THE SUPREME NATHAN THORNS (The City's god) Chapter 36
Kacper watched as James staggered out of the building, his lips curling into a grimace. He was still doubtful, but at this point, James had no other choice but to make sure the plan worked. If he failed again, there would be no more mercy.As soon as the door shut behind James, a slow clap echoed from the shadows. Kacper turned sharply, his body tensing, but then his gaze landed on the man stepping forward.Frank.His uncle emerged from the darkness, his presence colder, heavier than before. Despite the vicious beating he had taken from Nathan at the medical conference, Frank no longer looked like a broken man. His bruises were faint, his posture firm, his aura exuding something far more dangerous.Kacper's brows furrowed.He tilted his head, studying him. “Uncle, you look even stronger than ever.What did you do? ”His eyes gleamed with intrigue.Frank chuckled, low and eerie, rolling his shoulders as if testing newfound strength. “A technique,” he said, his voice heavy with satisfacti

After leaving the restaurant, Nathan returned home, his body tense but his mind calm. The acupuncture technique he had used on Frank earlier had drained a significant amount of his energy. Even though he had managed to suppress Frank during the medical conference, he knew that his opponent wouldn’t stay down for long. He needed to replenish his strength—quickly.Stepping inside his villa, he exhaled deeply, rolling his shoulders to relieve the lingering stiffness in his muscles. He needed to cultivate. But this time, the usual space inside the house at the rooftop wouldn’t suffice. He needed a better place so he started looking around for it. He didn't want any stagnation in his progress. Nathan moved toward the balcony, looking out at the vast land surrounding his property. A cool breeze rustled through the trees, and his sharp eyes scanned the terrain. As he turned to leave, a faint, almost imperceptible pull caught his attention. It was subtle but distinct, like a whisper calling
THE SUPREME NATHAN THORNS (The City's god) Chapter 38
His cultivation had leaped forward overnight, but what truly excited him wasn’t just his newfound strength—it was the realization of what this place could offer.Nathan smirked, his fingers lightly tracing the ring on his hand, its ancient engravings pulsing with a faint glow. “Some pills can strengthen the body, some can cure diseases, and some… can even bring the dead back to life,” he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper.The thought sent a shiver down his spine. Pill concoction was no ordinary skill. It required mastery, precision, and above all, a location rich in spiritual energy. Normally, even the most skilled alchemists struggled to find such a perfect environment. But he? He had stumbled upon the ideal setting by sheer luck.Or was it fate?He clenched his fist, determination burning in his eyes. If he could successfully concoct high-quality pills, he would no longer be dependent on others for resources. He could use them to fortify his own cultivation, to heal wounds

Clarke's smile faltered for a fraction of a second. She had hoped to go with them so she could see Robert Gaius. This was a rare opportunity to meet one of the city's famous moguls in person and it has slipped.Reluctantly, she agreed. "Alright, then. I wish you both the best."As James led Natalia out, Clarke watched them drive off, smiling so widely in admiration.James drove with a quiet smirk, one hand on the wheel, the other resting casually against the gear shift. The hum of the engine filled the space between them as they left the city behind.Natalia, lost in thought, barely noticed the change in route—until she glanced out the window. The roads were unfamiliar. The urban scenery had faded, replaced by open roads and sparse buildings.She frowned slightly. "James, this isn’t the way to Gaius Group."James, still calm, glanced at her from the corner of his eye. "I know. Robert Gaius prefers to discuss matters in a more private setting. He arranged for us to meet at a different

Meanwhile, back at Natalia's office, Clarke was sorting through a few documents on Natalia’s desk when the soft hum of a luxury car’s engine reached her ears. Curious, she lifted her head just in time to see a tall, authoritative man step through the glass doors. Her heart nearly stopped.Robert Gaius.She had never met him in person, but his face was well-known in the business world. Stunned, she quickly composed herself and approached him.“Mr. Robert,” she greeted, her voice laced with astonishment. “It's nice to see you. It's like a dream come through," she added in barely contained excitment.Robert turned his sharp gaze to her. His expression remained polite but questioning. “Hello. You are…?”“I’m Clarke, Miss Natalia’s assistant,” she introduced herself with a small bow. Robert nodded. “Good. I’ve come to sign the contract with Natalia.”“Contract?” Clarke echoed, eyes widening in astonishment. “But Miss Natalia already left… to meet you.”Robert’s brows furrowed. His entire

“Master Nathan, please, just take the card. You’re the chairman of Dynasty Group. If you don’t believe me, take this card to Narvo Bank. Enter your birthday and check the balance. Everything will be revealed.”Liera’s voice was calm but firm, her green eyes glistening with reverence. Without waiting for a response, she placed the sleek black card on the table in front of him and bowed deeply—almost folding herself in half—before turning and walking out of the café.After countless attempts to convince him, she had given up on words. Now, she would let the truth speak for itself.Her heels clicked sharply against the floor. Outside, a black Rolls-Royce waited, its engine purring softly as she slid into the back seat.A convoy of luxury cars followed her departure, leaving Nathan alone with the card and his thoughts.Nathan stared at the card, his expression unreadable.He didn’t pick it up immediately, instead letting out a low, humorless laugh. “Chairman of Dynasty Group? Me? What a j

