Lord Griffin's Mighty Return Chapter 49
“You’ve already caused enough trouble for our daughter, and now you’re hooking up with another woman?!”Ana’s voice was dripping with disdain, and Harold’s tone matched hers, laced with fury.But there was a smug gleam in their eyes, an air of certainty.They had been waiting for this moment.Once Selune saw the undeniable evidence of Arthur’s betrayal, she would finally see the light and toss him out of her life for good.Selune sat motionless on the couch, her body rigid, her hands clasped tightly together in her lap.Her eyes were fixed on the photo on the table in front of her, the image refusing to blur, even as her mind scrambled to process it.In the photo, Arthur was standing uncomfortably close to a woman—a woman she didn’t recognize.They were so close their bodies were practically touching, and the moment was captured just as they were getting into her car.It was like a punch to the gut, each beat of her heart feeling slower, heavier.The shock cut through her in waves, le

Peter Charles’s sleek, luxury car cruised slowly into Arthur’s line of sight, its polished design turning heads and drawing the attention of everyone nearby.“Not bad. Looks like you’ve awakened,” Arthur said with a slight nod.Peter looked full of energy.“It’s all thanks to your guidance! I can’t thank you enough!”“And I have got a good news for you!”Arthur raised an eyebrow, his gaze sharp. “What do you mean?”Peter grinned. “Earlier, you told me to keep an eye out for rare herbs. Tonight, there’s Phoenix Herb at the auction!”Peter quickly pulled an auction catalog from his bag and handed it to Arthur.Arthur opened the catalog, and his eyes landed on a stunning, blood-red plant.The fiery color seemed to burn off the page—exactly what Arthur had been searching for.His heart raced.Two-thirds of the ingredients needed for the antidote were already within reach.“This Phoenix Herb has to be mine!”“Of course!” Peter’s excitement matched Arthur’s. “I’ll make sure to get it for yo
Lord Griffin's Mighty Return Chapter 51
That night, Daniel led a small team of armed soldiers, quietly closing in on the Selune house.The air felt thick with tension, the cold night wrapping the street in a quiet, oppressive silence.Edward Wells stood at the doorstep.The doorbell rang out, sharp and clear, cutting through the silence like a gunshot, its echo lingering in the still night air.Harold stepped forward with an easy smile, his hand already reaching for the door to pull it wider, expecting another normal evening.But when his eyes locked with Daniel’s, the smile faded as if it had been wiped away.Daniel stood tall and imposing—his broad shoulders and muscular frame silhouetted against the dim porch light.In his hand, he gripped a gun with an ease that spoke volumes about his deadly precision.His cold, hard eyes locked onto Harold, and the smile vanished entirely from Harold’s face."Mr. Wells, what’s going on?" Harold stammered, his voice shaky, a faint tremor betraying his confusion and fear."Cut the crap!

Time ticked by as the rich and powerful began to trickle into the Holiday Auction House, each one more important than the last.Holiday Auction House was world-famous, always offering treasures beyond imagination.It wasn’t just an auction; it was the event to attend if you had money and influence.The hall was split into two levels.The first floor was the main area, buzzing with chatter.It was bright and spacious, with wooden tables piled high with drinks and snacks, where guests mingled casually.The second floor, though, was where the real action was.Reserved for VIPs, the suites up here were private and luxurious, offering a perfect view of the entire hall.It was quiet, secluded, and absolutely the most exclusive place to be.Peter had already heard that the Phoenix Herb would be up for auction tonight.He’d spared no expense, securing the best suite on the second floor just for this moment.Arthur sat back in their private suite, cool and calm, while Peter stood by, eyes lock
Lord Griffin's Mighty Return Chapter 1
[Breaking News: General Griffin, Honored War Hero, Falls in Battle!]The nation grieves his heroic sacrifice in the fight against the Allied Forces.General Griffin, after defeating thousands of enemies, has fallen into the "Abyss of Death."…Selune sat on the beach, staring at the breaking news on the screen, completely shocked.General Griffin?Her grandfather had talked about him often.General Griffin was a legend, the invincible war hero who had saved the country more times than anyone could count.No one had ever seen his face. He had always worn a mask.But that didn't stop him from becoming an iconic figure.He was known as the God of War, a man who could singlehandedly turn the tide of any battle.His great strength and mysterious background are to be admired.No wonder the nation grieving for him.Selune turned off her phone, her heart heavy.It wasn’t just the death of the God of War that weighed on her. It also reminded her of her grandfather.Since her grandfather fell in

“Father?! Aunt Elina?!”Selune jumped up, her eyes wide in shock as a flood of people burst into the room.Her sudden movement nearly caused the towel she had wrapped around herself to fall. She scrambled to keep it in place, her hands shaking with embarrassment.Her perfect figure—accidentally exposed—made her cheeks burn, and her heart raced in shame.But it seemed only to fuel her father’s fury even more.Harold’s finger trembled as he pointed at her, his voice shaking with anger. “What the hell are you doing?! Who the hell is this man?!”He shouted. Seeing his daughter barely dressed, lying next to a half-naked man, was too much for him to handle. His heart almost stop.Selune finally realized how easily this situation could be misunderstood. “It’s not what you think! I don’t even know this man!”“You don’t know him?!” Harold’s voice cracked in disbelief. “Your wedding’s coming up, and you’re sleeping with some random guy?!”“No! Please, let me explain! He—”Before she could fi

Startled, Selune rushed to him, checking for a pulse. Her breath caught in her throat when she realized he was still alive, just unconscious.But in this moment, even someone like Selune, who was usually calm and composed in board meetings, found herself at a loss.Her family was falling apart, and the next, there was an unconscious stranger in her room. She had no idea how to deal with any of it!Perhaps her attitude toward him had been a bit too harsh earlier—after all, he was just an innocent bystander caught up in all of this.‘Just wait until he wakes up’, she thought, trying to regain some sense of control.‘Then, I can get him to a hospital, get him out of here, and explain everything to my father and Aunt Elina.’‘The engagement can still go on, and my father will forgive me. Maybe everything will go back to normal…’With that faint hope, Selune dragged the man back onto the bed.As she moved him, a ring slipped from his pocket, hitting the floor with a soft clink.What’s this?

