Nicolas arrived faster than anyone expected, so quickly that April's tears hadn't even dried.

"Mr. Hendrix," Corey greeted him with a smile, managing to put on an amiable front. "To what do we owe the honor of your visit? Is there something you wish to instruct us on?" "Instruct?" Nicolas's gaze was icy, his patience thin. "I'm just here to see you dead."

Corey's expression faltered. The last person who had dared speak to him like this was likely suffering in the lowest pits of hell. But Nicolas was another story. Corey couldn't touch him and didn't dare to.

So, Corey forced himself to keep smiling. "Mr. Hendrix, I share quite a connection with your wife and have collaborated with her many times. Such harsh words, especially right off the bat, are rather disheartening."

"A close connection?" Nicolas's voice was laced with sarcasm, and Thea stepped forward with a mocking smile. "Mr. Xander, is that what you call a connection? Sending someone to take my life and swearing you'd cut me to pieces?" She had come prepared and copied the apartment surveillance in advance. Thea held up her phone, playing a recording from the apartment's surveillance system on loop, capturing Chad's earlier threats.

Corey's face fell. "I just learned about this myself, Miss Rowland. The only thing I can assure you of is that... it wasn't my order."

Clearly, Nicolas had no interest in the tangled web of their disputes. Holding Thea's soft hand, he laughed coldly. "Darwin, go ahead."

Nicolas's purpose was simple. It was to take down the entire Viper. A wave of bodyguards dressed in black surged forward, muscles straining beneath their sleeves.

These were Nicolas's elite forces, honed over years. Any one of them could wreak havoc on an entire scene. Nicolas respected the Viper enough to bring in a formidable team.
