Chapter 660 – Gone
Lux stepped forward.
He didn't run. Didn't lunge. He didn't need to.
He simply reached out… and placed a hand on Vincent's shoulder.
Firm. Gentle.
Vincent barely felt it.
But suddenly?
He felt… wrong.
His limbs weren't cold. He wasn't dizzy. No pain. No physical sensation.
But something was missing.
Gone.
A sliver of soul? No.
A whisper of luck? Maybe.
Or just that primal sense of stability… that anchor that told you the world was still under your feet.
And then… Ping!
His phone vibrated.
That specific tone.
The one everyone in finance knew.
That high-pitched, gut-punch chime from his investment app.
The bad one.
The "you're fucked now" one.
Vincent fumbled the phone from his pocket with sweaty fingers, unlocking it with a stuttered face scan.
And there it was.
Red.
Everywhere.
His assets… plummeting.
Crypto holdings? Gone.
Liquid cash? Vanished.
Portfolio? Free-falling like a cursed rollercoaster.
