Parker burst into laughter, waving the letter theatrically. “Seriously? What is this nonsense?” he said between chuckles. “Who writes such a long–winded letter to threaten someone? It’s like they’re auditioning for a dramatic villain role!” 

James joined in, laughing even harder. “Ethan, this isn’t a threat letter; this is your psycho enemy’s love letter!” He snatched the letter from Parker, dramatically tossed it onto Ethan’s lap, and leaned back, still chuckling, 

Ethan shot them a sharp glance, shaking his head in disapproval. “Enough of this nonsense. Be serious for once!” he said firmly, though a faint smile tugged at his lips. 

James wiped his eyes and grinned. “Alright, alright. But honestly, it does remind me of college. Back then, you were the guy who always got the most love letters. Looks like nothing’s changed.” 

“Exactly!” Parker added with a smirk. “Your charm is still attracting all kinds of admirers, even the dangerous, psychotic ones.” 

Ethan sighed, his glare intensifying. “Guys…” he said, his tone laced with a warning. 

Realizing they’d pushed their luck, both James and Parker stopped laughing immediately, straightening up as though caught by a stern teacher. 

“Good,” Ethan said with a nod, his expression softening slightly. Then, as if a thought crossed his mind, he asked, “Are the hidden guards stationed near Lily?” 

James nodded confidently. “Yes, they’re in place. She’s safe.” 

Ethan relaxed a fraction but still looked pensive. “What about tracing this person?” he asked. 

James sighed, his expression turning grim. “I’ve tried everything, Ethan. Just like you said, this person is meticulous. They covered their tracks so well, I couldn’t find a single lead.” 

“What?” Parker exclaimed in disbelief. “Even you couldn’t trace them? You’re one of the best at this sort of thing!” 

James’s somber nod spoke volumes. “Whoever they are, they’re not just anyone. They know what they’re doing, and they’ve done it flawlessly.” 

The room fell silent for a moment as the weight of James’s words sank in. 

Parker broke the silence. “So, what now? What’s the next move?” 

Ethan’s eyes hardened with determination. “We search again,” he said firmly. “No matter how long it takes or how deeply they’ve hidden themselves, we’ll find them. We have to stop them before they make another 

move.” 

The seriousness in Ethan’s tone left no room for argument. Everyone nodded in agreeme understanding the urgency of the situation. This wasn’t just a threat anymore–it was a challenge. 

Ethan clenched the letter in his hand, his gaze fixed on the view outside the window. His mind churned with thoughts of strategy and resolve. Whoever this enemy is, they’ve made a grave mistake by underestimating me. In this game, I’ll make sure I’m the hunter, not the prey. 

Meanwhile at the Raldwin Mancion

In a sleek, black car speeding toward the Baldwin estate, Beatrice and Authur sat quietly, deep in thought. Their destination was one of the other three prestigious family homes–the Baldwin Mansion. 

The Baldwins were more than just powerful allies; they were close friends. Charlse and Jacky, the heads of the Baldwin family, had a bond with the Collins that spanned decades. The men had been inseparable since childhood, while their wives had formed their own unbreakable friendship during their college days. 

The Baldwin Family was as accomplished as the Colloins. Baldwin Charlse, a renowned businessman, had successfully passed the reins of his empire to his eldest son, who now served as CEO of Baldwin Corporation. The second son, had chosen a different path, following in the footsteps of his grandfather, and making a name for himself in the military. 

As the car approached the grand gates of the Baldwin Mansion, Beatrice glanced at her husband. “Do you think they’ll have any insight into this situation?” she asked softly. 

Authur nodded. “If anyone can help us piece this puzzle together, it’s Charlse. The Baldwins have resources and networks that might reveal what we’ve missed.” 

With that, the car rolled to a stop, and the two stepped out, ready to face the next step in uncovering the mystery surrounding the looming threat to their family. 

Jeff, the youngest son of the Baldwin Family, is a well–known actor, following in the footsteps of his mother, Jacky, who was a celebrated actress before stepping away from the industry to focus on raising her children. 

Interestingly, Jeff is a twin. He has a younger sister who, unlike him, remains largely unknown to the public. Very little information about her has ever been revealed, and no one seems to have seen her in recent years. Rumor has it that she now lives in Canada with her grandfather, Lin senior. 

Years ago, when the Baldwin Couple and the Collins couple got married, they made a mutual promise: their children would one day marry each other, uniting the two families even further. Based on this agreement, Ethan was supposed to marry the youngest daughter of the Baldwin Family. 

However, circumstances had changed. Ethan was now married to Lily, and the Collins Family needed to inform the Baldwins about breaking the long–standing marriage pact. They were anxious about how the Baldwins would take the news. 

When the Collinss arrived at the Baldwin Mansion, their car smoothly passed through the grand gates into the sprawling estate. The luxurious villa was an imposing sight, reflecting the Baldwin’s wealth and prestige. The couple was warmly received by the housekeeper, who guided them into the mansion. 

Inside the elegant hall, Charlse and Jacky were waiting for their guests. It had been a long time since the two families had met, so after exchanging pleasantries and catching up briefly, everyone settled down on the plush couches. The maids served tea and refreshments, adding to the formal yet warm atmosphere. 

“Authur, Beatrice, what a surprise to see you here!” Charlse said, his voice carrying both curiosity and concern. “I thought you’d be enjoying your vacation for a few more days.” 

Authur sighed softly before responding, “Well, our son Ethan had a minor accident, so we had to cut the trip short.”
