"You do," Garcia affirmed. "But at what cost? What about Zelda, Oliver's wife? What about the child who may be caught in a constant tug-of-war between families? Have you thought about what that would do to the psyche of a young life?"

Logan was silent for a moment, absorbing the piercing truth in Garcia's words.

"I've considered it, but how can I ignore what my heart wants? How can I simply turn my back on a life that could be full of love?"

Garcia sighed. "It's a dilemma, Logan. I can see that you're torn. But consider this: Once a child is involved, it's no longer just about what your heart wants. It becomes about what's best for that child. A child shouldn't be born into a battlefield."

Logan felt her eyes moisten. She hadn't thought about it to this depth. "So, what do you suggest I do, Aunt Garcia? Walk away? Suppress what I feel for Oliver and the life we could potentially build?"

Garcia paused, choosing her words carefully. "I'm not suggesting you walk away. But I am suggestin

Is that the best you can do?"For a moment, Logan felt trapped, but she also knew she had to stand her ground."Don't underestimate what I can do," she said, locking eyes with them both.

    Oliver studied Logan's expression, sensing that there was more to the situation. "Trying to protect them?" he asked gently.Logan shook her head, her eyes filled with understanding. "It's not like that, hun. But they are your..."He cut her off, his tone firm. "It doesn't matter. These two are up to no good, so never trust them."Logan nodded lightly. "I understand," she said, appreciating Oliver's concern.Oliver's smile reassured her. He then inquired, "What are you doing here dressed like this?"Caught off guard, Logan hesitated. She couldn't reveal that she had gone to talk to Garcia. "Uhm... Actually... I wanted to go and ask the cooks if food is ready."Oliver nodded, his protective instincts still on high alert. "Are you hungry?"She nodded and admitted, "Yeah, I was feeling hungry, that's why."Drawing her closer, Oliver planted a tender kiss on her lips. "Alright, no problem. I'm going to my mom to talk to her. You should go inside and dress up. I'll make sure they serve you

    Oliver nodded, "Take care of your health. I've spoken to the chef, so you won't eat anything that might affect you. And avoid eating at night, too."Garcia chuckled affectionately. "You've said it many times, don't worry."Oliver turned to Logan, his eyes softening. She looked on, teary-eyed, as he bid her farewell. She longed to go with him to the airport, but Oliver insisted on his own.Stepping outside, Oliver settled into the waiting car, prepared for his departure. The journey to the airport passed in quiet reflection, and after 45 minutes, the car arrived at its destination. Oliver disembarked, the car pulling away.He immediately dialed Vespera's contact, inquiring about their whereabouts.Vespera informed him that she was already on her way.Shortly after, a blue car pulled up, and Vespera emerged, exuding a quiet elegance.

The weight of Oliver's absence was palpable in her voice.Abigail understood her daughter's longing and offered a reassuring smile. "I know, dear. It's natural to feel that way.

He hadn't expected Zelda to recognize it. "Yes, it is. How do you know about it?" he inquired, genuinely surprised.Zelda nodded, her expression a mixture of awe and disbelief. "I know quite a bit about it. Oliver, this piece is valued at $30 million. How did you get it?"Gasp!" $30 million?"The room fell into stunned silence.

    The cacophony of gunfire gradually began to subside as Vespera and her remaining men pressed deeper into the warehouse. Dust particles danced in the slivers of light that pierced the shadows, casting an ethereal glow on the scene of chaos they had unleashed. The once formidable gang members were now scrambling, their coordinated efforts unraveling under the relentless assault from Vespera’s team.Vespera took a moment to steady her breathing, her eyes scanning the dimly lit interior for any signs of movement. Her twin pistols, still warm from the earlier exchanges, were firmly gripped in her hands. She glanced over to her lieutenant, Marcus, who was crouched behind a stack of crates, tending to a wound on his shoulder.“Marcus, status report,” Vespera commanded softly, her voice cutting through the lingering tension.Marcus glanced up, wincing as he pressed a makeshift bandage against his injury. “We’ve neutralized the majority of their front line.

    Boom!” Boom!”Gunfire thundered through the warehouse like a crack of constant lightning, echoing off the metal walls. Vespera crouched behind a stack of crates, breathing heavily as she surveyed the confusion erupting around her. Across the open space, several of her men darted from cover to cover, exchanging bullets with the entrenched gang. The flickering overhead lights and the fading daylight outside cast strange shadows on everyone’s faces, making it hard to tell friend from foe at a glance.A sudden movement drew Vespera’s eye—a gang member peering out from behind a barrel. He was angling his rifle around, clearly targeting one of her flanking teammates. Vespera exhaled slowly to steady her aim. Boom!” With a single, crisp shot, she put a bullet through his chest. He staggered, eyes wide in disbelief, then collapsed to the concrete floor. His rifle clattered away from his limp fingers.No sooner had she taken that shot than chaos erupted on her left.

