Chapter 490 Chapter 490: Settling gracefully onto the sofa, Irene feigned modesty. “The credit should all go to Jason. I just gave birth to him—it’s hardly an achievement p> “Nonsense, Irene. Raising such an exceptional son is no small feat. You’ve made a huge contribution to the family p> “Indeed!
Chapter 489 Chapter 489: Trinity shook her head. No. Losing Jason was not an option. What if Cole stayed distant forever, and Jason was gone too? She had to hold on to at least one of them, no matter what. The idea of both men falling for others was a
Chapter 488 Chapter 488: No one answered. The room was silent. Irene strolled in, pretending to be clueless. “Why’s everyone so tense? Did something happen p> Her timing gave Carter an opening. “Irene, I heard Jason was the hero against the Phantom Mercenaries p> Irene lit up. “You’re absolutely right,
Chapter 487 Chapter 487: Elliana’s firm stance today caught Carter completely off guard. But Elliana didn’t budge. Cool as ever, she fired back, “Carter, are you saying the Evans family no longer values order and respect? If that’s the case, can I just accuse you of hiring the Phantom Mercenaries
Chapter 486 Chapter 486: While Derek seethed, Elliana remained composed. Her voice was steady, with a touch of mockery. “Whatever you plan to do later is your business. But today, with no proof, you’ve insulted, slandered, and threatened me. That alone deserves punishment—according to the family code p> She didn’t
Chapter 485 Chapter 485: Elliana’s voice dropped, low and precise. “Tell me, Derek—who fed you that story?” The room stilled. Derek blinked, caught off guard. He floundered for a reply. Only Cole’s most trusted allies had accompanied him to Podgend—Jason, his elite team, and a few handpicked loyalists. No leaks.
Chapter 484 Chapter 484: The moment they got close, Carter’s booming voice cut through the air, dripping with scorn. “I hear Cole nearly got himself killed all because of that worthless and ugly wife of his. If we care about the Evans family’s future, we need to handle her once
Chapter 483 Chapter 483: A heavy sigh escaped Ruben. “If I’m honest, yes. Carter’s my little brother. How am I supposed to be ruthless with him? He’s always been a handful ever since we were kids. It’s impossible not to be bothered.” Bitterness crept into his smile. “Elliana, would you
Chapter 482 Chapter 482: Ruben proceeded to explain the burden Cole carried—his status as a carrier of Psychephrenia, a genetic condition so rare that most medical professionals had never encountered it. When Ruben finished his explanation, his voice grew heavy. “Cole must have sensed an episode approaching like a gathering
Chapter 481 Chapter 481: Myles adjusted his glasses, his hands trembling slightly as he struggled to find the right words. “Sorry, but I cannot reveal that information p> Elliana sprang from her chair, fury radiating from every part of her being. During the entire agonizing journey from Podgend to Ublento,
Chapter 480 Chapter 480: Elliana, ever perceptive, said nothing of the concern she sensed. Instead, she smiled gently. “I’m gonna check on Cole.” With grace, she turned and headed upstairs. Cole’s room remained under the watchful eyes of Paulina and Myles, while his doctor, Charlie, stood ready nearby. Elliana swept
Chapter 479 Chapter 479: Elliana felt it—the sincerity radiating from him like sunlight—and it melted away any remnants of the past. She reached up and gave his shiny head a gentle pat, grinning. “Okay, tough guy, enough with the waterworks. See? I’m back in one piece p> Jeff sniffled and
Chapter 478 Chapter 478: Meanwhile, Trinity was quietly thrilled at the notion that Elliana might be in danger. Her glee bubbled up so strongly that she couldn’t control her expression—her lips lifted into a visible smile. A chill abruptly crawled down her spine as she turned and caught Lance’s piercing
Chapter 477 Chapter 477: Ruben’s anxiety got the best of him. “Where’s Jason? Somebody find Jason, now p> However, no one knew where Jason had gone. Even Bertram, his father, couldn’t reach him by phone. Ruben’s frustration boiled over. “Jason knows about all this chaos, yet he didn’t come straight
Chapter 476 Chapter 476: Ruben had cleared the room, sending the others downstairs. Only Bertram, Emmanuel, and Myles remained by Cole’s bedside. Turning to Myles, Ruben asked, his voice low and solemn, “Myles, what in God’s name happened p> Myles didn’t flinch. He met Ruben’s gaze and, with a steady
Chapter 475 Chapter 475: But Jason’s gaze was icebound. Once his mind settled on a choice, no force could unmake it. “Lanny, any last words?” he asked flatly. Lanny’s mouth moved—open, close, open again—but no sound came. He’d never once pictured death arriving like this—on his knees, in the dead
Chapter 474 Chapter 474: “He carries the seeds of madness!” Irene declared with venomous triumph. “His mother suffers from a genetic curse called psychephrenia, which breeds mental chaos, and Cole inherits this poisoned legacy. When he loses control, the destruction becomes catastrophic p> Pausing, she added, “Twenty-four years ago, I
Chapter 473 Chapter 473: Clutching this unexpected lifeline, Lanny fumbled for his phone with shaking hands and dialed Irene for a video call. Elsewhere, anxiety consumed Irene as she waited for any updates on the situation. News of Cole’s encounter with the Phantom Mercenaries operatives in Podgend had rippled through
Chapter 472 Chapter 472: Jason’s expression shifted to one of cold calculation. He smiled, a predator’s grin. He drew the pistol from his waist and pressed its cold muzzle against Lanny’s forehead. Lanny’s words died in his throat as sweat ran down his spine like melting ice. Jason’s voice remained
Chapter 471 Chapter 471: “Mr. Evans, what drove you back to this cursed place p> Jason lifted his gaze to the moon-drunk sky and released a breath that carried the weight of unfinished business. “There was something I should’ve handled last night, but Cole’s condition couldn’t wait, so I put
