Chapter: Chapter 200Loyalty and Trust Until the End of Life Together The years passed swiftly, flowing peacefully like the ocean currents at Sanur Beach. David and Olivia lived their lives in Bali, making the beachfront villa the heart of the new Sterling family. They had fully left the dark past behind. David kept his promise. He led the Sterling Corporation with a new vision, transforming it into an ethical global power, focused on sustainable technology and philanthropy. He remained a strategist, but he used his intellect to build, not to wage war. David's loyalty to Olivia was the foundation of their peace. After all the trials, betrayals, and revenge, David never again doubted Olivia, even in the slightest detail. Their trust was a steel layer impenetrable by doubt, greed, or external intrigue. The Chapter of Growth Daniel grew into an intelligent and noble-hearted young man, inheriting Olivia’s calm demeanour and David’s analytical mind. He knew the story of the 'Grandfather Hero' who sav

Chapter: Chapter 199My Destiny of Love is You (Their Happiness) The Bali sky felt bluer, and the sun shone warmer. Three months after Operation 'Old Blood' cleared all remnants of betrayal in the Sterling Corporation, true peace finally settled upon David Sterling and his family. Richard Sterling and Sofia had received justice, and David no longer carried the burden of revenge. Anya, the half-sister, decided not to settle in Bali. After cleansing the evil that took her mother's life, she chose to pursue her career as an ethical cyber engineer, establishing her own security firm in Europe. Before leaving, she hugged David and Olivia on the runway. “I have found the peace I needed, David. Thank you for your honesty and courage,” Anya said. “The Sterling network will always be open to you, Anya,” David replied, hugging her tightly. “Take care of yourself.” Anya departed, carrying with her Richard Sterling's double legacy: intelligence and determination.

Chapter: Chapter 198Revenge Achieved – The Enemy Used to Be Father’s Men Victor Kael's revelation transformed David and Anya's strategy from merely clearing up Hydra remnants into a precise targeting operation. They now had a full list of individuals, who, ironically, were mostly Richard Sterling’s trusted colleagues and subordinates during his prime, sold out to Robert due to greed. David’s remaining enemies were not shadows in the underworld, but familiar faces in the boardroom. David, Anya, and Olivia, who had returned to being the strategic brain from Bali, coordinated with Arthur Vance. They had to move fast before news of Kael's capture leaked and prompted the traitors to flee. Operation 'Old Blood' Anya created sophisticated software called 'Old Blood'. This program was designed to infiltrate the personal financial and communication systems of the traitors Kael identified. “The first target is Harrison Reed,” Anya said, pointing at the screen in

Chapter: Chapter 197Cooperation to Kill the EnemyOnce the plan was drawn up, there was no time to wait. David knew Robert might be dead, but the system he created was parasitic. Every wasted second meant the remnants of Hydra were sinking deeper into the shadows, taking with them the secrets of Sofia's murder and their involvement in the Richard Sterling conspiracy.Phases I and II were executed at lightning speed. With Anya's hacking expertise in the pre-Hydra systems that Robert was unaware of, and Arthur Vance’s global intelligence network, they successfully identified five key targets—all Hydra veterans involved in the 'accidents' of Sofia and Richard.Their main target was Victor Kael, the former head of security for Sterling Corporation, now the commander of Hydra's shadow paramilitary group in Southeast Asia. Richard Sterling, in his journal, named Kael as the person who directly orchestrated the accident that killed Sofia, and the accident that put Richard into a coma. Kael was the

Chapter: Chapter 196The Revenge Plan for Father’s Death Anya’s presence did not just bring a jarring family surprise; it also brought a new blueprint for a war David thought was finished. On the Sanur villa terrace, under the shadow of the coconut trees, David and Olivia now sat across from Anya, listening intently. “I know this is hard to believe, David,” Anya said, her voice now softer, “but I am not apologising for my existence. I am simply demanding justice for my Father and my mother.” Olivia, after overcoming her shock, was the first to speak. She had lived in a world of secrets for a long time; she knew that the truth was rarely simple. “Anya, if you truly are Richard Sterling’s daughter, we need proof. But more importantly, we need to know: how did you know about Robert and Hydra?” Anya sighed, then recounted her story with chilling detail. Anya’s Truth “My mother’s name was Sofia. She was one of the most brilliant software engineers w