The deafening roar of cheers filled his ears. He muttered the name: “Arthur…”“Good, looks like you’ve got your name back,” Selune said, her voice calm but firm.“Now you need to remember something else. I saved your life, and I’ll take you to a doctor to get checked out.”“I don’t expect anything from you in return, but…”Arthur looked at her, waiting for her to finish.“You’re coming home with me. You’re going to explain the relationship between us. Clear everything up. Got it?”The cold, no-nonsense command in her voice brooked no argument.“Fine. And… thank you. I’ll never forget it.” Arthur nodded.The conditions were reasonable, even beneficial to him. He had no reason to refuse.Her expression softened for just a moment, satisfied with his answer. “Good. I’ll be at the door in ten minutes.”As she walked out, Arthur stayed seated on the bed, the weight of the ring in his hand drawing his attention.He turned it over and over, its cold surface a link to his forgotten past.Sudde

Arthur stood at the table, staring down at the broken crystal ball.He knew it wasn’t going to reveal anything more.But he couldn’t figure out why the old woman was so thrilled, or what she meant by "the Chosen One."“Well, let’s call it a day,” he said, his voice calm.“Take the fifth herb from the third row in your garden, mix it with the others in your basket, and simmer it for three hours.”“Drink it in three doses a day. In a week, your leg will be healed.”Arthur offered this advice as a thank you for the old woman’s reading, then turned to leave.Isis’s eyes lit up.Her respect and awe for him deepened.She couldn’t believe Arthur could figure out the exact effects of her herbs just by looking at them!She had been brewing potions with them for years, but the results were always weak.Now she realized she’d been missing one crucial ingredient.It all clicked. Gratitude flooded her heart.She was even more impressed by Arthur now.“Wait, Savior!” she called, rushing forward wit

Mia and Arthur stepped out of the car, their boots sinking into the soft, wet earth.The air smelled fresh, a mix of rich soil and pine.All around them, the forest was alive with vibrant green leaves and the sound of birds chirping.“Don’t get any ideas just because my dad likes you. I’ve met guys like you before, and trust me, you’re not special,”Mia shot Arthur a look that could cut glass.“Hurry up! If you get lost, don’t come crying to me!”Without waiting for him to respond, she marched off into the thick woods.Arthur rolled his eyes. This girl was way too full of herself.But he wasn’t about to argue with her. He had better things to do.Plus, it was easier to follow her than get lost in this dense forest.They trekked through the underbrush, tall grass brushing against their legs, branches rustling as they passed.The air was thick with moisture and the earth beneath their feet was soft, like the whole forest was alive.After what felt like forever, they finally broke throug

Arthur walked back into the Selune house, only to be greeted by the cold, judgmental glares of Ana and Harold. They stood by the door like he was some unwanted guest.“You’re not welcome here,” Ana snapped, crossing her arms and glaring at him with pure hostility.“Listen, kid,” Harold chimed in, clearly impatient, “Whatever your deal is, you’ve caused enough trouble for this family.”“You better not have any more plans for Selune. She’s gonna marry someone rich! Leave now!” Ana’s voice rose in anger, her eyes locking on Arthur with a warning glare. “Never come back!”Arthur barely glanced at them, his cold stare making them shift uncomfortably. They both instinctively took a step back as if something invisible was pushing them.“Is this what Selune wants?” he asked, his tone even.Ana froze, but quickly recovered. “Of course! She’s been tired of you for a while!”Harold added, “Yeah. You’ve been nothing but trouble for her. She’s too polite to tell you herself!”Arthur slowly turned

Marco couldn’t hold it in any longer.“But if the window was open, doesn’t that mean Isabella left through there?”Arthur let out a quiet chuckle and shook his head.“Sure, the window was open. But did you see any footprints on the sill? Nope. That’s because she didn’t climb out of it. The window was just meant to throw us off.”Suddenly, everyone got it.Marco’s frown deepened, and his voice grew tense.“Okay, so if she didn’t leave through the window, where did she go? Cindy found the room empty after she opened the door!”“Yeah, sir, that’s right, sir,” Cindy chimed in, standing nervously at the side, clutching her dress like it might fly away.“I used the spare key to open the door, and there was no one in there.”The group paused, thinking hard.If Isabella didn’t vanish through the window, had she really just disappeared into thin air?Arthur raised an eyebrow.“Are you sure you checked every corner?”Cindy froze, eyes wide. She hadn’t expected that question.She nodded, but it

Arthur rushed down the hallway, heading straight for Marco’s wife’s room.The others followed, their faces grim, filled with dread.In the dim light of the hallway, Isabella’s maid spoke fast, panic creeping into her voice.“I helped the lady into her room and closed the door behind her so she could rest. Then I went to get her some water.”“But when I came back... the door was locked from the inside. No matter how much I called, she didn’t answer.”“I used the spare key to open it—and the room was empty.”The tension in the air thickened as everyone silently processed what she said.It was clear: something was wrong.The door creaked open, and they all stepped inside.The room was spotless, the bed neatly made, but everything felt... off.The only thing that stood out was the window—wide open.Marco’s face went pale.Was it possible? Had his wife jumped?Though the room was only on the second floor, a fall from here could still hurt her badly—maybe even kill her.He rushed to the win
