A bullet took off, almost hitting the target's body. The sniper was aiming for Edward as his target. Luckily, he quickly dodged and the bullet did not hurt his body.
Vincent immediately approached Edward. Edward's face looked pale after the incident happened to him, just now.
"Did someone just shoot me?" Edward was shocked. He couldn't believe it. But Vincent's words were true.
There was a stray bullet that almost pierced Edward's right arm.
"I told you, be careful, don't let your guard down!" Vincent reminded him again. Edmund and Claudia were equally surprised.
"That was... Edward will be shot by those people, right?" Claudia was immediately frightened. Her hands and feet were shaking as she witnessed the incident with Edward.
Edward's heart was racing. He would have almost lost his life if Vincent had not prevented it immediately.
You bastard! Vincent snorted in annoyance. This must all be the Black Knight's doing, h

Milea gave up after hearing the doctor's explanation about Mr. Eduardo's illness, which had reached the final stage. She lost her spirit now. Luckily, when she was down, Vincent was there to accompany her."Milea," Vincent said softly. He calmed Milea's heart who was already desperate to hear the doctor's decision."Vin, I don't wanna lose my dad," Milea whined with tears in her eyes."I don't wanna lose Mr. Eduardo either. Calm down, Milea. I'll always be by your side. Let's handle this together," Vincent consoled.Vincent brought Milea to sit on a long chair after coming out of the doctor's room."I'll buy you a drink. Would you like a soft drink or instant coffee?" Vincent offered."I don't want anything," Milea refused."Oh, okay."Vincent understood perfectly that Milea was not in the mood at the moment. However, his fiancée had not eaten anything since earlier.Vincent was worried that Milea's body would drop. Then collapse. He didn't want that to happen to Milea."I'll buy you
The Billionaire Revenge Amateur Hackers
Edward continues to push Vincent to tell him about the banned organisation, Black Knight. He hopes to get as much information as possible about the organisation that threatens his life from Vincent. Unfortunately, Vincent was silent when Edward forced him to talk."I can't tell you," Vincent said. Edward was rather disappointed to hear that."You bastard!" Edward snorted in annoyance. Because his plan to get information from Vincent was not realised."You'd better find out about them yourself. I can't tell," Vincent suggested.Vincent walked away leaving Edward still standing there confused.What should Edward do now? How can he find out about the movements of the banned organisation? He knew that his skills were not as good as Vincent's. The one who knew about the Black Knight first.Vincent continued to walk away from Edward. No matter how hard Edward tried to force Vincent to talk, it was in vain. Vincent couldn't say it. Because it violates the rules.If Vincent divulged the Black
The Billionaire Revenge Almost Failed a Date
Vincent went to check again. If it was true that Edward was messing with him again, it would be the end of his history. He'd be furious if a fake hacker tried to hack into his company's security system.'That guy is looking to die on purpose,' Vincent grumbled."Damn it! What does he want?" Vincent snorted in annoyance. Just messing with people.Before leaving to pick up Milea at her house, Vincent checked his company's personal data in secret with Alvin. He wanted to make sure that no other hackers could break into his company's security system.Five minutes. Ten minutes. By the time thirty minutes had passed, Vincent hadn't finished blocking the hacker's account. He was already a bit agitated. Every minute he glanced at his watch. Milea must have been waiting for him for a long time."Sir, look at that!" Alvin pointed at the computer screen Vincent was using."Damn it! He's trying to play me on purpose. Well, if that's what he wants, I'll gladly oblige him."Vincent followed the mov
The Billionaire Revenge A Very Stressful Night
"Vin, how is this? I'm so scared," Milea panicked. She hid behind Vincent's back.Vincent didn't know what was going on down there either. Could it be a power failure? Or the engine suddenly stalled. Or broken. Or what?Vincent couldn't guess right now. What was clear was that both of them were panicking at the moment. They were at the top of the Ferris wheel.DOOORRR!There was an explosion down there."What was that, Vin?" Milea is getting scared." It's nothing," Vincent consoled her again.Just look up into the sky! Vincent distracted Milea. There were a lot of fireworks scattered up there. Maybe it's the sound of fireworks exploding, Vincent thought."I told you earlier. I don't wanna go on this ride, Vin. Now that it's like this, how can we get off?" Milea was upset. She was blaming Vincent now.Vincent too, why did he have to take Milea on a date to a night theme park? On a ride that was quite dangerous too. In a situation like this, what should have been romantic became a stre
The Billionaire Revenge Save Vincent, Please!
