“What’s happening?” Trisha asked the bank teller, her brows furrowing.

“I’m sorry, Ms. Trisha,” the bank teller said, sliding the necklace in front of her, “but you can’t withdraw the money even with the necklace present.”

Trisha’s eyes widened, her hands slamming the desk in shock. “What? But I was told that it was written in the contract! What nonsense are you saying now?!”

“The necklace is not the only thing you need, Ms. Trisha,” the bank teller explained, her eyes fixated on the screen. “You only need Mr. Oliver’s consent as well.”

“O-Oliver’s what?” Trisha blinked in shock and clenched her fists. “That motherfucker stole my father’s necklace. And now, you’re telling me I need his consent?”

“It wasn’t stolen. Mr. Cole Henverton really gave it to him.”

The bank teller moved her monitor, making Trisha and Carolina see what was on her screen.

“According to this, Mr. Cole placed Mr. Oliver as the necklace’s owner, which technically would be the same for the savings account…” she said

    “Sure. I’ll be in your company in a few minutes.”Oliver ended the call and took the cab toward the Williams Corporation.When he arrived, the employees looked at him with judgment and disgust, but Oliver ignored them.“I have an appointment with Ryan Williams,” Oliver told the receptionist.The receptionist smiled, recognizing Oliver.“Yes, Sir. Mr. Williams already informed us about it,” she said, giving him an elevator card—just like before. “You can use this card every visit, so you won’t need to repeat this process.”Oliver looked at her in confusion but decided not to ask more about it. “Thanks.”“You’re very much welcome,” the receptionist replied and bowed. “Take care, Sir.”He nodded and went inside the elevator, ignoring the other people’s shocked expression while looking at him.All of them were aware of Oliver’s issue of theft, due to how poor he was.But why did someone such as Ryan Williams side with him?***A few minutes later, the elevator stopped at the top floor—wh

    Hearing Oliver’s words, Denver’s brows furrowed in shock and anger.He took Oliver’s phone and saw the call connected to Jay.“Jay?” Denver spoke upon putting the phone on his ear. “Why did you exchange numbers with this shit?”“I didn’t. He was the one who called me,” Jay answered coldly. “But that wasn’t important now. How could you compete with me?”Denver chuckled sarcastically. “Compete? You’ve got to be kidding me. I’m not even in your league in the first place.”“Hah…” Jay scoffed and clenched his fists. “Did you only befriend me because you have gained benefit from me?”“Jay,” Denver called his name in a dangerously low tone. “You’re making me the villain here. Shouldn’t you be glad that I talked to you in the first place?”Jay didn’t answer on the other line.It made Denver smirk as he continued, “Your family may be rich, but you’re a bastard. If not for me, who would talk to or even date you?”“I may be a bastard, but I treated you as a friend, Denver…” Jay told him, the pain

    Carolina showed him the phone screen.She was right. According to the call history, Oliver was the last person Trisha had a conversation with.But that isn’t what took Oliver’s attention. “What made you think I kidnapped Trisha?”“Seriously… You’re asking me that question?” Carolina asked, her voice laced with disbelief. “It was because of that necklace. Are you that petty to take it back from her?”Oliver paused as his brows furrowed, then asked, “Someone stole the necklace?”“Hah. Why are you making it sound like it’s not you?” Carolina scoffed and crossed her arms.“Because it’s not me,” Oliver answered without hesitation.Seeing how Oliver was denying the accusation, Carolina became hysterical. “According to a witness, someone pulled the necklace from my daughter’s neck, and took her in a white van! And now, you’re telling me it’s not you?!”“Yes.” Oliver nodded. “Your statements don't even prove any evidence that it was me who orchestrated the kidnapping.”Carolina pointed at hi

