News of the affair scandal and the alleged diversion of Cole Industries’ research funds had dominated every national television station and social media timeline since morning.Inside her chaotic luxury penthouse, Vivian paced back and forth, breathing heavily in frustration. She scrolled through her phone, which was flooded with thousands of hateful comments and contract cancellations from various well-known brands.“Jason, you have to do something!” Vivian shouted as she slammed her phone onto the leather sofa. The man standing before her had his back turned toward the floor-to-ceiling glass window, staring sharply at the rows of skyscrapers with his jaw clenched tightly. “Reporters are gathering outside the apartment. All my endorsement contracts have been terminated. Why are you just standing there doing nothing?!”Jason turned around, his eyes filled with a sharp, furious glare. “Can you shut up, Vivian?!” he roared in a deep voice that echoed through the room. “Because of that s

Five days later. The sidewalk along Central Avenue was crowded with pedestrians and the rumble of public transportation in the afternoon. Alice stepped out of a café after calming herself following the court’s interim ruling. The cold wind pierced through to her skin beneath her thick coat, but a sense of relief and warmth lingered in her chest. Her steps suddenly came to a halt when a rough grip seized her wrist. “Alice, stop!” A baritone voice mixed with heavy breathing and desperation echoed from behind her. Alice turned around in shock. Jason stood there with disheveled hair, his eyes red from the effects of alcohol, and his suit rumpled. He was a far cry from the cold CEO image he had always maintained. “Let go of me, Jason!” Alice snapped as she forcefully yanked her hand away. “Just listen to me for a moment!” Jason shouted, stepping forward with an intimidating aura. “You destroyed everything, Alice. You froze my accounts and had me removed from my position. Do you know

That morning, the sunlight over NorthVale filtered faintly through the gaps in the curtains of Alice’s apartment. The cup of herbal tea in her hand was still steaming when the doorbell rang. Alice walked over to open the door and found Clara standing there anxiously. She was carrying a handbag and a thin stack of documents in her arms. “Alice!” Clara immediately stepped inside and hugged her friend tightly before taking off her thick coat. “I’ve been reading the news all night. What was the actual outcome of the hearing? Did the ruling really go in your favor?” Alice gave a faint smile and nodded as she invited Clara to sit on the living room sofa. “The judge issued an interim ruling. The hearing will continue next week. All of Jason’s personal accounts, property assets registered under his name, and even his share dividends in Cole Industries have officially been frozen. The Board of Directors has even suspended him from his position as CEO.” “That’s incredible,” Clara whisper

One month later.The doorbell rang loudly several times, but the homeowner still did not come to open the door. Finally, Taylor reluctantly pulled out his phone.The first call went unanswered. Taylor began to lose his temper. “Sh*t! Where is he?!”Stone stood nearby with his arms folded across his chest, leaning against a pillar with a crooked smile on his face. The smile seemed to mock Taylor.“Do I really have to take matters into my own hands?” Stone straightened up and walked toward Taylor.Just as Taylor was about to place the flat device against his ear, Stone quickly stopped him.“Don’t waste any more time. We’ve already been here for almost thirty minutes,” Stone said.The man promptly stepped to the right and jumped over the house’s fence. Apparently, Stone already knew what he needed to do.“Jade!” he shouted loudly.Not long after, the front door opened, and Jade appeared behind it. He looked at Taylor before shifting his gaze to Stone, who was walking toward Taylor.Stone

A massive power outage swept across NorthVale like a chain of falling dominoes. From the heights of the skyscrapers, the city that had once been filled with magnificent lights was suddenly plunged into pitch-black darkness. Emergency sirens echoed through the rain-soaked night air, mixing with the thunderous crashes of car accidents on the main roads and the heartbreaking screams of hysterical civilians coming from various directions.On the highway at the city border where the military cargo truck had been destroyed, the military defense had completely collapsed. The two mutated specimens that had killed Stone and Taylor were no longer staying in place. The scent of warm blood from the civilian settlements spread through the air, triggering their hunting instincts and drawing them through the darkness toward the heart of the city.Meanwhile, far away at the edge of NorthVale, Jason Cole’s secondary laboratory had become terrifying. The facility, which had yet to be discovered by the
