I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0031-At the Summit of Influence Event
Nousa remained silent, offering no response. Twenty-seven years ago, she had agreed to this contractual marriage for the sake of money. But now, that reason no longer held any meaning. It wasn’t money she sought anymore but the chance to be close to the children who had been kept away from her for so long. Despite her dark past, she was still a mother. At fifty years old, burdened by a lifetime of struggles, her heart yearned for nothing more than her children by her side. The door creaked open. The sound of Darren’s firm footsteps filled the room. The young man, tall and confident, carried features that seemed to perfectly blend those of both his parents. He entered to report to his father, but the moment his gaze landed on Nousa, his expression changed drastically. Darren’s eyes softened, and a warm smile spread across his face. “Mom?” Darren’s voice was filled with warmth and surprise. Nousa smiled—a small, delicate smile that held years of longing and gratitu
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0032-But...he is ZANDER!
Hammo responded with a measured smile, as though he had anticipated the question. “Of course, it’s special,” he said, casting a carefully rehearsed glance at Nousa, his expression radiating manufactured warmth. “My wife has always preferred a quieter life away from the public eye. But tonight, she decided to accompany me, and I couldn’t be more proud.” The cameras clicked furiously, capturing the seemingly affectionate moment. Nousa maintained her small, gentle smile while Hammo’s grip on her arm felt cold and controlling. “Madam Nousa, will you be accompanying Mr. Hammo at more events like this in the future?” another reporter asked. In a soft, almost whispery tone, Nousa replied, “We’ll see. I just wanted to support my husband tonight.” Hammo chuckled, his voice low but clear. “My wife always knows the right time to support me. That’s what makes her so special.” Inside the glittering ballroom, Darren’s entrance turned heads. He exuded charm and confidence, as was h
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0033-Mr. Dom, Did You Know? ...
Dom smiled broadly, glancing back and forth between Hammo and Zander before saying, "Hammo, this is Zander. He’s one of my employees at Net TV. But today, he’s helping me as a driver to bring me here.” Hammo turned his gaze to Zander, staring at him intensely before forcing a polite smile. “It's a pleasure to meet you.” Zander returned the smile and extended his hand. “Mr. Hammo, it’s an honor. I’m a big fan of yours. I’m confident you’ll be the future governor of Venua.” Hammo paused for a few seconds, realizing Zander had deliberately made the remark to mask their tense relationship in front of Dom. After a moment of thought, Hammo shook Zander’s hand with a formal smile. “Thank you for your support. I truly appreciate it.” As their handshake ended, Zander shifted his attention to Nousa, who stood beside Hammo. With a warm smile, he stepped a little closer and extended his hand toward her. “Madam Nousa,” he said warmly, “it’s a pleasure to see you’ve returned.” Nousa st
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0034-Mr. Death's Power
In Hammo’s mind, there was no reason for Dom to care about Zander or Joseph. Especially now that the Guezz family had gone bankrupt, and Zander was just a former soldier struggling to make a living. Hammo replied to Dom, “I’m not sure if this is truly a good opportunity or not,” he said, his tone laced with sarcasm. “Lately, my old friends only show up to take advantage of my position.” “Ever since I became a candidate for Venua governor, they’ve suddenly all wanted to reconnect,” Hammo continued. The remark was aimed at Zander, even though Hammo was speaking to Dom. Hammo glanced at Zander briefly, trying to provoke a reaction. But Zander only looked back at him with a calm expression, as if the veiled insult had no effect on him. Deep down, Hammo felt unsettled. However, he knew this wasn’t the time to let his emotions dictate his actions. Hammo took a deep breath. After all, this event was an important opportunity to boost his image as a gubernatorial candidate, and h
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0035-Threatening Zander
Hammo understood that securing Mr. Death’s support could be the key to cementing his position as Venua’s governor. He had already spent considerable time and resources building political alliances, but the threat from his rivals remained significant. If he could win over Mr. Death, it would guarantee an indisputable victory—or so he believed. However, Mr. Death was not someone easily approached. The man was infamous for his secrecy. No one knew what he looked like or even his real name. Those who had worked with Mr. Death knew one thing: his power did not stem from public appearances but from his ability to manipulate the world from the shadows. But the question remained: how could one reach such a man? And more importantly, what could he offer to earn the support of such a powerful and mysterious figure? Dom finally broke the silence, snapping Hammo out of his thoughts. “Perhaps,” Dom said with a faint smile. "But you know, Mr. Death only meets those he deems… valua
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0036-Governor Darlene
Hammo stood motionless, his anger and confusion blending into one overwhelming sensation. Zander remained calm, his expression unchanging, as though savoring the situation. Hammo replayed Zander’s words in his mind. Could it be true that Zander had taken someone else besides Biella? So, who? A name surfaced in his thoughts: Galio. Hammo immediately felt disbelief. Galio was his youngest brother, someone he deeply relied on to protect their family. Galio was renowned as a martial arts expert, with bodyguards trained to handle any threat. Hammo found it impossible to believe that Zander could take Galio away, let alone without significant resistance. Hamm felt his palms grow damp with sweat. Quickly, he called Tony over and whispered, “Go to Galio’s house in Atome. Check if he’s there. I want a report immediately.” Tony nodded silently and promptly left the room. Hammo refocused on Zander, searching for any subtle sign that might reveal the true meaning behind his words. B
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0037-Hidden Contributions
Dom noticed the expressions of shock and confusion clearly written on Hammo and Darren's faces. He also understood that Zander was not the type of person who liked to be honored in public, especially if it could draw attention to his identity. Dom quickly took action, giving a subtle glance to Governor Darlene, signaling him to clarify his statement and behave normally towards Zander. However, before Governor Darlene could respond, Zander spoke first, as if signaling to Governor Darlene to conceal his identity. "Hi, Governor Darlene. It's been a while since we last met. My father misses you," Zander said. Upon hearing this, Hammo and Darren immediately sighed in relief. They thought it made sense— it was very plausible that Governor Darlene respected Zander because of his long-standing relationship with Zander's father-Joseph Guezz. Governor Darlene, realizing his mistake, immediately understood Zander's intention. He regretted almost revealing Zander's important identity a
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0038-The Anger of Drug Lord
Meanwhile, elsewhere, Voss sat in his dimly lit office, a room filled with shadows and the thick smell of tobacco. He had just received a report from his subordinate, who had returned after conducting a thorough investigation. The report shocked him. It turned out that the person who had caused the chaos at his nursing home, killed Galio's men, and abducted Galio was a 27-year-old young man. Voss shook his head, struggling to believe it. "Is it really a young man who did this? I thought this was the work of my enemies, people around my age, about 50 years old." His subordinate, standing in front of the desk, looked confident in the report he had brought. "We've double-checked, Boss. It's true." "He's a young man, 27 years old, and a former war commander." Voss fell silent for a moment, as if digesting the information. After all, he himself was a retired soldier, a former war commander who had now turned into a traitor to his country. As the years passed, Voss had drifte

