It had to be noted that Bashan Khan brought as many as thirty-five masked men with him, along with those fifteen human-level armed men who had been knocked out by Abigail. With these men holding out each other’s hands, a wide circle was formed, enclosing Bashan Khan and William with a human-made boundary.William couldn’t help it as his gaze shifted outside of the artificial ring to find that every single one of the twenty-two McArthur bodyguards had been pounded into an unconscious state. Turning his gaze to the opposite direction, William also noted that Abigail was yet to emerge from the heap of concrete she had been knocked into by those two special soldiers. Understanding the amount of resilience his bodyguards possessed, William knew something was definitely wrong. That specific situation reeked of some sort of foul play.William was right.Bashan Khan’s special had not won the battle against the McArthur bodyguards by playing fair at all. Even though they were able to have
The fight between William and Bashan Khan commenced. Understanding the kind of fighting style his opponent was heavily proficient in, William was aware that his best technique would be Muay Thai. As the two engaged each other in hand-to-hand combat, the fight became very interesting to watch. Despite both having a similar build of the professional swimmer type, it had to be noted that Bashan Khan is older by age than William. The Arabian young lord was trained in the arts of brutal fighting, while William had toughened his exterior by sparring daily with Abigail and the McArthur bodyguards. Bashan Khan’s strikes are delivered with brutal strength, aiming for all fatal points on William’s body. Unfortunately for him, this was William’s strategy as well, except he’s being more evasive and cautious with his strikes. Bashan Khan scoffed as he kept trying to get an impactful hit on William. “Stop being evasive and face me like a man, you coward!”While his opponent was speaking, Will
On the other side, this was it for Bashan Khan. He found a vulnerable spot in William’s defense, and it was his heart, specifically his emotional state in relation to romantic love.It had to be recalled to attention that despite William’s intellect, among his many gifts, he was still pretty much a ‘naïve child when it came to matters of the heart. Apart from Ayra Brown and Camilla Parker, he had never truly fallen for any other person. This is why he tends to be a bit slow when it came down to handling his emotions in this department. Unfortunately for him though, this wasn’t the case for Bashan Khan, who had now found a way to obtain victory against this surprisingly formidable orphan.“Why are you acting surprised over this? Didn’t my fiancee tell you everything?” Bashan Khan began speaking with a condescending tone. “Guess you two aren’t as close as you make it out to be. Listen up! Camilla Parker sold herself to me in exchange for her family’s business empire to be granted unl
Once Bashan Khan saw this hateful glare, the sickening pleasure coursing through him quickly turned sour. Despite his inevitably end towards defeat, there was an ominous message behind William’s angry stare directed at him. For some reason, he could feel some sort of heart-wrenching threat from this guy, and he didn’t like it one bit. It was like William was silently conveying to him that, even if he lost this battle, he was far from being done with Bashan Khan. What made Bashan Khan’s heart shake slightly was the depth of confidence behind this silent message William conveyed. It was as if William was certain that he would bounce back later and take revenge on Bashan Khan.The more Bashan Khan stared at the hateful glare William was directing up at him, the more he was now finding himself infuriated. There was something enigmatic about William, and for some reason, it was making his sixth sense go off. He did not like this young man one bit. To him, it was even more telling of his
William, on the other hand, could hear everything being said, despite his horrible physical state. When he heard the brief conversation between Bashan Khan and the special soldiers, he finally had the answer to something that had been bothering him.William had long expected Camilla to show up with E.R. Dominque. They should have made it here since he was facing Veronica and her six creatures, but for some reason, they never arrived. Now lying helplessly on the ground with a bloody face and fractured bones all over his body, he finally knew the truth. Before that fleet of helicopters that Bashan Khan, his special soldiers, and his ordinary bodyguards had arrived in showed up in his line of sight, the Arabian young lord had actually sent people to distract them on the road ahead. He obviously didn’t want his fiancee to catch him in the act of what he had done here.William struggled to open his right eye, as his left eyelid had simply turned too swollen to even lift. He then let out
The Parker estate, situated outside of Bel Air City, occupies a huge expanse of land with buildings that speak well to their status, class, and immense wealth. Currently, a luxurious car can be seen zooming through the path to the main mansion. The headlights glared brighter underneath the dark blanket of the night sky.The security officers and the estate employees in the estate all began whispering among one another the second they recognized who was driving this car.“Oh Lord! The young madam is back!”“Yeah, I caught a glimpse of her car. The security guard told me that she was the one driving her car and that she looked as gorgeous as ever. But I also heard that she was in a furious mood.”“Really?! What could be the reason? Anyway, I hope she calms herself before she gets to the main mansion. Her fiancee arrived mere hours ago after all.”“Oh my goodness, how could I forget that? The engaged couple haven’t seen each other in a while. It won’t be good to meet with such a ne
Camilla hated the fact that Bashan Khan and her parents were still discussing this issue as if it were a casual event. Her fiancee had just murdered her aunt and yet, her parents suddenly don’t seem to care. She understood that the relationship between her parents and Veronica had long been severed due to the internal struggles through the years. Yet, she didn’t expect things to have become this bad. Apart from the sentimentality of it all, it should be seen as an utter disrespect for an outsider to willingly kill a notable member of their family and not receive even the slightest punishment. If this had been any other person than Bashan Khan, both her parents and the Parker family elders would have declared war on the culprit and their family, even if Veronica was on the verge of losing her title as a notable member. After all, the Parker had a reputation to uphold. Yet….Joel glanced around the wide living room with a stern gaze. There were maids and other housekeepers here, sti
William’s first perception was the beeping sound, followed by the moderately familiar scent. Finally, he let out the weakest groan possible as he struggled to open his eyes. “Young Master, you’re awake! Thank goodness.” A familiar calm voice spoke these words. Following this, a couple of footsteps could be heard coming closer to the patient’s bed.William groaned once again as he struggled to adjust his eyesight to the light.“The lights are too bright. Dim them a bit.”“Understood, Sir.”The voices William was hearing once again sounded familiar. He was getting increasingly certain who was in this room with him. “Butler M…Mike, is that you?” He asked weakly as his pair of eyes slowly shifted to the right edges to find the figure of the middle-aged man walking towards him with a calm smile.That was when a deeper voice reached his ears. “Good to see you awake, my boy.”William felt a slight wave of warmth wash through him when he heard this voice and he gathered enough streng
