You think you can just bump into me? You’re asking for a fight!”
The alcohol coursing through Caspian’s system gave him a false sense of courage. And with his mind togey, he swung a punch. “Get the hell out of my way!” The guy wasn’t a pushover He waved his hand, and soon enough, a group of people supounded them.
I quieldy escalated into a full–on brawl.
In the end, everyone involved ended up at the police station
“Mc Bellwether, if you want to leave, you’ll need to make a call to have someone bail you out, and sign some papers
Caspian shouted and raged, the officer across from him wore a look of indifference, as it this was nothing new
Suddenly, Caspian remembered the unfinished business meeting and slammed back into the chair. Enitiated, he pulled out his phone.
He dialed a member and said, “Shannon, I’m at the police station Can you come bail me out?”
All he heard was a cold, automated vulce on the other end. “Sorry, the mumber you’ve dialed is unavailable.”
That was whep he remembered that Shamon had turned off beephone
With no other choice, he had to call someone else.
His fair–weather friends, who had once been close, were now avoiding him because of his actions.
Even his closest friends, who had promised to stand by him, quieldy distanced themselves after warnings from their elders.
As for his parents, they were already in the hospital after a violent fight
He was completely alone.
For the rest of the night, he sat helplessly on the cold metal chair.
It wasn’t until the next moming that Theodore, who had cleaned up the mess Casplan left behind, hurried over to bail him out.
Exhausted, Caspian slouched in the back seat. Rubbing lus brow, he gave Theodore instructions to arrange another meeting with those clients and apologize to
them
But Theodore didn’t answer right away. His silence was unsettling
Sensing something was wrong, Caspian straightened up. “What’s going on?” Theodore replied cautiously, “Mr. Bellwether, the company has gone bankrupt.”

Caspian’s face tumed ashen in an instant. “Say that again. What happened to the company?”
Theodore carefully glanced back at him. “1-11’s gone bankrupt…”
Without waming, Caspian grabbed Theodore by the neck and cursed for the first time in his life, “What the fuck are you talking about?
Throdore, trembling, handed him his phone. Caspian snatched it and scarmed the contents.
After he had sent Bella to terminate the pregnancy, she had held a grudge. She’d gone ahead and filed a formal report, accusing Steve, the chairman, of embezzling
fonds.
An investigation tram was quickly dispatched to the company. They uncovered that Steve had gambled away tems of billions and had embezzled staggering 7-8 bellion dollars from the company.
This was the direct cause of the company losing its cash flow and going bankrupt
Because of the massive amount he had stolen and never repaid, Steve was facing a sentence of over ten years or possibly life in prison
Once everything was confirmed, they took Steve away from the hospital in the dead of night.
Caspian felt the world blur around him as he read the report.
When he finally made it to the company, he found it swarming with angry employees and workers demanding their wages. In desperation, he slipped in through
the back door.
Inside, chaos reigned
As soon as he finally reached his office, Alena came rushing out from inside.
Tears streaming down her face, she threw herself into his anus and asked, “What are we going to do now?”
But Caspian’s mind was consumed by the company’s bankruptcy. He had no time to deal with Alena. He simply told Theodore to take her away.
He sank into his chair. As he listened to the upenat from downstairs, his mind was a complete bluc.
In the end, he reached out to everyone I knew, hoping to borrow money and buy himself some time,
However, Bellwether Corp had become a black hole. No matter how much money was thrown at it, nothing would ever come back.
One by one, they all turned Caspian down. By mightfall, he had borrowed nothing.
He walked over to the floor–to–ceiling windows and stared at the traffic below. For a brief moment, the thought of jumping crossed his mind.
But when be thought of his helpless mother and the search for Shannon, he quickly shook off the dark thought.
The following month, the company began the liquidation process.
After everything was done, the Bellwether building was sold off, and the Bellwether name vanished from the upperechelons of society
With nowhere else to go, Caspian thought of the house he and Sharon had one shared as newlyweds.
Back then, he loved her so much that he bought two villas and put them in her name.
But when they divorced, she had been disgusted by the places, so she never took them. She simply handed them back to him.
Since the villas were in Shannon’s name, they hadn’t been selard in the bankruptcy.
Caspian settled Allena into one of them before driving to the villa on the outskirts.
Since he had left Eide and the group of homeless men drugged and abandoned there, he hadn’t bothered with it since.
Later, the guards told him that after he woke up, she had stabbed and filled several people,
Casplan had planned to put her in prison, but just before her sentence, she was diagnosed with a mental illness. Unable to do anything else, he locked her away in
the villa
Inside, Elste watched the news about Bellwether Corp’s bankruptcy on TV. she suddenly burst into wild laughter.
Just then, the door to the villa caked open, and a tall figure stepped inside.
