The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates A coward, a wastrel and a fool
Marcel had come across numerous individuals in his lifetime as a man seeking the ultimate cure to mortality, a quest he embarked on after the death of his master, the Poison Master.With the experience he had gathered, he was quite good at gauging an opponent's strength but when faced with a masked William, he found himself unable to do that.It was almost like he was standing before a great beast that would devour him should he step out of line.His heart palpitated, an act that hadn't happened in a long while, considering it was out of fear.“Who… are… you?” Marcel asked in a hoarse tone.“My identity is not important,” William replied. “What is important is the fact that we will have problems if you harm that girl or any of those people.”“I… paid… for… them.” “Then I'll repay you,” William said. “Just let them go.”Marcel blinked a few times, weighing the pros and cons of an exchange with William before ultimately nodding in agreement.Putting the vial aside, he took out a pen an
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Cultivation paths
Zara would have never expected that a casual walk through the forest with her grandfather in search of rare herbs would cause such a huge commotion as the one happening right now.Not only had they attracted the attention of a wild beast, they were ill-equipped to deal with it.Though she was a cultivator, she was what would be referred to as a Healer, which meant that she had no fighting skills.Usually, once one went down the cultivation path, they would be faced with four potential options: they could either be a Healer, an Alchemist, a Combatant,, or an Assassin.Very few were able to go down two paths at the same time and still expect to go far in their cultivation journey, and none in the history of mankind had managed to master all four paths, to her knowledge, of course.In any case, she had gone down the Healer path as her family, the Khan family, were known in the cultivation world as healers.Their company, Khan Pharmaceuticals, was one of the largest medical brands in the
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates I regret to inform you
Marcel grabbed Ava and dragged her to the waiting operating table, placing her on it without any effort, revealing the difference in strength between an established cultivator and a normal human. “Please, spare me… you don't have to do this!” Ava cried out as she saw her eyes flash before her eyes as Marcel tried to pour the contents of the vial he was holding into her mouth.Just then, a voice was heard.“That's enough.”Marcel paused, shifting his attention to the entrance of his workshop where a masked man in all black was standing.The only thing visible was the man's piercing blue eyes and his domineering aura that completely suppressed Marcel's eerie aura. Clearly, this was not just an ordinary man.“Let her go.” The masked man said as he took a step further into Marcel's workshop, the latter of which was scrutinizing him, almost like he was wondering whether he should attack or not.As William remained silent, his attention elsewhere, the guards saw this as him silently admit
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Dream Beetle
As they watched William leave, the two guards began to mock him. “Hmmph, he really thought that the young miss would fall for his lies.”“That's what he gets for thinking he can deceive us with his petty acts.”Just then, Zara spoke up, addressing the departing William. “Wait!”William paused and then, glanced back at Zara while the guards panicked.“Young Miss, don't tell me…”“Hush.” Zara scolded before shifting her attention back to the waiting William.“Can my grandfather truly be saved?” It was clear that she was trying to believe that William could truly save her grandfather.William nodded. “He can. Though the process is delicate, I am one hundred percent certain that I can pull it off.”Biting down on her lower lip, Zara pondered for a while before she finally replied. “Then please, help me save my grandfather.”“No, young Miss, you mustn't believe the words of a scammer!” The first guard cried out with the other remarking.“He clearly doesn't know what he is saying. He migh
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Zayn Khan
“Grandpa.” Zara breathed out in shock as she stared at her now-breathing grandfather.Zayn Khan, Zara’s grandfather, gasped for air while he kept his gaze on William.It was clear that unlike before, he was aware of his surroundings.“Grandpa,” Zara called out again, snapping him out of his momentary trance.Zayn reached out and stroked Zara's hair. “Zara, my dear granddaughter, it's truly you.”“Grandpa,” Zara muttered, her eyes wet once again but not out of sadness but instead of joy.She instinctively leaped into Zayn's arms, embracing him tightly while letting out the joy in her heart.The guards exchanged looks with one another, unsure of what to make of the current situation as they didn't expect such an outcome.Satisfied that his work was done, William made to leave only for Zayn to call out to him.“Young man!”William paused, glancing back at Zayn, who was scrutinizing him with clear eyes.“You saved me.”“I was only doing my job.” William calmly replied.“But it doesn't cha
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates A Khan conspiracy
