I will be in touch." He approached the area where he had been resting. "Okay, Sir," Mr. Cedar politely bowed to Andrew, carrying James as they prepared to leave the construction site. James, consumed by anger and feeling betrayed by his father, unleashed his frustration. He vehemently questioned his father's loyalty to Andrew. "Who is he, Dad? We shouldn't be loyal to him... Father, he's the one who caused me immense suffering. I had to handle dead bodies... Dead bodies! And now you want him to go unpunished," James expressed his anger, determined to confront Andrew. Mr. Cedar stepped forward, forcefully pulling James back and delivering a resounding slap to his face. "Dad!" James exclaimed, holding his face in pain. "Are you out of your mind? Do you want to get yourself killed?... Sir, I apol

The car was filled with an uncomfortable silence as Andrew focused on the road while Hannah stared out the window, lost in her own thoughts. Andrew could sense Hannah's reluctance to speak. After a few minutes of driving, unable to bear the silence any longer, Hannah finally broke the ice. "Why are you ignoring me?" she asked, as she stared at him as he was still focused on driving and not sparing her a glance. Andrew remained silent, his grip tightening on the steering wheel. He didn't want to answer her, didn't want to go into the complicated emotions swirling within him. Hannah took a deep breath, her voice barely above a whisper. "You can't just pretend like nothing happened, Andrew. We need to talk about this." "What do you expect me to say?" Andrew finally spoke, as he was very bittered, "Congratulations on your engagement?

He glanced down at his now stained red suit."Hmm... You've just ruined a very expensive suit of mine. I hope you have enough money to compensate for it," Andrew remarked, assuming a running position as he swiftly lunged towards Tommy, who stood just a few meters away.

They knew that Andrew was the true boss, and their actions had led to dire consequences. They had indirectly insulted and fought against him, realizing that Andrew's strength far surpassed their own. Injuring him would have placed them in an even worse situation. "I will leave your punishments for Mr. Cedar to handle, but all of you will be responsible for reorganizing this party that you guys have ruined," Andrew stated, folding his hands as he observed them. "Not only that, but you will also have to take care of some trash," Andrew turned to face the bewildered Daniel, who was on the verge of running away.

The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain I Fear No one
Andrew, who had just arrived, greeted the professor with a smile, seemingly unfazed by the situation. He quipped, "I wonder what my humble self has done to merit this invitation," addressing Professor Liam.Professor Liam oversaw the school's conduct bureau, responsible for addressing troublemakers within the school. Those summoned by him were typically associated with some form of wrongdoing on campus."You've crossed the line, so report to the office," Professor Liam stated firmly, his tone serious and unwavering.Whispers spread throughout the school as students commented, "Ha! He thinks he's untouchable... Let's see how he deals with the bureau."Many students harbored animosity towards Andrew due to his exceptional intelligence and wealth, which elevated him to a godlike status in their eyes, making him a target of envy and resentment."I hope it's not what I'm fearing," Hannah, who was nearby, muttered angrily upon witnessing Andrew being called by the professor.Andrew brought
The Hidden Legacy; I Will Rise Through Every Pain I Am The Boss

"Professor, I'm afraid there has been a grave misunderstanding here," Andrew began, his voice calm and measured. " You're making a rather serious accusation against me, and I feel it's only fair that I have the opportunity to address it." Mr. Ellison scoffed, his face flushed with anger. "Don't play games with us, boy. We have witnesses who saw you physically assault my son. You think you can just walk in here and get away with it?" Andrew raised a hand, silencing the irate man. "I believe I can shed some light on the situation." Professor Liam cleared his throat, his expression stern. "Do you expect us to listen to your opinion?" Andrew leaned back in his chair, his gaze fixed on Mr. Ellison. "You see, the so-called 'altercation' that happened, I regret why I didn't beat up your son p

