Clarissa said with a sad voice.Lady Storm was sitting in a throne-like chair in the big living room, Charles was standing beside her with a smile on his face.Clarissa looked heartbroken as her eyes reddened from the sadness and betrayal she felt at the moment.'I knew they wouldn't give her the position easily,' William, who stood beside her, thought to himself."Clarissa, we won't let the wife of a loser take over such an important position in our family's business." Charles chimed in."What image of our family would we be sending if you are leading?" he continued, asking a question."Let me help you answer it. Shame, Disgrace, pitiful.. those are the images we would project of ourselves if you are the director."

Young master Charles, please come save me""Ahh!!""Waa!! My leg, my leg!"The three of them cried out loud as pain rocked their world.Two of them were lying on the ground, blood spilling out of their injuries. One's hand was broken and the leg of the other was brutally out of join, a little of his leg bone protruding out.Charles who had called for the guards was short of words, he kept staring at them and no word left his mouth."Is this the weaklings you sent after me?

Donald walked into the living room with proud steps, an attractive smile adorning his face as he smiled at Clarissa and Lady storm who both had the same surprised expression.Just as he was about to greet them, he saw three bloodied bodies on the ground, crying."What happened here?" He asked with a surprise expression on his face.These guards were powerful guards, he knew them because he had fought with them in the past and they were not people he could joke with."That bastard did it," Charles replied."He fucking beat our guards up to such a state, can you believe it," he added, gritting his teeth."Huh?" Donald looked at Charles confused."Which bastard are you taking about? Is it William? No it can't be William, he doesn't have the power to beat even the weakest guard.. who is this bastard then?" He asked."It is indeed William, he did this," Charles dropped the name and Donald eyes widened in shock.William is weak, very weak compared to the weakest guard but he was able to bea

William stretched his hand for an handshake and Penber shook his hands.The last time, Penber tried exerting strength on his grip. He did the same thing this time with a smile on his face."Haha, still trying to show your strength?" William laughed and exerted strength on his hand.CRACK-CRACK--The sound of bone breaking could be heard around the first floor of Starkcom hotel.Penber eyes widened in surprise, he was feeling so much pain to make a grown man faint but didn't show any look of pain on his face."You have got a lot stronger since the last time we met," He said with a smile on his face.However he was trying to hide the pain and shock.'He is this strong without any magic power? What if someone like this becomes an elite?''I

The glow from his clothes illuminated the face of the other one and this one was terrifying.It was someone with almost the same appeal as William, however, he had a horn on his head and a devilish grin."Soon, William, soon!"

Donald is here to pick up Charles as well as try his luck with getting Clarissa and also to humiliate William."Haha, you have already done enough for us, Donald. If it wasn't for your help, our family would not have had a chance with Starkcom.
