Jack Sullivan had just about enough nonsense for one night.

He was halfway through the theater doors when Emma suddenly yanked him back, her small hands clutching his sleeve like a lifeline.

“Oh, you two aren’t going anywhere.”

That voice.

That damn annoying voice.

Jack exhaled sharply, already regretting turning around.

Sure enough, Sanaya Garvos stood there, her smirk so smug it could punch a hole through the atmosphere.

The half-drunk heiress tilted her wine glass, watching the golden liquid swirl lazily before taking another sip.

She then raised a perfectly manicured hand and snapped her fingers.

A man in a flashy white suit appeared beside her, grinning like an idiot.

Jack had never seen a man so eager to be a human footstool before.

Sanaya gestured at him dramatically.

“This is Elos, the owner of this cinema. And also… my man for the day.”

Elos nodded quickly, licking his lips like a pathetic puppy.

“That’s right! Miss Sanaya has my full loyalty tonight!”

Jack glanced at him. Th

    Sanaya Garvos was a menace.She wasn’t just petty—she was childishly, ridiculously, outrageously petty.All because she didn’t want Emma Brooks to watch a movie.And the worst part? She was enjoying every second of it.She leaned lazily against a velvet chair in the cinema lobby, her wine glass swaying in her hand, eyes glinting with pure amusement.“Oh, Emma, darling, you really should just accept your loss.” She sighed dramatically. “The cinemas belong to me for the next three days. That means you’ll have to find another hobby. Knitting, maybe?”Emma, shaking with frustration, clenched her fists.Her pride refused to let her back down.“Fine! If you can rent them, so can I!” she snapped, turning to Elos. “I’ll offer ten million to book every cinema in the city!”The entire room fell silent.Even Elos, the greedy little rat of a cinema owner, choked on air.This was no longer a childish fight—this was a full-on battle of money.Sanaya, still grinning, flicked her hair.“Ten million?

    The atmosphere in the cinema lobby had completely shifted.Just moments ago, Sanaya Garvos had been smugly boasting about her power, blocking Emma Brooks from watching a simple movie.Now?She stood frozen in disbelief, watching as Charlotte Richard—one of the most powerful women in the city—completely ignored her and sided with Jack Sullivan.It was the first time in her life that Sanaya felt like she had been slapped in public.And it was only about to get worse.Charlotte barely spared Sanaya or Elos a glance as she turned toward Jack, her tone strict but not unkind.“Jack, I’d handle this myself, but I have a business meeting. I’ll leave my secretary to deal with it.”Jack shrugged, completely indifferent.“Go ahead. I don’t need help dealing with small-time idiots, but I’ll humor you.”Charlotte smirked slightly before nodding toward a sharp-dressed woman who had just entered the room.Jessica Lane.Charlotte’s personal secretary.The moment Jessica stepped forward, the air grew

    “Oh, and one last thing—Elos, you’re fired. Pack up and get out.”Elos looked like he was about to cry.The cinema lobby, once filled with chaos and arrogance, had finally calmed down.Elos had been kicked out like garbage. Sanaya had stormed off in humiliation. And Jack Sullivan?He was finally the proud new owner of the damn cinema.Jessica Lane, Charlotte Richard’s secretary, adjusted her glasses and turned toward Jack with her usual calm, professional tone.“Miss Richard will be driving home tonight.”The words were simple, but the weight behind them was anything but.Jack noticed how several heads turned, their ears practically twitching with curiosity.Emma, standing beside him, froze mid-celebration, blinking in confusion.Sanaya, who was supposedly gone, had actually lingered just outside the doors, eavesdropping.Jack narrowed his eyes slightly.Driving home?That phrasing was way too deliberate.And sure enough, it had the effect Jessica clearly wanted.Murmurs broke out.“W

    The theater was supposed to be quiet.Jack Sullivan had finally settled into his seat, Emma Brooks beside him, munching on popcorn like a happy child.After all the drama—Elos getting kicked out, Sanaya throwing her tantrum, Charlotte making a grand exit—Jack had finally thought he could enjoy a peaceful movie.But peace?It never lasted long in his life.Just as the film reached its first intense scene, a strange noise echoed through the theater.A low, rhythmic tapping.Jack’s ears twitched.Tap. Tap. Tap.It wasn’t part of the movie.Emma, completely oblivious, shoved another handful of popcorn in her mouth.Then—BANG. BANG. BANG.The sound grew louder, as if something was being pounded against the walls of the screening hall.Jack sighed, already knowing what was coming.“Stay here.”Emma, mid-chew, turned to him, confused.“Huh? What’s wrong?”Jack stood up, his expression bored but sharp.“Trouble.”Emma groaned, already annoyed.“Oh, come on! Can’t these idiots wait until the

