“Based on what the caller just said, several people have already been dispatched to take your life,” Xavier said suddenly, his voice calm yet pointed. “Don’t you think charging off for revenge right now would be nothing more than a suicide mission?”

“I…”

Hunter’s mouth opened to respond, but no words came out. Of course, he already knew Xavier was right—but…

His fists clenched tightly, his nails digging into his palms as his rage and unwillingness bubbled to the surface.

Xavier, noticing this, smiled faintly.

“I’m not denying you your revenge. You can always have it in the future,” he said. “And depending on how you perform… I might even give you a helping hand.”

“This…” Hunter froze, his jaw practically dropping to the ground.

He had never expected such words from Xavier—not in his wildest dreams.

“You… you… why?” he finally stuttered, his voice heavily laced with disbelief.

Xavier’s lips curled into a small smile, understanding his question. “Didn’t I mention earlier

[Little Spoiler:] Anticipate the next chapter, dear readers. It is quite emotional and even I had no idea when a drop of tears fell from my eye reading it. Anyway, I might edit and release it earlier than usual if this comment manages to get 15 likes and 6 comments. ;) Thanks for reading and supporting

    *****“Who would’ve anticipated that I’d actually get myself a free new subordinate today?” Xavier couldn’t help but mutter to himself with a small smile as he walked out of the alleyway, clearly pleased with recruiting Hunter.The thought lingered in his mind for a moment before his smile finally faded, replaced by a slight furrow as he stood by the roadside.“What’s next on the list?” he mumbled to himself, his brows knitting together.To be honest, although he had been well aware of his heavily packed schedule for the day, he hadn’t had the chance to plan it out.First, the previous day had been so hectic that by the time he was free, it was nearly the dawn of this morning, leaving him with only a few hours of sleep. Then, this morning, instead of organizing his tasks for the day, he had to rush out to meet Grace to fulfill a promise he’d completely forgotten about until the last minute.And after leaving Sky Group, his focus had been derailed again.Initially, he had intend

    *****“I…” Little Lola stammered, her tiny voice trembling at the sudden shift in Madam Tush’s tone.Fear and anxiousness clouded her wide eyes in the next instant, but the gnawing hunger twisting her insides was just too much to overcome. She swallowed hard and carefully nodded her head in response to Madam Tush’s question, her malnourished frame quivering. “Yes, ma’am.”The response had barely left her lips, however, when in the next second;“Hahaha!” Madam Tush erupted into laughter, the kind that was sharp and mocking as if Lola’s words were the most absurd thing she had ever heard in her entire existence.“Your father has already warned everyone this morning about you,” Madam Tush continued, spitting venomously with her expression twisting with disgust.“He told us all that you’re nothing but a little scammer, someone we should be very careful when dealing with. I should’ve listened, but I thought he was trying to paint you badly.”‘This…’Lola froze, her mind reeling a

    *****“It looks lively here… something interesting happening?”As soon as the haggard-looking man, exhaling a thick cloud of black smoke through his mouth and nostrils was beckoned over, he called out playfully, gazing at the crowd’s faces.“I summoned you,” the pretentious, arrogant, and heavily painted Madam Tush, drenched in overpowering perfume, announced icily, her gaze locking onto Vidor… Little Lola’s father.Contrary to what one might expect… that a gang leader would react with fury at being addressed so curtly, the man merely grinned sheepishly.“The great, mighty, and most prosperous Madam Tush,” he declared with exaggerated politeness, his expression oozing insincere flattery. “Did you summon me and my men to hand out some cash for cigarettes?”The moment his men caught wind of this, their eyes gleamed with anticipation while the crowd collectively rolled their eyes, making no effort to conceal their disgust.As for Madam Tush:“Why on earth would I squander my mone

    *****As soon as Little Lola saw Vidor’s ferocious glare on herself and heard his question, a terrifying adrenaline rushed down her spine and her heart sank—a feeling no child her age should be experiencing.A strong terror overtook her in the next instant, sweat soaking her back—perhaps from exhaustion after the grueling work or from sheer apprehension.She felt a lump forming in her throat, but still;“I…” she forcefully parted her lips and tried responding.However, she couldn’t endure Vidor’s piercing gaze any longer and in the next instant, she collapsed to the ground and broke down.“Father… Li… Little Lola just wants to eat bread and drink water,” she sobbed, trembling uncontrollably. “Little Lola is starving, and the pain is unbearable. Please… just a piece of bread!”She wept so pitifully that many in the crowd felt their hearts clench in pity for her.Even those who had chastised her moments ago found their eyes welling up, some sniffing as they struggled to hold bac

    *****Xavier had arrived over ten minutes ago, standing and waiting for Little Lola at the spot where he had promised to meet her the previous day.However, after waiting over five minutes with no sign of her, his first thought was that the little girl had run off with his money.But he quickly dismissed that idea, recalling the desperate, honest look in her eyes when he had seen her the previous evening.This had compelled him to reason that the little girl had either forgotten about their arrangement or had simply given up and left after waiting for him all morning.With this thought in mind, Xavier, knowing that the little girl was the only person who had the intention of taking him to where he could find the rare herbs he needed to concoct his parents’ medicine had no choice but to wander aimlessly into the market, searching for her.He had scoured every corner of the market, but not even the slightest trace of her had been found.However, just as he had decided to give up

