2024-10-31 18:51:13Louis Kindsor stood silently in the living room of the luxurious villa he shared with his wife, Vivian Howard.
His face was a mask of calm, but his eyes betrayed a storm of emotions.
In his hand, he held a tablet displaying surveillance footage that would change everything.
As Vivian entered the room, her smile faltered at the sight of Louis's serious expression.
"What's wrong, dear?" she asked, her voice tinged with false sweetness.
Without a word, Louis turned the tablet towards her.
The footage showed Vivian entering a hotel with another man, their body language leaving little doubt about their intentions.
Vivian's eyes widened, then narrowed. Instead of shame or remorse, her face twisted with anger.
"You had someone follow me?" she hissed.
Louis shook his head slowly, in disappointment.
"That's all you have to say? No explanation, no apology?"
Vivian laughed dismissively, as if she didn’t care the least that Louis had caught her in an affair.
"Why should I apologize? This is perfect timing, actually."
She strode to a nearby drawer and pulled out a document, slapping it down on the coffee table.
"I want a divorce."
The words hit Louis like a physical blow.
He stared at the divorce agreement, unable to comprehend how things had come to this.
"Why?" he asked softly.
He had hoped Vivian would explain and say it was all fake.
Vivian rolled her eyes.
"Oh, please. You brought it upon yourself! Since our marriage has already shown signs of cracks, isn’t divorce only natural?"
“So it’s my fault?!”
Louis widened his eyes in disbelief, unable to accept that Vivian showed no remorse and instead blamed him.
"What happened to the girl who helped me all those years ago?" he whispered.
Louis's mind raced back to that day over a decade ago.
He had been on the streets of Apple City, penniless and alone.
A sweet little girl had shared her food with him, dropping a small toy as she left.
That toy had become his most cherished possession, a reminder of kindness in his darkest hour.
How could someone change so dramatically over a mere decade?
“What girl? Oh, forget it! Just sign it, will you?”
Vivian’s cold and impatient voice interrupted his thought.
"Are you sure a divorce is what you want?"
Coming back to his senses, Louis said with a look of utter disappointment.
"I've given you everything. I've supported you, helped you build your career, taken care of your life..."
"You? Supported me?” Vivian scoffed.
“Please. I'm the most successful female CEO in Apple City because of my own hard work. You've just been living off me, Louis. Face it, you're nothing compared to what I've become."
Each word was a dagger to Louis's heart.
“You really think your achievements are solely due to your own efforts and abilities?”
Louis asked, his eyes filled with utter pain and despair.
If it weren’t for him providing Vivian with seed money and arranging for support for her business, her family would never have risen from below-average status, and she certainly wouldn’t have achieved her present success in just a few short years.
“Then what else?”
Vivan sneered, her head held up high, like a queen.
“If you think so, then I have nothing to say.”
Looking at his arrogant and conceited wife, Louis totally lost his appetite to protest.
"Oh, please stop acting like I owe you. You’ve been eating and drinking for free at my place for years—it’s time for that to end. If you still have any dignity left, sign the papers and get out, Louis," Vivian demanded. "It's over."
Without another word, Louis picked up a pen and quickly signed his name.
As he handed the papers back to Vivian, he looked directly into Vivian's eyes and said coldly.
"As you wish, it’s over. I hope you don't come to regret this decision, Vivian."
Vivian smirked.
"The only thing I regret is not doing this sooner."
Louis stood, his tall frame seeming to fill the room.
For a moment, Vivian caught a glimpse of something in his eyes – a hint of the power and authority he usually kept hidden.
But it was gone in an instant, replaced by a look of profound disappointment.
"Remember your words, then."
With that said, Louis turned and walked out of the villa without looking back.
His demeanor cold and completely different from before.
“You ungrateful bastard, watch your attitude!”
Vivian fumed, stamping her feet.
But Louis didn’t look back once.
It was over.
There was nothing worth holding onto anymore.
As he stepped outside, Louis was greeted by an unexpected sight.
A fleet of luxury cars lined the driveway, their sleek bodies gleaming in the afternoon sun.
Not a single of them was worth less than millions of dollars.
A man in an impeccable suit stepped forward, bowing deeply.
"Mr. Kindsor," the man said respectfully.
"We've been waiting for you."
Louis nodded, his demeanor shifting subtly.
Gone was the defeated husband; in his place stood a man accustomed to command.
As he approached the lead car, his phone rang.
As Louis slid into the back seat of the most luxurious car, he answered the call.
The voice on the other end would set in motion events that would shake Vivian's world to its core.

