The penthouse Kane had provided Marcus was everything a man could dream of—floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the skyline, leather furnishings imported from Italy, and a fully stocked bar with bottles worth more than some people’s annual salary. Yet Marcus sat on the edge of the designer sofa, restless, his glass of bourbon untouched.

For most, this place was luxury. To Marcus, it was a gilded cage.

He rubbed his temples, his mind spinning with the events of the last few weeks. Kane had dragged him deeper into schemes he never wanted to be part of. Marcus had entered Kane’s circle because of ambition, because Kane promised influence and wealth. But now, he was realizing that Kane’s generosity came with invisible chains—chains far stronger than any promise of money.

Kane’s control was everywhere. The bodyguards shadowing him when he went out “for his safety.” The security system installed in his penthouse that Marcus hadn’t requested. The “assistants” Kane assigned him—always polite,

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 40 Eyes in the Dark

    The hum of servers filled Ethan’s study as he sat before a wall of glowing monitors. Lines of code flickered across the screens, data streams his system processed faster than any human could hope to follow. The city’s heartbeat pulsed through his network: transactions, communications, shipping logs, even whispers pulled from the dark web.Normally, it gave Ethan a sense of control, like he was watching the city from above, untouchable. But tonight, something felt different. Wrong.The System’s familiar voice broke the silence, sharp and clinical:[Alert: Unusual surveillance activity detected. Multiple interception attempts targeting Host’s communications. Source probability: 92% linked to Kane Veylor’s network.]Ethan froze, leaning forward. “Surveillance?”The interface expanded, showing red threads snaking across the digital map. Phone taps, encrypted probes into financial records, background checks on Leah and Alexander. Kane wasn’t just moving his pieces in the open—he was diggin

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 39 Cracks in the Throne

    Kane lounged in the leather chair at the head of his private conference room, a glass of whiskey resting lazily in his hand. The golden liquid swirled in the dim light, casting reflections against the polished oak table where his lieutenants had gathered only moments before. The meeting had ended, but Kane hadn’t dismissed them immediately. Instead, he sat in silence, observing.They thought he wasn’t paying attention, but Kane always was. That was why he had survived. That was why he had risen higher than anyone else in this city’s underworld. Money, power, influence—he controlled it all. Yet tonight, he felt it: the faintest tremor in the air, like the first crack in a fortress wall.Something was wrong.Richard, usually cocky and loud, had been tapping his fingers too much, his laughter a little too forced. Peter, the youngest recruit, had kept stealing nervous glances toward Marcus as though searching for reassurance. And Marcus himself—Marcus, who had stood by Kane from the very

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 38 The Message in the Shadows

    Ethan sat alone in his study, the soft glow of his computer monitors casting long shadows across the room. The system had just finished running a diagnostics check on his latest investment portfolio when a soft chime sounded—a notification from one of his lesser-known shell corporations.He frowned. That account was rarely used, a silent placeholder in the intricate web of companies and funds he controlled through the Trillionaire System. Hardly anyone knew it existed, and those who did would never send a casual message through it.Ethan leaned forward, scanning the encrypted text.“The shadows tighten. A storm brews within your enemy’s house. Some who sit at his table are not there by choice. If you seek allies, watch carefully. The cracks are forming.”His eyes narrowed.The phrasing was strange—formal, almost poetic. It wasn’t the kind of message a scammer or hacker would waste time sending. No, this was deliberate. Someone was trying to tell him something without leaving a trail.

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 36 Shadows of Doubt

    Marcus Dale had always thought of himself as a man of action. In Kane’s world, hesitation could mean death, and questions were a luxury that no one could afford. Yet after meeting Ethan Cross in that dingy bar, questions were all he had.All the way back to his apartment, Marcus replayed Ethan’s words in his mind. Storms pass. Pawns get sacrificed. Free to choose your own future. They cut deeper than he expected, gnawing at the walls he had built around himself.He had sworn loyalty to Kane. Not because he admired him, but because Kane had saved his sister, Julia, from a prison sentence that would have destroyed her life. Kane pulled strings, made charges disappear, and demanded Marcus’s service in return. For years, Marcus told himself it was a fair deal—his muscle and intelligence in exchange for Julia’s freedom.But now, for the first time, he wondered if he had simply traded one prison for another.Kane’s CallThe shrill buzz of his secure phone snapped Marcus out of his thoughts.

  • The Trillionaire System   Chapter 35 A Crack in the Ranks

    The following morning, Ethan awoke with the system’s words still burning in his mind: Turn His Own Against Him.It wasn’t just a suggestion. It was a directive—a key step toward dismantling Kane Veylor’s empire from within. If he could pull one of Kane’s trusted men to his side, he’d have leverage that could topple an entire section of Kane’s foundation.But the risk was staggering.Over breakfast, Alexander scrolled through the dossiers he’d compiled overnight. “I’ve narrowed down possible targets. These are Kane’s top six lieutenants. Each one oversees a major wing of his operations—shipping, enforcement, money laundering, political influence, cybercrime, and recruitment.” He set the tablet down between them.Ethan leaned forward, studying the faces. Hardened men with eyes that spoke of years in the shadows. All except one.Leah noticed it too. She tapped the screen on a particular name. “Marcus Dale,” she said.The man in the profile photo couldn’t have been older than thirty, with
