Julian spun around aggressively, thrusting the commitment order directly into Carter’s face. His neck veins bulged as Carter stepped menacingly into his space, the blinding surgical lamps reflecting in his steely gaze. “Mind your business, old man,” Julian hissed, his voice tight with hysterical entitlement. “I own his estate, and he rots where dogs sleep!” Carter Ross remained silent, his jaw clenching so violently that the veins in his temples pulsed. His eyes narrowed, a lethal fury brewing within them. Then, with a sudden, violent movement, Carter snatched the legal paperwork from Julian’s grasp. The forged document fluttered to the stainless steel table, reduced to white confetti. Carter dropped to one knee before the battered veteran, his posture shifting from menace to reverence. He snapped a crisp, trembling military salute. “General Grace, sir!” Carter’s voice was thick with emotion, trembling with reverent conviction. “Twenty years ago, you took shrapnel for my life—I built this entire medical empire for you!” Grace’s breath hitched sharply in his chest. His tear-filled eyes widened in stunned, paralyzed recognition.

Julian watched, aghast, as the tables turned, his sneer replaced by a dawning horror.
