Chapter 91

"Danny, what are you doing?" Gwendolyn's voice rose in alarm. She tried to stop Dante, but the words had already slipped free.The woman who had been drowning in despair suddenly rushed toward him, eyes shining with desperate hope. "If you really know how to cure me, I'll do whatever you ask.""The moment I first saw you, I could tell," Dante said evenly. "Your condition is hereditary, isn't it?""Yes. It's genetic. My grandfather had it, and now I do too."That hereditary illness had tormented Olivia for years. She had sought out the best doctors, endured three corneal transplants, and each time the disease returned within a year. After so many failures, her private physician had warned that another operation would only make the relapses come faster."Your problem isn't with your eyes," Dante explained. "It lies in the nerves behind them."He had seen similar cases while studying medicine under Athos and gained some insight, though even so he lacked full confidence in a cure.N

Chapter 92

The injured man and the others tried to rush forward, but Tobias' men forced them to the ground with ease."Mr. Deuxor, our Drakoness has never treated you poorly. Don't you think this is shameless?" the injured man growled."You think you have the right to speak here? Slap him!"One of Tobias' men stepped up without hesitation, swung his hand, and struck the injured man across the face. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth."Tobias, you bastard," Olivia spat, struggling to her feet. "I am still an heiress of the Drakon family. Even if I've lost power, how dare you lay hands on me?""I call you 'Drakoness' only because I felt like showing you some respect," Tobias said. "You know exactly what kind of man the Chairman is. In the Drakon family, strength is everything. You've lost your value, and now you're nothing."What if I kill you? The Drakon family still has over a dozen successors. You're not worth a damn."He drove his fist into Olivia's stomach, then kicked her spra

Chapter 93

Tobias fell silent. In truth, silence was his only choice.Why? Because in the end, no matter how high his standing in the Drakon family, Tiana would never risk the family's entire business interests for him by openly challenging the mighty Beaumont conglomerate.Business people remained business people. When it came to family affairs, it was not only subordinates like him who could be discarded at will, even direct heirs could be abandoned if necessary. Olivia had already proven that.Watching Tobias shrink into himself, Gwendolyn gave a cold laugh and snapped, "Well? Get lost."Startled as if doused in cold water, Tobias no longer dared to make threats. He scrambled up and fled in panic.Dante crouched in front of Olivia, smirking. "Are you alright?" "I'm fine."Yet he could see she wasn't fine at all. This fiercely proud, iron-willed woman resembled Gwendolyn too closely. They were cut from the same cloth.With women like them, Dante knew that too much concern would only in

Chapter 94

Most of the villas in the district stood unfinished, undecorated, and still without residents.The injured man himself came to escort Dante. The hostility he once carried was gone, replaced by gratitude. Dante had been willing, despite past grudges, to risk Tiana's wrath for Olivia's sake, and that alone earned the man's respect.On the way to see Olivia, the man—never much of a talker—forced out small scraps of conversation. He spoke of how the Drakon family owned every villa, how none had been sold, how they were waiting to open the development.Dante showed no interest. He lengthened his stride instead.Before long, the man pushed open a door with one hand and called softly to the woman in the living room. "Drakoness, I've brought him.""Good. You may go." Olivia rose, her gaze settling on Dante with a trace of gratitude. She could easily imagine the weight of the pressure he carried simply by choosing to help her."Mauro, you too. Please step outside. I don't want anyone watc

Chapter 95

Women were sharp-tongued but soft-hearted, the perfect embodiment of saying one thing and meaning another. That old saying could not have been truer.Back at home, Dante lay in bed, utterly drained from whatever method he had used on Olivia. His face was as pale as paper.Gwendolyn entered with a steaming bowl, her expression still touched with coldness. "Get up and drink some chicken soup."Dante struggled to sit, but when he tried to take the bowl, he discovered he lacked the strength to lift his arm.Gwendolyn's eyes flickered with both heartache and anger. "I'll feed you. Open your mouth."Dante grinned foolishly and obeyed, sipping the soup she spooned to him. It was her way of showing she cared."Enough. Rest well." Gwendolyn rose to leave."Gwen, don't go. Sit down. Let's talk," Dante said."What's there to talk about? You've got too much energy, don't you? Did you use that method to cure her?"Dante understood at once what she meant."So you did use it. You're insane!

