The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates An exquisite piece of art
“What are you doing?” Kiara questioned as she struggled to understand what was happening. “This man is a pauper!... He can't even afford a full three-square meal. What lies has he told you?”Dennis glared at her. “Just shut up and stop talking. I'm still not done with you.”Kiara trembled as she backed away while Harold took the opportunity to slip away.Once William's things were ready for takeaway, he turned his attention to the clothes Kiara had picked for herself.“I'd like those as well.” “Sir?”“Pack up those clothes as well,” William repeated with Dennis immediately giving the order to his workers.As one of the workers parked, they remarked. “This lady should be thankful that this mysterious man is willing to let her escape embarrassment despite her attempting to humiliate him.”Kiara naturally heard them and she couldn't help but feel even more humiliated.Once the packing was done, she tried to take the items only for William to inquire.“What are you doing?”“Didn't you pa
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Slight change in plans
Even though Victoria framed it as a casual dinner between the two of them, it was anything but that. The truth was that tonight, the Smith family would be hosting a delegation of important individuals from a neighboring city and she was well aware that some of those that would be attending had eyes for her.So to avoid having to play the usual game of avoiding them to avoid awkward situations, she decided to use William's presence to deter them instead.Of course, that wasn't the only reason she wished to take him along to the event as her partner but she also didn't wish to make that known as well.She would play her cards slowly after which William's response would decide the end result.“Now then, if you'll excuse me, I have to decide on what I will be wearing for this evening,” Victoria remarked, causing William to raise a brow.“It's two in the afternoon.”“And?”“When is the dinner?”“Give or take, six in the evening.”“You see where I'm going with this?” William couldn't help
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Making a bet
William wasn't offended by Lionel's retort as he calmly remarked. “When in doubt, endeavor to find out.”Lionel frowned. “It seems like you are not going to back down until I educate you. Fine then, go ahead. What condition am I suffering from based on your diagnosis?”“Based on the fact that you have a weak pulse and you often become breathless, I'd say you are terminally ill.”“Just from that?” Lionel scoffed. “Did you take into account the fact that I may have exercised before now or the fact that I may have taken something before now?... But no, you can't wait to reveal just how much of a quack you are.”“Those could be taken into account, but the fact is that the illness plaguing you is not physical as you are made to believe,” William explained only to be rebuffed by Lionel.“Hah, just listen to this fool spout rubbish without hesitation. I'd have to petition the Medical Association to revoke your license before you kill a patient!”“You can do as you wish, I've already given my
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Surprise attack
Once the workers realized that Victoria had appeared, they didn't hesitate to direct their anger at her.“You vile scum, how can you do this to us?... You are the one that ordered the project manager not to pay us, didn't you?”“How can you be celebrating in your lavish parties while your workers are suffering?... Are you even human?”“You may be beautiful but you have an ugly heart!” They held nothing back as they lashed at Victoria, seeking to ruin her image as best they could.Victoria was frightened as this was the first time she was faced with such a situation.Before she was officially announced as heiress of the Smith family, she had made sure to deal with the corrupt executives within the family business in a bid to ensure that the workers would be well taken care of as she understood that only when the workers are happy would the work be done properly.Unfortunately, it seemed her efforts were in vain as a project manager had ended up cheating his workers.She had already as
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Twin assassins
“Who the hell are you?” Hacksaw questioned as he stared at William.During his time as an assassin working with his twin brother, Reaper, there had never been a situation when they struggled to kill a person.Their superior cultivation and skills ensured that their targets always met a gruesome fate at their hands. Yet at this point, when the odds were in their favor, Hacksaw had a worrying notion as he stared at William; if they didn't stop now, their career as assassins would surely come to an end.Contrary to what they thought, William was neither weak nor was he incapable of surviving their attacks.The only reason he hadn't acted yet was because of Victoria which meant that if she was absent, they would already be history.With that in mind, Hacksaw bellowed. “Brother!”Realizing the situation was dire, Reaper rushed forward and attacked, but he didn't target William, instead aiming for Victoria.William unleashed a spiritual energy wave, shoving them back before proceeding to p
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates The right call
