All Chapters of A Destiny Written in Blood: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

The place Rowena usually met Roy was an internet café in Flatstone.According to Roy, this internet café was protected by Rowena's lover and was one of her regular hangouts.Wearing a hat low over his face, Dominic quietly slipped inside.The air inside was filthy. It reeked of cigarette smoke mixed with the stink of sweaty feet.This place operated without a business license and was tucked away in a remote corner. The people who came here were mostly small-time thugs or students skipping school.As Dominic walked through, all he saw were punks with brightly dyed hair and students with glasses and backpacks.Most of them were glued to their screens, either grinding old-school RPGs or playing first-person shooters, completely absorbed.Watching them, Dominic felt a wave of emotion.Once, he had been just like them, coming to places like this with friends to game and laugh.Now, he was a fugitive with nowhere to go. He was hiding behind a mask and stuck in the shadows, fighting

Dominic quietly planned everything out in his head. It took him more than an hour to fully lock down the plan.Once everything was clear, Dominic finally let out a breath. He finally had a real chance at revenge.After that, Dominic stayed hidden in the weeds for another two hours. By a little after 5 p.m., the sky began to darken.Dominic slipped into a nearby rural town and took a few pieces of clothing from a clothesline outside someone's house.After changing, he used the fading light to head back into Flatstone along the side roads.Once inside the city, Dominic noticed a clear increase in patrol cars.It looked like law enforcement had already confirmed his identity and had stepped up the search again.Dominic didn't go straight to Bruno's internet café. Instead, he found a barbershop first.Using the excuse of washing his hair, Dominic quietly collected some loose hair clippings from the floor.After leaving the barbershop, he found a deserted spot and roughly stuck the

"Seven witnesses, at least four grand each. That alone was about 28 grand," Rowena stated."Then there were all the middlemen to grease. Everything should cost about 140 thousand dollars."If I had that kind of money, do you really think I'd still be working hostess gigs or living out of that dump of an internet café?"Dominic frowned."Then who framed me?"Rowena let out a sigh."I really think you should stop asking that. Even if you find out who did this to you, there's nothing you can do about him."You barely managed to escape. If you ask me, you should run somewhere far away and start over."If you keep digging, you're gonna get yourself killed."Dominic let out a cold laugh."Do you really think I still care about my life? "My parents are dead. My life is completely ruined. Even if I live, what's the point?"The only reason I'm still breathing is to get revenge."Rowena looked at him for a long moment, then sighed."If that's how you feel, then I'll tell you."Th

Dominic's face turned cold again as he realized how vicious Nicholas really was.Rowena continued, "Once your parents got their hands on the first autopsy report, Nicholas had them killed."And on top of that, he used his connections to spread the story that they stole the autopsy report, just to muddy the waters."Dominic slammed his fist into the stone wall beside him. His whole body shook with rage."I'll never let him get away with this!"Rowena spoke softly, "We were classmates once. Let me give you some advice. "Nicholas isn't someone you can deal with. You… should leave Flatstone."Dominic clenched his teeth. "I don't even care about my life anymore. You think I'm scared of him?"Rowena sighed. "I know you're not afraid of dying. But do you know how many bodyguards Nicholas has around him now?"Dominic frowned. "Bodyguards?"Rowena nodded. "Yeah. Ever since word got out that you escaped and didn't die, his father hired eight bodyguards for him."Half of them graduate

Only after Dominic was completely drained did he finally stop. He collapsed onto the ground, gasping for air.He looked around. There was no one behind him anymore.He was now in the western outskirts of Flatstone, deep inside a patch of woods.Still panting, Dominic moved deeper into the trees to hide.But he didn't dare stay there for long.After the failed attempt on Nicholas, not only would Nicholas's men be hunting him down, but the police would definitely be searching for him, too.So after resting for just a few minutes, Dominic quietly slipped out in another direction and headed back toward the city.Not long after he left, headlights began flashing behind him.A large number of enforcement officers arrived and started searching the area.The two bodyguards had run out of stamina about ten minutes earlier. All they could give was a rough direction Dominic had fled in.The officers could only search along that path.Meanwhile, Dominic had already gone in a completely