0051-Zander Also Come
Biella stepped onto the wedding stage with unwavering confidence. The atmosphere turned silent, with only the sound of cameras clicking as reporters rushed to capture the moment. "Isn't this the perfect time for a family photo?" Biella said with a meaningful smile, breaking the silence. Everyone turned to look at her, confused and surprised. Darren tensed. Meanwhile, Nora watched with keen interest, sensing the conflict simmering beneath the façade of the Xanta family's harmony. Biella's gaze shifted to her mother, Madam Nousa, and her father, Hammo, both of whom wore stiff smiles. Then, her eyes swept across the Xanta family, who stood neatly dressed in coordinated outfits. Her smile widened. "No one told me about the family dress code," she said in a soft yet sharp tone. "So, I decided to wear black." The guests began whispering among themselves, while the reporters eagerly snapped photos and jotted down Biella’s words. One reporter, unwilling to miss this heated moment

Darren immediately responded to the host's question with confidence. "Biella and Nora are on good terms now," he said in a reassuring tone. "They're friends, and their relationship has healed. There are no problems between them anymore." Darren glanced at Nora hopefully, as if silently asking for her support in backing up his statement. Nora, despite the doubts in her heart, quickly nodded, giving her approval for the lie they were crafting. "That's right," she replied briefly, maintaining the image they had built.

