Chapter 13 : Interrogation

Steve seemed to be considering the offer from Icarus. He was eager to refuse because he was afraid of the risks that would occur later. Moreover, Steve did not know Icarus before. Steve was afraid that Icarus would do something dangerous to him, like the scenes on television that Minji often watched.

However, if he stopped here, it would be like Steve giving up and making the plan that had worked so far fall apart. In fact, Terry's plan was about to hit a bright spot. This certainly made Steve feel a dilemma. Because the two choices in front of him had a considerable risk.

"Sir, so are you going to agree to my offer or not?"

Icarus' voice came back to his ears, bringing Steve back to reality. He turned to Icarus with a small blink. After taking a deep breath, Steve finally made a big decision that would determine his future.

"Okay. I'll come with you."

Steve could see the big smile on Icarus' face, as if he was satisfied that he had gotten what he wanted. Th

His eyes spotted two people standing in the doorway. The man seemed to squint his eyes as he felt his vision was unclear. The objects in front of him seemed so blurry and vague. He rubbed his eyes with his hands and refocused his gaze on the people who came into his room."Ah, are you Terry and Ben?""Yes, sir,""Then come in."Ben and Terry entered the light blue room. After entering, Terry did not forget to close the door so that no one could eavesdrop on their confidential conversation."Sit down." The blond-haired man ordered in a stern tone of voice. His eyes looked tired, with dark circles clearly visible on his face, indicating that he lacked rest. The man's appearance looked disheveled, as if he hadn't changed his clothes since morning."I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you before because my vision is not clear.""It's alri

    Chapter 15 : Misunderstanding Steve did not accept being called a traitor by the blond man in front of him. His pride was bruised. His ego was hurt. And the anger was now mounting in his head, ready to explode at any moment.Steve got up from his seat, then immediately walked towards Barbara, who was currently staring at him with a challenging gaze, as if inviting him to a duel.Steve's steps were slow as his sprained leg was still painful to move. The man even had to drag his foot just to face Barbara.Once in front of the man, Steve raised his face with a glare. His lips were folded, and his breath caught in his throat. His face was flushed with anger. In addition, Steve clenched his hands into fists until his knuckles looked white."What do you mean by saying I'm a traitor?" asked Steve in an icy tone, forgetting the fact that Barbara was much older than him.Barbara pulled the corners of his lips up, forming a sardonic smile that looked condescending to his interlocutor.

"Sir, why are you laughing?" Asked Icarus, who was surprised by his boss's attitude. "Is there something funny about what I said?""Yes, of course there is." Barbara tried to quell the laughter coming out of his mouth. He had to pinch his own cheeks to make it stop. "What you said sounded funny to my ears. There is no way this shabby-looking man is my son, Icarus," Barbara added with a sardonic smile printed on his handsome 60-year-old face. "You better not make jokes like that, Icarus. Because this joke is not funny."Icarus let out a long sigh as he closed his eyes. He tried to patiently give understanding to Barbara, who seemed to not accept the fact that he had just said."Unfortunately, I am not joking, sir." Icarus put on a serious face while standing behind the chair that Terry and Steve were sitting on. H

    Chapter 17: Reaction (2)Aleena gasped in surprise when Barbara pulled her away, while she touched Steve's face. Her brown eyes stared at Barbara with a confused look.Her mouth itched to argue when her husband told her that Steve was not her son, who had been missing for 25 years, despite all the evidence."What do you mean he's not our son?"Barbara closed his eyes for a moment. He reached out his hand to Aleena's and grasped it with a heavy sigh, as if he were holding a great burden. His eyes felt tired and hot, begging for rest. However, Barbara could not do that when there was unfinished business here. After calming down, Barbara opened his eyes again, looking at his wife with a serious gaze."You can see that for yourself, Honey," Barbara said while glancing at Steve, who was currently staring at the two with raised eyebrows."His appearance is very different from that of our missing child. You have to realize and let go of the possibility that our son might have died in that i

The two men were sitting in one of the chairs in the hallway, waiting for Aleena and Barbara. Meanwhile, Terry himself chose to stand not far from them.Terry clucked in annoyance while occasionally glancing at the watch on his right hand. His feet kept stepping back and forth with a strong foot stomp. His lips were folded, and his hands were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white."Where are they?" Terry asked with his eyes closed for a few seconds. His tone of voice sounded both annoyed and irritated. Another harsh sigh came out of his mouth. "Why aren't they here at this hour?"Ben, who was playing online games on his cell phone, was naturally annoyed. Terry's incessant grumbling made his ears ring. His eyes also felt tired as he kept looking at Terry, who was pacing in front of him like an iron. Ben wanted to reprimand his brother for being quiet and sitt

