Darius hadn’t just taken his place as the Norwood heir. He had taken his family his home everything Evan once loved.
Time after time, Darius targeted him, pushing him to the brink of death.
In a single night, Evan went from the cherished heir of a powerful family to a discarded son, betrayed and cast out.
He would never forget the way Darius looked at him on the night he was kicked out of the Norwood family.
That icy, ferocious, and rabid gaze….
Darius had looked like a man unhinged.
Still, that night taught Evan a life lesson. A person could not just rely on their family and connections
True strength only existed if he himself was strong.
A rich and powerful family that comprised just one person could still be called that.
Hazel, Roxanne, and Anya taught him that he could not believe in romantic love, while Darius and the Norwood family taught him that he could not believe in familial love.
“I never thought you’d dare to show your face, Darius.’
Evan broke the silence.
His voice was soft, laced with an unnamed emotion.
In the next second, he raised his voice and roared, “Aren’t you afraid of dying?”
Darius burst out laughing.
The cruelty on his face was nothing like the obedient son he played at home. With no parents or sisters present, there was no
need to pretend.
This was the real Darius.
His laughter turned almost manic. “Why would I be afraid? Did joining the Solberg family make you think you’re invincible?”
Jasper and the other heirs all sneered at Evan.
They believed he would have died three years ago, yet he actually survived.
He even joined the Solberg family.
So what?
If Cain wanted him dead, not even the Solberg family could save him!

“I’ll admit,” Darius continued, eyes glinting coldly, “you’ve surprised me. I didn’t expect you to be strolling around at a time like this instead of hiding inside Solberg Residence.”
He let out a mocking chuckle. “What? Have you given up? Figured you’re doomed to die at Cain’s hands anyway? I have a suggestion. Get on your knees and beg him. Then, hand over the drakeblood gemstone.”
He said it as if Evan’s guilt were already decided.
Jasper and the others jeered and laughed.
“Mr. Norwood, you’re just putting him in a bind then. Even if he hands it over,
he will still have to die.”

Wake up. Things are different now. Mr. Solomon is furious. He’s made it clear-no one can protect you”
He stepped closer, lowering his voice.
“From what I hear, your so-called saviors don’t care about you anymore. They prefer their first love. Three years ago, they only Saved you because you looked like him. So tell me, Evan, what are you going to do now?”
