“What is it, young master?” asked Leo on the other line.

“About Penelope and Carter’s upcoming engagement,” answered Damian in a low tone. “As of now, do you have any news about it?”

“Young master Carter wanted to rush the wedding preparations, but the Hellion family wanted to take things meticulously since the Ferremento and Hellion Corporation will merge,” Leo explained.

“Do you know their target wedding date?”

“Three months from now,” Leo replied, his tone lower than usual. “It will be hard for me to investigate it since Young Master Carter was being attentive when I’m around him; Maybe it is because everyone knows his real identity now.”

    Upon hearing those words, Carter raised an eyebrow as he stopped slicing his steak. “What the hell are you talking about?”“Before we can even buy shares, we are already beaten up to it. I heard that the existing shareholders bought additional shares at a discount,” Luther said, clicking his tongue as he looked at Carter again. “Didn’t you hear anything about it?”“No, I didn’t.” Carter took his phone and looked at his email. “I wasn’t notified by it, either. Our plan could have been compromised.”Luther looked away. “Yeah. I told Damian about your conversation with Penelope when I visited the Ferremento Corporation.”“You did what?” In a flash, Carter was already in front of Luther, holding Luther’s collar tightly. “I told you before that Damian can’t know about our plan until we execute it, didn’t I?” he muttered, his voice deeply low so no one could hear it.“W-Well, what can I do? Damian looked surprised when I told him about that, and it was satisfying…” Luther tried to reason out

    Sarah looked at the document Damian gave her and gasped in shock upon seeing what it was. “M-My removal as a member of the board? Are you joking with me right now?” Sarah asked, carefully looking at the documents by flipping them one by one. “I know that you lack work experience, but are you going to show it like this? There is a proper way of removing someone from the board, and this isn’t like this!”Before she could even finish reading the whole document, Sarah threw it on the table—Specifically in front of Damian.But despite being desperate to intimidate Damian, the latter only smirked and held the document.“Of course, I know that this isn’t the proper way, but if everyone knew here that you are taking bribes from the Hellion Corporation to gain crucial information in this company, do you think they would be in opposition to your removal?”Everyone gasped in shock upon hearing Damian’s statement. The tension filled the air, and all members looked at Sarah with dismay and contemp

    “I need help,” Damian said to Leo, as soon as the latter answered the phone. “I’m sure that it was Carter who released that information to the press. This can make the stock prices plummet in an instant, and I just made a move to prevent that from happening.”“We are taking action now, young master. I hired a team to debuff the articles, and I’m also sorting things out with the reporters to take the article down,” Leo informed while instructing his team at the same time. “Hera was also in the process of removing the articles?”“Did you just say, Hera?” Damian asked, his forehead creasing. “She should be in the warehouse. Why would she even help us here?”“Because the articles were intended to reach even the international countries, young master,” answered Leo. “Master Veron was planning to create strategic alliances with the other countries before the accident. Without Hera’s help to clean all the mess, the plan would be destroyed.”“I understand. Just make sure to bring Hera back to

    THE reporters were twice as shocked after hearing Damian’s revelation. Damian smirked because he knew that Carter would also feel the same thing.‘He thought that I would not share something like that with the press, especially since it could affect me, Veron, and the market confidence we have in the company, but I guess he underestimated me that much,’ Damian thought, his teeth clenching. ‘I’m more determined to take him down than hide my past down the grave.’“Torture?” asked one of the reporters, his eyes widening—the same as his colleagues. “Could you share more details about it, Sir Damian?”Damian nodded, smiling. He took a deep breath before telling everyone about his past. “Before, I had a huge scar on my back. It was horrible. Even my father was shocked, and he cried after seeing it.” He laughed sadly, remembering the first time he met Veron. “I couldn’t remember anything about it, but recently, I remembered my past. My back was intentionally burned with a gas lighter.”Ever

    “Someone is looking for you,” Diana informed, her tone angry, as she pointed at Damian. “I never thought that a trash like you still has friends, huh? Are you using your free time to make friends instead of making more money? Is that why you can’t buy the limited-edition Chanel bag I want?”“No, Diana. That is not the case,” Kane answered, shaking his head. “It is just so hard to earn money nowadays, and I… I don’t have friends,” he said, glancing at Damian. “Maybe he just mistook me for someone else—”“No. I’m not mistaken. I’m really looking for you, Kane Hopkins,” Damian interjected as the side of his lips rose.“Hah. And you were still trying to deny it,” Diana scoffed.Damian looked at the angry woman. “I’m here to offer your husband a job to work for me. I was impressed by his sculptures online, so I personally went here to negotiate with him.”“You? You will offer a job to this guy?” Diana asked, looking at Damian from head to toe. “Aren’t you just scamming us? You don’t even l

    Bryan’s mouth widened as he couldn’t believe what he just heard. Damian trusts him? He couldn’t even trust himself, which is why he immediately hid away from the spotlight after the company faced troubles upon their parents’ death.And that is not the only evidence of his cowardness.“I was the one who told Sabrina about Correl’s plan before, but instead of solving it, I begged for her to come back, even if it meant forgetting about all of you.” Bryan forced a laugh. “I don’t want her to be involved with the Ferremento family’s issues. But you know what? If only I had helped her back then, maybe she is still alive…”Damian smiled sadly, shaking his head. “There are also many what-ifs in my mind, too, but thinking about the past can’t do anything right now. We could only focus on the present and stop those two from doing their evil deeds.”As he said those words, Bryan remembered something from his statement earlier. “Wait, did you just mention Carter? Correl’s eldest son?”“Yes. He is

    Cielo left the room afterward, and Helena, who had a disappointed look on her face, did the same thing.Ethan, who was usually silent in times like this, also showed emotions for the first time.His eyes were cold, showing hostility toward Carson, thinking a useless man like him ruined Ava’s life.“Aren’t you going to leave as well? I heard that you are taking care of some work by now,” Ethan asked, referring to the pending proposal in the Medivien Corporation’s subsidiaries. “Come with me. I will accompany you.”“No thank you, Ethan. I need to talk to Carson,” Ava answered, her gaze moving toward her husband. “Can we talk for a minute in private?” she asked, yet she had a commanding tone.But instead of answering, Carson stood up and slammed his hands on the table, causing the fork to fall on the floor, before leaving the dining room without saying a word.“That son of a bitch. Is he just adopted? Because I couldn’t see even a small similarity to the other members of the Ferremento f

    TAKING THE phone from his pocket, Carter called one of his people. “I want you to transfer the house I recently bought to Carson’s name. Do it immediately, and inform me when you are done.”“Yes, Sir,” the person on the other line affirmed.“And one more thing. All the investments I gave to one of Ava Medivien’s subsidiaries… Pull it immediately,” Carter commanded, causing Carson to look at him in shock. “I want you to take care of everything as cleanly as possible. Do you understand?”“I understand, Sir.”Carter ended the call afterward. A few seconds later, he got a message that the house transfer had been processed, and his investments had been pulled out.“I already transferred one of my houses to your name. It was located in the suburbs, so you and Ava would have privacy, and at the same time, it was near the City. Hence, the less travel time,” Carter said, mainly explaining why he bought that house in the first place. “You can ask Ava to evacuate this instant.”“Wait… That fast?

    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

    “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

    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

    “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
