Chapter 906:
Upon hearing his daughter mentioned, Charlie's expression hardened as he responded with displeasure, “Why
involve my daughter? She's unharmed. Moreover, this matter concerns only us. Leave her out of it.”
Jayden remarked, “Had | not known you better, | might have been deceived.” He clenched his jaw, his eyes
betraying deep-seated rage and murderous intent.
He revealed, “Your true intent was clear from the start, driven by Enzo’s orders to dismantle my power and

“Do you really need reminding?” Jayden countered. “Wasn't it you who delivered Elyse into Aarya’s care,
effectively sealing her fate? You've wronged my beloved, and now it’s tfor retribution.”
Charlie gasped as realization dawned on him. Jayden had somehow uncovered the secret transfer of Elyse. How
could Jayden possibly know about that?

Charlie knew defeat was inevitable. His power was crumbling, and even survival today couldn't prevent his
downfall.

meeting alone.

resembling a sunbather.
Disheveled, Charlie approached without formalities and requested a cigarette. Without hesitation, Jayden handed
over the entire box.
Charlie ignited his cigarette, took a deep drag, and felt a momentary relief from his stress.
