As Devin's Porsche caroused into the underground garage of the Le Grande villa, several guests trooped into the large, square-shaped auditorium mounted just besides the mansion.

It was Amanda and Luther's wedding, barely three days after she broke up with Devin. 

“Why won't this damn car start? I have to drive out to get something for my daughter!” Devin heard Sera's voice as he stepped down from the Porsche.

Her back was turned to him but he couldn't miss the croaking sound of her voice. 

“Are you sure you know what the fuck you're doing? Top shot mechanic my ass! If you were so good, this car would be working by now!” She snapped at the gentle man who was fixing the car for her. 

Devin sighed while he gazed at them. As he didn't want to interfere, he proceeded to walk to his mansion. But Sera turned around, saw him and scoffed.

“ Devin? My God! What the fuck are you doing here? You really have no shame! ” Sera snapped as she approached him, clapping her hands in exaggeration.

Devin stopped and turned around to take in her twisted face.

“I’m not in the mood for your bickerings today, Sera. Go back to your mechanic while he fixes your car,” Devin replied to her and turned to leave.

But Sera quickly blocked his path and crossed her arms, her eyes darkening on the spot.

“How dare a church rat like yourself speak to me in that manner? Who the hell invited you to this wedding? This is no place for a poverty-stricken degenerate lowlife like you!” Sera yelled at him.

“What is so hard to understand in the fact that Amanda has dumped your lazy ass? And now you resorted to stalking? How shameless could you be!”

“That’s a big word coming from you. Your daughter is marrying a man old enough to be her father and you're supporting her. Your desperate, sorry self would do anything for some money, even if it means selling off your child to the highest bidder,” Devin shot back at her.

Sera gasped at his audacity. “Motherfucker! Do not speak to me in that manner. Luther is ten times the man you'll ever be in your sorry life!”

“Have you heard yet? Yvonne Hall, the owner of the number 1 luxury building in this Villa specially sent Luther a wedding gift. She approved his request to use this top-class auditorium for the wedding too!”

“Luther dines with the rich and powerful in the society. But what do you do? Louse around like a hopeless beggar, looking for who to stalk! Perhaps I should get you arrested for this insolence!” She screamed at him.

Devin laughed after he listened to her words. Obviously, Luther was playing them for a fool. He had approved their request to use the hall and sent Yvonne to deliver the letter. The money Luther paid was given to charity.

And Devin sent no fucking gifts to Luther. Neither did he instruct Yvonne to do so.

“Wow. I'm so amazed I could piss myself! For someone who prides herself in being 'smart’ you really are dumb. So dumb that you cannot distinguish reality from deceit,” Devin replied to her and laughed again.

His laugher was like a knife piercing through Sera heart. She gritted her teeth while she watched him, her chest heaving up and down.

“Go back your little event, Sera. Be the mother of the bride and enjoy the turmoil that follows. It is what you deserve after all,” Devin dismissed her and turned to leave, but Sera, yet again, blocked his path and attempted to slap him.

Devin caught her hand as anger flashed in his eyes. Sera saw this instant glow of distaste and her heart skipped a beat.

But God forbid her to show she was scared of him!

“You animal! Fucking dirt bag! You dare raise your hand on me? I will make sure you rot in jail for this!” Sera yelled at Devin while he lowered her hand, but she began to squirm.

“Do not test me, Sera!” Devin said in a calm, threatening tone that made Sera whimper.

“Or what? What will you do? Beat me up like you beat up my son? Come on Devin, I fucking dare you! Then you'd spend the rest of your life dining and dancing with pigs in a dungeon!” She kept yelling at him.

With a growl, Devin let go of her hand and she staggered back, lost her balance and fell.

“Ah! Help! Somebody help me! He wants to kill me! Help!!” Sera screamed while she stood to her feet. The mechanic, who had seen everything, quietly left the garage, but as Sera kept shouting, two bouncers ran in.

“Ma'am? What's going on here?” One of the bouncers asked Sera who burst into tears immediately.

“I'm the mother of the bride. This man is an intruder. No one invited him to this wedding yet, here he is. He's my daughter's ex. He just beat me up right now!” She cried out.

The bouncer, furious, turned to Devin.

“Scumbag, show me your invitation, or I'll kick you out of this place!” 

