The private jet continued its steady climb, disappearing into the endless blue sky.

Far below, the world carried on, completely unaware of the game unfolding behind the

scenes.

Back at Blackwood Manor, the morning resumed as though nothing had happened.

Dressed in a tailored black suit, crisp white shirt, and neatly knotted tie, Damien descended the grand staircase looking every bit the composed businessman preparing for another day at the office.

As he reached the bottom of the staircase, he found Dominic, Charles, and Eleanor seated in the living room over their morning tea.

Dominic was the first to notice him. He set his teacup down before looking at Damien.

“Son, I just spoke with your mother,” he said. “Everything went according to plan. Their plane took off a few minutes ago, and everything is clear on their end.”

A quiet sense of relief settled over Damien as Dominic looked at him steadily.

“Are you ready?”

Damien met his father’s gaze and nodded once.

“I am.”

Dominic gave a satisfied nod.

“In four hours, the first attack will be initiated,” he reminded him. “You should receive the notification around one o’clock this afternoon. I’ll be ready to leave the moment you call.” Damien nodded firmly before asking,

“I know you can,” Eleanor replied, gently squeezing his our “Thats why do y me something.”

Damien looked at her curiously.

“What is it, Grandma?”

She lifted a hand to his cheek.

“Promise me you’ll bring my granddaughter-in-law home safely

A smile tugged at the corners of Damien’s lips.

“I promise.”

“That’s my good grandson.” Eleanor smiled warmly before giving his cheek a gente par

“Now off you go. You may be the CEO, but that doesn’t mean you’re allowed to be late.

The tension in the room eased, and soft laughter rippled through the family.

Leaning down, Damien kissed his grandmother on the cheek.

Charles stepped forward and pulled him into a firm embrace.

“Be safe, son.”

“I will, Grandpa.”

After they separated, Damien turned to his father.

Dominic held his gaze for a long moment before saying,

“It’s our turn to play our part.”

Damien gave a single nod.

“I understand.”

Before either of them could say another word, Alfred entered the room.

“Sir, your vehicle is ready.”

Damien nodded. “Thank you, Alfred. Please look after everyone while I’m away.”

“Of course, Sir.”

With one last glance at his family, Damien walked toward the entrance.

Outside, his sleek black Bentley was already waiting at the foot of the front steps. James stood beside the rear passenger door.

The moment Damien stepped outside, James straightened and greeted him with a respectful nod before opening the door for him.

Damien climbed into the rear seat while James took his usual place in the front.

As soon as the doors closed, Damien spoke.

“Is everything I instructed already in place?”

“Yes, Sir,” James replied. “Everything is ready. The moment we’re notified about the attack, we’ll leave immediately. I’ve already informed the hangar, the flight crew, and everyone involved. They’re all on standby.”

“Good.”

The vehicle slowly rolled forward, passed through the manor gates, and disappeared onto the morning road. As far as they were concerned, the day was unfolding exactly as planned.

They couldn’t have been more wrong.

What they failed to notice was the dark sedan parked some distance away, its driver silently watching their every move.

He waited until the vehicle disappeared from sight before pulling out his phone.

Three rings later, the call connected.

“On tol’ko chto vyekhal. Napravlyaetsya v ofis. Yego mashina pervoy pokinula pomestye. Vsyo spokoyno. Nikakoy neobychnoy aktivnosti.”

(“He just left. He’s on his way to the office. His vehicle was the first to leave the estate. Everything appears normal. No unusual activity.”)

After ending the call, the man started his engine and drove off in the same direction the black