"Welcome back, sir," the crisp voice of Terminator X came through the phone. "It's time for you to return to your rightful place. You’ve been held back for too long."Louis leaned back in the plush leather seat, a fleeting look of desolation crossed his face. "You’re right. I’ve wasted too much time.”He then quickly adjusted his demeanor and ordered. “Forget it. Let’s talk about the current situation.""As you command, sir," Terminator X replied, “the 300 billion assets you previously invested globally have now multiplied several times, reaching 2 trillion. I’ve been overseeing them for you.” “Also, your 300 domestic companies are showing steady performance improvements.”“Now that you’re back, I can finally hand everything over to you, sound and safe.”Louis chuckled.He could feel Terminator X’s eagerness to turn in the burden, as if the weight of these assets was suffocating him. “No rush, my man, can’t you spare me a few days for relaxing? I just divorced, you know?”“I apo

And that girl was Vivian Howard.Back then, she had just graduated and was struggling to make ends meet.And that was when he decided to let go of everything and silently stand by her side.He never told Vivian about the events from over a decade ago, but he never forgot it either.He simply chose to support Vivian quietly.When she wanted to start a company, he provided the initial funding; when she wanted to expand it, he offered resources and connections from behind.However, alas, it turned out that the story didn’t end well for him.Louis gazed out the window at the city passing by. Apple City, where his journey had begun, where he had fallen in love with a girl who no longer existed. This time, when he left the villa, he didn’t take the doll with him because it was no longer necessary.It was the end of their relationship, after all.Now, it would be the stage for his return to power.Meanwhile, inside the villa, Vivian's phone rang. It was her mother, Victoria Howard."Is it

Vivian Howard paced the bedroom, the small doll clutched in her hand. Her mind raced with possibilities, a flicker of doubt crossing her face."Could Juliet and Louis be having affair behind my back?" She wondered aloud, her voice barely a whisper.But as quickly as the thought arose, she dismissed it with a shake of her head."No, that's impossible."She remembered she had never even introduced them. As for Juliet, she was the eldest daughter of the Beaumon Family—she had good looks, perfect figure, and a prestigious background.Although the Beaumon Clan wasn’t one of the four major Families, they were still an established name in Apple City.So how could Juliet possibly be interested in a lowlife like Louis?It was clear that Louis must have obtained the doll through improper means, just like some sleazy men who liked stealing women’s underwear.“Yuk! Truly disgusting!”Vivian tossed the doll back into the box, her disgust for Louis growing. She'd ask Juliet about it later, just

What the fuck?!Vivian couldn't believe what she heard. She couldn’t help but burst out laughing."Your company? Do you know that Apex Z Group is valued at 50 billion, and ranks 1st in Apple City? I bet a loser like you have no idea!” Vivian sneered loudly.“Ben, did you hear that? Louis thinks he owns Apex Z Group! That's funny!"Ben laughed too. "Wow, Louis. You're crazier than I thought. What's next? Are you going to say you're the king of Apple City?"Vivian looked disgusted. "I can't believe I was married to someone so stupid and boastful. You can't even tell what's real and what's not.""Maybe we should simply call security," Ben suggested playfully. "They'd love to meet the 'owner' of Apex Z Group. Want to give them a good laugh, Vivian?"Louis didn't say anything. He didn't look upset or angry. Their words didn't bother him at all.Louis moved to walk past Vivian and Ben, his face a mask of indifference. His didn’t want to waste another second on these two arrogant foo

Louis stood still, shocked. He just realized something big. The small doll he thought was Vivian's wasn't hers at all. This meant the kind girl who helped him years ago wasn't Vivian! All this time, he had been wrong!Louis felt many things at once - surprise, sadness, but also a bit relieved. He had spent years helping Vivian, thinking he was paying back her kindness. Now he knew it was all a mistake."What's wrong, Louis? Finally seeing how pathetic you are?" Seeing how quiet Louis was, Vivian said meanly.She thought he was finally embarrassed because she had caught him lying.This made her even angrier and more disgusted.Louis barely heard her. He was too busy thinking about what this all meant for his life.However, Vivian kept talking, and getting louder. "Why are you silent now? Weren’t you good at making up stories about knowing important people? Why not continue the play and give us a good show?"Vivian said more aggressively, her eyes filled with increased disdain.

