It was already late when their flight landed, so Jaxon decided they should book a space at Sky Suite and spend the night. They walked to the receptionist and were booking a room when Williams saw them and approached, with Sasha by his side.
"Jaxon! Milly!" Williams called out, smiling broadly as he walked over.
Jaxon turned, a bit surprised but happy to see him. "Williams! What a surprise!" He shook hands with Williams, who then hugged Milly warmly.
"Hey, Williams," Milly said, smiling. "Fancy meeting you here."
"This is Sasha," Williams said, introducing the woman beside him. "She's a very good friend of mine." He turned to Sasha and said, “And these are my two colleagues at work, Jaxon Sterling and Milly Sienna.”
Sasha smiled and extended her hand. "Nice to meet you both."
"Nice to meet you too, Sasha

Chapter 256The evening progressed with laughter and an ever-growing sense of camaraderie. Sasha lit up a cigarette, offering one to Jaxon and Milly. Jaxon eagerly took one, while Milly hesitated for a moment before accepting. Meanwhile, Williams took a sip of his drink, declining the cigarette with a polite shake of his head."I don't smoke," Williams explained. "Never have."Sasha blew a stream of smoke into the air, looking at Williams with a playful smirk. "You don't know what you're missing."Jaxon, now feeling the effects of both the alcohol and the cigarette, leaned back in his chair and grinned. "So, Sasha, you seem like a fun person. Have you ever... you know, had a wild night with more than one person?"Milly giggled, clearly feeling the buzz as well. "Jaxon! You're so naughty!"Sasha laughed, taking another drag from her cigarette. "Oh, I've had my

Chapter 257The next morning, Milly and Jaxon got dressed and prepared to go to EMC. Milly was anxious about her absence from work, planning to lie about being unwell. Jaxon, on the other hand, was nonchalant, relying on his father's influence as a board member.As they drove to the company, Milly glanced at Jaxon. "Are you sure this is a good idea?" she asked, her voice tinged with worry.Jaxon shrugged. "Relax, Milly. No one's going to fire you. Besides, my father will handle everything."They arrived at EMC, and Jaxon kissed Milly on the cheek. "I'll go see my father. You go sign in and explain your absence.""Don't forget the money you promised me." Milly reminded him.Jaxon responded quickly: "Right, I'll get it from my dad right away. Meet me downstairs when you're done."Milly nodded, feeling a knot in her stomach. "Okay. Good luck with your dad."Jaxon smirked. "I don't need luck. Just charm."They parted ways, Jaxon heading to his father's office while Milly went to the admin

Chapter 258Jaxon barged into James' office, his face flushed with anger. He saw James shaking hands with Milly and, without waiting another second, confronted him."Leave Milly alone!" Jaxon shouted, stepping closer. "She's sick, and you have no right to question her whereabouts because she took leave from me."James looked confused and surprised, but before Milly could intervene and calm Jaxon down, Jaxon grabbed James by the shirt and pulled him close.James, clearly annoyed, said firmly, "Let go of me, Jaxon. You have no idea what you're talking about."Jaxon sneered, his grip tightening, "What are you gonna do about it, huh?"Milly, using a soft tone, pleaded, "Jaxon, sweetie, please calm down. Everything's sorted out now. James has been understanding."Ignoring her, Jaxon leaned in closer to James and hissed, "Listen up, you're still on my list of people I need to teach a lesson. Don't you forget that."James looked directly into Jaxon's eyes, his voice steady, "You need to calm

