Jason looked at Alexander with cold eyes, as if trying to assess his intentions. In Jason's eyes, Alexander was still a traitor seeking protection.

“Thank you for your rather anti-mainstream welcome, Mr. Jason Falcon,” Alex said.

Despite his current position as an ally, Alex still felt that he had pride and should not be treated like that.

After all, the Marcos family's level was still above that of the Falcon family.

Jason smiled slightly, but there was a clear tension behind his smile. “Alexander Marcos. I have heard of your intentions. So, what made you want to leave Marcos and join Falcon?”

Alexander approached Jason's desk, with a determined look. “Because I knew the Marcos family was no longer the right place for me to be. My dad didn't appreciate me at all. He preferred his grandson, Jillian Marcos' son to be the heir.”

“Oh, apparently a sick motive.” Jason was getting more and more into the story. He seemed to nod his head slowly. “But if the heir position was given to you, I'

    Edward saw his wife's name appear on his cell phone screen. He then smiled at the thought of his honeymoon tonight with his wife.“Hello, darling,” Edward greeted with a smile.“Hello, Ed.” Roselyn's voice sounded soft on the other end of the line. “I'm currently on my way to Riverside Hill. Where are you now?”Edward was forced to lie about his current position. “I'm still at the hotel construction site in the office. Getting ready to go to the Grand Riverside hotel for that ancient urn I was telling you about.”“Alright, I understand. I apologize for what my dad did.” Roselyn's voice sounded remorseful.“It doesn't matter, dear. I did this for you.”“Thank you, Husband. I love you,” Roselyn said sincerely.“I love you much more, darling,” Edward replied.“Don't be a no-show. This moment is very important for us,” said Roselyn.“I will definitely come, darling. I have promised to give you true happiness. As soon as my business is done, I will go straight to Riverside Hills,” said Edw

    In his muddled thoughts, Edward truly believed that the one standing before him was Roselyn. He smiled as he spread out both hands, inviting her to come closer, unaware of the carefully laid trap Natalia had set.“Are you sure, Ed?” asked Natalia seductively.“Yes. Come here. I missed you so much.”Natalia felt transported by the words of longing that rolled out of the mouth of Edward, the man she had fallen in love with.Natalia moved forward and threw her body in Edward's arms which immediately pounced on her, like a predator ready to devour its prey. Especially with Edward's condition, who was still affected by the drug that made him hallucinate, he was also passionate and needed to be finished immediately.Fondling after fondling has happened between the two of them. Natalia sighed every time her sensitive spots were touched by Edward with passionate movements.“Ouch... Ed, I can't take it anymore,” Natalia sighed.Slowly they undressed each other.

    Room 502, 8th floor, Grand Riverside hotel.The quiet atmosphere in the dimly lit room from the bed lamp on the nightstand was suddenly disturbed by the soft creak of the door opening.Slowly the lights came on brightly. Alana, nervously, stepped inside, followed by Roselyn whose face was pale but whose eyes were full of anger waiting to explode.Behind them, a security guard walked slowly, ready for any eventuality.“No!” Roselyn screeched at the sight of a man's shirt that had been scattered since the entrance to the room. She recognized the shirt, the one her husband had been wearing.“Roselyn calm down. If you can't bear to go into that room, you shouldn't,” Alana said.Roselyn shook her head. “No, Alana. I have to make sure of myself even though I know I'll get hurt,” Roselyn said as she squeezed her shirt at the chest.Meanwhile on the bed, Edward and Natalia were still asleep, their bodies bound together in an embrace that only a night of passion could produce.The thick blanke

    Alana sighed, trying to offer to help even though she knew Roselyn would probably refuse her help because she was devastated.“Alright, if you're going to leave this hotel anyway, but at least let me drive. You can't drive in your muddled state of mind like this,” Alana said in a soft but firm tone.Alana's guess was right, Roselyn shook her head hard, refusing the offer.Roselyn who was in stubborn mode, but could still answer with a trembling voice. “No, Alana. I don't want to involve you any further. This is my own business. I thank you for helping me even at this late hour. I apologize for disturbing you.”Without waiting any longer, Roselyn got into the BMW 760 that her husband had bought for her. Perhaps after this she would return this car to Edward.With a single jerk, the engine started, and in an instant, the car sped out of the parking lot, disappearing into the darkness of the night. Alana could only stand there, genuinely worried about Roselyn's condition.Even though the

