At that moment Serenity closed the file slowly, her fingers pressing against the edges as she let out a quiet breath. She had all the confirmation she needed now—Damien was truly from the same city as her. His past, his parents, even the close friends still handling one of his father’s companies—it all checked out.But just because the information was there didn’t mean she fully trusted it.“No,” she thought. “I’ll do my own background check. I’ll get to the bottom of everything myself.”At that moment She lifted her head and turned to the brain. “Thank you,” she said, her voice calm, her expression unreadable. “At least now my mind is off this matter.”Hearing what Serenity just said the brain nodded slightly, watching her carefully. He didn’t say anything else.Serenity was about to turn away, about to leave the room and put distance between herself and this whole situation, when Damien’s voice cut through the air.“I hope you’re not going to disturb me anymore, Serenity,” he said

Winston raised an eyebrow immediately, he was clearly caught off guard by Megan's words. His fingers tapped against the table impatiently.“A response?” he repeated, his voice laced with confusion. “What kind of response do you want?”Then Jefferson smirked, leaning slightly forward. “Listen to the briefing first,” he said smoothly. “If you like what you hear, then we’ll tell you what we want. And if you agree to our terms, we’ll give you everything you need on Damien. After that, you can do whatever you want with him.”Hearing what Jefferson just said London’s jaw clenched slightly, his anger barely contained. This wasn’t what he expected. He thought they would come here, get information, and finally get rid of Damien.But now, there were conditions?Winston glanced at London, seeing the frustration in his eyes. He wasn’t pleased either, but neither of them wanted to leave empty-handed.And London—London needed this. The anger boiling inside him was too much. Damien had humiliated

Hearing Damien words Jessica blinked, caught completely off guard by Damien’s cold and sharp response.She had expected him to be distant, maybe even annoyed, but this? This was different.The way he spoke—flat, uninterested, almost irritated—made it painfully clear.He doesn’t want to be here. He doesn’t even want to see her.At that moment her fingers twitched slightly, pressing against her lap as a strange wave of unease washed over her. She suddenly felt like a fool for calling him, for insisting on this meeting when, deep down, she already knew the answer.Then her throat went dry. Her mind scrambled for words.“I-I—” she started, then stopped.Her fingers curled tighter.However Damien’s gaze was steady, unreadable. He wasn’t going to help her out of this. He was waiting.Jessica swallowed hard, her voice barely coming out properly. “I-I mean… I already asked you before but…”Her voice faltered again, her nerves making her stammer worse. She forced a deep breath, trying to reg

At that moment Damien pushed his chair back, standing up with no hesitation. He had nothing more to say.Jessica, however, felt a sinking disappointment in her chest.‘This wasn’t how I wanted this to go…’She had imagined things differently. After the truth came out, she thought there would at least be a moment—just a small moment—where things wouldn’t feel so tense. Where maybe, just maybe, she and Damien could sit without resentment filling the air between them.But now, he was already leaving.Then her fingers clenched slightly under the table before she quickly forced herself to speak.“Damien,” she called, her voice softer than before.He stopped but didn’t turn.Jessica took a deep breath, then stood up as well. “I just… I just want to apologize again,” she said, her voice wavering slightly. “For everything that happened before. I didn’t know what I was doing then, and I’m sorry.”Damien let out a slow breath before turning his head slightly to glance at her. “No problem,” he

His smirk widened as he spoke, as if expecting Damien to suddenly back down in fear.“My father is not just any senator,” Adrian continued, puffing his chest. “He’s personally connected to the governor of this city and has strong ties to the president’s inner circle. Do you have any idea what that means?”His eyes darkened as he leaned slightly closer, lowering his voice just enough to make it more threatening.“One word from me,” he sneered, “and I can ruin your life.”At that moment the restaurant was dead silent. A few people nearby had started whispering, clearly recognizing the Vaughn name.Everyone knew what Adrian’s influence could do. Everyone knew how powerful his father was.At that moment Adrian's smirk widened as he pulled his wrist slightly, still feeling Damien’s firm grip holding him in place.“You’ve got until the count of three to let me go,” he sneered. “One… two—”Before he could even say “three,” Damien calmly released his hand.Adrian immediately yanked his arm ba
The understated miraculous Doctor. Chapter Hundred and Ninety Five
The grip was firm, unyielding, and just as before, Adrian found himself trapped in Damien’s hold.Seeing what just happened the entire restaurant fell into a stunned silence.Damien’s expression didn’t change. He remained calm, his voice low but sharp.“I just told you not long ago,” he said evenly. “Why are you trying to take it this far?”His grip tightened slightly, his gaze locked onto Adrian’s furious eyes.“She already told you she’s going to pay,” Damien continued. “So what exactly are you trying to do here?”The weight of his words settled in the air, thick with tension.Adrian’s chest heaved, his rage barely contained. His eyes flickered to Damien’s hand, still gripping his wrist, and a wave of disgust flashed across his face.“You—again.”Adrian’s lips curled into a deep sneer, his jaw tightening as he realized—once again—he was being stopped.Adrian's nostrils flared, his face burning with frustration. He didn’t quite understand why, but something about this situation was m

