He opened the pouch and carefully started measuring a stronger dose in his hand.Serenity was about to object—she looked hesitant, unsure. But before she could say anything, her grandfather stirred on the bed, opened his mouth as though to speak—and collapsed.Before he could say no he passed out.Upon hearing seeing what had just happened Serenity’s heart skipped as her grandfather's body went limp beneath her grip. “Grandpa?” Her voice cracked. “Grandpa?!”Her hands shook violently as she leaned closer, her face pale, breath staggered. “Elvis!” she cried out, her eyes wide, panic seeping through her every word. “Do something! Please, Elvis, do something—he’s not breathing! My grandfather is dead, he’s dead—please!”“Serenity, calm down—” Elvis rushed to the bedside, knelt beside the unconscious man, and quickly pressed two fingers to his pulse point.At that moment Seconds crawled.Then he exhaled. “He’s not dead. He fainted. He’s breathing… just very weakly.”Serenity let out a gas

Upon hearing what serenity just said Elvis's hand froze in midair, the crushed herbs clinging to his fingers. Serenity’s voice had cut through the air like a blade.“Stop!” she had shouted again.And now, silence wrapped the room, thick and choking.He slowly lowered his hand, his eyes avoiding hers. The weight of the disappointment crushed his chest—he could feel it swelling there like something stuck, something painful. This was his one chance to prove he mattered, to prove he could be the one Serenity relied on. But now…Now everything felt lost.He looked at her grandfather lying motionless on the bed, the blood still fresh at the corners of his eyes. The room smelled faintly of the herbs, sharp and earthy—but all Elvis could taste was failure.without being told she could tell If her grandfather didn't make it, Serenity would blame him. Even if she didn’t say it out loud, she would feel it. And worse, he would know it was true.Immediately a low, shaky breath escaped his lips as

At that moment Elvis still standing beside his car, his hand still gripping the door handle, but he hadn’t opened it yet. His mind was a battlefield—rage and desperation crashing against reason. The idea still lingered like poison in his chest.‘Should I just end him?’But the second that thought returned, so did the image of Serenity’s face if she ever found out. That girl who once looked at him with respect, with trust… she would kill him. Not with her hands, maybe—but with her eyes. With her silence. With her distance.And Elvis couldn't survive that.He pulled his hand away from the door, sighing through gritted teeth. “No,” he muttered, forcing the thought out of his head. “She’ll never forgive me. She’ll destroy me.”But then came another sting—the one that ate at him deeper.“Damien, that bastard. Always calm, always quiet, always acting like he didn’t want anything… and yet he was winning. Serenity cared about him. More than she admitted.” And Elvis knew it.His throat tighte

Her grandfather stepped forward, tone calm but firm. “London, you’re wrong. She just came in not long ago. Barely ten minutes before you arrived.”Her father nodded in agreement. “We were outside when a car drove her in. It can’t be a coincidence that you’re both arriving around the same time. Whatever is upsetting you—maybe you should calm down and talk to her.”But that only made London’s face twist in rage. “Coincidence?” he scoffed. “You think this is coincidence?”He took a deep breath, barely able to contain his shaking.“Fine. Let me tell you why I came here.”At that moment both men were silent.“I came to tell you that I’m done. I’m not going to have anything to do with Sophia again,” he declared.Immediately Their expressions shifted—confusion, disbelief.London continued, his words sharp, his voice edged with disgust. “Sophia went to go sleep with that village doctor. She spent the night with that village bastard—and for what? Just because he was able to heal Mr. Nathaniel,

The moment London’s words settled in the room, tension wrapped itself around everyone like thick smoke. Now the air was suffocating.Sophia’s grandfather mother was the first to speak up, her voice trembling. “London, please… just calm down. Don’t do anything rash.”Sophia’s father stepped forward quickly. “She’s just being childish, okay? You know how stubborn she can be. But it hasn’t gotten to this, London. It really hasn’t.”Even her mother, who’d remained silent until now, nodded quickly. “She doesn’t mean what she’s saying… she’s upset, that’s all. You two have history, deep history from childhood. Please, don’t let this ruin everything.”But Sophia stood there, arms crossed, face calm and unwavering.“I meant every word I said,” she replied coolly. “And even if the Supreme King signs anything with them, that deal is still nothing compared to what Demian can actually bring to this family.”At that moment they all turned to look at her in disbelief, but she didn’t stop.“So all