    Edward didn't want to waste time and felt regretful. He quickly carried his wife to his car, and the BMW 760 continued to spark. Edward was afraid that the car would suddenly explode.“Hang in there, darling,” Edward said with great anxiety and guilt.Once Roselyn was comfortably seated in her car seat, Edward immediately drove the vehicle down the deserted streets with Roselyn's unconscious body beside him.Roselyn's weak breathing and the blood dripping from her head made every second feel like endless torture to Edward. The car sped away, fighting against time, fighting against the fate that seemed to be trying to take everything from his life.With trembling hands, Edward continued to control the steering wheel. Every breath of Roselyn's that sounded weaker and weaker haunted Edward's mind, making him drive the vehicle even faster, hoping that a miracle could happen in the middle of this dark night.The car Edward was driving arrived right in front of the doors of General Riversid

    Those questions kept swirling in his head. However, when the car he was driving passed the marcosta company building, because the apartment building was still about 300 meters away.Edward actually saw many paparazzi trying to get into the company area. All of this was completely out of his plan.“The scattered photos, especially of me at some point of the Marcos mansion and the last one in the dining room of the Marcos mansion, were taken from CCTV cameras.” Edward sighed as he realized that there was a traitor in his family. He clenched his hands into fists with frustrated thoughts. “I'll find the person soon. But for now I have to make sure that Roselyn understands that I was framed.”For Edward who was still frustrated, Roselyn was his priority.Finally, the car driven by Edward entered the basement of the apartment. He got out while looking down, continuing to speed up his pace. He had to quickly reach the apartment, a safe place, away from the public eye, and a place where he co

    Maria sat beside him, looking at Edward with a gentle yet serious gaze. “We are worried about you, Edward. You can't go on like this. What is really going on?”Edward stared blankly ahead, as if trying to gather his thoughts. “Roselyn... She knows about the trap Natalia set. I tried to explain everything, but it was too late. She can't accept any of it. I just want her to understand that I never wanted this to happen.”Maria let out a long sigh, sensing her sister's sadness. “And what did she say?”Edward closed his eyes, feeling a heavy weight on his chest. “She didn't believe me, Maria. She left with tears in her eyes... and I couldn't do anything to stop her. I feel like all of this happened because of my fault.”Robert, who was standing by the door, said quietly, “Edward, you must be strong. Roselyn may feel disappointed and angry now, but she will understand with time. You can't be like this.”Edward just nodded slowly, but in his heart, he knew that this pain would not go away e

    A maid was seen walking towards the indoor swimming pool inside the Marcos mansion.“Young lady, here are your bathrobes,” said the maid.“Thank you,” Maria said, and exited the indoor pool.She dried her body, then exited the indoor pool area on the first floor. While walking in the corridor while playing with her cell phone, she accidentally collided with a maid until the maid fell down.“Oh, sorry,” she squealed. But suddenly she was surprised because the maid was crying. “What's wrong with you? Did something happen?”The maid just shook her head while occasionally looking at Maria. But soon she fainted.“Oh my God! Why did you faint?” squealed Maria. As her hand pulled off the mask covering the maid's face, she was instantly startled. “Roselyn?”She immediately called for a bodyguard to take Roselyn to the guest room on the first floor. He quickly carried Roselyn to the guest room, while Maria followed with a worried look on her face.After 15 minutes, a doctor arrived and immedia

    Jason pulled the trigger in desperation, hoping the bullet would penetrate Edward's defenses.Edward closed his eyes as the bullet struck his body. Surprisingly, the bullet only pierced through thin air and staggered his body without any significant effect.Edward, still standing tall. Ivanov, who was about to push Edward, was now frozen in place.Edward himself was astonished that the bullet could not penetrate his body, like shooting a rock.Edward said to himself, 'This must be the power of The Arcane Codex of the Seven Heavens. Really great,'Jason was shocked and further cornered. Cold sweat ran down his forehead as he saw Edward's unwavering expression of confidence.Edward approached with calm steps, and as Jason tried to move back, Edward paralyzed him with one swift movement.“This is for my brother who you killed,” Edward said angrily. He pinned Jason against the wall and pressed him down with impressive force.“And this is for my mom's tears, and for Maria, my sister, who a

    Edward, and everyone present turned their heads towards the person standing. She was Roselyn Johnson, the representative of Tarwar Construction Company.Edward's body trembled as he saw the woman he was still married to standing and staring at him. What surprised Edward was her pale face.Slowly but surely, the people present began to stand up, even until all 40 company representatives stood up.The sound of applause slowly began to be heard as the representatives sat down again. Amidst the anxiety and worry, they had high hopes for Edward.“I thank you for your trust. I will make sure that you will never regret the decision you all made,” Edward said. His heart was deeply moved.The meeting came to an end. Everyone who had come had begun to leave the hall with determination and hope for something better.After the meeting was over, Roselyn stood with an indecisive feeling.