Seeing how calm and collected Louis was, as if he was confident of victory, Vivian felt a surge of anger.She couldn’t wait to see how Louis would conjure up one million dollars for her right away.If he couldn’t, she swore she would make sure to drown him in her scorn!Louis calmly took out his phone and dialed a number. "Terminator X," he said, "I need you to send one million to the entrance of Apex Z Group now."Vivian's eyes got big. Seriously?!That Terminator X?! How could Louis be talking to him?“As you command, Sir. I’ill have John Wales, the General Manager of Apex Z Group, get the money ready.”Terminator X said on the phone.Louis ended the call and looked at Vivian. "Wait a few minutes," he said, not caring much.“Louis, how could your shame know no boundary?”Vivian's eyes widened in disbelief and mockery. "Do you even know who Terminator X is? Well, let me tell you, in case you have no idea.”“Terminator X is the richest man in the world! Do you know what that mean

“Mr Wales?”Louis confirmed. “Yes, Sir. Just call me John.”It was John Wales, the General Manager of Apex Z Group. Louis nodded at him.John Wales wiped the sweat from his face with a cloth. "Sir, I apologize once again. If I had known you arrived early, I would have come over sooner. I wouldn’t have kept you waiting at the entrance for so long. Please forgive me!"John Wales took a deep breath and said respectfully, with a hint of desperation.The person in front of him, Louis Kindsor, was the boss of his superior, Terminator X.Simply put, both his life and career depended on this man.If he messed up and Louis was unhappy, his job would surely be at risk.And that would be a true disaster.“No need to panic. It’s not your fault, John. I was the one who decided to come earlier midway.”Louis reassured.John had expected Louis, as a superior, to be very strict.But to his surprise, Louis was quite easy to talk to and very understanding.This really relieved him.“Thanks, Sir, for

“Would you like a tour of the Apex Z Group facilities while you’re here?”Louis shook his head. “Not today. I have other matters to attend to.”What was more urgent now was to determine who the real owner of the doll was.If Vivian’s doll was in the attic, that meant the person who saved him years ago wasn’t Vivian at all, but someone else.Who was it, then?He needed to find that girl as soon as possible.“At your command, Sir. I’m always here to await your arrival.”John said with a bow.He then indicated that he would see Louis off, but Louis politely declined.As Louis turned to leave, the entrance door swung open and a young woman rushed in.She wore a blue and white business outfit, her figure stunning and her beauty exceptional.Her long hair was pulled up in a high ponytail, looking vibrant and bouncy.She walked briskly, almost bumping into Louis. “Oh! I’m so sorry!” she gasped, looking up at Louis with wide eyes.“It’s f—fine,” Louis said curtly and hesitantly, stepping as

Louis looked at him, his curiosity piqued despite the overwhelming weight of the Heart's pull."What did you find?"Terminator X flipped open the journal and showed them the new discovery:a page filled with cryptic symbols and a detailed map.His finger traced the ancient text, his voice steady as he spoke."It’s a council of former Eternal leaders. They call themselves The Remnants," he said, his tone heavy with meaning."They were once part of the Eternals but broke away, exiled for opposing the corruption within their ranks. They’ve gone underground, and according to your mother’s notes, they guard something... something powerful."Louis frowned, his brow furrowing."What are they guarding?"Terminator X's finger moved to the next part of the journal, where a symbol resembling an ancient mirror was sketched."The Mirror of Truth. It’s said to reveal the true intentions of any wielder of the Heart."Louis’s pulse quickened at the mention of the Mirror. It sounded like the key to ev

The journey back to Apple City was silent.Terminator X led the way, ever vigilant, while Juliet stayed close to Louis, her gaze never leaving his broken form.They had defeated the Eternals, but at what cost?Louis’s body, still scarred from the Heart's energy, was a reminder of the toll it had taken on him.But he was alive.And that, in itself, was something.As they entered Apple City, the streets felt quieter than ever.The Eternals had been dealt a massive blow, but they both knew, deep down, that their victory was far from final.The organization still lurked in the shadows, its leaders scattered but not defeated.Inside a dark, abandoned room far from the city’s reach, an Eternal leader stood, watching the reports unfold on the screen.His face was a mask of cold fury, his fingers curling into fists as he stared at the image of Louis’s collapse."Louis... you think you've won?" The leader’s voice was low, filled with venom."This is just the beginning. You will pay for what yo

Louis stood at the center of the Citadel, his hands trembling as they hovered over the Heart, its pulse growing louder in his mind.The energy swirled, dark and bright, a contradiction of pure power.He felt it, all of it, coursing through him like wildfire."Louis," Juliet’s voice broke through his focus, sharp and desperate."You have to stop! This will destroy you."He turned to her, his face pale, eyes wide with the fevered intensity of the Heart’s influence."I have to finish it," he whispered, his breath shallow."The Eternals... they’ll keep coming. We can’t stop them unless I do this."Juliet stepped closer, her voice trembling."You’ll die if you do this. Please, Louis!"He didn't answer.The Heart pulsed once more, and the energy exploded outward in a surge of power."NO!"