Everyone’s eyes turned to her. Sophia’s fists clenched at her side, her jaw tightening. But her grandfather didn’t pause.“We have kept quiet too much,” he said. “We have given you too much freedom. Too much leverage. And now, look what you're doing with it—misusing it!”At that moment he turned away for a second as if trying to calm himself, then looked back at her. “You think you can throw away everything we’ve built for some stranger? You better be mindful, Sophia. Mindful of the way you talk, of the way you behave. Because right now, I am already angry at you.”London, who had remained quiet for a while, finally stepped forward. His expression was cold, his shoulders squared as he spoke with calm pride.“I didn’t come here for Sophia to apologize,” he said, voice low and sharp. “I only came here to inform all of you that I am no longer interested.”But deep down, as he said those words, something tightened in his chest. He was hoping. Hoping she would stop him. Hoping she would br

At that moment the silence cracked like glass under a heavy foot. Everyone stared at Sophia.Immediately her grandfather blinked twice, trying to process what he thought he misheard. Her father’s jaw clenched. Even London, so full of himself a moment ago, faltered. His proud smirk twitched uncertainly.Then Sophia took a step forward. Her shoe echoed on the polished floor, each sound loud in the heavy silence.“You all thought I was going to beg him?” Her voice was steady, but there was something raw just beneath it. “Is that what you were waiting for? For me to kneel down and cry and say ‘I’m sorry, London’? After everything?”At that moment in time her grandfather’s eyes darkened even more. “Sophia, enough.”“No,” she said sharply, cutting through the tension. “No, Grandpa. You said I should apologize, for disrespecting him. But did anyone stop to ask what respect he gave me in the first place?”She turned to London. “Tell them, London. Tell them how you called me a disgrace. How y

At that moment London’s fists clenched at his sides. His breathing grew heavier, and his jaw locked. The smirk he had worn a moment ago had completely vanished, replaced by a tight-lipped scowl.He wanted to lash out, before he could say anything, Sophia stepped forward, past him, and walked to where her grandfather sat stiffly. Her voice dropped to a soft whisper, only meant for the old man’s ears. “Grandfather… I’m sorry I spoke like that in front of you. I didn’t mean to embarrass you.”The words were sincere, and the old man could hear it—but he said nothing.She didn’t wait for his response, With her back straight and eyes forward, Sophia walked out of the room.Immediately Silence followed her,until London snapped.His voice echoed through the room, sharp and venomous. “This is the girl you were defending? This is the same girl I thought you trained?”Immediately he turned on Sophia’s grandfather, pointing with disbelief. “You said you’d disown her if she walked out. Well, she

“I heard you,” Serenity finally said, her voice low and cold. “I’ll keep your identity safe.”Her eyes didn’t meet his again. She simply turned around and walked out of the mansion with slow, heavy steps. The weight of what she had just learned made it feel like she was dragging chains behind her.She didn’t say goodbye, she didn’t even glance at Sophia grandfather again.Sliding into the driver’s seat of her car, she closed the door quietly behind her. But inside her chest, her heart was pounding like thunder.She gripped the steering wheel tightly, staring ahead through the windshield, but not really seeing anything. Her mind had started spiraling.‘Damien?’ she repeated the name silently. Damien is the Miraculous Doctor’s apprentice? Suddenly, puzzle pieces she had ignored for months started falling into place.That one time she saw him walking through the military headquarters—people acted like he belonged there. No one stopped him. No one questioned him.And with the Brain, she t

At that moment the room fell into a brief silence, Serenity’s grandfather slowly sank back into his chair, his hand still lightly resting on the gavel as if it gave him the authority to keep destiny in check. His gaze was steady, but behind his composed face, his thoughts swirled like a storm.Everything’s falling into place… slowly, but surely.Then he crossed one leg over the other, eyes flickering toward Sophia, who now stood by the doorway with tight lips and eyes filled with conflict. She looked too emotional, too attached, too naive.‘If I can just drive a wedge between her and that boy—Damien…’Then he inhaled deeply, leaning back further in his chair, hiding the cruel smile tugging at the edge of his lips.Without being told he knew Damien won’t forgive her.No man would… not after having his identity sold out by the same woman family.His fingers tapped lightly on the armrest even more. ‘It’s only a matter of time before he finds out. And when he does, who else will he blame