    *****Xavier’s eyes couldn’t help but turn ice-cold, fury brimming within them as they locked onto the smirking thug, who was just a mere blink away from touching Little Lola despite his warning.In the next second, he took a single step forward, and then...PiuHe vanished.That’s right.He completely disappeared as though he had never been standing there to begin with.In the following moment:“Huh?”A collective gasp rippled through the crowd.Jaws dropped to the ground and all eyes widened in a stupor until finally—“You…” Several people pointed toward Xavier, their voices heavily laced with shock.He was now standing precisely where the thug, who had just attempted to seize Lola in order to spite Xavier, had been positioned.“How… how did he get there so quickly?” someone stuttered in a daze.“What sort of sorcery had he just performed?” another murmured, dumbfounded.They all stood stupefied, struggling to comprehend how Xavier had disappeared so fast in the blink of an eye.Jus

    *****Vidor was the leader of a small gang in the herb market. However, unlike the typical gang or gang leaders, he rarely made life miserable for others, nor was he a menace to society.Instead, apart from his habit of constantly roaming around and begging the merchants and customers for money, he was almost well-liked by the market’s people due to his mischievous nature.There was, however, only one way to witness his sinister and ruthless side—by interfering when he was disciplining or about to discipline his daughter.Note: Not just interfering, but trying to stop him from carrying out his punishment on her.He would turn into a completely different entity and might even go on a killing spree if care is not taken.Recalling this grim fact, several of the market people couldn’t help but cast Xavier a look of pity.“His intentions were good, but it seems he will definitely regret them very soon,” someone muttered with a small sigh, the crowd already forgetting about the miserable th

    *****Xavier could only let out a quiet sigh after a moment, knowing fully well that whatever this little girl had endured in her short life was far beyond anything he could fathom—far beyond her age.Ultimately, he lifted his head and his gaze locked onto the menacing figure before him—her father.Xavier wasn’t the type to meddle in matters that had nothing to do with him, but right now…“You don’t deserve to be a father,” he spat through gritted teeth, his voice raw with coldness and an emotion he couldn’t quite name. Then, without another word, he tightened his grip on the little girl’s trembling hand and turned away, walking off.Watching this scene, the marketplace fell into stunned silence.But in the next instant—“You… you dare?!” Vidor growled, his voice laced with rage and menace.His chest began to heave violently as though he was on the verge of exploding. Then, his furious gaze snapped toward his men, and he barked, unable to contain himself any longer—“What th

    *****Bloodfang Viper stood in place, his lips twitching as he processed the words the guard had just spat at him.‘Me… beg for a job, money, and an opportunity to meet your madam?’ he thought incredulously.Then in the next second, a flicker of something cold and deadly flashed in his eyes… a murderous glint so brief it almost didn’t exist.But for the security guard, it might as well have lasted an eternity.In that fraction of a second, he felt like he had plummeted straight into hell.He literally saw his life flash before his very eyes… a whirlwind of memories, as if death itself had grazed him. He felt blood, not on his skin, but in his mind, as if he were drowning in a sea of carnage.In the next second, a cold sweat drenched his back, and he began to shiver uncontrollably.“What… what was that?” he mumbled, his voice barely a whisper, his eyes losing every focus.On the other hand, Bloodfang Viper breathes out slowly, forcibly calming himself, then finally…“You’re l

    *****“That was…”Xavier couldn’t help but sigh as he stepped out of the hospital, shaking his head as he tried to push the image of the reunited couple out of his mind.The scene of Tife and Elliot breaking down, their raw emotions pouring out, lingered like a shadow.He ultimately rubbed his temples, then shaking off the thought, he flagged down a taxi.“Sky Group,” he said casually, sliding into the back seat.In the next second, the driver’s lips twitched into a faint smirk, his eyes flashing with mockery.‘Another fool thinking he can try his luck with Sky Group,’ the driver thought, a look of mockery and disdain flashing on his face while suppressing a chuckle, but he said nothing.Why would he even say anything? Ever since Harrison Conglomerate announced its interest in partnering with Sky Group, the area had been flooded with hopefuls. People desperate for a job, a connection — or even just a glimpse of the elusive president of Sky Group.The driver, like the other ta

    *****Hearing the sound of the slap that had just echoed through the ward like a gunshot, everyone froze, their breaths caught in their throats… especially Elliot, whose face burned where Tife’s hand had struck him.For a moment, nobody moved. Nobody spoke. Instead, they all just stared, stunned to the core, trying to process what had just happened.Then, Tife’s voice broke the silence.“You… you thought I preferred this life over the one I had with you?” she asked, but this time, her voice was no longer venomous, instead, it was trembling with unbearable rage and disbelief.Her eyes burned with fury, her chest rising and falling with the weight of her emotions.“Is that why you let me be taken away?” she demanded, her gaze cutting into Elliot like a blade.“I…” Elliot flinched from these questions and stared, guilt flickering across his face — fleeting, but Tife caught it.In the next second, her lip curled in disgust, a bitter chuckle spilling from her throat.“I knew it,”

