Victor was momentarily stunned as he observed the two people standing in front of him. Besides their different attire, the two looked exactly identical. He was at a loss for words and couldn't even manage a simple greeting. Even speaking to the man seemed difficult.

"Kid, I heard you've been looking for my brother?" Mike said with a friendly smile, placing his arm around his brother's shoulder. "You see, my brother can be mean sometimes, but don't take it to heart."

"Brothers?" Victor was only able to utter that single word.

"Yeah, we're brothers. Can't you see the resemblance?" Mike sarcastically remarked, jokingly highlighting their similarities. "We even have similar names, except his starts with an N, while mine starts with an M."

Victor, of course, recognized the resemblance and wasn't foolish enough to miss it. He was shocked because what the Watcher had said had come true. Not only did Nike approach him, but someone who looked exactly like Nike had also appeared.

    Early the next day, Victor prepared for his run. After an exhausting run, Mike was waiting for him at the training hall. "Kid, is that all you've got?" Mike asked, disappointed, as Victor was covered in sweat and out of breath. Victor had run more than he expected. He had misunderstood Mike's mention of running, assuming it was just his usual run. He didn't expect Mike to join him and add ankle weights to his own training. "I'm sorry. I haven't had proper sleep these days," Victor tried to explain, but he noticed Mike's growing disappointment. "Kid, are you trying to make excuses?" Mike handed him a bottle of water as they prepared for the next training session. Unbeknownst to them, there were hidden spectators observing their training from a corner. "Shouldn't we just go in instead of staring at them like paparazzi?" KO suggested, finding it annoying to hide and watch. "Be quiet, will you?" Nicholas stressed, trying to concentrate on counting while also wondering about the reaso

    It was known to everyone that Mike had feelings for Josephine as well. However, he had accepted the fact that she was already in a relationship with their friend. He supported them wholeheartedly and even asked to be named the kid's guardian. However, Nicholas was assigned as the guardian before they even met each other. Mike would usually send letters to inquire about them, but after Josephine found out about their dark dealings, she cut ties with everyone. Due to their busy schedules, they had not kept in touch, and they had people checking on them to ensure their safety. They were concerned that their enemies might target both the mother and child. Victor was studying when he noticed Mike standing by the door. His instructor paused and greeted the man, asking if he needed any help. "Is there something we can assist you with, sir?" "Mike, is something wrong?" Victor asked, curious about the soft and gloomy expression on Mike's face as he looked at him. Mike smiled and shook his h

    The next morning, KO came to visit Victor after she had taken out her frustration on Mike and beaten him up. "Kid, what were you thinking?" KO yelled at him early in the morning, not giving him a chance to get out of bed. "Morning, KO," he greeted her, not bothering to get up and wishing he could go back to sleep. 'Why is she here?' "Kid, if you plan on killing yourself, just do it. Why are you stupidly hurting yourself?" "I didn't hurt myself, I just got sick. Everyone gets sick once in a while. That's all," Victor reasoned, but it seemed to fall on deaf ears. "Kid, listen. If you think this will make you happy, I'm telling you it won't." "So, you're saying nothing will make me happy?" Victor became serious and somewhat annoyed with KO. "Kid, why can't you live your life and let go of the past?" KO insisted, not wanting any more bloodshed. She had worked hard to ensure they wouldn't spill any more blood. "I'll try." "Don't just consider, do it," KO said before leaving Victor

    "Young man, welcome…" "Prime Minister, thank you, and happy birthday," Victor greeted the Prime Minister as he handed him his gift. "Your nephew? From what I know, you don't have a brother apart from..." The Prime Minister's eyes widened as he realized who the boy standing in front of him was. The boy's presence and aura were similar to the man he had been thinking of. "This is Victor Augustine, the late chairman's son," Nicholas explained, causing a wave of commotion among the people nearby. He had anticipated some looks of surprise, but he didn't expect such a significant impact. "Victor Augustine." "He is the late Chairman Augustine's son." "He is so handsome, just like his father." The whole room buzzed with excitement after the revelation. Victor was taken aback by the surprise people showed upon learning that his father had a son. It seemed that everyone easily showed favor towards him. 'Just who is my father in this country? Why do some people have fear in their eyes whe

    It was the day Victor had been preparing for all this time—the day he would meet all the board members of his late father's company. He felt a mix of anxiety and anticipation, finding it hard to catch his breath despite his thorough preparations. "What's wrong?" KO asked, noticing Victor's pale appearance as he walked towards the car. "I'm fine, I just didn't get much sleep last night," Victor replied, clearing his throat as he struggled to breathe properly. "Kid, don't worry. Big sister will handle everything. All you have to do is be yourself..." As she spoke, KO realized how poorly Victor was actually feeling. "Try smiling, maybe that will help." "Victor, is something wrong?" Nicholas inquired as he joined them, having finished the necessary preparations before heading to the company. Victor turned to face him, shaking his head, even though he felt sick and on the verge of vomiting. He chose to keep his worries to himself. "Very well, let's go then," Nicholas stated as they al

