Ellen stands up and runs his hand across his face in exasperation. Ellen can’t believe he was tricked again by the same woman. Ellen walks up to his table and angrily grab his name plate in front of the table and throw it on the wall.Vox flinch at Ellen’s swift motion. Vox is ready to accept any punishment from Ellen. Vox couldn’t help but feel guilty, he blames himself for not seeing things thoroughly and let that vicious woman tricked his commander."Damn it!" Ellen cursed, his frustration boiling over because of the two women who kept playing games with him."I'm sorry, Commander. This is on me--"Ellen slammed his fist onto the table, sweeping everything off in a burst of anger. “Why this keeps happening?”“You know what? I don’t care anymore,” Vox flinch at Ellen sudden outburst and he can feel the office heating up once again.‘Sh*t’ Vox curses.“Commander calm down! I will handle this!” Vox immediately said while stopping Ellen from getting out of the door.Vox knew if he let
After meeting with Chairman Alexiou, Rose rushed to her car and drove away. Rose was frustrated and devastated at the same time. She steps right on the gas and passes by the cars that’s in front of her without a care. She wished that the speed of her car would wash away all the guilt and pent-up anger from herself.“Fucking pathetic!” She said to herself, venting her frustration on the steering wheel, pushing, and punching it so hard. Rose remembered again what she and the chairman had discussed at the restaurant.“Continue with the plan. Seduce Ellen, make him fall for you, and then break his heart. Tear apart his marriage with Sophie. That's the only way to repay your debt." the chairman had said with a wicked smile.Rose felt like someone had thrown a bucket of cold water on her. Her face looked pale, and her blood ran cold when the chairman said that to her. “What if I failed again this time?” she mustered up to say. The wicked smile on the chairman's face vanished instantly, an
Ellen glares at Rose and tightens the grip on her hands. Rose screamed in pain when Ellen crushed her bone.“AHHHH!!” Rose screamed in excruciating pain. Ellen stands up with letting go of her wrist and twists her arm to her back. Ellen aggressively grips her hair and makes her look up.“You don’t learn, do you?” Ellen said and shove Rose to the ground. Rose looks up only to meet Ellen’s blazing star. The room felt so heavy and hot all of a sudden and she seemingly can’t breathe properly.It must be Ellen’s power aura that’s working, she thought. Rose's throat went dry and couldn’t even utter a word because of Ellen’s intent to kill demeanour. Rose tried to get away from Ellen, still facing him. She thought that if she even turned her back to him or looked away for a second, she could be swallowed whole by Ellen’s power and kill her in an instant.Unaware, she kept retreating, inadvertently placing her injured wrist on the ground to support her as she moved away from Ellen.“F*CCKK!!”
Sophie is walking through the kitchen and craving a yoghourt drink. Emilia is right beside her opening the fridge. “Did Ellen get home last night?” she asks Emilia. Sophie leans on the counter table while waiting for her drink.Emilia opens the yoghourt drink and passes it to Sophie, “Yes. He just went back to the company right after he got home and took a shower.” Sophie nodded, gulping down the strawberry flavoured drink. As she puts down the drink on the counter, she notices her belly. She rubbed it gently.“Do you think I should lose weight? I’ve been eating non stop for the past couple weeks.” Emilia chuckled and cut some apples while chatting with her.“You don’t need to do that. Ms. Sophie. You look great.” Emilia said while passing her a plate of sliced apples.“But…I feel like I gained weight. Do you really think I look great?” Sophie is starting to get worried. Emilia knows how emotional and anxious first-time mothers are. She read in the book that first time mothers often
Ellen is holding a meeting with the board members of the company when Vox stormed in with a panic in his eyes.“Mr. President!” Vox rushed towards Ellen and whispered, “Sophie is missing,” Ellen immediately stands up from his chair and the whole board members look at him with a confused look.Ellen looks at his board members with a stunned look, “Meeting is adjourned. We will reschedule this once again.” Ellen declared while clenching his jaw. Ellen couldn't contain his anxiety and stormed out of the meeting room, immediately dialling Sophie's phone number. However, each attempt resulted in a failed connection. “Pick up!” Frustration surged through Ellen, his curses whispered under his breath echoing in the hallway. He tried multiple times, his agitation growing with each unsuccessful attempt. Finally, unable to contain his anger any longer, Ellen hurled his phone to the ground, the device shattering with the force of his frustration. "God damn it!" he exclaimed, his mind swirlin
Ellen takes the opportunity to jump down inside the basement before the enemies get to their senses. Ellen takes all the men down with his weapon and clears the room. Vox jumped inside the basement and turned on his flashlight. Vox looks around to locate the light switch and turn it on. The lights turned on and Ellen scanned the whole area but there’s no sign of Sophie anywhere. The basement is empty, no doors or windows.“Fuck, there’s nothing here.” Vox cursed. Vox turns to see Ellen, but he stops himself from approaching him.Ellen is staring at the wall in front of him with dead eyes, his fingers ready to trigger the gun in his hands. The way Ellen looks right now might be mistaken for being composed but only people who know him can tell that Ellen is at his limit now. His patience is wearing thin and when his commander loses all control, he won’t spare any life that’s on his way. He will eliminate everyone on sight. Vox swallowed hard before he radioed every unit, "Any leads or
“Let’s get into the details later and let the doctor check up on you first,” Sophie nodded, and Ellen called the doctor. Everyone rushed inside the room when they heard Sophie is finally awake. Ellen frowned when Emilia and Vox were catching their own breath when they reached Sophie’s room. “What the hell are you two doing?” Ellen gave them a cold stare and Vox stepped back. What Sophie didn’t know is that when she’s been sleeping, everyone is walking on thin ice because Ellen is on edge. He’s worried about Sophie’s safety and blaming himself. His moods are unpredictable, Vox and Emilia couldn’t settle down because Ellen’s been shouting and wrecking the whole mansion because of his mood swings.The doctor approaches Sophie and scans her and her baby. The doctor smiled at Sophie, “As I've said before, you don’t have to worry because she’s completely fine as well as the baby.” He said to Ellen."After you made her drink the tear of the goddess, her regeneration abilities are above hu
The ministers and Ellen’s advisor joined the meeting via hologram and settled into the empty seats in Ellen’s office.“Begin,” Ellen commanded.Emilia rose and placed the papers in front of Ellen and Vox. “Since we couldn’t identify them and unfortunately we couldn’t capture their leader, we traced back to where these people came from,” Emilia started.She activated the hologram and displayed the location where Sophie was abducted. “We traced the ownership of the van, but it was reported stolen two months before the incident,” she reported. “The van was located on the east side. The people who stole the vehicle are people who sell stolen goods in underground markets.”Ellen analysed all Emilia’s report, “Did you manage to trace the buyer of the van?" he inquired, his tone grave.“Yes, Commander. Unfortunately, it was purchased by a third party, and their identity remains unknown. However, we were able to track the van's location from two months ago," Emilia responded.The display swit
