Chapter 180

Oscar Turns Out to Be the Man Emily Loved Two months after the tense meeting on the New Zealand beach, David stood by his decision. He did not hand Bella over to Emily. Instead, he shifted his entire focus to hunting Maximillian and destroying the Hydra, using every piece of information he had and every connection Oscar had left behind. David was determined to end this cycle of violence, even if it meant fighting Emily. That morning, while David was training his team at the secret base in New Zealand, he received a mysterious package. Inside was a luxurious wedding invitation. David saw the bride’s name: Emily Thorne. The groom’s name was… blank. The wedding location was listed as an old church in Rome, Italy, in two weeks’ time. David showed the invitation to Olivia. “Emily is getting married.” Olivia, who had now recovered more of her memories, though the emotional scars remained, frowned. “Do you think it’s a trap?” “Possibly,” Da

Chapter 181

Emily’s Explanation David, Olivia, and Daniel left the church in Rome with heavy hearts. David felt like he had been struck by lightning. Oscar was alive, yet amnesia had taken all his memories of them, handing him over to an alien peace with Emily. Olivia could only cry, feeling a double grief over losing Oscar, now as a brother who didn’t recognise his sister. Daniel, confused, kept asking why Uncle Oscar didn't greet him. That evening, at a secluded cafe in Rome, David met Emily alone. He needed answers. He needed to understand. “Why didn’t you tell me?” David asked, his voice filled with pain. Emily sipped her coffee, her eyes meeting David’s with a gaze mixed with regret and resolve. “I know this hurts, David. But I couldn’t. I promised Oscar I wouldn’t tell you until he himself was ready, or until we defeated Maximillian.” “But why Oscar?” David asked. “Why is he with you?” Emily sighed, the painful old story beginnin

Chapter 182

We Are Returning to Indonesia After Emily and Oscar departed for Switzerland, David spent the next few days in Rome, intensively analysing the flash drive Emily had provided. The information within was incredibly detailed and lethal—the Hydra's internal structure, Maximillian’s headquarters locations, their financial network, and the names of key individuals involved. Maximillian was indeed the mastermind behind many Hydra operations, using the “Thorne” name as a cover for some of his activities. David, with the help of Arthur Vance and Bima, began formulating a strategy. This war would be the biggest and most personal fight he had ever faced. He would strike the Hydra across all lines, ensuring nothing was left. However, before launching a full-scale operation, David knew he needed to ensure his family was truly safe. One afternoon, David sat on their hotel balcony, looking out at the bustling city of Rome. Olivia sat beside him, hold

Chapter 183

Oscar’s Medical Care David held her close, his eyes scanning the horizon for unseen threats. “It won’t touch you, Liv. I promise. This time, I’m not running from the darkness; I’m bringing the light.” He didn't share the full extent of the Hydra's reach, nor the complex, painful history involving Emily and Oscar. He protected her from the heavy details, focusing only on the imminent threat of Maximillian. His primary target was Dubai. The meeting was a high-risk, high-reward opportunity. Maximillian would be surrounded by the Hydra’s leadership, but he would also be away from his heavily fortified Jakarta headquarters. David decided on a surgical, kinetic operation—not a frontal assault, but an assassination disguised as a hostile takeover gone wrong. He called Arthur in Rome. “The Dubai operation is a go, Arthur. Utilise the old Shadow Network protocol. Minimal footprint, maximum impact. I want Maximillian neutrali

Chapter 184

A Mysterious Enemy Emerges David’s operation against Maximillian was swift and brutal. Utilising the intelligence from Emily, David, Arthur, and Bima launched a coordinated attack that crippled the Hydra network worldwide. The meeting in Dubai became a deadly trap for Maximillian. David gave him no chance to escape, no negotiation, no mercy. Maximillian, the purveyor of suffering, finally met his end at David’s hands. Emily and Oscar, watching from afar in Switzerland, received the news with mixed emotions—Emily with cold relief, Oscar, in his amnesia, only feeling the quiet peace by Emily’s side. Bella, under Emily’s supervision, was taken to a secret isolation facility. Not for physical torture, but to live in total isolation, without contact with the outside world, forever. A life without death, but also without living. David knew it was a horrifying price, but he was forced to accept Emily's decision for the sake of eliminating Maximillian.