  • Chapter 346 – Tife’s Reaction

    *****Tife finally looked in Elliot’s direction for the first time since her entry after feeling his devastated state.This was her first love — the man she had fallen for even when he had nothing.Even when he doesn’t have any ambition.This was the man she had dedicated her youth to and the very man she had given everything for.The man who had betrayed her.The man who had let her be taken away.This very man, whom she would have willingly sacrificed her life for hadn't even dared to stand up for her when the cruel landlord came. Instead, he had collapsed under fear, too terrified to resist and stand against the oppressor.Now, seeing him again after such a long time… desperately apologizing and repeatedly bowing his head to the ground, Tife stood frozen.She couldn’t blink, couldn’t move. Her body was so tense, her chest rising and falling under the weight of her emotions.Hatred.Pure, seething hatred coursed through her veins.At a mere glance, she could tell that El

    ********Xavier, “_”He didn’t need to ask anymore because it was already painfully obvious who this woman was.To confirm his speculation, he glanced at Elliot, and the moment he saw the one-armed man who was still frozen in place with a body drenched in cold sweat, Xavier sighed internally.‘I thought as much,’ he mulled.Understanding what was going on, Xavier first considered quietly leaving the room to give them privacy, but doing so felt like it would shatter the fragile moment.So, he stayed, watching quietly and doing his best to remain invisible.….On the other hand, by the time Tife’s sobs finally quieted, quite a lot of time had passed.With such a gentleness that no one would argue he was her biological father, the old man slowly helped Tife calm down.Seeing this, Selene cautiously approached, her eyes glistening.“Sister Tife,” she called out gently, her voice full of concern.“When… when did you come back?”Tife, carefully wiping her eyes gently looked at

    *****At this moment, it was as though Elliot’s spirit, soul, and mind had completely shattered, leaving behind nothing but a hollow and lifeless shell of a man.How long has it been?One year? Two years?It felt like an eternity!And yet, currently standing before him, as if fate itself was trying to toy with him was none but… her.His wife.The very woman he had failed to protect.In an instant, the memories Elliot had worked so hard and done his best to bury came flooding back with cruel intensity.It began from their very first meeting and slowly moved to the way when she had given up everything to be with him… to their fleeting moments of happiness.And then… the day he lost her.The evil landlord, along with him, had destroyed everything. And now—just when he was trying to put her behind him, move forward, and find a way to become a better person—she appears.Several times prettier than he had remembered.……Meanwhile, while Elliot was completely lost in his daze,

    *****While Elliot’s mind spiraled in chaos, drowning in regret and pain, God’s Time could only stare at Xavier, tears pouring down his face like a broken dam.He had spent his entire life doing what he believed was right—helping others in the best way he knew how, without expecting anything in return.Yet, never — not even once in his wildest dreams had he imagined that great heart of kindness... of helping people with no expectation for return would one day be the very thing that saved his life.It helped him out in his direst, most hopeless, and weakest state.Gave him a second chance.A chance to live.And a chance to start over.Thinking this, God’s Time couldn’t help but clench his teeth tightly against each other, his chest heaving with the weight of his emotions. Then, sniffing hard, he nodded his head repeatedly, appearing as if he was sealing an unspoken vow.“Even… even if I have to do good until the day I die… even if kindness would end up taking my life,” he whis

    *****By the time the husband and wife’s emotional outburst ultimately settled, several minutes had already passed.Realizing what she had done, Selene awkwardly let go of her husband and jumped to her feetThe ward fell into a heavy silence afterward, broken only by the occasional sniffle or shaky breath.Finally, however, God’s Time turned back to Xavier, his eyes swollen and red.He didn’t speak immediately.Instead, he stared, as if trying to reconcile the image of the boy he thought Xavier was with the man who had shattered his expectations beyond miles.The night they had met flashed through his mind like scenes from a fractured dream.He had assumed Xavier was also a lost soul — a wanderer like himself, someone who had fled his village in search of a greener pasture, not knowing that he would only be swallowed by the harshness of the city like himself and the others.He had even offered Xavier a place to stay in his crumbling home, thinking he was doing the boy a favor

  • Chapter 341 – What Did I Even Walk Into

    *****Right now, the ward felt warm.Way too warm. The kind of warmth that didn’t come from sunlight or cozy conversations but from a tension so heavy it thickened the air.Xavier, the only one seated after being practically forced into a chair, felt this weight pressing down on him, so he sat awkwardly, his fingers lightly tapping against his knee, his sharp eyes flickering between Elliot and his father.The two men stood before him like sentries, bombarding him with an endless stream of gratitude.They thanked him for liberating their neighborhood.For shattering the chains of years-long oppression.For stepping into their chaos like an angel of vengeance and fighting a war that wasn’t his to fight.Their words tumbled over each other, their spits flying as they praised him relentlessly.Xavier, however, could only offer a faint, helpless smile in response.He was the one who had told them moments ago not to be tensed, but…He felt like he was suffocating, why?He wasn