Vincent faintly heard a voice calling him from down there. It seemed to be Alvin's voice, he shouted."ALVIN!" Vincent shouted back while waving his hand."Vin, are you sure it's Alvin? Maybe it's the bad guy who made that gunshot," Milea wondered. She also told Vincent to be careful."I think that's Alvin's voice. His voice is very distinctive. Screeching," Vincent assured Milea. This time, Milea would just believe him."You're right, Vin. Alvin's voice is weird," Milea agreed.Not long after, the sirens of fire trucks approached the Ferris wheel. They mobilized the firefighters to help Vincent and Milea who were trapped on the ride.Victor assigned the firefighters to rescue Milea first. After that, Vincent. Alvin frowned.Why not do it at the same time? There's a SAR team too, right? Alvin suggested.For him, Vincent's safety was more important. If something happened to Vincent, Alvin wouldn't be able to get paid on time.Ah, right. What a cheapskate! Victor understood what Alvin m
The Billionaire Revenge Milea Is In Danger
Vincent was rushed to the hospital. The situation was getting more and more urgent."Hurry up! Hurry!" the medics got out of the ambulance, took Vincent out of the car and brought him into the emergency room.Arriving at the emergency room, several resident doctors immediately took Vincent to the operating room. Milea, Victor, and Alvin could only wait for him in the waiting room. They were anxious and panicked over the incident that happened to Vincent today.Milea was seen pacing back and forth in front of Victor and Alvin."Milea, sit down!" Victor said. His head was spinning seeing Milea like a hot iron going back and forth in front of him."How can I sit down? I'm really worried about Vin right now," Milea huffed as she reasoned.Victor was surprised to see Milea's reaction. He couldn't accept that Milea was angry with him like that.However, Victor was the only one of Vincent's family here. Everyone was very sensitive about this incident. Including Alvin."Stop it already! You c
The Billionaire Revenge Vincent Is Awake
"What do you want to know about that damned organization?" asked Milea suddenly.Oops! Looks like Milea slipped up. She had just sworn about the Black Knight. Of course that caught Edward's attention at the moment."I thought you knew about the organization from Vin, right?" guessed Edward firmly.Milea fumbled and blundered in front of Edward."That organization is very dangerous. That's all I know from Vin. The rest, I don't know," Milea denied."Don't lie, Milea! Vin must have told you everything. Tell me everything you know about them!" Edward urged. He became impatient waiting for Milea to continue her sentence.When Milea was in distress, Alvin immediately came to see her in the hospital room. While bringing her the food that had been ordered earlier."Miss Milea," Alvin approached. Edward hurriedly hid the penknife and put it back into his black shirt pocket.Alvin looked suspiciously at Edward as the man who had threatened Milea turned around, facing him. Edward smiled somewha
The Billionaire Revenge Edward Better Go
"Asshole!" muttered Vincent. After hearing the stupid question that had just come out of his rival Edward's mouth.How rude! Milea and Victor cursed. Both of them shook their heads.Alvin also chuckled in response to Edward's attitude. What got into that guy?They couldn't figure it out. How could Edward ask directly about the Black Knight in front of everyone to Vincent who had just woken up. It seemed like the outrageous Edward had lost his sense of shame. He asked without a sinful face to Vincent who had just woken up after undergoing major surgery."Is it appropriate for you to ask such a pushy question to Vincent who has just recovered?" Milea quipped. While looking at him suspiciously."That's because you don't know anything about that damned organization. If only you knew, maybe I wouldn't be hunting Vin like I am right now," Edward retorted.Milea looked away. How naive, Milea grumbled while bending her face."Why are you guys looking at me with those weird looks too? Was I wr

Lorenzo's Betrayal
