I sat silently on the hospital bed with white sheets, in a room that was bright but also cold. My hair was wet from the rain, sticking messily to my temples and neck. My clothes were crumpled and damp, the thin jacket hanging open, revealing faint water stains on my shirt.

I stared straight at the pale wall, as if trying to separate myself from the commotion around me. Outside the half-open door, shadows of police officers moved back and forth. Muffled conversations drifted in. I knew they woul

  • Unravelling The Billionaire's Mask   INTEROGATIONS

    HARRY'S POV.The interrogation room was dead silent. There was only the confinement of windowless, gray concrete walls and the dim glow of a flickering yellowish incandescent bulb on the ceiling, casting strange, elongated shadows.In the center of the room, a rusted iron table separated two contrasting poles. On one side, a forced silence; on the other, an intimidating composure.The ticking of the mechanical wall clock in the corner sounded like the slow, constant, and demanding strikes of a judge's gavel. Faint wisps of cigarette smoke rose from a crowded zinc ashtray, dancing slowly before vanishing into the darkness of the room's corner.Liam sat leaning back in his chair. So calm. His sharp, ice-cold gaze stared straight at me without a single word. A thin smile, heavy wit

    I nodded slowly, taking a deep breath before reaching for the black canvas bag, which felt far heavier than its actual size. As I unzipped it, the distinct scent of old, musty paper immediately wafted out, bringing a cold atmosphere that instantly shifted the mood of the room.Inside, the stack of folders was not neatly arranged, but rather crammed together like secrets forced into silence.At the very top lay a thick, maroon plastic folder, its surface covered in fine scratches. The pages inside consisted of printed cargo shipping manifests, fluctuating cash flow charts, and a list of aliases with red ink markings next to them, indicating who had already been "eliminated" from the system.The papers inside the red folder rustled softly as my fingers turned the first page. Each sheet was encased in a plastic protect

    “Since when did you know about this place?”I asked Rose curiously. We were sitting facing the tubes inside the oven, while... not really knowing what we were supposed to do.“A long time ago. David brought me here.”I glanced at her, my look full of questions. “Why did he bring you here?”“Business. I was Dr. John’s trusted person, and Dr. John was close to me. So it was only natural that David trusted me too,” Rose replied.The atmosphere in the laboratory was peaceful. The sound of the fume hood wasn’t too loud, just a soft hum echoing faintly through the silence of the room. The white ceiling lights cast a bright glow that reflected off the stainless-steel workbenches, making the entire laboratory look clean and organized.Rows of test tubes and beakers were neatly arranged on glass shelves. Occasionally, a faint dripping sound could be heard as liquid fell into a waste collection container. The familiar scent of chemicals blended with the cool air from the ventilation system, cre

    I was still clutching the bag tightly, holding it as if I never wanted to let it go. With every passing second, my curiosity grew. Rose said this bag would be very useful once we reached our destination.The question was would we even get there? Would I reach that destination when David couldn’t even be contacted?Those thoughts swirled in my mind as my feet kept moving. I followed Rose from behind, slowly. Her hair flowed beautifully, her figure full and tall. Honestly, she looked more like a fashion model than someone being hunted by a criminal. She was too beautiful for that.Moments later, we stood behind a white van with the plate number 1005. Several men stepped out of the van and opened the door for us.The journey began.An unfamiliar road, a vast garden with only a narrow path. No signs, no human voices. Just the whisper of the wind and, occasionally, birds flying past before disappearing into the shadows of the leaves. In the distance, a large building could be faintly seen,

    We walked down the corridor to the very end of the building. A tall brown door stood before us. Its surface was smooth and polished, with a silver metal handle that looked cold and untouched.Slowly, Mr. Albert took out a thin black card with a silver line along its edge. He glanced at me briefly before lifting the card toward a small panel beside the door.Click.The door opened.Inside, dozens of paintings lined the walls. The paint was still wet. Some strokes had not fully dried, glistening under the light. Small droplets were still slowly running down one corner of a canvas, as if the painter had just set down the brush and left without even cleaning it.“Who does this room belong to?”

    Rose became unsettling after my last conversation with her. The change was so obvious, as if she were confirming that my suspicions were true. And yet, strangely, I felt protected. There was a side of Rose that understood the situation better than I did.I didn’t really know her. But I could conclude one thing—she was not the ordinary assistant I had initially thought she was.After two hours passed, Rose asked me to leave the place. She said the staff had started to grow suspicious because we had been sitting in front of the aquarium for hours, and the children who came seemed uncomfortable with our presence.I didn’t know. And truthfully, I didn’t fully believe her. Maybe she had another plan. But since I currently had no one else I could trust, I followed her.Golden Gate Park, 4:00 p.m. (Mr

    3 more Hours.I sat in front of the large aquarium, letting the bluish light from inside the tank wash over my face. The water behind the glass looked calm, shimmering softly whenever the ceiling lights reflected on its

    “They’re looking for you.”Rose pulled a large bag from beside her and placed it right in front of me. “These are the files you were looking for,” she said sincerely. “Dr. John asked

    I packed the belongings I had brought to the hospital. While there was no news from David, I stayed there, reflecting, thinking about what my next move should be.I was stuck.I was confused.Lost without direction after David became unreachable.Dr. John asked me to stay at his house until things

    After that meeting, Harry and I went our separate ways. I headed back home, grabbed the essentials, and then waited at the hospital while keeping Bella, Jack’s sister and a kidnapping victim, company. As for Harry… I didn't know. I wasn't privy to the police's specific plans. However, I hoped he co
