Eva’s heart ached hearing the hesitation in her father’s voice. She knew that Bruce still held some attachment to the Carters, despite how they had treated him and his family over the years. But this wasn’t the time for sentimentality. Chris was risking everything to protect them, to ensure that their home wasn’t destroyed, and she wasn’t about to let her father hold onto false loyalties.

“Dad,” Eva began softly, reaching out to place her hand on his arm. “I know it’s hard. But the Carters have always treated us like we’re less than them. You know that. They’ve never cared about us, not really. They’ve humiliated you, belittled you… and now, they’ve destroyed our home.”

Bruce remained silent, his face drawn tight with conflicting emotions.

Eva continued, her voice growing firmer. “We can’t keep forgiving them just because they’re family. Look at what they’ve done to us. To Mom. To Chris. It’s time we stand up for ourselves.”

    Brian, watching from behind the gate, stood frozen in place, his eyes wide with disbelief. His perfect day had turned into a nightmare. How could this be happening? No one had ever dared to defy the Carter family so openly. The other members of the family who had gathered at the gate were equally as dumbfounded, their faces pale with fear. None of them dared to approach Ethan after witnessing how effortlessly he had dismantled their security team.Ethan, still seated in the truck, smirked at their cowardice. “Hmph, pathetic,” he muttered, tossing the coins in his hand with a smug grin.For a moment, there was only silence. The once proud Carters were left speechless, their power and influence seemingly meaningless in the face of this single young man who had single-handedly rendered their defenses useless.After dealing with the guards, Ethan remained where he was, seated in the truck’s front seat, still blocking the entrance. Chris had ordered him to ensure that no one left the Cart

    The young man outside their gate—some unknown thug in a construction truck—had blocked the main entrance to the Carter estate, and worse, he had effortlessly taken down all their security guards. This wasn’t some ordinary street rat; whoever he was, he had come prepared. Benjamin stopped at the wide bay window, gazing out over the sprawling grounds of the estate. Even from this distance, he could see the hulking silhouette of the construction truck parked defiantly at the gate. It hadn’t moved for hours, and the man inside hadn’t made any demands—he was simply there, waiting. The air around the estate felt thick with impending chaos, and Benjamin hated the feeling of being out of control. The Carter family had always thrived on power, on dominance over others, but now, their vulnerability was exposed for all to see. With every passing minute, the tension within the household escalated. The security guards had been dispatched quickly, and now the family huddled inside, anxiously awai

    There was an immediate murmur of relief among the Carters. The Johnson family were one of the low tier elite families in Brooklyn and the Carter family closet neighbors. Both Benjamin Carter and Liam Johnson, The head of Johnson family grew up together as close friends so Benjamin thought it would be convenient to ask if his friend could help him out of this problem. Benjamin wasted no time in making the call. His phone rang several times before a gruff voice answered on the other end. “What is it ?” Liam Johnson asked as soon as he picked up the phone call. Benjamin sensed the irritation in Liam Johnson’s voice but he ignored it “Liam, it’s Benjamin Carter.” There was a beat of silence before Liam Johnson, replied, “What do you want? I don’t have time for pleasantries.” Benjamin swallowed his pride, forcing a smile into his voice. “We’ve encountered a bit of a situation. A young man—some thug—has blocked the entrance to our estate with a construction truck. He’s taken out al

    Chris turned toward Ethan and spoke in a low, even tone. “Ram the truck into the house.”Ethan’s eyes lit up with an almost childlike glee, his grin widening. “With pleasure.”Without hesitation, Ethan waved at the driver of the construction truck. The hulking vehicle’s engine roared to life, its mechanical growl sending a shiver through the mansion. The truck lurched forward, picking up speed as it barreled straight toward the Carter estate’s front gate.The gate, already bent from earlier, crumpled completely under the force of the truck’s impact. The walls groaned as the truck pushed through, bricks tumbling to the ground in a chaotic cascade of destruction. The carefully manicured lawn was torn to shreds as the truck plowed ahead, leaving a trail of devastation in its wake.Screams erupted from the Carters who had been standing near the entrance, watching in horror as their once-imposing estate was reduced to rubble. Some ran for cover, while others stood frozen, too shocked to mo

