Benjamin was currently in a dilemma. He was furious at Brian but that didn't mean he would condemn his own son.

“Father, please save him…. I'll do anything to repent for my sins……anything!. If you give this good for nothing person a chance to do whatever he likes then our house will never be taken any seriously by anyone else” Brian begged profusely.

Chris’s gaze remained cold, unmoving, as he repeated his question. “You are wasting time, Benjamin?”

After a brief thought, Benjamin concluded that he could educate Brian later. Indeed, he just couldn't allow Chris to continue causing a scene at the their residence

“I don't need you to tell me how to discipline my child. I admit he is guilty but it shouldn't concern you how I intend to discipline him for his offense.”

“So you have made that decision. Like I said earlier, I won't back away until I see that everything has been settled.”

“Don't get ahead of yourself, Chris. If we won't be receiving any help from Johnson, there is still the

    Meanwhile, Chris approached Brian admit the chaos and when he arrived in front of Brian, with a single, swift motion, he raised his foot and brought it down hard on Brian’s remaining leg. The sickening crack of bone echoed through the courtyard, followed by a bloodcurdling scream from Brian. His cry of pain was so loud, so visceral, that it sent a ripple of horror through the assembled Carter family members.“Brian!” Benjamin’s voice rang out as he rushed toward his son, his face twisted in desperation. He dropped to his knees beside Brian, his hands trembling as he reached out to hold his son’s broken body. Brian’s eyes were squeezed shut, his body limp from the pain.“Dad!....” Eric also rushed forward. His heart shattered as he realized there was nothing he could do to help. He turned his tear-filled gaze to Chris, fury and desperation mingling in his voice. “You….You….he's my father! How could you do this to him.”Chris swung his feet and used it to strike Eric right cheek. In

    “You think you’ve won?” Eric snarled, his voice shaking with rage as he finally stood. “You think this is over just because you’ve beaten my grandson? You’re wrong, Chris. You’ll always be nothing more than a worthless son-in-law. The Carters will rise again, and when we do, we’ll crush you and your entire family.”Chris turned his head slightly, his gaze falling on Eric. A slow, dangerous smile spread across his face. “You really don’t get it, do you?” he said, his voice low and mocking. “You’ve already lost, Eric. You just don’t know it yet.”As Chris’s words sank in, a low rumble echoed from the distance. The sound grew louder, the unmistakable roar of engines approaching fast. The Carters turned their heads, their faces palling as a fleet of black SUVs came into view, speeding down the long driveway toward the estate.The vehicles came to a sudden stop at the entrance of the courtyard. The doors opened, and a group of men in black suits stepped out, their expressions cold and prof

    Chris’s men continued to move with military precision, securing the estate with a calm efficiency that only increased the tension. The Carters, who had spent years using their wealth and connections to keep control, could do nothing but watch in horror as their empire crumbled around them.“You did all this?” Benjamin stammered, his voice barely audible. “How… how could you—”“You underestimated me,” Chris said, cutting him off. “You thought you could get away with anything because of your name, because of your status. But that ends today. The Carters are finished.”Benjamin opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out. His body trembled as the weight of his defeat crashed down on him. Everything he had worked for, everything he had built, was slipping through his fingers. And there was nothing he could do to stop it.As the operatives continued their work, Chris turned his attention back to Eric, who was now barely conscious, his body broken beyond repair. He crouched down beside

    The Carters gasped in horror, some rushing toward Benjamin, but they froze in fear as Ethan stepped forward, his eyes gleaming with satisfaction.“I told you to keep quiet,” Ethan said coldly. “If you try that again, I’ll make sure you don’t get up.”Benjamin, groaning in pain, glared up at Ethan, but the fire in his eyes was dimmed by the realization of his own powerlessness.Chris, ignoring the groaning patriarch, turned back to Brian, who was still kneeling beside his son. “Let me make one thing clear, if you ever think of making an attempt to cause anymore trouble for my wife then in return I'll make you suffer in many agonizing ways. I really hope that you heed mywarning because it is the lastact of kindness I will show to the Carters.”Chris, his expression calm and composed, stepped forward, addressing Benjamin for the final time. “You brought this on yourself. I gave you every chance to stop, but you refused. Now you’ve lost everything.”Benjamin’s eyes burned with hatred, bu

