The Tycoon's Odyssey

Chapter 93: 93:Her Other Side[II]

Sidhu led Suri to the mansion's underg dungeon lit with a dim light, the air in the cold chamber thick with tsion.

Martha, stripped down to just her undergarmts, was tightly bound to a chair in the cter of the room, her tire body drched with water from head to toe, her hair disheveled and scattered.

A gag was stuffed in her mouth, suffocating her. Her eyes darted a the dimly lit space. She longed for sleep, she wanted to fall unconscious but something injected into her kept her awake no matter how much exhausted she was and tried to fall asleep.

The walls were painted in total black, adding a deceptive comfort to the dreariness of the situation.

Tiny cameras dotted every corner, suring that every momt was captured and monitored.

Suri watched the live feed from a large monitor outside the room. Martha shivering uncontrollably, sat in a fetal position, her eyes darting a in panic.

CRUNG!

The door of the room oped slightly, and the sound of heels echoed.

Martha, who had be pushed into a corner, burst into tears seeing the familiar figure and cried.

"Suri…Believe me...It wasn't me…I…I never wanted to harm Evan…Richard just asked me to keep tabs on you and Evan.."

Martha's cry was full of raw desperation. Her voice shook as she begged, "Suri, please believe me! It wasn't my fault. I never meant to hurt Evan. Richard made me spy on you. I didn't have a choice.

Please, you have to understand!"

After the torture, Martha was a brok woman. Her face was pale and streaked with tears, her eyes empty and lost. The pain had drained all her strgth, leaving her trembling and defeated. Her cries had now turned into just soft whimpers and her earlier pleas for mercy were replaced by deep, haunting sorrow. She felt completely helpless, overwhelmed by her suffering and regret.

Seeing Suri standing still, Martha's heart pounded with fear. She was about to shout and beg, but to her disbelief, Suri ignored her and turned a before leaving.

BANG!

Martha felt her mind collapse, Suri's silce probably haunted and hurt her more than anything.

Her cousin, Sidhu, stood beside Suri and observed this siltly. After a momt of tse silce, Suri turned to Sidhu who asked, "What do you propose we do next? Should I instruct them to break her legs?"

Suri hesitated, th shook her head. "For now, we must sure that she remains in good health. Feed her three times a day, ev if it means forcing her. Also, don't let her fall asleep and keep spraying cold water over her."

In fact, she knew that Martha had already sold her however being one of her childhood frid, Suri decided to show some licy after all it wasn't ough to harm her but who knew she would talk about Evan to Richard making him jealous despite knowing his character.

Moreover, after Evan left from the Coffee Shop, it was her who reported Evan cab number and location to Richard.

The momt Evan was harmed, Suri decided to shred all pretse.

Reluctantly, Sidhu nodded. "I'll arrange it, but she may die."

"So what?"

Sidhu was startled by Suri's cold voice which gave him chills.

Seeing the familiar chilling coldness, Sidhu couldn't help but tremble.

Not many in the family knew about it, but he, who had be trained as a fighter and handled this business, clearly knew how terrific Suri could be.

Though her legal papers stated that she was a 3 or 4 years old, she actually was about to turn 7.

Every family member of theirs received self-defse training, in which Suri not only exalted but also demonstrated unmatched talt.

After a rough debate, the family decided to train her as an emotionless slaughter machine. However, her mother, fearing the negative effects it might have on her daughter, urged Suri to flee, naturally, it was hard to hide in the vast world, but to everyone's wildest dream, Suri hid in the army, something that no one had expected.

She spt a 5 years in the army, undergoing brutal training. In return, she devastated her tire family by warning them to not push her too much.

She acted and blackmailed the members, threating that she would expose their secrets. Singhs might not have be established in business, but they had deep roots in the army of Indra.

Ev Sidhu, who acted as an overlord, was like a double agt to provide support to Indra's secret agts.

After solving the family constraints from the maternal side, everyone wondered what Suri would do next. She became an actress, leaving everyone in the dark as to what was actually going on inside her mind.

Sidhu looked at Martha in pity, wondering why she had to provoke the sleeping tigress.

"I'll handle her disappearance. I want to see Richard's reaction and show her that for Richard, she's just one of his many sluts, nothing special," Suri said firmly, her voice tinged with steel.

Sidhu nodded again. "I'll make sure that ev her bones remain here. They won't uncover anything. Also, I will sd some people to fabricate her death."

"Good," Suri replied curtly. "Inform my mother that I'll return in a month. We'll celebrate th."

With a final nod, Sidhu left the monitor room with Suri, leaving Martha alone in her grim captivity.

Evan and Aria disembarked from their flight at BBSR Airport, with Aria pushing Evan's wheelchair with great care.

Evan seemed distant, lost in his own thoughts until a sudd cry broke through the airport's din.

"Evan!" The voice was filled with both urgcy and anguish and caught Evan's atttion. His eyes darted through the crowd and landed on Celina and Elina, who were frantically pushing their way toward him.

Celina's face crumbled upon seeing Evan's plastered leg and the brace on his right arm and despite her efforts to hold back her emotions, her eyes welled up with tears and spilt over.

"Evan, what happed to you?" she choked out, her voice trembling. "Is this painful!"

Elina, small and visibly shak, ran up to Evan, her face a mix of anger and distress. "Big Brother, are you okay? I can't believe this!"

Her eyes, which were usually bright and full of mischief, were now clouded with concern. "God is really cruel…"

Evan, trying to ease their worry, offered a faint, reassuring smile. "I'm alright, just a bit injured. It's good to see you both."

Celina and Aria's hearts seemed to break upon seeing Evan force a smile. Despite his best efforts, the pain behind his smile couldn't be hidd from their eyes.

Celina wiped her tears with the back of her hand, struggling to compose herself. "We were so worried. We tried to reach you earlier, but—"

As Aria glanced a, her gaze fell on a sleek black car that suddly pulled up in front of them. The vehicle's darked windows and imposing presce gave off an air of foreboding.

Elina's eyes wided as she noticed the car, her small frame tsing. "Who's that?" she asked, her voice trembling.

Aria's hand subtly moved closer to her sidearm, her gaze focused on the vehicle. "We don't know yet," she said quietly, her voice low but firm.
