"It's been 2 years Ayesha, you still can't move on with your ex?" she broke the silence and then slammed the counter. Move on? How to do that? Why is it that every time I tried, I still come back to the beginning? "There are probably things in the world that we will never forget," I said with my bitter language and raw smile.

the camera shattered, and the screen plunged into darkness. At this moment, the ship had turned into a chaotic scene akin to a demonic revelry, and the man could only watch helplessly, without any countermeasures. He knew he had fallen into a trap. Derek had dared to toy with him so. Enraged, the man swept his arm across the sand table, sending the meticulously constructed Seven-Star Tower crashing to the ground. The thousands of pieces that made up the tower fell apart, scattering everywhere. The red liquid from within the tower flowed out, mocking his defeat.

"How are you going to destroy the tower?" "Her powers maybe," Rodrick said. "No, my power is too limited," Molly said. "They won't be able to do the amount of damage needed to destroy the tower." "How big is this tower even?" Det. Brighton asked. "It's massive. Almost twice as tall as the Burj Khalifa and with an even taller antenna on top of it that broadcasts signals to all the chasens scattered across the entire universe," Rodrick answered. "Of course." "My hands can only do so much, what we need is something that is going to completely take the tower out," Molly said.

There was no fortress anymore.

Meanwhile, there was something else happening within Enigma City. The tower's structure was still shaking, unable to handle the waves of damage against it due to its aged structure. Adrian leaned against the tower’s inner wall, desperately trying to recover his strength. His internal organs felt like they were about to burst after being struck by the emperor's relentless pressure. After coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood, his condition improved slightly. "How do you feel? The tower's about to collapse, so we need to get out of here." Mya anxiously looked at Adrian as she patted his back.

The building was falling, but the air in his lungs still tasted like ash. "F**k," he hissed, slamming his palm against the window frame. The wood splintered, a tiny sliver of oak driving into his skin. He didn't pull it out. He just watched the blood well up, a dark bead against the pale flesh. The tower’s spine snapped an hour later.

"My brother... we need to get back to Elias." "We will," Kaden said, lifting her effortlessly into his arms as he looked toward the access ladder on the far side of the room.

Now I'm a girl with no money, no support system, and no idea if the person I sacrificed everything for even wants me anymore. My phone buzzes with a text from an unknown number: Heard you're available now. Want to grab coffee sometime? Then another: Single and ready to mingle? Hit me up. And another: Don't let the haters get you down. Some of us think you're hot.