    Eva frowned slightly, her unease showing. She had always been fiercely independent, never one to feel entitled to anyone else’s possessions, not even her husband’s. Yes, Chris had told her that everything he owned was also hers, but Eva didn’t quite feel comfortable thinking of his wealth as her own. She hadn’t contributed to building his fortune or acquiring his properties, so she didn’t feel she had a right to claim it.But Kate, still starstruck, had a different perspective. She had already begun imagining ways to secure this incredible property for her and her daughter. Kate’s mind spun with ideas as she pulled Eva and Amanda from one room to another, eagerly exploring the mansion as though it was her own.However their tour was cut short when their attention was drawn to the sounds of loud noises coming from the entrance of the mansion.A few minutes earlier, as the four individuals explored the sprawling rooms and hallways, two sleek Bentley made its way up the private road to

    As the car parked near the entrance, Sean’s laughter echoed through the luxurious vehicle, mingling with his companion’s flirtatious giggles.Meanwhile, inside the mansion, Eva heard the sound of an engine outside, and her heart leaped. She thought Chris might have returned from his trip to handle the Carter family’s issues.She made her way to the entrance along with her parents and Amanda , ready to ask Chris about how things had gone. But as they all stepped outside, she stopped abruptly, her smile fading as she took in the sight before her. A chubby, middle-aged man with a sleazy grin was standing by the car and several large, intimidating bodyguards flanked them.Eva’s instinct was immediately to be on guard. This property, including the private road leading up to it and the lake surrounding the island, belonged to Chris. How had these strangers gotten onto the grounds?“Who are you?” she asked, her tone wary as she took a few steps forward.She sensed the men’s gaze swept over

    Sean’s smile disappeared, replaced by a flash of irritation. He was used to getting what he wanted, and he didn’t appreciate being told “no,” especially by someone he considered beneath him. “You’re making a big mistake here, sweetheart. I suggest you rethink your tone.”Amanda, fed up with Sean’s arrogance, took a step forward, her face set with resolve. “She asked you to leave,” she said. “I suggest you listen.”Sean glanced at Amanda, his eyes narrowing slightly. “Well, aren’t you both a pair of fiery ones,” he sneered. “But that’s fine. I like a challenge.”Just then, Kate appeared from inside the mansion, curious about the raised voices outside. She was about to greet the new arrivals, but the sight of the exchange made her pause. Taking in Sean’s smirk and Eva’s clenched jaw, she quickly pieced together the situation.Without hesitation, Kate stepped forward. “Is there a problem here?”Sean’s gaze moved to Kate, and he immediately dismissed her, turning back to Eva and Amanda wi

    Eva quickly pulled Amanda back, stepping protectively in front of her. She raised her chin, refusing to be intimidated by Sean or his bodyguards. “What exactly do you think you’re doing?” she asked coldly. “You’re on private property. Are you planning to assault us?”Sean’s leer deepened, and he took a deliberate step closer. His gaze roamed over Eva’s face, and a twisted smile crept onto his lips. “Assault you?” he mocked, pretending to be shocked. “No, no, you’ve got it all wrong. I don’t want to hurt you ladies. I only think that you two owe me an apology.” His eyes glinted maliciously as he added, “For insulting me, of course. And I’ll be expecting you to make it up to me.”Eva’s stomach churned with disgust. The way he looked at her, the tone of his voice—it was obvious what he was implying. She took a step back, her mind racing for a way out of this situation.Amanda, however, was not one to back down so easily. She poked her head out from behind Eva and shot Sean a defiant glar

