empire. Are we really going to just hand it over? What about the guys who will be left with nothing?”
Benjamin said, “Carlisle must have considered that. He must have a plan if he’s asking us to do this.
There has to be a way out.”
Valin’s eyes lit up with realization. “Did Carlisle mention who to sell it to?”
Benjamin lit a cigarette of his own and replied, “Titan.”
Valin smiled. “Now I understand Carlisle’s plan.”
Sirius and Benjamin looked at Valin, eager for him to explain.
Valin smiled. “Didn’t you guys say that Jalen failed to recognize you?”
Sirius nodded. “He shouldn’t have. They were still trying to figure out who Benjamin and I were.”
“Do you think they’ll remain clueless?” Valin pressed.
Benjamin shook his head. “They’ll probably figure out who we are soon.”
A shiver ran down Sirius‘ spine, and his eyes widened with sudden realization.
Once Jalen finds out who they are, there will definitely be relentless revenge. Their businesses would
undoubtedly be destroyed.
Carlisle planned to make Titan take the fall.
Sirius suddenly felt guilty for doubting Carlisle’s intentions earlier, his face full of remorse. “I misjudged
Carlisle.”
Valin sighed softly. “Who would’ve thought an 18–year–old student could be so cunning?“
Benjamin was tending to his wounds when his phone suddenly vibrated. He picked it up and answered
the call.
“Carlisle…” His speech was slurred due to his injured tongue.
“Liquidate all of Heath’s assets,” Carlisle ordered.
“What?” Benjamin was full of questions, and his emotions surged. “Why, Carlisle?”
These assets were partly bought with Carlisle’s 15 million dollars and partly earned through Heath’s hard work. Selling everything felt like letting Heath’s efforts go to waste.
“Just do as I say. Leave Riverland with Heath tonight.” Carlisle’s voice carried an undeniable authority.
After a brief hesitation, Benjamin reluctantly agreed. “Alright.”
He paused and then asked, “Who should I sell them to?”
A smile played at the corner of Carlisle’s mouth. “Sell them to Titan.”
Benjamin didn’t understand Carlisle’s strategy but reluctantly ended the call.
Valin frowned and asked, “Did Carlisle tell you to sell our assets?”
Benjamin nodded.
Sirius was visibly agitated and exclaimed, “Benjamin, Carlisle doesn’t trust your abilities!”

Valin couldn’t stand by any longer. He pulled Benjamin away. Benjamin, calm down! We all served under Horace. Sirius would never betray us
Remembering how Sinus had refused to betray them under Jalen’s torture, Benjamin slowly released his
Seeing a chance to reason, Valin said, ‘Sinus does have a point, though. Carlisle mentioned the alternative medicine to play on your emotions and ensure your loyalty.”
“You want to get hit too?” Benjamin glared at him.
Valin wisely shut his mouth.
Benjamin gradually calmed down and helped Sirius up. He then sat back on the couch and said slowly,” Heath once told me something very wise. Do you want to hear it?”
Valin nodded.
Sirius took out a cigarette with bloodied hands, put it in his mouth, and lit it.
Benjamin continued, “Heath said that Carlisle gave us a future, and we are destined to work for him.”
Valin and Sirius lowered their heads.
Carlisle had indeed given them everything they now had. Their loyalty to him was unquestionable.
It would have been no different if Heath had told them to kidnap Jalen’s daughter. They would have gone
ahead, risking their lives to get the job done.
After all, Heath had provided them with a life of comfort and luxury.
Benjamin went on, “The thing is, when Carlisle asked me to do this, I hesitated. That’s why he had to play
the emotional card. If Heath were here, he would have executed Carlisle’s orders without a second
thought.”
Sirius took a long drag on his cigarette, his emotions in turmoil. “We’ve worked so hard to build this
