  Linda who is currently in school, has appointed an acting CEO to oversee the company's operations, yet she retains control over all signatures and financial transactions. She is concurrently studying business management to enhance her ability to efficiently run the company. Richard , currently attending a technical school, has experienced a significant transformation in his life. Beyond being skilled in combat, he has evolved into an engineer, constructing technology from the ground up. His extensive learning and numerous creations reflect his enhanced strength and growth. More details will be out.

Six months have passed since Linda made the difficult decision to leave Richard's side and assume control of the company, dedicating herself to rectifying the turmoil left by Gloria. The extensive effort required to address the state Gloria left the company in consumed much of Linda's time. In the midst of her demanding responsibilities, Linda inadvertently lost track of Richard's recovery progress. Linda found herself compelled to purchase additional shares of the company, a task made somewhat easier due to her previous substantial holdings. In honoring her commitment to Victor, she navigated the complexities of the business world despite being in the midst of her education. Upholding her promise, she expanded the workforce by employing 500 new workers and initiated reconstruction in certain sections of the company to accommodate the growth. Despite the challenges, Linda recognized the importance of gaining a comprehensive understanding of the company, aiming for an 85% kn...

As Richard took two bullets and Gloria was apprehended, an urgent rush ensued to transport him to the hospital. Linda, tearful and covered in Richard's blood, remained steadfast, continuously applying pressure to his wounds. Upon reaching the hospital, nurses swiftly took charge of Richard, placing him on a mobile stretcher for transport to the emergency room. Linda assisted in pushing him, but her entry into the emergency room was denied. A nurse gently conveyed, "I'm sorry, but you're not allowed to accompany us." Linda nodded, her tearful eyes filled with worry, as she stood in the waiting lobby, engulfed in profound thoughts. Linda endured hours of restless waiting, refusing to sleep or take a break. As the doctor emerged from the emergency room, she anxiously inquired about Richard's condition. The doctor's response carried a mix of relief and concern. "If you had waited one more second to bring him here, he might not have made it," he admit...

Revisiting a moment from the past, Richard made a return to Truto Village to meet with Damian, seeking weapons for their upcoming challenges. Engaged in conversation within the store's anteroom, Damian's timepiece, adorned with a metallic dictator, began emitting a beeping sound. Notably, the anteroom lacked any metallic objects since it served as Damian's designated resting place. The intriguing aspect was that the watch's dictation range was limited to 12 yards, raising questions about the unexpected activation in this seemingly metal-free environment. "Hey, Richard, do you have anything metallic with you?" Damian inquired. "Not really, just here in my clothes with some money," Richard responded. "Well, I sense metal on you, and it's beeping so hard, which means it's within you somehow," Damian observed. As Richard stood up and searched himself, he couldn't find anything metallic. Even his clothes, a polo and track suit, had n...

Regaining consciousness after succumbing to the effects of tear gas, Linda opens her eyes to find herself in a completely unfamiliar location, unmistakably not Gloria's basement. Awakening on the bed, Linda scans the room, her eyes not fully open. As she stands and makes her way to the door, she is almost startled to find Richard serving food on plates at the dining table. The sight overwhelms her with emotion, rendering her speechless – Richard, against all odds,  came for her. After a few moments of silent contemplation, Linda finally breaks the quietude. "Richard, I can't believe it's you," she expresses, her voice filled with astonishment. Richard, turning at the sound of her voice, responds casually, "Hey, your food is ready," a statement that leaves Linda somewhat puzzled. She expected a more enthusiastic reaction from Richard upon seeing her again. As Linda sits down to eat, Richard places a medicine on the table. "Take this after eating; it ...

