Everyone was shocked when they heard Walter say that. They turned to stare at him.However, Walter had meant every word he said, and it was not a spur-of-the-moment thing. The two 5-star generals he knew were at least 70 years old and were still very skilled and powerful. If Isaac really were the third 5-star general, Walter would be no match for him.Isaac calmly reached into his breast pocket and took out a gold seal half the size of his palm. Then, he told Walter, “See if this is the seal you’re looking for.”Walter’s mind went blank as soon as he saw it.Hunter’s eyes doubled in size; he was so shocked that he almost stood up from his wheelchair.“It can’t be the real seal. It’s fake! Walter, tell your army to kill him immediately!” Warwick screamed.Fake? Who dared to create a fake eagle-shaped seal? If anyone found out, it meant certain death for the liar and his entire bloodline!Walter shuddered profoundly and looked at Warwick. He said with gritted teeth, “Warwick! Why did you
“Hurry, let’s leave now!” Horace stared at the bodies as he scrambled to his feet. He hurried out of the house, wanting to go as far away from the bloody scene as possible.In the car, Horace tried wiping his sweat with some paper napkins. “Just how powerful can a 5-star general be? Even Walter had to kill himself in front of him. He’s fucking scary.”“I’m not sure. Maybe he is quite powerful after all,” Patrick said with a frown.“This Isaac was a wolf in sheep’s clothing all along.” Horace gritted his teeth.Patrick paused momentarily before asking, “Are you really planning to leave Southland, as he said? I think there’s any real need to do so.”“What do you mean, Mr. Bleu?” Horace immediately turned to look at Patrick.“I may not understand what it’s like in the army for him, but after what he pulled at Divine Fists School, he’s made a grave mistake. There’s a huge difference between the martial and modern worlds.”Horace perked up. “Are you talking about the Astraeus?”Patrick nodd
Edward came out with a condescending look on his face. Willow, Margaret, and Andrew wore similar expressions as they followed Edward out.“Andrew, why did you send Bella to those bad guys? Were you trying to get her killed?” Allegra’s eyes turned red. She was still traumatized by the event.Andrew laughed coldly. “What bad guys? I don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about.”“Allegra, I can’t believe you still have the guts to come here after Isaac’s death. Are you sure your brain is still there?” Edward asked coolly as he sat down on a chair. He took a sip of his tea.“Honestly, I think it’s a fair exchange for your precious daughter to die in return for my family’s peace and quiet.”Allegra got so angry hearing this that she started to tremble. She pointed at Edward and yelled, “You fucking bastard! You’re worse than the Devil himself! Where is your conscience?”“How dare you raise your voice at me, you fucking bitch? I’m going to rip your tongue out!” Edward said with a slap to t
Thump! Thump!Isaac bounced the bat on his hand as he walked over toward Edward.“Isaac, what the fuck are you trying to do? Let me go! Get your fucking hands off me!” Edward roared.“If you dare to hit me now, the Owens will never forgive you! The Owens have promised us protection. We’re working together now. Get the fuck away from me!”Alec watched as Isaac menacingly walked toward his son. He pointed at Isaac and yelled, “If you dare to—”Thwack!The baseball bat hit Edward squarely and heavily on his ankle.“Fuck!” Edward tensed and screamed in pain as he started to tremble.Alec’s eyes doubled in size. Margaret, on the other hand, covered her eyes in fright.Isaac lifted the baseball bat again and swung it at Edward’s other ankle.Crack!“Fuck!”Edward fell to the floor and started spasming in pain, screaming like a pig about to be slaughtered.“Now that I’ve hit you, what will you do about it? The Owens family doesn’t even exist anymore,” Isaac said, turning to look at Alec.Andr
The girl kept looking at Isaac with her huge eyes. Isaac kneeled and asked, “Little girl, do you know where your home is?”The girl shook her head and said nothing.“Do you know your parents’ names?” Isaac asked, feeling a little helpless.The girl dipped her head and pressed her lips together. Her eyes teared as she said, “Dead.”“Mister, can we let Robin stay? She doesn’t have a family anymore. Can she stay with us forever?” Isabella asked, tugging at Isaac’s hand.“I can’t promise you that. Robin may still have other family members around, you know?” Isaac said with a smile as he shook his head.Where did this girl come from? Who else was in her family? He had to make sure of that first.Isaac sent a message to Beefy Bob, asking him to find out the girl’s background.As he walked into the living room, Eugene brought two chickens from the kitchen. He caught sight of Isaac and the others and immediately smiled, saying, “You’re back! We have chicken for dinner today. These are both leg
“Wait, how is this possible? It was a huge, luxurious mansion! And there were so many servants at the house too! How…”“There’s a rumor that the Owens family offended a powerful figure, and this was the outcome. Do you think it might have something to do with Isaac?”Edward laughed loudly and said, “Isaac? He’s nothing. It has got to be an accident. But what a pity! Our only hope to get rid of Isaac is the Kenne family.”He said, “By the way, Randall, I’m going to need your help dealing with Pegasus No. 1. I’ve got the signed documents from that bitch Allegra to say she’s giving up the procurement of that land.” Edward then removed the documents from under his pillow and gave them to Randall.At the same time, at a high-end club in Aurum County, Wilson sat on a large, comfortable couch as he asked his assistant coldly, “Has everything been arranged for tonight?”The assistant hurriedly nodded. “Everything has been arranged. We found one of Mr. Marsh’s old college friends, and she’s agr
Louis then called his parents and learned that his son had been in an accident and was still in the ICU. They also told him about the breaking news online.He was utterly dumbfounded when he searched the news articles online.As the chief secretary of Southland, he had no idea how his boss would react to this kind of news. However, he was sure he’d never be able to return to his job again.The most important thing to an official was their reputation. It was the main reason so many officials walked on eggshells; they needed to protect themselves and their privacy.When he got to the hospital, Louis caught sight of his wife, who looked weak and exhausted. However, she slapped him across the face before he could open his mouth.“You animal! Aren’t you happily fucking another woman? How do you even have the courage to come back here?” His wife cried angrily at him and fell to the floor in sobs.Louis could feel the devastation in her cries.“Dear, you have to believe me! I was framed! It’s
“Here, why don’t you get up first? Ally, take the kids into the house, please.” Isaac frowned as he helped Wendy up.After hearing Wendy’s story, Isaac looked at her and asked, “Do you believe that your husband is that kind of person?”Wendy shook her head and sobbed, “I was furious at first, but it didn’t make sense when I thought more about it. He rarely goes out at night, and even if he does, he doesn’t drink alcohol. He said that he’s a public official, so he has to take great care to maintain his and his employer’s reputation.”She continued, “Without being so careful, he wouldn’t have been able to stay in his position for the last two years. He doesn’t even take cigarettes from other people, let alone a sum of money. Mr. Garten, I believe that Louis was framed. But now, they’ve taken him away!”“It’s fine as long as you believe in your husband. Let’s go over to the Internal Affairs office, then. We’ll get him out,” Isaac said with a nod.Wendy was a teacher. She wasn’t well-conne
