I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0049-Nora and Biella
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

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. "We're good friends now." The lie was seamlessly covered up, restoring the smooth flow of the event. The show continued without any further sensitive questions. The host proceeded with lighter questions, focusing on their wedding preparations. Darren and Nora answered calmly, keeping up the charade. The talk show eventually ended successfully. As predicted, media analysis showed a significant boost in the popularity of the Xanta family and gubernatorial candi

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

Without hesitation, Zander and Biella walked toward the Xanta family's designated seats on the wedding stage. Their presence in an area typically reserved for immediate family members sparked a flurry of whispers among the guests. Darren stared at them stiffly, while Hammo tried to remain composed, though his breathing had noticeably deepened. The reporters, who had been closely observing every moment, seized the opportunity. One of them stood up and asked, “Biella, who is this man holding your hand tonight?” Biella turned with a confident smile, as if she had already anticipated the question. She glanced at Zander briefly before answering firmly, “He is my fiancé.” The atmosphere shifted instantly. The murmurs among the guests grew louder, with some even appearing visibly shocked. The re
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0053-Zander is Not Leaving
“Then tell me, where am I supposed to sleep with Nora?” “This is our first night as husband and wife, and the first time Nora is staying here. Do you think it’s right to leave my new wife without a room?” Biella merely looked at Darren with a blank expression, like a cat unbothered by a small dog’s barking. Slowly, she shifted her gaze to Nora, who looked awkward and confused, then spoke in a calm yet cutting tone. “Aren’t there plenty of hotels in Venua?” “You and Nora can pick one and stay there tonight.” “As newlyweds, wouldn’t it be better for you to enjoy your first night somewhere more... private?” Darren was taken aback by her statement. Before he could interject, Biella continued in an even more relaxed tone—though clearly laced with mockery. “Besides, you wouldn’t want the entire house to hear... your moans, would you?” “Sounds like that can be quite disruptive in the middle of the night, especially for the other residents.” “So really, I’m just making a thoughtful

How could her own family harm her?"Biella raised an eyebrow briefly b

The night grew deeper.Biella was already lying on the bed, her eyes fixed on the ceiling as her thoughts began to drift. Tonight felt different.For the first time in the past two years, she was back in this mansion.In the corner of the room, Zander sat on the sofa, a laptop open on his lap.He glanced briefly at Biella, ensuring she was okay."Go to sleep," he said in a low but warm voice. "I’ll sleep later."Biella looked at Zander."Earlier... Darren said you were a former war commander," she said softly."Is that true?"Zander looked at Biella, his gaze deep yet calm."Yes, it’s true," he replied briefly.Biella exhaled slowly.Although she couldn’t recall much about her past, she could sense that Zander’s presence was different from that of an ordinary person.The way he spoke, the way he carried himself—everything about him showed that Zander had experience dealing with difficult situations.She turned toward Zander, looking at him sincerely."Thank you..." she murmured."Tha