He gave him a small, meaningful smile that raised a million new questions.Barbara patted Steve's arm lightly twice, then walked away, leaving Steve filled with the curiosity that filled his head. Once Barbara's back was out of sight, Steve let out a long sigh. His brain was now full of thoughts about the meaning of Barbara's words. Steve felt a little frustrated as he reached a dead end in his search for answers."Steve," Terry called in a low voice as he tapped Steve on the shoulder he was holding. The dark purple-haired man snapped out of his thoughts and turned his head towards the source of the voice. His eyes blinked for a moment before finally making a sound. "Yes?""What did the old man whisper to you?" asked Ben in a worried tone because Steve looked so distressed after getting a whisper from Barbara."Nothing," Steve replied briefly, as he didn't want to talk at length at the moment. "He just gave me a l

    Chapter 20 : Searching for evidence (1)There was a loud knock on the door from outside. Barbara, who was reading a document about cooperation with another company, looked a little distracted. His focus was immediately broken. His deep blue eyes stared at the door standing in front of him with raised eyebrows without saying anything. Barbara took off the glasses that had been perched neatly on his nose, placing them on the table. He also loosened the tie around his neck. After that, Barbara began to speak in a fairly loud tone.“Come in.”The door opened, revealing a man in a black suit that clung to his athletic body. He was about 183 cm tall, with blond hair and amber-colored eyes. But the most striking thing about his appearance was the shoulder-length earrings, like an idol. The long earrings were only on the right side, with black arrow-shaped tips.The man entered the room with wide strides. The sound of his loafers scraping against the floor echoed throughout the room, fillin

    Chapter 21 : Searching For Evidence (2)Steve looked closely at the necklace he found. He realized that the necklace he found had some special engravings, like a pattern that formed something. "Hey, who are you? What are you doing in this place?"Steve gasped in surprise when he heard the voice behind him. His body tensed up for a few moments, with his heart beating fast as if it were about to burst out of its place. His face took on a paper-like appearance. His tongue was too weak to say a word. Steve felt he recognized the voice. Wanting to make sure, he turned his head stiffly to the back and found someone already standing there. It was Daniel, the man he hated for the rest of his life.Steve's gaze instantly turned sharp. His hands were clenched tightly into fists, holding back the emotions that had been raging in his chest since forever. Steve put the necklace he found into his pants pocket. After that, he turned his body around and stood up from his squatting position, then l

The autopsy was announced in court, as was prosecuting Minji, who was the suspect in this incident.Steve sat in the chair as a witness. He had left everything to the lawyer hired by Kai. After all, this was the final battle between him and Minji to prove whether she was guilty or not.Behind him, there were many people who came to see the trial. In addition, many of the media were allowed to record this incident since it was an open trial. They were filming this event because Rosemary was one of the most influential figures in the business world (and growing in Steve's hands).Steve felt his heart beating very hard. He hoped that Minji would not appeal the verdict. After the clerk announced the verdict, a 40-year-old woman who represented the forensic doctor, who autopsied the bodies of her father and mother, entered."I am Fela, the forensic doctor who will bear witness to the truth of t

How could the culprit have been found? What evidence has been found? The thoughts kept spinning in his head endlessly, making him dizzy himself.Terry turned his attention to Ben, who was now frowning. The man with heterochromia eyes looked silent, as if he were analyzing the situation in this house.“What do you mean, sir?” asked Ben quickly, representing Terry’s question, who was about to ask the same question.The detective smiled faintly at Terry and Ben. “Yes, the culprit has been found. I just need additional evidence to support it.”“That fast?” asked Steve in an incredulous tone. He rounded his eyes, unable to believe what he had just heard.His heart seemed to stop beating as his face paled. Was the detective in front of him playing games with him? Or was he telling the truth? Because, as he rememb

They stared at each other before finally turning their faces the other way."You want me to be the father of the child inside your stomach?" Steve asked to be sure.Minji nodded her head quickly. Her eyes were sparkling, and her gaze was full of pleading. She looked at Steve with her hands clasped in front of her chest."Yes, I beg you. Please be the father of my child. Let's go back to the way we used to be, Steve. I've always dreamed of us being a family again, like-""Stop it there." Steve stopped Minji's words, which were too ridiculous for his ears. He put on a frivolous smile with a sardonic look in his eyes."After you left with another man and are now pregnant, you're asking to get back with me? Have you lost your mind?"Minji's smile now faded, turning into a sad face. Tears now flowed from her eyes again, much more heavily than before. Her sobs sounded so soft and heart-

