Chapter 2: The Present

5 years later…

Charles Debrun's POV

I don't know what went wrong. I was in the right place for everything to be perfect. My wedding to Sophia, my lab was successful and I was building an empire when Sabrina Dubois and her boyfriend, Nathan White destroyed everything.

I was coughing as I was running outside the lair as it was about to self-destruct. I don't know what came over me as I was dizzy all over before a voice came into my eardrums.

'Hello, doctor,' a familiar voice was calling at me. I looked up to see who was it but I cannot make it out as she was wearing a fedora. She took off the fedora before she threw it away.

'It never looked good on me. I just did that for the dramatic entrance,' her British accent was showing in her talk as she was coming at me.

'You? I thought you were,' I said before I was interrupted by her.
