At the same time, somewhere else in the city.Tenzin’s car that she had stolen from Jim stopped outside Drake’s restaurant. “Is this the place that Jim owns?” She looked out through the window and saw the restaurant.“No, ma’am,” the driver replied. He was a teenager, someone she recently hired after surviving a killing game where he was the last man standing among 100 fighters. “The report said that he used to own the place, and then he sold it away to someone else for some personal reasons.”“Personal reasons, huh… Then I will just buy it and gift it to Jim once he joins the brotherhood,” Tenzin stepped out of the car. It was dusk at the time, but she was still wearing sunglasses just because she wanted to.The teenager also stepped out. “Do you want me to come with you, ma’am?”“Nah, I’ll handle this myself,” Tenzin said and entered the restaurant. She didn’t even look around and went straight to the center table where a couple was enjoying their time. “I want this table, so go som
Gabe returned to Drake's restaurant, looking completely alright.Bertha saw him and raised her voice at him, “Gabe, why did you leave in the middle of eating? I was thinking about removing the plates from the table!”“Sorry. I had some business, so I went out and took care of it,” Gabe said.“You can’t just leave before you finish the meal,” Bertha harrumphed. “What is Mia teaching you? Clearly, you are still as carefree and spoiled as ever.”Gabe smiled to himself but said nothing. He sat down and resumed eating.Bertha eventually came to the table and said, “Did Mia tell you about what I told her?”“About the previous owner of this restaurant, right?”“Yeah, their family member has been harassing me,” Bertha said. “They are a decently rich family. I think they do finance business. So obviously, they are very good at sucking people’s blood and sweat. And now, they want to buy this restaurant for a cheap price. She quoted a 2 million dollar price. Can you believe that? This could easi
Solomon and Keith came to Lola’s house to see Rena now that she had come home.Rena received them well and talked with them for a long time, even though she herself wasn’t in a good mood.They asked about Shiney because she wasn’t present. Rena told them she must have gone outside.Nobody else was home, so Rena couldn’t cook for these two guests even if she wanted to. And she felt helpless and couldn’t help but think of how granted she took Jim for.Jim was always the one who cooked for the family. In the past, it was Marc who cooked for the family. So, Rena grew up in an environment watching his dad cook for the family, so she didn’t think anything was bad when Jim took over her father’s role.However, right now, when she realized that she couldn’t cook for her best friends, she felt a bit pathetic.She was beginning to realize just how selfishly she had been living, without even being fully aware of it.When she was about to order food from the outside, Keith stopped her and then to
Rena noticed Shiney clenching her left fist and said, “I can’t give him to you even if you beat me to death. Please accept that and move on, Shiney.”“Shut your trap!” Shiny threw her fist at an angle and struck the door behind her. “Did you come here only to provoke me? You think I don’t know how selfish you are. I’m not at all surprised that you said you won’t give Jim. I’d have been shocked if you had actually said you’d give Jim to me. But you would never say that because you always received the best of everything.“Mom would bring you the best dress, and after you wear it for a season, she would then give it to me and tell me to wear it. From my childhood bicycle to even the bed I sleep on was once used by you! Even for my birthdays, she would not buy me gold, but would give me the gold ornaments she bought for you. I always received second-hand things. And you’ve even taken the only man I ever loved!” Her eyes were clouded with tears. “You have no idea how much I’m controlling m
“It doesn’t make sense because you’re too damn weak!” Stanley jumped at her. “Now die!”Even though he was a big guy, he was so fast Little Nightmare couldn’t react in time. Only her eyes could follow his fist coming at her chest. She thought his fist was going to leave a big hole in her chest. She thought she was going to die.But her sister kicked Stanley’s ribs and stopped him.She intended to send him flying, but she only managed to make him take a step back.Stanley caught her foot and tried to twist her leg and break it, but she spun through the air and kicked his chin. It was not an ordinary kick but one with a lot of air pressure put behind it.It left a bruise on his chin. And Stanley let go of her foot and scratched his chin.“What a tough body…” Nightmare_lily felt pain in her foot with which she had kicked him. “Are you made out of diamond or something?”“Jubilee family members naturally have strong bodies, and on top of that, we train day and night till we turn 13 years o
Giles or Glint Diablo Demona was in his pyramid-like glass building, being oil-massaged by four handsome young men. And he was nude.“This is what I’ve been missing lately. The touch of a woman doesn’t hold a candle to the touch of a man,” Giles said. “Keep squeezing my muscles and pressing my nerves. Impress me more, and the four of you will receive a butt-full of pleasure later on.”His words made the men work with all the more vigor.Just then, Giles mobile rang.“Tsk, who is calling now?” he glanced at the mobile which was on the desk about twenty feet away.The mobile flew over and floated before him.“Ho…” he was surprised to see that it was the president calling. He answered the call. “What is it, Jensen?”“I heard that you put one of my people in one of your nasty dungeons,” Jensen was neither polite nor disrespectful, just like how Giles treated him.“Your people? Who is it?”“His name is Jim Drake,” Jensen said. “He’s a very important person, so I want you to find him and re
Old Blue looked down and saw a burst of golden light filling the hole, and soon Jim came soaring up like a rocket.Jim burst out of the hole and landed on the ground, huffing and puffing. His head was covered in his own blood. But his eyes were very much open and locked onto Old Blue.“You look so beaten already,” Old Blue was smiling with his lips down, which was his way of mocking Jim. “And here I thought you would entertain me a little.”Jim gritted his teeth and leaped forth.“Embrace,” Old Blue uttered.And an immense pressure suddenly pressed Jim down, making him feel as if there was a mountain on his shoulders.“What the hell is this?” Jim bled from the nose. “Increased gravity? I feel a thousand times heavier!”“Gravity?” Old Blue snorted. “There’s no such thing as gravity. I’m just oppressing you with my demonic energy, that you clearly can’t see.”“Demonic energy?” Jim’s eyes looked up, and he couldn’t see anything. He focused spiritual vivre into his eyes, and he was now ab
Jim cloaked his arms with spiritual vivre and punched at Old Blue who comfortably kept blocking all of his attacks. He was able to match Jim’s speed, even though he could move faster and dodge his attacks.Jim tried not to look frustrated because every time he hit Old Blue, it felt like he was hitting hardened metal. Even though his body looked old and weak, it was extremely sturdy, whether it be his skin, flesh, or bone. Jim could very much feel that.“Just what is your body made out of?” Jim asked.“It’s a mixture of iron of clay,” Old Blue stepped closer.Jim immediately punched at his chest, but his fest went right through the chest.Old Blue’s claw came onto Jim’s face.Jim desperately dodged it, but his claw still managed to cut his right ear off, which immediately made him remember the time Stanely shot through his ear. And his adrenaline rushed like never before.His left hand rose from underneath and targeted Old Blue’s ribs.Even though Old Blue’s body was now transparent, a
