Jia stood frozen, her hand hovering near the door handle. Silvio had stepped closer, trying to brush past her.Without thinking, she slammed the door shut and pressed her back against it, eyes darting to both children.Silvio can't see Kian. He mustn't."Is everything okay?" Kian asked, his voice soft but alert.Jia nodded quickly and crossed the room. She crouched beside him.. grabbing his small hand "Come here"She opened the wardrobe and gently lifted him inside "Stay here" she whispered, eyes locked on his "Don't come out until Mommy says so” "But why?" Kian asked, eyes wide, curiosity flickering behind them.A sharp knock on the door sliced through the air.Jia flinched, her heart pounded against her chest. She leaned in, kissed the top of Kian's head "Please, No questions…Just listen” Kian nodded "Okay” She looked at him one last time before closing the wardrobe door - not too tight, just enough.Another knock.Kira tilted her head "Who's at the door? Why does Kian have to

She turned to leave but Silvio was faster. He caught her hand..pulling her gently but firmly to his chest. The man stepped back, sensing the shift in atmosphere. Silvio's eyes flicked toward him, sharp..No words were needed. "I will wait outside" the man said quickly, bowing slightly before disappearing through the front door. Silvio's gaze returned to Jia "Don't you like the house?" Jia's eyes darted across the wide, empty living room. Her voice was low, almost lost in the silence "I do... but-" "She turned to leave-but Silvio was faster. He caught her hand..pulling her gently but firmly to his chest.

The man curled his fingers into his lap. Then.. looking back at Silvio, he repeated " i wasn't sent by anyone"Silvio gave a small nod, He flicked his cigarette aside "Deal with him" he said"Yes, Don" one of his men repliedBefore the captive could react, one of Silvio’s men stepped forward and sprayed acid directly into his eyes.The man screamed, clawing at his face as his skin sizzled and blistered. He staggered to his feet.. then collapsed, thrashing on the floor."My eyes! My eyes!"Silvio walked closer, calm and almost casual. He raised his gun and pointed it at the man writhing on the floor, still clutching at the melted mess of his face.A single shot cracked through the air.The man's body jerked violently before collapsing, limp. The bullet had punched straight through his foreheadBlood exploded everywhere, covering the floor and a droplet of blood landed on Silvio’s cheek. He pulled a crisp white handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the blood from his face, then look

Silvio stood just outside his underground parking garage. He tried Jia's number again—still off. A sharp curse left his lips. The only clue he had was the last word she had whispered "Hilux."That was enough.He scrolled through his contacts and dialed one of his men "Meet me, we are heading to the Hilux Hotel” he ordered. Without waiting for a reply, he slid into his white car and drove out of the lot.His men followed close behind, weaving through the sluggish traffic When Silvio’s car finally pulled up in front of the HiluxHotel, he wasted no time.

A single glare from him was enough to send a wave of unease through the room.The hotel security guard stepped forward, hand raised to intervene. But before he could say a word, one of Silvio's men lunged at him, grabbed his collar and threw him aside like a ragdoll.Gasps ec

Jia's eyes fluttered open to a white ceiling. She blinked, her gaze drifting until it landed on Silvio, standing at the large transparent window. One hand was tucked in his pocket, the other held a phone to his ear "Silvio" she whispered, struggling to sit up He turned sharply at the sound of her voice, ended the call and strode to her side. Without a word.. he grabbed a large pillow and gently propped it behind her back."Are you okay?" he asked, his eyes fixed on hers She stared at him, flashes from the night before surged through her—panic, fear and the moment everything could have gone horribly wrong... until he appeared. Her chest clenched. Silently, she reached up and wrapped her arms around his neck.Silvio froze then slowly, he returned the hug, his hand coming up to smooth her hair.Jia leaned back slightly and placed a hand on his shoulder, guiding his eyes to meet hers "Thank you" she saidHe didn't answer right away, his hand lingered at her temple, fingers brushi
