"Draven, something's happened!" A woman hurriedly rushed in from the outside, panic clear in her voice.

But the moment she saw the horrific scene before her, she froze. Her eyes darted to Draven, who was being submissive, and then her gaze shifted to Robin and the others.

"I-it's you?" she gasped, shocked, her eyes widening as she noticed the dark atmosphere surrounding them. Her instincts made her take a step back,

The woman was Draven's sister, Obadiah Jensen. She was the same person Robin and the group had encountered when they first arrived in Howellstead. Obadiah shot Robin a hateful glare. "You did this to my brother! I'll kill you!" she spat, grabbing a short knife from the ground and charging at Robin.

Before she could reach him, Catherine kicked her hard, sending her sprawling to the ground.

With quick precision, Catherine grabbed the knife and pointed it at Obadiah's head.

Draven, his voice desperate, shouted, "Please, spare her She hasn't done anything wrong with Shere. All she's ever done is hide behind the Draven Group and bully others!" Catherine's wrist flicked, and in an instant, she struck. The blade severed Obadiah's arm cleanly.

Obadiah screamed, her pain overwhelming her, and she passed out.

Draven lowered his head in regret. "Mr. Ramsey, I know I deserve death, but here..." He handed over a folder. These are the records of all the people I've dealt with over the years. "They expose the true horror of those monsters-videos, documents, everything. They're worse than I

ever was.

"Mr. Ramsey, I have an older sister. For years, she's ignored us, but Annie knows what happened to me as a child. She can tell you everything."

His voice cracked with sorrow, "My poor sister... she's still alive. After I killed her homeroom teacher, I chose this path, and she never spoke to me again.

"Please... give her the 200,000 on this card. It's clean money.

Tearned it before I fell into this darkness, working hard as a deckhand. She deserves this. She's suffered so much.

Tve tried giving her money countless times, but she refuses it. She would rather struggle with her children than accept anything from me. She thinks it's tainted.

"But you, Mr. Ramsey, you're different. If you tell her about it, she will take it."

Robin took the bank card and the chip from him.

"Alright," Robin said after a moment of silence. I'll honor your request."

He paused, his expression hardening. "But Draven, even though you were forced into this life, the pain you caused to the innocent is unforgivable. You've committed too many atrocities. "Now, it's time for you to pay with your life."

Without further words, Robin turned, kicking a short knife that was lying on the floor. The knife flew up. and in an instant, it decapitated Draven.

Blood sprayed out, marking the grim end of Draven's cursed life.

Robin left the bank card and Rachel's address behind, then handed the chip to Catherine. "Take this. It's of no use to me, but Westeria Residence handles these things better than I ever could. "As for who to arrest or climinate, that's up to you."

Catherine eagerly grabbed the chip. "Robin, we can finally talk like normal people. I'm so happy."

Robin raised an eyebrow. "Oh Well, go be happy somewhere else.noveldrama

"Annie, let's go. I'll take you home. Your parents are probably worried.

"Gavin, contact General Feron right now. The explosives in Draven Tower have been deactivated. Well leave the rest to them. Let's head back!

As Gavin's message reached the special forces, they stormed Draven Tower.

The Draven Group, which had terrorized the area for nearly a decade, was finally brought to its end.

Annie was about to get into the car with Robin when Catherine squeezed into the passenger seat. Tm riding in this car."

Annie, who had just lifted her foot to enter, hesitated before pulling it back and sitting in the back insteady

At Westeria Intelligence Agency, the chip that Catherine had brought was immediately passed up the chain of command in Draconia.

A storm of justice was unleashed, targeting the criminals involved in Draven's empire.

One by one, those complicit in Draven's crimes were captured,

In the end, Draven, with his own life filled with sin, took down the hypocrites and scoundrels along with him.

Half an hour later, Robin and the others brought Annie back to Howellstead.

Annic rushed to Crispin and Skye, throwing herself into their arms, crying uncontrollably.

She collapsed to her knees with a sob, staring at Santiago's portrait, tears flowing freely.

Twenty years ago, on a cold winter night, Annie-still an infant-had been abandoned by her birth parents at the entrance of Howellstead.

Later, as she grew, curious villagers revealed to her that she had been adopted by Crispin and Skye, and that her real parents were living in the city.

Why does the bitterness never end?

God, you're cruel, and I can't even say a kind word to you.

I never had the chance to hold your hand.

We never walked through the barren dunes together.
