Leander had never felt more determined. Determined to find and bring back Emma and Robert’s daughter, he devised a plan and took drastic actions. It had become more than a job to him - now it was about pride and the opportunity to humiliate Rex once more.

Upon his return to the office, he grabbed his phone and called a number given to him by Master Wyatt Crowley. After a few rings, a gruff voice answered.

“Masterson here.”

“Max, it’s Leander.”

There was a brief silence before the voice responded, “Master Leander? It is a surprise. How may I help you?”

Leander wasted no time in explaining the situation, his voice conveying urgency and authority. “I just need your team’s help. I have a high-stakes operation, and I trust no one else but your retired Navy SEALs”

Max Masterson, a former SEAL, had formed a powerful group of ex-military personnel with expertise in private security and covert missions. They are known for their ability to work quickly and keep things confidential.

He let out a loud groan as he stretched his body, feeling the lingering pain and stress from the past few days.He laid back down, hoping to catch more sleep, but his phone rang, startling him. Driven by curiosity and a sense of urgency, he frantically searched for his phone, finally discovering it buried among the bed linens.Noticing the heart emoji, he let out a breath. "Hey, Brianna. How was your night? I suppose you woke me this morning""Sorry for all the calls, but you were MIA," Brianna's voice tinged with apology.Leander's eyebrows shot up. "Really? Missed calls?" he said, his fingers already tapping on the screen to check."Guy, I have something important to discuss, and I'm dead serious," Brianna stated firmly, her words laden with authority and unwavering confidence.Her stern words sent an electric jolt through Leander's heart. His nerves heightened as he wondered what she wanted t

    Driving his Rolls-Royce Ghost Prism, Leander marveled at the glittering neon lights that adorned the city streets at night. Brianna sat beside him, adjusting her earrings, while Lindsey, in the back seat, hummed along to the music playing on the radio."Are you guys ready to have some fun?" Leander asked, glancing at Brianna.She smiled. "Of course. We deserve a break"Lindsey leaned forward, her eyes sparkling. "I can't wait to hit the dance floor"Leander parked the car near a popular outdoor dance spot known for its lively atmosphere and diverse crowd. As they left, they felt the cool night air blend with the warm, rhythmic beats playing from the nearby stereo speakers.Brianna hooked her arm through Leander's.

    Leander, with shaking hands, showed Brianna the message on his phone. His blood ran cold as he stared at the threatening words on the stark screen. ‘Hey Leander, it's Rex,’ it read. ‘I heard the way you insulted my parents and took my certificate. I saw everything. Just remember, your doomsday is coming. The choice is yours: apologize and release the certificates, or bear the consequences. Poisoning Lindsey was just a taste of what I can do. Don't push me any further, or I will make sure you cease to exist’"Rex is becoming more dangerous than I ever could have imagined," Brianna exclaimed, her voice a mix of surprise and worry. "I can't believe he's willing to go as far as threatening someone's life. But, I don't think he's capable of actually doing it"Leander looked at Lindsey, who was still asleep on the bed. A surge of anger and pity overwhelmed him as he replayed the incident in his mind. He turned to Brianna and said, "I think it's time we sever our ties with Rex. He shouldn't

    The room presented Leander with an unexpected surprise - it was perfectly clean when he arrived. Leander scanned the living room and other rooms for Brianna. "Hey, Bri," he snapped, "Every room's clean but it looks... too clean" However, Brianna was mute as she inspected a travel bag for flaws.Leander exclaimed, "Brianna, you are not answering me""Oh, sorry, dear. I—I’m lost. Just daydreaming," Brianna blurted out, her face etched with a hint of apology. Leander sat down on the couch next to her and repeated with a warm smile, "Okay, I was asking why your apartment is so neat?""Oh really?" Brianna smiled, her eyes sparkling mischievously. "Your baby is going soon," she teased. Right after she finished, Leander furrowed his brow, attempting to decipher the meaning behind her words.Leander sprang to his feet, spinning towards her, his curiosity overtaking him. "Wait... wait.