    The tension in the theater had turned suffocating, but Jack Sullivan was as calm as ever.Warrior Ravol cracked his neck, eyes gleaming with battle lust.“Two options,” he growled, voice sharp and deep. “Die here in front of your little girlfriend… or choose somewhere more public. I’ll make it look like an accident. You pick the view.”Jack raised a brow. “Public? Please. I just don’t want your corpse staining my new floors.”Ravol’s smirk twitched. “Ah, so you want the rooftop. Easier to toss you off.”“Or easier for me to throw you off,” Jack said flatly, already walking away.Ravol laughed like Jack had told the best joke of the year. “Cocky till the end, huh?”Emma rushed after Jack, panic rising in her chest. “Jack, don’t go with him alone!”Jack didn’t even glance back. “He’s not the first guy who’s threatened to kill me. Won’t be the last.”Upstairs, the rooftop stretched wide beneath the moonlight. The wind whipped through Ravol’s long shirt as he rolled his shoulders like he

    The rooftop air was sharp with tension. Jack Sullivan stood alone, facing Warrior Ravol—forty years old, arrogant, and built like a war monument. His long martial shirt fluttered in the wind, and the smug glint in his eye screamed: I’ve never lost, and I won’t start now.Jack didn’t look impressed. If anything, he looked mildly annoyed.Ravol cracked his knuckles. “I gave you a chance to pick where you’d die. You chose the rooftop. Convenient. Easier to toss your body off and call it a tragic fall.”Jack’s voice was calm, bored. “Actually, I just didn’t want your blood ruining my new cinema floors. I own the place now. Try to keep up.”Behind them, Emma Brooks chewed her nails nervously, eyes darting between the two like a referee who didn’t sign up for this game.Suddenly—boots echoed from the rooftop stairs.“Stop!” a woman’s voice rang out.All heads turned.Julia Yates appeared, her figure silhouetted against the city lights. She moved with grace but urgency, her expression one of

    Ravol groaned against the rooftop railing, wheezing for air like a broken accordion. His pride had been shattered, and his bones weren’t far behind.Jack Sullivan turned away, calm as ever, cracking his neck like he’d just finished warming up for the real match.Emma, still stunned, muttered, “That was brutal…”Maxvier, munching popcorn from who-knew-where, raised a brow. “Brutal? That was charity. Jack could’ve folded him into a suitcase.”Julia Yates nodded solemnly. “He should be thanking Jack for leaving him alive.”“Too late for that,” came a new voice—low, cold, and dripping with malice.Everyone turned sharply.From the rooftop stairwell emerged a tall, lean figure cloaked in black, moving with ghost-like silence. His eyes gleamed like razors under the moonlight, and the moment he stepped into view, even the wind seemed to hold its breath.The Ghost.Emma’s throat tightened. “Wait… is that—?”Julia’s face went pale. “The Ghost…”Jack’s brows lifted slightly. He hadn’t seen this

    The rooftop was dead silent. Not even the wind dared to whisper.Jack Sullivan stood still, eyes locked with The Ghost’s cold, dead gaze. Emma clung to his sleeve, heart racing, while Maxvier hovered at the edge like a lazy vulture pretending not to be concerned.But it was Rawon, silently watching from the nearby rooftop, who first noticed something chilling in The Ghost’s posture.And then—The Ghost finally spoke. Calm. Eerie. Confident.“Jack, before I kill you, I want you to understand something…”Jack raised an eyebrow. “Is this where you give me a villain monologue?”“No,” The Ghost replied. “It’s where I explain why you don’t stand a chance.”He took a step forward. His voice sharpened like a blade.“I’ve been training in seclusion for four years… under Master Steel.”The name hit like a gunshot.Emma blinked. “Who?”Julia froze. “Wait. Did he just say… Master Steel?”Even Maxvier, previously unimpressed, coughed on his own popcorn. “Okay… that’s a twist.”And Rawon?His face

    The Grand Imperial Hotel’s tasting event was in full swing, with waiters carrying trays of rare wine and whispers of billion-dollar deals floating through the air. In the inner hall, only the elites moved freely. Jack Sullivan wasn’t bothered. He wasn’t here for their approval.But the name they kept calling him?That was starting to grind.“Oh, look who it is,” sneered a familiar, shrill voice. “The insane’s son-in-law actually showed up.”Jack didn’t flinch. He didn’t need to look to know it was Ashley’s mother, decked out in enough fake jewels to outshine a chandelier. Her voice alone could curdle wine.“I’m honestly impressed,” she continued, sipping her overpriced drink. “I figured you’d be under a bridge somewhere. Or maybe barking for food.”Jack glanced at her calmly. “You sound bitter. Let me guess—another investment failed?”She scoffed. “You’re the failure, Jack. Everyone knows it. Married the village lunatic and still walking around pretending you matter.”Village lunatic,

