Louis awoke with his head pounding, enveloped in darkness. Pain throbbed in his temples as he tried to recall what had happened. He attempted to move his body but felt an overwhelming exhaustion. Slowly, he opened his eyes and realized he was in a small, dark, and damp room, with faint noises coming from outside.

He tried to sit up, but the dizziness forced him to lie back down. He remembered the moments before he lost consciousness—Clara, the hands that had taken him, and the sense that something bigger was unfolding. Without thinking, he scanned the room, trying to figure out where he was and how to escape.

Struggling, Louis felt along the walls, searching for a window or door. He could hear noises outside, a sound that was all too familiar—the argument between Dominic and Gwen. Anxiety gripped him. What was happening? Was Clara okay? These thoughts swirled in his mind, fueling his urge to act.

    "Sending Victor or anyone else is my business," Mr. Charles replied to Dominic's question."Does Grandpa know what’s going on?" the handsome man continued."Of course, because I’ve lived longer than you. So I know what you’re doing there, and what I need to do about your childish actions. This all needs to stop immediately," Mr. Charles said firmly. "Ethan, I don’t want you involved in this anymore. Dominic and Gwen need to handle this themselves."Ethan nodded slowly, accepting the order. "I understand, Grandpa. I'm sorry for what I did earlier."The atmosphere in the room eased slightly, but the tension was still palpable. Dominic, Gwen, and Ethan all reflected on what had just happened, while Mr. Charles stood up from his chair, signaling that the meeting was over.As he left the room, Mr. Charles sent a message to Victor to meet him in his office.

    Victor fell silent, unsure of how to respond. He didn’t want to speak ahead of his master. Mr. Charles again asked his trusted aide a question.“Why are you so quiet? I need someone to talk to.”“Forgive me, Sir. I thought I wasn't worthy of giving you ideas or advice.”“Nonsense! You’ve helped me this far. Are you afraid I’ll tell you to get rid of someone again?” Mr. Charles teased.Victor shook his head quickly. “No, Sir. It’s not that. I’m not afraid of anything. Every task and order you give, I’ll carry out to the best of my abilities.”“Good. You’re reliable. Now, if you were in my position and faced a situation like this, what would you do about that woman?”Victor thought carefully; he needed the right answer. If he were Mr. Charles, facing this situa

    Victor stood in front of Mr. Charles, his face revealing a hidden tension beneath a calm exterior. The room was filled with a foreboding atmosphere, the dim lighting casting shadows that darkened both of their expressions.Mr. Charles broke the silence, his voice steady but commanding. "After eliminating Clara, you need to inform Rachel about it," he said, locking eyes with Victor. "Let her know who holds the power here. I want to see how she reacts to the fact that we took out her two men so easily."Victor nodded, though doubt gnawed at him. "But, Mr. Charles, what if she becomes suspicious of us?""Don’t make it obvious," Mr. Charles interrupted, his cold voice carving fear into Victor’s heart. "We don’t need to provide clear evidence. Just deliver the news, and let her fear do the rest. Rachel must feel a real threat, and we’ll watch how she reacts."Victor could feel the

    Dominic sat on a park bench, his gaze empty as he reflected on everything that had happened between him and Gwen. Thoughts of the tense moments they shared when Gwen spent time with Ethan haunted him. Jealousy crept into his soul, but at the same time, he was confused about how to mend their broken relationship.Mr. Charles approached with steady steps, a mysterious smile on his face. He knew what was on Dominic's mind, and he planned to use it. "Dominic," he said casually, "you seem to be wrestling with your thoughts."Dominic looked at Mr. Charles, sensing there was something he wanted to say. "I... I don’t know where to start," he said hesitantly. "Every time I try to talk to Gwen, she just keeps avoiding me."Mr. Charles nodded, recognizing the depth of confusion his grandson was experiencing. "I understand. Change often brings tension in relationships. But you have to remember, Gwen is a good woman. She needs

    Gwen looked at Mr. Charles with uncertainty in her eyes, as if a question lingered in her mind. "Grandfather, answer my question."Mr. Charles was silent for a moment, his enigmatic smile never leaving his face. "Ah, Clara," he responded, his tone steady. "I tried speaking with her, but she refused to meet me."Hearing those words, Gwen's heart grew heavier. Yet, there was something in Mr. Charles' tone that made her uneasy. She sensed there was more to their conversation than he was letting on."Speaking?" she asked, trying to dig into the meaning behind Mr. Charles' statement. "Why did she refuse? And why haven't we heard anything from her? What really happened?""I don’t know. Why are you asking me?""I'm sorry, Grandfather. I didn't mean it like that. I just wanted to know," Gwen replied, feeling uncomfortable.Mr. Charles tried to shift Gwen’

