“You may call us the last thing you would see before your death, the end of the road… whatever floats your boat.” The second person said with a chuckle.

With a casual thought, Elijah made a guess. “You are assassins.”

“Ding ding ding looks like we have a winner.”

Elijah was rather surprised that there were those in the underworld who were bold enough to go for the bounty Hacksaw had placed on his head.

It seemed not everyone cared for their lives… though judging from the two individuals before him, they seemed like the kind that had little regard for life.

Just as he was about to address them, there was a thunderous sound of footsteps.

Elijah and the two assassins glanced back to find a group of thugs armed with machetes and steel pipes rushing in.

“Hah, so you actually got some help.” one of the assassins said before adding. “Unfortunately, this won't be enough to cause us any trouble!”

It was clear that the assassins didn't take the thugs seriously.

Elijah raised his brows as he co

    “Bastard, you are ex-military, right?... I would like to see how you escape these two monsters!” Bernard exclaimed with glee.Elijah regarded the two before inquiring. “Do you lot know who I am?”“Of course. It is an honor to meet with the famed King of the North.”The silence that followed was profound as Bernard couldn't believe what he'd heard.King of the North?... There was no way they were referring to Elijah Silva, the useless son-in-law of the Wesen family who was basically a kept husband, right?As Bernard struggled to come to terms with what he'd heard about Elijah's true identity, the twin assassins licked their lips with relish as they took out their sickles once again, brandishing them with ill intent.“Brother, let me have a go at him first.” Zero, the first of the two assassins, suggested with a chuckle, with Deone replying.“Sure, but you'd best not start crying for help.”“Hehe, don't underestimate me!” Zero exclaimed as he arched his body slightly.There was a burst

    Deone’s desire to survive pushed him to rush out of the parking lot as he was only focused on one thought.He had to tell the other assassins to avoid the bounty on Elijah's head.The King of the North was not someone they could afford to go against!Looking at Deone's retreating back, Elijah didn't bother to chase after him, because he knew that his internal organs had suffered fatal damage.Meanwhile, Zero continued to struggle to no avail.If he had known that Elijah was so powerful, he wouldn't have dared to approach him even if he had the courage of a thousand men.“I'll give you a chance to live.” Elijah coldly stated as he glanced at Zero. “Tell me the names of all those who accepted the bounty, and I'll spare your life.”“You want me to betray my brothers?... In your dreams!” Zero glared at him and used his last remaining strength to channel his spiritual energy into his core.There was a crisp sound and Zero's core exploded, resulting in a terrifying wave of energy that would

    Alice decided not to bother herself since Elijah said that everything was okay.She was initially worried that Celeste might try to get Elijah to leave her out of a misconception that he wasn't worthy of her.Thankfully, that was not the case.Pursing her lips, she decided to ask a question after Elijah had gotten into the car and left the parking lot.“Why don't you want to reveal your identity to the public?”“Hmm?” Elijah raised a brow with Alice quickly explaining.“I mean, if you do that, no one would dare to underestimate you again and you won't be insulted.” In truth, Alice didn't like the fact that despite everything Elijah had done, people still saw him as a wastrel when, in fact, he was perhaps the greatest man in the empire.He was a hero that has placed his life on the line to protect the empire.Such a person was undeserving of the humiliation Elijah was forced to experience each day.Elijah let out a sigh as he replied. “Why do you think?”“...

    Even as the man dangled an amazing offer to most ladies he met, what these ladies didn't know was that he didn't actually own the car and the presidential suite was fake as well.The moment they got into his car, they would immediately be drugged and brought to a rented unit.After he had his fun with them and took a few pictures, he would then threaten the woman to not only stay quiet but to do as he wished.One might think it was just him, but the truth was that he was merely part of a ring of criminals who involved themselves in trafficking, all of whom used the same strategy to capture unsuspecting victims.Taking the time to scrutinize Celeste, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva due to how amazing she looked.Truly a beauty in every sense of the word!Pursing his lips, he remarked. “Hundred thousand.”Seeing that Celeste wasn't the slightest bit moved by the offer, he made another one with a smug look on his face. “Three hundred thousand.”Three hundred thousand was definite

