make a significant profit and buy a house that better suits your needs at a much cheaper price."Vivian looked as if Alison was making a big mistake by refusing the offer to sell the villa. Her attitude clearly showed that she felt Alison was unaware of the valuable opportunity that lay ahead. She was just persuading Alison with a trick of her own.Paula, hearing Vivian's suggestion, looked surprised. "What is the price range of this villa?" she asked curiously.Vivian replied confidently, "It's probably around 50 million dollars."Paula's expres
Vivian and George watched in fascination as the robotic workers moved actively around the villa, and bright lights illuminated the entire room. Vivian tried pressing several buttons on the villa's smart home system, trying to give commands, but it seemed that all her efforts were in vain."Siri, turn off all the lights," Vivian said. She tried to give commands like Carson did, but they all failed her. Nothing happened. The lights were still on. Even the home system didn't provide any response, not even a small one.Vivian's face turned red, and she looked even more embarrassed. "What is this? Why isn't anything working?" she asked in a frustrated tone, trying to hide her embarrassment. She scratched her head. "Siri, turn off the lights." Again, she tried, but to no avail.George, beside her, looked annoyed and confused too. "Vivian, something seems to be wrong. I can't control anything," she said, feeling desperate."Me too."Vivian wrung her hands, clearly upset and distressed. She t
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