“This is impossible, father, how did this happen?” Omar, Zara’s father remarked.Zayn snorted. “I thought you for so many years yet when I needed your expertise the most, you went ahead to give a rubbish diagnosis. All it took this man to save me was just one look. I should beat you for disappointing me.”“Father, I don't understand. You were clearly suffering from dementia.”“Best stop talking rubbish otherwise, don't blame me for beating you!” Zayn warned.Omar said nothing, though he didn't hesitate to glare at William, with the latter meeting his gaze calmly.“Dad, come with me, we have to head to the hospital to run some tests.”“Bah, I told you that focusing too much on modern mediums is going to make you small-minded, yet you still don't want to listen. Look here, this young man has cured me so there's no reason to carry out any other checks ups. Just take me home.”“But dad…”“I said take me home already. I need to rest, and yes, this young man is coming with us,” Zayn said, l
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates An offering
“I guess that's known all around, huh?” William said as he rubbed the top of his lip. Zara chuckled. “I had no idea you were such a capable man.”“Well, I pride myself on being a man of many talents.”Pursing her lips, Zara asked. “Why did you save my grandfather?”“I also already told you that.”“I know but it doesn't make sense that you don't want anything at all,” Zara said, feeling slightly suspicious.“Well, I don't,” William remarked. “And that won't be changing. Now then, if you'll excuse me, I'd like to get some rest.”“Wait.”“Hmm?”“Thank you.”“For?”“Saving my grandfather.”William nodded. “You're welcome.”“One more thing.”“Tell me.”Zara quickly reached into her pocket and pulled out a key card.“Take this.”“What is that?”“Keys to a beach house. It's yours now.”“I don't want it,” William said dismissively before turning to leave.“Please.”William paused in his tracks.“Take it as an offering.”“Offering?” William glanced back at Zara with a raised brow.“Yes, an of
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates He is no quack
Ali was stunned as he realized that Zayn was actually well again just like William had said.Did that mean his claim of the building being gifted to him was true as well?Soon, the duo arrived and Ali tried to step forward as he greeted them. "This junior pays respects to the patriarch."Zayn didn't even bother with him as he glanced at William, a smile on his lips.“Mister Belmont, I heard my daughter gave you a present without informing me. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of not immediately doing that when you saved me from certain death.”At the side, Ali trembled somewhat at the unexpected news that William was actually the one who healed his grandfather."Then it's good I met you here today.""I didn't think your family had a knack for taking back what they had already given away," William said, causing Zayn's expression to turn sour as he glanced at Ali."It would seem I have allowed your parents to indulge you for far too long, Ali.""No, Grandpa, it's nothing like that." "S

“Watch your mouth, asshat!” Harold coldly said only for William to raise a brow with his hands in his pocket.Snorting derisively, William soon left with Victoria while Harold could only stare at Victoria's endowed behind. Clicking his tongue as he struggled to understand why William was always so lucky with the ladies, Harold turned to leave only to get a call at that moment.Furrowing his brows, he picked it up only to discover that it was Elena Kingston.He went wide-eyed in an instant as he had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.Trembling, he answered the call. “Hello.”“Harold, you bastard!... How dare you do this?... What the hell are you doing at Magnificent Club with some other bitch!... Have you forgotten that I'm the one that got you the invite, yet you are spending it on another woman?”“That…”“I'm on my way there right now and if it turns out that you are there, don't think that you'll be able to survive my wrath!” After saying that, the call ended, leavi
This isn't over
Starting with the first thug, William dealt with each one without mercy, ensuring that by the time he was down to the last man, the thug had already wet himself in fright, his body trembling as he stared wide-eyed at William as though he were a demon.“You are the one they mentioned.” The thugs remarked as he took a step back.“Hmm?”“I knew your face was familiar, you are William Belmont.”William was surprised and asked. “You know me?”The thug gulped anxiously. “Yes, of course!... Mr. Belmont, I'm so sorry, this is all a misunderstanding.”Then, he yanked off his mask, revealing a face covered in scars.“I'm Bobby and I work for the Sinister Six.”“I see.” “I'm sorry, sir; if we had known it was you, we wouldn't have dared to come near you!”The other thugs finally caught on, realizing that the man they had been sent after was no small individual.They swiftly scrambled to their feet to apologize. “This is a huge misunderstanding!”“Please, have a smoke, Mister Belmont. We were b
I've got a job for you