Chapter 259Meanwhile, back at Sky Care in Richard's ward, Richard was already standing up, flexing his arms, and smiling broadly. "Feeling good, Richard?" Dr. Avery, the head doctor, asked as he walked into the room."Better than ever, Doc," Richard replied with a grin. "I can't believe it. I never thought I'd walk again."Dr. Avery nodded, a pleased smile on his face. "Well, it looks like all the treatments have paid off. Your progress has been remarkable."Richard watched as Dr. Avery checked his vitals once again with some advanced devices. The doctor meticulously noted Richard's bone density and neural connections. "Everything looks great," Dr. Avery confirmed, adjusting his glasses. "Your bones have regained their strength, and your neural connections are functioning perfectly.""That's amazing," Richard said, flexing his fingers. "It's like a miracle.""It certainly is," Dr. Avery agreed. He then proceeded to ask Richard a series of questions to ensure everything was in order

Chapter 260After getting the news from her dad that he was okay and fine, and could walk again and was ready to go home, Alisha was overjoyed.She had been worried sick about him ever since he got down with the stroke, and hearing his voice full of life again was a massive relief.The smile on her face was impossible to hide as she moved through her day at work, but she found it increasingly difficult to concentrate.Her thoughts kept drifting back to Sky Care. She imagined her dad standing up from his hospital bed, walking steadily with the help of the nurses, and the smile on his face when he saw her. The clock seemed to be ticking slower than ever. "Why does time always move so slowly when you're looking forward to something?" she wondered with a smile.She tried to focus on her tasks, answering calls and attending meetings, but her mind was elsewhere. Colleagues noticed her distracted state, and a few even teased her about being in love. She just laughed it off, not wanting to sh

Chapter 261Meanwhile, they got home around 10 pm that night. The gate was locked, so Alisha honked several times, but there was no answer.Richard noticed her frustration and said, "Don't worry, honey, I've got this."He tried getting out of the car, but Alisha stopped him. "Dad, I'll handle it," she said.But Richard insisted, "No, I'll do it."He finally got out of the car and proceeded to go open the gate for her.At that moment, Kate was already coming out of the house, muttering, "I'm coming, I'm coming." She scolded, "Whoever is blowing that horn, take it easy! Alisha, is that you? Where are you coming from this late?"As she opened the gate, she was shocked to see her husband, Richard, standing there. "Richard!" she exclaimed, "You're back and on your feet!"She tried to hug him, but Richard pushed her away. "Get out of my way," he barked. "I'll slap you if you don't disappear from my sight."Kate was shocked and embarrassed, remaining silent as Richard opened the gate fully f

Chapter 262It was almost 5pm.Meanwhile, Eric Wood sat in his office, the dim lighting reflecting his somber mood as he stared at the phone on his desk. The thought of visiting Liam Carter in the hospital sent chills down his bones.Liam has been effectively blackmailing him into a business partnership, and it weighed heavily on his mind because Liam might accuse him of being responsible for current state. He ran a hand through his hair, debating whether it was worth the trouble. Despite the coercion, Liam was going to be a significant business partner, and maintaining a good relationship seemed crucial. But the idea of bowing to Liam’s demands left a bitter taste in his mouth.Finally, he sighed and picked up the phone, dialing James’ number.James was at his desk, organizing documents when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Eric. "Eric," he answered, his voice steady. "What’s up?""James," Eric began, his tone hesitant. "I’ve been thinking... should I go se

Chapter 263Eric Wood stepped out of the car, his driver quickly moving to open the door for him. He nodded in acknowledgment, adjusting his suit jacket as he stepped onto the pavement.The familiar sight of the hospital loomed before him, a place he had visited countless times with his daughter, Claire, for her checkups. It felt different today, though. This visit wasn’t for Claire—it was business, and it was personal.As he walked toward the entrance, a few hospital workers milling about recognized him. Their faces lit up with recognition as they approached him.“Mr. Wood, good afternoon!” one of the nurses greeted him with a warm smile. “It’s been a while since we last saw you.”“Good afternoon, Mr. Wood,” another worker chimed in, extending a hand. “How have you been?”Eric smiled politely, shaking hands with them. “Good afternoon,” he replied, his tone friendly but professional. “It’s good to see all of you. How’s everyone doing?”“We’re doing well, sir,” the first nurse responde

