"The day my daughter left for college, I thought I had nothing to lose. And decided to spend my days living for righteousness, let's call it what it actually is, revenge, against the people who wanted to harm my precious. Even though I knew my baby was safe, the thought that everything could have gone south if not for an unexpected acquaintance extending a helping hand kept
awake at night.
There are two tis I felt helpless in my life, first when my daughter asked who her father was and second when the circle tried to take her from . I don't want to feel that helpless ever again. Therefore, I did everything in my power to end the circle.
Turns out I had a lot to lose. My trusted subordinates who believed in
and my idea of righteousness. They selflessly dedicated themselves to my arrangents against the circle. They paid the price for my recklessness. Not just them, their families ended up becoming collateral damage in my quest for revenge.
The power of a third-rate city's police chief wasn't worthy enough to even beco a thorn in the circle's paths. But they took a particular interest in . Since they could not hurt
because of the morning star university, they started to aim at the people surrounding . One by one, all of them or their families suffered a terrible fate.
By the ti I realized what was happening, the damage was done. I had lost most of my loyal colleagues, friends, and subordinates, and they had lost their families. The circle had turned
into a jinx. Anyone who ever worked with
or was in contact with
started to get hurt directly or indirectly.
Worst of it all, all this was a ga to them. They wanted to see how long I would last before breaking down. To end it, I gave them what they wanted. I stopped going after them and isolated myself from the world. They got bored and eventually stopped. Or at least that is what I thought.
Rember the last ti we t at my precinct? Later that day, I did so digging to check what was going on in your life, and it turned out that attending your parent's funeral was a big mistake. I put a big target on your back. Kevin Zhang was targeting you under the orders of the circle. That fool was greedy. He eyed your parent's silver grimoires instead of completing the circle's mission.
After that, I warned Kevin Zhang to leave you alone and went to the circle to make a deal in exchange for your life. They agreed and asked
to do so things for which I had to leave the city and returned today early this morning.
When I returned to my surprise, lots of things had changed. For starters, the circle fled the city and settled in sun blossom city. And then I ca to know that the Bright Lions had taken over more than half of the circle's businesses in the city. What ca as an even greater shock to
was that my nephew, for whom I risked my life outside the city, had beco a high school gang leader.
I can't let that happen. How am I supposed to show my face to my friend in the afterlife? So I decided to do the only thing I knew, to scare the shit out of you and set you straight. But who knew, when I was busy dealing with my demons, you had your demons to face. It changed you. I can no longer see the timid little boy I t at the funeral.
As you said, intimidation doesn't work on you, so I am trying to reason with you, Wyatt. It is not too late. You have to quit this delinquent lifestyle and buckle down. Earlier I saw the videos of the tournant. You were great. I know if you try harder, you can get into a morning star university and study with your sister. You are a lot more mature than her. With you there, I would worry less about her." Denise was trying to coax . She didn't an the last part. What she actually ant was the other way around. She would worry less about
if I were to enter the morning star university under the protection of her daughter.
If I were to believe her explanation, the reason she kept her distance from young Wyatt after the funeral was because she was worried the circle would target him as they did to all the people she had shown sentint for.
And the reason she did not reach out when Kevin Zhang challenged
to a life or death battle, or when the entire city was conspiring for my death, or when the whole world called
a fraud was because she did not know about them as she seed to have left the city after making a deal with the circle for my life.
I don't think Denise is lying because with my connections, I can find the truth, and Denise, too, knows that. So that ant I had every little to bla Denise for. How narcissistic of her to think that the circle was targeting young Wyatt because of her, and how could she trust a deal with the circle?
All I can bla Denise is for being stupid. Other than that, she stepped up when actually needed. Even though it was idiotic of her to make a deal with the circle for my life, in the end, she stepped up. When the lamb itself was idiotically begging to be used, how could the circle say no? Once she left the city, Kevin Zhang did not waste ti challenging
to a life-and-death battle.
"Let's say I believe you. Then what did the circle ask you to do outside the city in exchange for my life?"