In the heart of the city, Gloria's frustration reached its peak as Richard remained elusive despite her attempts to locate him through her men scouring every corner. In her office, alongside Mile, she now grapples with devising a meticulous plan to eliminate Linda without leaving a trace back to her. Mike pondered, "What's the plan for dealing with Linda? If we eliminate her, it could lead back to me, considering she's Jim's daughter. People around here still remember her after she infiltrated the company last month," Gloria reminded him, a hint of caution in her tone. "Could we stage her death, similar to what we did with Jim?" Mike proposed. "It's a good idea, but people might connect the dots if both deaths occur in the same way," Gloria countered. "Our initial plan involved Richard shooting her, followed by creating a video clip to send to the press," she explained. While deep in their planning, one of Gloria's men ent...

In the morning, Doris finds herself on her bed, smiling as she reflects on the kiss she shared with Richard. Despite recognizing that the kiss was prompted by heightened tension and emotions, she experiences a sense of relief. It feels like a reassuring sign that Richard may no longer harbor resentment towards her, even though their romantic relationship is no longer part of the equation. As Doris emerged from her room, she spotted Richard clearing the compound. "Good morning, Doris," he greeted, turning to acknowledge her. "Hope you had a nice night's sleep." "Of course I did. What about you?" Doris replied. "Yeah, me too. About last night, we kinda did something, and honestly, at that moment, I wasn't thinking straight. Not that I didn't enjoy the kiss, but you know, I shouldn't have done it, considering we don't have a thing, you know?" Richard confessed, appearing shy and a bit flustered. Recognizing Richard's unease, ...

Richard has immersed himself in the large basin filled with a blend of herbs for nearly 8 hours. While he grapples with his memories, Doris and Hana engage in various activities to pass the time, alternating in their caretaking duties for Richard. They continue cooking as they keep a watchful eye on him. In the realm of memory, Richard traverses back to a painful period when he faced bullying in school. Tasha, someone he once liked, plays a significant role in this recollection, ultimately leading to betrayal. Memories of a pivotal fight with Renly, which marked a turning point in his life, flood back, plunging him into a difficult and tumultuous phase. As Richard's memories unfold, he begins to recall the warmth of a loving family that cared deeply for him. The journey through his past becomes a mix of joy and sorrow, with glimpses of the enjoyable moments he once experienced. Despite the emotional turbulence, his body remains tranquil in the water, allowing him to navigate the tw...

As days turned into weeks and weeks into months, Richard found himself still in Truto Village. Despite his strong desire to recover his lost memories, he couldn't deny the appeal of the idyllic life he was leading in Truto. Indulging in delicious seafood like shrimps, crabs, and fish, he savored the flavors shared during nightly gatherings with Doris and Hana. While Richard was aware of the roughness of the city, he felt a growing pressure from those who anticipated his return. Despite this, he chose to take his time. On the other hand, Hana had yet to initiate preparations for jogging Richard's memory. As they cut and prepared the fish for the evening fire, Doris couldn't help but question Richard. "Hey, Richy," she began, "I've been meaning to ask. You seem to enjoy it here. Why the insistence on leaving?" "Well, I don't have a life here," Richard replied. "My life belongs to the city, and I don't want to stay here. Besides, ...

Upon awakening, Richard realized he wasn't in a hospital, triggering his fury. Stepping outside, he discovered he was in one of Gloria's warehouses. Three security personnel approached, inquiring about his well-being. "I'm fine," Richard replied, perplexed. "But why am I not in a hospital?" "We were following orders from Boss Gloria. She wanted you brought here," one of the security personnel explained. Suspicion gnawed at Richard as he contemplated the circumstances.  The doctor attending to Richard expressed sympathy for him, urging him to take it easy as he regained consciousness. When Richard questioned why he wasn't taken to the hospital, the doctor, Dr. Philips, defended himself, stating he was called in and closely supervised during the process. Philips delved into the truth about Richard's lost memories, revealing that they were intentionally erased and suppressed with drugs. Intrigued, Richard sought more insight into his own i...