A staff member accompanying them quickly snapped Nora out of her thoughts. "Ms. Nora, please follow me. We need to get you ready for the show." Nora jolted slightly and forced a small smile. "Of course," she said while glancing at Zander one last time. The man remained unaware of the attention directed at him. Zander was solely focused on sweeping the floor, unaffected by his surroundings. With a heavy heart, Nora followed Darren and the staff into the VIP waiting room. However, her mind kept drifting back to Zander. She tried to stay composed. Darren was busy discussing the show’s script with his management team. Hammo had warned Darren not to make a single mistake. The Xanta Family’s popularity and Hammo’s chances of winning the gubernatorial election depended on the flawless image they presented today. But Nora was barely listening. Her mind was filled with nothing but Zander’s face. On the Talk Show Stage The show started with great enthusiasm. The host gre

0048-That Man Was Zander
Eleven days passed peacefully. There were no major disturbances or threatening incidents. Hammo and Voss, who had previously tried hard to kill Zander, eventually stopped their attempts. They realized that no matter how much they tried, Zander always found a way to survive and fight back. However, Voss had not completely given up. He had decided to kill Zander himself without involving anyone else, but he chose to wait until the Venua governor election campaign was over. Amid this calm, there was one major piece of news that had shaken Venua over the past eleven days. The public was shocked by the sudden wedding announcement of Darren Xanta and Nora Conry. The surprise was not because of Darren, but because of Nora. Her popularity as a celebrity made this news a hot topic in the media and among her fans. Many supported this decision, but not a few questioned and opposed it. Today, Nora and Darren were scheduled to appear on the Net TV talk show. The show aimed to

0046-Focus the Campaign!
Elsewhere, at the Conry Mansion In the luxurious dining room, the serene atmosphere was filled with the aroma of delectable food. Donald Conry, a distinguished middle-aged man, sat at the head of the long dining table. Opposite him sat Nora Conry, his beautiful only daughter. Nora was a major star in the capital, an actress who had starred in several box office hits and amassed billions of followers on social media. Her cunning and ambitious nature, inherited from her father, drove her to achieve fame by any means, even resorting to underhanded methods. That evening, Donald spoke about the plans he had meticulously prepared for Nora’s wedding. “Your wedding will take place in two weeks, Nora,” he said confidently. “You’ll marry Darren, and everything will proceed smoothly.” Nora only nodded.

Hammo smiled cynically, his eyes showing a sharp indifference. "Biella?" he said, waving his hand as if swatting away a fly. "I don't really care about that girl. She’s not a threat to my career." "Zander didn’t kidnap her to attack me politically; he did it because he's interested in her. He probably just wants to keep her as a pet." Voss watched Hammo closely but said nothing. Hammo continued, "After Zander is dead, I'll search for Biella at his house, if she’s still alive. And of course, I’ll kill her." Hammo leaned back in his chair, then let out a short sigh before speaking in a cold tone, "Biella should never have been alive in the first place." "Galio and I had planned that for a long time. We sent her to the nursing home hoping she’d die there. But she’s too stubborn." "In fact, even when Galio injected hormones to accelerate her death, the girl still survived." Voss twirled his wine glass in his hand. Hammo smiled confidently as he shared the latest news wi

0044-Hammo and Voss
Mansion Gruc, a luxurious property towering majestically on a hill in Atome, was a symbol of power and opulence. This was Voss's home. Tonight, the atmosphere in the mansion felt different, more tense yet still filled with intimacy. Inside Voss’s private room, adorned with luxurious furniture and gold-plated ornaments, Hammo was sitting with Voss. Around the room, several guards stood watch, alert and attentive. They had long been accustomed to the intimate relationship between Voss and Hammo, a bond that was never spoken of but was common knowledge among them. Hammo, with a confident smile, hugged Voss tightly. "I've taken care of everything," he said in a teasing tone. "Tonight, we will get Zander's head. I guarantee it." Voss, standing by the large window overlooking the mansion's garden, gazed at the night sky with a calm yet thoughtful expression. "And what if you fail?" Voss asked, his tone flat but carrying a subtle threat. Hammo released the hug and looked

Suddenly, the headlights of the two Hummers parked behind them went out, and the forest was instantly plunged into darkness. They were startled, exchanging glances, wondering who had turned off the lights of their vehicles. There was no sound of an engine, just the soft rustling of wind among the trees. Maxi furrowed his brow. "Who did that?" he muttered, his voice a mix of confusion and anger. However, he refused to let fear cloud his judgment. "Stay alert!" he ordered firmly, then gave commands to his men. "Point your guns! Shoot Zander the moment you see him!" The men nodded, though fear was starting to grip them. Everyone knew this night could end badly, but retreat was not an option. The thick, suffocating darkness of the forest seemed to swallow them whole. They couldn’t see a thing! Maxi quickly turned on his handheld flashlight, but the light only illuminated a few meters around them. Every moving shadow beyond the light’s reach only intensified the tens