Serenity nodded without hesitation. Her expression remained calm, though her heart beat steadily in her chest. She stretched out her hand and passed the badge forward. There was no tremble in her fingers.Just then, Sophia’s father stood up sharply from his seat.“This is enough,” he snapped, his voice filled with restrained fury. “Father, stop this. I’ve kept quiet for too long, but I don’t like this anymore. It’s getting out of hand.”He turned toward Serenity, his tone no less firm. “What we’re doing here—it’s not right. Using a woman’s honor as leverage? Blackmailing her for the identity of a man who saved us?”He looked down, his fists clenched at his sides. “This will not end well. And I don’t want to be part of this.”At that moment Serenity stepped forward, her voice quiet yet unwavering.“Don’t worry,” she said gently, locking eyes with him. “I’m not going to give their identity out.”“I’m not going to say I got the identity from you,” Serenity said quietly, her words steady

The moment Serenity uttered those words, a slow, satisfied smile tugged at the corners of Sophia’s grandfather’s mouth. Immediately his eyes gleamed—like a hunter who had just cornered his prey.Still he couldn't believe Serenity actually accepted, without being told he could tell whatever she decided the identity for most be extremely important, then he decided to leverage more on it.“Now you’ve made a wise decision,” he said, his voice filled with satisfaction. “Finally. Now we can talk real business.”At that moment he leaned forward slightly, resting both hands on his cane, the air around him suddenly heavier with authority. “Once you speak with the Supreme King… once you put in a good word for us, just as you’ve promised… then you will get what you came for. You have my word.”Upon hearing what Sophia grandfather just said, Serenity’s expression didn’t change, but the tension in her jaw said enough. She had expected pushback. But not this… not a sudden shift of terms.“That wa

At that moment the room went quiet immediately. His son clenched his jaw but said nothing. He slowly lowered his eyes and took a step back, biting back the words that had risen to his tongue. He had seen that look on his father’s face before — the look that said not another word. Pushing now would only make things worse.But deep down, he was unsettled about everything.If Serenity could walk in here and offer anything to buy the identity of that man… if they accepted and the news got out — would anyone ever trust them again? His thoughts raced. What about if any of them needed help from the miracle doctor? Would he even come here again?He looked at Serenity, standing tall and unreadable, her arms crossed, her gaze sharp but calm. She wasn’t bluffing. She meant every word. She had the power to reward them greatly — or walk away and never return.Sophia’s father swallowed hard. ‘She’s serious. If we help her… we’ll get favor. But at what cost?’However Sophia grandfather didn’t waver

At that moment As Serenity turned, her boots clicking against the tiled floor, her words still echoed in the air: “I’ll offer him something he won’t be able to reject.”Immediately Sophia’s jaw clenched.She didn’t move at first—just stared after Serenity, her fingers slowly curling into a fist at her side. Heat rose to her chest. Not the kind that came from fear, but the kind that boiled under layers of held-back restraint. ‘How dare she come into their home and speak like that?’At that moment Sophia finally stepped forward, her voice sharp but composed. “So that’s why you came?” she asked, staring directly at Serenity’s back. “To threaten my family?”Serenity paused but didn’t turn.Sophia took one more step. “You know, I understand your reputation. You’re the war goddess. We’re not equals. Exchanging words with you alone feels like asking for a fight I didn’t even pick.”Then Serenity’s head tilted slightly, but she still didn’t face her.However Sophia’s voice dropped a little,

Upon hearing what London just said, Sophia’s eyes narrowed slightly, her voice calm but firm. “Like I said before, London… I don’t have anything to think about.”She folded her arms. “You can go. Do whatever you want. It’s not my business anymore.”Still her tone didn’t crack. No fear, no guilt. Just finality.London stood frozen for a second. His lips pressed into a hard line as he scanned her from head to toe—slowly. His eyes held a mix of disbelief, anger, and bitter disappointment. But mostly, bruised pride, seeing Sophia rejecting him over and over again.Immediately his jaw clenched. “You really meant it…” he muttered under his breath, like he couldn’t believe it was actually happening.Then his voice rose.“So that’s it?” he barked. “You walk away from everything—just like that?”He scoffed bitterly and pointed toward her. “Because some fool from the gutter was lucky enough to save your grandfather, now you think he’s good enough for you?”However Sophia remained silent. Not ev
