Amora’s eyes flickered toward Albert, who was still waiting for her decision. However, she kept talking and asked, “Mr. Parker, as a man, what do you think makes a man angry for no reason?”

Albert was momentarily stunned. He hesitated before asking, “Are you referring to the Young Master?”

Amora cleared her throat awkwardly. “Is it that obvious?”

“Forgive me, Madam. I spoke out of turn,” Albert replied, worried that his presumptive remark might offend her.

“Forget it, Mr. Parker. I just want to know ... has your boss ever been angry without a reason?” Amora probed. She thought perhaps Albert, who had been with Regis for a long time, would understand him better.

Albert pondered for a moment and said, “I apologize, Madam. I can’t read his mind, but in my opinion, his anger always has a reason. For instance, if we fail to carry out our duties or upset him because ...”

“Because of what?” Amora raised an eyebrow.

“Because you pay more attention to other people than to him,” Albert answered

    “Go on in. The Boss is waiting for you inside,” said the guard, leading Rayden to the grand main doors of the Volker estate.Rayden tilted his head up to look at the fierce-faced man, then replied, “Thanks, Uncle Bear.”The guard’s brow immediately furrowed, and Rayden flinched. Without waiting for a response, the boy quickly slipped into the room.The man, one of Alejandro Volker’s subordinates—could only smirk at the kid’s reaction before turning around and heading back to his post.Rayden let out a quiet sigh of relief once the bear-like man was no longer in sight. He took a moment to scan his surroundings.“It’s even more amazing inside,” he murmured in awe, taking in the elegant, luxurious interior.Earlier, a guard had driven him up to the estate in a buggy car. He had already been impressed by the perfectly manicured grounds outside, but the European-style mansion was something else entirely on the inside.Even though everything felt completely unfamiliar, Rayden had gathered t

    “Let me go!” Rayden screamed hysterically.The boy kept struggling, but his feet couldn’t touch the ground, and his fists were useless against the officer holding him.All Rayden could do was scream!“Hey, Kid! Quit yelling! Do you want us to get caught sneaking into a restricted area?” The officer snapped in frustration.“Help! Somebody help me!”Rayden didn’t care. He kept screaming, hoping to catch the attention of the guards at the grand mansion in front of them. They were still a good distance from the gate, but he believed his voice would carry.And … it worked!One of the guards at the gate turned his flashlight toward them. The beam was so bright that both Rayden and the officer instinctively shielded their eyes with their hands.“Damn it, Kid! Now we’re in trouble. Don’t you get it? These people are dangerous,” The officer hissed at him.Rayden's face paled. But he wasn’t afraid of the mansion guards. What scared him more was what might’ve happened to his mother.“Who’s there

    In the dead of night, on a quiet paved road lined with towering, lush trees, a traffic patrol car cruised at a steady pace through a luxurious residential area. The elegant homes sparkled under dazzling lights, showcasing their grandeur.The patrol car continued down the road, veering away from the posh neighborhood and onto a steeper path. It was still paved, but now surrounded only by trees and dim lighting, causing the officer behind the wheel to start feeling uneasy.“Kid, are you sure this is where you’re headed?” The officer asked the small figure sitting beside him.The handsome young boy turned and nodded. “Yes, Sir. Just follow the coordinates,” he said, pointing to a mini tablet in his hands.The middle-aged officer sighed, his eyes scanning the surroundings. There were no more houses in sight.Instead, the atmosphere grew tense as they entered deeper into the wooded area. The sounds of nocturnal creatures echoed through the dense trees.If it weren’t for the boy tugging at

    Time passed quickly. The night sky had grown darker, and the bustling activity that filled the hospital earlier that day had now quieted. Most of the patients in the inpatient wing were already asleep, though a few were still awake.One of them was Regis Lorenzo. He had been moved to a regular hospital room after Noel checked on his condition.Regis’ sharp gaze was fixed on the door, where the shadows of two Golden Snake subordinates—assigned to watch over him—were visible. But suddenly, their silhouettes vanished, followed by a loud thud from outside.‘Looks like it’s time,’ Regis thought.He slowly climbed out of bed and grabbed the long white coat Noel had prepared for him. He winced quietly as he tried to lift his arm to put it on.His wounds hadn’t fully healed, but Regis was determined to leave that night, even though Noel had strictly forbidden it.After putting on a face mask, Regis cautiously opened the door. Peeking out, he saw both guards lying unconscious on the floor.‘Gu

