He embraced his frail mother tightly, holding her even closer.
I know its because of that bastard that you started experiencing mental problems. You even accidentally lost Noelle. Im well aware of your intense resentment toward him. I will ensure he faces the consequences.
Later that evening, Ryder returned, gently massaging his sore lower back.
These days, he had been compelled to carry out missions for the National Security Bureau, and the constant strain had left him exhausted and in pain.
Mekhi had been incredibly unkind to him. He appeared so fragile, and Ryder wondered how he could summon the strength for the demanding tasks assigned by the National Security Bureau.
He felt like he was pushing himself beyond his limits. The exhaustion was becoming unbearable.
When would this relentless cycle come to an end?!

But then, the memory of Kysons battered body from the previous night sent shivers down his spine, making him too fearful to curse Mekhi.
Ryder leaned wearily against the wall and took slow, shaky steps into the garden.

The servant shook his head and replied, We cant possibly know his intentions. Its already 6 pm. Hes asked us to complete the cleaning before midnight, or there will be punishments for all of us.
Ryder, though puzzled, was understanding. You can proceed with your duties. You dont need to help me. I can manage on my own.
Thank you for your understanding, the servant expressed his gratitude with a deep bow, then promptly turned and hurried towards the backyard.
As Ryder watched the servants retreating figure, he grew increasingly curious.
Recalling that Mekhi had voiced suspicions about Kyson stealing something from the top floor the previous night, and now, he had ordered a cleaning operation.
It left Ryder pondering Mekhis true intentions behind all of this.
His instincts told him that there was a hidden agenda.
With that in mind, Ryder began to make his way slowly toward the backyard.
The closer he approached, the more distinct the sounds of shattering glass became.
In the backyard, many servants and bodyguards were toiling away, and even Shiloh was among them. They were all engrossed in their tasks, and no one seemed to take notice of him.
Some were setting things on fire, others were breaking glass containers, and a few were digging holes to bury the garbage.
