Chapter 72: Playing Along with the DrugEthan held his breath, staring fixedly at Aria’s hands. The heavy silver spoon was still resting between her fingers, dripping golden chicken broth back into the ceramic bowl. Every second felt like an hour."Is something wrong with the soup, Aria?" Ethan asked, his voice shaking just a little bit. He quickly cleared his throat to hide the fear in his voice. "You stopped eating."Aria looked up at him, her eyes clear and untroubled. Inside her mind, the System interface had already finished breaking down the liquid in her stomach, turning the chemical sedative into harmless water before it could even enter her bloodstream. But Ethan did not need to know that. He needed to believe his stupid plan was working."No, Ethan. It's really good," Aria said softly. Her voice sounded a little tired, just enough to make him lean in. "It's just... I suddenly feel very heavy."Ethan took a fast step closer to the table, his hands gripping the back of her woo

Chapter 74: The Failed HeistEthan froze. His heart slammed against his ribs like a trapped bird, and cold sweat instantly burst out across his forehead. He slowly turned his head, his hands shaking so violently that he nearly knocked the laptop off the table.Aria was still sitting in the chair. Her eyes were closed, her head tilted slightly to the side, and her chest rose and fell in slow, even breaths. She looked completely unconscious.Ethan swallowed hard, his throat dry and burning. "Aria?" he whispered, his voice cracking. "Did you say something?"Silence filled the room, broken only by the hum of the laptop fan."I'm going crazy," Ethan muttered to himself, wiping his forehead with the back of his hand. He let out a shaky breath and turned back to the screen. "It's just the stress. I'm hearing things. I just need to get this money."He looked back down at the screen. The large red warning text was still blinking rhythmically, turning the dark dining room into a pool of crimson

Chapter 76The lead officer did not smile. His face grew even harder as he looked at Ethan with open disgust. He turned back to Aria, his voice softening into a gentle, respectful tone. In his twenty years on the force, he had seen this exact kind of dynamic dozens of times—a desperate, controlling husband trying to take advantage of his wife behind closed doors, and a quiet, soft-spoken woman trying to cover it up to avoid a public scene."Ma'am," the officer said gently. "Even if you choose not to file criminal charges for attempted grand theft tonight, we cannot simply ignore an emergency security dispatch of this level. If he is pressuring you for money or taking advantage of you while you are unwell, you have the full right to put that on official record."Aria looked up at the officer. Her eyes looked shiny, as if she were holding back tears of deep emotional pain. She bit her lower lip, glancing at Ethan for half a second before turning her head away again. She played the part

Chapter 78"It's a five-stage automated system, Miss Aria," the engineer said, pointing to each section as he talked. "Stage one pulls the raw water up through stainless steel intake screens to catch grit and sand. Stage two passes the water through heavy-duty industrial carbon beds to strip out any minerals or heavy metals. Stage three runs it through high-pressure reverse osmosis membranes.""And stage four and five?" Aria asked, tracing her fingers along the thick copper pipes leading into the storage tanks."Stage four uses ultraviolet light chambers to destroy every known bacteria, virus, or biological spore instantly," he replied, his voice full of pride. "Stage five balances the mineral content and routes the clean water directly into your ten underground storage vaults. The entire process is completely hands-free. You don't need a crew in here to turn valves or check switches. The System monitors flow rate, pipe pressure, and water purity every second."Aria looked up at the g

Chapter 80Anna let out a bitter, quiet laugh. "Because Ethan was obsessed with her. He spent months installing keyloggers, copying hard drives, and tracing her personal bank transfers. He thought he was being clever, but he left all his files on his secondary server. Before the police locked down his office, I made a complete ghost copy of his drive." She lied"A ghost copy," Kane repeated."Yes," Anna said, feeling a rush of sudden leverage warm her cold blood. She leaned back against the red vinyl booth, her confidence returning bit by bit. "I have exact land registry numbers, shipping manifests, and bank routing details. I know about her purchases in the northern sector."On the other end of the line, Kane set his glass down on a hard wooden surface with a soft clack."And why do you think she is doing that, Miss Anna?" Kane asked, his voice steady and dangerously quiet."I don't care what she's doing!" Anna spat, her voice trembling with hidden rage and exhaustion. All I care ab