    “I had no choice. You know how famous the Ritter name is—I couldn’t take that risk,” Noel explained regarding his current disguise.Regis understood his reasoning and thought it was actually a smart move. If Hank and his crew had found out the doctor treating Regis was from the Ritter family, Noel would’ve been dead by now. After all, everyone knew the Ritters worked for the Lorenzo family.Regis’s gaze shifted toward the female nurse who had been silently watching them the whole time.“She’s my assistant. She’s in disguise, too,” Noel said, as if he already knew what Regis was thinking.Without waiting for any questions, Noel began explaining what had happened four hours ago, when he had just arrived at one of his friends’ hospital branches—the very one where Regis was now staying. At first, Noel was only there for a brief meeting to exchange ideas with some of the doctors.But by chance, he saw Regis being rushed into the emergency room in critical condition. Worried, Noel decided t

    "How did the patient end up like this, Sir?" Noel asked sharply, clearly shocked. He stared intently at Hank, demanding an explanation for the patient's current condition."I'm sorry, Doctor. I was just trying to keep him from leaving the room," Hank replied reluctantly. There wasn't much he could say under the scrutiny of a doctor's investigation.Noel let out a deep sigh, then turned his attention back to Regis. "How are you feeling right now, Sir?"Instead of answering, Regis suddenly grabbed Noel’s wrist, startling his cousin."Young Master Lorenzo, what are you doing?" Hank snapped, moving to pry Regis’s hand off the doctor.But Noel lifted his free hand and said calmly, "It's okay, Sir. I think he's still having trouble speaking."Hank narrowed his eyes at Regis. He had heard Regis struggling to speak earlier, so he reluctantly stepped back and allowed the doctor to proceed.Noel quietly exhaled again, watching Regis closely. There was a look in Regis’s eyes—like he was trying t

    "W-Where ... am I?"A raspy, weak voice broke the silence in a room thick with the sharp scent of disinfectant. A man had just opened his eyes after being unconscious for hours.Bandages wrapped around his body from shoulder to arm, and dark bruises marred his once-handsome face.Aside from the steady beep of the heart monitor, the only sound he could hear was his own breathing. It didn’t take long for him to realize he was in an ICU room."Amora ….” The name flashed through his mind. The man—Regis Lorenzo—tried to push himself off the hospital bed with whatever strength he had left.He yanked out the wires attached to his chest and tore out the IV from the back of his hand, causing blood to trickle down.But Regis didn’t care. He tried to get off the bed anyway, only to collapse as dizziness overwhelmed him.The anesthesia hadn’t fully worn off. He reached out blindly for support but ended up knocking over a glass on the bedside table instead.The crash and chaos drew the attention o

    "Amora ...."Alejandro’s heart felt like it was being torn apart. He never imagined his daughter would reject him like this.Amora’s eyes blazed coldly. “If you were really a good father who cared about your daughter’s happiness, you wouldn’t have dragged her into your stupid feud with your enemy,” she snapped in a frosty tone.Alejandro gave a bitter smile because everything she said was true.He had deliberately left Amora in the care of the Lysander family to keep her hidden from his enemies. He’d even faked her death to protect her. But in the end, he had still pulled her into danger. And without realizing it, he had become one of the reasons her happiness had shattered.Even though Amora knew Alejandro deeply regretted his past decisions, forgiveness didn’t come that easily. No remedy could heal wounds already carved into her heart.Slowly, Amora lowered her gaze. She had let her emotions spiral too far, and now her head throbbed painfully. But that physical pain was nothing comp

    Amora’s lips trembled slightly. Her eyes began to well up with tears as she stared directly at the man whose eye color matched hers so perfectly.Her voice caught in her throat, as if something heavy was lodged there. Tear after tear streamed down her cheeks, but her gaze remained sharp, piercing—as she stared at the middle-aged man claiming to be her father.A faint, bitter smirk tugged at the corner of her lips. She took a moment to compose herself before finally letting a single word escape.“Father?”The way she said it dripped with sarcasm, laced with pain—and it hit Alejandro hard. Alejandro could clearly see the hatred in his daughter’s eyes.He had expected this kind of reaction from her. He hadn’t come to beg for forgiveness—only to make his presence known.“Are you kidding me, Sir?” Amora said with a bitter laugh. It was a laugh full of sadness.“Amora,” Alejandro took a deep breath to steady himself before continuing, “I’m not joking. I am your biological father.”Amora fro
