" Did your special crush jilt you so bad you couldn't stop yourself from running back to the one you considered unworthy?"

Jessica's eyes darkened slightly, crossing her legs against each other elegantly.

" Don't flatter yourself."

" Oh, I am not." Theo laughed dryly, a smirk playing above his lips as he leaned closer to Jessica, inquiring, his voice barely audible, " I just need to know, what happened to your special crush? I thought you don't want to see me again."

His taunts towards Jessica allowed irritation to bubbled up in her, ready to erupt and overflow!

She squinted her gaze at Theo, studying the man who she had know for more than a decade..

Theo had been her friend during medical college, having shared many moments together. As a matter of fact, most students in the medical college back then would think they were a couple until Theo quitted in the college. Being a pompous heir, he decided to pursue something much more interesting than medicine, thus he focused on his fa

    " I have a witness already. Now, tell me where Jessica is." The bar attendant's face fell, unable to believe what he saw in Winter's hands.Was the conversation recorded? Realization dawned on the bar attendant, knowing there was no way he could do anything stupid, otherwise he would be implicated. " What are you waiting for? Is there anything else you need to say?" Winter tilted her head, arching one of her brows as she demanded. Reluctantly, the bar attendant shook his head, replying, "No, it's fine. I will tell you what you want to know, sir." Previously, he had thought he could outsmart Winter, but now it was a mere illusion. " Thank you." Winter threw a harmless but warning smile to the bar attendant, who led the way immediately...She could see how he swallowed down nervously, and her face became cold automatically." Can you please describe how this person looks? I can help you check the CCTV footage for any sign of her." Winter nodded, agreeing, and she quickly

    " We can work together. You will get Emily Thompson to be yours, and I will make James Donovan mine!" Jessica declared, narrowing her gaze at Theo's whose pupils dilated as if been exposed of a particular secret. " Wait!" He raised his hand, a frown pulling at his face and demanded, " How did you know Emily Thompson is my target?" The question made Jessica's wee smile to deepen, lowering her well trimmed eyebrows. " How did I know?" She puffed her chest arrogantly, twitching her lips. " Let's just say I have my ways." Theo immediately became restless, scoffing as he shook his head, giving Jessica a look filled with disbelief. " If you know, then you know. However, we are not on the same lane and I can't work with someone like you. We both know how cunning and selfish you can be, so why would I team up with a fox?" He had known Jessica for years and could even predict her next move when together. To him, the woman was so selfish, she cared less about others interests, only her

    Theo's hands paused as his voice darkened. " Who is James Donovan? And why do you say he is not ordinary?" Jessica shrugged, scoffing, at the darkened voice of Theo. She could comprehend Theo knows nothing about James Donovan and believed the latter to be nothing but a useless live in son in law. Well, it was not a surprise for her since she had known James to be a low profile person until recently about his enemies involvement..The woman started stroking her chin carefully, reflecting calmly. Why would she break the surprise? Better to let them all wage war on each other and know who is going to make it out. Since Theo is too stupid to comprehend anything, she decided to keep it shut and act so innocently. To her, it would be fun to watch Theo go against James Donovan without him knowing the truth. "Don't bother. You can find on your own and I don't know much about James Donovan. All I am aiming for is to get him under me! James Donovan has to be my man!" Immediately, Theo'

    Winter's expression hardened, her fists clenching on their own! Something was written on her face, stating that she would expose Jessica and make the latter pay for putting her in this situation! Shortly after, she quietly left the bar without raising any suspicion and planning to prepare for the party she had heard about. Maybe, this might be the best chance for her to achieve her goal of ruining Jessica's plan.... Two hours later, the sun had dipped below the horizon, darkening the city's view, and the dim glow of the moon had taken over.At this moment, various prominent figures could be seen around a particular six-star hotel, stepping and greeting one another gracefully. Their demure movements and interactions reflected their elegance, in addition to their radiant outfits, which gleamed with wealth and influence. Indeed, tonight was going to be a long and memorable one. Reporters roamed outside the entrance, wanting to interview anyone they could get through since it

    Before he could proceed again, a tall and thin figure stepped into the hall in a casual yet formal outfit, casting a calm glance across the assembled people.James maintained a straight stance, walking forward, and unbothered about the kind of gazes he was receiving from the people in the hall. How could he care about those who showered him with unfriendly looks, when he was above them and could even buy their wealth all?The resources and wealth of the god of war are not to be underestimated!Since LaGrine had informed him about the party and his plans, he deemed it fit to attend the party. He had to show up, although not invited, but there are various ways for him to get an invite.Besides, it was necessary to see what the party was mainly all about, and maybe something interesting would come up. At the same time, a waiter went passed him, carrying a tray of iced drinks. James caught sight of the waiter and extended his hand to grab hold of one drink. Then, he decided to take a

