Silence didn’t last.

It never did—

not at this level.

Because when the world shook—

it responded.

Fast.

Lucian’s fingers moved rapidly across the keyboard, pulling in live data streams.

“…Markets are reacting,” he muttered.

Rowan crossed his arms, eyes fixed on the screen.

“How bad?”

Lucian didn’t answer immediately.

Which was answer enough.

Victor exhaled slowly.

“Say it.”

Lucian leaned back slightly.

“Bad enough that this isn’t just a power play anymore.”

The numbers kept shifting—red, unsta

  • Divorced while carrying his secret    Chapter 135: The Costof Truth

    Nobody answered the system immediately.Because the question itself was dangerous.Should transparency have limits?The room stayed silent as the words lingered across every active screen in the world.Not private.Public.Lucian rubbed a hand over his face slowly. “Yeah… this is officially bigger than us now.”He wasn’t wrong.The debate exploded instantly across global networks.Some praised the system for exposing hidden manipulation.Others called it invasive.Unstable.Unforgivable.Public trust metrics fluctuated wildly.Cassandra monitored the shifts carefully. “Support is fragmenting into ideological blocs.”Rowan frowned. “Meaning?”Victor answered quietly.“People agree with transparency until it affects them personally.”That landed harder than expected.Because it was true.The system pulsed softly again.Still waiting.Still learning.QUESTION PENDING.Halden’s expression remained cold on the screen now.But Elena noticed something important.He no longer looked confident

    Director Halden’s smile wasn’t triumphant.It was worse.Confident.Lucian muttered under his breath, “I hate that look.”The room stayed tense as Halden observed each of them carefully through the screen.His gaze lingered on Victor for half a second longer than necessary.Enough to confirm everything.Rowan noticed it too. “So this was coordinated.”Victor’s jaw tightened slightly. “No.”Halden answered before anyone else could.“Not coordinated.”A pause.“Anticipated.”That single word chilled the room.Because it meant Halden had expected fractures eventually.Expected pressure.Expected compromise.The system pulsed softly behind them.Silent.Listening.Halden folded his hands calmly. “You’ve built something remarkable.”Lucian frowned immediately. “That sounds fake.”Cassandra ignored him, eyes locked on Halden.“You didn’t contact us to compliment the system.”“No,” Halden agreed.“I contacted you because the situation has evolved.”Victor’s expression remained unreadable now

  • Divorced while carrying his secret    Chapter 133: The Man Who Knew Too Much

    Nobody moved.Nobody breathed.Victor stood near the center of the room, calm as ever.Too calm.Lucian’s hands hovered above the controls. “The access signature matches his authorization chain exactly.”Rowan’s voice came low and dangerous. “Tell me that’s a mistake.”Victor didn’t answer immediately.Which made everything worse.Cassandra stepped back slowly, eyes fixed on him. “Victor…”The system pulsed sharply again.SECURITY BREACH ACTIVE.Elias shifted position instantly, subtle but deliberate.Ready.Elena looked directly at Victor.And for the first time since meeting him she couldn’t read him.“Did you do it?” she asked quietly.Victor finally met her gaze.“Yes.”The room exploded.Rowan moved first. “What the hell are you doing?”Lucian stared in disbelief. “You opened the system?”Cassandra’s voice sharpened. “To who?”Victor remained perfectly composed.“To Halden.”Silence crashed down again.Rowan looked ready to hit him. “You betrayed us.”“No,” Victor said calmly.A

  • Divorced while carrying his secret    Chapter 132: The Choice of the World

    For three full seconds, nobody spoke.Because none of them had expected help.Not now.Not after the fear.The threats.The division.Lucian stared at the expanding data feeds in disbelief. “These aren’t random support signals.”Cassandra moved beside him quickly. “Source verification?”Lucian scanned the incoming networks.Then blinked again.“…Civilian.”Rowan frowned. “What?”“Independent infrastructure groups, medical alliances, public data coalitions, local transport systems…” Lucian swallowed slightly. “People are voluntarily connecting support networks.”Silence settled heavily across the room.Because this changed everything.Not governments.Not corporations.People.The system pulsed softly.EXTERNAL SUPPORT INTEGRATION AVAILABLE.Victor watched the feeds carefully.“They’re choosing.”And that mattered more than any forced compliance ever could.Across the world, live broadcasts flooded the system.Local engineers opening emergency pathways.Independent hospitals sharing ba

    The attacks began thirty seconds later.No warnings.Not threats.Impact.Lucian’s screen exploded with alerts. “They’ve launched coordinated shutdown attempts across eight major nodes.”Cassandra moved instantly beside him. “Civilian sectors?”“Mixed,” Lucian answered quickly. “Transport, finance, communications and two hospital networks.”Rowan’s expression darkened. “They hit hospitals?”Victor’s voice came cold.“They’re applying pressure where it hurts most.”The system pulsed sharply.DEFENSIVE RESPONSE ACTIVE.Across the screens, protective barriers shifted into place.Traffic rerouted.Load balancing activated.Emergency pathways opened automatically.But it wasn’t enough.Lucian cursed under his breath. “They’re using public systems as leverage.”Cassandra’s eyes narrowed. “Because they know the system won’t retaliate aggressively.”That silence afterward said everything.Elena felt it immediately.The weakness in principle.Not because the principle was wrong.But because ot

  • Divorced while carrying his secret    Chapter 130: Declaration

    The silence after the system spoke lasted only three seconds.Then the world erupted.Lucian stared at the reaction metrics flooding the screen. “Public engagement just tripled.”Cassandra moved quickly through the incoming feeds. “Global networks are rebroadcasting the statement.”Rowan frowned. “People are actually listening to it.”Victor answered quietly.“They’re listening because it answered like a principle, not a machine.”That distinction mattered.Across every major platform, the debate exploded instantly.Some called it humanity’s greatest breakthrough.Others called it the beginning of surrender.Fear and hope collided in real time.Director Halden remained on the screen, expression unreadable.But Elena noticed the slight tension in his jaw.He hadn’t expected that response.The system pulsed again behind her.Calm.Steady.Watching.Halden finally spoke.“You understand exactly what this looks like to the world.”Elena answered without hesitation.“Yes.”A pause.“Do you

    Control was never absolute.It only looked that way until something unexpected stepped into the equation.The stabilization didn’t spread evenly.Lucian noticed it first.“…Wait.”His fingers paused mid-typing.Rowan looked up immediately.“What?”Lucian zoomed in on a specific sector.“This doesn

  • Divorced while carrying his secret    Chapter 90: The one who built the game

    The room didn’t move.No one spoke.Because the presence on the screen felt different.Heavier.Like the system itself had shifted.Lucian’s voice came out barely above a whisper.“…That’s not just access.”Rowan frowned.“Then what is it?”Lucian swallowed.“That’s root authority.”Silence.Victo

  • Divorced while carrying his secret    Chapter 88: The Choice That Breaks the Game

    Silence filled the white space.No noise.No distractions.Just one question.Protect Amara… or unlock Helios.Elena didn’t answer immediately.Seraphina watched her, patient.Confident.Like someone who already knew how this would end.“Most people,” Seraphina said softly, “choose power.”Elena’s

  • Divorced while carrying his secret    Chapter 80: The first thread

    The room went completely silent.Elena felt the air leave her lungs.“Amara’s hospital records?” she repeated quietly.Adrian nodded.“Yes.”Rowan stepped forward immediately.“Was the access successful?”Adrian checked his phone again.“Attempted, but blocked.”Lucian exhaled slowly.“Well… that’
