Chapter 268.
Warren’s injured leg hung awkwardly beneath him, completely unable to support his weight. Every slight movement sent another wave of pain through him, and his face was soaked with tears as he looked up at Marcus
“Please…” Warren whispered, his voice trembling. “Marcus, I’m sorry. I apologize for everything. Please, enough. I understand now. I shouldn’t have challenged you p>
Gabriel remained on the floor nearby, his eyes red from everything that had happened that night. He looked at his father, then at Marcus, and tears began flowing down his cheeks again.
“Enough, Marcus,” Gabriel pleaded. “Please, enough. Tonight has been hell for us already. That poison made our bodies so weak, and now I have to watch my father suffer like this p>
Marcus looked around the ruined dining room. The broken furniture, shattered glass, terrified faces, and the exhausted men lying across the floor told him everything he needed to know.
His message had been delivered.
He had wanted them to understand the consequences of what they had done, and after seeing the fear in their eyes, Marcus knew they finally understood.
He turned toward Ferran.
“Take them all p>
Ferran immediately nodded. “Yes p>
His men moved forward one after another. Matrix was the first to be pulled up, his hands restrained behind his back as he was taken away. Darren followed, still pale and shaken from everything that had happened.
Gabriel was next.
He looked back at his father as the soldiers dragged him toward the exit, his expression filled with worry. Warren could only watch helplessly from the floor before Ferran’s men finally grabbed him and carried him away as well.
Then it was Cory’s turn.
Two men approached him and grabbed his arms.
Cory lowered his head, believing he was finally leaving the nightmare behind.
But Marcus suddenly spoke.
“Cory p>

Cory froze.
Marcus stared at him with a faint smirk.
“You really thought I wouldn’t know about your plan to escape with Julia’s money p>
Cory’s face changed instantly.
He slowly turned around. “Who… who the heck are you p>
His eyes searched Marcus’s face, confusion mixing with fear.
“Julia told me you were an orphan,” Cory continued. “She said you were just an employee at Langstone. How did you command such power p>
Marcus scoffed. “Well… I can understand why you’re that shocked.” He stepped closer, his expression almost amused.
“I’m the one who blocked all your accounts too p>
Cory’s mouth fell open. For several seconds, he simply stared at Marcus. “You p>
His entire body seemed to go weak. Marcus nodded slightly.
“Yes p>
Cory immediately grabbed Marcus’s sleeve as far as the restraints allowed, his expression desperate.
“Please! I’m sorry for everything I did. I swear I am. I’ll leave Julia alone. I’ll never disturb her again. Just let me go, please p>
Marcus looked down at Cory’s trembling hand before slowly pulling his sleeve free.
He scoffed. “Julia is mine anyway p>
Cory swallowed hard.
“But you will still suffer for what you did to Betty and Aaron,” Marcus continued. His expression became cold again. “That is what you will be punished for p>
Cory’s face drained of color. “Please, Marcus p>
The soldiers dragged him away before he could finish.
Cory continued looking back over his shoulder as he was taken through the doorway, his mind struggling to accept what he had just discovered.
The man they had believed was nothing more than an ordinary employee had just destroyed their finances, commanded Ferran’s men, and brought their entire secret crashing down

around them.
The four men were taken away one after another, their hands restrained behind their backs as Ferran’s men escorted them out of the ruined dining room. Warren was carried because of his injured leg, his face still wet with tears, while Gabriel, Cory, Matrix, and Darren were forced to walk despite their exhaustion.
The room gradually became quiet after they disappeared through the doorway. Broken glass covered the floor, overturned furniture lay scattered around the dining room, and the silence left behind made the events of the night feel almost unreal.
Ferran remained behind.
He walked toward Marcus, stopped a few steps away, and immediately bowed deeply. His head remained lowered as he spoke in a respectful voice.
“Sir, I want to apologize once again for what I did when I first arrived. I completely misunderstood the situation and treated you with disrespect. I sincerely regret it p>
Marcus glanced at him.
He had been impressed by the way Ferran had handled Warren after receiving his order. The man had not hesitated, and despite his earlier mistake, he had quickly understood who truly held the authority in the room.
Marcus scoffed lightly.
“I’ve already forgiven you p>
Ferran slowly raised his head, relief appearing on his face. “Thank you,
sir p>
“But don’t make another mistake,” Marcus continued. His expression immediately became serious. “Make sure you get the confession properly. I want everything recorded and preserved. Their statements, the evidence, everything, and publish it as news p>
Ferran nodded firmly.
“Yes, sir p>
Marcus continued, “Make sure it reaches the public. I want it everywhere. Let the truth spread until everyone knows what they did p>
Ferran immediately bowed again.
“Yes, sir p>
Marcus turned away without saying anything else.
The next morning, the entire city woke up to a scandal that had been buried for years.

News channels suddenly began reporting the same shocking story.
A murder that had once been dismissed as a suicide had allegedly been exposed as something completely different.
Years earlier, Aaron had confronted four wealthy young men after discovering that they had leaked confidential company information. According to the newly released confession, the confrontation had ended with the four men throwing Aaron from a rooftop.
The evidence was devastating.
A recording surfaced alongside the confessions, showing the men admitting what they had done. Their names spread rapidly across social media.
Within hours, the story had become impossible to ignore. But despite all these, there was no any news about what happened yesterday.
Marcus had make sure it stayed hidden p>
