Once a rising star in the Air Force, Gilbert Hayes’ life took a sharp turn after he was dismissed for past mistakes. Two years ago, when his girlfriend, Vivienne Astor, was battling lupus, Gilbert made a heartbreaking choice: he donated his kidney, hoping the powerful Astor family would help his ailing mother in return. Though they kept their promises, Gilbert’s mother didn’t survive, leaving him with nothing but a broken heart. Allowed to marry Vivienne out of his genuine love for her, Gilbert now faces relentless rejection from his in-laws. Once warmly welcomed, he’s now seen as unworthy of their family—dismissed for his humble background, despite his sacrifice. But Gilbert’s transformation from a pathetic loser to a potent legend begins when he becomes the commander of a private legion and the heir to the powerful Hayes family. Now, the tables are turning. Those who once looked down on him will soon be begging for mercy.

The butler, without reluctance, swiftly handed Gilbert the key fob. Gilbert’s fingers tightened around it, his excitement bubbling over as he eyed the sleek Aston Martin. He was eager, almost energetic, as he stepped toward the car.Just as he reached for the door handle, Mr. Hoffman called out, a hint of concern in his voice. “Can you drive, commander Hayes?” His gaze was steady, brows slightly furrowed.Gilbert paused, throwing a playful glance over his shoulder. ''Drive? I used to drive my ex-wife to work every day. So yeah, I think I’ve got this,'' he responded with a smirk and the right dose of sarcasm.Mr. Hoffman chuckled, his tension easing, while Gilbert slid into the driver’s seat, the thrill of his new life sparking in his eyes. Quickly pressing the key fob, the car engine roared to life, its powerful hum sending a rush of adrenaline through him. Gilbert chuckled heartily as he revved the engine hard, feeling the surge of control and satisfaction. This wasn’t just any car—

Gilbert sighed deeply, his head hung low as painful memories flooded his mind. He thought of the years of suffering—his mother’s illness, his sister’s struggles, and his own helplessness. And now, the revelation that he was the heir to the Hayes family. It all felt too overwhelming, and before he could stop himself, tears began to flow freely down his cheeks.Seeing the sudden breakdown, Mr. Hoffman stood up immediately and moved toward Gilbert, placing a firm hand on his shoulder. “Hey, it’s alright,” he reassured him. He sat down beside him, handing Gilbert a handkerchief, his actions deliberate, knowing this wasn’t the time for words. After a few moments, Mr. Hoffman opened up, ''We did everything we could to find you, Gilbert. It took us years because you were nearly impossible to track. It wasn’t until recently that we finally started getting real answers.''Gilbert wiped his face, his breathing still shaky. ''Why now? After all this time?''Mr. Hoffman exhaled deeply, looking a

The moment Gilbert stepped out of the Astor mansion, disbelief hit him like a sledgehammer. How could they? Their treatment of him was nothing short of cruel, like a nightmare he never thought he’d endure.They had used him. Vivienne and her family acted like Gilbert's sacrifices meant nothing. He gave everything to Vivienne, and what did he get in return? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. This was how the rich treated the poor, wasn’t it? Like trash. Like he didn’t even matter. The more he thought about it, the more his regret and anger deepened. He had sacrificed so much for her, and now he was left with nothing but the bitter taste of betrayal.As the thought seeped in more, Gilbert's panic grew. Leaving the house meant more than just leaving his wife. It meant losing everything as he had no shelter, no backup plan. Where would he go? Once Megan was discharged, where would they live? The weight of it all pressed down on him. He had no answers, no clue what his next move should be. Thi

Gilbert was taken aback, muttering to himself as he cursed his hasty decision. He didn’t seem too worried, though, because he still remembered the information on the note. Following the instructions wouldn’t be a problem.“Is that all you came to ask, Mr. Hayes?” the cashier asked, noticing his silence.“Yes, that’s all,” Gilbert replied, his mind drifting elsewhere.After receiving confirmation, he returns to Megan’s ward, still in shock. It felt surreal, almost like a dream. Ms. Reed’s words echoed in his mind—the envelope would change his life. Did she mean paying off Megan’s bill?Yet, expressing his relief proved difficult. The burden of his sister’s medical bills had been lifted, despite all his failed attempts to raise the money.As soon as Gilbert entered the ward, he excitedly shared the news with Megan. “They cleared your bill! You’re going to be okay!”Her eyes lit up. “Really? That’s amazing!” The joy in her expression matched his own as they celebrated the unexpected turn