    Trisha’s brows furrowed. “How?”“Simple. Just answer all the questions I have regarding your ex-husband.” He smirked. “Once you answer it right, I might spare you. But if not…”The man left his threat in the air.It made Trisha gulp, her gaze moving between the man and the goons surrounding her.“First question,” he said, his body leaning toward Trisha. “How long has that ex-husband of yours had that necklace?”“I-I don’t know!” Trisha answered honestly, the fear evident in her eyes. “That necklace belonged to my father, and… and…”“And what?” the man asked, his gaze darkening. “Cole Henverton is one of Oliver’s allies?”“No!” Trisha denied it immediately. “M-My father only saved Oliver when she found him in the river before. W-We don’t have any relation to him!”The man smirked upon hearing Trisha’s explanation.“So someone saved him, huh… That’s why he survived,” he said in a dangerously low tone. “Then, did Oliver tell you something after Cole saved him?”“L-Like what?”“A mission…

    Oliver’s brows furrowed upon seeing the caller.It has the same number on his call history—the one who called him repeatedly while his phone was broken.‘Only a few people know my number,’ Oliver thought, knowing he doesn’t give his number just to anyone.Then, he realized something. ‘Could it be…’Without hesitation, Oliver answered the call. “Who is this?”“Finally, Oliver. You answered the call,” a man said on the other line, his voice low and intimidating. “What took you so look, anyway? I almost killed Trisha because I’m pissed.”Oliver froze. “You’re the one who took Trisha

    There were two messages sent to Oliver.First is the location where Trisha was staying.The second is a photo of three men looking at Trisha, who is still asleep.“See the lust in their eyes?” the man asked with a smirk. “They’ve wanted to touch Trisha since earlier, but I’m stopping them.”“You bastard…” Oliver muttered, the anger evident in his tone. “Touch her and you’re dead.”Hearing those words made the man chuckle.“Damn, man. You still have feelings for her. You can’t deny that now,” the man said, feeling confident in his statement.Oliver clenched his fists.He knew it wasn’t true, but Trisha’s her ex-wife, after all.“You won’t understand the feeling of being concerned because you’re an asshole in the first place,” Oliver said in a straightforward manner.The man chuckled again, sensing that Oliver was being heated up in their conversation.“Whatever names you will call me won’t matter,” the man said, his tone dark. He added, “Once you shit with me again, not only I’ll scat

    “I’ll take this,” the man who tied him said as he took the phone from Oliver’s pocket.He turned it off, while he threw the knife he got on Oliver’s waist to the floor.The man, on the other hand, handed Trisha to one of the goons, placing her back on the chair.“I told you that there should be no dirty tricks, but you’re not following me,” the man said, shaking his head. “Or maybe you wanted her to be hurt? She cheated on you, after all.”Oliver grunted and lunged forward, but failed. He was tied, and someone had the knife pointed at Trisha.It was like indirectly telling that one wrong move and Trisha’s life would be in danger.“Never in my life have I thought that you’re still alive, Zero,” the man said, his tone dangerously low.He added, “You disappeared three years ago, and now, I’ll find you in this place? I wonder what a man like you was doing in a shabby town like this.”Although their town also looked good compared to the other villages, it was still inferior to the Capital.

    Oliver’s expression didn’t falter. Instead, his smirk deepened. “Using someone else to get at me? That only proves how pathetic you are.”He chuckled darkly, and Zayne’s grip on him tightened.“High rank in the military?” Oliver leaned in slightly, his voice dripping with disdain. “Doesn’t mean a damn thing if you don’t have the guts to back it up... You coward.”Zayne’s eyes narrowed, his jaw tightening as the veins in his neck pulsed with fury. Without another word, he delivered a brutal punch to Oliver’s jaw, the impact sharp and resounding in the dimly lit room.“You think you’re tough, huh?” Zayne spat, his voice seething with anger.He shook out his knuckles. “That you can just waltz back into this world like nothing happened?”Oliver’s head snapped back with the force of the blow, but his smirk never wavered. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes, cold and defiant, locked onto Zayne’s.“Keep talking,” Oliver taunted, his voice low and steady despite the m

