Chapter 14 - the visit
The dilapidated old apartment complex in the South of the city appeared rundown, a stark contrast to the luxury of the Blackwell empire. The pitch-black Rolls-Royce supercar screeched to a halt in front of the building, attracting everyone's attention.
Caleb stepped out of the car, wearing a simple gray suit yet still exuding an intimidating authority. He signaled his bodyguards to wait outside, walking up the cramped and musty cement stairs by himself.
He knocked on the door of apartment 4B. The door cracked open, and Marisol appeared with a tired expression. Upon seeing the powerful billionaire standing at her door, she was stunned, hastily taking a step back in panic.
"Mr. Blackwell... what are you doing here?" Marisol was flustered, trying to hide the mess in the cramped apartment. She thought he came to demand compensation for the billion-dollar wedding cake that was destroyed last night.
"May I come in?" Caleb asked, his voice unexpectedly deep, warm, and polite. Marisol hastily nodded, inviting him inside. Little Daisy was sitting at a small table drawing a picture, looking up with large, round eyes.
