"Seriously? Do you two have to flirt at a time like this?" Randy grumbled.Marion glanced at Ivan. "You can stay."Then he led Debra back upstairs.Randy frowned. "These two have zero sense of danger."Erica patted his shoulder. "Feels like we're the only ones worried here.""No kidding." Randy shook his head helplessly. "What kind of people are these?"Upstairs, Debra said, "It looks like Andrew is trying to cover for Ivan.""You saw it?" Marion asked."It's so obvious. I'm not that stupid," Debra replied.Marion led her into their room. "The others are not stupid either. They're just playing along with what Andrew said.""So, does that mean Ivan really has a problem?""Yeah.""And Andrew wants us to pretend we don't know?""Exactly. I think he's trying to set up a scheme to turn Ivan from a foe to an ally.""How do we turn him? Reason with him? Appeal to his emotions? Or...""Emotions," Marion mused. "If they can exploit your soft heart to infiltrate us, we'll turn the

"You're giving away your car? Are you out of your mind?" Erica pulled Randy aside and whispered, "This isn't how you redeem a troubled teenager. You're just throwing money at him. As the son of the Trennery family, do you think he's short on money? Use your brain, okay.""What should I do?" Marion groaned. "I've never done anything like this before. If it were a girl, maybe I'd know what to do, but for a guy, I'm clueless.""Step aside. Let me handle this," Erica said, scrolling through her phone.Randy gawked at the screen. "Does Google have an answer for that?""Ever read redemption novels? Way more useful than Google.""What redemption novels?""Here, it says to treat him well, take a bullet for him, and touch him with love.""What? Take a bullet for him? What kind of novel is this? Even if I sacrifice my life, what good is his redemption to me?""That's how it's written in novels. How would I know otherwise?"Not far away, Debra overheard their conversation. Now she was co

Debra, stepping out of her room to find Marion, paused as she passed by the guest room.Standing there was William, shaking his head."What's wrong? Is it serious?" she asked.William let out a deep breath.Debra grew even more anxious. "Is it so bad that even you can't fix him?"Drake had seemed so energetic earlier. It might have been his final burst of strength."It's not like that. I just think Drake's had it rough.""Why?"William glanced at the unconscious man on the bed. "He was cursed to meet someone like Marion."With doubt in mind, Debra stepped into the room and spotted Marion sitting casually by the bed.She asked, "Did you do something to Drake?""Nothing much," Marion replied, glancing at Drake. "William came up with a way to keep him in bed for a while. That's all.""Huh?" Debra walked to the bed and saw Drake's lifeless face. "You had William stab him?""No.""You had him knocked out?""I did that myself.""You must have exerted a lot of strength."Debr

Marion observed Debra's expression and sighed, "With Ralph's capabilities, he never could've made that accident look flawless. It was all just a trap set by the Lowe family. Ralph took the blame for a murder that wasn't his.""What?" Debra was shocked."The person who set Ralph up was the previous head of the Lowe family. He had been working with K for over 20 years. Drake traded this secret for his release from the police station.""You never told me this.""I just didn't want you to be heartbroken."Debra felt a sharp pain in her chest. As expected, the car accident that killed her parents wasn't that simple."You weren't worried about me being heartbroken," she said. "You were just afraid I'd lose my mind and relentlessly pursue the truth just like you're doing now."Marion had been enduring all these years, trying to find the killer of his parents. He kept the pain all to himself."Don't worry. Even if I find out the killer is someone else, I won't act rashly," Debra said.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Liza grumbled. "Drake isn't a good person anyway. His life or death has nothing to do with us."Garland chided, "Drake was once your fiancé. Don't be so harsh."Liza felt embarrassed and shot back, "I am harsh. I just hate him. So what? I don't care."She stormed upstairs, fuming. Garland sighed, knowing her temper too well.Turning to Randy and Erica, he apologized, "I'm sorry about this. I'll talk to her later. We're all decent people here."With that, he hurried upstairs to soothe Liza. Whenever she was upset, she would tell Bert about it. He was afraid that Bert would fly over immediately and spank him.When passing by Drake's room, Liza glanced inside and saw him lying lifeless on the bed. Unbothered by it, she quickly turned away. She even blamed him for the grievance she was suffering."Miss Eaton, why aren't you going in?" Debra asked, suddenly appearing behind her.Startled, Liza sprang around to face her. "I was just thinking about so

"The slums overseas remain slums because the poor stay poor," Debra said slowly. "The wealthy won't hire them. Their only income comes from begging. Maybe a few with strong physiques can do labor work for a meager wage, but the number of people who change their fate is very few. Even if they beg bitterly, they can't afford those expensive medical bills. Just earning enough to live is already tough. If they turn to robbery, it's only because they've hit a dead end."Liza softened her tone. "But as you like, that's just an 'if'.""Yes, it is," Debra agreed. "Maybe the person who robbed you was indeed a vicious criminal, but that doesn't mean there aren't unfortunate souls in the slums. You don't know Drake's character or his past, yet you constantly insult him. Is it just because of his bad reputation? Or because he was once a servant in the Bernard family and then rose above his station?""Who cares about his past? I have no interest," Liza mumbled."Drake was once a child from the