Chapter 397Morning broke with a dull glow, illuminating the quiet safe house nestled deep in the woods. Inside, tension hung thick in the air. Williams was standing near the window with a phone pressed to his ear, speaking in a calm but calculated tone.“We’ve got your son, Charles,” he said, his voice steady. “But we haven’t located Jaxon.”On the other end of the line, Mr. Sterling’s voice cracked with emotion. “Charles? Is he safe? Are you sure?” Relief flooded his tone, but it was quickly shadowed by anxiety. “What about Jaxon? Did you find him? Is there anything—anything—leading up to him?”Williams let out a quiet sigh, one that sounded more like practiced patience than genuine concern. “That’s all we could manage,” he replied. “The men who took Jaxon still have him, and from what we’ve gathered, they plan to kill him if there’s any interference.”Mr. Sterling was silent for a beat, processing the grim news. Then, his voice rose, tinged with panic. “What do I do now? How do I

Chapter 396James and Gregor stepped out of their concealed position in the underbrush as the taillights of the SUV disappeared into the darkness. The cool night air was eerily silent now, broken only by the faint rustling of leaves and the muffled sounds of wildlife in the distance. The ground beneath their boots crunched softly as they moved toward the aftermath of the chaos they had just witnessed.Gregor’s eyes scanned the scene, his face expressionless as he took in the lifeless bodies sprawled across the area. Three of them, including Ben they once held, lay motionless, their weapons discarded and their blood staining the dirt beneath them.Gregor crouched beside one of the bodies, briefly checking for a pulse, though he already knew there was none. Standing, he shook his head and muttered, “Well, that’s the life they’ve chosen for themselves.”James, standing a few steps behind him, remained silent for a moment, his sharp eyes darting around the scene.

Chapter 395The shadows of the dilapidated bunker stretched long under the moonlight as Williams and his team lay in wait. They had taken up position hours earlier, tucked inside Jaxon’s sleek sports car, the dark, polished metal blending seamlessly into the night. The air inside the vehicle was stifling, thick with tension and the faint metallic tang of gun oil. Every man was armed and ready, their nerves wound tight, waiting for the right moment to strike. Williams sat in the driver’s seat, his hands resting casually on the steering wheel, though his eyes never left the rearview mirror. Beside him, Kane sat rigid, one hand gripping Jaxon’s arm firmly while the other rested on the stock of a shotgun lying across his lap. In the cramped sports car, Tom and Dorian crouched uncomfortably in the trunk, their weapons at the ready, waiting for Williams’ signal.The silence inside the car was shattered when headlights cut through the darkness. A single car approached, its rumbling engine e

Chapter 394The dense canopy of the forest loomed overhead, casting long shadows over the makeshift campsite where James and Gregor had been holed up for days. The air was damp, thick with the earthy scent of moss and pine, and the distant call of nocturnal creatures echoed through the stillness.Gregor sat cross-legged on the damp ground, his eyes glued to the small tablet in his lap. A blinking red dot pulsed steadily on the screen—the nano tracker they’d planted on Ben’s phone.For three grueling days, they’d followed that dot from one hideout to another, staying just far enough away not to be detected. They’d spent their nights in the car or in the bush, catching only brief moments of sleep between shifts of surveillance.Tonight was no different, and Gregor’s tired eyes burned as he watched the screen, hoping for any sign of movement.James lay stretched out on the ground beside him, his jacket pulled over his face to block out the faint moonlight filtering through the trees.

