*****

For a moment, time itself seemed to pause within the bar, everyone staring at the Second Lion King in a daze, then;

“Who do we have here?”

Mistress Ayra’s voice rang out, bright and playful as always.

In the following second, the heavy and suffocating silence blanketing the bar was shattered like a piece of glass.

The Second Lion King flinched slightly, as did the other customers, all of them breaking out of their trance.

Immediately following this, awkwardness spread through the bar like a disease, no one knowing what to say.

Everyone in the bar knew what had happened and had made it the only discussed topic within the bar.

They had mocked it, calling the Second Lion King a eunuch who had lost everything and also cursing his deceased brother.

They had gossiped about it right up until the moment he walked in, loudly laughing about it until the second Lion King entered and heard them.

    *****“I’m really confused, though,” an elderly man muttered as he drove along the outskirts of Riverton City, his voice tinged with curiosity. His hair was a full head of gray, a testament to his years of experience, yet his expression showed genuine uncertainty at this moment.Beside this old man, in the passenger seat, sat a lean man who didn’t seem to be older than thirty-five.His appearance was painfully ordinary—neither handsome nor ugly, the kind of man who would blend seamlessly into any crowd and whom no one would spare a second glance.But to those who truly looked… who paid attention to him, they would notice that there was something off about him.A casual smile was permanently plastered on his face, an unsettling contrast to the cold glint in his eyes.His aura was also very calm yet laced with something far more sinister, a constant whisper of bloodshed that tainted the very air around him.And lastly, his demeanor was playful, even relaxed, but beneath the surfa

    *****On the other hand, Xavier, having no idea that a heartless lunatic had been deployed to take his life, was currently staring with a helpless expression on his face.Before him sat his mother, who was currently gently rocking a sleeping Little Lola in her arms, her expression so tender, so full of love, as if she were gazing at her own newborn child.Ultimately, Xavier sighed and shook his head.“I will be heading out now, Mother,” he muttered, but instead of acknowledging him, his mother shushed him sharply.“Don’t be so loud. You will wake up the child,” she scolded, giving Xavier a stern glare.Xavier stunned, couldn’t help but blink rapidly, momentarily stunned, then he found himself at a loss, having no idea whether to laugh or cry.But I wasn’t even loud to begin with! he thought helplessly, suppressing the urge to groan.“I’m off then,” he muttered again, turning toward the door.He hesitated, waiting for his mother to at leas

    *****“I’m really confused, though,” an elderly man muttered as he drove along the outskirts of Riverton City, his voice tinged with curiosity. His hair was a full head of gray, a testament to his “This…”Hearing Victor’s response, the Soldier, who had remained impassive from the start, faltered for the first time.His rigid and cold stance instantly wavered, and then, before he could stop himself, his eyes widened with shock and disbelief.“You…” he pointed at Victor and asked with a voice heavily edged with uncertainty. “You are heading to Villa Number One?”On the other hand, the arrogant Jennifer’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat. In the next instant, it swelled with pride, understanding what was going on.‘Of course, he’d behave like this,’ she thought smugly. ‘Villa Number One is the most prestigious, most luxurious villa in the entire Oceanview Estate, after all, and we are its visitors.’Thinking this, Jennifer’s arrogance intensified, oozing out from each of her po

    *****‘I will try as much as I could not to stay long at God’s Time place,’ Xavier, who had just stepped out of the SUV mulled to himself as he stepped out of the estate gate.‘Immediately leaving there, I’ll head straight back to Sky Group. I still haven’t discussed with Grace her final decision regarding yesterday’s matter.’With his schedule rearranged, Xavier’s slightly furrowed brows finally eased, a fleeting expression of relief flashing across his otherwise lazy face.He instantly resolved to move quickly and search for a taxi. But just then, however;“Well, well, look what we have here—a filthy, mangy stray,” a voice dripping with malice, derision, and sheer revulsion suddenly cut through the air, halting Xavier in his tracks.He slowly raised his head and in the next moment, he was deeply startled.For a brief second, surprise flickered in Xavier’s eyes because the voice he had just heard belonged to none other than Jennifer.Right now, she stood there with an insuffe

