Cynthia staggered as if she could fall, regretting listening to them."Mom, how could you do that? Why did you hate him so much that you framed him?" she asked, finding it hard to breathe."I did this because of you. He doesn't deserve you. He's just a playboy. His family even denied him. He has nothing in his name. He just affiliates with rich people while he isn't rich," Mrs. Lucas said."Is that the reason you framed him? You even faked your tears, you made it look so real, Mom," she muttered."You see, Harry is in the state and will be coming back for you. It won't be good if he sees you and Mlynar together. Harry is the person you deserve," Mrs. Lucas claimed, walking slowly toward her daughter and holding her hand."See, I am doing this because of you. I want the best for you. I want you to be higher than them. That Mlynar will just keep dragging you back," Mrs. Lucas said."Mom! This is about me, not yours. It is my decision and choice. You don't choose for me or tell me what to
Cellinina was not herself after witnessing the intimacy between Mlynar and Cynthia. All this while, she had been deceiving herself that she didn't care about Mlynar, but deep down, she was in love with him.She gulped down the last cup of the fourth bottle, and Lapland stayed far away, watching her inside the bar. She ordered her so that she wanted to be alone.She ordered the fifth bottle and was about to drink when a hand stopped her by holding her hand.She looked up, and it was Zhing who looked at her with an annoyed face."What are you doing here?" she snapped at him."Iapland called me," he answered. Cellinina shot a gaze at her, and she immediately withdrew from the scene.She faced Zhing back, "I told Lapland I don't want any disturbance.""So, I am a disturbance?""Yeah, you are disturbing me," she gave him a simple and straight answer."Mmm, okay… but don't you think you are being stupid for doing this, doing this for a man that doesn't even consider you," Zhing said, and th
The knife was stuck right in his face, just a slight space away from the eyes, and he couldn't even see; he just kept groaning.Jasmine stood up and used the opportunity to give him a kick; the man flung away. Jasmine then walked slowly to where the man was and removed the knife as blood gushed out; the man shrieked in pain more loudly."Tell me who sent you and I will spare you," he bargained. The man just kept rolling on the ground. Jasmine, who has turned to ruthlessness, lifted his knife and was about to stab him, but Lapland held his hand."You shouldn't do that here; everyone is looking," she said. The man took the opportunity and threw out a small aura ball which later turned to smoke. The people nearby coughed, and before the smoke could clear out, the man had already vanished. “That bastard is a cultivator, probably in an iron stage,” Lapland said, then faced Jasmine, “Are you okay?” she asked.“You should worry about yourself,” he said, pointing at her bleeding elbow; it wa
The fight took place in the opening area of the compound. The fight began and Mlynar summoned his celestial sword, its ethereal glow illuminating With a thunderous clash, Luggard lunged forward, his movements fluid as he weaved through Mlynar's attempts to defend himself. Mlynar, fueled by desperation, swung his celestial sword with all his might, but Luggard effortlessly weaved it all and gave him a couples of heat punchesDespite Mlynar's best efforts, Luggard's mastery of the martial arts proved too much to overcome. Luggard then stepped back and weaved a spell that made Mlynar drop the heavenly sword, leaving him defenceless against the onslaught of Luggard's relentless attacks.Mlynar was amazed; he didn’t see how luggard could be this powerful. He stepped back, and palm called his sword again, this time, he used his inner gi, and summoned the last aura in him, he then displayed the mastery art of the AETHER WEAVING. As Mlynar summoned his inner strength, a shimmering aura
Cellinina stood up and walked toward her. Lapland was terrified because she had not seen her with such an expression before. Cellinina then grabbed her shoulder, and her face turned like she wanted to cry."Uh... what's wrong?" Lapland asked, confused.With a shaky voice, she lamented, "How could you, how could you leave me with Zhing when in my drunken state when you know how I used to misbehave when drunk?""I was called urgently, and I told him just to take you inside, what did he do?" Lapland was serious, but Cellinina was just scared if she had done something wrong because she could remember her dragging Zhing closer to her on the bed and kissing him, she told Lapland."What! You had sex with him, a pure virgin like you!" Lapland teased her."Stop, this is not a joke, I am serious here, what if we actually had sex?" Cellinina wondered aloud; she would be ashamed of herself if that happened."It's okay, that will save you from being a virgin," Lapland teased again. Cellinina gazed
The receptionist stood her ground, unwavering in her response. "No matter who you are, everyone is treated equally here. The CEO has instructed you to wait for him. Please, just for a few minutes."Harry's breaths came heavily, his frustration evident. "Don't tell me that. Are you suggesting that I, along with the other commoners here, are equals?"Oliver stepped in, attempting to calm Harry down given his known anger issues.He placed his hand on Harry's shoulder, his voice calming, "Calm down, let's tackle this another day."Harry, his determination palpable and his frustration evident, slammed his hand on the table once more, declaring, "In case you don't know me, I'm Harry from Switzerland!" His voice echoed through the room, drawing the attention of both patrons and staff. His name carried weight, recognized by all. Even the receptionist was visibly taken aback."Um... sorry," she stammered, "but how can you prove it?"Harry swiftly produced his ID card, displaying it to the rece
As Mlynar's voice echoed through the air, the anticipation on his face was evident as he called out, "Cellinina!" Delight danced in his eyes at the sight of her. Meanwhile, Cynthia's frown deepened, and she snapped, "What are you looking for here?"Cellinina's response was swift and sharp, "You are not in a position to ask me that question."Interrupting their exchange, Mlynar intervened with a pleading tone, "Must you both always fight when you see each other?"Cynthia's hiss cut through the tension as she turned to face Mlynar, her words dripping with disdain, "I will be here tonight with my luggage. I have missed you. Can't wait for us to live together in your house where there will be no disturbance," she declared, making sure Celinina could hear every word.Although Cellinina felt a pang of pain, she refused to show her vulnerable side. "Good thing, at least you will stop being superior to him," she retorted.Before Cynthia could escalate the confrontation, Mlynar stepped between
Jett's mind raced as he tried to process Riley's sudden transformation from a humble maid to a woman of wealth and power. He was both amazed and baffled by her newfound luxury, sensing there was more to her story than met the eye.Unable to contain his curiosity, Jett's excitement bubbled to the surface, his lips curling into a questioning smile as he asked, "Riley, Cynthia's maid, what is happening? Who sent you on this errand?"Riley's smirk was self-assured as she replied, "This was all mine," her tone dripping with confidence and pride."How... how did you..." Jett's words faltered, his mind struggling to grasp the sudden change in Riley's circumstances.Closing the distance between them, Riley spoke with conviction, "I am not a mere observer. When I was with Cynthia, I observed everything she did, how she managed her business, how she made strategic decisions. I absorbed it all.""So, you became suddenly rich with just your knowledge? Don't bullshit me," Jett's frustration seeped