Chapter 186

The Identity of the Secret Enemy Robert turned, his cold, sharp eyes looking straight at David. There was a faint smile on his lips, the smile of an unsurprised manipulator. “I knew you would come, David,” Robert said, his voice calm, devoid of fear. “I just didn’t expect it this quickly. And I didn’t expect Emily to betray me.” Emily, who had just entered the room, looked at Robert with tearful eyes. “You killed my father, Max! You manipulated me! You used Oscar!” “I did what I had to do, Emily,” Robert replied, without emotion. “I built an empire. I am The Architect. And all of you were pawns in my chess game.” Robert slowly rose from his chair, his hands remaining on the desk. David held him at gunpoint. “You will pay for everything you’ve done, Robert,” David said, his voice trembling with rage. Robert smiled, a ter

Chapter 187

Daniel’s Birthday Party David did not make a decision then and there in the old Jakarta warehouse. He returned to New Zealand, leaving strict instructions with Bima to keep Bella under the tightest medical supervision, while continuing to monitor Maximillian’s movements. David could not simply hand Bella over to Emily. Although Bella’s betrayal devastated David, he could not allow anyone to be tortured. David arrived in New Zealand two days before Daniel’s ninth birthday. On the island, David and Olivia arranged a small party on the beach, a celebration full of happiness and laughter, far from the shadow of Maximillian and the dark intrigues of Jakarta. As the sun began to set, painting the sky with gold and pink hues, David, Olivia, and Daniel sat at a long dining table decorated with candles, surrounded by Arthur Vance and a few trusted security team members. It was the moment of peace David craved. In the midst of the warm atmosphere, a sma

Chapter 188

Father David is Still Alive The deafening sound of the alarm filled the bunker, followed by the sound of steel doors closing, locking David and his team inside. Robert, The Architect, smiled coldly, enjoying the panic that was beginning to engulf the room. “A good trap, Robert,” David growled, his weapon still aimed at Robert. “But this won’t stop me.” “Oh, it will stop you, David,” Robert countered, his hand now moving slowly towards a hidden control panel. “I’ve been waiting for you. Every step you’ve taken, every decision you’ve made, has been anticipated.” Bima and his team immediately moved, searching for an exit or a way to disable the lock system. Emily, frozen at the sight of her brother’s betrayal, staggered backwards. “You can’t just kill me, David,” Robert continued, his eyes meeting David’s with a provocative gaze. “I have one last ace up my sleeve. An ace that will change everything.” Robert pressed a button on

Chapter 189

Protect Olivia and DanielDavid’s surrender in the Swiss bunker was not the end of the war; it was a painful tactical manoeuvre. David's hands were tied by his father's fate, who was now Robert's primary hostage. Robert, The Architect, savoured this victory with the pride of a puppet master who had moved the final pawn.“Very wise, David,” Robert said, smiling cynically while picking up the assault rifle David had dropped. “You are always predictable when it comes to family.”Robert immediately ordered his men to secure David and his team. Bima and his agents were disarmed and tied up, but Robert did not harm them. David knew the reason: Robert needed Bima and David’s other agents to continue operating the Sterling Corporation’s network and assets.Emily, still shaken, approached Robert. “Max… Robert. You must release David. This has gone too far. He is my fiancé! He saved me!”Robert looked at Emily with a cold stare David had never seen before. “Emily, you are

Chapter 190

The Siege of Sanur Beach, BaliNews of David's capture in Switzerland reached Arthur Vance and Olivia almost simultaneously, reinforced by Bima's second emergency code: Siege, Bali. Although David had ordered the evacuation to Beta Base, Robert proved to be much faster and more ruthless than David had anticipated. Robert did not just hold David captive; he used Bali as bait, targeting Olivia and Daniel immediately after David’s surrender.Olivia’s swift decision to act saved their lives. Exactly two hours after David's jet took off from the private runway in Bali, the clear Sanur sky was suddenly torn by the sound of combat helicopters. Not one, but three units, flying low towards David's beachfront villa.Inside the jet carrying Olivia and Daniel away, Arthur Vance, coordinating remotely, immediately contacted Olivia. "Olivia, Robert is serious. He sent an attack team. The target is the villa. We must ensure he believes you and Daniel are still there!""I figured as