“I'm not here for the event anyway. I'm just going home,” Devin replied to the bouncer and Sera gasped

“That's a lie. He has no home here. This fucking street urchin couldn't even afford a shit hole in this place. It's obvious he wants to steal. Kick him out!” Sera quickly protested.

The bouncers nodded in agreement while they glared at Devin's casual gym outfits, convinced he couldn't possibly be a top shot resident in the villa.

Just then, Sera's phone rang. 

“My daughter needs me. Ensure you kick this vermin out of this place. Else, he'll ruin things and it'll be your problem!” Sera added and walked away.

“Time for you to leave, ass-wipe. You should have known better than to sneak into this event,” one of the bouncer said and grabbed Devin's shoulder.

But Devin kicked his hand away, and punched him in the face. 

“You broke my fucking nose!” The bouncer cried out while the other, furious, charged at Devin.

Devin performed a sweep move and knocked the bouncer off the ground. While he fell with a thud, the other one took out his baton.

“You're dead now!” He yelled and charged at Devin. 

Devin quickly disarmed him, kicked him again, and punched him so hard he flew right into a car– a faint yellow wave of energy radiating from Devin's fist.

The bouncer was knocked out immediately.

“Fuck this. I'm outta here!” The other bouncer ran away as he saw the terrifying scene.

Devin exhaled as he walked away from the garage. 

He wanted to go home directly, but he forgot that the auditorium was right on his way home. 

Which means that when he realized it, Luther had already gotten so close that he was right in front of him.

"What the hell are you doing here?"

    "No way, you still haven't gotten over Amanda? Are you going to go in front of her and cry and beg for forgiveness?" Luther laughed and sized up Devin with a playful look in his eyes."Actually, it's not impossible for you to see her if you really insist.""Enough!" Devin interrupted him. "I'm not here for her. I'm going home!"Luther burst out laughing as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world. "You're still being stubborn, aren't you?""Since I'm in a good mood today, I'll let you meet Amanda."

Upgrade to marrying a man old enough to be your dad?” Devin said to her face, and she scoffed. “Who is this man to the bride?” “How do they know each other?” “Shut your fucking mouth! This is the last time you raise your hands on my family!” Amanda screamed at Devin who scoffed. “I never wanted to be here anyways. Have a great wedding,” Devin said with sarcasm, and turned to leave, but Amanda suddenly blocked his path."Kneel down and apologize! Otherwise, I won't let you walk out of here alive, you son of a bitch!" Amanda yelled at Devin who laughed at her words. “You are digging your own fucking grave!” Devin shot back at her.

    Devin's lips curled into a smile, his fingers clenched the ornate box he was holding. Inside lay a dazzling necklace- his late mother's heirloom, unseen by anyone else, a gift for his precious fiancee Amanda. “Amanda deserves the best. Giving her this necklace would further prove my love for her,” Devin affirmed, convinced that his beautiful fiancee would appreciate this token of love. Although the wedding was still a few days away, Devin had returned home early that night to surprise Amanda. He worked in a humble factory as a coordinator, but despite his meager earnings, Devin always made sure he provided everything he could for Amanda, especially when she told him that she was carrying his child. The screeching of a car outside told Devin that Amanda was back. He rushed to the window to take a sneak peek at his beautiful bride, but his smile soon faded as his eyes saw the horror! Amanda, with sheer lace bodysuit, was deepthroating a stranger's cock! Her big tits were spilling ou

Can’t you try harder, sugar baby...” Devin mocked.“... Or did sleeping with that slut turn you into a slut too.” Devin said with provocation.But the next second, he was kicked to the ground by Luther. “You are done! Mr.Luther will make you regret being born into this world!” Amanda glared at him fiercely.“Who the fuck do you think you're talking to?” Luther stepped on Devin's face, and the immense pain made Devin roar in anger. "You son of a bitch! Get the fuck off!".But Luther pressed him even harder, he could even hear the sound of his own bones breaking. “What a ridiculous joke! Look at you,broke, beaten up, and in the end, you'll become a homeless stray dog.” Amanda laughed as

Sera rushed forward and helped her son who was sitting on the ground to his feet. The heartache in her eyes condensed into a long spear, and in the next second, she was ready to impale Devin to pieces.