    Ethan, who had been waiting by the car, caught sight of her vehicle disappearing into the distance. “Let's head to Cross Corporation.” Chris said As soon as he stepped into the car. Ethan turned to him. "Sir, I just saw the madam's car." Chris’s gaze snapped toward him. "Where?" "She just drove past the hotel. She saw you with Emma." Chris’s brows furrowed. "Follow her." Ethan immediately started the car and pulled out into traffic, but the city’s congestion worked against them. Within minutes, they lost her. Chris clenched his jaw, irritation flickering in his sharp eyes. "Head straight to the mansion," he ordered, hoping she had gone home. But when they arrived, Eva was nowhere to be found but Kate and Bruce were in the house. “You are back home early today?” Kate said with a hint of sarcasm in her tone. Chris ignored her nagging. “Isn't Eva home yet?” “No, she is probably still at work. Do you think everyone is as jobless and irresponsible as you? Kate retorted. For

    About an hour ago, Chris leaned back in his leather chair, his fingers drumming lightly against the polished desk of Pegasus Enterprise. The floor-to-ceiling windows of his office reflected the golden hues of the late afternoon sun, casting long shadows across the luxurious space. He had just finished reviewing a high-profile acquisition deal, but his mind was elsewhere. Eva. He knew he had failed to pick her up the previous evening. It was a minor misstep, but one he didn’t want to repeat. Their relationship was a delicate balance—one he wasn’t willing to tip over. He glanced at his watch. There was still time before Eva was scheduled to leave the Carter estate, but there was another obligation he had to tend to first. Standing, Chris grabbed his suit jacket and slipped it on with effortless precision. "Ethan," he called as he stepped out of his office. Ethan, who had been waiting outside, straightened immediately. "Sir?" "Prepare the car. I’m stopping by the hotel before he

    A few murmurs of agreement rippled through the room. Eva’s gaze sharpened, already sensing Eric’s intention to undermine her. She exhaled slowly, keeping her voice calm yet firm. "I find it amusing that you’re concerned about punctuality when this very meeting was only possible because of the business deals I secured for this family. Or would you prefer to discuss the countless contracts I’ve personally overseen that have elevated the Carter name?" Eric’s smirk faltered for a fraction of a second, but he quickly recovered. "Of course, we acknowledge your contributions. But it isn’t enough. You still have many other responsibilities to the family and as head you need to set an example." Eva folded her arms. "Oh? Do enlighten me." Eric leaned forward, his gaze gleaming with false sincerity. " You know this would have been much easier if you didn't have to drive all the way here.Why don’t you relocate the Carter family to your current mansion? It’s extravagant and more than spacious

    Back in her room, Eva leaned against the door, her hands balled into fists. She groaned in embarrassment, not sure about what she just did. Her mind was a storm of emotions—confusion, frustration, pain. The sight of that lipstick stain haunted her. Her stomach twisted at the mere thought of Chris with another woman. She had spent the entire day yearning for his presence, regretting how she had treated him… only to now be met with something that shattered her fragile resolve. Was she really being foolish? Had she been longing for someone who had already moved on? She shut her eyes, inhaling sharply. This feeling—this uneasiness gnawing at her—was unbearable. But there was nothing she could do about it. Not right now. As the night deepened, Eva lay awake, staring at the ceiling, her heart aching with emotions she didn’t know how to handle. And Chris, on the other side of the mansion, was just as restless—completely unaware of the storm brewing in Eva’s heart. T

    “Where have you been all day, Chris?” Kate’s voice rang through the house. “Do you even know what time it is? You think that you can. Just come and go as you please” Chris’s voice was calm, composed. “I had things to take care of, Mother.” “Oh, so you disappear for days, come back whenever you please, and don’t even think to explain?” “I’m sorry, Mother. I didn’t mean to worry you.” Kate scoffed. “Do you even care about this family? About Eva?” Eva clenched her fists. Why did Mom always have to bring me into everything? Chris remained patient. “I do care, Mother. But I had no choice. I had something important to handle.” Kate exhaled sharply. “You better not bring trouble to this house, Christopher.” Chris didn’t respond. He quietly climbed the stairs. Then came the sound of footsteps. Eva barely had time to react before she noticed Chris making his way up the stairs. Her heart pounded. Would he come to her room? Would he apologize? But instead, he walked straight past her

