Minutes earlier, Tristan had been cornered by Sydney\u2019s escape. Then the situation flipped in an instant. A sniper appeared outside. There was only one explanation. Someone had stepped in to help him. A weapon like that was beyond the reach of any ordinary player. Only a veteran drug lord on Flint\u2019s level could provide it. When Julian laid it bare, Tristan\u2019s eyes filled with conflicted emotion. He had underestimated Julian. With the outcome settled, Tristan spread his hands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf that\u2019s the case, why did you turn back just now?\u201d \u201cBecause | wasn\u2019t completely sure yet.\u201d Julian let out a cold laugh. \u201cNow | am.\u201d Diana did not know the history between the Sterling family and Flint, but Raymond and Caleb did. The truth clicked for them at once. They would have to allow Tristan to leave. No one dared gamble on whether that rifle would actually fire. \u2014- Raymond exchanged a look with Julian, then addressed Tristan in a cold voice. \u201cThat\u2019s enough. Quit while you\u2019re ahead. I\u2019ve already sent people to locate the sniper.<\/p>\n<p>Follow new episodes on the ebookcrush.com<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t leave now, you won\u2019t get the chance.\u201d This had been Tristan\u2019s home ground, his carefully staged play. Now he was the one forced to retreat. His jaw tightened, but he was not foolish. Pressing further would gain him nothing. He rose without haste, straightened his suit, and ordered his men, \u201cPull out.\u201d They withdrew at once. The cars had barely left the villa district when they were intercepted. A window rolled down. When Tristan saw who it was, his body stiffened. \u201cGodfather.\u201d Jeremiah\u2019s face showed no emotion. \u201cGet in.\u201d \u201cYes.\u201d Tristan did not hesitate.<\/p>\n<p>He opened the door and climbed inside. The car merged back into traffic. Jeremiah\u2019s fingers rubbed the head of his cane. \u201cHow did walking into a trap you set yourself feel?\u201d \u2014- Tristan stayed silent for a long moment. Then he spoke quietly. * Thank you, Godfather.\u201d Without Jeremiah, he would not have walked out alive tonight. In hindsight, he had not only underestimated Julian. He had underestimated Sydney as well. A pregnant woman had taken down a trained man without making a sound. Jeremiah\u2019s clouded eyes shifted to him. \u201cYou caught Sydney.<\/p>\n<p>Even if you couldn\u2019t kill Julian, killing the woman he loves most should have vented some anger. Yet | heard that you forbade your men from laying a hand on her.\u201d Tristan paused. After a moment, he said, \u201cYou told me she would be useful later. | thought-\u201d \u201cTell the truth,\u201d Jeremiah cut in, his tone final. Tristan knew he could not lie. Pain flickered in his eyes. \u201cWhen my mother died, she was pregnant.\u201d Back then, his father had worked as a driver for the Sterling family. When Julian\u2019s parents died in the car accident, his parents had been in the car as well.<\/p>\n<p>That day had been his father\u2019s scheduled rest day. The assigned driver had fallen ill at the last minute, and his father had filled in. Disaster had struck on the way to drive Julian\u2019s parents out. \u2014- To this day, Tristan did not understand why his mother had been in the car too. No one had survived. That was why, when he saw Sydney pregnant, a trace of mercy surfaced. He wanted only Julian\u2019s life. Letting Sydney live cost him nothing. He told himself it counted as a small kindness for the sibling who never had the chance to be born.<\/p>\n<p>Tristan withdrew with his people, but the tension inside the villa did not fully dissipate. Diana worried about Sydney. She stepped forward and asked softly, \u201cHow are you feeling? Should we go straight to the hospital?\u201d \u201cNot yet.\u201d Sydney shook her head from Julian\u2019s arms. \u201cI\u2019ll go home, take my medicine, and rest.\u201d Then she noticed Raymond staring at her. The look unsettled her. \u201cRaymond, why are you looking at me like that? she asked, puzzled.<\/p>\n<p>Please support our website by sharing this novel\u2019s link on your social platforms \u2014 Reddit, Facebook, WhatsApp, and Telegram.