    Chris stopped in his tracks, just a few feet away from Brian now. His eyes, dark and unreadable, fixed on Brian with a coldness that sent a shiver down his spine. For a moment, there was only silence, a thick, tense silence that seemed to stretch on for an eternity. The other Carters, who had gathered at the scene, stood frozen, unsure of what would happen next.Then, with a slow, deliberate motion, Chris spoke, his voice a low growl that echoed in the air. “The Johnsons?” He let out a mirthless chuckle. “Do you really think the they are going to save you, Eric?”Brian’s mouth opened, but no words came out. He had always relied on the family’s connections to get them out of tough situations, and the Hales had been a source of protection for years. But something in Chris’s demeanor—his absolute certainty—made Brian hesitate. There was something different about this man. He wasn’t the weak, downtrodden son-in-law they had once disdained.Chris took a step closer, his eyes narrowing. “T

    Brian’s face twisted in confusion. “What? What the hell are you talking about?” he muttered and turned to look at Benjamin who also had the same confused look on his face.“What rubbish are you yabbying about? Liam promised to send you guards to help us out.” Benjamin remarked in confusion.“You are mistaken, Patriarch Benjamin.” The lead man straightened, his expression hardening. “The Johnsons are no longer interested in protecting the Carters. You’re on your own.”The words hit Benjamin like a punch to the gut. His knees buckled slightly, and he grabbed at the air, as if trying to hold onto some sense of reality. “No… that’s not possible,” he muttered, shaking his head in disbelief. “The Johnson…… they’ve always been our allies…”“Since when have we been allies,” the lead man said, his voice cold and final. Benjamin’s mouth opened, but no sound came out. He stumbled backward, his face pale and stricken, as if the very ground beneath him had just crumbled away. Indeed, it was true

    As Chris drove toward the Carter family’s new residence, the tension in the car was palpable. Chris’s jaw was set, his thoughts churning. He knew where they lived—it wasn’t hard to find—but confronting them so directly was a calculated risk.When he arrived, the mansion loomed in quiet grandeur, its façade belying the chaos within. Benjamin Carter himself opened the door, his expression shifting from surprise to unease as he recognized Chris.“You…,” Benjamin began cautiously, surprised to see Chris alone at their house. The last time Chris paid a visit to the Carter ended up becoming a tragic incident for the Carters. “What brings you here?”Chris didn’t respond, brushing past him into the house. Benjamin, caught off guard, quickly closed the door and followed him into the living room.Elliot lingered near the entrance, his posture relaxed but vigilant. Benjamin was surprised to see Elliot as well. “Mr…Mr Brown….” He stuttered, casting him a wary glance, noticing the subtle differen

    Chris knew that his peaceful life with Eva would surely be disrupted. He could put Eva and her loved ones in a lot of danger. Moreover, leaving now, with Eva dealing with the Carter situation, felt equally impossible as he didn't want to leave her unprotected.“Sir?” Ethan’s voice broke through his thoughts. “What are your orders?”Chris hesitated, his voice betraying the conflict he felt. “Stay on this and keep me updated. I need to think.”“Understood, sir,” Ethan said, his tone respectful. “And for what it’s worth, I know how much sir, James means to you. We’ll do everything we can to bring him back.”Chris ended the call and sat in silence for a long moment. The thought of James—strong, unyielding James—being captured felt like a punch to the gut. But the thought of leaving Eva behind, especially now, felt just as wrong. He was at a crossroads, and no matter which path he chose, the stakes were unbearably high.---Eva, meanwhile, sat at her desk, trying to focus on the tasks in

    Chris kept his focus on the road, but his thoughts repeatedly drifted to Eva seated beside him. Her gaze was distant, her fingers nervously fiddling with the strap of her handbag. He could tell the morning's encounter with the Carters was weighing heavily on her.After a few moments of silence, Chris spoke, his voice calm and steady. “Eva, I know it’s a lot to process, but you don’t have to keep it all bottled up. Talk to me.”Eva sighed and shifted in her seat. “It’s just… they showed up out of nowhere. Again. It’s exhausting, Chris. I keep wondering why now, why after all these years?”Chris glanced at her briefly before returning his eyes to the road. “People like the Carters often realize the value of what they’ve lost only when it’s too late. But you don’t owe them anything, Eva. Not an explanation, not a second chance—nothing.”Eva shook her head, frustration creeping into her tone. “It’s not that simple. They’re still my family, even if they’ve hurt me. And now with them grovel