Chapter: Chapter 195The Father’s Illegitimate Daughter Three months had passed. David had left his deep sadness behind, although the memory of Richard Sterling remained a touching reminder. Thanks to Olivia's patience and boundless love, David had found his way back to the light. Bali, the island that was once a fragile fortress in the midst of a storm, now felt truly peaceful. David had purged all traces of Robert and Hydra, refocusing on the Sterling Corporation, which was now operating with strict ethical standards. They decided to return to the Sanur beachfront villa, which had been rebuilt and reinforced. They celebrated their recovery and peace. Daniel was back at school, and David spent his mornings sailing with his son. The family was finally living a normal life, detached from the shadow of the dark world that once loomed over them. One quiet afternoon, as the sun began to set over the Indian Ocean, David, Olivia, and Daniel were enjoying tea on the vill

Chapter: Chapter 200A True Happily Ever AfterThe silence that settled upon the old textile factory, after Mr Cairo, NovaCorp’s chief operative, fell to Bima’s precise shot, was profound. Morgan, Alice, and Marcel escaped, seamlessly extracted by Bima, leaving Cairo's body and his fallen men as undeniable proof of NovaCorp’s fracturing power.Yet, the real victory was not achieved in that desolate factory. It lay within the hard drive Marcel had secured in their hideout. Upon returning to their secret base, they immediately began analysing the vast trove of data Charles had painstakingly collected.The archive contained comprehensive details regarding NovaCorp’s deep involvement in global market destabilisation schemes, rampant money laundering, and illegal security contracts with some of the world’s most authoritarian governments. With this irrefutable raw data in hand, Morgan no longer needed to operate in the shadows. He passed copies of the evidence to trusted political contacts and several reputable

Chapter: Chapter 199lThe Architect's Revelation and the Hunt's EndMorgan knew they couldn't fight NovaCorp, a global organisation operating at a geopolitical level, merely with firepower. They had to use intelligence and cunning. Marcel, driven by fury that Alice was abducted after he himself had just found peace, became Morgan’s most valuable asset.“We have to know what key they want, Marcel,” Morgan said in their secret workroom. “Charles called you a pawn, but you must know where he hid his most sensitive information.”Marcel nodded, his eyes blazing with concentration. “Charles never trusted me, but he loved to boast. He often mentioned a secret place he called the 'Underground Archive'. Not money assets, Morgan, but data. All of NovaCorp's secrets he’d collected over two decades, just in case NovaCorp ever betrayed him.”Morgan and Marcel immediately set out. They tracked cryptic coordinates Charles had left in a rare book in his private library, which led to an old, hidden bunker beneath the rui

Chapter: Chapter 198The Serpent's NestMorgan did not sleep. The image of the knife against Alice's delicate skin was burnt onto his retina, eclipsing everything else. He was back in the blackest depths of his existence, but this time, he had a clear focus: revenge would be secondary to retrieval.“Bima, I need everything you have on NovaCorp’s primary international data facilities. Marcel, tell me what you know about their operational security protocols.” Morgan’s voice was dangerously low, devoid of emotion, yet radiating a terrifying finality. He was no longer the CEO; he was the ghost he had become after Alvin’s death, but refined, focused, and utterly ruthless.Bima, recovering from his shock, was all professionalism. “NovaCorp operates under layers of shell companies, Sir. Their physical locations are almost impossible to track, shielded by state-level security. But I found a pattern: major asset transfers always pass through a central hub, typically a highly secure satellite office in a neutral zo

