Victor's words cut deep.
"Collateral damage."
Zade's anger boiled.
"You're my father, yet you're responsible for Thompson's death."
Victor shrugged.
"Business is business, son."
Axel stepped forward.
"We'll take you down."
Victor smiled.
"You'll never win. Nightshade's too big."
Ryker shifted uncomfortably.
"Father, stop."
Victor's gaze turned cold.
"Silence, Ryker. You're part of this."
Zade's eyes locked onto Ryker.
"Are you involved?"
Ryker hesitated.
"I...I didn't know what it was."
Zade's face twisted.
"Lies. You're just like Father."
Axel placed a hand on Zade's shoulder.
"Let's get out of here."
We left the estate.
Emotions raw.
Zade's world shattered.
His family's deceit.