Embrace your destiny.”Louis’s breath came in shallow gasps as he struggled to contain the torrent of emotions swirling inside him.Embrace my destiny...He shook his head, the weight of his anger threatening to crush him.“Your destiny,” The Seer continued, stepping closer.“Is to rule, to bring the Eternals back to their rightful place. Your mother was weak. You, Louis, have the strength to finish what she started. You can be the one to lead them.”Louis’s vision blurred with fury, his muscles coiling as he prepared to unleash his powers.They killed her. They destroyed everything. I will destroy them all.“NO!” Juliet’s voice cut through the tension.She stepped in front of Louis, her expression fierce.“You’re not like them, Louis. You don’t have to give in.”But the anger inside him was suffocat

“Focus, Louis,” Terminator X said, snapping him out of his thoughts.“We’ve got work to do.”As they approached the entrance, a surge of energy ran through Louis’s veins.His eyes glowed briefly as he sensed something shifting within the Citadel.There was a presence here, something ancient and malevolent.The gates of the Citadel groaned open as they neared, seemingly of their own accord.The darkened hallway beyond was lined with shadows that seemed to reach for them, pulling at their minds.“This place... it feels wrong,” Juliet whispered, her voice barely audible.Louis felt it too. The air was thick, oppressive.The Citadel was designed to break them down, to exploit their fears.They had no choice but to face it.“Stay close,” Louis warned, his voice steady despite the unease settling in his chest.They walked into the heart of the Citadel, every step echoing in the silent hall.The stone walls seemed to close in on them as the passage narrowed, and a low hum began to vibrate th

Juliet sighed, her shoulders slumping in frustration.“You’re both missing the point. This isn’t about proving anything. It’s about survival. Louis, if you keep pushing yourself like this, there won’t be anything left of you to fight with.”Before Louis could respond, a sharp beep echoed through the room.Juliet pulled out a small device from her pocket—a communicator linked to their hidden network.“What is it?” Terminator X asked, moving toward her.Juliet frowned as she read the message.“It’s from The Seer.”Louis’s breath caught, his heart pounding as Juliet read the message aloud.“‘Come to the Shadow Citadel, Louis. Face your destiny. Or run, and let your mother’s death mean nothing.’” Juliet’s voice wavered as she finished.Silence fell over the room, the weight of the challenge pressing down on all of them.Louis closed his eyes, his jaw tightening.“It’s a trap.”“Of course, it’s a trap,” Juliet snapped.“And walking into it would be suicide.”“Maybe,” Louis said, his voice

Louis opened his eyes, and said," I won't do anything mom." He shook his head, and exhaled a deep breath."I won't let you go inside me, Seer." Louis snapped at her.Suddenly, he saw these visions provide critical clues about the true location of the Eternals’ central command—a hidden fortress known as the Shadow Citadel. The Heart of the Eternals pulsed faintly beneath his shirt, each throb sending waves of doubt through his already fragile mind.“It’s the Shadow Citadel,” Louis muttered, lifting his gaze. His voice was hoarse, his eyes distant.“The visions keep showing me... it’s there. Everything leads back to that fortress.”Juliet stood by the window, arms crossed, her jaw tight.“And you trust these visions?” she snapped.“How do you know they’re not just another way for The Seer to manipulate you?”Louis’s hands clenched into fists.“I don’t. But it’s all we have.”“No,” Juliet countered, turning to face him fully.“What we have is a choice. You’re letting this Heart consume

Juliet’s voice, distant but clear, cut through the storm of his thoughts."Louis, please. Don’t let her control you. This is what she wants."But Louis couldn’t hear her.All he could hear was the voice of the Heart, the whisper of revenge.End them, Louis. End your family.He took a step forward, his mind clouded by the overwhelming desire for vengeance.His teeth gritted together as the markings on his skin blazed with a bright, dangerous light.The Seer stepped back, watching with an eerie calmness as Louis’s power grew.“This is what you want, isn’t it?” she whispered, her words seductive, coaxing him closer.“Revenge. The Heart will give you everything you need. Power, control... your family’s destruction.”Louis’s eyes flickered with a dark, violent determination.They deserve this, he thought. They deserve to burn.Juliet, still chained and watching from the corner of the room, screamed, her voice filled with desperation.“Louis, please, don’t do this. Don’t become like them. Y

Louis’s heart pounded in his chest as the weight of her words sank in.His mother... the woman who had always been his guiding light, the one person he trusted unconditionally... was dead.Because of his own family.“You’re lying,” Louis growled, his voice strained as he stepped forward, glaring at The Seer.“My father—my family—they couldn’t have...”The Seer smirked, taking a step closer.“You think your father was a noble man? You think your family cared for anything but their own gain?They saw your mother as a threat, Louis.She was the one thing that stood between them and total control over the Eternals.They couldn’t allow her to remain alive.”Louis’s hands clenched into fists, his mind reeling.He remembered the last time he’d spoken to his father—how the man had claimed everything was for the family’s good.That his mother had chosen to leave them behind, to make sacrifices for their future.It was all a lie.A carefully crafted lie to hide their treachery.His own blood, h