But then, William didn't immediately take his leave as he knew that Katie was also in danger.He guessed that the person behind this attack was the same one who had tried to poison Katie and had also tried to abduct Victoria on their way to the welfare center.Though it was unclear what their objective was, it was clear enough that it needed Victoria and Katie to be fulfilled.With that in mind, William immediately hurried towards the back door which he guessed they had used to evacuate the guests.By the time he arrived at the emergency exit, he saw that most of the guests had already fled the scene, but thankfully, Katie was still there.“No, I'm not leaving without big sister!... Go and help her!” Katie said, proving too stubborn for the guards.The two exchanged looks and then, in that moment, came to a decision.With things as they were, if they didn't take action, they would fail in the task that was assigned to them.Indeed, they weren't actually trying to protect Victoria.It
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Breaking News
“What did you do?” Tanya asked as she stood before William, both of whom were currently on Tanya's porch.“I didn't do anything,” William replied calmly. “Someone is targeting Victoria and Katie. Do you know anyone that would gain something from their disappearance?”Tanya hesitated before ultimately replying. “Daniel.”“Who is that?”“The first son and Victoria as well as Katie's elder brother.”“Why would he be the one to gain?”“He was meant to be the heir of the Smith Consortium but the patriarch of the Smith family, Victoria's grandfather, instead chose Victoria as heiress, leaving him and a few others in the family disgruntled. Most in the family support Daniel but the patriarch doesn't.”“So if something happened to Victoria and Katie…”“He would most likely be the one to take over.”“... Madness.” William breathed out.To think that a person would choose money and power over their family.No… he had experienced such a thing with Celia.There was no reason it couldn't happen wi
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Somebody... help me
Just as William was about to apply the final stroke, his phone rang, jolting him from his concentrated state.“Darn it.” He cursed as he picked up the phone. “John, you better have some good news.”“That and bad news.” John hastily replied. “Good news is I have the ingredients. The bad news is you have to run away right now!”“Why?” William asked only to pause as he sensed people approaching.According to what he could tell, there were quite a number of them, and they were armed.“The police are coming to arrest you!”William's expression shifted as the next moment, the front door to his apartment was broken down.“Police, surrender now!” a voice bellowed as numerous footsteps rushed in both from the front and the back doors.William immediately picked up what he needed and rushed out of the bedroom just as a few policemen arrived there.“Stop there!” one bellowed as he shot out a taser.William caught the two wires, and the electricity went through him, but he felt nothing, allowing

Get lost
However, regardless of the reason, the killer panicked in the face of impending death and hurriedly said, “Don’t… don’t kill me! I’ll tell you anything you want to know! Yes, it was a young man named Harold O'Malley who gave me a hundred and fifty thousand to get me to help him kill Paul Hendricks without leaving a trace! If you have any other questions, I will definitely tell you everything I know! Just don’t kill me! Please… ah!”William frowned and picked a small stone on the table next to him.Then he flicked it at the killer.Like a bullet out of a gun, the marble-sized stone directly pierced through the brow of the killer, making him stop speaking.He would never have the chance to say anything again in his life.If the killer could be as tough as he was at the beginning and abide by the rules of his industry, perhaps William would have still thought highly of him.But William didn’t see the need to be kind to someone who was greedy for money, afraid of death, and would kill any
Fishing out the real culprit
Paul and Victoria had previously been engaged, and through his intuition, William sensed that there might be some kind of connection between the two.The most direct speculation William made was that someone didn’t want the marriage alliance between the Smiths and the Hendricks to happen.The killer in black sneered and said adamantly, “Do you think I will tell you? In our line of work, the rule of thumb is to keep our lips sealed about our clients’ information. I won’t tell even if you kill me!”William raised his eyebrows.The killer seemed to be quite a person of principle.But seeing the panic on his face that he couldn’t hide, William reckoned that he probably wouldn’t be as tight-lipped as he claimed to be.If subjected to some torture methods, he certainly wouldn’t be so unrelenting.William had more than a hundred ways to force this killer to speak.But William really couldn’t be bothered.“The person who sent you to kill Paul Hendricks is Harold O'Malley, right?” William sudd
Just be careful
Victoria was irked by his interrogative tone, and she retorted aggressively, “What does his death have to do with me? I only just found out about his death! Besides, I became an adult long ago, and it’s my freedom to be with anyone I want. You have no right to interfere with my life!”She had already guessed through her father’s words that many people must have suspected that William was the culprit behind Paul’s death.But she wasn’t sure if this matter had anything to do with him for now and thus obviously wouldn’t expose the fact that the young man was William.Sir Smith was infuriated. “You unfilial daughter, how dare you speak to me like that?! Wait for me in Avalon. Don’t go anywhere. I’ll rush there right now. When I arrive, you’ll come with me to see the Hendricks and explain everything clearly!”With that, he hung up lividly.Victoria put down the phone and began to feel ill at ease.Does Paul’s death really have something to do with William?If he’s really the culprit, the H
Paul Hendricks is dead!?