    Tension was in the air. On a stage, there was a long table with five chairs. Edward sat in the center. This time there were no sunglasses, masks or dim lighting.Edward stood proud and dignified as Mr. Steel. He wore a black suit that exuded firmness and power.In front of him, Marcosta's top brass, business associates, and media awaited with anticipation. This was the moment where he, as Mr. Steel, would show the world who he was and how he would lead the company that his grandpa had inherited, well.With a deep breath and a keen eye, Edward began his remarks. His voice was firm and full of conviction, every word he spoke containing a power that could not be ignored.“Today, I, whom you know as Mr. Steel, stand here not only as the principal heir to the Marcos family, but as a leader determined to maintain the honor of the family and this company.

    The next morning, a slow drizzle of rain fell, soaking the ground that had been prepared for Salvour Marcos' final resting place. The overcast sky seemed to mourn him, adding to the somber atmosphere that surrounded the morning. A deep sense of loss emanated from every drop of rain, as if nature also felt the departure of such a precious figure. In the midst of this sorrowful atmosphere, Salvour Marcos' body would soon be buried, leaving unforgettable memories for those left behind.Edward was still standing on the balcony of his room when Maria entered. Maria took her brother's hand and rested her head on Edward's shoulder.“Grandpa doesn't need your regrets,” Maria said, trying to revive her brother. “He needs you to stand up and show your strength. The company is in crisis and needs you to take action, Ed. And one more thing, don't keep blaming yourself.”“I know.”Robert entered after he knocked on the door first. Everyone was dressed in black this time.“We leave now for the cem

    A black sedan darted quickly through the deserted streets of the Town of Riverside. The rain was falling gently, like a whisper of sorrow that enveloped the night. The drops that fell from the sky brought a sense of sadness, as if nature was mourning the passing of Salvour Marcos, the revered patriarch of the Marcos family. Every drizzle that touched the ground was as if it were the sky's tears crying for the departed figure, making the dark night even more somber and silent.Inside the car, there were three women lost in their own thoughts. Lily, who was behind the wheel, tried to remain calm, even though her heart was raging. All she had in mind was a way to reconcile Roselyn and Edward. They must not get divorced.In the slow-moving car, Roselyn sat silently with a blank look, occasionally wiping her face with a tissue, wiping away the tears that continued to flow despite her best efforts to hold them back. Her face looked pale, and inside her, there was an inner battle that nev

    Edward looked in the direction of the voice. It was Maria.“I called you many times, but the operator always answered,” Maria squealed. “I remembered that you were going to see your wife, so I followed you here.”“But she didn't believe me, Maria.” Edward looked still depressed. “I had to go after her.”“No, Ed! Listen to me!”“No! I must go after Roselyn. She must see this evidence.” Edward's face was red with the pressure-filled frustration of his problems with Roselyn going crazy.“Stop dwelling on your personal problems, Ed!” Maria yelled at the top of her lungs and began to get carried away. “Snap out of it! Don't keep drowning in your own personal problems and ignore what's far more important.”Edward was in a daze. But my wife-”Soon a loud slapping sound was heard, followed by Edward's body being slammed to the floor with a bang as well.So annoyed with her brother's sudden stupid and annoying behavior, Maria slapped him hard.Edward was silent for a moment.

    “Turn around! Get to Marcosta's company right now!” Robert ordered the driver sternly.“What's wrong, Robert?” asked a surprised Maria.Robert told her the news he had received from Emily Algren's men. The woman had even been admitted to the ICU of Elite Serenity Hospital, which was located not far from Marcosta's company building.By now, the car Robert and Maria were traveling in had arrived at Marcosta's company.“What happened? Why isn't there an escort for Miss Algren?” Robert asked in a high tone of voice due to emotion.All the security team as well as Miss Algren's bodyguards could only look down because they felt they had failed. Only one of them dared to speak because he was the one who found her lying on the floor of his office covered in blood.“So Alexander did it?” asked Robert.“Yes, sir.” The bodyguard nodded with certainty. “He was seen walking fast and did come out of the emergency exit. He said he was in a hurry and we believed him. We thought there was an intruder.