“Don't be rash, Vin!” Ryuga warned.“I know. I'm not that stupid,” Vincent retorted.“So, what's your plan?” asked Ryuga.“I don't know where Kazuto got all this information? Didn't we protect the security system?” Vincent was confused.“Do you suspect someone like I think right now?” Ryuga smiled somewhat sarcastically in response to Vincent's conclusion.“I don't know. I'm not sure,” replied Vincent who was still shrouded in indecision.***At the Ryuujin-kai base, now housed in Nakamura's residence, tension filled the room as Vincent, Nakamura, Valeria, and the other clan leaders eyed Lorenzo suspiciously. Information that should have been confidential had instead leaked into Kazuto's hands, and there was only one possibility: there was a traitor among them.“Lorenzo...” Nakamura squinted, his voice sharp as a dagger ready to stab the Italian mafia man. “What exactly are you hiding from us?”Lorenzo remained calm, but there was tension in his jaw. “I don't know what you're talking
Kazuto's Overthrow Strategy
“We're changing our strategy. It looks like a trap,” Vincent concluded. After he saw Milea being held hostage by Kazuto.“In that case, we return to the headquarters at my residence. Don't act rashly since Milea is in Kazuto's hands right now.” Nakamura agreed. He quickly turned right and returned to the base.Inside the room was dimly lit, illuminated only by the bluish glow of a large computer screen transmitting a digital map of the harbour. The subtle hum of the electronics combined with the sound of Lorenzo's fingers tapping on the keyboard. The smell of stale coffee and metal filled the air around them, adding to the sense of tension that hung between them.Vincent stood with both hands resting on the desk, his jaw hardened as he stared at the screen. His eyes were sharp, full of anxiety that he tried to hide.“How's it going, Vin?” asked Ryuga.“We don't have much time,” Vincent said finally, his voice that of someone under stress. “Kazuto knows we're after him, and now he has
Creating Hell for Kazuto
“Welcome, Vin,” greeted Lorenzo, who was now leaning on the table with a sly smile of satisfaction. “You really know how to make a scene, Vin.”Next to him, Valeria crossed her legs with a small grin. “I was expecting you to come, Vin. You're... too stubborn,” the mafia lady remarked.Vincent snorted, no longer surprised to see them all here. Lorenzo, Valeria, and Nakamura. The three figures who had been a thorn in his side, it turned out they were all in cahoots behind the scenes.Nakamura, who was standing by the window, finally spoke up. “I knew you'd find this place, Vin.” He turned around, his gaze sharp. “Do you miss your wife that much?”Vincent took a deep breath before answering, “I don't care about your games. I don't care about what you've been planning all along. But there is one enemy we must conquer.”The room fell silent for an instant. “And I know you all also want to see Kazuto fall.”Among the three people, only Lorenzo responded to Vincent's conversation. It was cer
Counterattack from the Allies
In an underground bunker hidden in the city centre, Vincent stood still. He always found a place for himself to hide from both Lorenzo and the Ryuujin-kai.“I was their target from the start. Damn it!” Vincent threw everything around him in annoyance.The blue light of the computer screens around him flickered, clearly drawing the image on his tense face. A message that had just appeared on the screen was still glowing, the letters feeling like a blow that shattered his wall of faith. Behind it was a special symbol that reminded him of a name. Kazuto.[Give up, Vin!]“That symbol is ....”His hands gripped the table firmly, his breathing short and rather heavy. No way. Kazuto was already dead. He saw for himself the explosion that destroyed the laboratory where they were studying all those years ago. However, if Kazuto was really alive...The sound of footsteps quickly approached Vincent. His assistant appeared from behind the door with a serious expression.“Sir, we have a problem. T
Back to Starting Point
“Ryuga, I can't run anymore,” Milea complained. Her chest still felt tight.“Does your breathing hurt?” Ryuga panicked after seeing his cousin's pale face. He knew full well Milea was still sick. The shortness of breath caused by the poisonous gas made her weak and unable to run.“I'll get help,” said Ryuga, who immediately called someone.Blood was pouring from Ryuga's temple, but he didn't care. His breathing was ragged, his left hand still tightly grasping the arm of Milea who was now breathlessly running by his side. Behind them, the roar of footsteps was getting closer, the sound of shouting and the whizzing of bullets echoed in the dark hallway they were passing through.“Looks like we still have some running to do, Milea! Are you up to it?” asked Ryuga before pulling her faster.Milea was still clutching around her chest, barely able to catch her breath. Her body was already very tired, her heart racing in panic from the pursuit of Lorenzo's men. However, she knew that they had