    The midday sun shone fiercely over the city, casting sharp shadows on the streets. However, inside the branch office, the atmosphere felt increasingly suffocating. Victor stared at his phone screen, his fingers tapping quickly as a notification came in. A message from his subordinate who had been monitoring Rachel at the hospital.“Boss, Rachel insisted on leaving early. She’s currently on her way home. What’s the next step?”Victor furrowed his brow, anxiety creeping into his mind. He hadn’t expected Rachel to act so quickly. In her weakened state after treatment, this decision could be dangerous. He quickly typed a reply.“Follow her home. Don’t take your eyes off her for a second.”After sending the voice message, Victor closed his phone and stood up, urgency propelling him toward Mr. Charles's office. This news needed to be conveyed immediately, and

    "There's nothing wrong, Gwen," said Dominic, trying to look calm in front of his wife."Is there a problem at the office?" Gwen asked, worried about her husband. "If something is going on there, you can go. I don't mind being here alone.""No, nothing's wrong at the office. I'm happy to be here with you," he replied."Alright then, I'll keep arranging the flowers," Gwen said. Dominic nodded, staying there until backup arrived.Soon, the doorbell rang, signaling someone’s arrival. Gwen, who was busy with the flowers, turned around and saw a familiar face. "Theo?" she asked, both curious and puzzled. "What are you doing here?"Theo, one of Victor's men, smiled warmly. "Gwen, it's good to see you. I'm here to assist Mr. Dominic. There are a few things we need to discuss.""Dominic? What's going on with my husband?" Gwen asked, turning to him. "What's happe

    Victor continued. “He reported that on his way home, his car was followed by an unknown vehicle. They tried to pursue it, but it disappeared before they could confirm who was inside.”Mr. Charles’s face grew serious. "Another car without license plates?" he asked, though he’d already suspected the answer."Yes, it seems like the same one we saw near the shop earlier," Victor replied. "I'll deploy additional teams to secure the house, Sir."Gwen, seated next to Mr. Charles, began to feel a growing anxiety. “Does this have something to do with Rachel, Grandpa?” she asked worriedly.Mr. Charles took a deep breath, trying to reassure his granddaughter. “We can’t be sure yet, Gwen. But rest assured, we won’t let anything or anyone disturb your family. Don’t worry.”When they arrived home, Victor and Theo quickly exited

    The echoing gunshot came from Victor. In an instant, he fired several rapid shots that struck Rachel's men lurking behind the door, causing their bodies to collapse immediately.Wayne breathed a sigh of relief while peeking into the now-silent hallway. “How did you know they were there?”Victor put on a sharp expression and smirked briefly, “I’m always ready for unexpected attacks. Don’t lose focus; we still have other tasks.”Pierre, who had been hiding behind the wall, took a deep breath. “If it weren't for you, Victor, we might have been easy targets.” He wiped the sweat from his forehead, looking a bit shaky. “Are we really safe now?”“Don’t feel too relieved, Pierre,” Wayne said, patting his partner’s shoulder. “It’s not over until we’re really out of here.”Victor's m

    Victor stepped out of the building, approaching the white car waiting in the parking lot. Inside, two of his trained subordinates, Pierre and Wayne, were ready, their faces showing determination and seriousness. The car gleamed under the streetlights, as if ready to plunge into the darkness of the night.The car sped quickly down the empty nighttime streets, the tense atmosphere haunting every second of the journey. Victor stared ahead, his mind racing. He wasn’t just carrying a well-crafted plan, but also holding the hope of realizing a long-awaited ambition. I must not fail,” he whispered to himself. Every detail of this plan had to be executed perfectly.Upon arriving at the location believed to be Rachel's new house, Victor felt adrenaline coursing through his veins. Before stepping out of the car, he instructed his men to stay alert. As soon as they got out, they noticed that the surroundings of the house appeared calm. Howe

    Theo looked surprised but quickly realized that Victor knew more than he had suspected. “That’s right, Miss Gwen just wanted to make sure everything was alright,” he replied, trying to keep his tone calm.Victor continued, staring intensely into Theo’s eyes. “You need to know that Mr. Charles and I are planning something very secretive to deal with the challenge from Rachel. We can't let this situation get out of control.”Hearing that, Theo's attention was immediately focused. “What do you mean, what plan?”“What do you mean, what plan?” Theo asked again, his curiosity piqued despite knowing the risks involved.Victor nodded, realizing that Theo was the right person to enlist for help, but he also needed to be reminded of the importance of secrecy. “We’re preparing a strategy to deal with her, but this isn’t somethin