Chapter: Chapter 197The Architect of the New Dawn The morning sun, filtered through the thick leaves of the old oak tree, no longer felt like a spy watching Alice; it felt like a silent witness to her survival. The large, imposing Morgan mansion, once a fortress against outside enemies, was slowly being transformed, brick by painstaking brick, into a true home. And Alice, with the aid of her cane, was the sole architect of this peaceful revolution. It had been several months since the night of the explosion at the north pier and the miracle of Marcel’s resurrection. The immediate chaos had subsided, but the silence that followed was heavy, filled not with external threats, but with the demanding task of internal healing. Morgan, who had found peace through action and the reunion with his brother, was now consumed by supporting Marcel's new venture. Alice’s path to recovery, however, was purely personal. Her scars were not just visible, etched onto her leg that now required the polished mahogany cane f

Chapter: Chapter 196 Falling in Love with a Beautiful Nurse Despite the miracle of Marcel's resurrection having ended the grief of Morgan and Alice, Marcel’s physical recovery from the gunshot wound to his abdomen still took time. The wound had healed miraculously thanks to quick, confidential medical attention, but muscle and nerve damage required him to rely on a wheelchair for several weeks, followed by a cane, to ensure full recovery. Initially, Marcel hated his wheelchair. The man who had lived his life in the shadows, always moving quickly and quietly, was now tethered to a mobility aid. Morgan tried to cheer him up by giving him a laptop and documents for his Phoenix Logistics company, ensuring Marcel stayed busy. “Just think of it as a compulsory holiday, Brother,” Morgan joked one morning as he drove Marcel to his weekly check-up. “A holiday that makes me look like a paralysed corpse,” Marcel grumbled. “I should be at the office, not a hospital.

Revenge of the Star: Billionaire's Secret Lover
Cassandra “Cassie” was the brightest movie star, adored by millions—yet behind the dazzling lights of fame, she was nothing more than the secret lover of Julian, the cold billionaire who had helped her become the most famous actress in the industry. Behind the scenes, she was merely Julian’s slave of desire. When a scandal ruined her career, Julian—the man she loved—betrayed her without mercy. Julian chose to return to his first love and married the woman.

The vehicle exploded into flames, and the world soon declared the beloved actress dead.
Seven years later, the world still believed Cassie was gone. But she returned—with a new face and a little daughter by her side. She came back with one purpose: revenge. Would she succeed in making Julian feel the same pain he once caused her?Or would fate play its twisted game and make her fall for him once again?And how would Julian react when he discovered that Cassie was still alive—and that she had a little girl, his own flesh and blood?

Chapter: Chapter 77I Shall Kill Your Daughter"You absolute bastard! Where is my daughter? Give her back!" Cassandra screamed again."Your daughter is safe... but there is something you both must do. If you want your daughter to survive," the man replied.Naturally, that man was Mr Rose, standing in the doorway, pointing a pistol at Julian, who was still struggling to get up in the corner of the room. Marcus lay sprawled on the floor near the door, seemingly incapacitated by Mr Rose's henchmen.Jennifer froze. She was still pinning Elena down, her hands locked around the woman's neck."Release my daughter, and perhaps I shall kill Julian quickly, without pain," Mr Rose said calmly, as though discussing the weather.Jennifer looked at Julian. Julian looked back at her with a gaze that said: Do not give up."You know, Mr Rose. I am Jennifer now, no longer Cassandra," Jennifer spoke with a remarkably calm voice, even though her heart was thumping. "You made a grave mistake coming here yourself. You think I

