Adrian looked totally normal and composed as he walked to open the steel door.Without wasting time, when he heard the knock at the door, he quickly put on one of the guards’ uniforms.Thankfully, they had a mask that covered their faces. Although the guards didn’t often use it to cover their faces anyway, now it was to Adrian’s advantage.“Hello, Mr. Gabriel says that he doesn’t want any disturbance. Please don’t come again,” he said once he opened the door.A group of five men with guns were standing by. They just wanted to ask questions, but before they could speak, Adrian had already said what he wanted to say.Without another word, he closed the door in their faces. Even the guard who seemed to take the lead flinched as the breeze slapped his face hard.He couldn’t get angry at the guard for following instructions anyway. “Let’s go,” he said in a shrugged tone.Adrian wasn’t used to a place like this, but he was used to being composed and bold when it came to facing off situation

Once inside the room, despite the suit meant to prevent the cold from penetrating their bodies, it still felt like they could breathe in the raw icy air.Without wasting time, Adrian approached the area that looked different from the other constructions in the building.This literally suggested that the building was made up of different sections and that different members of the Voss family handled each one.They walked past the guards without issues, using the Voss card.Just as they entered into the separate building—still inside the same overall structure, but apart from the general activity going on—the warmth from within sent a shiver through their marrows. It was as if it cured them from the cold they had just endured.Soon after they entered, they both pulled off their heat-warmer sweaters.The atmospheric temperature here felt quite like home—balanced and normal compared to the other parts of the building.Peter stretched out his arms and closed his eyes, inhaling the cozy air

Kane, in his room after a moment of sitting, had been thinking for a while.Henry must think of me as a bad father already, all because of that useless mother of his I married. How could I let her get to me like that? His anger burned like flames that refused to die.He had always cared especially for his kids—they were the only things he cared about. Even though he maltreated his wife, he’d always done it in secret, never letting the children see.But this time, he had grown more aggressively angry with her.And now he felt horrified that he might have created the image of a monster in his children’s eyes.Imagining his son behind the door, listening and watching, the moment he heard that slam, a chill ran down his spine. He couldn’t believe Henry might now hate him for trying to hit his mother. He felt no amount of explanation could ever erase that hatred.Already he imagined a future where he’d want to hand over his legacy to his son before leaving this world—but how could he do th

Kane’s fist tightened up. His dark eyes pierced at Adrian.Just who’s this guy? he thought.The reason why he hadn’t informed the guard that he should come in with his team and tell them it’s a situation going on was because he believed in himself and felt he was strong enough to take Adrian down without any concerns.He stood tall enough to feel like he was covering Adrian on the floor already. To him, his height was an advantage to fight anyone.This was no different from his guards he toyed with and even used as punching bags. He’d analyzed within himself.But what made him more careful about his move was that look on Adrian’s face. He seemed to carry the demeanor of a strong-willed person, ready to face him.“Who are you?” he asked in a stern voice. The air felt his anger as he spoke.“Are you one of those government spies?” he asked.To Kane, even if his family had a good relationship with the mil

Right now if they could know who did the whole thing it’d have been a better situation, because only then they can explain to the family that this is what really happened, and proof as video could help them explain it. And maybe, just maybe, they won’t have to all die.When they all first were brought to this place, they’d take them through training process and then reveal threatening information to them.They were aware that a bomb was planted at every corner of the building. And that meant one thing—that instead of their secrets being exposed, they’d kill all of them on the spot, and when they all die there’d be no one to escape then.This fear gripped their hearts in ways they couldn’t explain. Imagining that they’d have to die such terrible death is why it’s almost impossible for them to plot any evil together within themselves.The guard that had a tablet in his hands moved forward to approach one of the guards that was leader.
