Chapter 377 The only reason he agreed to meet this so-called Mr. C was to find someone gullible enough to drive up God’s bid. He didn’t bother digging for more details. “Mr. C, you are Charlotte gave a small, cool smile, her voice steady and unhurried. “Who I am doesn’t
Chapter 376 “I can’t believe we’re actually up against God, the head of X Organization, for the B20 component.” Jackson’s expression finally caught up with the seriousness of the situation. In Apex, nobody messed with X Organization. Everybody was afraid of them. God, the one calling the shots for X
Chapter 375 Suddenly, she missed Anthony. She wanted to be with him, right now, no waiting. Charlotte closed her eyes, drew in a deep breath, and when she opened them again, her gaze was clear, cold, and razor-sharp. After she finished getting ready, she pulled up the group chat, Family
Chapter 374 “Idiot?” Anthony’s fingers flew over the keyboard, a gentle smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. There was a softness in his eyes that made him look almost tender. “If someone managed to get you this worked up, they must be awful. Definitely deserves a few choice
Chapter 373 If she’d just been a little braver earlier, maybe she would have confessed and things would be different now. Next time, she promised herself, if she ran into Asclepius again, she wouldn’t hesitate. She’d go for it and say how she really felt. The payment came through. That
Chapter 372 The young nurse had barely left when the manor’s owner burst into the room, shaking so hard he could barely stand. He stumbled to the bedside, eyes locked on his son’s face as color slowly returned to those pale cheeks. Then, without warning, he dropped to his knees
Chapter 371 Jackson grabbed the handle without a word, doing his best to brace himself. Adonis waved her concern away. “Relax, Charlotte. It’s nothing.” He’d driven roads like this plenty of times before. With his driving skills, a mountain road really wasn’t a big deal. Charlotte shot him a look,
Chapter 370 The phone rang a few times before Anthony finally answered. His voice was deep and smooth, but Charlotte could hear the exhaustion in it. “So you finally remembered to call me?” “I’ve just been busy with school,” Charlotte said, settling into a more comfortable position. The sound of
Chapter 369 He stood with a perfect view of the casino’s exit, ready for anything. The moment someone showed up, he’d― Before Anthony could finish the thought, the man in the hat, face hidden in shadow, spun around and pointed a gun straight at him. Anthony’s eyes narrowed. He darted
Chapter 368 Inside the private room, Jackson and Adonis flanked Charlotte, guns up, eyes sharp and cold as they stared down the guards blocking the door. “That’s it? Seriously?” Adonis let out a low, mocking laugh. He didn’t get to enjoy that feeling for long. Heavy footsteps thundered from the
Chapter 367 After he finished giving instructions, he pulled out his phone and checked Charlotte’s social media. She had accepted the transfer, but she didn’t even bother to send an emoji back. Anthony’s jaw tightened, his whole presence turning ice-cold, and his eyes went dark with something almost dangerous. He
Chapter 366 The first round was underway. The dealer placed five dice shakers on the table, turning each one to show they were empty. At Charlotte’s nod, he shook them ten times each, the sound of rattling dice filling the room. On the other side of the table, three men
Chapter 365 Adonis couldn’t help but stare in amazement as they walked. “Charlotte actually came in here by herself, trashed the Netherworld Casino, and walked away without a scratch. That’s wild.” Honestly, if it were him, he’d be lost before he even found the bar. Jackson didn’t say much, but
Chapter 364 Everyone turned to look. A tall, slender figure caught their attention. With one hand braced on a nearby vase stand, they sprang up, dodging the flying glasses and splashing wine with incredible speed and accuracy. The way they moved-smooth, confident, and so effortlessly cool-made it impossible to look
Chapter 363 “Get out,” Anthony said, his voice cold enough to make everyone tense. His staff nearly tripped over themselves trying to escape the room. Six months away, and the man was even scarier than before. As soon as the door clicked shut, Anthony rubbed his brow and reached for
Chapter 362 On the way to the casino, Charlotte lounged in her seat, looking completely at ease. Her bag was resting on her lap, and her pale, slender fingers were spinning a handgun, like she’d done it a thousand times before. The car was dead quiet. The air felt cold
Chapter 361 The numbers on the heart monitor looked bad. He’d been beaten within an inch of his life. Give it another couple days and he wouldn’t make it. The people from X Organization really were the worst. Charlotte stepped up to the bed and pressed her fingers against the
Chapter 360 The butler led the way, guiding everyone through the castle’s tight security and into a villa that was even more extravagant. As they reached the entrance, two men in black suits blocked their path. “What do you think you’re doing?” Adonis snapped, stepping between Charlotte and the guards
Chapter 359 In less than half an hour, the other side agreed to Asclepius’s terms, as long as the patient could be saved. Charlotte sat at the table, her cheek propped on her pale hand, gazing at a breakfast spread that looked almost too perfect. It made her think of
Chapter 358 Charlotte hadn’t stirred once all night. When the first rays of sunlight slipped through the sheer curtains, she woke slowly, blinking against the gentle warmth. Her first move was to check her arms. The shirt she’d clung to before falling asleep was still there, right where she’d left