Chapter: Chapter 76Welcome to My Game"My daughter, the game is about to begin. I shall ensure those two suffer," said Mr Rose, who had only just arrived."Of course, Father. Avenge my grudge and your own." Elena smiled wickedly.A few moments after that conversation, they arrived at the hospital. The atmosphere of the hospital room, which should have been a place of recovery, had turned ominous due to the return of Mr Rose. The sharp scent of antiseptic seemed to mingle with the aroma of the threat brought by their resurrected enemy. Jennifer stared at her phone screen with trembling hands. There, Aurora—her innocent little daughter—was chasing butterflies in the back garden of their safe house. However, in the corner of the photo, the figure of a tall man in a black suit, whom Jennifer recognised all too well, stood frozen.It was Mr Rose. The man who should have been rotting in his grave after that death sentence was carried out."That bastard, he’s back and threatening me. He is truly playing with m

Jennifer said again.At that moment, the man removed his mask; Jennifer was struck with utter shock the moment she saw him."How are you, Cassandra Vance? Have you forgotten that it was you who framed me?" The man immediately slapped Jennifer’s cheek with immense force."Mr Rose... how can you still be alive? And why did Elena kidnap me if you are still living? How is it possible that you escaped the death penalty?" The woman was so stunned that her mouth hung open; the man who should have been dead was now alive."Hahaha... what do you think, Jennifer—or should I say Cassandra? My father is still alive. Now, it is my turn for revenge," Elena suddenly arrived and walked in."You’ve cheated the law! It’s impossible! I saw it with my own eyes when your father was executed back then." Jennifer still could not believe that Mr Rose was alive."Did you think the law couldn't be bought? Look at all these photos of you with Julian. You won

Chapter: Chapter 74 What Do You Want, Elena? "Are you insane? Your father committed those crimes; he deserves the death penalty. It was Julian who wanted your father dead, not me," Jennifer replied, a flicker of fear crossing her face as Elena seemed to be growing desperate. "I know it was your doing. Just to get your revenge on me, you destroyed my father, my company, and even your own business empire. Why are you still alive? You should have died in that accident," Elena hissed, enraged, as she grabbed Jennifer by the hair. "Ah... that hurts... don't be so rough! What do you want? Please, don't do this! If you need money to survive, just say so! Please, let me go!" Jennifer screamed. "Shut up, you slut! You need to know what it feels like to be destroyed. If I am ruined, then you aren't allowed to be happy—especially not thinking you can rekindle things with Julian. That will never happen," Elena said.

Chapter: Chapter 73I Want You Dead“Mr Julian… he is currently in a coma. It is likely it will be a long time before he regains consciousness,” the doctor finally finished his sentence in a low voice. “The impact to his head during the fall after being shot has caused serious brain trauma. Medically, he is stable, but in terms of consciousness, we do not know when he will wake up. It could be tomorrow, it could be next month, or perhaps… never.”Jennifer’s world felt as though it were collapsing. The words "never" echoed in her ears like a death knell. She slumped onto a waiting chair, burying her face in her trembling palms. The tears she had been holding back now flowed freely, wetting the bruises on her cheeks that were beginning to turn blue.“Julian… don't leave me like this,” she whispered hoarsely. “You haven't heard me forgive you yet. You haven't seen Aurora grow up.”In the distance, behind the shadows of the emergency exit, Elena listened to every word with a terrifying, cynical smile. To her

Chapter: Chapter 72Elena Returns "I hope you survive, Julian. I will forgive you if you wake up. At the very least, you must wake up for our daughter's sake, so she has her biological father." Jennifer was consumed by grief; she hoped the man who had once caused her so much pain would soon rouse from his deep, injury-induced slumber. A few moments later, amidst the tension of the ongoing surgery, Jennifer felt as though time had come to a standstill. She cared nothing for the bruises on her cheeks from Ricard’s slap, or the stinging pain on her wrists where the iron chains had chafed. Her mind was fixed solely on the man inside—the man she had cursed for the last seven years, yet who had turned out to be the only protector willing to die for her. However, behind a massive pillar just ten metres from where Jennifer sat, a pair of sharp eyes watched her intently. A woman stood there, concealed within the shadows of the dimly lit corridor. She appeared to be around Julian’s age, dressed in an elegant y