After apologizing to William, Celia's father turned to Ava and Andre. “William here has warned us that the pill was fake and dangerous, but you two were the loudest objectors. I don't even know what to say about your foolishness anymore.”,Ava and Andre stood awkwardly with lowered heads.To think that their father had done the same thing but he was blaming them alone. The doctor's ears perked up at this exchange as he asked with a frown. “Pill?... Are you, by any chance, talking about a medicinal pill from the Heavenly Orchard?”Ava thought the doctor might have some insight and eagerly replied. “Yes, it's exactly that. Doctor, you can tell that the pill grandpa took was a genuine pill, right?”“Hmm, well…”“Heh, I knew it couldn't be fake since Harold got them directly from Heavenly Orchard. It's perfectly normal for Grandpa to faint. His body was just too weak for such powerful medicine.”Ava had already begun to toot her own horn, only for her analysis to be met with a cold laugh
Ava, shut up
William didn't owe the Rodriguez family anything and if not for his relationship with Diego, he wouldn't even be breaking bread with them.He could be anywhere else and he wouldn't have to go through the humiliation they put him through.Yet, time and again, he had been forced to step up and get them out of trouble, only to end up getting insulted.At this point in time, he was all but done with taking things lying down.He didn't wish to show the side he only showed to those he hated, but the Rodriguez family was pushing him closer to that line every single time their paths crossed. “William, please,” Celia muttered, only to receive a cold glare from him, causing her to back away in fright.Then, without saying anything, he stepped forward and quickly pressed several pressure points on Diego's body to stop the bleeding.With some therapeutic massage, Diego's breathing eventually steadied. If not for his good relationship with Diego and the fact that the old man was nothing like his
Don't push me
Celia frowned and said. “William, you may know something about medicine as a doctor but the medicinal pill is a closely guarded secret of the Heavenly Orchard. Claiming you know about it is ridiculous.”Harold, who has been watching with a smile, chimed in, “Since William claims my pill is fake, perhaps he could explain exactly how?”“A fake is a fake. What more explanation is needed?” William retorted. Harold sighed with feigned patience. “William, I think there's been a misunderstanding. Perhaps you are upset about Celia and me, but this pill was obtained at great expense through my connections at Heavenly Orchard. Don't you think it's going too far to insult my sincere gift like this?”His words immediately stirred the family's sympathy as they glared at William in disgust.Ava scolded. “William, if you can't say anything nice, then you are welcome to leave!”“That's enough, William!... It's one thing to be incompetent but being unable to accept others' success makes you truly pat
Ambrosia
After hearing what Ava had to say, Diego scowled and retired. “Such ignorance!... I've lived for more years than you have!... Do you think you are wiser than me?”“No, that's not…” Ava tried to explain only to be sharply cut off by Diego.“Listen here, I once had the privilege of tasting just half a glass of this at a noble family's home and I've never forgotten it!”The family turned to stare at William, who remained composed and said. “This wine lives up to its name as Ambrosia.”Diego nodded approvingly. “Well said, my boy. Now then, about the rest of the wine, hand it over quickly.”Chuckling, William calmly handed over the bottle and Diego's breathing quickened with excitement.He fought the urge to snatch the bottle from William,. exclaiming in vivid excitement. “Oh my, there's still a lot of it left. This would fetch nearly a million dollars on the market. You are quite generous!”“Dad, is this cheap wine really as amazing as you are claiming?” Celia's father asked skeptically.
Cheap wine
“Granddad, look at this.” Andre pulled up a decorated box of wine. “Harold brought this beautiful wine over, a fine Chateau Mouton-Rothschild 1945. We should all toast with this!”“Chateau Mouton-Rothschild 1945? That’s a really expensive wine, no?”“Yes, it is. It was three hundred thousand dollars a bottle!” Harold boasted.“What? Three hundred thousand dollars a bottle?!” everyone exclaimed in shock. The sky-high price had been way beyond their expectations.The Rodriguez family was pretty well–off, but even they hadn’t had a chance to try something this expensive.“Why’d you spend all that money on this, Harold? It’s too much, no?” Ava questioned, though pride laced her tone.“Three hundred thousand isn’t much. I have another barrel of this at home, so please, you all enjoy,” Harold said with a prideful grin.“Mr. O'Malley, you’re really generous.”“Yeah, we’re really in for a treat tonight!”The family began praising Harold for his wine, feeding his ego further.“Hey, boy, look a

I’m not done with you!” Seeing as the situation was unfavorable, Evans and his bodyguards left in a hurry with their tails between their legs.A wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him.With his noble status, it wasn’t worth it to put his life on the line.

If he steps out of line, let me know.” William said after which he took his leave with John following closely behind.***The next morning.Celia was preparing to leave the house to meet with Harold when she got a call on her phone.She glanced at the screen only for her demeanor to shift as she gulped hard before pro