    The golden hue of the setting sun bathed the Cross Corporation building in a soft glow as employees exited the towering glass structure in waves. Eva Carter stepped through the revolving doors, her heart pounding with quiet anticipation. Her gaze instinctively swept across the bustling street, searching for the familiar sleek black car that Chris always parked near the curb. But he wasn’t there. She frowned, gripping the strap of her handbag tightly. Maybe he’s running late. It wouldn’t be the first time Chris had kept her waiting due to work, but he always showed up. Always. Minutes ticked by. First five. Then ten. The occasional rush of a car passing by barely distracted her from the growing tightness in her chest. She took a deep breath, pushing away the creeping unease that threatened to settle. He’ll come. He has to. But when thirty minutes passed with no sign of him, the bitter taste of disappointment curled on her tongue. She felt like a fool standing there, waiting. No ca

    Dexter was also equally confused, he was now sweating in fear but he still tried to regain control. “Mr. Landon, I assure you, this is just a misunderstanding—” Before he could finish, Felix turned and slapped him across the face. The entire room froze. Dexter stumbled, eyes wide in shock. “S-Sir?” Felix’s gaze was ice-cold. “You don’t touch people under my protection.” Dexter’s lips trembled. He had underestimated the weight of Chris’s connections. Chris leaned back in his chair, watching with amusement. “How dare you?....How dare you disrespect Mr.chris?....I’m going to see to it that you no longer have the liberty to conduct any more business in Brooklyn by the time I'm through with you.” Dexter was confused and could only drop to his knees instantly and bow his head in shame as he wondered how Chris was connected to the Landon family. “I'm sorry sir….I'm really sorry sir. I wasn't aware that Mr. Chris was a friend to the Landon family. I would not have acted disrespectfu

    Dexter’s grin faltered for the first time. His eyes darted to his hidden dealer, who subtly signaled that his hand wasn’t as strong as he thought. For the first time, uncertainty flickered in Dexter’s expression. But his pride wouldn’t let him back down. “All in,” he snarled. The dealer flipped the final two cards—King of Spades and a Nine of Spades. Chris had hit a Royal Flush—the highest possible hand. The room erupted into murmurs. Dexter’s face turned pale as he realized he had walked right into a trap. Chris leaned back, crossing his arms. “Looks like I win.” Dexter’s hands clenched into fists. “You… you cheated.” Chris tilted his head. “Cheating? You would know all about that, wouldn’t you?” Ethan chuckled. “Boss, looks like the casino manager isn’t used to losing.” Dexter slammed his fists onto the table. “I won’t let this slide.” Chris’s eyes darkened. “A deal is a deal. You don’t want to go back on your word now, do you?” Dexter ground his teeth. He did expect t

    To be honest, Chris had recognized Dexter the moment they locked eyes with one another. However, he acted otherwise hoping that the situation would become less complicated. “You damn bastard!....I told you we were going to meet again but who would have thought that you would actually dare to come into the casino all by yourself.” “You are getting yourself in this issue just like you did last time we met.” “What do you expect? I can't just stand by and watch your injustice.” “Fine. If you want to do that You want to pay off her debt? Let’s make it fun.” Dexter’s grin widened. “I have seen your fighting skills and I admit that you are good but let's find out if that applies to something else. I suggest a round of poker if you are confident in your skills.” Chris’s gaze didn’t waver. “I don’t play games I can’t win.” “What are the odds of the game?” Let’s make this interesting. Since we both have something at stake, let’s raise the buy-in.” Chris raised an eyebrow. “How much?”