    “Alright,” Oliver answered, looking from left to right, quickly adjusting their vision to the dark.This was part of their training back in the Legion, and lucky for them, the people catching over them were just ordinary guards; they had no skills like Legion V.Because if it is, things might just get more complicated for them. There could be a bloody fight inside Argus Industries.However, since their only goal is to take information about Dominic Hawthorne and Argus Industries, Oliver and Ray do their best to avoid combat.“It’s clear,” Ray muttered as he reached the intersection first, halting just long enough to check both directions. “Let’s go!”Both of them sprinted down the corridor, yet their footsteps were silent against the carpeted floor.“Turn right,” said James on the other line, with his aggressive typing on the keyboard heard in the background. “At the end of the hall, you’ll see a maintenance stairwell.”“Is that exit safe?” Ray asked, his breathing ragged.“To be hone

    Nick chuckled. “This is the first time you called Oliver ‘Commander’, huh?”“It’s because we’re on a mission,” James smirked as he typed again, accessing the security system he still had control over.Then, something caught his attention.“Commander, we have a problem,” James spoke to Oliver, who was making their way now toward the shortcut door that would lead to Dominic’s office.Frowning, Oliver asked, “What is it?”“There’s a biometric scanner on the shortcut door inside Dominic’s office,” James admitted, his hand-typing heard on the call. “I can’t bypass it remotely.”“Their security system intrigues me more,” Ray couldn’t help but say, seeing how the security tightens over time.Then, as they were already in front of the door of Dominic’s office, they saw it closely.The biometric scanner beside it glowed red, waiting for an authorized user.“James, is there any way to forge a scan?” Oliver asked, his tone low.“No.” James shook his head, although no one could see them. “You’d

    A few seconds later, the elevator doors stopped on the second floor, and the real technicians moved towards the main control panels of the broken elevator.Oliver and Ray did their best to hide behind, taking James’ warning that there might be blind spots.“Let’s go do this quickly, everyone, so we can go home early,” the maintenance team leader said as they started taking off the tools.Then, she received a message.“They need two other maintenance on the top floor,” she said, her eyes scanning the team. There are five of them in total. “Who would volunteer?”“We’ll go,” Oliver said, raising his hand alongside Ray. “We’ll do the job quickly so all of us can go home without any problems.”“Alright.” she nodded, her expression stern. “Do your job properly. I’ll receive a message if you don’t.”Oliver and Ray nodded in unison.Little did the maintenance leader know, the message she received came from James, and not from an official employee of Argus Industries.“You may go,” she said,

    Oliver nodded, his mind already working through emergencies. “That’s why we stick to the plan,” he said, placing the tablet on the table. “No unnecessary risks.”Ray raised an eyebrow. “You sure about that? Every mission we’ve done together doesn’t exactly follow the plan.”Oliver chuckled, running a hand through his hair. “Let’s try to keep that from happening this time.”James cleared his throat. “Although I handle the CCTV loop and delete any footage of you as you move, I won’t be able to help you with the extra layer of security at Dominic’s office.”“Extra layer of security?” Ray asked, his brows furrowing.“Yeah.” James nodded. “A secondary system that isn’t connected to the main network.”Samuel’s eyes narrowed, looking James in the eye. “Which means?”James took the tablet from the table, tapping one side of the blueprint. “Which means that someone should physically disable it from inside the security room.”The silence filled their conversation for a moment. Then, Oliver’s

