Rex had finished his sandwich and only had to wait five more minutes to pretend he was poisoned. However, before he could do that, six people suddenly approached his table. He had never met or even made trouble with them before.They seemed to be students from other departments. Rex was sure they came to do something to him because their gazes were focused on him when Alexis and Chelsea were there, too.“Hey, do you guys need something?” Chelsea was the first to ask because she knew the people. They were Archer’s best friend, the man who had always chased her, and the son of a famous lawyer in the country.“We need to talk to him.” A big man pointed at Rex. “Could you come with us for a bit?” he asked kindly because he did not want to make a commotion.Meanwhile, Alexis, who wanted to look good in front of Rex, immediately took action. He stood up and looked at the big man boldly. “Rex is my friend. You are all too suspicious. Aren’t you from the law department? We have no problem wit
Luke had many subordinates, and they were all scattered all over the country. It made it easier for him to get the latest news. Some time ago, he got a message from Toby explaining that Rex had been taken to the hospital.It only meant one thing. The young master of the Quillon family was indeed so weak that he could not deal with the poison. Luke had known young masters from other rich families, and most of them were immune to poison.“What are you thinking, boss?”Luke stopped staring at his cell phone screen when he heard the voice of Corwin, his right-hand man. “I was thinking about a weak young master. He is a bit different. I think he is hiding something,” he replied calmly.“Some people prefer to hide their identity and pretend to be weak. But I’m sure the young master of the Quillon family isn’t.” Corwin had joined The Devastating Blow and knew how to keep up with Luke. “Everyone who had met him said he was often sick.”“Well, I also know that our leader has met him. Is he tha
Morris arrived at the hospital after finding out that Rex was poisoned. His young master was immune to poison, but he was worried that someone had given Rex a deadly poison. He knew that the Quillon family’s enemies were always looking for ways to carry out their attacks, one of which was by making poison that Rex could not handle.Rex disappeared from the public eye when he was young. Since then, no one knew of his whereabouts. But still, someone had poisoned him today. It only meant one thing: the bullies had leaked Rex’s true identity.It seemed they shared that information with a brave person. Other rich families would not dare attack Rex because they realized how powerful the Quillon family was. The only ones who dared to do so were the people from the underworld.“What brings you here, sir?”Morris snapped out of his thoughts when he heard Ian’s voice. He had met Ian several times because the doctor worked at the Quillon family’s hospital. Ian had great respect for him after fin
“What are you going to do with Julio? You can’t just let him go.” Morris spoke irritably at the memory of what Julio had done to Rex. He hoped his young master would allow him to finish off the annoying young man.However, Rex could not allow that to happen. When Morris intervened in his revenge plot, it would not be fun anymore. Julio was no match for Morris. In other words, Julio would die instantly when Morris interfered.“Calm down, uncle. His plan this time will turn around on himself,” said Rex, who was now sitting on his bed. He was tired of pretending to be lying down.Morris frowned, then massaged Rex’s shoulder as he realized his young master was sore. “Are you talking about Luke? He beats anyone he doesn’t like. If Julio is being rude, then he will be in the hospital after Luke beats him up.”“Julio may be a bad person, but he knows the situation. I’m sure he will not dare get into trouble with Luke. You remember what happened at the hotel that night, right?”“Of course. I
Chelsea thought Rex would not be curious about anything since she had saved his life. However, her assumption was wrong because it turned out that Rex was more careful than she thought. Even Alexis was also looking at her curiously.“No one realized that Rex was poisoned. How did you notice that? I don’t mean to suspect you, I’m just curious,” said Alexis intentionally trying to provoke Chelsea’s emotions.Because he played with Julio, he came to know that Chelsea was so bad-tempered. Chelsea had snapped at Julio several times. He hoped Chelsea would do the same to make Rex lose his feelings for the girl.However, Chelsea could control her emotions well. She would not be provoked by Alexis. With a calm face, she explained, “You must know that my family is rich. My family owns a resort business, if you don’t know.”“Well, I already knew about that. Why are you suddenly showing off about your family business?” Alexis interrupted because some time ago Chelsea did not get angry.“There ar
Rex was allowed to leave the hospital at night. The only people who greeted him were the servants and bodyguards in the main mansion. His parents were on a business trip, not knowing that someone had poisoned him.He thought the news would make his parents worry and not focus on their business. That was why he forbade everyone to report that to his parents. He would talk about it when Carlton and Alyssa got home.“You don’t want to take a shower first?” Morris asked as he saw Rex walk into the practice room.Rex stopped to look at Morris. “I will do it after practice. Please tell everyone not to interfere with my practice, unless it’s something important.”Then he continued to walk and entered the practice room. He saw Molly stretching there. The woman remained focused on her stretching, even though she knew Rex was approaching her.“I asked Uncle Morris to increase my practice time. Did you know about that?” Rex asked because Molly did not greet him.“Yeah, I know. But I don’t want t
It had been five days since Rex had trained with Molly. However, he was still cultivating since then. Molly did not expect that Rex would succeed on his first try. It was not just her who was surprised, but Morris as well.They decided not to tell anyone about it, except Carlton and Alyssa. Not everyone who worked for the Quillon family could be trusted. In the past, Molly had caught an enemy spy disguised as a servant.That was why she asked Morris not to tell that Rex had successfully passed the first stage of cultivation. If the enemy spies were still in the main mansion and found out about the information, then they would immediately report it.Many people would go after Rex when they found out that he was talented. No one had ever passed the first stage of cultivation so easily. Even a young cultivator who was called the greatest in the country had to experience failure.“What should we do next? The servants are curious that Rex never shows up to eat,” Morris said when Molly invi
Rex did not know how long it would take him to cultivate, but he felt that his cultivation only took a moment. It was an experience he could not forget. He felt energy flowing through his body as if he had connected with the earth.If only Molly had told him about cultivation beforehand, then Rex would have become a great cultivator in the country. He thought to himself as he walked towards a dining room. In the main mansion, the bodyguards and servants had their own dining room.It was far apart from the main dining room that Rex and his parents used to use. It took him about fifteen minutes to get to see Molly. The woman sat casually as he entered the room. Molly acted like she knew this was going to happen and she should not be surprised.“So you really did it,” Molly said as she realized Rex was sitting across from her. “How are you feeling now?”Rex was silent, unable to describe how he felt now. “I don’t know, but I’m happy because I feel I’ve become stronger,” he replied with a