Chapter 393Jack paced back and forth in the dimly lit room, his gun laid out on the table as he meticulously assembled and armored it. Each metallic click echoed in the stale air, punctuating the tense atmosphere.They had to switch hideouts when Ben rejoined them, in case he was being tailed. Jack carefully considered the situation and concluded that bringing him back into the operation as an additional resource would be a wise decision, just in case they encountered any unexpected challenges but he made sure they switch hideout from time to time. But their main exchange point was still the old bunker because it has a lot of escape routes and underground tunnels.Ken was nearby, double-checking their supply of ammunition, while Denver and Ben lounged on an old, battered couch, their excitement barely contained.“Finally, we’re getting out of this shithole with a bundle of millions,” Denver said to Ben, leaning back with a smug grin. He flicked a discarded cigarette butt into the cor

Chapter 392The evening sky was a dusky orange, streaked with long trails of purple as the sun dipped below the horizon. Williams parked the sleek, black car that Mr. Sterling had secured for him—a high-profile Lamborghini that was both remarkable and practical for what was about to go down.The tinted windows gleamed faintly in the fading light as he stepped out, dressed in a dark hoodie and jeans. He adjusted the baseball cap on his head and pulled it lower to obscure his face further.Kane was already waiting near the edge of the gravel lot, leaning casually against a rusted lamp post that barely flickered to life. His stance was relaxed, but his eyes darted around, sharp and alert. A few paces away, Tom and Dorian lingered by the entrance to the abandoned warehouse, their conversation low but punctuated with short laughs.Williams approached Kane with purposeful strides. Without a word, he gestured for Kane to follow him a short distance away from the others.“They ready?” William

Chapter 391Andrew’s pen hovered over the page. “Eric Wood? The CEO of EMC?”“Yes,” Sterling said, his voice steady now, laced with conviction. “He’s had a vendetta against my family for months. He’s jealous of our success, our influence. And now, with everything happening at EMC, I wouldn’t put it past him to stoop this low. My two sons were kidnapped in a sparse of a few weeks. Is it not strange?”Andrew tilted his head, his expression skeptical. “That’s a serious accusation, Mr. Sterling. Do you have any evidence to support this?”Mr. Sterling sighed heavily, as though burdened by the weight of his own claim. “Not concrete evidence, no. But think about it. He has the resources, the motive. And I heard through some… private channels that he’s been meeting with unsavory characters lately. People who could easily pull off something like this.”Andrew jotted a few notes, his pen moving quickly. “I see. I’ll look into it. But you understand we can’t act on hearsay alone.”“Of course, of

Chapter 390As soon as Mr. Sterling ended the call with Williams, he hurried to his closet, throwing on a sleek navy suit and matching tie. His hands trembled slightly as he adjusted the knot, but he steeled himself, taking a deep breath.This wasn’t just a favor for Williams; it was a calculated move to get his two sons back. Grabbing his keys, he rushed out of his mansion, the elevator ride to the ground floor feeling agonizingly slow.When he finally stepped outside, the cool morning air bit at his face, but he paid it no mind. His black sedan waited at the curb, and he climbed in, starting the engine with a growl. As he sped toward Sky Suite, he rehearsed the lies he might need to tell to retrieve Jaxon’s car.The towering Sky Suite hotel loomed ahead, its modern glass facade gleaming brightly under the early morning sun. As Mr. Sterling approached the entrance, his stomach tightened. The sight of two patrol cars parked near the lobby entrance made his pulse quicken. Uniformed off

Chapter 389
Chapter 389As soon as Kane received the message from Tom that Jaxon had finally broken under the pressure and confessed, he immediately pulled out his phone and dialed Williams. His tone was sharp, clipped, and direct as he relayed the crucial information.“He finally talked,” Kane said without any preamble. “He’s given up Jack’s location—some bunker near the old docks.”Williams, on the other end of the line, didn’t respond right away. The faint sound of tapping, likely his pen against his desk, filled the silence. “Good,” Williams finally said, his voice steady but tinged with calculation. “Did he say anything about how many men Jack has with him?”“Yeah,” Kane replied. “Three, including Jack himself. He said one of them ran away. It’s a small crew.”Williams let out a low hum of approval. “That’s manageable. We’ve got the numbers, four to three. Here’s the plan,” he said, leaning forward in his chair. “You’re going to prep Jaxon to lead you straight to the bunker. He’s our key. Ma