    Samuel added, “Technically, all those high-quality drugs surrendered to the government were taken by Zayne.”“And Zayne gives it to the Argus Industries,” Oliver said, letting out a laugh, realizing how the Legion was used against something evil.The silence filled the room for a moment, then after a few seconds, James spoke.“We might need another way in because hacking isn’t an option for now,” James said, looking at the monitor. “I can’t even look at the Legion’s files. It will make us more suspicious of Charlie.”Oliver ran a hand through his hair, his mind already working through possibilities. James was right—hacking wasn’t an option. If Black Spade Holdings’ security was this tight, then anything related to Dominic’s dealings with the Legion would be buried even deeper.That left them with only one alternative.Infiltration.“Right.” Ray nodded in agreement. “We might have to do this old-school. A physical breach.”And it seemed like everyone had the same thought as him.With

    Melissa hesitated, then answered, “He… came in as a client.”Her words sent a chill through the room.“That doesn’t make sense,” Ray commented with a frown. “Someone like him should have mercenary ties.”Ray added, “He even had the Safe Haven Defense with him, and Zayne working under his feet.”“Right,” James seconded the motion. “And I know Dominic. He’s not the type of person to work with someone… unless it was for the greater good, at least in his perspective.”Although James had an impression about Dominic looking like someone’s puppy and errand boy, he knew that Dominic would only do that to someone he would benefit with.“Then, might have gotten a benefit from Legion,” Oliver spoke, having the same thought as James. “If he went there as a client, what for?”“I don’t have the specifics yet,” Melissa admitted. “But if Dominic was using the Legion’s services instead of partnering with them, that means he wasn’t building an alliance—he was hiring them for something… or maybe Legion

    The entire room was filled with silence, and only the sound of the computer running could be heard in the area.“If Black Spade Holdings has defenses this advanced, there has to be a reason,” Samuel said, his tone low.“We need to figure out what connects them to Argus Industries, Safe Haven Defense, and…” He trailed off, his jaw tightening. “Zerenette’s kidnapping.”All of them had a hard time remembering that mission. It changed everything for the worse.Ray leaned against the desk, rubbing his chin. “We already know that Argus Industries entered the process of formulating new drugs, while Safe Haven Defense supplied illegal arms internationally for the money.”“And Black Spade Holdings… There’s barely any public information about them,” Nick added, scrolling through his phone.“And that thing bothered me the most,” James huffed. “They are just a paper company. Hacking in shouldn’t be this damn difficult.”No one spoke afterward as all of them were pondering about every possible sc

    “I don’t know much about hacking…” Oliver admitted, his voice low. “But based on my understanding, are you saying that your hacking felt like it was on a loop?”“Exactly.” James nodded, then he pointed at the screen. “Look what I’m going to do.”James’ fingers flew across the keyboard, his eyes narrowing as he entered a series of commands. The screen flickered, codes running in a continuous stream.“This,” said James in a low tone.Samuel and Nick also walked toward James, looking at what was about to happen.James attempted to break into Black Spade Holdings’ security system once more.Within seconds, a new firewall emerged, forcing him back to the initial login screen.The same thing happened when he tried another approach, as if an unseen force was resetting his progress every time he got close.Ray crossed his arms, exchanging a glance with Nick.“That’s… weird,” he commented.“Right,” Nick answered, tilting his head, his expression laced with mixed confusion and amusement. “I’ve

    Seraphine felt a sudden chill in her spine.She had always known that Oliver’s life wasn’t simple, that his past held secrets she still didn’t fully understand, although Oliver had told her some of the important details before.About rescuing Zerenette, for example.But hearing this now, knowing he was about to walk into something dangerous…“Then what about Anastasia? What about—”Her words halted, realizing what she was about to say.‘What about me?’Oliver leaned forward, his hands pressing tightly onto Seraphine. It was firm and reassuring.“I won’t leave you unprotected,” Oliver told her. “Bodyguards are watching from a distance, making sure you and Anastasia are safe.”Hearing those words, Seraphine’s lips parted in surprise. “You… already arranged this?”Oliver nodded, smiling. “I lost you and Anastasia three years ago, and I won’t let it happen again,” he replied.“I won’t risk your safety. Not with Trisha still lurking around. Not with the people I know could try to use you