Nathan wasted no time and hurried to Narvo Bank, the Gold card burning in his pocket. His heart pounded—not from excitement, but from the lingering sting of betrayal. But he needed answers, mostly at the moment.As he approached the grand entrance of Narvo Bank, he barely had time to take in the opulent surroundings before two familiar figures stepped in his path.Natalia’s mother, Thelma, and her younger sister, Joyce.Sighting him, their eyes gleamed with something far less polished—contempt.Thelma sneered, her red lips curling in disgust. “What the heck are you doing here, good-for-nothing?”Joyce cackled, flipping her sleek brown hair over her shoulder. “Oh, please tell me you’re lost. This isn’t some rundown café, you know.”Nathan clenched his fists but remained silent.“Ah,” Thelma gasped dramatically. “Maybe he came to see us to beg Natalia to take him back. How pitiful.”Joyce snorted, linking her arm with her mother’s. “If that’s the case, then he’s even dumber than we thou

Taylor’s fury was relentless, her piercing gaze locking onto the security guard. Without hesitation, she straightened her shoulders and declared, “You’re fired.”The guard’s face was drained of color. “M-Ma’am, please—”“You dare lay hands on him?” she cut him off sharply. “Not only did you fail in your duty, but you humiliated a Supreme Gold cardholder in front of the entire bank! You’re done here. Get out now before I have you dragged out.”The man stumbled back, his lips parting, but Taylor had already shifted her focus.Just as the security guard turned to leave in disgrace, Thelma stepped forward, nostrils flaring. “Ms. Taylor, you’re making a huge mistake!” she snapped.Taylor arched an unimpressed brow.Thelma jabbed a finger toward Nathan. “This nobody is fooling you! He’s not the owner of that card! You should call the police and have him arrested for fraud before it’s too late.”Joyce smirked, nodding in agreement. “Exactly! Someone like him could never have that kind of mone

A dark silence stretched between them.Kacper’s gaze remained piercing, and impenetrable.Finally, he hummed. “Is that so?”James swallowed hard, his head pounding as he struggled to keep himself upright. His entire body ached, sharp pain radiating from every inch of his battered frame. He let out a trembling breath, his face smeared with blood and dirt. His lips quivered as he stammered, “Y…yes, I've got a perfect plan for that.”One of Kacper’s men scoffed. “Capping,” he muttered, spitting on the ground beside James.Kacper let out a low chuckle, turning his back to James. His fingers drummed lazily against his wrist as he mused. "I don’t like being lied to, James," he said smoothly.At his unspoken command, the men surged forward again.James barely had time to scream before fists and boots landed on him. He curled into himself, coughing violently as a solid kick slammed into his ribs. “P—please!” he gasped, spitting blood. "I swear on my family’s name, I have a plan! A real plan

Natalia’s fingers curled tightly around her clutch as she cast a brief glance at James. A forced smile lifted her lips—polite, detached, yet lacking warmth. James, however, either didn’t notice or chose to ignore it. His usual smirk remained intact, his confidence unshaken.“I booked the best private lounge for us,” he announced smoothly, adjusting the cuff of his tailored suit. “It’s exclusive, quiet, and perfect for—”Natalia cut him off with a small wave of disinterest. “No, James.” Her voice was firm but not unkind. “I appreciate it, but I have to leave. My company just secured a high investment, and I need to handle the related matters immediately.”James’ smirk wavered for the briefest moment before he recovered, masking his displeasure with practiced ease. He exhaled through his nose, a measured breath of someone keeping their emotions in check.“Of course,” he said smoothly, stepping closer. “That’s a huge deal for you. I’ll drive you back to your company.”She remained still

Nathan didn’t even flinch when he saw Natalia and James. His expression remained impassive, his strides unbroken as he continued supporting Taylor toward the exit. He acted as if they were nothing more than air, his focus solely on Taylor, whose fingers now clung lightly to his arm.But Natalia saw them. And she felt it—a sharp, unwelcome pang in her chest.She had told herself it didn’t matter. That Nathan was free to do whatever he wanted. But the moment she saw Taylor leaning into him, saw the effortless way they stood together, the way Taylor’s fingers lingered on his arm like she belonged there—her stomach twisted.And he hadn’t even responded to her message.Her grip on her clutch tightened as she stepped forward, her voice laced with unrestrained bitterness. “I see now why you were too busy to respond to my message, Nathan. You were with your new love interest.”Nathan finally stopped. His face remained calm, unreadable. “She’s a friend,” he said smoothly. “That’s all.”Taylor,

Taylor exhaled, relieved, though her face remained red. But the embarrassment wasn’t over yet. The romantic ambiance—the soft glow of candlelight, the roses, the gentle music—it all made her hyper-aware of her surroundings. And she was a little excited about it.“I—uh, can we get a VIP private room instead?” she quickly asked the manager. The manager chuckled but nodded. “Of course. Right this way.”As they walked, Taylor kept her gaze forward, her posture stiff. Nathan, meanwhile, remained as composed as ever.Once they were seated, he finally spoke. “Embarrassed?”Taylor scoffed, crossing her arms. “Of course not. Why would I be?”Nathan’s lips twitched slightly. “If you say so.”She huffed, burying her face behind the menu, trying to will her heart to slow down.Inside the lit VIP room, an air of quiet satisfaction settled between them as they finished their meal. Taylor leaned back against her chair, crossing her legs gracefully as she tapped a finger on the table, eyes gleaming
