Without being told he was well aware the sooner he gets all ten the better.

Leaving Mr.Leo and home.

As Damien approached the entrance to his villa, he noticed something unusual. The usually quiet street was now teeming with tension. Black SUVs were parked haphazardly, their headlights cutting through the twilight, while armed guards formed a perimeter around the area.

The faint hum of communication devices and the occasional barked orders filled the air.

Seeing what is happening Damien slowed his steps, his sharp eyes scanning the scene.

At that moment a guard stepped forward, raising a hand to halt him. “Sir, this area is under lockdown,” the guard said curtly. “For your safety, we ask that you turn back.”

However Damien couldn't get his head around everything, knowing it was his house he couldn't just leave without not kn

The man exuded danger, the kind that came from years of training and countless battles. This was the same fugitive Serenity and her team were outside preparing to confront—a man feared for his skill and brutality.However Damien remained unfazed.“That’s my property you’re standing in,” Damien said calmly, his voice like steel wrapped in silk. “Drop the knife, and I might let you leave alive.”Upon hearing what Damien just said.The fugitive sneered, tightening his hold on the child. “You’re in no position to make threats,” he spat. “I’ve taken down people ten times stronger than you. Don’t test me.”At that moment Damien’s eyes narrowed slightly. “I wasn’t asking.”The fugitive’s instincts screamed at him to act, first seeing Damien he could tell he's just a nobody Perhaps a rich kid with a big

    Serenity tapped her fingers against the armrest, her eyes narrowing slightly. “He’s either the smartest man we’ve hunted or something far more dangerous than the intel suggests,” she said, her voice calm but heavy with thought.“But there’s something else bothering me.”“The civilian, the doctor you saved outside the mansion the other day and almost left you for dead, if not for Dr Elvis' quick intervention?” her assistant asked tentatively.Immediately Serenity nodded. “Why did the fugitive spare him? A man like that doesn’t leave witnesses. There’s more to this Damien than meets the eye.”Upon hearing what War Goddess Serenity just said.Her assistant hesitated, unsure of what to say. “Should we bring him in for questioning?”“No,” Serenity replied firmly. “Not yet. Let the team finish their search. If the fugitive left anything behind—or anyone—I want to know about it first.”As they pulled into the headquarters parking lot, Serenity’s sharp instincts told her that the day eve

    Not long after they arrived at Damien villa.Serenity stood at the gate of the villa, her sharp gaze scanning the luxurious property before her. The questions swirling in her mind had grown too loud to ignore. Despite her earlier dismissal of her assistant's theories, something about Damien didn't sit right with her again. She needed answers, and she was determined to get them herself.Not long after the door opened to reveal Damien, his expression cool and unreadable as he looked at her. “ Serenity,” he said evenly, stepping aside to let her in. “This is unexpected.”Serenity entered without hesitation, her posture as commanding as ever. “I had some questions for you,” she said, her tone clipped. “I thought it best to address them directly.”Damien gestured toward the sitting area, his movements calm and unhurried. “Make yourself comfortable,” he said casually, as though he were entertaining an old friend rather than one of the nation’s most decorated military figures.Serenity’s

She had just been briefed by the receptionist and, though slightly nervous, was eager to assist. As a relatively new hire, Barbara hadn’t yet had the chance to make a significant sale, and she wasn’t expecting much from Damien.“Good afternoon, sir,” Barbara greeted politely. “I understand you’re looking for a vehicle today?”At that moment Damien nodded, his demeanor calm yet purposeful. “Yes. I’d like to see your highest-spec model.”Upon. hearing what Damien just said Barbara blinked in surprise. “Of course. Would you like me to walk you through the features, or would you prefer to test drive it first?”“No need for a test drive,” Barbara said, his tone firm. “Let’s go straight to the paperwork.”For a moment, Barbara was stunned. Most customers, especially those considering such an expensive purchase, were cautious and meticulous. They woul

    With a growing tension in the scene.Not long after the sound of hurried footsteps caught his attention. Turning slightly, he saw the dealership manager approaching, his expression a mix of urgency and deference. The manager, a well-dressed man in his late forties, exuded professionalism, but there was an unmistakable nervousness in his stride.“Mr. Damien,” the manager called, his tone respectful as he reached where Damien was seated.At that moment Damien raised his head to meet his gaze. “Yes?”At that moment the manager offered a polite smile, his hands clasped in front of him. “I apologize for interrupting, but we have a matter to discuss regarding your purchase.”Upon hearing what the manager just said.Megan, who had been watching from a distance, with a look of disappointment in her eyes, seeing David couldn't do anything early, narrowed her eyes in suspicion. She had expected Damien to be humiliated and kicked out, not be approached by the highest-ranking employee in th