    Benjamin quickly intervened, his tone desperate. “Please, Eva, don’t let his foolish words ruin this. I’m truly sorry for everything. I know I failed you, and I failed Bruce. We should have stood by you instead of casting you out. Please, give us a chance to make things right.”“I don't think everyone agrees with the motive of apologizing for your wrongdoings so I can't believe that your apologies are sincere.” Bruce remarked.Benjamin turned to Eric, his expression hardening. “Eric,” he said, his voice stern. “You owe them an apology.”Eric's usually confident demeanor was gone, replaced by a nervous energy that made him look small and uncertain. Benjamin turned to him, his expression hardening.Eric’s eyes darted between Eva, Kate, and Bruce. “I—”“Now,” Benjamin commanded.Eric swallowed hard, his gaze finally landing on Eva. “I’m sorry,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper.Eva’s eyes narrowed. “Sorry? For what, exactly?”“For everything,” Eric said, his voice shaking. “For

    Benjamin hesitated, taking in the luxurious yet understated decor that surrounded them. This was Chris’s doing—he could see it in every detail. The man had built a fortress, a sanctuary for Eva and her family.They were foolish to not have recognized his talent and worth all these years that had him living amongst them.“I came to apologize,” Benjamin said, his voice steady despite the storm of emotions inside him. “To you, to your family. And... to make things right.”Kate let out a bitter laugh. “Make things right? That’s rich, coming from you. Do you think showing up here with an apology is enough to undo everything you’ve done?”“I don’t,” Benjamin admitted, his gaze dropping to the floor. “But I had to try. I know I don’t deserve your forgiveness, but I need you to hear me out.”Eva folded her arms, studying him with a cold, calculating gaze. “Then speak.”Benjamin could see that it was impossible to get through Eva judging by the cold stare in her eyes. He stepped forward. “Bruc

    As the night deepened, Eric and the two representatives sat in their car, the weight of their desperation growing heavier with each passing moment. They had hoped that Eva would still come out of the building as they didn't want to admit that she could be living in such an expensive mansion.However, it finally dawned upon them that Eva wasn't coming out after waiting for several hours. Eric felt bitter as it pained him to see that Eva was living the life of luxury….. the kind he always dreamed about.The Carter's drove back home in subtle silence and even though nothing was said the other representative could feel Eric burning rage but the main problem was thinking about how Benjamin would react when he heard the news of their discovery.****The Morning sunlight streamed through the windows of the luxurious mansion, casting a golden glow over the spacious interiors.

    Eva returned home that evening, her mind clouded with thoughts of the Carters' audacious behavior earlier that day. The memory of Eric's arrogant tone and his entitlement grated on her nerves, but she was determined not to let it ruin her evening. She stepped into the warm, inviting ambiance of the mansion, finding Chris seated in the living room, a glass of wine in hand and an air of calm about him.“Welcome back,” Chris greeted, his voice soft as he looked up at her. His sharp eyes immediately noted the tension in her posture. “Rough day?”Eva exhaled and sat down beside him, kicking off her heels. “You could say that,” she replied, leaning back against the plush cushions. “The Carters were at Cross Corporation again today.”Chris’s hand tightened slightly around his glass, though he kept his expression neutral. “What did they want this time?”“They were begging for a meeting,” Eva said, shaking her head. “I refused to see them, but they didn’t leave. They waited in the reception ar

    As the Carters waited in the reception area of Cross Corporation, the tension in the air was palpable. Time seemed to crawl as they sat in near silence, the occasional murmur of distant phone calls and the soft hum of the building’s air conditioning system providing little comfort. Eric, his hands clenched into tight fists, could hardly sit still. The humiliation of being here—forced to beg for forgiveness from Eva, a woman who had once been part of their family, yet now was their greatest obstacle—was eating away at him. Every minute that ticked by felt like an eternity. The receptionist, efficient and unfazed by their presence, had told them that Eva was unavailable. That alone was enough to set Eric’s nerves on edge. Alan, the other representative accompanying him, tried to keep the peace, suggesting they wait patiently. “This is our only shot, Eric,” he said quietly. “We can't afford to make things worse.” But Eric was past the point of patience.

    The incident at the Carter residence had left a trail of rumors and whispers that had quickly spread through the high society of Brooklyn. Every elite family, once rivals or allies of the Carters, now speculated about the cause of the downfall. But no one dared to point fingers at the one responsible, especially not at Chris, the lowly son-in-law. After all, who would ever suspect a man living under another family’s roof? Yet, beneath the surface, Chris was the mastermind behind the fall of two once-proud families—the Ambroses and the Carters.Days had passed since the fall of the Carter family, and their reputation, once untouchable, was now a shadow of its former self. Their vast wealth had been seized by the banks, leaving them with nothing more than a dilapidated Victorian house to call home. Benjamin, the patriarch of the Carter family, sat in the small living room of their new residence, surrounded by his relatives. The room was filled with heavy silence, as each person seemed l