    The bodyguard trembled with the weight of Leonard's words and knew this was no time to joke or disagree with orders. Immediately, the guard nodded obediently and took his leave without wasting more time! Once the guard and the rest of him were out of the party, barely inaudible whispers started flying across the people in the hall, all passing on information to the other.It was unknown who had spread the information but it created a sense of confusion among the audience. The main topic of discussion at the party was the disappearance of Marcus, the renowned chief editor of Sunshine Media House. No one could quite understand the situation, but the reporters who overheard the details were intrigued.In no time, rumors about Marcus had occupied the atmosphere of the hall. During this moment, James sitting slightly behind the people, lowered his eyes indifferently as soon as President Richard and Chairman Cole were done waving at him. He had refrained from coming close to gree

    " James Donovan! Aren't you happy to see me again?! Did I surpass your expectations?! Oh, I am sure you must be flabbergasted! So what do you have to say to me? You never know, this might be your chance to bail yourself.."Victor shouted firmly, demanding from James with a taunting voice. He couldn’t stop the happiness that bubbled in him, knowing James wouldn’t be able to escape from his humiliation tonight, and this would go a long way to make him so happy. A puzzling expression crossed James’ face as his eyes squinted in response to the multitude of flashing lights surrounding him. Despite this, his composure remained unchanged - he simply tapped his fingers rhythmically against the table in front of him.‘’ Do you want me to talk, Victor?’’ He let out a snort filled with mockery. ‘’ I don’t think you are ready to hear what I have to say.’’ He knew what Victor was up to, but why would he let him win? It was better to hit the bull straight in the eye without thinking twice, espe

    " What do you think James Donovan? I didn't invite you to the party and you must bear whatever you will witness and go through!" The man had carefully planned how he was going to take down James and he was sure nothing would hinder his plans! At this time, the only thing that could please him was James's fall and disgrace, which he viewed as a great achievement and something to boast about! What fueled his resentment more was seeing Victor, his precious son, thrown to the ground by James' subordinate. Indeed, the nerve of them! How could he stand by and watch after that?! Never! " And what will be your gain?" James questioned, facing Leonard and standing beside Victor. The latter had pulled himself up from the tiled ground, dusting himself. " My gain?" Leonard made a throaty chuckle, full of unknown meaning and he quickly snapped his fingers. " I will show you what my gain is." Just then, a familiar lady was dragged forward and pushed mercilessly to the tiled ground,

    The drive back to the Radcliffe estate was quiet.The weight of recent events lingered in the air, but for the first time in months, there was a sense of closure.James glanced at Emily in the passenger seat, her head resting against the window as she watched the trees blur past.In the backseat, Sarah was fast asleep, her small face finally free of worry.“This feels strange,” Emily said softly, breaking the silence.James glanced at her. “What does?”“Coming home. No Syndicate. No immediate danger. Just... life waiting for us.”James nodded, his grip on the wheel tightening slightly.“It’s what we’ve been fighting for.”Emily turned to him, a small smile on her lips.“I just hope we remember how to live it.”Later that evening, the team gathered at the estate’s main hall for what felt like the first peaceful meal in years.The atmosphere was warm, but there was an underlying current of finality.Kael raised his glass, smirking.“So, this is it, huh? No more bunkers, no more ambushes

    Winter’s fingers flew over her keyboard, her screen filled with data streams and encrypted files.The room was dimly lit, the glow of monitors casting sharp shadows on her focused expression.James stood behind her, his arms crossed, tension radiating from him.“You’re sure about this?” James asked, his voice low but firm.Winter nodded, not taking her eyes off the screen.“Positive. These files weren’t just buried—they were hidden in layers of false leads. Whoever did this wanted to make sure no one found them, not even Zhao.”Kael leaned against the doorway, arms crossed.“And yet, here we are. What exactly are we looking at?”Winter tapped a key, bringing up a series of interconnected names, companies, and shell organizations.“The Syndicate isn’t just regrouping—they’re rebranding. New names, new players, same game.”James’s jaw tightened. “Led by who?”“That’s the kicker,” Winter said, spinning her chair to face them.“These files mention leadership figures Zhao didn’t even know

    The black SUV pulled into the secluded driveway of the secure facility, surrounded by towering walls and layers of surveillance.James stepped out first, scanning the area with a soldier’s precision.Behind him, Emily and Sarah emerged, their expressions a mix of weariness and unease.“This isn’t a home,” Emily said quietly, her arms crossed as she glanced at the cold, gray building.James turned to her, his voice calm but firm.“It’s not supposed to be. It’s safe.”Emily sighed, the weight of the past few days evident in her posture.“Safe, James, but not sustainable. We can’t keep uprooting our lives like this.”James met her gaze.“It’s temporary. Just until we figure out our next move.”Inside, the facility was stark but functional. Sarah clung to Emily’s hand, her eyes darting around the unfamiliar surroundings.“Is this where we’re going to live now?” Sarah asked softly, her voice tinged with worry.Emily knelt to her daughter’s level, brushing a strand of hair from her face.“J

