The once serene environment was now filled with tension and frustration as nearby diners found their meals interrupted.A woman's voice pierced through the commotion, her annoyance evident."Do we really need this right now?" She turned to look at Zane and Emma. "We came here for a peaceful meal, not a spectacle."Her partner chimed in, giving Zane a disapproving look. "Exactly, just leave the poor waitress alone. It was just a simple spill, right? There's no need to make a scene."Another diner, a stern-looking middle-aged man, gestured towards the waitress. "That's quite a mistake for a professional establishment. I'm just thankful it didn't happen at our table."A young couple at a nearby table caught the waiter's attention, their expressions filled with displeasure."Excuse me, but could we please move to a quieter spot? This disruption is ruining the

"Well, that was quite an adventure we had today, wasn't it? Life truly is full of surprises."Zane nodded thoughtfully, his mind still processing the rollercoaster of a day he had at the office.

"Boss, I made this for you. You'll be meditating all day, right?" she asked with a warm smile.Grateful for her thoughtfulness, Zane nodded with appreciation. "Thank you, Cecilia. You're incredible, as always."Cecilia chuckled, brushing off the compliment. "It's all part of my job, Boss. You're thanking me too much."Taking advantage of the relaxed atmosphere, Cedric eagerly asked, "Boss, would you like me to join you for some combat training today?"However, Zane had different pla

"Thank you, Cecilia," he said gratefully.As Zane climbed into the car, Cecilia, his trusted assistant, had some news to share about the golf course that he recently acquired.

The air in the parking lot was thick with tension and animosity. Emotions ran high as Zane reached for his cellphone, causing the atmosphere to shift palpably. With a calm and confident demeanor, he turned to face the woman who had been causing such a commotion."You don't have any proof," she sneered, her tone dripping with self-righteousness.Zane's response was unwavering, "Actually, I do. It's all right here." He held up his cellphone for her to see.The woman, who had previously been so sure of her version of events, faltered at the sight of the phone. Her bravado quickly dissipated as she demanded, "Well, let's see it then!"The crowd, previously swayed by the woman's claims, now leaned in with eager anticipation.

His brows furrowed as he noticed a striking difference in the numbers from the previous month.With a sense of deep concern, he picked up his phone and dialed several contacts, seeking verification and additional data.After gathering enough evidence, Zane made his way to Marcus Scott’s office, a sheaf of papers in hand. The weight of what he had discovered sat heavily on his shoulders as he entered the room. Marcus, the CEO of the company, greeted him with a welcoming nod.“Mr. Scott,” Zane began, his tone even and betraying none of the urgency he felt."Hello Zane," Marcus replied, sensing something amiss. He leaned forward in his chair. “What’s going on?”Zane placed the papers on Marcus’s desk, his hands slightly shaking with the gravity of the situation.“I’ve come across some irregularities. Financial discrepancies that raise serious concerns.” He pointed to the highlighted

"I've planned a dinner out for us tonight, and Cedric and Alfred will be joining as well. I'll text you the address of the restaurant shortly."Cecilia's voice brightened even more. "That sounds wonderful, Boss. We'll get ready and meet you there," she replied, her enthusiasm evident in her tone.Zane had carefully chosen a special place for the evening.

Zane stood facing Morano at a close distance. Zane remained calm, while Morano wore a dismissive expression."So, are you sure you want to face me alone, young man? Hahaha."He continued, "I’m not even sure if your grandfather could, let alone you."Without warning, Zane darted forward, his body becoming a blur that was hard for the naked eye to follow. His teleportation allowed him to move at lightning speed, appearing beside Morano and delivering a powerful punch. "Today, I will tear down the empire you’ve built. In the name of my grandfather, I will destroy you."Morano managed to dodge the first attack, but Zane was already behind him in an instant, kicking him hard in the back. Morano staggered but quickly retaliated."Hahaha, young man, you’re truly naive. I will show you who I really am."Their duel grew more intense.

Morano moved his face slightly and signaled for his two men to leave. They cautiously exited the room. Morano, who had been sitting in a luxurious swivel chair behind his desk, now walked towards Zane. They were face to face. Alessandra remained seated calmly on the sofa, observing Zane.She wasn't surprised by Zane's ability to teleport, as she had often heard stories about John Clark from her father, Morano. So, she wasn't shocked, but she hadn’t expected Zane to possess the same ability.Zane locked eyes with Morano and firmly said, "Don’t ever say that again. It’s disgusting."“Hahaha, Zane Gardner, I don’t know what John told you. But, yes, you two were pretty close. I was hurt—it felt like unrequited love, hahaha.”“Stop your nonsense.”“Wow, you’re braver than John, huh? He should’ve learned more from you, hahaha.”Zane remained where he stood. "I don't care about anything you're saying."“So, why are you here? Did your grandfather send you to surrender? Has he finally admit

Zane stood on top of a building across from the FBI office. He had successfully completed his first mission, and to his surprise, it had been easier than expected. Maretti, Harris, and Dominic lay bound, their hands and feet tied, though their mouths were left free. The flashes from the cameras of journalists bombarded them. "Stop it! You fools!" Harris shouted, demanding the reporters stop taking pictures and recording. "Zane Gardner! This is all Zane Gardner's doing! You're idiots; you should be after him, not gathered here. We are the victims!" Maretti yelled. But their cries fell on deaf ears, as the journalists ignored them and broadcasted everything live on TV and the internet. The headline read: "The Biggest Scandal of the Century: Elite Businessmen Exposed as World Mafia Leaders!" Everyone flooded the comment sections. "What is this? What have they done?"

After Zane successfully subdued the three leaders of The Crimson, he put on his advanced glasses, designed for enhanced vision. "Good job, Alfred, I can see everything clearly," he said, speaking into his earpiece. At that moment, Zane could see the busy city and a convoy of black cars. It was obvious that they belonged to Morano’s men. "Yes, Master. Morano’s forces will arrive soon. It’s best if you move quickly," Alfred replied from a rooftop.The sudden cut of the CCTV feed had already made Morano suspicious, so he ordered his men to head to the location where Maretti and Harris were.

The fake Zane quickly intercepted him, and the two became locked in a fight.While the fake Zane was busy with Dominic, Harris tried to help free Maretti. He picked up a chair and aimed to strike Zane with it.But with measured reflexes and senses, Zane calmly lifted his right leg backward. It hit the chair that was thrown at him, causing it to rebound and hit Harris instead.Seeing Zane about to inject Maretti made her act.
