~The next day~

Rachael had a business plan with an associate and went out early. After a lengthy meeting, she was breathing a sigh of relief when her phone rang.

"We are from Z Police Station. We have your son in custody..."

Son in custody?

Without a second thought, Rachael gave her driver the order to go to the Z police station. Edward was in the police station? The words echoed in her ears, making her feel disoriented.

She dialed Edward's number. The call did not, however, go through. This morning, Edward went out with his friends early on the condition that he would get home before his tutor arrived.

Upon getting to the police station, she dashed inside, her mind in disarray. "Where's my son? Arresting my son—what on earth do you people think you are doing? Are you aware of who he is? Do you know?!" She barked. "Where's your chief?"

A roughly thirty-year-old man made his way over to Rachael. "Mrs. Hemsworth. We sincerely apologize for contacting you. The caller, who is new to our p

  • The End of Old Master Carter

    *Some Hours Ago*Jeff made his way through the grand corridors of the Carter mansion. He was unaffected even by the servants' murmurs and the lavish surroundings. “He reminds me a little bit of Miss Rebecca!” “Yes, that is the boy from the news! Poor boy, his Father betrayed his mother.”“He's really Miss Rebecca Son. I overheard Young Master Marcus becoming enraged over it.”Ignoring their words, Jeff was led into a vast study, its walls lined with ancient books and portraits of stern-faced Old Master Carter. He scheduled a direct appointment with the man who had been bothering him with emails for the past week after the competition.At the far end of the room sat the Old Master of the Carter Family, his presence demanding respect. Jeff sensed the intentions in the air, despite his enigmatic expression. With an expressionless face, Jeff sat down in front of the Old Master. He knew this meeting would be a turning point.

    *Some minutes earlier*“Sir, the articles concerning Miss Rebecca Carter… I tracked down the individual. She is Jeff's friend, and I discovered she is Melissa's sister,” said the voice on the other end.Victor's brow furrowed, anger, curiosity, and confusion flashing across his face. “Who is Melissa?” he demanded.With a note of nervousness in his voice, the caller answered, “The girl we used for the Professor's video.” Victor's frown deepened. “Isn't she dead?”After a moment of hesitation, the caller said, “Sir, I believe something is wrong. These are not just random occurrences. Jeff knows everything.”Victor's grip on the phone tightened, his knuckles turning white. Implications whizzed through his mind. How could Jeff have known? And what did he know exactly? .“Send me more details,” Victor ordered, his voice cold and controlled.The caller swallowed audibly. “Yes, Sir. I'll get right on it.”After hanging up the phone, Victor stood for a while, gazing at his reflection in the

  • You got me

    In front of the large TV screen, the woman slowly wiped her tears as she stared at the boy who was being applauded on TV. The only source of light in the room was the light rays coming from the television screen. The woman shook beneath her garments, tears streaming down her face, even though she was covered in a cloth. “Are you shedding tears?” As she heard the voice, she wiped the tears off her face, her eyes turning cold like she was not the one crying some seconds ago. She got up to go into the other room after unwrapping herself from the blanket. “You remain as stubborn as a mule, even after years have passed. When will you come to the realization that there is no going back? I have already triumphed.” The man who had just arrived spoke coldly, his voice full of mockery and sarcasm. The woman stopped in her tracks, her trembling hands beside her. “Don't be too sure of yourself.” “Just tell me everything and hand over everything. I will let them go!” The man said, w

    With a sardonic smile curling up on his lips, Marcus said, "Looks like our little Jeff stole someone else's model." Marcus observed something both familiar and different about Jeff's model before they even began to demonstrate their abilities after creating it. It looked too familiar that it struck up a memory. The model does not belong to Jeff at all. The game's rules state that cheating will result in elimination from the competition. Because Marcus was not sure, he informed one of his people who were also working in the software organization. The individual informed his other team as soon as he received the notification, and an investigation was carried out while the model was being tested. Following the match, in which Jeff emerged victorious, it was disclosed that Jeff had been excluded for engaging in dishonesty and utilizing an unlicensed model. "Anyone caught cheating would lose their chance to continue playing the game, per the rules. Jeff Hemsworth is found guilty of

After the news about Rebecca Carter being the ex-fiancee of Duane Malfoy went viral, Jeff who was previously confirmed as the son of Duane received a lot of attention.They want to know if this young genius was really a Carter descendant.As Jeff was guided into the game room, his eyes landed on Professor Paul who looked sterner and angrier. However, Jeff's gaze only lasted for a few seconds before he made his way to the room. Since the publications' release, Professor Paul had been phoning Jeff's number nonstop, but Jeff had purposefully declined the calls in order to spend more time with Dave looking into the orphanage. Dave and Atlas had indeed been living in the orphanage when they were kids and more serious,

  • What next?

    As he completed the last procedures of his cooperation with the Grador's Group, Duane sat in his modern office, the light from his computer screen softly illuminating his features. With a smile on his face, his fingers moved fluidly over the keyboard. This was it, the result of months of arduous labor and compromise. "Sir, something seems to be happening." When his assistant's voice broke through his reverie, Duane looked up and met his wide, terrified assistant's gaze. He could not quite pinpoint the source of the tension he felt in the air.Since Victor Grador gave his approval for their partnership, their stocks have been steadily rising, and happily, there has been no discussion about Jeff becoming the Malfoy Group heir.Even though Jeff was the driving force behind the collaboration, Duane continued to think that Jeff would not have given a damn about the Malfoy Group if he had not been forced.Since Jeff was not present to compare him to, he has been extremely happy these las

  • Have I ever been wrong?

    Jeff could see Dave talking to one girl, who was laughing like a little child, from a distance. Even from that distance, Dave drew attention, and he even wore something that covered most of his head. Jeff wondered why anyone would be interested in that stupid boy.“You are here” Dave let out a low laugh upon seeing Jeff, he turned to the girl and said. “Nice meeting you Lisa, see you soon.” “You too.” As Lisa turned to leave, the smile on Dave's face faltered completely, like it was never there.“Girls” he mumbled under his breath. He had literally entertained the girl to avoid suspicion from others because he was dressed as someone who was about to rob a bank.“I didn't know you could talk to girls, you look bitter” Jeff made a comment, a smile tugging his lips. “I wonder what that girl sees in you.” “I wonder what Jamie saw in you” Dave laughed it off. “Elias was literally in love with her, and she chose you!”At the mention of Elias, Jeff let out a small laugh.He had not hear

    "Why did you go to his house alone?! You should have informed any one of us before leaving!" A loud, enraged voice resounded throughout the room as Professor Paul spoke.Jeff, standing before his uncle, faced his fury. "I needed to verify something," he said casually, maintaining his composure in spite of the tense situation.Had he not visited the Grador's Mansion today, he would not have been aware of somethings. To be honest, Jeff did not intend to go alone, but after Atlas's remarks, he was left with no other option.Professor Paul's frustration simmered as he continued, "You're starting to act on your own, Jeff. This isn't safe."Apart from Jeff, there are still a lot of people who are victims of Victor's shady act. Including Professor Paul himself. He had stepped down from the Dean Position after Victor found out he was going to ruin all he had built for years.If anything, Paul knew how devious that man could be. The man who made him left his workplace disguised as retiring. Vi
