Carter looked away and chuckled upon hearing Ava’s statement. It was true. Carter had a high IQ, which made him more qualified to be the next heir. His intelligence was beyond expectations.
However, he wanted to lead the Ferremento Mafia more than the company. He could find the thrill and satisfaction in solving problems in the mafia than in acquiring subsidiaries and taking care of stock prices.
“I’m really glad that Dad managed to remove all the leeches in the company…” Ava muttered, her tone laced with disdain.

BACK TO the prison, a few hours after Damian had a conversation with Veron, the nurse discharged him from the clinic. He had many wounds and bruises, but all of them weren’t that critical, so he was able to go back to his cell.There, Damian already accepted to himself that he was afraid. He was afraid of being betrayed by the people he trusted the most. It started when Ava betrayed him for Carson, and now, he could feel that Veron was hiding something from him.However, it wouldn’t stop Damian from pursuing his goals. His number one priority is still to get out of prison.But it was easier said than done.If Damian really wanted to escape the prison legally, he needed to find something that would question the judge’s verdict on his

“BECAUSE I already know your real identity, Damian. You are the hidden heir and our cousin,” Carter said, his eyes gleaming with hidden knowledge. “In times like this, family should always help each other, right?”Damian wasn’t able to answer as he felt stunned. Carter didn’t have any doubts when he spoke those words. He was sure of what he said.‘Did father already tell him about me?’ asked Damian at the back of his mind, his brows furrowing. He looked at Carter intently. ‘Can I really trust him?’Although Carter didn’t show any signs of being an enemy for the past few months, Damian didn’t have a soft spot for him. Carter is nice despite his intimidating demeanor, but he is still Carson’s brother—his greatest rival.“I’m your brother’s enemy. You are no stranger to deceit and manipulation, either,” said Damian as he leaned to the chair and tapped his fingers on the table. “How can I tell if you are telling the truth?”Carter clicked his tongue, looking Damian in the eye. “Interestin

“DID YOU miss me, Damian?” the man in the middle asked, smiling devilishly. “Because I did. There is no day that I’m not thinking of you.”The man in the middle was no other than Derek; the one that Damian stabbed in the arm with a fork, and the well-known mass murderer. It has the same description as Derek’s companions right now, which are his allies—violent and psychotic mass murderers like him.“Aw, should I be flattered?” asked Damian in a sarcastic tone, scanning his eyes onto his surroundings. “I’m glad to see you, too. I thought you died when I stabbed you with a fork. Do you even remember your facial expression when I did that? So hilarious.”Derek’s expression went dark and menacing immediately as soon as he heard Damian’s statement. That wound was severe, and his shoulder was paralyzed for weeks. It was the first time he felt like a loser and pathetic, and as much as it infuriated him, it also made him feel thrilled.Damian, on the other hand, intentionally pissed Derek off

“WHAT IS happening?” Damian couldn’t help but ask Derek, his brows furrowing. “I thought you were going to beat me up after two minutes?”“Yes, and I’m successful in doing it.” The side of Derek’s lips rose as he pointed to his forehead. “You may think that you deceived me and outsmarted me, but you didn’t know that I’m also doing the same thing. And this time, I won.”Damian’s brows furrowed, not understanding anything. Still, he and his allies were attentive. They didn’t know what might happen next. The situation might be more horrible than Derek having backup people to attack them.“If you are planning to kill me, then come near me again,” Damian said, his gaze overwhelming with anger. “Why are you stepping backward now?”“Planning to kill you? Hah.” Derek chuckled and spat on the ground. “You will never get the King of Prison status if you are easy to kill in the first place. You are a tough opponent, not to mention the intelligence you have. That is why the Ferremento Corporation

AS DAMIAN realized that Gerald could also be in danger, he immediately ran toward the laundry room. He plans to look at all the places where someone could beat Gerald up. But he doesn't need to do that anymore. As his gaze moved to the side of the laundry room, he saw Gerald, lying on the ground, almost covered with blood.“Gerald!” Damian exclaimed and ran toward his ally and someone he also treated as a friend. “What happened? Can you…Can you still speak?” he asked, his voice almost cracking.“S-Sir Damian…” Gerald attempted to speak despite feeling weak and helpless. He smiled but it suddenly faded when he coughed blood. “Ah, heck. I think those people destroyed my ribs.”“Don’t speak for now. Just rest,” Damian commanded, holding Gerald in place as the latter was trying to stand up. “I will call someone so they can take you to the hospital—”“No. D-Don’t do that,” Gerald said, holding Damian’s phone which he was holding in his right hand, trying to bring it down. “They… They took