Gilbert took it, confusion settling in. What could possibly be inside? He felt a mix of anticipation and disappointment, wishing she could do more. As he stared at the envelope, he couldn’t help but wonder if this was just another empty gesture.“Make sure you follow through with what’s in that envelope,” Callie said softly, her eyes locking onto his for a moment before she gave a small nod, almost as if she knew something he didn’t.Gilbert sighed, still holding the envelope. "I…. I….wait, what exactly is this?"Callie just smiled while looking in haste. “You’ll find out, okay?”The next moment, she turned and headed toward her sleek Volkswagen, parked nearby.As she pulled away, Gilbert, feeling both spooked and curious, opened the envelope. Inside was a short note with the address of a popular five-star hotel in New York City and instructions to meet Mr. Hoffman, the CEO of Hoffman Corp.Gilbert stared at the note, his heart racing. For a moment, he didn’t know what to think. The n

Gilbert's expression was almost unreadable as Adrian walked off to join his elite friends. He was struck with intense regret, a harsh reminder of his wife’s family’s clear opposition to him.His plan to get support from his father-in-law for his sister’s medical bills had failed, leaving Gilbert more frustrated than ever.Before he could collect his thoughts, Vivienne appeared with a smug grin. Her eyes fell on the shattered perfume bottle, and she couldn’t resist a cruel laugh."Really, Gilbert?" she scoffed. "Look at this. You’ve finally gotten what you wanted, haven’t you? Asking for help from my father on his birthday of all days—how desperate can you be?”Vivienne glanced at the broken bottle. "And this? No scent left. How long’s it been since he dismissed you? Ten minutes? The cheap perfume you bought couldn’t even last that long.”Disdainfully, she crossed her arms and said, "Honestly, Gilbert, how could you be so pathetic? A cheap gift for my father, hoping to win him over wit

“Sir, are you still there?” The voice on the other end jolted Gilbert back to reality. He hurriedly picked up the phone from the floor, his hands shaking. He was overwhelmed by a mix of shock and disbelief.“Uh, excuse me... sorry, are you... Gilbert Hayes?” The voice hesitated, sounding uncertain. “I believe there’s been a mistake.”“A mistake?” Gilbert struggled to keep his anger in check as he held the cracked phone to his ear, the screen flashing erratically. “You think this is a joke?”“Sorry, but Megan Hayes isn’t dead,” the voice clarified. “There’s been a misunderstanding. We have two patients named Megan in our care, and you didn’t provide a surname.”Gilbert’s face tightened, clearly pissed off. “Two Megans? Are you serious?” His chest tightened. “I... I didn’t think of mentioning her last name. Why would I? I thought you’d know!”“It’s protocol, sir. You didn’t introduce yourself or specify her full name.”Gilbert's displeasure was evident as he lashed out, “So, you’re sayi

Early the next morning, Gilbert woke up at his usual time, 8 a.m. After getting ready for work, he sat in the grand living room, waiting for his wife. It was part of his routine to drive her to work before heading to his own job. But today, his mind was elsewhere, filled with thoughts of his sister’s health and how he could help her. As the minutes ticked by, Gilbert’s restlessness grew. He kept glancing at the clock, anxiously waiting for Vivienne to wake up. When she finally stepped into the living room, Gilbert’s relief turned to surprise when he saw Vivienne already dressed and ready to leave. Yet, Gilbert sensed something was off; she didn’t acknowledge his presence, not even a glance in his direction. Concerned, Gilbert said, “Viv, you’re up early. Is everything okay and how was your night?” Silence met his question as Vivienne moved toward the door, making Gilbert spring to his feet and rush after her, calling her name. Just as she reached the door, she stopped abruptly a

As Gilbert watched her walk away, a growing unease settled in his chest. He tried to understand why she was acting this way, but he quickly pushed the thought aside and hurried after her. When he finally caught up with her in their private accommodation in the mansion, his words came before he could think. "Viv, please, wait."Vivienne turned to look at Gilbert more intently, her impatience now getting the best of her. "Listen, Gilbert! What do you even have to say this time? Is it that same lame-ass story about finding a better job? You’ve been repeating that for months, and here we are—two years in, and you’re still stuck in that dead-end job."Disappointed, Gilbert sighed as he tried to explain. "Honey, I know you're upset, but… uh, I’m doing the best I can. I thought you saw that too…"Before he could finish, Vivienne, looking even more infuriated, cut him off. "You heard me, Gilbert! I’m not interested in that, okay?"Gilbert exhaled deeply, his frustration rising. The silence in
