My son’s birth was supposed to be the happiest moment of my life, but it quickly turned into one of the most challenging times I’d ever faced. Soon after his birth, I found myself unexpectedly going through a divorce, which left me emotionally shattered and financially struggling. With a newborn in my arms, I couldn’t return to work right away, and I had to rely on the alimony I was awarded to support both my son and myself. However, the alimony wasn’t enough to cover our living expenses. It barely covered the essentials, and I found myself constantly looking for ways to make the money stretch. That’s when I came across an investment scheme that promised massive returns anywhere from $1,000 to $10,000, or even up to $500,000 on a $5,000 investment. Desperate to secure a better future for my son, I decided to take a risk, believing that this could be the breakthrough I so desperately needed.I invested the $5,000, hoping that the promised returns would help me pay my bills, buy necessities for my child, and alleviate some of the weight of my situation. But, as it turned out, the entire scheme was a scam. The money I invested disappeared, and I had no way of recovering it. I was crushed. What started as a simple hope for a better future turned into a nightmare. My financial situation went from bad to worse, and I found myself drowning in despair. I was completely helpless, and I felt like I had failed my son. It was then that my family stepped in to support me, offering both emotional and practical help during this incredibly tough time. They helped me connect with a company called Rapid Digital Recovery, a firm that specializes in recovering lost or hidden assets. I was skeptical at first, but I was willing to try anything to get back what I had lost. The team at Rapid Digital Recovery worked tirelessly on my case, and after some time, they successfully recovered 99% of my investment. Although I didn’t recover everything, the 99% recovery was a huge relief. The support from my family, combined with the efforts of Rapid Digital Recovery, gave me hope once again. I learned a hard lesson about trusting too easily but also discovered the importance of seeking help when things feel hopeless. My son and I are still rebuilding, but I’m determined to keep moving forward, no matter the challenges that lie ahead.

The footsteps sounded closer, and closer, and closer, until he faintly heard Siri's voice welcoming someone into the house, but before he could open his eyes to see who it was, he felt a large hand gripping his neck, his legs were locked tightly between much larger ones, and, he felt the cold metal of a gun placed directly on his...gun. Zeno quickly opened his eyes from instincts, ready to fight off his attacker, but the moment he did so, he was met with mesmerizing dark grey orbs, staring dangerously at him. The face of his attacker was too close, he couldn't make out his features, but he knew they were sharp, even from a closed look. He didn't bother fighting, he didn't want to lose his junior member down there, and his Nana still expected grandchildren from him. He couldn't disappoint her. "Who. Are. You?" The voice of his attacker was so deep, dark, and commanding. Zeno was a fighter, but he felt a chill run down his spine from the sound of the voice. The hand around Zeno's neck tightened, but he endured it, he was a fighter. Judging by his attacker's looks and actions of confidence, this was his boss. ~~~ After losing his parents and being faced with an unbelievable medical bill, Zeno Evander finds himself working as a Manny for a mysterious Billionaire, but it doesn't last long; after almost being killed by the Mafia billionaire, Zeno swore never to return to that place again. But after a week of escaping the Mafia billionaire, Zeno finds himself kidnapped and Blackmailed into signing a year's contract as the Mafia's Manny and bodyguard. Could Zeno escape his evil and monstrous boss? Or would he be consumed by him? Consumed by the forbidden passion he felt build up between them? Would he risk his life just to experience the burn of forbidden love? After the betrayal from his family, ex-wife, and friend five years ago, Sebastian Orion became a totally different being. He became cold, aloof, and dangerous as he rose to become the most feared Mafia king of the underworld, and everyone who heard his name shivered from fear. He distrusted everyone and hated any form of human relationships, building a thick wall around himself. But, not until his son's manny came into the picture. Zeno irritated him in every way, he hated the mere sight of his bodyguard and would have chosen to kill him if not for the sake of his son. Sebastian always tried to push Zeno away by treating him in the lowest way possible. But when the contract was coming to an end, were his feelings still the same? Or did he suddenly realize that it wasn't only his son that needed Zeno? ~~~ "What are you waiting for? Leave!" Sebastian snarled bitterly. He would have to speak with Butler Nicole to find out why he brought back this stupid clown to his house. He had just returned from yet another trip, just to find this nuisance in his house again. He hated Zeno so much; he was classless and looked extremely dangerous to be near his son; who knew if he was sent as a snitch by an enemy? "I'm sorry, boss, but I can't," Zeno said and stood his ground. Leaving would mean he wanted his Nana to die; no, he'd rather stay here and take all punches that came his way; he was used to it. "What?!" Sebastian couldn't believe that such stupid people were still existing in the world. "I can't leave," Zeno repeated.

The cockroach den of Brooklyn, New York, harbors Wall Street's most feared hunter. Lucas - the diner waiter who is humiliated by spilled red wine every day - spends his time between polishing silverware writing hedge fund loopholes in ketchup. When he discovers that the financial queen has blackmailed herself into becoming a scapegoat with her mother's chemo bills, the blockchain key hidden in his steak knife starts to glow. On the night of the Michelin three-star bow tie stained with blood, the poor kid used cryptocurrency to set off a financial nuclear explosion across the Manhattan yacht and the UN dome. It was a battle between mole crickets and giant predators, where mathematical formulas became daggers piercing the throats of capital, and all the rules would be rewritten in the burning flames of Bitcoin. When the digital flood engulfs the bronze bulls of Wall Street, you will realize: true power is always born in the eyes of those who have been stepped into the muck.