    Jack Sullivan stepped through the gilded glass doors of the Grand Imperial Hotel with measured grace, his composed demeanor masking the calculations behind his eyes. The prestigious tasting event hummed with activity—pharmaceutical luminaries exchanged pleasantries in the outer hall, but Jack knew the inner chamber housed the true treasures.Ancient herbs. Spiritual roots. Medicinal pills valued beyond most fortunes.Jack navigated through the assembly with quiet purpose, acknowledging no one. His thoughts drifted inward as he moved.My previous life ended because I pursued power too hastily, he reflected, his gaze steady and focused. When Kafer struck me down, he destroyed more than my physical form. Now I have this second chance—to build methodically, with wisdom and patience.He subtly flexed his fingers, appreciating how energy circulated through his meridians with newfound clarity and precision.A body honed for combat. A soul tempered for greatness. No more shortcuts—only master

    At a secluded private lounge near the Hayley estate, two of the city’s most powerful men sipped aged liquor and wore thin expressions.Head Lord Hayley swirled his drink and muttered, “So, we both bowed, and he didn’t even blink.”Head Lord Garvos chuckled. “He treated us like street performers trying to impress a god.”Hayley exhaled, leaning back. “You think he wants to take Texas City?”Garvos nodded slowly. “He doesn’t want it. But he could take it.”Hayley’s eyes narrowed. “But to become Commander—officially—he needs recognition from all major forces. The finance guilds, the commercial banks, the energy conglomerates… they won't hand power to someone just because he throws a punch.”Garvos smirked. “Then let them wait until he throws a building.”Hayley paused, tapping his glass. “What about Emma?”Garvos looked amused. “You still think your daughter stands a chance?”“She’s stubborn,” Hayley replied. “So is he. That’s a start.”Meanwhile, Jack Sullivan pulled into the driveway o

    As the last embers of the Carter estate burned behind him, Jack Sullivan stepped onto the main road, Rose walking silently at his side like a shadow with a blade.But this time, someone was waiting for him.A small entourage stood at the edge of the Carter grounds—Tarvol Hayley, Rawon, Julia, and two older men who radiated authority.Head Lord Hayley, owner of the Hayley family, stood with sharp eyes and a stiff back.Beside him was Head Lord Garvos, the iron-blooded patriarch of the Garvos family, who rarely appeared in public unless something massive had shifted.Jack didn’t pause his step.Tarvol stepped forward first, a rare look of humility crossing his face. “Jack. I know it doesn’t mean much now, but thank you. For not turning that rooftop into my grave.”Jack gave him a bland glance. “Still might. Haven’t decided yet.”Tarvol laughed nervously, then stepped back.Head Lord Garvos spoke next, voice steady. “Mr. Sullivan.”Jack stopped.“I’ve come to apologize for my son’s… unwi

    The Carter family manor, once a proud symbol of wealth and influence in Texas City, stood in eerie silence. The wind carried the scent of scorched earth and fear.Jack Sullivan arrived like a quiet storm, stepping out of a matte black SUV. Rose followed close behind, silent, eyes sharp and unblinking.Charles Carter was already at the gates, hobbling on one crutch, his leg still bandaged from the last “lesson” he received. His remaining bodyguards—three tall men in suits—tightened formation as Jack approached.Jack didn’t even look at them. Instead, he lifted his phone and gave a single command.“Start the demolition.”A split second later, **BOOM—**a thunderous explosion rocked the estate.From every corner of the property, heavy machinery rolled in. Bulldozers, cranes, and explosive charges placed in advance lit up the air. Mansions crumbled. Pools exploded. Statues snapped like toys.Emma, watching via drone feed miles away, gasped. “He’s really tearing down the entire estate…”Tar

    The rooftop lights flickered above the tense crowd. Wind howled around the building, but the true storm stood in the form of a beast—Big-Headed Draco, the brutal enforcer for the Carter family.He cracked his knuckles, a grin stretching across his scarred face.“Three moves,” he growled. “That’s all I’ll need. Same number I used to kill that whining brat, Yemin.”Jack Sullivan just stood there, hands in his pockets.“Three moves?” Jack echoed. “That’s generous. You planning to take a nap mid-fight?”Draco sneered. “You got jokes, huh? Let’s see if you still smile when I peel your ribs open.”Maxvier leaned to Rawon and whispered, “Wow. Somebody skipped leg day and personality class.”Draco turned, glaring. “Say that again, pretty boy.”Maxvier smirked. “No thanks. I don’t fight gorillas with brain damage.”Even Emma winced. “Can we not poke the giant murder-beast, please?”But Jack stepped forward, his gaze never leaving Draco.“You think you're scary because you broke a few necks and
