Clinton made sure to instruct his guards to carry the first aid kit .Leaving him in pain with no aid at his disposal . After a long while Nicolas woke up embraced by the darkness. Although his eyes were wide open he still couldn’t see a thing . It was at that very moment that Nicolas understood the situation he is in .He realized that Clara betrayed and humiliated him .His whole world felt like it was crumbling around him.He had always trusted Clara , and had always believed they were meant to be together. But now, he felt betrayed, angry, and alone. And worst of all, he felt like a fool. How could he have been so blind? How could he have missed the signs?She cheated on him because he did not have money . This is the same reason why his biological mother left his father twenty years ago.Will history continue to repeat itself he thought.The world really revolves around the rich . This is undoubtedly the second worst day of his life .The pain he felt is family with the one he felt the day his mother left him with his abusive father .He could remember her saying she will leave him with the devil after all he is the devil’s son .Indeed Nicolas' father was the devil in human form who finds pleasure in people's pain and suffering, his wife and son not an exception .He was known to show no mercy to anyone, not even his own family . A man with a heart full of evil .Nicolas was only five years old when his mother left him , leaving him to be raised by his father, a stern and unyielding man who cared little for his son's feelings. As Nicolas grew up, he was subjected to his father's constant criticism and emotional and physical abuse . No matter how hard he tried, he could never seem to please his father or earn his love.His father would often beat him for the slightest infraction, leaving Nicolas feeling scared and alone. In time, Nicolas learned to keep his head down and avoid his father as much as possible, spending his days lost in books or wandering the streets alone.Nicolas’ father was a strict disciplinarian who believed that technology, friends, and any sort of indulgence were nothing but distractions from his son's life . He forbade Nicolas from owning a television, a radio, or even a mobile phone. He also discouraged Marcus from spending time with other children, and wouldn't allow him to have sleepovers or attend birthday parties.Even sweets were off the table, as his father believed they would only serve to spoil his son. In time, Nicolas began to feel isolated and lonely, with little to look forward to in his life besides house chores and the occasional book.Nicolas doesn't seem to understand while he has to be the one suffering this way .Since his childhood he has known nothing but pain , betrayal and suffering. He can’t help but notice how life has been unfair to him .He doesn’t deserve this . As this thought rang through him Nicolas made a decision to end his life .Wincing in pain he was able to get up from the floor and headed for the exit door with one thought in his mind to end his life .Nicolas decided to choose the perfect spot to end his life that is the lake located at the out risk of the city . It is the only place he has truly been happy . With a lot of groaning and pain he dragged himself all the way to the lake not minding the torture he is giving himself . After all, it will all be over soon . He will wipe his existence from this world. Soon after some minutes he arrived at the lake side .As Nicolas sat by the lake, he remembered the last time he had been truly happy. It was the summer before his mother left him with his that for another man and they had spent the day playing by the water. He remembered how the sun had reflected off the surface of the lake, and how his mother had laughed as they splashed each other.He thought of the years that had passed since then, and of all the sadness and loneliness that had come to define his life. But then, he thought of another day by the lake, the day he had met his fiancée.He also met Clara at this very same lake . She was humming the melody of a very old country song . Oh how she looked like and angel that very day .At first, the memories of his mother and fiancée had been comforting to Nicolas But then, a darker thought crept into his mind: the memory of his fiancée's betrayal. It was like a punch to the gut, and he felt his mood darken as the memories of happier times were replaced by feelings of anger and sadness.His fiancée had betrayed him in the worst possible way, and the wound was still raw. As he sat by the lake, the pain and anger threatened to overwhelm him.As Nicolas walked to the edge of the lake, he was overcome with despair. He felt like he had nothing left to live for, and that ending his life was the only way to escape the pain and heartbreak he felt.But just as he was about to take the plunge, he heard a voice behind him. "Stop! don't , don't do this!" It was a man voice , and sounded genuinely authoritative So, when Nicolas turned around, it wasn't just any man behind him - it was a man in a police uniform. The officer looked at Marcus with a stern expression and said, "Sir, you can't do this. You have so much to live for, and there are people who care about you." Marcus was shocked to hear these words, and he felt a glimmer of hope. Maybe the officer was right. Maybe he did have something to live for. But the next words he heard shocked him

