“I object!”

The words still seemed to echo in the air even after Nathan had spoken them. The room had fallen into a tense silence, thick and suffocating.

Charlotte was the first to recover from the shock.

Her face hardened instantly, and whatever softness had been there moments ago vanished.

“You’re not welcome here,” she burst out, her voice sharp and trembling with anger. She stepped slightly in front of Caleb as if shielding him. “Leave.”

Nathan did not move. His breathing was slow but hea

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 112: Between Power and Loyalty to Service

    “How dare you sit there and watch one of your boys, that bastard called Inspector Ford, meddle in my affairs?” Nathan’s voice exploded the moment the call connected, his anger pouring through the line without restraint. He stood beside his desk, one hand gripping the receiver tightly while the other pressed hard against the polished wood surface, his knuckles whitening from the force.On the other end, the man receiving the call remained silent for a brief second before responding. “Mr. Mills,” Commissioner Harold Whitaker said, his voice calm and measured, carrying the authority of a man used to power but careful in how he exercised it. “What are you talking about? What did Inspector Ford do this time?”Nathan didn’t respond immediately.There was a pause.A dangerous one.Then he let out a short, humorless chuckle, the sound low and filled with disbelief. “You seriously don’t have an idea?” he asked, his tone dripping with sarcasm before he continued without waiting for a response.

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 111: The Order

    Just as Nathan was about to rise from his seat, his body still carrying the momentum of the command he had just given, a knock came at the door.The sound was soft.Cautious.It carried the unmistakable tone of someone who understood the kind of man they were interrupting.Nathan’s movement paused mid-action, his jaw tightening slightly as his gaze shifted toward the door.The door opened gently and his secretary stepped in.She held an iPad close to her chest and a brown envelope in her other hand. Her posture was careful, her steps measured as she approached the desk, fully aware of the tension that already filled the room.“Sir, this just came in,” she said, her voice polite but slightly tense as she extended the envelope toward him. “For you.”Nathan’s eyes dropped to the envelope.For a brief moment, he didn’t take it. Then slowly, he reached out and collected it.The moment his fingers touched it, something shifted.His eyes moved to the top corner. To the stamped address.And

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 110: The Confidential File

    That evening, Marcel sat alone in his study, the soft glow from his laptop screen illuminating his face as his fingers moved quickly across the keyboard. The room was quiet, save for the faint clicking sound of the keys and the distant noise of his children playing somewhere in the house.He had been working on this for hours.Every detail.Every trace.Every piece of information he could gather about Inspector Gerald Ford.Now, it was all coming together.Marcel leaned slightly forward in his chair, his eyes narrowing in concentration as he scrolled through the compiled report. He had already organized everything neatly, cross-checking facts, verifying sources, and ensuring there were no gaps that could draw Nathan’s anger.He exhaled slowly.Almost done.Just one last file.A friend within the police force had sent it earlier that day. It had taken longer to access than expected, which was partly why he had been delayed.Marcel clicked on it.The screen flickered slightly before o

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 109: "Go Save the World, Boy."

    The next morning arrived quietly, but for Inspector Gerald Ford, there was nothing calm about it.The early sunlight filtered through the tall buildings as his car came to a stop outside Charlotte’s apartment complex. He stepped out, his mind already running through possibilities, questions, and loose ends that refused to settle.Something wasn’t right.From everything Charlotte had said the night before, from the fear in her voice, from the way Nathan had acted, Gerald knew this case was far from ordinary. It wasn’t just about abduction anymore. It was deeper, messier, and far more dangerous than it appeared on the surface.He made his way upstairs quickly, his footsteps firm against the tiled floor. When he reached her apartment door, he paused briefly before pushing it open.The moment he stepped inside, his instincts kicked in immediately.The place was a mess.Drawers were pulled out and left hanging open. Clothes were scattered across the floor. Cushions had been ripped apart a

    “Uhm…” Gerald started, his voice trailing off slightly as he processed what he had just heard. He exchanged a quick glance with Sergeant Daniel Reeves, whose expression clearly mirrored his own shock, though his hand continued moving across the notepad, documenting every word Charlotte had said with disciplined focus. Gerald cleared his throat and leaned forward slightly. “Okay. Go ahead.”Charlotte swallowed hard.Her fingers tightened around the edge of the table for a brief moment before she forced herself to continue. The weight of what she was about to say pressed heavily against her chest, but she knew there was no turning back now.“Recently, before the abduction,” she began slowly, choosing her words carefully, “I discovered that the Deans are not my true parents.”The room seemed to grow quieter.Even the faint sounds from outside the office faded into the background as both officers focused entirely on her.Charlotte inhaled deeply before continuing.“According to the DNA t

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 107: The Truth Laid Officially

    “Am I under arrest, Inspector Ford?” Charlotte asked, her voice carrying a mix of fear and uncertainty as her eyes moved from Gerald to the other officer standing beside him, who held a small notepad and pen, ready to document every word spoken in the room.Charlotte was seated opposite Inspector Gerald Ford in his office that same night, not long after they arrived at the station. The room was modest but orderly, with a large wooden desk separating them, files stacked neatly at one corner, and a dim overhead light casting a steady glow that made everything feel both official and slightly intimidating. The quiet hum of activity from outside the office filtered faintly through the walls, reminding her that this was a place where serious matters were handled daily.The journey to the station hadn't been easy for her.As the police car moved through the night, Charlotte had grown increasingly restless. She sat in the back seat, her fingers clasped tightly together as she stared out of

  • May We Never Meet Again   Chapter 8: Buried Alive

    Her eyes met Nathan’s as she was dragged down the hallway.They locked onto his face with raw desperation, tears flooding them, spilling freely as she struggled weakly against the guards’ grip. Her lips trembled, forming silent pleas she could no longer voice properly. If he looked closely, he wou

    Dr. Harrison turned back to face Nathan, his steps slow, his brows drawn together in concern. The atmosphere in the room had shifted completely. What had started as a tense conversation now felt like a ticking bomb. He could sense it clearly, the way everyone’s breathing had changed, the way Mega

    A few days later, the house was unusually quiet.Charlotte sat alone in the living room, the curtains half drawn, the late afternoon light spilling softly across the carpet. In her hands was a small stack of photographs, slightly worn at the edges, corners bent from how often she had looked at the

    Charlotte stood quietly at the far corner of the hall, her back close to a tall marble pillar, as though she needed something solid to keep her upright. The music, the laughter, the sparkle of the place all felt distant, muffled, like she was watching everything through thick glass.Then the murmu
