“What?” Damian asked, his brows furrowing.

“Ambush, young master! It’s an ambush! Y-You need to get out of that place now—Ugh!” Andrew spits blood as he exclaims those words.

Someone had just stabbed him at the waist, and it suddenly made him lose all his senses. It was hard for him to talk but he needed to warn everyone. He is assigned for the lookout, after all.

“Is there a problem?” Leo asked, his tone confused.

“We need to get out of here!” Damian exclaimed as the panic rushed throughout his body. “This is a trap! Someone planned to ambush us—"

Before Damian could even finish his sentence, something exploded near their location, followed by tons of men approaching them. All of them were wearing bulletproof vests, and they had huge guns on their hands, which were pointed at Damian.

“Find cover!” Leo instructed as the opponents started firing at them, which they obliged immediately.

Fortunately, they were wearing bulletproof vests, and there were some places where they could hide fo

    “You saw some of my people peeking at this building. It wasn’t your plan to be here, but as soon as you knew that I was coming here, you sent all these people to capture me. Am I right?” Damian added.“Hah, who do you think you are?” Louie laughed sarcastically as he looked at Damian from head to toe. “You’re nothing but an arrogant shithead. What makes you think I won’t kill you?”“If you’re going to kill me, then why are you prolonging it?” Damian asked, raising a brow. “Because I’m right. The command you received states that you can’t kill me.”Damian already had a hunch about it when they were ambushed from the start. If their goal was to eliminate them all, those people wouldn’t even let them hide behind a wall. Instead, they were waiting for Damian to come out.‘Fuck it,’ said Louie at the back of his mind. ‘He was right. Young master Luther instructed us to get Damian alive and even unscathed. I can’t even give him a hard punch.’“Let’s say that you’re right…” Louie bent forwar

    EVERYONE was shocked to see how great of a sharpshooter Damian is. They knew he lost his memory since Veron informed them about it, but why did Damian know how to use a gun? “I told you. Always unlike the safety pin,” Damian said, pointing at the gun he was holding. “And remain calm at all times as it will help you to think clearly,” he added in a tone like he was always repeating those things before.Upon realizing that, Damian stopped. No. It’s impossible. He couldn’t even remember having a conversation with Henry, nor holding a gun in his entire life.But that is not all. Damian was also shocked that he still felt calm even after killing someone. He thought he would be nervous and shiver to death, but no. It felt like it was something he does on a normal basis.“Fuck…” Damian muttered as he let go of the gun, not believing what he had done earlier.Leo managed to catch it with his right hand before it finally fell to the floor. “You may not remember your past, but I think your bod

    Suddenly, Damian’s mind traveled to an abandoned warehouse. It was dark, cold, and eerie. In the middle, Damian was tied to a chair, and his whole body couldn't move. In front of him were three guys wearing all-black suits, and all of them had guns on their waists.“W-Where am I?” Damian asked, his voice slightly trembling because of the pain and the coldness consuming his body since he was shirtless. “W-Who are you?”“You don’t need to know.”Behind the three men in suits, who looked like bodyguards, a man in his expensive clothing appeared. Damian couldn’t see his face since he wore a face mask, but his overall aura screams dominance and authority.“The only thing you need to know is that you’ll die today, and I’ll strip your identity out of you.” The man approached Damian, and one of the guards gave him two white gloves. Damian wondered what that was for, so his gaze traveled around the room. At the side, he saw the different types of things used for physical torture; Thumb cuffs,

    “PARDON, Master?” Leo asked as his eyes widened.“Luther didn’t want to kill Freya for the sake of revenge. He wanted to gain information about Damian. I’m sure of it, and I’m also sure that he knew everyone would try to find Freya.” Veron looked Leo in the eye, his gaze intimidating. “He wanted Damian.” Veron would have easily had that person killed if just someone else, but if it was someone from the Hellion Family, it would be hard for Veron to make a move. The Ferremento and Hellion families had been competitors for a long time, but they are also alliances for some things. Sooner or later, they will have mergers and acquisitions, too. Veron needed to be careful.“I want you to investigate how much Luther knows about Damian, and if he already knew Damian’s real identity,” Veron commanded. “Also make sure that someone is monitoring Damian no matter where he goes, and keep it a secret from my son. I don’t want him to worry about this.”“Yes, Master.” Leo nodded.“I just hope Luther

    “Hah. Is he trying to find Freya? After what she did to all of them?” Luther laughed sarcastically. “Stupid fool, but it is good that we can use his stupidity against him. Did he think that a poor man like him would win against someone rich and influential like me?”“I guess being poor is just his facade, young master…” Romeo replied, his voice low as he was doubting whether he would say what he heard earlier or not.Luther raised an eyebrow. “What do you mean?”“Someone called Damian ‘young master,’ and I heard it loud and clear.”“Young master? Of what? Trash?” asked Luther in a mocking tone, thinking that Romeo was just messing up with him.

    “WHO AGAIN?” Carson asked, his brows furrowing.“You heard me. Loud and clear.” Luther smirked, amused by Carson’s reaction. He could hear the shock even on the phone. “The name rang a bell, didn't it? I heard he was the one who created a scene at your engagement party, too.”“Fucking bastard,” Carson muttered and clenched his teeth. He was referring to Luther and Damian at the same time. “How did you know that prick?”“Didn't you hear the news about the Glamorous Glitters Company? The Hellion Corporation's subsidiary that I managed for the meantime?”“Hmmm. And what about it?” Carson replied nonchalantly as he took the water bottle to the side to drink.“I recently filed for bankruptcy.”Hearing those words, Carson choked in shock. “What the fuck? Why?”“You don't know? Seriously, dude?” Luther asked, his brows furrowing. “What are you even doing not to know about that big news?”“It may be big news, but I just don't care about you at all,” said Carson in a teasing tone, but he was s

    A FEW days later, Damian already got his well-needed rest. He didn’t go to work as Veron instructed, but his work wasn’t piled up. Kevin delegated all his tasks to everyone, and since all employees at the operations department were grateful to Damian, they took the tasks wholeheartedly.“Don’t worry about your work here, okay? You can even take a leave for two more days since we’re not that busy in the department,” said Kevin on the other line. “Focus on your rest. We can’t afford to lose someone as skilled and talented as you.”Hearing those words, Damian smiled subtly. “Alright. I am in the hospital now, preparing myself for another check-up. Thank you for considering my situation, Sir Kevin. I appreciate it a lot.”“No problem.” Kevin shook his head, smiling. “It should be us who should thank you for your hard work.” He looked at the time, and saw that it is almost one o’clock in the evening. “I should go back to work now. You should do your errands, too.”Kevin ended the call aft

    SUDDENLY, Damian’s eyes widened, and his breathing became ragged instantly. He wasn’t able to continue with his plan as his feet wouldn’t even move.“W-Who are you?” Damian asked, slightly stammering, as his body quivered.But the man didn’t answer. Instead, he suddenly ran to the door behind him—the way toward the staircase.Damian was astounded for a second before he finally snapped back to his senses. “Shit!”He ran toward the door and looked at the two staircases on either side of him. One was going up, and the other was going down. In the middle of those staircases, Damian saw the white face mask the doctor was wearing earlier, and a piece of brown fabric.‘Is that another face mask for disguise?’ Damian thought as he walked toward the direction where the face masks were on the ground.Suddenly, someone opened the door, revealing Thaliana, whose expression was laced with worry.“Young master,” Thaliana called, her hands resting on her knees while slightly bent, desperate to catc

    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