Chapter Thirty Three : Feelings
Chapter Thirty-Three:Matthew slumped into the plush leather chair of his study, staring blankly at the half-empty glass of whiskey in his hand. The amber liquid swirled slowly, a metaphor for the turmoil that raged within him. Clara's face haunted his thoughts, her eyes burning with anger and betrayal when she stormed out of his office earlier that day. He could still hear her voice, trembling with fury, demanding answers he couldn’t give her—not because he didn't have them, but because admitting the truth to her would only deepen the wound he already carried.Clara had been the love of his life. They had shared dreams, whispered secrets in the dark, and promised each other a future that once seemed so bright. But all of that had shattered the day she left him for Clinton. It wasn’t just that she left; it was the reason why. Clara had chosen power, wealth, and security over love, over him. The betrayal had carved a deep scar into his heart, one that never truly healed. And now, seein
Chapter Thirty Two : A Confrontation Unveiled
Chapter Thirty-Two: A Confrontation UnveiledClara paced the length of her lavish bedroom, her heart pounding in her chest. Clinton's outburst still echoed in her ears, and she couldn't shake the image of his once-commanding presence now reduced to a man overwhelmed by fear and failure. The humiliation of seeing him so vulnerable had sparked something inside her—a mix of anger, frustration, and deep-seated resentment. Clinton had once been the epitome of power and control, the man who had swept her off her feet with promises of wealth and security. Now, that image was crumbling before her eyes, and all she could think about was the man she had left behind.Matthew.The name itself brought a bitter taste to her mouth. She had left him because he was poor, because she wanted more than what he could offer. And now, he was the one responsible for Clinton's downfall. She had seen the signs—the calculated moves, the whispered rumors, the sudden losses that Clinton's empire had suffered. It
Chapter Thirty One : The Crumbling Fortress
Chapter Thirty One: The Crumbling FortressClinton sat in his hospital bed, the sterile white sheets tucked tightly around him, a stark contrast to the chaos that now defined his life. The fire had been meant to cripple Matthew, to break him just as Clinton had been broken. Instead, it was Clinton who now lay weakened, physically scarred and mentally battered, with the realization that his once unassailable power was no more.The television in the corner of the room droned on, news reports cycling through the latest updates on the corporate world—a world Clinton had once dominated. His name was still mentioned, but not with the reverence or fear it once commanded. Instead, there were whispers of decline, of a man no longer at the height of his power. The fire had been the final straw, but the truth had been slowly revealing itself over the past weeks. Clinton's empire, once so vast and unyielding, was crumbling from the inside.It had started with the businesses. Clinton's meticulousl
Chapter Thirty : The Flames Of War
Chapter Thirty: The Flames of WarClinton awoke to the sterile scent of antiseptic and the low hum of hospital machinery. His body was a landscape of agony, each breath a struggle, each movement an invitation to a fresh wave of pain. The fire had ravaged him, leaving behind scorched skin, charred nerves, and a seething hatred that burned hotter than the flames that had nearly claimed his life.He lay in the bed, wrapped in layers of gauze and bandages, his once imposing figure now reduced to a frail shell of its former self. The hospital room was dim, the blinds drawn to shield his sensitive eyes from the harsh light of day. Machines beeped steadily beside him, monitoring his vitals, a constant reminder of his fragility.But Clinton’s mind was anything but fragile. As he stared at the ceiling, his thoughts were consumed by a single name: Matthew. The man he had once humiliated, imprisoned, and taken everything from had returned with a vengeance. And this time, Clinton was the one left
Chapter Twenty Nine: The Unraveling Reputation
Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Unraveling ReputationMatthew sat in his dimly lit study, the only sound in the room the faint ticking of the old grandfather clock. He swirled a glass of whiskey in his hand, his mind whirling with the next phase of his carefully orchestrated revenge. The first phase had gone off without a hitch—Clinton’s businesses were in disarray, and the man had no idea who was behind his sudden misfortune. But now, it was time to strike at something more personal: Clinton’s reputation.The corporate world was unforgiving. A single misstep could turn allies into enemies, and Matthew knew just how to exploit that. He had once been a respected man in those same circles, and though Clinton had tried to erase him, Matthew still had the knowledge and the connections to turn the tide against his former captor.As he downed the last of his drink, Matthew began typing an anonymous email on his laptop, his fingers moving swiftly over the keys. The email was addressed to a select g

Chapter Twenty Eight: Powerful They were no longer the powerful family they once were—they were vulnerable, desperate, and alone. And that was exactly where Matthew wanted them. Clinton had retreated to the family’s once-grand estate, now a shadow of its former glory. The lavish parties and gatherings that had once filled the halls were replaced by an eerie silence. The staff had been dismissed, the rooms left empty, and the gardens overgrown. The Clintons had always prided themselves on their wealth and influence, but now, all they had was a crumbling mansion and a name that had become synonymous with disgrace.Matthew had been watching Clinton for days, observing his movements and waiting for the right moment. He knew Clinton was at his breaking point, and that’s when Matthew decided to make his move.Dressed in all black, Matthew approached the estate under the cover of night. The gates, once heavily guarded, were now left open, a sign of the Clintons’ downfall. He slipped throug
Chapter Twenty Seven : Determination
Chapter Twenty Seven : Determination Matthew woke up the next morning with a sense of determination. The first phase of his revenge plan had gone smoothly, but he knew this was only the beginning. The Clintons might be reeling from the logistics disaster, but they were far from broken. He had to keep the pressure on, hitting them from different angles until they had nowhere left to turn.Today, his target was Clinton Industries, the manufacturing arm of the Clinton empire. They produced a range of products, from electronics to automotive parts, and their factories were the backbone of their business. Disrupting their production lines would strike a major blow to their operations and profits.Matthew had spent weeks infiltrating their network, posing as a freelance consultant hired to improve efficiency. The Clintons had been eager to take him on, seeing only the credentials he presented—a fabricated resume built on the knowledge he’d acquired during his years in prison. They had no i
Chapter Twenty Six : Revenge
Chapter Twenty Six : Revenge Matthew stood before the mirror in his modest apartment, adjusting his tie with the precision of a man who had nothing left to lose. The face staring back at him was a mask, devoid of the warmth it once held. The years of imprisonment, the betrayal, and the loss of his wife had hollowed him out, leaving behind only a relentless drive for revenge. Today marked the beginning of his plan to dismantle the Clinton family, piece by piece.The Clintons had taken everything from him—his freedom, his dignity, his family. But what they didn’t know was that in the darkness of his cell, Matthew had become a different man. He had spent those long years not just plotting, but learning. He had studied finance, business, and technology with a fervor that bordered on obsession. And now, armed with this knowledge, he was ready to strike.Matthew had spent months meticulously planning his first move. He had researched the Clinton family businesses, mapping out their vulnera
Chapter Twenty Five : A Shift In Winds
Chapter Twenty-Five: A Shift in the WindsNicolas leaned back in his chair, the early morning sunlight streaming through the windows of his home office. The events of the past few days had left him in a reflective mood. The blind date with Anya, his conversation with his grandmother, and the solace he found in his car—these had all played on his mind, each adding a layer to the question of what he really wanted out of life.He was about to dive into his emails when his phone buzzed on the desk. Glancing at the screen, he saw an unfamiliar number. Hesitating for a moment, he answered.“Hello?”“Mr. Moreau?” a polished voice inquired on the other end. “This is Robert Hastings from Regalia Motors. I hope I’m catching you at a good time?”Nicolas’s eyebrows shot up. Regalia Motors was one of the most prestigious luxury car manufacturers in the world, and Robert Hastings was a well-known figure in the industry. “Yes, of course. How can I help you?”“Well, Mr. Moreau, we’ve been following y