    “Elijah!” Celeste called out while waving her hand.Elijah walked over with Jeffery who seemed quite pleased to have tagged along.Just as Elijah came close and was about to acknowledge Celeste's presence, Zephyr remarked. “Where did you come from?... Didn't you see me here before you came over?”“Huh?” Elijah raised a brow.“Get lost, or else I'll make you regret coming over here!”Elijah glanced at Celeste who had a frown on her face. “Do you know this man?”“No, actually he is bothering me,” Celeste said.“I see.”“Let's leave,” Celeste said as she got to her feet.Since Zephyr didn't wish to excuse her, then she would just change locations.It was as simple as that.“To where?” Elijah asked.“I know of this cool Chinese place in the suburbs. It's not fancy, but their food is definitely to die for.”“How did you find such a place?” Elijah couldn't help but ask. “Hmmph, because I'm rich doesn't mean I can't explore the suburbs.”“I see.” Elijah thought nothing of the change and so

    As Jeffery moved to do as instructed, Celeste inquired. “You believe me?”“You don't look like the kind of person that would lie about such a thing and it would be wrong of me to look away after learning that such a despicable thing is happening in this city.”Meanwhile, Zephyr was on the floor, barely conscious.By the time Zephyr's backup arrived, Elijah was seated at a table with Celeste and Jeffrey, the trio indulging in a cool cup of coffee while Zephyr was tied up next to their table.Stefan, who was watching from a safe distance could only shake his head as he pitied Celeste. “It's over.” He said. “My dear Celeste, why didn't you leave with me when I told you?... Now see, no one would be able to save you from the wrath of JP and his subordinates.As for Zephyr, he immediately began to cry out. “Barolt, save me, these bastards are trying to kill me!”A fierce-looking man in his forties, wearing a tank top and shorts, approached, radiating an intense aura that left one listless.

    After Elijah told Jeffery how to handle Barolt and Zephyr, he quickly left to pick up Claire.By the time he arrived, it was peak hour for parents to pick up their children after school was over.Due to the last incident that happened, security had been tightened and though the school was open, not all classes were active.In any case, he hurried to the playground only to find that Claire was not there which was odd.Pursing his lips, he decided to ask the teacher watching over the students at the playground.“Hello, do you know Claire Silva?... I'm a father, I came to pick her up.”“Huh?” The teacher stared at him in confusion. “Claire's aunt came to pick her up ten minutes ago. Haven't you guys discussed it?”“So her aunt came to pick her up today, I had no idea. Sorry to trouble you.” Elijah turned around and was about to leave when he paused, quickly realizing that something was wrong.If the aunt the teacher was talking about was Maddie, that would make no sense because she had

How I would die just to have her in my bed for a single night.”“You are so bad.”Gerald guffawed. “I'm only speaking my truth.”“Well then, fine then, how about this?... I've already abducted her daughter, so that means she would naturally be anxious, right?”Gerald nodded. “That's true.”“So how about you take this opportunity to get her to come and fulfill your wish?... Don't you agree?... Besides that little bastard is with us, so she will have to do whatever you want her to. When Elijah comes and sees this scene with his own eyes, he will be in greater misery than anyone because there's nothing he can do about it!”Hearing this, Gerald couldn't help but erupt with joy. “You are absolutely right!...

    The two bodyguards surrounding Rex were instantly kicked away with two loud bangs before landing hard on the clean floor of the airport.They even skidded away a long distance.“How dare you lay a hand on my friend, Mordred Abnomar? Do you want to have your legs broken too?”The cold and merciless voice filled the air, making Mordred’s expression immediately change.“Eli… Elijah Silva?!” His heart was beating wildly as he looked at the familiar young man who suddenly appeared in front of him, filled with disbelief.“Elijah, you’re here!” After hearing Elijah speak, Rex immediately looked over with a look of surprise and hurried toward him.When Mordred saw that Rex was acquainted with Elijah, his heart sank to rock bottom.He suddenly remembered that Rex seemed to have asked him if he was sent by Elijah when they first met.But at the time, he didn’t quite care.He finally realized that Rex was referring to his arch-nemesis, Elijah Silva!Elijah turned to face Rex and asked in concern

