Chapter 17 - the absolute verdict
adrien didn't execute silas in the penthouse. death was far too easy for a man who had dared to threaten the security of his newly reclaimed family. he wanted to send an absolute, terrifying message to the entire global underworld.
"strip this place," adrien ordered his loyal men, his voice devoid of any human empathy. "take every hard drive, every dollar, and every piece of operational intel. leave them absolutely nothing."

"you will spend the rest of your miserable life rotting in a maximum-security cell, constantly looking over your shoulder for the enemies you just exposed."
