Sophia looked around the empty penthouse, her heart heavy with worry. Alex had been unreachable for two days and hadn't come home.

Their wedding was only four days away. Usually, she would see his smiling face waiting for her at home, dinner prepared, or he would show up at her office to share lunch.

But lately, there had been nothing.

Her parents and family had started to interfere, their doubts and accusations weighing on her mind.

"Sophia, that man is ashamed he can't hold the grandest wedding, so he ran away!" her mother had yelled two days ago.

Yesterday, her father brought Victoria to pressure Sophia into signing divorce papers.

"Why are you suddenly on their side?" Sophia asked Victoria, her voice trembling. "Aren't you my best friend? You promised to help me."

Victoria looked apologetically at Sophia. "I want to tell you a secret. After you know it, you will surely change your mind."

"What?" Sophia's confusion deepened.

"Jerry Deneuve is not a Jerry Deneuve!" Victoria exclaime

    Grandma Deneuve looked down at Sophia, her eyes filled with satisfaction. "You finally came here. I told you that man was no good for you, but you didn't believe me. Now he's run away from you. How much money did he steal from you already?""Alex didn't steal any money from me!" Sophia replied, her voice trembling with disbelief. How could they reach that kind of thinking?"Too ashamed to admit it?" Grandma Deneuve sneered. "You finally taste your own mistake."All of Sophia's family laughed at her, their mocking laughter filling the room and echoing off the walls.Andrew Deneuve, the first uncle, added, "Sophia, Jerry has become the new CEO of the Deneuve business. He's checked the account books and found that when you were the CEO, you stole money from our family business. I believe the money you stole was used to rent this wedding venue.""What kind of bullshit are you talking about?" Sophia's emotions peaked, her face flushed with anger. "I always kept the books straight when I wa

    "Take your time, Miss Sophia," the old man said gently. "You have our support, and we will ensure your wishes are respected."Sophia took a deep breath, summoning her courage. "This wedding venue will remain as planned for Alex and me. Envira and Preston will have to find another place."Grandma Deneuve's face turned red with fury, but she remained silent, realizing that any further protest would be futile since the hotel staff was with Sophia.The old man nodded approvingly. "Very well, Miss Sophia. We will ensure everything goes smoothly for your wedding."“We will meet at the court,” Grandma Deneuve said, her voice trembling with rage. “We will file a complaint that you stole money from the Deneuve company when you were Deneuve’s CEO. Reporters will have the whole story about you on the news.”“I want to see how your invited guests feel when they see you accused of theft. No one will step foot in your wedding.”Sophia's eyes widened with disbelief."Envira, Preston, your wedding ve

    When all command on the chaos. All the aircraft connected to Alexander.“Good morning, all soldiers, here is your military supreme leader, Alexander,” said the voice.“Starting now, I will take control of all ships, including those under the command of my brother Christopher's soldiers.”“This mission is a very secret mission carried out by our double agents, Ivan Romanov and Peter Roskov, who have secretly become Drakonia Federation spies and, at the same time, our double agents.”Ivan and Peter were in their aircraft control room, shocked as Alexander said that. They were totally not double agents. They were Drakonia spies.“Ivan Romanov and Peter Roskov have bravely given the Drakonia Federation information about our civil war and led their soldiers to the mountain near Kirov city, where our people have already set a trap for them. And now, with the capital city empty...”Alexander looked at everyone. “To give them honor, Ivan Romanov and Peter Roskov, along with some other nobles,

    Alexander stood in the main control room of the command aircraft, connected to three thousand other aircraft. About a hundred military generals and leaders of various ships were also linked to him."All of you," Alexander began, his voice steady and commanding, "we will only have two days to control everything in the Drakonia Federation. I will assign each of you important missions to handle."He continued, "First group, take 600 ships and control all Drakonia system communications. We will cut off every available communication inside Drakonia so they become blind and deaf. Control all available communications and even the satellites.""Yes, sir," responded the generals assigned to the task as they began to depart."Second group, I will give you 1,000 ships to control all the military bases of Drakonia. Launch a rapid assault on major military bases to seize weaponry, intelligence, and establish a strategic foothold."Alexander sent them the coordinates of the military bases they had

    Since there was no agreement reached by both parties, the court session had to proceed.The judge and the lawyers began exchanging questions and answers.Sophia had never felt more humiliated than she did at that moment, as the lawyers kept pressing her with questions.“How dare you say Alex paid around 5 to 10 million dollars for the wedding venue when he doesn't even have a job?” one of the lawyers demanded.“He really paid it without taking any of my money,” Sophia answered honestly.The lawyer then called a witness. “This is Merly, who was married to Alex for almost a year. Miss Merly, do you think your ex-husband could afford 5 million dollars?”“Five million dollars?” Merly laughed mockingly. “He is the poorest man I ever knew. Not only has he never brought home 5,000 dollars, but this woman is also completely crazy for claiming he could afford 5 million dollars.”Next, the lawyer called Ugor to the stand.“That poor man? His monthly wage is only 500 dollars. Where do you think

