Chapter 3 Hang In There

• An hour ago, after Don Tartarus issued his command to Athena, the private jet of Tartarus Syndicate swiftly landed near him.
• Following that, it took off once again.
• Its destination was Jacaster of Clusia.
• At that moment, Zoran, seated on the private jet, had bloodshot eyes and clenched fists. His spirit was on high alert, filled with intense tension.
• It was unclear whether the feelings stirring within were of excitement or worry.
• Zoran wished fervently that the plane could immediately fly to Jacaster, for he needed to rescue his wife and daughter.
• He wished nothing more than to shatter those villains who had harmed his wife and daughter.
• Zoran had already regarded the woman named Sheila as his wife.
• Regardless of whether Sheila was willing or not, Zoran had made up his mind.
• Five years ago, if it hadn't been for Sheila risking her life to save him, the current Don Tartarus would not have existed.
• Zoran was originally a descendant of the Levitzki family from Yannopolis.
• In the Levitzki family of Yannopolis, he was known as Novak Levitzki.
• Back then, Novak was only eighteen, full of youthful vigor.
• At a banquet, Novak saw his sister, Nephele Levitzki, being bullied by Jason Zimmerman of the Zimmerman family.
• In a fit of anger, Novak gave Jason a beating.
• However, the Zimmerman family held overwhelming power in Yannopolis.
• Novak had beaten up someone from the Zimmerman family in public, humiliating the Zimmerman family greatly.
• Naturally, the Zimmerman family would not just let it slide.
• Jason's father kept putting pressure on the Levitzki family.
• Under the relentless pressure from the Zimmerman family, the Levitzki family had no choice but to cut ties with Novak.
• Novak was then driven out of the Levitzki family.
• Having been banished from the Levitzki family, Novak lost the protection of the Levitzki family and left Yannopolis, fleeing to Zaprington, where he adopted the name Zoran.
• There, in the heart of the Zaprington, he settled down and began to build his own career.
• However, a year later, the people from the Zimmerman family still managed to find him.
• Zoran was pursued by assassins sent by the Zimmerman family, and was also drugged by the buddy he trusted the most.
• Fortunately, with the covert assistance of another friend, Zoran managed to make a lucky escape.
• At that time, Zoran, in a state of panic, drove off to Jacaster.
• Due to the effects of the aphrodisiac, Zoran lost control of himself, causing the vehicle he was driving to veer off course and collide with a large tree.
• The violent collision caused the car to catch fire.
• Trapped in the car and about to be burned alive, Zoran thought he was going to die there when Sheila happened to pass by.
• Relying solely on her own strength and braving the danger of a car explosion, Sheila managed to rescue Zoran from the vehicle.
• After being rescued, however, Zoran lost all sense of rationality under the influence of the aphrodisiac. In his irrational state, he ended up having sex with Sheila.
• In order to create the illusion that Zoran had died from organ failure due to an overdose, Zoran's buddy had slipped him an aphrodisiac.
• After the incident, Zoran feared that he would inadvertently get Sheila involved if the assassin continued pursuing him.
• He saved his contact number into Sheila's phone, while he himself desperately fled overseas.
• Over the past five years, Zoran had not returned to Clusia.
• However, through his own efforts and relentless struggle, he had already established his own organization overseas—Tartarus Syndicate.
• He had made a name for himself over the years and became the don of Tartarus Syndicate, known to many as Don Tartarus.
• There were thousands of subordinates under the command of Don Tartarus.
• Tartarus Syndicate, overseen by Don Tartarus himself, was also one of the top forces outside of Clusia that struck fear into the hearts of those who heard its name.
• “Sheila, five years ago, I did something that wronged you and nearly destroyed you. Five years later, I have established my own organization. I promise to dedicate my life to loving you and to protecting you. I want to make you the happiest woman in the world. Therefore, you must wait for me, you must stay alive. You mustn't let anything happen to you. Otherwise, I would be burdened with guilt for the rest of my life. As for our daughter, you mustn't let anything happen to you. Hang in there! Your father is coming to rescue you soon!” Zoran murmured to himself.