    "KO, that's enough," Victor said, interrupting her, wanting to continue with what he had to say. "For now, I have nothing to say about whether I'm fit for the role or not. I'll let time speak for itself. Anyways, you've all had your say, and Nicholas and KO have already informed you. Whether you like it or not..." The atmosphere suddenly grew cold as Victor stood up from his chair, looking each of them in the eyes. "I am the Chairman. If you have something to say, speak now, before I change my mind." Nicholas, KO, and Walter, along with those who knew the late Chairman Augustine, were shocked. They felt as if they were witnessing the late chairman himself. Victor's tone and manner were exactly like his father's when he grew annoyed with the board members. "So, if you have nothing more to say, better keep your mouths shut. I may not be my father, but who knows, I could be worse than him," Victor declared as he made his way out of the meeting room, leaving everyone in shock. Even Nich

    "The new Chairman is truly amazing. He was able to solve the warehouse problem in no time." "Did you guys hear the news? We're all getting a bonus this month." Since Victor's arrival, the company had not only survived but thrived under the young man's leadership. With the assistance of Nicholas and KO, Victor's days in the company went smoothly. Those who initially challenged him no longer dared to do so, as he consistently delivered results and proved his ability to handle the company's pressures despite his young age. "James, what should we do?" "The boy is becoming increasingly difficult to handle." "Director Lloyd is right. That kid is ruining all our plans. It won't be long before all of us are out. Most of our subordinates have already been replaced." "Mark is right. James, you promised us that you would become the president. Look at what's happening now. I might lose my position too. I've sacrificed so much for you, and look where I am now. I'm hanging by a thread, and any

    Time passed, and Victor proved to be just as capable as his father. The board members decided that the best course of action was to stay away from the boy and allow him to make all the decisions. It was the only way to secure their positions. They were terrified of the private information that KO possessed about each of their lives, but Victor never used that information against them. Instead, he simply demonstrated his ability to handle the pressure they placed on him. In the grand ballroom, Nicholas received compliments and praise for Victor's accomplishments over the past few years. Victor had transformed into a man no one expected him to be. He possessed his father's talent and work ethic, yet he was also charming and gentle like his mother. "Enough with the flattery. I haven't won yet," Nicholas responded humbly. "Come on, Nicholas. We believe in you." "That's right, with such a powerful company backing you, who would dare challenge you?" "To our future Governor!" "You're rig

    Victor's eyes blinked open as he roused from his restless slumber. Weariness clung to his body, a heavy blanket of fatigue that seemed to have become a constant companion. He sighed deeply, wondering how he would ever find his way through the labyrinthine challenges that surrounded him. The weight of his decisions bore down on him, leaving him feeling as if he were drowning in a sea of complications. Rolling out of bed, Victor stretched his stiff limbs before heading downstairs, his stomach rumbling with hunger. As he descended, the aroma of food reached him, drawing his attention to the kitchen where Antonia was busy preparing a meal. "What poison is this?" The words slipped from his lips before he could temper them, a mixture of weariness and sarcasm lacing his tone. He felt a pang of guilt at his words, recognizing that they weren't exactly the warmest greeting. Antonia looked up from her task, a hint of irritation flashing in her eyes at his less-than-friendly comment. She had h

    Antonia's fingers brushed against the man's scars with a mixture of curiosity and tenderness. Each scar told a story of its own, a narrative of battles waged and wounds endured. As her touch traversed the roadmap of his struggles, she couldn't help but feel a sense of connection, an unexpected bridge between their worlds. The scars, once concealed beneath layers of cloth, were now laid bare for her to witness. They spoke of a life far more intricate than the polished exterior he presented to the world. The reality of his existence was etched into his skin, a testament to his resilience and determination. Her initial intention to change his clothes had transformed into an intimate exploration of his history. The barriers that typically divided them – the mystique, the distance – had crumbled in the wake of her newfound understanding. He was more than just a man of allure; he was a man of depth, shaped by circumstances she could only begin to fathom. A mixture

    When Lucas arrived at the scene, a somber atmosphere enveloped the area. The lifeless bodies of the guards lay sprawled on the ground, a grim testament to the fierce confrontation that had unfolded. It had been a while since Lucas had been exposed to such violence; Fred, who was usually by Victor's side in such situations, was notably absent."Aug, are you…" Lucas trailed off, his voice hesitant as he struggled to find the right words. The sight before him was unsettling, a stark departure from their usual endeavors.Victor's gaze remained fixed on the sky, his expression a mix of weariness and determination. Splatters of blood marked his face and clothes, a vivid reminder of the intense struggle that had transpired."James got away," Victor's voice was heavy with resignation as he let the firearm he had wielded fall to the ground. The weight of the situation hung in the air, a palpable sense of frustration underscoring his words.Lucas surveyed th