0077-Go Ahead
The aunts’ children quickly took over the house, as if the grand mansion was their personal playground. Lauren and Chika were busy rocking back and forth on an antique rocking chair in the living room, laughing as they pushed it so hard that it nearly tipped over. Selly casually sat at the grand piano in the corner of the room, pressing random keys without care, producing an off-key cacophony that grated on the ears. Meanwhile, the triplets—Aca, Eca, and Ica—ran through the house, opening every door they came across and barging into private rooms without the slightest hesitation. It wasn’t long before they discovered the private swimming pool in the backyard. Without a second thought, the six teenage girls jumped into the water with delight, splashing around wildly and adding to the growing chaos in the house. Darren, already at his limit, abruptly stood up, slamming his fist on the dining table so hard that the silverware rattled. "Enough!" he bellowed. But the aunts
0076-The Aunts
That night, the atmosphere in the Xanta family's dining room was filled with unspoken tension. At the long dining table, illuminated by a luxurious crystal chandelier, Madam Nousa sat at the head of the table with an air of authority, watching over her children: Darren, Ganza, and Biella. Hammo was nowhere among them—he was now imprisoned in his own body, paralyzed and in pain, unaware that his private nurse, recruited by Madam Nousa, was slowly poisoning him with a substance that would gradually destroy his organs. They had just begun their meal when suddenly, the front door swung open, followed by the sound of numerous footsteps. Three middle-aged women, each carrying large suitcases, entered the house with an air of arrogance. Alongside them were six teenage girls, all in their early teens, their eyes filled with excitement as they took in the grand interior of the Xanta estate. They were Lauren and Chika, daughters of Aunt Sauna; Selly, daughter of Aunt Wulan; and the tr
0075-I Don't Like Him
**The Next Day.** A fifty-year-old man arrived at Madam Nousa's private chamber. There were five knocks on the door. Madam Nousa, who was smoking, turned toward the door with a calm expression. She already knew who had come. Austin, a man in a formal suit with a firm posture and an unreadable face, stepped inside after locking the door behind him. Though age had crept upon him, his body remained solid and strong—a remnant of his past as a former military man. For twenty-eight years, Austin had served as the personal assistant of the Xanta family, handling all affairs and acting as Hammo’s right-hand man. However, no one knew that he was also Madam Nousa’s secret lover. Their affair had begun long before Madam Nousa married Hammo, a relationship that was nothing more than an outlet for their carnal desires. Without a word, Austin loosened his tie and walked toward her. Madam Nousa stood from her chair, inhaled her cigarette deeply, then exhaled the smoke into Austin
0074-Tomorrow...Will Get Married
One hour later, Biella returned to the Xanta family home with Zander. That night felt more ominous than usual because the moment she stepped into the main hall, she immediately saw Madam Nousa arriving with Darren and Hammo, who was seated in a wheelchair. It was Madam Nousa herself who pushed the wheelchair, her expression unreadable. Darren’s gaze instantly shifted to Biella, who stood tall beside Zander. His anger flared the moment he saw the man. With a voice full of hatred, Darren snapped, “Biella! You ungrateful child! Your father is in this condition, and all you do is spend time with that useless man? You only think about yourself!” However, Biella did not react as Darren had expected. Her face remained calm, as if his words had no effect on her. With a cold yet firm tone, Biella replied, “I’m ungrateful? Darren, have you forgotten who has been paying for all of Father’s medical expenses? If not me, then who? You?” Darren was momentarily silent, but he quickly tried to d
0073-Madam N
Meanwhile, elsewhere… After Nora's departure, Darren felt utterly devastated. Without power, money, or allies, he felt cornered. At this moment, the only person left by his side was his mother, Madam Nousa. Madam Nousa gazed at her son, who sat with his head bowed. She could see the panic in Darren’s eyes. With a gentle yet firm voice, she said, “Darren, listen to me. I will always be with you, no matter what. No matter what happens. You are my son, and I will not let you fall just like that.” Darren looked up, his eyes filled with despair. “But I’ve lost everything, Mom… I have no power, no money, no allies. I don’t even know what to do anymore…” Madam Nousa gave a small smile. “You’re wrong, my dear. You still have me. And I have more power than you can imagine.” Madam Nousa, or better known as "Madam N," was a figure both feared and respected in the underground world. After entering a contract marriage with Hammo, she built the largest prostitution empire in the world. With
0072-I Guarantee....
Biella sat in the CEO’s chair, her head lowered, her hands trembling as she read report after report filled with complaints from long-time employees of Xanta Corporation. Tears welled up in her eyes, eventually falling one by one. She couldn’t begin to imagine what her employees had endured over the past two years. Before she disappeared, the company had been running smoothly. Employees received fair benefits, opportunities for promotion were wide open, and the work environment was comfortable. But now, everything had been destroyed in the hands of Darren and Hammo. Zander, standing nearby, noticed Biella’s shoulders shaking. He knew how devastated she felt. Without a second thought, Biella stood up and threw herself into Zander’s arms. Her sobs broke against his shoulder, shaking her small, fragile body. Zander could feel Biella’s pain. His hand lifted, gently stroking her back. His anger toward Darren and Hammo burned even stronger. How could they treat this company so cruelly,
0071-At the Xanta Company
Madam Nousa stared sharply at Nora, trying to find a way to change her mind. However, Nora did not show the slightest hesitation. She stood tall, arms crossed over her chest, her eyes fixed straight on Darren, who remained silent in shock. "I've made my decision," Nora said, her voice cold and unwavering. "There’s nothing left to expect from this marriage." "Our agreement clearly stated that this marriage should be mutually beneficial. But look at your situation now, Darren. Your father failed to become governor. You're no longer the head of the Xanta family business. So tell me, what do I gain from this anymore?" Darren remained silent, his face pale and expression blank. From the beginning, he knew this marriage was nothing more than a business arrangement, but hearing Nora say it so bluntly still pierced deep. Madam Nousa glanced at her son, hoping for a reaction, but Darren simply lowered his head, as if accepting this bitter reality without resistance. "My father was suppos
0070-I Want A Divorce
A few days later, the day of the Venua governor election arrived. However, the tense political atmosphere had now shifted into a major scandal. The Xanta family’s name was once again the subject of heated discussions in the media and among the elite after shocking news about Hammo’s condition spread widely. Hammo was still lying weak in the hospital, his body paralyzed, unable to speak or move much. He was officially disqualified from the gubernatorial race. However, it was not just his physical condition that became the talk of the town—it was the reason behind his downfall. No one knew where it started, but rumors spread that Hammo had suffered severe shock after hearing the news of his same-sex lover, Voss’s, death. Darren, now the central figure of the Xanta family, felt the need to act immediately. Standing before dozens of reporters at an impromptu press conference, he firmly clarified that the rumors were untrue. "My father is not paralyzed because of the news circu
0069-Hammo Fainted!
Hammo snatched the tablet from his informant's hand with a rough motion. His sharp eyes scanned the screen, but slowly, his expression changed. His pupils widened, his mouth parted slightly, and the confidence that usually radiated from his face was now replaced by a deathly pale complexion. His body stiffened instantly. His fingers, gripping the tablet tightly, began to tremble. Across the table, Darren noticed the drastic change in his father's expression. "What happened?" The informant swallowed hard before leaning in and whispering once more into Hammo’s ear, "Mr. Voss is dead, Boss… His head was delivered to the Avoja mansion as a warning." It was as if the world had stopped spinning! The fine porcelain plates and silverware on the dining table became nothing more than silent background noise. Hammo opened his mouth, but no words came out. He tried to breathe, but his chest felt tight. Voss… dead? Impossible! It couldn’t be! "How… how did he die?" Hammo’s voice trem
