Sreettt"Akkhh!"Rosalind squealed in shock as someone suddenly pulled her arm from behind. She, who was about to enter the room, was shocked to see who it was. "Dylan, what the hell? Why are you being rude to me?""Tell me where you and that bastard hid my mom. I know you two conspired to kidnap her. Tell me where my mom is!" shouted Dylan as he glared at Rosalind. He deliberately strengthened his grip on her wrist with intimidating intent. "Hiding mom?" Rosalind frowned. "What did I do that for? Don't just accuse me.""Don't be evasive. I'm sure the mastermind behind mom's disappearance is Demian, and you're involved too. Right?""What's the proof that I kidnapped mom?"There was a grinding of teeth inside Dylan's mouth as he heard Rosalind's words. This woman .... "Let go!""Tell me where your mother is hidden first. Then I'll let you go," Dylan said refusing to let Rosalind go."You can't be this shameless, Dylan. I really don't know where mom is. And this," Rosalind pointed to
Like a madman, Dylan went to and fro in search of his mother's whereabouts. He was so worried that he didn't even notice the strange attitude in Rosalind. Dylan even forgot about his father, who had just finished surgery. Her mind was in turmoil. "Where are you, Mom," Dylan muttered as he rubbed his face. Frustrated and tired, he kicked a worn-out garbage can not far from him. "I've repeatedly warned you not to act rashly to provoke Demian's emotions, why didn't you listen. Now it's all messed up. I don't even know if you're alive or dead."Earlier, after talking to Rosalind, Dylan had gone straight to the place where his mother was allegedly being held. However, once here, Dylan found no one. Let alone her mother, there were no human traces. This location was far from the city and was abandoned. It seemed a little unlikely that the bastard had hidden her in this place. "I need to contact Rosalind. Only that woman can help me find mom's whereabouts now," Dylan hurriedly reached into
Outside the room, Niel walked back and forth while keeping his eyes on the closed door of his boss's room. It had been thirty minutes since his boss had forced Ms. Rosalind into the room. Niel was worried that something bad had happened in there given the violent argument that had just taken place. "Let's hope Mr. Demian doesn't really punish you Ms.Rosalind. That could worsen Mr.Morgan's condition later," Niel said to himself. I don't know what Rosalind was thinking to tell Dylan about Katty's location. Thinking about this made Niel's head hurt. Already knowing that his boss hated betrayal, the woman had deliberately fed herself. Niel really couldn't understand why anyone would willingly mortgage their own safety for the sake of someone else. (Should I just knock on the door? But what if that makes Mr.Morgan even angrier?) Just as Niel was in a dilemma, the cell phone in his coat pocket rang. He quickly picked it up to see who was calling. "Why is he calling me? Did Mr.Dylan mana
"What's wrong?" Morgan looked at Dylan who had been sitting quietly on the couch. This kid was acting weird. Suddenly coming and then staying silent without any intention of asking about his condition. "If you have something important to say, just say it. I'll help you if I can.""Who am I in your life, Dad?""My son. You and Demian are my proud sons,""Really?"Without hesitation Morgan nodded his head. His gaze stayed on Dylan, noticing the change in expression on his face. There seemed to be a great deal of pent-up anger there, making him wonder what was going on. "Dad, all this time I've always hoped to become Demian's recognized younger brother. But my hopes have always ended in rejection and humiliation. Despite all the chaos and fights that happened between us, I actually love him very much. However, it seems like today will be the final limit for me to let that hope exist in my heart. I give up," Dylan said in a voice that was not too big. His chest felt tight as he delivered
In a five-star restaurant, two men were sitting opposite each other. One of the two men seemed to be lost in reverie and not listening to the other. His gaze was blank. Sadness as well as deep hurt were clearly painted there. "Wow, amazing. This is the only word you deserve from me. Amazing. Incredible. Hahahaha!""Can that data destroy Demian?" Dylan asked softly. This was probably the craziest thing he had ever done since he decided to take Demian's position. Willingly giving away important company data that had given him so much comfort. Demian's ego forced him to go this far. "Mr.Dylan, are you kidding me? With all this data, not only Demian will be destroyed, but your family as well. Although I can't guarantee that all of you will be homeless, at least this data leak is enough to drain almost ninety-six percent of the wealth owned by the Stewart family. Do you understand how much stock affects a family? It's like life.""Yes, I know that.""So, are you absolutely sure you want
With hasty steps, Niel walked into his boss's office clutching a file in his hand. He had a tense look on his face, and both sides of his jaw were tight. Niel was holding back emotions as well as panic over something. "Sir, this is bad news!" Without knocking, Niel opened the door to his boss's room. After that he walked over quickly. "The company's data was leaked to the opposing party and now the shareholders are on their way here. They are demanding that we hold a meeting today.""What? Company data was leaked?"Demian's eyes widened at Niel's report. He immediately threw down the cell phone he was holding and snatched the file from Niel's hand. "How did this happen? Didn't I ask you to take good care of all this important data?""Please forgive my negligence, sir.""What did you say? Sorry?" Demian laughed widely as he glared at Niel who had just apologized. "The situation is already like this how dare you apologize. You think that's the right thing to do? What a jerk you are. Se
"Can you explain why the data was leaked?""Who are you to demand that I explain. Don't be ignorant!" snapped Demian while clenching both fists. He felt like firing a shot into this guy's mouth. So presumptuous and unaware of position. "Do you think having a small stake in B&F Corporation allows you to say what you want and give orders as you please? Of course not. The shares you all have are not much more than my own. So don't try to exert pressure just because a problem like this arises. Staying quiet and waiting is the best decision so that your lives won't be disrupted. Understand?""So you're threatening us?" asked one of the people feeling unacceptable. If they usually felt intimidated, this time they didn't. The arrogant man in front of them could not have dared to act violently because there were many journalists covering the story. So they were safe. "Why not?"Demian's gaze was fixed on the dozens of camera lenses that kept falling on him. He tilted his head, holding back h
The valley of death, let's call it. Dylan sat quietly in the car as he stared at the screen of his cell phone that was constantly on. Since five minutes ago, someone had been calling him. But Dylan had no intention of answering. It was useless."Even if you cry blood, I will not leave this country. I am prepared for all the risks that will occur," Dylan said bitterly. His gaze was sad, helpless. "Niel, you might not be as cruel as Demian. Maybe if I had asked father for help, he would have asked you to tell me where mom was. However, I don't want to make you a traitor in Demian's eyes. It's enough that I sacrifice myself for his ego, you don't!"After years of holding out hope of being considered, Dylan finally came to the decision to end it all. Secretly stealing important data from one of the family's sources of wealth, blinded by too much heartache and disappointment. His mother was being held captive somewhere. As a child, it is only natural that Dylan is determined to use all kin
