a billionaire collapsed from a heart attack on a crowded park path, watching stranger after stranger walk past without stopping — then two five-year-old girls in worn-out shoes rushed to his side and screamed until someone finally came to help. eleven days later, believing he owed his life to two children he had never met, he asked to meet their mother… only to freeze when she entered his hospital room wearing a small silver compass that belonged to a past he thought was gone forever.

Ethan stepped out from the shadows of the shipping container with his hands raised.

He told Daniel to leave the innocent children out of this corporate war.

Daniel laughed, a sharp and cruel sound that echoed across the dark water.

He confessed that he had personally swapped Ethan’s heart medication to trigger the fatal attack in the park.

Daniel had planned to take over the entire empire the moment Ethan was pronounced dead.

Ethan calmly offered Daniel a permanent transfer of all his global assets in exchange for their lives.

Daniel tossed a digital authorization tablet onto the wet concrete at Ethan's feet.

Ethan picked it up, typing in his biometric passcode without a single second of hesitation.

The screen flashed green, confirming that billions of dollars had just changed hands.

Ethan looked up, demanding that Daniel honor their deal and let his family walk away.

“You’re Dead When We Get Home,” He Snapped

Daniel smiled, tucking the digital tablet safely into his coat pocket.

He coldly told his heavily armed mercenaries to shoot all of them and dump their bodies into the ocean.
