The Don’s Dangerous Addiction Chapter 192 The Blank Card
Evening descended on Sunset City without warning, the light fading so quietly that Avery barely noticed the transition from gold to grey.Evan's car pulled up slowly in front of the apartment building, the tires crunching softly against the worn asphalt. Avery pushed open the door and stepped out, a carefully wrapped insulated pastry box in her hand.She had made a detour before leaving Obsidian City, driving across town to the dessert shop Dorothea loved most, the one with the long queue that snaked around the block every afternoon. She had waited in line for nearly an hour, holding her place against the impatient crowd, just to buy a cream cake that had survived the journey intact. The box was still cool to the touch, the condensation beading on its surface proof that the cold pack had held.

The sunlight in Sunset City was thinner than in Obsidian City. Around three in the afternoon, the light filtered through the tinted glass and spread across the arrival hall floor in a warm, pale glow.When Avery walked out of the exit, she spotted Evan immediately among the crowd waiting at the pick-up area. He was leaning against a pillar, wearing a dark grey coat with no tie, a half-empty cup of coffee in his hand. He wasn't scanning the crowd. He just stood there, the kind of man who clearly wasn't in a hurry.She walked up to him. Evan looked up, set his coffee cup on the nearest trash bin, and straightened."The flight was easy to track. Obsidian City to Sunset City, only one flight this afternoon. I guessed right."
The Don’s Dangerous Addiction Chapter 190 The Secret Behind Our Mother
Buzz—Buzz—The vibration cut through the silence of the study like a blade. Dominic turned his head slightly, his hand finding the private communicator on the edge of the console with unerring precision. He pressed the receive button without hesitation.Avery pulled out her own phone, the cold glow of the screen illuminating her face in the dim room. She saw Drake's message immediately and opened it without a second thought.The communicator crackled with static before Drake's voice came through, slightly distorted but sharp and urgent. "Boss, we've confirmed Wenger's whereabouts in Sunset City. He was staying at a small hotel on the outskirts, but he checked out two hours ago. We searched the room. Found something hidden in the
The Don’s Dangerous Addiction Chapter 189 His Mother
The vehicle had been silent for about three minutes. The only sound was the low hum of the engine and the occasional crackle of gravel under the tires.Drake glanced down at the chamber's readings every few seconds, his fingers resting on the edge without moving. His posture was alert, ready to react at the first sign of trouble. When the tires rolled over the seams in the road, the chamber stayed locked in place. The mounts held firm, the base connectors intact.Avery leaned against the rear wall, her back pressed against the cold metal. She could feel the lateral force each time the vehicle turned, the subtle shift of momentum pushing her against the paneling. She closed her eyes and ran through the route from the private box to the rolling shutter one more time.

The red light kept flashing. Not fast. Steady, rhythmic, like something breathing.The entire auction hall had fallen into dead silence. No one spoke. Every eye was fixed on the bio-seal chamber on stage. The liquid inside was turning red, creeping upward layer by layer, like blood flowing back into a tube.Avery sat in the private box, her fingers pressed flat against her knees. She didn't even glance at Drake. Instead, she calmly calculated the distribution of security forces below. Thirteen men. Arc formation. Three crossfire points. Two elevated positions. She had memorized all of this over the past three nights. Now it lay before her like a translucent web, every line and angle burned into her memory."Don't blink." Dominic's voice came through the earpiece, steady and controlled. "He's waiting for you to make the first move."On stage, the auctioneer raised his gavel for the third time. His lips were moving, but his voice was already lost beneath th

The Obsidian City Grand Theater loomed before her—a grand facade masking the dark dealings that took place within its walls.The air was thick with expensive perfume, cigar smoke, and the cold sweat of nervous power players. Crystal chandeliers cast fractured patterns of light across the marble floors, illuminating faces that wore masks of ambition and greed. The walls were lined with dark velvet, absorbing sound and creating an almost tomb-like stillness that pressed down on every guest.Avery stood at the bottom of the entrance steps, tilting her head upward. Tonight, she wore a sharply tailored black long coat, its clean lines falling to her knees. The collar revealed a sliver of crisp white silk shirt beneath, a single silver button catching the dim light. Her hair was pinned up with precision, every strand in place. A pair of frameless silver-rimmed glasses sat on the bridge of her nose. The cold metal pressed against her temples, grounding her, keeping her

Avery arrived at the sanatorium half an hour early.She needed that extra time—not just to review the records, but to steady herself before facing Julian. The corridors smelled of antiseptic and old wood, and her footsteps echoed too loudly against the polished floor.She went straight to the nurse

The heavy wooden door clicked shut, leaving behind a faint, chilly draft from the corridor.Only after Drake had exited and the surrounding air collapsed back into a dead silence did Avery finally venture to poke her head out from beneath the heavy duvet. The flush on her cheeks hadn’t fully faded,

Morning light poured through the floor to ceiling windows and spread across the cold grey marble floor. Pale. Like an operating room light.Avery sat up, her body aching. Her eyes swept the room.No photos. No plants. No decoration at all. Grey white walls, metal trim. So empty it made her chest ti
The Don’s Dangerous Addiction Chapter 01 A Deadly Deal
Before her appointment, Avery received an anonymous card.No signature. Just one line:"Experiment 047 is waiting for you. Don't disappoint him."She turned the card over and back again. No clues.047？A number for what?She didn't know what it meant, but the feeling of being calculated in advance ma
