We didn’t mean to—”The baton came down with brutal force, crashing into the gang member’s ribs.A guttural scream erupted from his mouth, cutting off his desperate pleas.His body buckled under the blow, and he slumped forward, gasping for breath.The room filled with the sickening thud of metal against flesh and the pained gasps and cries of the gang members.“Please, Lord Cloud, have mercy! We were just following orders—”The cries o

I can't hear you!” Nathan snapped, urging him to speak louder so that everyone could hear him clearly.Their leader, frightened by Nathan, immediately spoke up, “It was her, it was Victoria Wilson that hired us to kill you.”The moment the gang leader’s trembling voice confirmed Victoria Wilson’s guilt, a shroud of disbelief and horror fell over the gathered crowd.

"I never meant for any of this to happen. I swear, I didn’t hire those men! Please, don’t let them take me away!”Nathan’s gaze was unrelenting. “It’s too late for your pleas, Victoria.""The evidence is clear, and the police are here to enforce that you pay for your crimes!” He glanced at the lead officer, who nodded in understanding.Claire, stood helplessly nearby, her face pale and her eyes filled with tears.

Sebastian, however, remained unmoved, he stood over Nathan with a grin on his bloodied face. "You really do not know when to quit, do you?" Sebastian taunted him. Nathan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. "I will never quit," he said in a hoarse voice. "Not until I’ve destroyed you." Sebastian chuckled darkly, he was amused by Nathan's arrogance. "Destroy me?" he repeated mockinghim. "You can’t even stand properly, Lord Cloud."

She’s going to be okay.” Nathan exhaled deeply, his body sagging with relief. It felt as if a knit in his chest was lossened. “Thank God,” he whispered. His trembling hands moved to his face and he wiped the sweat off his foehead.

The clock was ticking, and Sebastian’s voice echoed in his ears “Choose wisely.”His phone buzzed, jolting him from his thoughts.

Send me the GPS coordinates now!” “Understood, sir. Sending them your way.” Moments later, his phone pinged with the location. His eyes scanned the map, and his heart sank. The car was heading toward a major intersection, not far, but not close enough. Nathan barked orders into the intercom. “Get eyes on that car now! I need a visual. And keep the stadium search going. Do not stop until that bomb is found.” “Yes, Mr. President,” he said swiftly. Nathan gripped the steering as he pushed the car to it's limit. His mind replayed Sebastian’s ultimatum over and over.

Everything is going to be fine. I’ve done what Sebastian asked. This will all be over soon.” Vanessa let out a choked sob. “Nathan… I’m so scared. I can’t—” “Don’t say that,” he interrupted gently but firmly. “You’re the strongest person I know. You’ve been through so much, and you’ve never given up. Don’t give up now.” “But the baby…” she cried, her voice cracking. “I can’t stop thinking about what will happen if—” “Nothing will happen,” Nathan cut in, his voice growing more resolute. “You and our baby will be fine. I swear it. We’ll go home tonight, like every other day. You’ll see Brian, and we’ll all be together again.” Vanessa’s

Nathan froze, his stomach sinking. “You’re out of your mind. That’s billions—” “Precisely,” Sebastian interrupted, his voice sharp. “Half of it, or the bombs go off. One in the stadium where thousands will die, and one under your precious wife’s car. Tick-tock, Mr. President.” Nathan’s free hand clenched into a fist, his nails digging into his palm. “You’re a monster,” he spat, his voice trembling with fury. Sebastian chuckled, “Save the moral outrage. You have thirty minutes to decide.” Nathan’s voice cracked with desperation. “Don’t hurt her. Don’t hurt my wife or my child. I’ll do whatever you want, just leave them out of this.” “Good,” Sebastian said, his voice almost gleeful. “Then start moving, Nathan. Time waits for no man.” The line went dead again.Nathan didn’t waste a second. He turned to his security team, his voice cold and commanding. “Seal off the stadium. No one leaves until every inch is searched. I want bomb squads on the ground now. Move!” His men hes