    As the sun's warm rays illuminated the scene, Victor's frustration was palpable. The lack of response from Watcher had stirred his unease, but he realized that this battle was ultimately his to fight. He couldn't let his irritation hinder the task at hand, which was to locate Megan and ensure her safety. While he knew she was alive, confirming her well-being was his top priority.Lucas approached Victor, breaking the tense silence that had settled over the group. "Aug, we should head back now. There's not much more we can do here at the moment," he suggested, his voice tinged with concern.Victor tore his gaze away from the burnt remnants of the mansion and turned to Lucas. The gravity of the situation hung heavily on his shoulders, but he nodded in agreement. "You're right. Let's regroup and gather our thoughts."As they made their way back to the vehicles, the mansion's surroundings remained abuzz with activity. People were milling around, discussing the aftermath of the fire and th

    "What do you mean Megan escaped?" Antonia's voice trembled with shock as the news hit her over the phone. Since the enigmatic man had visited her under the shroud of night, he had kept sporadic contact, communicating with her from time to time. "Your devoted boyfriend is on a frantic search for her. However, I've received word that James isn't putting any effort into finding Megan and has vanished," the voice on the other end relayed coolly. "Vanished? Could it be..." Antonia's thoughts raced, connecting the dots that led to a disturbing conclusion. "Indeed, his brother has been released at last." "Impossible! Where did he procure the funds?" Antonia's disbelief was palpable. "Think deeply, Antonia. Who possesses such resources?" The caller's words struck Antonia like a revelation. "Impossible," she muttered, struggling to absorb the implications. To fathom that Victor had fallen into James' clutches was a bitter pill to swallow. "He settled the entire debt – a colossal sum." "

    Simultaneously, Victor and his team arrived at the location where James was supposedly keeping Megan captive. Their anticipation was met with a shocking sight—the entire mansion was engulfed in flames, the servants running frantically to combat the blaze. "What just happened?" Edward's voice was a mixture of astonishment and concern, mirroring the disbelief in their eyes. Lucas, quick on his feet, approached one of the servants and grabbed him with a mixture of worry and urgency. His expression was stern as he demanded answers. "Where is James?" The servant's panicked gaze shifted between the group before him. "We don't know." Frustration etched into his features, Lucas persisted, his grip tightening on the servant's collar. "What happened here?" The servant pointed a shaky finger towards the fire. "That girl, it's all her fault." Victor's patience waned, and he intervened, yanking the servant away from Lucas and gripping his collar firmly. "Explain what you mean by 'that girl.'"

    Megan's resolve was unshakable. She held James's gaze with unwavering determination, determined to play her part in this twisted game with a strategy of her own. "You're right, James," she said, her voice steady and calm, "we both have something that matters to the other. But remember, you underestimate the power of a person's will to protect their loved ones." James's smile faltered for a brief moment before he regained his composure. "Ah, Megan, you're quite the enigma. But let's not forget that I still hold the upper hand here." Megan's mind raced, searching for any advantage she could gain in this perilous situation. "You may have the upper hand for now, but you can't keep your guard up forever," she replied, a spark of defiance in her eyes. James chuckled softly, seemingly entertained by her audacity. "Oh, I know that very well. But it's all part of the game, isn't it? A game of strategy, manipulation, and survival." Megan's thoughts turned to Victor and his unwavering determ

    James paced around the mansion, his face a picture of exultation. At long last, he had received what he had relentlessly pursued. With a jubilant stride, he made his way to the receiving room where the enigmatic masked man had taken residence. "My dear friend, the money should have been wired to your account by now," James declared, a triumphant grin lighting up his features. The mysterious man, his identity shrouded behind the mask, met James's gaze with an inscrutable expression. He nodded imperceptibly to one of his subordinates, who promptly made a call, the hushed conversation hinting at a transaction of profound consequence. As anticipation rippled through James, he couldn't help but wonder about the outcome. He had hoped for a victorious resolution, but uncertainty lingered in the air. The masked man's actions and intentions remained a puzzle that James yearned to solve. "Your brother should be here within 24 hours," the masked man's voice, devoid of emotion, finally broke t

    In the dimly lit warehouse, Victor and James stood facing each other, the air thick with tension. The sound of rain echoed outside, adding to the atmosphere of the intense showdown. Their eyes locked in a battle of wills and determination. Victor's gaze was unwavering, his resolve strengthened by the thought of saving Megan from this ordeal. James, on the other hand, wore a malicious grin, trying to unnerve his adversary. "So, Aug, you finally made it," James sneered, his voice dripping with contempt. "I must say, I expected more from you." Victor's jaw tightened, but he refused to let James's words get to him. He knew the man was trying to play mind games, to break his composure. But he wouldn't fall for it. "I'm here to put an end to this," Victor replied, his voice steady and firm. "Release Megan, and I promise I won't hurt you." James laughed mockingly, taking a step closer to the man. "Oh, I'm not worried about you hurting me, Chairman. I'm more concerned about what I'll do