    Victor stared at Dominic for a moment before averting his gaze, as if trying to avoid Dominic’s intense stare. “I’m sorry, Mr. Dominic,” he replied quietly but firmly. “I’m just doing what Mr. Charles asked. What they talked about… that’s not my place to explain.”Dominic frowned, dissatisfied with the answer. “So you’re just following Grandpa’s orders? Rachel comes to this house late at night, and you don’t feel the slightest need to tell me?”Victor took a breath before responding calmly. “This is all with Mr. Charles’s knowledge, Dominic. I’m just carrying out my duties as instructed by him, and he has the authority to decide what should be shared.”Dominic sighed, feeling frustrated by the overly formal response. “Victor, you’ve been working here for a long time. Is there really nothing you can tel

    Theo shook his head, his face filled with concern. "I don't know Rachel's exact intentions. But from the moves she's making, it seems she's getting ready to open the option for 'open warfare.' This is not a usual occurrence; she might be sending a warning or, worse, a direct threat."Dominic looked at Gwen with eyes that reflected his worry. His concern for their Grandpa's safety made him react immediately. He grabbed his phone and, without hesitation, called Christ. There was a long ring before Christ's firm voice answered."Dominic?" Christ asked, his tone attentive.Dominic spoke quickly, his voice filled with urgency. "Christ, we just got word that Rachel is at Grandpa's house. I don't know what her plan is, but I need your help. Send your men there now to secure Grandpa's house. Don't let her cause any trouble."Christ didn't ask many questions, understanding the urgency in Dominic's voice. "Got

    Dominic explained about Theo's plan to follow the car that was suspected to belong to Rachel, which had been speeding toward the hospital, and how they arrived without news from the second team. Ethan's expression suddenly turned serious. "You guys need to be careful when you head back.""We'll be fine," Theo interjected, trying to reassure them. "I'll personally ensure Dominic and Gwen's safety.""Then you should leave before it gets too late."Gwen agreed with her brother-in-law's statement, and they said their goodbyes to Ethan. Dominic entrusted his brother to Daniel. "Please take care of my mischievous brother, the situation is getting out of control, and Rachel is getting bolder with us.""Yes, sir. I will take care of Mr. Ethan as best as I can."Dominic and Gwen returned home under tight escort from Theo, even sharing the same car. The atmosphere inside the vehicle was qu

  • Impromptu Married   Rachel's trap?

    Mr. Charles's thoughts were now filled with plans to retaliate against Rachel's actions without showing his face. "You know what to do, Victor. Prepare everything as quickly as possible. I want to ensure every step we take pushes her further into a corner."As the car continued down the road, Mr. Charles felt a growing determination to defend his family. For him, this wasn’t just about revenge—this was about protecting his family and preserving their honor. And with Victor by his side, he knew that his plans would unfold smoothly, as they always had.∞That night, in the living room of Mr. Charles's house, the warm atmosphere contrasted sharply with the tension rising between Dominic and his grandfather. Dominic stood tall before Mr. Charles, determination visible in his serious gaze. Mr. Charles, sitting in his chair, looked at his grandson with a stern yet gentle expression."Are

    Daniel stepped into the emergency room, hearing the steady beep of medical monitors beyond the curtains and the occasional footsteps of nurses. His heart raced with worry for Ethan's condition.As the curtain was drawn back, his gaze locked onto Ethan lying on the bed. But what shocked Daniel was the smile on Ethan’s face. He seemed perfectly fine, showing no signs of having fainted or suffering from poisoning. In an instant, Daniel’s worry was replaced by deep confusion.“Sir…” Daniel spoke softly, still unable to believe what he was seeing. “Are… you alright?”Ethan looked at him casually and shrugged. “Well, yes, I’m fine. Why? Do I look like someone on their deathbed?” he replied.Daniel was stunned. “You look… incredibly healthy. I saw you faint suddenly after drinking Rachel’s drink.”

    "Of course, we’ve arrived here. I can’t back down, especially since you’re here to protect me. Right?" Ethan replied. "Now let’s set up a plan: I’ll meet her, and you’ll stay nearby. Make sure no one suspects you. Do you understand?""I'm sorry, sir, but this isn't right. Our agreement was for you to follow my rules," Daniel rejected, unwilling to accept Ethan changing their arrangement."That agreement no longer applies, Daniel. What needs to be agreed upon is my plan," Ethan retorted, turning to open the car door, but Daniel quickly locked it from the driver’s side. This surprised and annoyed Ethan. "Daniel, what are you doing? Open the door.""I'm sorry, sir, but changing the agreement suddenly is not allowed," he said while starting the car."Don't be reckless, Daniel. Turn off the engine.