    "Sophia, wait," Victoria called out as she ran to Sophia, grabbing her hand. "Please don’t sign it that. They are your family."With red, tear-filled eyes, Sophia looked back at Victoria. "Vic, you are my best friend, and I have to tell you one thing. Jerry is clearly not the one you're searching for. He is just a Deneuve, not part of the Royal family. You have been mistaken."For a moment, Victoria looked confused. She reassured herself again, "Jerry is part of the royal family in incognito. Even though there are many unclear details about his identity, after a year of marriage, everything will be clear.""Sophia, I believe in my instincts. Jerry is the man I've been searching for.""You will regret it later, Victoria," Sophia replied weakly, turning back to sign the document."You are the one who will regret it if you sign that paper." Victoria replied."Sophia! We are the family that fed you, took care of you since you were small. How can you sign to cut off from the family when yo

    One day before.Lucas Gotti and his twenty men arrived at Blackwood Airport. They made their way to the Gotti building, where several people were cleaning up the place.The police had just released the building that day, so there was still a lot of work to be done.“Have you found them?” Lucas asked his people.“The Deneuve family is having a family event tomorrow at the Blackwood Court. All of the Deneuve family will be there,” one of his men replied.“Then prepare everything. We will get them tomorrow,” Lucas ordered.***Back to now.After the court session, Andrew was driving the car happily. A wide smile stretched across his face as he thought about the Deneuve family marrying into the Cavendish family, the second wealthiest family in the capital.“Jerry is going to hug a big tree, and it will bring our family to the next level,” he mused to himself.“Jerry,” he called to his son. “About your marriage with Victoria, have you set the date? The sooner, the better. How about next we

    Victoria glared angrily at Lucas. "You edited the video, right? There is no way Jerry will poison me.""No," Lucas replied. "I have no reason to edit it. He really put the poison in your drink. Why don't you just believe it?""Because... Because," Victoria's face turned pale, and many ideas started running through her mind as she weakly said, "Because he is from the royal family." She said it without knowing if it was true anymore.She didn't believe it anymore.Lucas laughed hard. "Very funny. How did you come to that conclusion?"He took out a handgun and pointed it at Jerry's head. "Are you from the royal family?"Jerry quickly shook his head. "Pretending to be from the royal family can be punished by death. I wouldn't dare to say I'm from the royal family. I am from Deneuve.""Are you sure?" Lucas asked again, trying to catch him in a mistake."My father is here, just ask him. If he is from the royal family, then I am." Jerry faced his father. "Father, are you from the royal famil

    Alex hurried toward the front door, but before he could even walk down the steps, Ophelia stormed inside, trailed furiously by her mother, Michelle, and her father, Justin.The trio burst into the manor as if it were their own, arrogance dripping from their every move—clearly, this wasn't their first invasion.Instantly, the manor filled with blistering tension, a tempest charged with scorn and disdain.Michelle’s shrill voice sliced through the silence, her words dripping venom." Ophelia you better divorce your husband. Alex Leonhard is worthless sack of shame! He is a stain upon our family name. Divorce him, Ophelia—now! Or your grandmother will toss you straight out of the D’Arcy nobility like garbage!"Ophelia stood unmoved, her voice cool, iron beneath velvet, "If that's her choice, I'll simply live here with Alex.

    Baron Leonhard once ruled over five villages, but now, two had already deserted him—broken by famine, crushed under unbearable taxes, fleeing for their lives.The remaining three clung desperately together, their souls shredded thin, teetering on the brink of collapse.Misfortune had etched itself into their bones, and they cursed the day they were born into this forsaken land.Two years ago, life was tough but tolerable; they were poor but not starving, scraping by day to day, always hoping tomorrow might offer something better.Then, without warning, the Baron emerged from shadows unknown, raising taxes with ruthless indifference, draining them dry like a vampire thirsting for blood.The villagers' whispers grew darker, their hatred sharper, praying nightly for the Baron's swift demise—but as cruel fate would have it, evil had a way of outliving hope.Today began as another hollow morning, the fields barren as their stomachs, empty hands grasping at dust.But today was different, to

    “A gift?” Michael Dunsmore burst out laughing, the sound sharp and cutting, echoing through the garden.“Who the hell do you think you are, Alex? Last I checked, you barely had two miserable villages scraping by on dirt and despair. You've borrowed so much money these past two years, I'm amazed you can still afford your own damn underwear!”Michael’s cruel laughter was shared by the surrounding crowd.His confidence was bolstered by the knowledge of his family's immense wealth—the prestigious Dunsmore clan controlled four prosperous villages, making Alex's poverty an easy target.Though Michael stood next to Olivia, his fiancée, his eyes lingered hungrily on Ophelia D’Arcy.Her radiant beauty eclipsed Olivia's entirely, and it burned him deeply to see such perfection bound to someone as worthless as Alex.Two years prior, Ophelia had fallen gravely ill, her delicate life hanging by a thread.It was Alex who stepped in, with knowledge unknown to others, and saved her life.In gratitude