    Seeing everything that was happening David stood rooted to the spot, his arms crossed as he replayed the scene in his mind. He had expected to confront Damien, embarrass him, maybe even get him thrown out of the dealership. Instead, he had witnessed the manager's unprecedented deference and the smooth transaction for a car that was far beyond the reach of most people. Something didn’t add up.Everything looks so confusing, without being told he could tell Damien was hiding something.Slowly he walked closer to Megan, and pulled out his phone and dialed Jessica's number. She picked up almost immediately, her voice sharp and impatient.“What is it, David? I’m busy.”“You’re not going to believe this,” David said, still trying to process what he’d seen. “I just saw Damien at the dealership. He bought one of the most expensive cars there—and got this—the manager treated him like royalty.”Upon hearing what David just said There was a pause on the other end before Jessica responded, her

    Damien gripped the steering wheel, his eyes focused on the road ahead as the low hum of the engine filled the car. Although he has declined all that the manager throws at him, he didn't want a party or photoshoot with the car, all that doesn't matter to him.The newly purchased vehicle felt smooth, powerful—fitting for the goals he had quietly set for himself. Yet, there was no excitement on his face, no satisfaction from the luxury now in his possession. For him, it was just a tool, nothing more.At that moment his phone buzzed on the passenger seat, pulling him out of his thoughts. He glanced at the caller ID and sighed. It was Jessica. Without much enthusiasm, he picked up.“What is it?” Damien ’s voice was calm, almost detached.“Well, hello to you too,” Jessica replied, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “Don’t sound too excited, thinking I will be wasting my time calling you when I have some other better issues to settle, well I’ve got something important to tell you.”Hearing

    At that moment Serenity’s gaze bore into Damien, her voice steady but edged with accusation. “Before I passed out that night,” she began, her words measured, “I heard your voice. And I saw you standing there.”Hearing what Serenity just said.Damien’s expression remained unreadable, but she caught the faintest flicker of something in his eyes—perhaps recognition or acknowledgment, though he masked it quickly. He stayed silent, his composure unshaken, but Serenity pressed on.“And me partner,”she continued, her tone sharpening. “The man they sent here—strong, skilled, and trained as he was—even he struggled to land a finger on that fugitive. He fought hard, but that man was beyond him. I saw it with my own eyes.” Her voice wavered slightly at the memory, but she steadied herself, her determination burning through her words.However Damien tilted his head slightly, his lips curling into a faint, almost amused smile, as though her probing meant little to him. But inside, his thoughts ra

    At that moment Damien watched Serenity’s face closely, observing the flicker of anger that briefly crossed her features before she quickly masked it. However Her restraint didn’t go unnoticed, and it made Damien curious. Without bring told he could tell she was upset, clearly, but she wouldn’t let it show—not yet.He leaned back in his chair, his lips curling into a faint smirk. “You know, Serenity,” he began, his tone casual but cutting, “I actually thought you invited me here to apologize. Silly me. I should’ve known better. You’ve always got some other motives, don’t you?”At that moment Serenity’s eyes narrowed, but her expression remained composed. Then she folded her arms and tilted her head slightly, as though considering his words.However Inside, her frustration burned, but she refused to let him see it. He’s testing me. She knows Damien was testing her, and he's trying to get under her skin.“That’s my work, Damien,” she replied coolly, her voice carrying an edge of de

    Upon getting home, Damien tossed his keys onto the kitchen counter as he walked into his home, his mind weighed down by the prospect of meeting Serenity. He had no desire to see her. In fact, he had actively avoided her, knowing full well that any interaction would lead to her inevitable criticisms and sly remarks.However Serenity’s words were like precision arrows, always finding their mark, and Damien wasn’t in the mood for another verbal sparring match with her.He leaned against the counter, his jaw tightening. ‘Why does she even want to see me?’ he thought bitterly. ‘This wasn’t just about catching up; she always had an agenda.’ And yet, despite his better judgment, Damien couldn’t completely ignore her request. Something about the way she had demanded his presence gnawed at him. He sighed heavily.Knowing he still want to ask her something.Maybe it’s better to just get this over with.

Damien asked, the weariness in his voice obvious."Hello Damien," the voice on the other end of the line said, her tone polite and slightly nervous. "I hope I'm not interrupting anything. I can call back later if you're busy."Damien, though tired, forced a smile at the sound of her voice. "No, Sophia, it's fine. How have you been?" he inquired.Sophia's voice brightened noticeably. "I've been great, Damien. In fact, I have some wonderful news to share with you!" she exclaimed, her excitement infectious.Sophia's voice bubbled with excitement. "Damien, I have amazing news!

The guests, once smug and condescending, now exchanged uneasy glances, their bravado replaced by a creeping sense of dread. Jefferson, however, attempted to maintain his composure.

The ballroom was a sea of polished faces and hushed whispers, all centered around the long, gilded table at the room's heart.
