"Huh?" Jordan is taken aback by Daisy's assumption. The idea that he might have been interested in Vanessa in that way catches him completely off guard. He can't help but find her interpretation of the situation rather bewildering, especially considering the fact that Vanessa didn't have a very nice first impression on him."What do you mean by 'huh'?" Daisy retorts with a furrowed brow, snapping him out of his reverie. "Someone suddenly barged in on us out of nowhere, and instead of getting angry that she did such a thing and disrupted our private moment, you remarked that you had been expecting her! I don't know what you think but to me that can only mean you had some prior interest in her! Otherwise, why would you say that?"Jordan smiles wryly and softly caresses her cheek, retorting, "You are misunderstanding things. Besides, if I were to 'eye' someone, wouldn't it be reasonable for me to set my sights on someone even more beautiful than you, or at least on par with you?"Daisy'
"Uhm, Jordan, for my sake, can you help?" After Vanessa's departure, Daisy's conscience gets the better of her. She looks at Jordan with a plea in her eyes, hoping he'll reconsider his stance."But if I could help them, why would you want me to do so, considering all their impulsive attitudes and actions towards you?" Jordan asks impassively.Left to his own devices, he really wouldn't hesitate to let Jasper and the others face the consequences of their actions.Daisy's voice is tinged with a mix of emotions as she calmly explains, "No matter what, we share a history, so many years. I can't just forget about all that and turn my back on them. You don't have to hide it, I know you can help. Please do. "Besides, Vanessa is heading back there, and if she gets involved, it could lead to more trouble. For both her sake and mine, could you please help? Please?" She grabs his hands and batters her eyelashes at him.Sighing in surrender, Jordan acknowledges the weight of Daisy's request. She
Under the intense gaze of everyone, Jordan strides confidently towards Deathpool and his underlings and stops right in front of them, a subtle smile on his cute face as he leans on the wall and casts Deathpool a glance, seemingly waiting for a response. As Deathpool's cold and aloof gaze drops to Jordan, the unexpected interloper, his face suddenly loses color, his eyes narrow, and an uneasy feeling creeps up his heart. Though the young man before him looks casual and with no extraordinary touch to him, his voice carries commanding weight so far superior to his bosses and there's an unfathomable eerie aura radiating from him. 'Uhm,' he swallows silently, a chill running down his spine, straight to his bone marrow.It takes him a few minutes to compose himself before he gazes back at Jordan and asks with his guard up, "Who are you?""Who I am depends on who you want to meet," Jordan replies nonchalantly, his smile unwavering. "I believe you have planned so much for these girls and ar
There's pin-drop silence as everyone in the room tries to figure out what just happened.But even after racking their brains for so many minutes, none of them can come up with what exactly happened. This is clearly because they only have the idea that Jordan casually flicked his finger and the tattooed man suddenly dropped dead.There's no how he could have used magic, right? So what the hell did he use? Their eyes are as wide as saucers and their jaws are literally dropping to the floor."Why are you guys moping like goats?" Jordan hisses as several minutes pass and the lots in the room wouldn't still react, instead they keep gaping at him."Jordan... I mean, uh, sir, what did you do to him?" Suppressing her shock a bit, Vanessa asks, staring inquisitively at Jordan."I sent him to hell to show his boss who is in charge here," Jordan mumbles indifferently with a shrug of his shoulder. "And by the way, you can just call me Jordan. 'Sir' coming from you makes me feel old.""What?!" At
"Hmph! As if there's any other identity to you than the one I already know," Deathpool suddenly retorts with a snort. "And no one gives me orders! I'm taking the girls away with me and that's the end of it. "No one! I mean, not even you or the celestial being above can stop me! You might have some tricks under your sleeve but since that is all there is to you, you are nothing to me! For taking the life of my subordinate, you'll pay dearly!""Punk, you've managed to make an enemy of Deathpool! How brave of you!" Jasper taunts with a grin. "You might not know it but Deathpool is a subordinate of Black Dragon and Black Dragon is a subordinate of Mr. Lorenzo Capone, the Mafia boss. Now that you've crossed his bottom line, you are definitely going to meet your end soon!" If Jasper had spoken to him, Jordan doesn't give him the leisure of any reaction as he completely ignores him, and directs his attention to Deathpool, asking instead, "Are you truly this dense? Fine, let's humor the ide
"Daisy, you're here!" Vanessa exclaims excitedly, relief washing over her. "Quick, order your guards to stop those men! They're moving to attack Jordan!""Who dares lay a hand on my man?!" Daisy bellows, her voice transforming from her typically gentle demeanor into a fierce roar. The shift is startling, like a cute pet morphing into a ferocious beast. "John, take them down!" She doesn't hesitate to issue commands."Understood, Princess," John responds with utmost respect, turning to the other guards. "Attack!""Yes!" The guards launch into action, darting at the two henchmen. However, before they even reach their targets, an eerie stillness overtakes them, and they collapse to the floor, lifeless and unmoving."What?!" Confusion passes among the guards as they exchange bewildered glances. They haven't even reached the henchmen and yet they suddenly dropped dead. "They're already dead, Princess," John reports back to Daisy, his confusion so blatantly visible in his eyes."But I thou
"Ah!"THUD!As Deathpool cries out in anguish, his knees hit the floor with a loud thud, the impact resounding like a proclamation of his surrender. Deathpool, the formidable and mighty Mafia was kneeling before Jordan! Such an astonishing sight!"Wow," Vanessa gasps in awe. Who would have predicted that Jordan could humble the fearsome Deathpool, a figure that once held them all in check and gave them scruples? "Now, that's how a real man should be," She casts a glance at Penelope, quoting her earlier words.Daisy gazes at Jordan with a mixture of admiration and possessiveness. "My man," she asserts proudly, her voice exuding conviction."Now, speak. Why should I spare your life?" Jordan's tone remains frigid, demanding an explanation."Be... Because, no matter what, I am Deathpool. Even though you might have the power to challenge me, you can't afford to provoke my superior, Black Dragon! If you dare to end me, he will relentlessly pursue you to the ends of the earth!""Is that all?
"Whatever you heard is true," Chris doesn't beat around as he responds with a sad sigh. "I shouldn't say more than that as this is top secret but considering your relationship with Black Dragon, I might as well let you know that earlier today, the Mafia boss gave order for Black Dragon's assassination. Indeed, Black Dragon is dead!""But why?! Why?!" Deathpool gasps, incredulity lacing his voice. "Why would the Mafia boss do that?""Well, from what I've been able to gather, it turns out Black Dragon offended who he couldn't afford to provoke, someone even the Mafia boss himself can't afford to provoke so the Mafia boss had no other option but to order his assassination to appease the formidable figure. This is all I know."Deathpool slowly glances up at Jordan, his tone quivering as he asks, "Perhaps, is this formidable figure a young man in his twenties?""I really can't say. Not like I don't want to tell you but I don't know. His identity is confidential," Chris replies diplomatical