Chapter 96

Inside the executive office of the Drakons' entertainment empire, Tiana regarded the bruised and battered Tobias with a mocking smile. "You're saying Dante can cure Olivia's eyes?""That's what the brat claims," Tobias replied coldly."This illness runs in our family. My late grandfather scoured the world for the most renowned doctors, and not even they could cure it. Yet you expect me to believe that some brat named Dante can?" Her tone dripped with contempt.It was not arrogance but certainty, for she knew such a thing was impossible.Tobias hesitated. "But what if? What if that brat really does have a way? I'm afraid Olivia—""You're just sulking because Dante beat you up, aren't you?" Tiana cut him off, seeing straight through him.Tobias stiffened. "I'm only thinking of your best interests.""What do you want to do?" she asked."End it once and for all." Tobias drew his thumb across his throat."And who exactly do you plan to 'finish'?" Tiana arched a brow."Dante, that

Chapter 97

Late at night, torrential rain hammered the city. Several cautious figures stepped out of a black Land Rover parked in the Drakon family's private villa district."Drakoness, Tiana's people will find this place soon. The board won't interfere either." The scarred man wiped the rain from his face, his voice tight with strain. "For your safety, we must leave."Though her eyes were veiled, fury and despair still burned within them. "In such a vast city, there's nowhere left for me. How ironic, Olivia.""As long as you live, there's hope. The board recognizes your ability. Once your sight recovers, Tiana won't dare touch you again.""Where are you taking me?" Olivia asked."The Beaumont family," the man replied.Her voice flared with anger. "Why would you take me there? Do you want me to be someone's laughingstock?""Drakoness, we have no other choice," the man said bitterly.He suddenly dropped to his knees in the rain. "Blame me for being useless. Against Tiana, none of us stood

Chapter 98

A tan-skinned foreign mercenary with a scarred face took a long drag on his cigarette, watching the farcical scene unfold."Stupid Hrestians," he sneered. "A trick like this could fool children, but I'd wager our real target is in the second car."He shifted his gaze to a burly man in a black raincoat sitting nearby. The man raised his head slowly, his hawk-like eyes glinting. His voice came out low and hoarse. "Don't let anyone escape. Everyone in both cars—I want them all."…At 3:52 a.m., pounding on the door jolted Dante awake. His eyes snapped open, and he stumbled to the door."What is it, Mauro?" He opened it to find the young man pale and tense."Something's happened. Quick, come to the living room."Dante froze for a heartbeat, then rushed out without bothering to grab a shirt. When he saw who stood surrounded by the Beaumonts in the living room, his breath caught."Mr. Blackwood, you came."It was Drake. He was drenched in blood. His right arm had been torn off by br

Chapter 99

The Land Rover tore through the curtain of rain, swerving wildly as it sped toward the outskirts of Audraco. A sharp bang rang out—one of the tires had blown. The car spun out of control, slamming into the guardrail.Olivia felt the world tilt beneath her. Before she could process what had happened, brute force ripped the twisted car door off. A massive hand clamped around her throat and hurled her to the ground.It was the tan-skinned mercenary, Bear."Well now, a real beauty, huh? Boss, come have a look," he said while exhaling smoke.Hyena, the man in the raincoat, stepped forward in waterproof boots, towering over her. His hawk-like eyes glinted coldly, and a cruel smile tugged at his lips."You're Olivia?""Who are you?" Olivia tried to rise, but the mercenary's boot pressed her head back into the ground."Who we are doesn't matter. What matters is that you're our prey now.""Then you must be working for Tiana. How much did she pay you? I'll give you ten times that.""Tem

"You've got guts, kid. How the hell did you chase us all the way here?" Bear twirled his knife in his hand, striding toward Dante with a swagger in each step.Dante said nothing. His eyes swept past the mercenary, coldly fixed on the men behind. "Where's the person you took?""She's already been delivered to the client. Alive or dead, that's not my concern." Bear smirked, raising a brow. "You've got balls, but do you even know who we are?"He made a throat-slitting gesture, grinning cruelly.Dante exhaled slowly. As long as Olivia was still alive, sneaking out against Gwendolyn's orders still had meaning.Without a glance at him, Dante strode past Bear."Huh?" Bear froze. "Are you ignoring me?"Dante chuckled. "You're already a dead man. Why shouldn't I?" Bear's brow furrowed. "You wanna die? Fine, I'll help!"His knife flashed through the rain as he lunged and aimed straight for Dante's heart.Dante scoffed and turned his back again, confident that behind him was safe.A s
