The restaurant fell silent. Jasmine stepped forward, her voice trembling. "We are the White family. What do you want?"The leader of the soldiers stepped forward, a smirk on his face. "It's simple. Lily White, Rosemary White, Jasmine White—three of you are coming with us."The big family that had been trying to get closer to them suddenly stepped away as if the three of them were carrying a contagious disease.Lily's mother gasped, clutching Lily's arm. "Officer, what is the meaning of this?"“What is your name?” the officer asked.“Rosemary,” she replied.“Then who are Lily and Jasmine?” The soldiers could clearly see the uneasy glances from the other people directed at the three women nearby.“What is all of this about?” Rosemary asked again, her voice filled with anxiety.“We got a report that three of you have been collaborating with Aslan. You are accused of being spies planted by Aslan. Come with us to assist in the investigation, or we will have to force you,” the officer decla
“Ethan!” Lily yelled in panic. “Please help my mother, she’s bleeding!”Kevin, a grizzled, weather-beaten man with a cruel glint in his eye, turned to his soldier. “Henry, is the wound serious?”Henry, a man as cold as the steel he wielded, replied dismissively, “No, I just grazed her thigh. She’s overreacting.”Kevin nodded, his lips curling into a sinister smile. “Go bandage her, and you can have her in the room. Remember you only have an hour.”Henry’s eyes gleamed with perverse delight. “Alright, she’s quite old, but I like older women.”He walked back to the middle of the group and grabbed Rosemary, throwing her over his shoulder with a callous laugh.Rosemary, frail and terrified, struggled weakly against his iron grip, her cries for help falling on deaf ears.“What are you doing?” Lily panicked, her heart pounding in her chest.“I’m going to treat her wound inside the villa,” Henry said, his voice dripping with mockery as he moved with Rosemary, who tried to fight him but to no
About an hour ago, before the soldier kidnapped Lily and the others, Alex was at the hotel room arranging the war strategy with Aslan, when he received a call from Lavinia."Sir, we have hacked into Ethan, Lee, and Nico’s smartphones while they are in jail. Whenever they use their phone, we will hear it.""Then find a way to let the fishes back to ocean," Alex said."We got a report that Peter Gavin is giving Lieutenant Colonel Kevin the task to free them.""Alright, use that chance to let them go."But after a few minutes, Lavinia called him again. "Sir, Ethan just called Lily, and from our tapping, we heard Ethan was going to kill Lily and the family to lure you there and kill them. What should we do?""Give me their location."Lavinia sent the tapping device's GPS coordinates, and Alex quickly prepared himself with his gun.As he walked out of the hotel on the sixth floor, the first floor was a plaza.In that place, he found a completely brand-new big sports motorcycle and appear s
Lieutenant Colonel Kevin felt a splitting headache coming on.He had been thoroughly enjoying his intimate time with Jasmine and was on the very brink of climaxing when Ethan abruptly burst into the room, yelling frantically that someone had hit him and taken Lily away.It was supposed to be just a few more push and pull until he reached orgasm, but the sudden interruption caused Jasmine and him to lose the moment they were searching for an hour.Really a headache and heartache.Ethan also kicked open Henry and Rosemary's room door, finding them in the middle of their own intimate fun.Rosemary glanced at Ethan and asked, "Do you want to join us for a threesome?"Ethan looked at Rosemary's body and gulped, "Maybe later.""Let's do it now," Kevin said eagerly, rushing toward Rosemary, but Ethan quickly grabbed him."This isn't the right time. We need to find out who hit me and took Lily away."Finally, Ethan, Kevin, Jasmine and Rosemary sat around the table, each lost in their own thou

Peter Gavin stood in the luxurious penthouse, the opulent surroundings a stark contrast to the turmoil inside.Glaring at his son, Ethan Gavin, with simmering rage, Peter's eyes reflected the turmoil of a man who had spent years meticulously building an empire now threatened by a single reckless act.His palm connected sharply with Ethan's cheek, the sound echoing in the spacious room, reverberating off the marble walls and high ceilings."You reckless fool. Who gave you the authority to jeopardize our entire operation?" Peter's voice was laced with controlled anger, each word dripping with the weight of his disappointment.Ethan, clutching his stinging cheek, felt his own frustration boiling over. "I wasn't thinking straight. I just wanted Alex gone," he retorted, his voice trembling with emotion.“And for that, you are going to kill the entire White family too?” Peter's question hung in the air.“I was just being emotional,” Ethan muttered, his gaze dropping to the floor, unable to
“You rude Empire barbarian,” Crystal Gavin said, her face blushing red. But after saying that, she regretted it immediately. “I am sorry.”“No worries. All Federation people always call us barbarians from the Empire,” Alex said, eating his serving and even pouring some wine for Crystal. “Don’t worry about it.”Crystal felt deep regret and whispered, “We met for the first time at my engagement banquet. You helped me cancel my engagement with Nicholas Gray. I am truly thankful for that.”“No need to thank me, he tried to kill Ava Sharp, and got what he deserved. I am not doing anything at all.”She took a glass of mineral water on the table, drank it, and continued. “Two hours ago, I secretly heard my father angrily confronting my brother Ethan. He seemed like he wanted to kill you. And I know him well; he will secretly try to do it. So, I came to tell you to get out of this city before my brother finds you.”“You have a kind heart, Crystal, very different from your father and brother,”
"You are totally a coward, not a gentleman!" Nicholas yelled, his voice echoing through the restaurant."What kind of gentleman brings twenty people to bother a couple on a date?" Alex scoffed. “You brought twenty people here. I just have two helpers on my hand. I call this fair."Nicholas's face turned red with anger, his fists clenching at his sides.The twenty men around him shifted uneasily, sensing the brewing conflict. They surely couldn’t face a man with guns."Or if you really want fairness," Alex smiled, a cold, dangerous glint in his eyes, "how about we fight one on one? I'll keep my two helpers."Nicholas knew very well he was just a young, rich man who spent more time with women and at bars than Alex, who had wasted his time on military training.Alex was an ex-soldier, trained to fight. Nicholas knew he would never win that fight. So he turned his anger to Crystal."You bitch, how dare you go on a date with another man!" Nicholas spat, his voice trembling with rage.Alex