    After leaving Brianna’s residence, Leander made his way to a nearby local restaurant. Fatigued from the day's events, he sank into a seat, trying to rest before confronting Rex's looming threat. He couldn't handle another attack right now.Sitting among passing customers, Leander hurriedly grabbed his phone and messaged Lindsey to ask where she was. There was no response; she was offline.Deciding it was late and his mother awaited him, Leander swiftly opened his contact app and dialed Max Masterson's number.The line clicked, and Leander was taken aback by the unfamiliar, feminine voice on the other end."Hello, am I speaking with Max?" he inquired swiftly.The voice responded, "Sorry, he is not with his phone. What do you want from him?"Frustrated, Leander asserted, "Uh, I just need to speak with him. Tell him I'm Master Leander, okay?"“Okay, hold on please,” the feminine voice boomed, soft yet authoritative.“Max, you have a caller on the line. The person needs your attention. He

    As the evening wound down at the Evans estate, Leander found himself reflecting on how smoothly the dinner had gone. The partnership with the Evans family held tremendous potential, and for the first time in years, the idea of forging alliances felt more natural than adversarial. He was about to leave when Walter extended a hand and stopped him.“Leander, a word before you go?” Walter asked, gesturing toward his study.Curious but composed, Leander nodded. “Of course.”The two entered the dimly lit study, where walls were lined with shelves of leather-bound books. A vintage globe stood by the window, and the scent of aged wood filled the room. Walter closed the door behind them and motioned for Leander to sit in one of the plush chairs by the fireplace.“What’s on your mind?” Leander asked, his tone measured.Walter sat across from him, a serious expression settling over his face. “I need to ask for your discretion, Leander.

    The grand hall of the Thornton estate was resplendent with luxury. Crystal chandeliers sparkled overhead, casting a golden glow on the marble floors, while the walls were adorned with intricate tapestries depicting the family’s storied lineage. It was their annual feast—a celebration of the Thornton legacy, a night to flaunt wealth, power, and influence to the elite of society.Leander stood at the entrance, his sharp suit tailored to perfection. His expression was calm, almost unreadable, but his eyes held a glint of quiet determination. He had been invited, not out of goodwill but as a courtesy and a calculated move by the Thornton family to show they had nothing to fear from him. After all, Leander's recent rise in influence had made him a threat, even to the likes of the Thorntons.As he stepped into the hall, the chatter quieted for a moment. All eyes turned to him. He was an outsider in this circle of established power, yet his presence demanded respect."Leander," Albert Thornt

    Leander stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking out at the skyline. The city below was alive with movement, lights flickering in every direction, but up here, in the quiet of his penthouse, it felt like a different world. He took a slow sip of whiskey, feeling the warmth spread through him. The quiet of the evening was a rare gift, one he appreciated more than he let on.The sound of the door opening behind him brought his attention back to the present. Wyatt walked in, his usual easygoing demeanor at odds with the tension in his posture."What's got you in such a rush?" Leander asked, his voice low but carrying a note of curiosity.Wyatt closed the door softly behind him, walking across the room to join Leander by the windows. "Just came from a meeting with the board. It's about the next quarter." He paused, eyeing the glass in Leander's hand. "You're drinking already?"Leander smirked, taking another sip. "Some days, it feels necessary."Wyatt shook his head but didn't commen

    As the evening stretched into night, the two friends returned to their seats, the conversation flowing easily once more. They discussed upcoming projects, potential collaborations, and their shared vision for the future. “You know,” Wyatt said, swirling the last of his whiskey, “we should do this more often. Just sit back and talk, no agendas or deadlines looming over us.” “I’d like that,” Leander said, a rare note of vulnerability in his voice. “It’s easy to lose sight of what really matters when you’re caught up in the grind.” Wyatt nodded, raising his glass. “To friendship, then. The one thing that’s worth more than all the deals in the world.” Leander clinked his glass against Wyatt’s, the sound ringing out like a promise.The conversation deepened as the night drew on, the city lights sparkling in the background.

    The late afternoon sun cast a golden glow over the expansive terrace of Wyatt’s penthouse. The panoramic view of the city was breathtaking, with skyscrapers reflecting the sun’s brilliance and the streets below teeming with life. Leander leaned back in one of the plush armchairs, a tumbler of whiskey resting on the table in front of him. Across from him, Wyatt lounged in his usual carefree manner, his tie loosened and the top button of his shirt undone.“So,” Wyatt began, swirling the amber liquid in his glass, “how’s Brianna handling your new found glory as a corporate savior?”Leander chuckled, shaking his head. “She’s proud, of course, but she keeps reminding me not to let it get to my head. Says she doesn’t want to live with an ego the size of this penthouse.”Wyatt laughed, the sound rich and genuine. “Smart woman. You’d be insufferable if you started taking yourself too seriously.”“Says the man who had a custom portrait commissioned for his office,” Leander shot back, smirking.