    Alex stepped warily out of the manor's heavy oak door, pausing to take in the bleakness around him.The mansion had long since crumbled into a shadow of its former glory—ivy twisted relentlessly through cracked stone walls, weeds snarled around the iron gates, and the rotting wooden beams creaked mournfully with each gust of wind.He lingered a moment, wondering bitterly when this forsaken place had last seen a friendly hand or a hopeful heart.He moved down the rutted dirt road, flanked by rows of dilapidated houses whose decay mirrored his own dwindling pride.These were remnants of a once-thriving community now rotted to its bones, a decrepit slum echoing Miracle City’s decay, only deeper, darker, more desperate.The villagers watched him from shadowed doorways, gaunt faces streaked with grime and despair.Their eyes widened in fear, mothers dragging their children indoors at his sight."Strange," Alex murmured, unsettled. "What have I done to deserve such terror?"Suddenly, a hagg

    Pain.Brutal, unbearable pain—like a bullet splintering bone and ripping through flesh.Alex's dream shattered instantly. The whispers and colors vanished, replaced by white-hot agony stabbing through his skull, relentless as an outlaw’s vengeance.He tried to twist free, claw his way awake, but his body was rigid—paralyzed, trapped beneath an invisible weight.I’m still dreaming, he thought desperately, panic clawing at his chest.Maybe I’ll open my eyes and realize it’s all just another cruel illusion.But the pain was too raw, too sharp—too real.Focus. Just wake up.Each thought slipped through his mind like dust kicked up by desert wind.He drifted, helplessly spinning in a storm of chaos.My head hurt so bad?Am I dying?I need to wake up—now!Slowly, the agony dulled into a brutal, throbbing ache.With sheer will, Alex forced himself upright, gasping like a man dragged from deep water.His blurred vision slowly cleared, revealing a luxurious, beautifully furnished study.He was

    “Die! At last, you pathetic worm—you die by my hand!”Eunuch erupted into a frenzied, chilling laughter as he watched the mangled remains explode from his devastating strike.Bits of flesh splattered grotesquely across the ground. Nothing recognizable remained.“Eunuch!” a voice shouted anxiously from below, laced with unease.“Is everything clear up there?”Eunuch surveyed the carnage meticulously, his eyes narrowing with suspicion.There was nothing—no enemy, no traps—completely contradictory to their expectations of an ambush from Miracle City.Only one man. Alex.“All clear! No one left alive!” he called back confidently.Slowly and cautiously, the outlaw elders emerged, ascending from their shadowy refuge, their wary gazes landing on the grisly spectacle.Finally, the Demon King climbed out, a grim shadow cast across his face.“Who was unfortunate enough to meet this gruesome fate?” Van sneered coldly, his eyes lingering with disdain on the shredded remains.“It was Alex—that arr

    Inside the underground heart of the Outlaw’s main fortress, Eunuch doubled over, blood erupting from his throat and spilling violently onto the cold stone floor.“A whole damned week!” he spat bitterly.“And there’s no sign this cursed wound’s ever gonna heal!”He had climbed to legend rank, thinking himself invincible, untouchable—until that young bastard, Alex, activated some wickedly mysterious array, smashing him so savagely that now he could barely muster strength at an early Black Gold rank.Fury darkened Eunuch's eyes as he glared at his handsome young secretary.“Tell me, boy, what the hell is happening outside?”The secretary’s voice trembled as he reported, “Our spies from Miracle City say the king and noble families are still scrambling, desperately plugging the holes left by the Bolton family massacre. They're burying warriors by the dozen. Funerals fill their days; they're tightening defenses, terrified we might strike.”Eunuch laughed coldly, tasting blood again.“Van’s

    But when their forces collided, the impact ripped through Eunuch's body, tearing open flesh and splintering bone.Shock filled his eyes as his skin burst, blood spraying.In desperation, he activated his treasured relics—each one instantly obliterated by the sheer force bearing down on him.Eunuch flew backward, crashing violently through the air before finally stabilizing.He gasped for breath, blood dripping from countless wounds, his pride utterly shattered. Without his treasures, he realized bitterly, he would already be dead.Fear flickered briefly in his eyes, replaced swiftly by grudging respect. “This array...is terrifying,” he murmured, clutching his ravaged chest.Raising his voice, he called to Alex, “You’ve earned my respect. In three months, the Demon King and I await your arrival at Outlaw. Do not disappoint.”Grabbing Van, Eunuch vanished into the horizon.Alex stared grimly after them. He could have stopped them, could have killed them—but the Demon King’s wrath would

    Howard’s heart lurched violently at the sight.If Van escaped, he was finished. Panic surged through him, adrenaline burning in his veins.He shoved Scarlett aside with a desperate, savage strength and sprinted toward Van, screaming, “Wait! Don’t leave me!”Arthur’s jaw tightened.
