That had indeed been Colbyâs initial thrill.
He ran a few steps toward Kyson and shouted, âKyson, Iâve changed my mind.
You should lose.
Besides, if not for Uncle Sonnyâs mercy, youâd have already lost!â
Upon hearing this, Kyson no longer attempted to rise.
He lay back on the ground, gazing up at the sky with a look of exhaustion and pain, yet he was smiling.
It was a smile of relief.
He had suspected that Colby added the extra punishment not because he wanted Kyson to win, but to see him push himself to the Limit and ultimately be defeated by Sonny.
This was his ordeal, orchestrated by fate.
Colby was indeed like his father-cunning and strategic.
With a resigned chuckle, Kyson coughed and declared, âI lost.
â
Sonny, wiping blood from his mouth, unaware that he was merely a tool in this game, stepped forward and offered Kyson a hand.

Kyson looked up at him and reached out, grasping Sonnyâs hand.
âCan you stand up okay?â
Kyson responded lightly, âYes.
Iâm still alive.
â
âWhy must you be so severe? Starting tomorrow, youâre my lackey.
Show some respect to your boss,â Sonny declared, embracing his role.
Kyson grinned.
âAlright.
â
Leaning on Sonny for support, Kyson hobbled toward the basketball courtâs exit, where Lucinda, Nathan, and Destinee were waiting.
Destinee wriggled free from Nathanâs grasp and dashed to Kyson, bombarding him with questions about his well-being due to her concern.
Nathanâs expression soured.
He was already displeased when his wife had taken Kysonâs side, and now his daughter was showing him sympathy as well.
Nathan felt his position was being undermined.
Sonny noticed Nathanâs displeased look.
âNathan, whatâs the problem?â
With a stern glance, Nathan remarked coldly, âAs the deputy director of the National Security Bureau, you were injured by Kyson, who hasnât trained in years.
Thatâs embarrassing.
So, youâll also wear a skirt and clean the restrooms for a month.
â
âihat?!â Sonny gasped.
Taken aback by Nathanâs directive, Sonny was at a loss.
Why was he being punished like the loser? It was such an unfortunate situation!
With a glum expression, he protested, âNathan, this is unfair.