Seeing the look on Adrian’s face, Valentina couldn’t help but chuckle.Without being told she could tell It wasn’t just anger—no, it was frustration, humiliation, and the bitter realization that he had lost control of the situation.She tilted her head slightly, her smirk widening. “Well,” she said lightly, “it seems like there’s no issue here anymore.”Her eyes gleamed with amusement. “Which means we can leave now, right?”Adrian didn’t respond. He stood there, jaw clenched, seething in silent fury.He knew he couldn’t push this any further. Not without consequences.Valentina let out a soft, mocking laugh before turning to Jessica and Damien. “Come on,” she said smoothly. “Let’s go.”Without hesitation, she walked away, Jessica and Damien following right behind her.At that moment Adrian didn’t move.He didn’t call out, he didn’t stop them.He just stood there, watching with clenched fists as they walked away, his rage simmering beneath his skin.But just as Valentina reached the

The words felt easy enough to say, but deep down, a part of her still wrestled with the regret of how things had turned out.Before she could dwell on it too much, Valentina suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand.Jessica blinked in surprise as Valentina squeezed her fingers lightly, a playful grin forming on her lips.“Sister,” Valentina said dramatically, tilting her head. “Since we’re friends now, you have to tell me some things about Dr.Damien.”Immediately Jessica’s brows shot up. “Huh?”Valentina chuckled, looping her arm around Jessica’s. “Come on! Let’s go do something fun. Shopping, maybe? I’ll even show you where to get that exclusive suit Adrian was throwing a fit over.”Before Jessica could protest, Valentina was already pulling her forward.Jessica hesitated for a second, glancing back at Damien.But Damien, seeing that he was clearly no longer part of the conversation, simply sighed and shook his head.“You guys should enjoy yourselves,” he said flatly, before turnin

At that moment London brother s suddenly let go of his leg, allowing him to regain his balance. Then he stepped backward, calm and composed, as if the attack had been nothing but a warm-up stretch.London’s brother landed on his feet smoothly. He straightened up slowly, rotating his ankle as he gave Damien a hard stare. His jaw clenched, but then a smirk broke through his rigid expression.“Well… not bad,” he muttered, his voice laced with restrained anger. “I’m quite impressed.”His eyes narrowed, not in admiration—but calculation.“You dodged my attack,” he continued, voice sharper now, “and you even caught it… cleanly. You didn’t flinch. That says a lot.”He stepped in a slow circle, boots crunching over broken crate pieces.“You’re not from here, are you?” he asked coldly. “No. I see that now. No one from this city—not even the top brass—moves like that.”He stopped pacing and tilted his head.“I know every single person that can do what you just did. Every single one of them.”

The moment the man’s head bounced on the concrete floor—once, twice, and then a third time—an eerie silence gripped the warehouse. The blood smeared across the floor painted a scene so still and tense, they could almost hear the cold metal in the air.However London’s brother didn’t flinch, not visibly. But his sharp eyes caught every detail. The precision, the speed, the utter lack of wasted motion.At that moment his eyebrow lifted subtly.“That can’t be…” he thought, his fingers slowly curling into a fist by his side. “That’s the Twin Blade Technique.”He had seen it only a few people do it during his training in the Special Division. It wasn’t a move just anyone could pull off. It was a martial arts technique hidden within the high-ranking military, one that fused shadow movement and speed so flawlessly, it made the user seem like they hadn’t moved at all. But in truth, they’d already attacked and returned to their original position before the victim even blinked.Only a handful

At that moment the call rang once…Twice…Three times.Sophia could barely face the phone, her swollen fingers trembling as the pain throbbed up her arms. Just when she thought she would pass out from panic, the line clicked.“Hello?” Damien’s voice came through, steady and calm, but layered with confusion. “Sophia? I just got to the house. You’re not here—what happened?”Tears poured down her cheeks instantly.“I’m sorry…” she sobbed. “I didn’t mean to. I’m so sorry…”Damien’s tone shifted. He straightened up slightly, brows drawing in. “What? Wait—what’s going on? Is it because you left the house? That’s why you’re crying like this? Are you hurt or something?”She whimpered, her voice breaking between every word. “Yes… I’m hurt… I couldn’t hold on… Damien, I—”Something about her tone didn’t sit right with him. Her words were strange, broken… too much like someone who was trying to say more than they could.Then suddenly, another voice came on the line.A deeper one, Cold, void of