“WHY HERE?” Damian asked, seeing that the prison guards brought him back to his cell. He surveyed his surroundings and saw Daryl and the others in a cell beside his assigned cell. “I thought gang fights are usually punishable by solitary confinement.” “Well, it is, but if you really want solitary confinement, I will tell our team leader about it,” answered the female prison guard. She was about to take her phone but Damian immediately shook his head as a sign of protest. “I’m just asking. Relax,” Damian said, trying to lighten up the prison officer’s serious mood. “I just find it odd, but of course, I like it here better than that small room. At least, my comrades are also here.” His glance moved again to Daryl and saw that they already had bandages on their faces and bodies—meaning that they were brought to the clinic first before they were imprisoned in the cell. It somehow made Damian feel better. But his heart raced again upon seeing Ryder, who was now awake. Ryder’s cheek was

“RIGHT,” Damian snapped out of his thoughts upon remembering the crumpled paper Gerald had given him before they parted ways. He looked at Noel first, confirming if he was still sleeping. Once he was sure that Noel wouldn’t wake up anytime by now, he pulled the paper out of his pocket. His heart sank again upon seeing Gerald’s blood stained with it, but he shook his head afterward. ‘Being guilty wouldn’t do anything about this situation. Get a grip, Damian,’ he reprimanded himself before he unfolded the paper. Damian started reading it, and his eyes widened upon seeing tons of prison officers’ and prisoners’ names on it. Some of them were the people Damian didn’t expect to be his enemy because they looked kind in the first place. Well, except for one. “As expected,” Damian muttered, disappointed but not surprised, upon seeing the name of that woman who held him on the right shoulder earlier. His gaze moved downward, and he was almost done reading the names on the list. However,

IN A snap, Damian kicked Noel’s wrist, causing him to let go of the knife. Noel was about to take it again, but as he bent halfway, Damian kicked the knife far away from them, and he slammed Noel to the ground.“Fuck!” Noal grimaced as his back hurt so badly because of the impact. He was also slightly astounded because Damian moved faster than him, although they had a slight body build difference.Noel is shorter and has a slimmer physique, while Damian is quite muscular and tall. People like Damian would have more strength than speed, but Damian was able to take him down before he even knew it.“Dang—Shit!” Noel groaned in pain when Damian gripped him tightly on the neck using his left hand and punched him in the face using his right hand.“That is for ruining my face,” Damian said and landed a punch on Noel’s cheek again. “That is for your attempt to kill me. And this is just a hunch, but are you someone who beat up Gerald as well?”“What if I am—”Damian punched Noel in the face ag

Epilogue: The Last Retaliation
THE hostage-taking Carter did in the warehouse spread in various news channels like wildfire. Everyone was shocked because of his sudden escape from prison, making the residents afraid for their safety, knowing that the management wasn’t doing their job properly to monitor the prisoners.With that, the warden and his apprentices, who were also under Carter’s authority, were fired from their jobs. They were replaced by a management who cared about their citizens, removing the patronage system in the prison, and bringing back justice at the same time.Due to Carter’s crimes being in high intensity, he was transferred to a high-security prison. Carter could only laugh as his mind was still in the past, thinking how rich and powerful he was, even though that wasn’t the case now.Carter had already gone insane, but it was only the beginning of his suffering.“At last, you finally arrived,” Catelyn, who was waiting in Carter’s cell, greeted. “Did you miss me?”“What are you doing here?” Cart

Chapter 336: Let's End This Now
THE lights were flickering, adding tension in the air, as Damian entered the warehouse alone. He doesn’t have any guns or other weapons with him, nor he didn’t call anyone like Carter instructed.Damian was on high alert as he continued walking when suddenly, two men wearing full black clothes started to approach him with their guns.‘Fuck,’ cursed Damian at the back of his mind, seeing how helpless he was right now.Especially after seeing Ava tied to the chair, his mouth gagged, while Catela is sleeping in the crib beside her.Despite the situation, he couldn’t give up. Damian needed to save himself along with Ava and Catela and end this fight with Carter so it wouldn’t repeat.The two men tied Damian’s hands and feet to the chair, but unlike Ava, they didn’t gag him.“It is so unusual to see how obedient you are. I never thought you could do it,” Carter, who appeared from the shadows, smirked upon seeing Damian being helpless. “That’s right. They will always be safe as long as you

Chapter 335: Everything Will Be Alright
“That was not enough for all the bullshit you did to me before. But for now, let’s call it even," Damian said.Carson only shook his head as he wiped the blood on his lips before leaving the house. And the only thing that was running through his mind was how strong Damian’s punch was… before until now.THE NEXT morning, Carson didn’t just confess what he did to the board members, but he conducted a press conference to publicly apologize to Damian. He knew that Damian deserved to clear his name and regain his reputation, and although his public apology wasn’t enough, he still did it to show his sincerity.“Starting today, Carson Ferremento is now terminated as the CEO, and will face two years of suspension because of him ruining the Ferremento Corporation’s reputation,” Piper announced, her tone colder than usual. “The position will go back to Damian Giovanni Ferremento.”Carson smiled sadly, but he knew he needed to accept the consequences of his actions.However, since Damian had a