Late at night, on the rooftop of a skyscraper, a man in a black tactical jacket aimed a sniper rifle at the window of an office building across the street.Inside, Caleb sat at the head of the conference table.The sniper wore a white mask. After a moment of adjustment, he fired. The gunshot echoed, and the man inside the meeting room collapsed instantly. Chaos erupted within the office building."Good job!" Behind him, a deep voice spoke. "You're even more promising than Ivan."The sniper turned slowly. His voice was cold and steady. "As I said, Drake will die.""Thankfully, you were there when Ivan missed his shot," the man said, stepping forward and patting the sniper's shoulder. "Now, it's your turn to step into the spotlight.""I'll let you take care of the Lowe Group's resources." His deep voice carried a sinister hint of amusement. "After all, what's more painful than betrayal by someone you trust? Isn't that right, Jordan?"The sniper removed his mask, revealing a sharp,

Because Debra had once said she liked peace and stability, Marion decided to sever ties with the past.The result was that their enemies treated them like sitting ducks without the power to fight back.She blamed herself for being so naïve and soft.Andrew watched from the second floor. Barton said, "Sir, should we tell Mrs. Houston the truth?""Sometimes, growth requires bloodshed," Andrew replied calmly. "She's smart, but her heart's too soft. Having her reassess herself might not be a bad thing. If she wants to find the killer, she needs to carve out her own path in Seamar City. To stand at the top, she has to be merciless."He waved his hand and said, "Let's go back."Barton hesitated. "Sir, aren't you going to guide her? She is beating herself too hard."Andrew glanced downstairs. "She's not that fragile. She'll figure it out. She needs to see the world and understand the rules of survival in Seamar City. Erica and Randy both went through this, but she hasn't yet. Marion he

Night settled in deep.Debra and the crew were still waiting for Michael's reply."Still nothing? They don't buy it, do they?" Erica paced, antsy."Give it time. They'll bite," Debra said, clutching her phone.She had promised Kale she would bring Drake back. No breaking that.A text finally pinged her phone. It was Michael.Everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Like Debra said, the Illuminati couldn't rule out her having the real stone.If theirs was fake, Michael and his crew couldn't afford the fallout."Marion, it's on you now," Debra said.The Houston family had military muscle on tap. The Potter family owned elite guards and intel. Erica and Randy were solid backups.But this meeting? Debra had to go herself."Does it have to be now? Maybe wait till you're healed?" Erica said.Debra shook her head. "Drake is at risk every day he's with them. I can't take that chance. Just like they can't risk us holding the stone.""She's right," Randy jumped in. "Drag this out, and who

"What're you looking at?" Lara asked, stepping out and spotting Michael by the window."Debra says the stone Drake gave us is fake," he replied."What? No way." Drake shot up from his seat."Are you messing with us?" Lara's sharp gaze landed on him."No. Debra's talking nonsense," Drake insisted."We'll see," Michael said, unruffled.Debra was offering the stone on the condition of meeting with their leader. It fit her style."She thinks she can just waltz in and see our master?" Lara sneered."The stone's a big deal to him. I bet he'll agree," Michael replied, shutting his phone."Don't tell me you're sweet on Debra," she hissed. "You keep letting her off. Don't wanna kill her, huh?""Unlike you, I don't get off on killing," he countered. "If she's not in my way, why bother? You're out there slaughtering, just making enemies for the Illuminati. You're venting rather than serving.""You don't get it. I'm building fear for the Illuminati," she justified herself. "They need to

Oscar set down the receiver and threw his hands up. "I'm not resisting. Don't spook my staff," he said.Chace tried to step in, but Oscar's look stopped him.This incident was major. Almost half of Flesta's people had fallen victim.Everyone at the company, Chace included, got hauled in for questioning. As the head, Oscar was the main target.The line went dead, and Debra's heart sank."Those bastards," Randy cursed, "hitting us on both sides. No wonder the Illuminati has been quiet. They have been gunning for our partners.""They're smart," Debra said. "Can't take us head-on, so they go after our allies. They want everyone to see partnering with us as a dead end. If we let this slide, we're doomed eventually.""What should we do?" Erica stomped, fuming. "We just sit here and watch them pick off our friends one by one?""They're showing us what happens if we cross them. They want us to bow. The only way out is to flip the script and strike first.""Strike first? What does th