    The strike team moved with precision, navigating the dense jungle that surrounded the suspected Shadow Council hideout.Winter’s voice came through the comms, calm but focused.“You’re two clicks out,” she said.“The perimeter scans show minimal activity. If they’re there, they’re keeping a low profile.”James adjusted his headset, his eyes scanning the terrain.“Understood. Stay on the sensors. If anything moves, I want to know.”Kael, walking just behind him, let out a low whistle.“Too quiet. I don’t like it.”James nodded.“Neither do I.”The team reached the entrance to the bunker, its steel doors partially concealed by overgrown vines.Kael moved forward, placing a charge on the lock.“Ready to breach,” he said.James gave a quick nod.“Do it.”The explosion was sharp and contained, the doors swinging open to reveal a dimly lit corridor. The team entered cautiously, their weapons raised.Winter’s voice came through again.“You’re in. Be careful—this layout is identical to some o

    Winter’s workstation hummed with activity as lines of code scrolled across her screen.She leaned forward, her brow furrowed in concentration.On a nearby table lay the charred piece of paper Kael had recovered from The Widow’s lair.It was encoded, a complex cipher that had taken days to crack.Kael leaned against the wall, watching her work.“You’ve been at this for hours, Winter. Got anything?”Winter sighed, her fingers pausing over the keyboard.“Almost. Whoever wrote this wanted to make sure it stayed hidden. But they underestimated me.”James entered the room, his expression sharp.“What’s the status?”Winter pointed to the screen.“I’ve almost got it. The code is... odd. It’s deliberate, but there’s something about it that feels personal, like whoever wrote it wanted us to find it.”Kael raised an eyebrow.“Personal? From the Syndicate? Doesn’t exactly sound like their style.”Winter’s screen dinged softly, and she sat back, a faint smile of triumph crossing her face.“Got it.

    The boardroom was uncomfortably quiet as Emily entered, her heels clicking against the polished floor.The tension in the air was palpable, the kind of silence that only came before a storm.She set her tablet down on the conference table and looked around at the gathered board members.Many avoided her gaze, their expressions carefully neutral.Others met her eyes with a mix of defiance and unease.“Thank you all for coming,” Emily began, her tone sharp but calm.“I’m aware there have been... concerns about the direction of this company in the wake of recent events.”A man at the far end of the table, Greg Thornton, cleared his throat. He was one of the company’s longest-serving board members and had always been vocal about his disapproval of Emily’s leadership.“Concerns is putting it mildly, Mrs. Radcliffe. Some of us are wondering if your methods are jeopardizing this company’s future.”Emily raised an eyebrow.“Jeopardizing? Or exposing inconvenient truths?”The room shifted unea

    The interrogation room was colder than usual, or perhaps it just felt that way.Zhao sat at the table, handcuffed, his posture relaxed despite the weight of his situation.His smirk was firmly in place, as if he were the one holding all the cards.James entered, his footsteps deliberate and echoing in the silence.He placed a folder on the table, its contents thick with evidence of Zhao’s crimes.Without sitting, he leaned on the table, his eyes locked on Zhao.“This is your last chance,” James said, his tone sharp.“Who’s still out there? Who’s pulling the strings now that you’re finished?”Zhao chuckled softly, shaking his head.“Finished? My dear Radcliffe, you give yourself too much credit. You’ve barely scratched the surface.”James’s jaw tightened, but his voice remained steady.“You’re alone. The Syndicate is in ruins. You have nothing left.”Zhao leaned forward slightly, his smirk widening.“Nothing left? Oh, James. You’ve only pruned the tree, not uprooted it. The roots are s

    The headquarters was quieter than usual, but the weight of what they’d accomplished hung heavy in the air.James stood in the main briefing room, surrounded by his team, while Winter sat at her station, typing furiously.Screens around her displayed reams of data—records, account numbers, and connections all tied to the Syndicate.Kael leaned against the wall, arms crossed.“That’s it, then? We’re done?”Winter didn’t look up from her screen.“Not yet. The Widow’s fall gave us access to a treasure trove of intel, but there’s a lot to sort through. Sleeper agents, hidden funds, collaborators—we need to root out every last one.”James nodded, his expression grim.“Every loose end tied up. No one slips through.”Kael raised an eyebrow.“You think that’s even possible? The Syndicate had its claws in everything.”James’s voice was steady. “We don’t stop until it’s done.”In another part of the building, Emily stood in front of a mirror, adjusting her blazer.She was minutes away from addre