The sound of the chair scraping back was subtle, yet everyone in the room fell quiet the moment London’s brother stood to his feet.At that moment the man who had been torturing Sophia immediately lowered his head and stepped aside like a shadow retreating from light. He didn’t need to be told twice—his presence was no longer needed.Then London’s brother spoke, his voice calm, low, but heavy with authority.“I don’t have all day,” he said, coldly. “This has taken too long already.”His tone wasn’t loud. It didn’t need to be. Every word settled into the walls of the warehouse like the creak of metal under pressure. Final, Sure, Dangerous. Then he began walking—each step measured, firm, quiet.Sophia, barely conscious, stirred.She could hear the faint thud of his boots getting closer.Then she blinked slowly.Her eyes, puffy and red, tried to focus through the haze. Her vision was blurred from pain, from tears, from exhaustion. Her body trembled. Her hands throbbed in sharp waves, p

His fingers grazed the edge of a tool inside the briefcase, and he glanced at her one last time.“Then we’ll force the truth out of you. And by the time we’re done… you won’t even know what hit you.”At that moment the man opened the lower compartment of the metal briefcase and lifted out a small steel object—something that looked like a miniature armor casing. The sharp metallic gleam bounced off the dim light above, and for a moment, Sophia couldn’t even breathe.She watched in horror as he unsnapped the second layer. Inside, a thin row of glinting needles lay in order—longer than average, yet delicate enough to sink beneath the skin without leaving an immediate trace. He picked one, held it between his fingers, and ran it gently across his thumb as if testing its sharpness.Sophia flinched hard against the chair, but the ropes on her wrists only dug deeper into her skin. Her ankles burned with pressure. Her entire body shook, helpless and bound. There was nowhere to run. Nowhere to

At that moment Sophia's throat felt dry, her lips trembling with fear, anger, and helplessness. She couldn’t even blink without tears threatening to fall. Her thoughts ran wild, crashing into each other like waves in a storm.‘If I say anything... if I mention Damien…’Her heart clenched painfully. ‘Everything I’ve been planning, all the little steps I’ve taken to get close to him—just to be the woman standing beside him—will never work out. If I ever betray him like this… even once… it's over.’At that moment she bit her lip hard.‘Damien will never look at me the same way. He'll never trust me. He’ll never forgive me. And if he doesn’t trust me, how am I supposed to mean anything to him?’Her gaze dropped to the cold concrete floor, then slowly back to the man still staring at her with lifeless eyes. He was waiting. Pressuring. Ready to pounce if she spoke the wrong word.Her mind kept racing. Even if I stay quiet… even if Damien does show up… this isn’t just street-level thugs anym

Hearing what the man just said Sophia’s entire body froze.Her breath caught halfway in her throat as her eyes darted across the room. Her lips quivered, the cold ropes digging into her skin as her wrists trembled against the wooden chair. Fear seeped into her bones like ice water—she didn’t know what they wanted, or why this was happening.The man stood before her, shadowed under the flickering warehouse light. His expression didn’t change. Just cold eyes. Cold lips. Cold silence.Then came the voice—low and sharp like a knife slicing through paper.“You know London, right?”Upon hearing the name, immediately her heart slammed against her chest.Sophia’s head jolted up. “London?” she repeated, her voice a whisper of disbelief.Then, suddenly—everything clicked.Her voice turned sharp, but shaky. “So… London is behind all this?” she asked, blinking fast. “What is going on? What did I do to him? I told him—I told him I didn’t want anything to do with him! I made it clear!”She was brea

At that moment the cold air clung to Sophia’s skin, biting at her like invisible thorns. The rough ropes cut into her wrists, but she barely noticed.Because now, the realization hit her, She was in a warehouse.Then her lips parted, dry, trembling as her eyes blinked rapidly, trying to adjust to the light above. Her head ached, her body stiff, but her instinct screamed louder than the pain. She was in danger.At that moment She turned her head slowly, carefully, scanning the space around her, and then—her eyes landed on him.A figure. Seated across the room. His posture relaxed, but everything about him screamed threat. One leg crossed casually over the other, his hands resting on the armrest of the chair like a king surveying his prisoner.His gaze was locked on her.It was Cold, Piercing, Deadly.At that moment Sophia froze.Her breath caught in her throat as her vision gradually sharpened, the fog in her eyes slowly lifting… inch by inch… until the man’s face came into focus.And

Seeing what just happened.“Master George!” Serenity cried, rushing to her grandfather’s side. “Please check him! Something’s wrong!”Master George, who had been frozen in place from everything that had just transpired, jolted back to awareness. He quickly moved over, his face pale with urgency as he knelt beside the old man.“Step aside,” he muttered, pulling out a small diagnostic kit from his bag as he began checking the old man’s pulse. His fingers pressed gently against the wrinkled skin at the wrist, then to the side of the neck. His brows furrowed.Serenity hovered beside them, wringing her hands anxiously. “Is he alright? Is he okay? What’s happening? Why did he collapse like that?!”Master George looked up after a moment and let out a slow breath. “He didn’t faint,” he said carefully. “His vitals are normal. He’s just… he’s just in shock, Serenity. The kind of emotional shock that drains the body completely. He needs to rest.”Serenity blinked in disbelief. “Shock?” she whis
