Chapter 3 - The True Mastermind
The heavily armed tactical team completely ignored the screaming guests and surrounded Vanessa instantly.
One of the massive men easily slapped the handgun out of Vanessa's grip, sending it clattering across the marble floor.
Vanessa did not look afraid at all as the dangerous men secured the perimeter of the living room.
She smiled brightly and stepped aside as an older man in a tailored gray suit walked casually through the shattered door.
It was Victor, Vanessa's billionaire father and the most ruthless criminal overlord in the city.
Adrian tightened his grip on Mia, realizing this entire nightmare was a highly coordinated ambush.
Victor walked over to his daughter and suddenly slapped her fiercely across the face.
Vanessa stumbled backward, holding her red cheek in absolute shock and confusion.
Victor coldly berated her for acting like an impatient, emotional fool over a simple haircut.
He explicitly stated that the ultimate goal was never to steal a pathetic technology company from Adrian.
Victor slowly turned his cold, calculating eyes toward the little girl hiding behind her father.
He revealed that Mia possessed a remarkably rare genetic blood type that was entirely unique in the medical database.
Victor needed Mia alive because she was the only viable organ donor in the world for his dying, legitimate son.
Adrian roared in pure fury, launching himself across the room to protect his child from the monsters.
Three tactical guards immediately intercepted him, beating him brutally to the floor with the butts of their heavy rifles.
Mia screamed for her father as Victor's men violently ripped her from Adrian's desperate grasp.
Adrian coughed up blood, fighting with every ounce of his remaining strength against the crushing weight of the guards.
Victor instructed his men to secure the child in the armored vehicle waiting outside.
He looked down at the bleeding, defeated father with an expression of profound disgust.
Victor commanded his mercenaries to lock the doors and set the entire mansion on fire with the witnesses inside.
The guards began pouring highly flammable liquid across the expensive furniture and carpets.

A single lit match was casually tossed onto the soaked floorboards before the heavy doors slammed shut.
Adrian watched in absolute horror as a towering wall of orange flames erupted directly between him and his kidnapped daughter.