Richard awoke from a prolonged slumber, realizing he was securely bound to a bed. Despite his attempts to rise, the ropes resisted his strength. A figure, a male doctor with feminine traits, approached. "Don't strain yourself; these ropes are formidable. A mere glance won't break them, let alone a human," the doctor remarked. "Where am I?" Richard inquired. "Be grateful; I prioritized saving your life first," the doctor responded. As they conversed, Gloria walked in, and Richard observed his surroundings, realizing he was not in a hospital but a warehouse. "What do you want from me?" Richard questioned. "I thought you wanted me dead," he said to Gloria. "Killing you would be a waste of talents," Gloria replied, settling beside Richard and running her fingers through his hair. "Imagine both of us working together. We would be an unstoppable force to reckon with," Gloria suggested, continuing to caress Richard,...

Gloria, upon learning about the incident, was livid. "How could you allow a 19-year-old girl to escape? What's wrong with this team?" she berated her security personnel. "Ma'am, she didn't escape on her own. It wasn't just her; individuals in masks assisted in a sneak attack. We were caught off guard and outnumbered last night. Please forgive us; we are committed to retrieving her," they explained earnestly. Gloria expressed her anger, stating, "Only a fool would be so confident as to enter my compound and take my prisoner. Everyone in this city fears me." Gloria ordered her team to conduct thorough inquiries into whoever infiltrated her compound. "Search every nook and cranny of this street, ask questions, and check the cameras to get a clear view of what happened tonight," she commanded. Turning to Mike, she added, "Follow me to my office." As Richard took charge of the investigation, Gloria and Mike discussed the conc...

Linda awakens from her slumber, finding herself in a dimly lit room, securely bound to a chair. Her attempts to break free prove futile, and frustration builds. "Can someone get me out of here?" she screams. After a tense few minutes, the door creaks open, revealing Gloria's entrance. "Hey, little girl, did you miss me?" Gloria taunts with a smile. As Gloria approaches, Linda's anger intensifies. "What did you do to him?" Linda demands. Gloria, wearing a smug smile, responds, "I didn't do anything to him. I just gave him a reasonable purpose to fight for." "Do you really think he'll want to fight for you?" Linda retorts, her frustration evident. Gloria dismissively calls Linda selfish. "I know you did something to him. He doesn't seem to remember me at all," Linda accuses, her anger boiling over. Gloria, unfazed, replies, "No matter how I did it, the most important thing is that he's on my side, an...

The revised strategy aligns with our previous approach, but this time, we'll incorporate the press to address the current situation. Considering Gloria's influence over the police, journalists are the only individuals we can rely on to disseminate information effectively, Linda conveyed to Victor. "What precisely will the press be disseminating?" Victor inquired. "They will be highlighting that she is responsible for Jim's and Samuel's deaths. If this news spreads, it might compel the CIA to investigate the situation," Linda explained. "How do we plan to obtain solid evidence?" Victor chuckled. "Miss Jim, let me remind you, Gloria commands the most powerful empire in the city. To outsmart her, we need to be somewhat ahead," he added. "That's precisely why we must reach out to Richard," Linda emphasized. "I want to meet him first, hear it from him directly, and understand if there's resentment." Victor q...

Following the intense confrontation involving Gloria, the mayor, and Victor, the outcome not only secured Gloria's triumph but also instilled a profound sense of fear within the government. The news of her formidable security team spread rapidly throughout the city, establishing Gloria as a force to be reckoned with. Many praised her, acknowledging that she operated in a league of her own and deserved the recognition. However, a faction of dissenters remained, fueled by resentment because Prime Tech didn't rightfully belong to her. This division among the people created a palpable tension, leaving Prime Tech employees apprehensive yet, for some, strangely motivated amidst the uncertain atmosphere. Back at the hotel, Linda sat down for breakfast, the news of Gloria's continuous conquests echoing in her ears. A pervasive fear crept over her as she pondered the possibility of never reclaiming her father's company. Yet, amidst her concerns for Prime Tech, her foremost worry...
