Mandy really wanted Allegra to attend the reunion tomorrow. That way, she could deal a big blow to her and see if this ugly witch was still popular now.“I don’t care if he’s displeased. I’m not going to your reunion…”Isaac got up and walked over. “She’ll go. Give us the time and place.”He didn’t mean to intervene, but when she mentioned the Merck family, he felt something was off.When Mandy saw Isaac, she immediately knew who he was.“Okay, it’s settled, then. Miss Beautiful Allegra, I’ll see you tomorrow.” Mandy didn’t give Allegra the chance to speak before she turned around and left.“Why did you answer for me? You go to the reunion tomorrow, then. I’m not going.” Allegra shot Isaac a furious look, frowned, then left.Isaac smiled. “Are you not worried that if I go alone, I’ll get into a fight with them again?”“You violent thug, you’re going to end up in the hospital one day,” Allegra muttered as she entered the kitchen.The day passed quickly, and Allegra’s third-day
“I always speak my mind. Not to mention, I didn’t say anything wrong. If you’re smarter than Gregory, then you’d better shut your mouth!” Isaac slowly took out a cigarette and lit it.At the side, Mandy was crying from rage. William gritted his teeth. He pulled Mandy into his arms and shouted at Isaac, “Mandy is my woman. If you call her a beautified chamber pot, then you’re insulting me too, is that right?”Isaac let out a small laugh. “Someone who fucks a beautified chamber pot daily is a shit stick, no?”Allegra couldn’t stop herself from laughing out loud. Some people around the table almost burst out laughing too. They all covered their mouths as their bodies shook.William slammed his fist on the table. “Punk, it seems like you no longer want to live.”A bespectacled man stood up and tried to mediate the situation. “Come on, Mr. Merck, Mandy. Is it necessary to argue with a prisoner? Allegra is a disfigured hag, but she’s still our classmate. Since she has thick enough skin
Mandy began coughing violently, almost choking to death.The previously sneering classmates widened their eyes as if their eyeballs were about to fall out. They couldn’t believe that Allegra was still as beautiful. Wasn’t she supposed to be flawed?Especially William. The moment he saw Allegra’s face, saliva almost dripped out of his mouth. Desire filled his eyes, and he immediately changed his plan.He suddenly clapped and laughed. “How interesting. What a turn of events.” Allegra was still not used to showing her face. She lowered her head slightly, her right hand unconsciously gripping Isaac’s shirt.The pathetic life she had led, all the injustices she had suffered, and the unrealistic expectations she had received over the past few years had worn away her self-confidence and personality.Isaac swirled his wine glass. He looked at Mandy and the other woman, smiling. “You two kept throwing out the word “hag”, but I feel like when compared to Ally, you’re the true hags!”Alle
Allegra’s body began to fall toward the ground, but Isaac caught her. A look of panic flashed through his eyes, but he quickly calmed himself down.“You won’t die as long as I’m here.” His eyes were unbelievably gentle as he held Allegra.He turned to look at William, his expression frigid. “If anything happens to Ally, I will make you wish you were dead.”“Hah, even now, you dare to speak so arrogantly?” William burst out laughing instead. With a ferocious look, he smiled and said, “I have another glass of poisoned wine. If you don’t want your woman to die, drink it, and I’ll give you the antidote. However, there’s only one antidote!”Another man handed him a new glass of wine. William simultaneously took out a brown pill from his pocket, waving it in front of Isaac.From William’s point of view, Isaac only had two options now—watch his woman die or drink the poisoned wine. Everything was now in his control!Everyone’s gaze was transfixed on Isaac’s face. In front of him was ano
After Allegra took the antidote, her furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and her tightly shut eyes slowly opened.Seeing her teary eyes, Isaac felt a knife in his heart. He said softly, “Silly woman, never do that again.”The classmates watched as Isaac kneeled on the floor. Under Mandy’s instructions, the two men quickly came out from under the table and carried William into their arms.This man in front of them was indeed too scary. They all only had one thought—to get out.But just as they bolted toward the door, a burly figure suddenly appeared.Beefy Bob stood at the door, glaring at them. He shouted, “Get back in there!”The two men screamed in fright. They immediately dumped William onto the floor, turned around, and ran back to the table.Beefy Bob walked over to Isaac. He was aghast when he saw the blood at the corners of Allegra’s mouth. “Isaac, what happened?” Isaac pointed his finger at the people around the table and said coldly, “Take photos of them. Make sure thei
“Isaac, how could you inflict such injury on my nephew?” Allen pointed a finger at Isaac, his face dark with rage.“You should’ve listened to my words.” Isaac lit a cigarette and puffed on it as he looked at Allen.Craig was standing with one hand behind his back. He looked away from Isaac and asked Allen, “Mr. Merck, is this the man you’ve been telling me about? The one who caused your son’s death?”“It is,” said Allen through gritted teeth.Craig chuckled. “He’s arrogant indeed. I wonder if his abilities are as great as his ego.”Simon tugged at Craig’s shirt and begged, “Mr. Hughes, please save my son. You’ll have the Merck family's utmost gratitude if you get rid of that bastard.”Craig smiled as he turned to look at Allen.“Your help will be greatly appreciated, Mr. Hughes,” said Allen humbly.“Alright. Since you’ve spoken, I see no reason to decline.” With a huge leap, Craig landed in front of Isaac.Allen and Simon heaved a sigh of relief when Craig made his move. Besid
On seeing Craig’s move, Mr. Sutton, who was standing behind Allen, gave an icy look as he bellowed and rushed toward Isaac.Craig and Mr. Sutton swung their fists one after the other at Isaac. Their auras were menacing and threatening.Craig’s punch loomed. Just before the punch landed on him, Isaac swung out his leg and hit Craig in his abdomen.Craig was moving too fast to react on time. His punch stopped abruptly less than an inch from Isaac’s face.All Craig could feel was the cruciating pain in his abdomen. His eyes widened as his body flew backward. The pain was unbearable. Mr. Sutton, just a step behind, felt the power in Isaac’s kick and stopped subconsciously. He did not dare to take another step forward.“Argh!”A loud thump followed Craig’s shriek as his body flew like a ragdoll and bumped heavily against the glass door.With a loud crash, the glass door broke into pieces. Craig vomited blood and fainted.Mr. Sutton stood awkwardly a few feet away. He never thought
Isaac thought there was no need to pay heed to Margaret and Andrew, but Allegra could not just leave them be. She left the hotel even though she was exhausted.At the gates of Riverview Villa No. 5, Andrew and Margaret held some gifts in their hands. They looked at the emerging black Land Rover.Andrew squinted and said enviously, “That little bitch really sucked up to that punk, huh?”“Hold your tongue. We’re here to ask for forgiveness, so you’d better behave nicely. When this ungrateful girl enters our company and comes to your grandfather’s birthday celebration, we can go hard with her,” scolded Margaret. As the Land Rover approached, Margaret put on a warm smile.It was not Margaret’s idea to come here today. Randall asked her to, saying he had other plans for Isaac.Allegra hated Margaret and Andrew for what they did. But now that everything had settled, her heart softened, as most children would.As soon as Allegra got down from the car, Margaret went up to her and held he
