CHAPTER 505
The two men in front of the bikers froze, eyes wide, hands trembling around their guns.“Wh-who are you?” one stammered. “Are… are you with the Karishin family?”Rain stepped forward, calm and commanding, and his presence alone silenced the street.“No,” he said sharply. “This young master is not from the Karishin family. Step aside. Now.”The men exchanged confused glances, unable to process his words.“W-wait!” the taller one shouted. “We were sent by the Griffin family! You can’t just—”Before he could finish, Rain moved.One precise strike to the man’s side sent him sprawling.The other stepped in, trying to argue, but Rain’s clean, hard hit slammed him down beside his companion.Tedmond watched from the backseat, a faint smirk tugging at his lips. His captors were falling before they could react.“Step aside,” Rain repeated, voice calm but sharp as steel. “Now, or you’ll regret it.”Groaning, bruised, the two finally scrambled out of the way with their hands raised.Rain signale
CHAPTER 504
Thomas sat down on the chair in front of a printer, sorting through papers and stacking them neatly.He had summarized everything he could and was getting ready to print it for Tedmond so he could read it later.Then, his phone started ringing.He frowned, glancing at the screen. He tilted his head, curiosity flickering across his face. ‘Who could be calling me?’Picking up the phone, he glanced at the caller ID, and it flashed: Rain.Thomas’s eyes widened. Rain. Rain was the leader of the guards he had personally asked to watch over Tedmond.The one man he trusted to handle things if anything happened.He quickly pressed the call button.“Rain? What’s going on?” he asked, a tinge of surprise in his voice.The man’s voice came through. “Sir… it’s the young master. He’s been attacked… and kidnapped.”Thomas froze, his mind catching up. “Kidnapped?!”“We had no idea he would be taken, sir,” Rain continued hurriedly. “We… we didn’t intervene in time. We weren’t sure if he wanted us to
CHAPTER 503
Rushing back to the living room, Kyle grabbed the remote and switched off the TV, as if that could erase any sign of him being home. Then he sprinted up the stairs as fast as he could with one working arm.His chest tightened, his heart hammering in his chest, the sling bouncing with every step.Reaching his bedroom, he slammed the door, locked it, and shoved the lock again to make sure it clicked. His arms trembled as he grabbed his phone. He didn’t wait to think; he knew Gerald had been there to teach him a lesson, even if it was his son who had kidnapped Kyle first.Kyle dialed a number immediately.*****Tedmond yawned, the sound stretching lazily as he descended the stairs, still in his pajamas. One hand rubbed at his messy hair, trying to shake off the last remnants of sleep. His feet padded softly against the wooden steps, careful not to wake anyone else in the house.By the time he reached the kitchen, he was fully upright, though his eyes remained half-lidded. He poured
CHAPTER 502
Gerald knew that name. He had heard it several times in the family, but his son had nothing to do with them. There was no one he was close to, and now, he had kidnapped one of them.The whole situation made no sense. There was no way Otis would kidnap someone without a reason. Something must have driven him to do it, but since Otis hadn’t woken up yet, Gerald couldn’t know why.“Are you sure the person he kidnapped is Kyle Karishin?” he asked, eyes dark as he turned fully toward Harold.Without waiting for a confirmation, he continued. “Are you sure it was Kyle and not Tedmond?”Harold didn’t flinch. He shook his head. “I checked. It wasn’t Tedmond. It was Kyle.”He didn’t look offended that Gerald had immediately assumed it might be Tedmond. He didn’t care at all.‘It would have been better if the person kidnapped was Tedmond,’ Harold thought, frowning. ‘It would save us most of the stress.’Gerald scoffed, a bitter breath escaping.“So, because Max and Kyle aren’t friends anymore
CHAPTER 501
There was a pause. Tedmond waited for her to say something; after all, she had been the one who wanted to talk and had been mad at him, but nothing came out.Silence filled the space. After a few minutes, her voice reached him, far too serious for her age.“You’re… the biggest doofus in the whole wide world, and I can’t believe I have to share a house with you!”Tedmond froze, blinking at the door.‘The biggest doofus in the whole wide world…’He opened his mouth, but no words came. He hadn’t expected her to deliver an insult with that much confidence.Bianca, clearly pleased, crossed her little arms behind the door and huffed.“Do you get it now?!”Even though she was mad at him, nothing about the insult bothered Tedmond.If anything… he almost wanted to laugh.“Yes,” he said, nodding even though she couldn’t see him. “I get it.”“Good,” she shot back.“I’m a doofus,” he added calmly.Silence again.“You’re weird,” she muttered. “Who agrees to something like that so easily?”Tedmond
CHAPTER 500
“No, accepting this… being part of it, that’s enough for me. The only thing I want,” she paused, leaning back slightly and resting her hands on the table, “is to be given something later. You’re a Washington… that won’t be hard to find.”Tedmond’s eyes narrowed just a little as he watched her.Something later.He wondered what that meant.Was she planning to ask for something big? Something troublesome?With her confidence, she didn’t seem like the type to settle for something small. And the way she said You’re a Washington made him even more curious.What was she going to demand?Nella caught the look in his eyes and smirked.“If you’re thinking of asking me what it is,” she said lightly, “don’t bother. I’m not telling you, even if you ask.”Tedmond exhaled through his nose, half-annoyed, half-curious.“Fine,” he muttered. “Then when do you want to start?”“When do you think I should start officially?” Nella asked, leaning forward, interested.Tedmond shifted his gaze to Neil. “When