Seeing Debra's worried look, Marion said, "You should just focus on healing and leave the rest to us. We might not match the Illuminati, but they won't mess with us randomly here in Seamar City."The Four Great Families had ruled Seamar City for a century. Although the former heads had faded, the new generation was sharper and stronger. They could hold off the Illuminati's push.Debra's phone rang. It was Oscar calling."You free? I've got something to tell you," he said.Debra put it on the speaker. No one could guess the aim of his call.In Flesta, the Odom family's business was booming again. He should have been busy with work."What's up?" she asked."There's big trouble in Flesta," he replied. "We didn't want to bug you, but it's spiraling out of control. We're out of moves.""What happened?" She had a bad feeling.Oscar paused. "A new drug has popped up in Flesta. Tons of our staff got hooked, just like regular folks. The police are on it now. We checked our products and

Debra stared at the pendant.What had happened yesterday came flooding back.Kale was gone, and the fact hit her hard."It's my fault," she said in agony. "If he hadn't gone with me, he would have been alive.""Everyone makes their calls," Marion soothed her. "If there's blame, it's on the Illuminati. I was terrified, almost losing you.""I felt like you were nearby, so I wasn't afraid," she said, leaning into him. "They'll pay for hurting Drake and killing Kale. I'll make sure of it.""No matter what happens, we're in this together," he said.Exhaustion took over. She closed her eyes and drifted off.When she woke up, it was already noon the next day. Her injury kept her from moving much.Everyone gathered outside her bedroom. William came in to check on her."You're fine. Just change the dressings on time," he said, packing up his kit. "You guys can come in now."Debra adjusted her clothes and leaned against the headboard. "Sorry to trouble you.""We're in this together,"

William left quickly.Marion got up to lock the door and returned to the bedside.Sitting back into the chair, he switched on a dim lamp, making sure Debra would see him first thing if she woke up."Brother..." Debra mumbled.Marion leaned in. "I'm here."Her murmurs stopped, but her hands shot up, grasping at the air. "It's so dark. Save me."He grabbed her flailing hands right away. "Don't be scared. I'm right here."But she didn't calm down. She clutched his hand, her nails scratching at his skin. "Brother, save me," she murmured, feeling like she was trapped in a pitch-black hold.Cold seawater seemed to swallow her whole. The biting chill seeped into every crack of her body. The stench of the ocean made her gag.The water was up to her chin. She stood on tiptoes, desperate for a breath in that tiny space."Save me." Her eyes flew open.Familiar surroundings came into view. Her pupils darted until they landed on Marion. Her racing heart finally slowed."Marion?" Her v

Not long after, Marion came out with Debra.William nudged Erica and Randy. "Told you it would be soon.""How's she out here fresh after surgery?" Erica gawked.Debra was supposed to recover in the hospital, but seeing her unconscious form on the stretcher, Erica figured he had his reasons."Let's go back," Jordan chimed in. "The Potter Mansion's got a top-notch medical team. If we need gear, I'll grab it.""Yeah, hospitals suck anyway," Randy said. "Let's head back. It's freezing out here."They'd planned to grab food and head in, but Erica had made them wait so Marion could have more time with Debra. Now they were all sniffling."I'm... Achoo." William sneezed again, then bolted for the car. "I'm out of there. It's freaking cold."He had treated so many patients, but this was the first time he had fallen ill.Debra, still out cold, was loaded into the back. Marion stayed close, tending to her.By the time they reached the Potter Mansion, it was the middle of the night.Wil

William rubbed his eyes in disbelief.They had taken the emergency lane to the hospital, but Marion and the others arrived right behind their heels after going through a battle."We floored it. That's not the point," Erica replied.Marion and Jordan were already striding into the hospital.Randy grabbed Erica's arm. "Come on. Let's go.""Huh? William is still here." She was puzzled.Inside, the operating room's red light glowed.Marion arrived first. The hospital director greeted him, saying, "Mrs. Houston is in surgery now. Our top doctors have assessed her. The wound's been handled perfectly, and she is out of danger."Marion's face softened a bit. Erica heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank God. She's fine now."They'd been terrified seeing Debra collapse in a pool of blood."You're wiped out. Why don't you rest a bit?" Erica said, turning to Marion."I'll wait here," he replied, his eyes glued to the red light.Until it turned green, he couldn't rest his mind at ease."Well

Michael raised an eyebrow. "My plan never included you. Does our master know you snuck here from Orkgate? And you've got the nerve to question me?"Lara glared at him, her body aching from the burns. Her face twisted with anger."Take Miss Sharp back for treatment. It will take two hours to get back, so she'll have to tough it out," Michael ordered, unfazed.Before leaving with his crew, he lamented sanctimoniously, "Such a shame, ruining a pretty face like that."Lara clenched her fists, incandescent with rage....In the ambulance, Debra coughed up another mouthful of blood. It splattered right onto William's white coat."Aw." William almost griped about the mess, holding back only at the sight of her bad condition.He had to save her, no matter what. It was a promise he'd made to Andrew.He didn't even want to think about what would happen to him if Debra didn't make it today."Maybe another shot of painkiller? We've gotta get that bullet out fast," a medic suggested."Yo