“That bastard. He told you that even though you have a husband?” Carson asked, his teeth gritting.“Well, this is just an arranged marriage, and he knows it.” Ava shrugged. “To be honest, I would marry a man like him although he isn’t the richest, than stay with a puppet like you, who only knows how to follow someone else—”“Here,” Carson interjected, giving Ava the signed papers. “I will let you take Catela because I need to deal with something, but I will take her away from you once I'm done.”“Hah. As if I will let you do that.” Ava scoffed and rolled her eyes. “Thank you for this, Carson. Catela will benefit so much from this.”And as if Ava was waiting for this to happen, when she went again to their bedroom to take Catela, she already had her luggage with her and was talking to someone.“Yes, he already signed the divorce paper, and I’m all set…” Ava said, smiling from ear to ear. “Oh, your bodyguard is outside the house already? Alright. I will let him in.”Ignoring Carson, Ava

Chapter 333: History Repeats Itself
After Carter went out of the house unnoticed, that was the only time Carson could breathe properly. He didn’t even realize he was suppressing his breath because of fear.‘Is that really the brother I used to be with ever since I was a child?’ Carson thought, his heart racing, as he leaned into a tree. ‘We are family. Why would he threaten me like that? Is the company and the organization more important to him than me?’And upon asking himself that question, Carson got his answer. Carter wouldn’t mind killing everyone who would be a hindrance to his plans, and he is not an exemption.His gaze went to the house—Something he had because of Carter. Everything he had was him, not giving Carson any chance to carve out his own identity. He was only known for his surname, and for all his careless actions when he was in teenager days.The only thing he had that wasn’t connected with Carter was Dollie, whom he took for granted, and now his family; Ava, his wife, and Catela, their child.“Ava,”

Realizing that Damian needs him right now, Veron took his phone and called a number. It was someone he thought he would never talk with again.“Veron,” Charlie Wiles, the CEO of the Legion Mercenaries, called. “It has been a long time, huh? What do you need this time?”“I have to ask you for a favor,” Veron replied.“A favor?” Charlie raised an eyebrow. “If it is about our operations, I’m sorry, but I need to decline. You know that we can’t take clients in other countries other than Colossia, right?”“I know that. You are not taking me as a dumb person, aren’t you?” Veron shot back, his voice laced with irritation now. “I need someone I trust to do this task for me, and I’m willing to pay any amount you want for it.”“Any amount, huh? Talking to rich people is different.” Charlie chuckled on the other line, yet he became serious afterward. “But alright, deal. What is it that you want me to do?”“I want you to find Correl Ferremento’s location and kill him,” Veron commanded, his tone s

“Carson,” Damian called as his eyes darkened in anger. “It is you, isn’t it?”“If you are asking about the new CEO of this company, yes. It’s me,” Carson answered, smirking, as he placed the documents he brought to the table. “Why? Are you surprised that a person who was once a happy-go-lucky like me would be chosen to replace you?”“Why would I be surprised if you planned everything for this to happen?” Damian shot back, the annoyance evident in his tone. “Seeing you in front of me now just strengthens my hunch. It was you who messed up with the data. How could you?”Carson’s smirk widened. He didn’t answer. Instead, he stood proudly in the middle with his arms folded.“I’m not here because of the shitty things you accuse me of, but because I have given the board of directors a proposal strategy that you can’t provide.” Carson slid the document in front of Damian. “Here. Look at this.”Damian didn’t move at first, but a few seconds later, he took the folder and looked at its contents

Chapter 330: The New CEO
“Young master,” James, whom Damian called, answered on the other line. “Young master Carson is still doing his old routine; working in his office the whole day and going home afterward.”“How certain are you?” Damian asked.James’ brows furrowed, but he still answered in a polite tone, “I’m always monitoring him, young master. I didn’t even let him out of my sight.”“I know, but something might have happened that slipped your notice,” Damian said, his tone low and serious. “The Ferremento Corporation is in chaos right now, and I’m sure Carson is involved with it. I need you to think carefully.”James obliged. The tip of his brows pressed harder on each other upon recalling the surveillance, and his lips widened as he remembered something.“There was one incident. A few days ago, Miss Ava Medivien bumped into me and caused a commotion. For a moment, I lost sight of young master Carson’s office,” confessed James. “But it was only for a few seconds.”“And that is the only amount of time t