    Chapter 135: She's backAfter a long debate with Mr. Kang, Steve decided to just go back to America with Terry and Ben. And here he was, in an airport full of people.After getting their suitcase, the three men quickly made their way out. They had missed the country so much. Fun plans were already running through their brains.Steve inhaled the air greedily, with a small smile on his lips. He was very happy to be back in the country, although on the other hand, he felt a little bad that Mr. Kang had to take care of the rest of his work.As he was about to get a taxi, someone suddenly tugged on the hem of his shirt. Steve turned around to see who it was.His eyes were perfectly rounded, as if they were about to pop out of place. In addition, his heart seemed to stop beating, with his body frozen like a statue. He couldn't believe the person in front of him."Hello, Steve." Steve immediately took the body tightly into his arms. He buried his head on her shoulder. Steve's breathi

The three men had no other means of protecting their bodies from the fury of the crazed audience, just because of Daniel's provocative sentence.Once the tomatoes and cakes on the buffet table were gone, the guests stood still, staring at the three men with disgust, cynicism, and hatred. Steve lifted his head from the folds of his hands, protecting his face, and looked at his own body.His body was so dirty, covered in cream and crushed tomatoes. The same thing happened to Terry and Steve. "Get the three of you out of here! A vile person like you doesn't belong with the leaders of the company, Mr. Steve," Alexa said angrily. She clenched her fists with a glare at Steve."Ms. Alexa, I-""Get out of here!" Alexa shouted loudly. She grabbed Steve's hand and pushed him hard, knocking him to the ground. Again, Steve felt a sense of dejavu, just like when he was humiliated by Daniel at Layla'

    Chapter 134: Media Play (2)Daniel smiled happily as more people walked into his trap. His sooty black eyes were still focused on Steve, who was currently rounding the corner. He felt victorious because he had managed to make the man feel cornered.Daniel picked up the mic again, brought it closer to his mouth, and spoke again to make another provocative sentence."I have proof that Steve did that. Do you want to see it?"Again, there was silence for the second time. The audience was shocked by the words that came out of his mouth. "Don't you believe me? I really have proof." Daniel opened his mouth again. He made his tone persuasive so that the audience would believe what he said.The platinum-haired girl, who had been speaking, fell silent. Her mouth opened, and a look of doubt now overcame her. From that alone, the woman who had been supporting Steve now began to have doubts about what she believed in."You must be joking if you have proof." The platinum-haired woman uttered the

    Chapter 133: Media Play (1)All the guests whispered to each other after hearing Daniel's words. Some of them even gave Steve a cynical look at the event. The praise they had just given him seemed to have been taken back. In other words, they are licking their own saliva.Seeing the situation turning against him, Terry gritted his teeth. His jaw clenched so tightly that his neck veins stood out. His hands were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white. His eyes were bulging, and a dark, black aura now surrounded his body, making the few people who were there step aside because they couldn't stand the dark aura. Let's not forget the dominant demeanor that was getting thicker and thicker around him, making Terry ten times scarier than before.Beside him, Steve and Ben looked quite panicked to see Terry, who was in alert mode. They were both trying to quell the anger of the red-haired man. Steve and Ben stroked Terry's back gently, trying to calm his hot-blooded heart."Terry,

His eyes shifted in another direction, reluctant to meet Kai, who was currently waiting for a reaction from him.“Who proposed the mission to them?” asked Steve, trying to remain calm. His voice sounded flat, contrary to the state of his heart, which wanted to blame his best friend.Kai sighed. He bit the candy in his mouth until it crumbled and swallowed it slowly. After his mouth was clean, Kai coughed a little. He wanted to create a serious atmosphere between himself and Steve.“Mr. Kang and I planned this,” Kai replied in a low voice. His gaze was still fixed on Steve, though the man was reluctant to look at him.“But why?” Steve massaged the bridge of his throbbing nose, feeling clueless about everything that was happening.“What are you bothering the Griffins for? Didn’t they do anything to the Grayon family and Kang Corp this time?”Kai glared

    Chapter 131: Like Heaven and Earth Kai was silent for a few moments. His eyes were perfectly rounded, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets. His face looked so pale, like paper. His mouth was slightly open, but he didn't say anything, as if something were holding his tongue. His heart seemed to stop beating. His mind was suddenly blank, as was the look in his eyes. Feeling something was wrong, Steve gently patted the back of Kai's hand. "Kai?" Steve called out in a slightly louder voice to wake Kai up from his reverie. Apparently, it worked. Kai was stunned and looked at Steve with blinking eyes a few times, gathering the consciousness that had been scattered. "Yes?" He said it spontaneously. "Why are you daydreaming?" asked Steve with a deeply furrowed brow. His tone of voice showed that he was annoyed, which was very different from before, when he was so friendly and warm. "Why are you being quiet? Please answer my question, Kai. I want to know what you're h