Shadows of the Past
“Vin, where are you?” Milea woke up from her sleep. She looked around, there was no one in the hospital room.Milea began to feel uncomfortable in the hospital. Her every move was being closely monitored, and the nurses who came into her room felt unfamiliar, as if they weren't just ordinary medical personnel. Her instincts told her there was danger lurking.“Who are they?” muttered Milea. She had to be wary of strangers.“Excuse me, is my husband here?” she asked the nurse.“No, Madam,” the nurse replied.Milea didn't ask any more questions. She knew Vincent was probably very busy out there. She would wait for him, if necessary she would stay up late into the night.That night, when the hospital seemed quiet, a man snuck into her room. Milea was startled, about to scream, but he quickly put his hand over her mouth.“Calm down, Milea. I'm here to help you,” he whispered.Milea looked at him warily. “Ryuga?”The man smiled faintly. “Yes. Your cousin came to rescue you.”Milea smiled sa
Fragile Enemy Alliances
“Hold on, we'll be at the hospital soon,” Vincent told Milea, who had just woken up from her stupor. Milea's body condition was very weak due to inhaling too much poisonous gas.Milea's breathing was laboured. “Vin, hurry up!”Vincent stepped deeply on the accelerator, his car travelling faster than ever before, cutting through the city streets that seemed indifferent to his panic. On the side seat, Milea was still breathing heavily, her fingers gripping Vincent's arm with all the strength she had left.“Vin ....” Her breathing was heavy, her eyes were wide, and her face looked deathly pale. The poisonous gas that Milea had inhaled had made her body seem to rebel.“We're almost there!” Vincent shouted, his voice full of anxiety.Up ahead, the red light was already on, but Vincent didn't care. The horns of other cars roared angrily, but to him only one thing mattered: his wife had to be safe. He turned the car roughly, the wheels screeching when he finally reached the hospital grounds.
The Secret Trail in Italy
The next day, Vincent embarks on a dangerous journey to Italy. He wants to uncover the truth that has been hidden behind the long conflict involving his father and Lorenzo Piero.There, Vincent meets a secretive old friend of his father's, an elderly man named Alessandro Moretti. He had obtained the man's personal data from a system he had been investigating. With a sharp look in his eyes, Alessandro warns Vincent that Lorenzo is just a puppet in a bigger game.“Be careful, son!” Alessandro admonished. “There is someone behind the scenes, someone more dangerous than you can imagine,” the man added again, this time in a low voice.Vincent frowned. “Who is that person, Sir?” he wondered, curious.Alessandro sighed rather heavily. “They call him Kurokami, the shadow of Ryuujin-kai. No one knows his face, but every mess, every murder, always ends with his name whispered in the attack.”“Kurokami?” repeated Vincent with a confused murmur. ‘Does it have something to do with Nakamura?’“Yes,
Welcome to the End Game
“Who are they and what do they have to do with me, with all this?” Vincent was confused. He was overwhelmed as he pulled out the threads that connected the names of the mafia on the whiteboard.“Milea, hang on a little longer,” said Vincent, who was still fiddling with his laptop.Vincent's phone rang. He glanced at it. Lorenzo's name was calling out on his screen. Shit! He thought.“Vin, where are you?” asked Lorenzo on the other line.Vincent said nothing, not wanting to tell Lorenzo where he was. He also changed the subject.“Tell your ex-wife, if she hurts my wife... I'll kill her,” Vincent threatened.“What do you mean?” Lorenzo had no idea what Vincent was talking about.“Valeria Del Piero, she's... your ex-wife, right?” said Vincent.Lorenzo was silent for a long time. Finally, Vincent hung up first. Now, Vincent knew Lorenzo's only weakness.***“Shit!” Milea complained. She held her breath as she stood in the corner of the dimly lit room. Her heart was racing, holding somethi