I Love My Child: Abortion Wasn't the Answer
Andrew stood alone in the corridor outside the med bay, his back to the wall, arms folded tightly across his chest.It had been three days since she’d thrown a glass at him. Since she’d screamed that she hated him.Since she’d looked at him like he was a stranger.He hadn’t gone back in. Dr. Yuen had kept him informed—quietly, professionally. The scans were coming in clean. The baby was fine. Hannah was recovering. Physically.Emotionally? That was a different story.Taylor passed him once, pausing with a hesitant glance. “She’s still not speaking to you?”Andrew didn’t answer, Taylor didn’t press. He just gave a short nod and disappeared down the hall.Inside the med bay, Hannah sat curled on the edge of the bed, knees to her chest, gaze locked on the blank wall across from her. Her hair was pulled into a messy bun. Her IV had long been removed, but the tape still clung to her wrist.She hadn’t spoken more than five words to anyone since that night. Only to Dr. Yuen, and only when sh
She Knows
She collapsed in his arms the moment the second attacker hit the floor, Andrew didn’t breathe.For a few seconds, her head was against his chest and her breathe was shallow. He knelt, cradling her gently, brushing damp strands of hair from her forehead with his fingers still red from the fight.“I’ve got you,” he whispered. “You’re alright now. I’m here. He scooped her up, and walked out through the front door, boots crunching glass behind him. By the time he reached the secure exit and loaded her into the black SUV waiting in the alley, his voice was steady again — but his hands trembled.“Drive,” he told the AI. “Take us to fallback safehouse: Pudong sector. Level-three lockdown."He clenched his jaw, teeth grinding silently and that meant one thing: Liu Wenjie had just signed his death certificate.The SUV pulled to a hard stop in front of the secured safehouse. The reinforced doors slid open.Taylor, Leon, and Frederick stood waiting under the pale light of dusk.They barely had
They Don't Take A Break
Hannah was bored of staying at home as she wrapped her scarf tighter as she stepped out of the glass tower, with sunglasses shielding her eyes. She needed fresh air. Space to think. And for once, just feel normal.She was only going down the street. She didn't have a destination..maybe she might go to the Pharmacy, or a tea shop or maybe just walk back. But something felt wrong the moment she crossed the first intersection. The wind hit harder than it should have. "Ahhhh?" She felt pain he her stomach as she clutched her belle hard.The nearest pharmacy was only six blocks a familiar spot she’d passed during her first two days here. The route cut through a narrow café-lined street where. She kept her head down, one hand in her coat pocket.By the time she stepped into the pharmacy, her vision had begun to blur at the edges.The woman at the counter greeted her with a familiar smile. “Morning, Ms. Hannah.”Hannah forced a smile. “Hi.” She handed over her prescription card.The woman
What Did They Do To My Baby?
They sat under high-spectrum scan light, connected through a double-isolated channel into Taylor’s offline decoding rig. Three plasma monitors flickered to life, feeding raw signal patterns into algorithmic scramblers.Taylor’s eyes narrowed as lines of corrupted metadata unraveled in bursts of red and white static.“This is deep-locked military encryption,” he muttered. “But not national. Private-sector stuff. Unregistered… compartmentalized black-tier development.”Andrew stood over his shoulder, arms crossed, jaw tight. “Keep going.”“I’m looking at this code,” Taylor muttered, “but it’s like... Some of this feels familiar. But I don’t remember decrypting it.”Andrew didn’t move.“You did,” he said.Taylor looked up.“Four days ago,” Andrew continued, eyes fixed on the screen. “You hacked into Liu’s restricted medical network. You found a file tagged Carrier 6B. You told me Hannah was already being scanned.”Taylor blinked. “I… said that?”Andrew nodded. “Then you forgot.”Taylor t
Interception
