Adam stood silently in the empty street.
The black car lights reflected on the wet road.
The man in the suit waited patiently for his answer.
For a moment, Adam closed his eyes.
He remembered the life he had left behind.
Luxury.
Power.
But also danger.
Too much danger.
"I told you before," Adam said calmly, "I left that world."
The man sighed.
"You may have left it… but it has not left you."
Adam looked at him seriously.
"What do you mean?"
The man opened a small black folder and handed it to him.
Inside were several documents and photographs.
Adam's eyes widened slightly.
Pictures of destroyed company buildings.
News headlines about financial attacks.
Secret reports.
"Your family company is collapsing," the man explained.
"Someone powerful is trying to destroy everything."
Adam's jaw tightened.
"Who?"
The man hesitated.
"A very dangerous man… Victor Kane."
Adam knew that name.
Victor Kane was one of the most ruthless businessmen in the world.
Years ago, he tried to take control of Adam's family empire.
But Adam's father stopped him.
Now it seemed Victor wanted revenge.
The man looked at Adam again.
"You are the only person who can stop him."
Adam stared at the photos in silence.
His peaceful life…
his job…
his new feelings for Lina…
Everything would disappear if he returned.
But if he refused…
his family legacy would be destroyed.
Adam slowly closed the folder.
And for the first time in years…
he began thinking about returning to the world he once ruled.