“What did you say? William Belmont?!” Stefan’s eyes suddenly widened, and he instantly stood up with a look of disbelief.The middle-aged man didn’t dare to delay and quickly said, “According to the statements of Paul’s friends, William Belmont appeared on Twin Peaks Mountain, and he was called there by Victoria Smith. He had an intense conflict with Paul. There are more than twenty people who can testify!... Although there’s no direct evidence that he’s related to the car accident that happened to Paul, he’s very suspicious! That’s because Paul has a great feud with William Belmont, and he even hired a hitman to kill him. But he failed in the end, so William Belmont very likely bears a strong grudge against Paul. That’s why he killed him on his way back to the city!”The Hendricks family had actually heard a little about the grudge between Paul and William because of Victoria.But no one expected that the feud between the two would intensify to the point that Paul would hire a hitman
Assasinated
Of course the fact that he lost left a bad taste in his mouth and so, Paul wasn’t in the mood to stay at Twin Peaks Mountain any longer and drove back home.He reckoned that he would definitely figure out how to deal with William after asking his brother, father, or grandfather about it once he got home.Twin Peaks Mountain was located in the outskirts of Avalon, far away from the city center.When he was passing through a section of deserted woods, the street lights on both sides of the road suddenly went out all at once.“Damn it!” Paul was shocked, and he was in complete darkness.His car was the only one on the road.For some reason, he had an extremely ominous hunch, and he felt that something dangerous was about to happen.Paul got the creeps and subconsciously turned up the volume of the rock music playing on the car stereo in a bid to relieve the panic within him with the noise.At the same time, he also floored the gas pedal and drove out of the blacked-out area at top speed.
An exciting victory
At this moment, Seamus finally understood that William really dared to crash into his car!“Lunatic! You’re f*cking nuts!” Seamus cursed.But in the end, he still didn’t dare to put his life at risk and perish together with William.So he could only turn the steering wheel abruptly and swerve to the side of the road when William’s car was about to touch his car’s rear.The width of the mountain road was actually wide enough to fit two cars.Seamus chose the side near the mountain wall, which was relatively safer.If William messed up when overtaking, he wouldn’t be at fault!But Seamus soon widened his eyes in shock.William had somehow pulled a stunt and managed to lift the tires near the side of the road and was driving along the road with his car tilted.Meanwhile, the two tires on the other side were moving on the guardrail of the mountain road.The position was strange yet beautiful. He immediately overtook Seamus!While William’s car was moving steadily in front of his, Seamus f
Phoenix Blade
The sword landed on the ground with a loud sound.The masked figure was shocked and immediately tried to snatch the sword back, but William had already beaten him to it and stepped on the thick, long sword.“Phoenix Blade?” William glanced at the sword under his feet with a look of bewilderment.He recognized it as one of the four treasures that his master had created.There was the Phoenix Blade, the Turtle Shield, the Dragon Fang, and the Tiger Armor.His master had created them and gifted them to four peerless masters across the world.To think that he would find one of such items in the hands of a petty goon.William was nothing short of disgusted.The attacker tried to take back the blade but William didn't even waste any more time on him, utilizing his aura to hold him down before landing a flying kick that sent the attacker flying a great distance and slamming into a tree.The attacker tried to stand up again only to spit up a mouthful of blood and collapse to the ground, never
An impressive expert?
Victoria naturally saw him too, and her heart tensed up immediately while her face turned pale.Having experienced two assassinations that almost cost her her life, Victoria had become extremely sensitive to strangely dressed people who suddenly appeared at untimely junctures. She immediately asked William, “Who… who is he? Is he here to assassinate me?”William narrowed his eyes slightly.This figure didn’t look tall, and his walking stance and aura seemed extremely oppressive.‘He must be an impressive expert!’ William immediately thought.At the same time, he had also confirmed a conjecture of his.Back when Paul suggested that they compete in car racing, William already felt that something was amiss and thought that Paul must have had something else planned.It seemed that the person who suddenly appeared should be the ‘surprise’ that Paul had specially prepared for him.In that case, the reason Paul proposed such a strange bet with Victoria and even asked her to call a friend ove
Encountering a slight delay
The friction between the tires and the road immediately resulted in an ear-piercing screech as the rear half of the car formed a semicircle arc.“Ah!” Victoria closed her eyes and screamed.If the seatbelt wasn’t wrapped tightly around her waist, she would have been flung out of the car by now.In the Ferrari behind, Seamus watched in shock as the Corvette formed such a large arc. “He must be out of his mind! That’s crazy!”William actually didn’t slow down at all at this nearly 90-degree sharp bend.Instead, he did a huge thrilling drift at top speed and rushed past it!It was a steep mountain road where a slight deviation could cause you to swerve off the road and fall down the cliff, which would be fatal!Even a professional racer like Seamus wouldn’t dare to use such a technique on such a dangerous track, yet William managed to pull it off!Moreover, his drift was perfect, and even from a professional viewpoint, Seamus couldn’t find any faults with it.Is William Belmont really no