    *****The soldier trembled violently, his entire body breaking into a cold sweat as the full weight of his near-disastrous mistake sank in.His throat tightened, swallowing hard against the sheer terror that gripped him.‘Which… which incompetent fool from the estate’s management team told me that Villa Number One wasn’t expecting any visitors?! Are they trying to get me killed?!’ He yelled in his mind.His pulse began to thunder against his ribs, his legs turning weak beneath him.‘Thank the heavens that I managed to control my rage just now and haven’t acted on my impulse. If I had, I wouldn’t have even realized how I died.’ He thought, his breath coming in shaky bursts as panic clawed at his insides.Just then;“You brainless mutt!”Jennifer’s sharp, scathing voice cut through the soldier’s thoughts like a whip, jolting him back to his senses."Why in the unholy hells are you still standing there gawking? Are you deaf? Did you not hear this mother give you an order?!" she

    *****Unaware that his mistake had only worsened, the soldier—who had misunderstood the words spoken to him stood frozen right now, utterly terrified.If he had followed through with his initial plan… if he had acted as he originally intended before Xavier’s presence stopped him… his fate would have been far worse than mere death.A shuddering breath escaped him as he hurriedly wiped the cold sweat beading on his forehead. Then his lips parted, but no coherent words came out.“I… I don’t… I have…” he stammered, his mind spinning in a chaotic mess.Victor and Jennifer, meanwhile, narrowed their eyes at the soldier’s peculiar reaction.For a brief moment, they exchanged glances, the same realization striking them both like a bolt of lightning.‘Could it be… that this idiot of a guard was the one who had actually smuggled this ex-convict into OceanView Estate?’In the next instant, their eyes gleamed with sudden excitement.This… this was it!Just a few days ago, they had been

Hadn’t he done it all just in order to gain Xavier’s favor?Why had he swallowed every ounce of humiliation hurled at him from those two vermin without so much as a protest?Why had he continued showing deference to the couple when it was glaringly obvious from the start that they were nothing but frauds?And yet…With his heart pounding erratically in his chest, the soldier, ever so slowly and uneasily, turned his head… his gaze settling for the first time on Xavier.Xavier was also currently staring at him.But not with anger.Not with ridicule.But with a mildly amused expression on his face.Seeing this, the soldier’s blood ran cold in his veins, and for a second, he couldn’t react, then;‘He…’His breath hitched… his mind shrieking

But then;“You… you… you…”His hand shot out, trembling badly as he pointed at the despicable pair, his mind failing to piece together a coherent response.He couldn’t fathom how this ridiculous misunderstanding was still spiraling into

    *****As Xavier walked away from Oceanview Estate, his mind churned with thoughts of everything that had just transpired.Then, suddenly—“I think it’s about time I settled the score with them.”He muttered to himself, his voice very low, almost a whisper to himself, but the weight behind his words was undeniable.In the following second, his gaze turned icy, and a murderous aura erupted from him, raw and unfiltered.Jennifer and Victor.He had suffered because of them.Because of her.She had been the catalyst, the one who had set everything in motion.Thinking this, Xavier couldn’t help but clench his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white, the memories of the past coming flooding back—Jennifer. The woman he had once loved.The only reason he had been wrongfully accused and sent to rot away in the scariest prison in the world.But had she taken care of his parents? Looked after his company, his house, and belongings in his absence?No!She had ruined them.

    *****While the soldier was busy wrestling with his thoughts, still trying to understand the reason behind Xavier’s silence, Jennifer and Victor had been staring at him like hawks, all sorts of speculation running wild between them, each entertaining the same unsettling thought—just what kind of identity could Xavier possibly have?The soldier’s words earlier words had shaken them to the core, forcing them to reconsider everything they thought they knew about Xavier.Jennifer’s heart spiked in her chest.‘Could he really have some sort of an identity we should be concerned about now?’ She wondered anxiously, the mere possibility sending a strong chill down her spine.If true, she was sure the regret would haunt her for the rest of her life.Victor, on the other hand, clenched his fists tightly, his gut twisting in unease.Given his history with Xavier, he understood well that the only way to maintain his peace was to continue staying ahead in every way.
