Chapter 159: Revenge

Chapter 153
~Author’s POV~
The room was cloaked in shadows, illuminated only by the faint glow of a laptop screen perched on a polished mahogany desk.
A man sat in the leather chair, his fingers steepled under his chin as his eyes remained glued to the video playing on the screen.
The footage was grainy, but the details were unmistakable: the explosion of Snow Zephyr’s car, the fire engulfing it in a fiery blaze, and the subsequent chaos.
The camera captured Zara collapsing, blood staining her temple, while Zade and Snow scrambled to shield her from further harm.
A low chuckle bubbled up from the man’s chest, filling the room with its sinister resonance. He leaned forward, the harsh light of the screen casting faint shadows on his angular features, though his identity remained hidden in the room’s dim light.
"There you go, Snow Zephyr," he murmured, his voice carrying a venomous satisfaction. "This is only the beginning of the pain you’ll endure. You’ll learn what it’s like to feel helpless, to have the things you cherish torn away piece by piece."
The man’s lips curled into a cruel smile. "You will understand how I felt the day Marcus was taken from me. I’ll make sure of it."
A sharp knock interrupted his thoughts, the sound echoing through the room. His head turned slightly, his amusement fading as he straightened in his chair.