    Inside the warehouse, tension hung as thick as the cigarette smoke lingering in the air. The men, on edge from the failed phone call, sat in uneasy silence while their boss poured himself another stiff drink. Suddenly, one of the gang members—a tall, lanky fellow wearing a threadbare jacket—stood up, fidgeting with his belt buckle. “Boss,” he mumbled, trying not to meet the scarred man’s gaze, “I need to step out. Gotta—uh—ease myself.” The boss, halfway through knocking back his liquor, merely grunted. No one else spoke. They watched the lanky man slip past the makeshift barricade of crates and head for the side exit. The heavy metal door groaned in protest as he shouldered it open and stepped out. Outside, the wind carried the faint rustle of footsteps—just enough to prickle the senses. The lanky man squinted into the darkness, blinked, and felt his heart slam in his chest. Figures moved in the shadows—silent, intent, armed to the teeth. It didn’t take long for him to recognize

  • Chapter 425: Vespera Arrival At The base

    An hour later, Vespera and her men pulled off the main road and into a desolate stretch of industrial wasteland far from the heart of town. The drive had been tense but uneventful; now, their headlights illuminated cracked asphalt and abandoned warehouses, all standing silent under the pale glow of a few flickering streetlights. The pavement was riddled with weeds poking through the cracks, and torn chain-link fences ran along the perimeter, giving the area a forlorn, almost post-apocalyptic feel.As they brought their vehicles to a stop near a rusted sign that was barely legible, the hum of the engines cut out, plunging the surroundings into an eerie hush. In the distance, the faint outline of the gang’s base rose against the horizon—a hulking, squat structure of corrugated metal and boarded-up windows. It was set back from the main road, hidden amid tangles of overgrown brush and twisted piles of scrap. An occasional burst of light from a flickering floodlight revealed hints of move

    As Vespera moved towards the car, she turned back to address her team, her expression steely."Before we head out, clean up these bodies," she instructed, her voice firm. "Make sure there’s no trace left behind. I don’t want any sign of this incident here."One of the guards stepped forward, nodding but looking at the black van parked nearby. "And the vehicle, ma’am? What do we do with it?”Vespera smirked, a hint of dark amusement in her eyes. "We’ll handle that too. Have it rebranded, stripped of any identifiers. Once it’s ready, it’ll be delivered to the local orphanage as a donation. They could use a decent vehicle more than these fools ever could."The guard’s mouth curled into a knowing smile as he nodded. "Understood, ma’am. We’ll get it done."The team moved quickly, setting about their tasks with military precision. Two guards began gathering the bodies, making sure every detail was accounted for, while others turned their attention to wiping down the van and removing any wea

    Grimacing with agony, the man gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, struggling to endure the searing pain that radiated from his wounded thigh. Each breath was a struggle. With a steely glint in her eyes, Vespera withdrew the gun from the man's lips and aimed it at his knee with chilling precision. Without a moment's hesitation, she pulled the trigger, the deafening boom of the gunshot reverberating through the air as a bullet tore through the man's knee, shattering bone and tissue with brutal force. The man's scream echoed through the night, his body wracked with agony as he collapsed to the ground, his shattered knee rendering him utterly helpless before Vespera's merciless interrogation. "Where's the address?" Vespera demanded once more, her voice cold. Gulping hard, the man's eyes darted nervously as he struggled to compose himself through the haze of pain and fear. Finally, with a shaky breath, he spoke in a voice barely above a whisper. "The address... it's..." he

    As they continued to discuss their strategy, a sudden sense of unease washed over one of the men. He stiffened, his eyes darting around the van as if searching for an unseen threat."Hey, did you guys see that?" he whispered urgently, his voice laced with alarm.The other men glanced at him, their expressions puzzled. "See what?" one of them asked, his brow furrowing in confusion."I saw something move," the man insisted, his voice rising with panic. "It was like lightning, but I couldn't see anyone.”His words hung in the air, the silence that followed thick with tension. The other men exchanged wary glances, their nerves on edge as they scanned their surroundings for any sign of danger."Maybe you're just imagining things," one of them suggested, trying to quell the rising sense of fear.But the man shook his head adamantly. "No, I'm telling you, something's not right. We need to be on high alert.”"Come on, nothing will happen," one of the men scoffed, trying to quell the rising te