The van rolled quietly through the east industrial corridor of Shanghai, escorted by silence and low fog. Its windows were blacked out. Its GPS route was shielded by encrypted pings feeding directly into Liu Wenjie’s private surveillance channel.To everyone in the command chain, everything was proceeding exactly as it should.But Andrew had built the lie before the route even began.Two Hours Earlier...In a dimly lit garage beneath a fake shell company in Baoshan District, Taylor stood beside an identical replica of the auction van. Same model. Same make. Same tires, even matched wear on the sidewalls.Andrew stood across from him, zipping up a matte-black delivery suit that bore the same credentials as Liu’s logistics personnel.“Thermal sync patch is ready,” Taylor said, holding up a small node. “Once you’re inside the real van, press this against the core. It’ll copy the biometric read pattern in case they try to match it later.”Andrew pulled gloves tight, checked the scanner ri
Operation: Lot Forty Three
Andrew stepped out of the car without a word, coat collar turned up against the wind.The driver didn’t wait. The door shut, and the sedan rolled off without hesitation.He stood at the entrance of what looked like a derelict opera house—abandoned, forgotten, walls choked in vines. But beneath the flaking columns, two men in black suits stood with biometric scanners.He approached slowly. “Invite,” one barked in Mandarin.Andrew handed over a sealed card embossed with a gold crescent. Inside was a chip and nothing else.They scanned it. No names were exchanged.The door opened with a soft hydraulic hiss, and Andrew stepped into a new world.The auction hall was nothing like he expected.Carved deep into a retrofitted bomb shelter, the chamber resembled a museum merged with a theatre. Velvet seats, polished floors, and glass exhibits under halo lights surrounded the central podium.No one spoke loud enough to be heard.Above it all, a massive chandelier shaped like a spinal cord rotated
Experiment
Rain fell slowly, steady rain drops fell across Shanghai skyline, turning the penthouse windows into a blur of lights and water. Andrew stood frozen in the hallway, his hand still gripping the handle like it might anchor him to something steady. But nothing about him felt steady.He had seen not just her bare skin — the soft curve of her shoulder, the flash of skin above her waistband — but the shock in her eyes. The way her arm moved, instinctively covering herself. “You idiot...Damn it, she is still as sexy as ever" he whispered, pressing a palm to his forehead.He leaned against the wall, chest rising and falling faster than it should’ve."You shouldn’t have walked in. You should’ve knocked, called out—anything." He swallowed hard, running a hand down his face.“I’ve seen it all before,” he murmured, almost in defense of himself. “There’s nothing there I haven’t held. Nothing I haven’t kissed.” It was a weak excuse. But it gave him a thread to hold onto. They’d shared a past—eve
What's Going On?
Andrew jolted upright, gasping. His breath came in short, ragged bursts as he scanned the room—dim morning light filtering through gray curtains, the quiet hum of the air vents, and the soft weight of his coat folded on the chair.He was in his room. “But… how?”His eyes darted around, confused. The last thing he remembered was… the rooftop. Hannah. The conversation. And Taylor—Taylor was tracing the KAIROS list.He staggered out of bed, his bare feet brushing the cold floor, tension rippling through every muscle.Something was off.He murmured, “I don’t remember coming back.”He rubbed the side of his neck, checking for signs. No injection point. No bruising. Just a faint pressure behind his eyes, like something had been pressed into his mind and then hastily pulled back.His gaze landed on the phone lying face-down on the desk.He walked over slowly, picking it up.“What was the last thing I did?” he muttered.“Taylor…” The memory came back in pieces. “We were tracking access to Han
KAIROS ACCESS 6B
Liu's penthouse was unusually quiet. Andrew stepped out of the elevator onto the top floor of Liu’s tower, his footsteps muffled against the marble. He turned into a narrow corridor and approached a blank wall panel concealed behind a decorative wood carving. He pressed his palm against the biometric scanner. A soft beep, He stepped inside. It was the surveillance room, on the main display, six monitors cycled silently through camera angles—each one a different section of the penthouse. He tapped a command key, isolating the feed from the lounge. There she was Hannah, she was curled up on the far couch, wrapped in a soft gray blanket. A cup of tea rested untouched on the table beside her. She looked tired. Andrew watched her in silence, she shifted slightly, pushing the blanket off her legs. As she stood, her hand moved instinctively over her lower stomach. He stared as she walked to the kitchen and opened a cabinet, and retrieved a small pill bottle. Two tablets into he