    Mordred said indignantly, “No, my son’s condition is very serious, and we can’t afford to delay treatment any longer! How about this? I’ll give you another six million dollars now to make it ten million! When my son’s legs get better, I’ll give you another four million!”Rex was really enraged this time. “Can’t you understand English? It’s not about money! Get out of the way!”Then he turned around and tried to bypass them.“No, you can’t leave!” Mordred’s face turned gloomy, and he waved his hand. Both his bodyguards trapped Rex in between them, preventing him from leaving.Mordred narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly, “Dr. Holding, I’ve already told you just now that the Abnomars are one of the top families in the country. And I will soon be the next helmsman of the family, and my son will become my successor. You understand what I mean, right?... Although I don’t want to use power to oppress you, my son has a noble status that no one in Crystal Falls can compare to! So I don’

  • A forceful request

    Over the past few years, his attainments in the field of medicine had been rather high, and his fame had risen again and again along with it.He often had many people coming up to him all of a sudden to try to get to know her or ask her to help treat someone, so she had been rather annoyed.Generally speaking, he would keep his whereabouts private and known only to a few people.Clearly, the middle-aged man in front of her was one of those who came to her because he had heard about her somewhere.Rex had never been polite to such people. “I’m sorry. I don’t know you, nor do I intend to get to know you. I have something important to do now. I’ll get going.”Then he walked toward the side.But just as he took two steps, the two bodyguards in black suits immediately stood in front of him.“What do you mean by this?” Rex immediately flew into a rage and glared at Mordred with a frown.Mordred said domineeringly, though with an apologetic look on his face, “Dr. Holding, a doctor told me th

  • Nice to meet you, doctor

    The attending doctor’s heart jumped, and he felt rather suffocated because of the strain on his neck.There was nothing he could do about Mordred’s fury!“Wait, wait! Even if you act like this, I still can’t cure Mr. Abnomar’s legs… Oh, right! If you can find the expert Rex Holding, Mr. Abnomar’s legs might still be curable!”“Rex Holding? Who is that?” Mordred immediately asked, finding a straw to clutch at.“Uh, Miss Rex Holding is an extremely competent doctor. Rumor has it that he has extraordinary medical skills, almost reaching a legendary level. Of course, this might be a little exaggerated. But his medical skills are really superb. If there’s someone in this world who can cure Mr. Abnomar’s legs, it must be him!” The attending doctor hurriedly revealed what he knew.Mordred, overjoyed for a moment, and hurriedly asked, “Is that so? That’s great! Where is he now!”“This…” A look of hesitation appeared on the doctor’s face.In fact, a medical practitioner of Rex’s level wasn’t s

  • Off to the airport

    According to the information obtained from Leo’s investigation, William had been going to work and getting off work on time every day. He didn’t go to gambling dens or have any conflicts with anyone.Logically speaking, no one should have spent so much money to get him killed.Seeing Elijah remaining silent, Valerie felt extremely guilty. “I’m sorry, I… I’m not of any help to you. If I had known earlier that this would happen, I should have asked my husband about it clearly!”Elijah shook his head. He was well aware that since Trevor was willing to trade his life for money that could save his daughter’s life, he would certainly also protect the safety of his wife and daughter. Thus, he would never have taken the initiative to disclose any information about the person who had paid him for murder.Elijah was somewhat disappointed that there wasn’t much useful information from Valerie.But since he had given his promise to Valerie and her daughter, Mikey, he naturally wouldn’t forget abo

  • Seeking answers

    Elijah looked at the little girl hugging Valerie tightly.She was emaciated, feeble, and extremely pale, looking as though she was about to fall at any moment.This poor little boy immediately made Elijah think about his daughter, Claire.Both of them were almost the same age, and yet this little boy was so pitiful that Elijah couldn’t help feeling a trace of sympathy for him.Elijah admired Trevor and Valerie as parents.They might not necessarily be good or capable people, but they were indeed a pair of good parents who loved their son greatly.Moreover, Elijah didn’t want to see yet another person face impending death just because they couldn’t afford to pay their medical expenses.This was why Elijah decided to help this family—so that this little boy could live healthily in the future.He reckoned that this little boy’s illness shouldn’t have reached its worst yet. Besides, tens of thousands meant nothing to Elijah now.“Your son is about the same age as my daughter,” Elijah said

  • A complicated situation

    The little boy was terrified as he stumbled over to hug his mother.“Mommy, Mommy…” The little boy didn’t know what was going on, so he simply hugged Valerie’s legs tightly in panic and burst into tears.Valerie pulled the thin and feeble boy into her arms as tears streamed down incessantly.“I really don’t know how to apologize to you, but my son has cancer, and we can’t afford such expensive medical expenses. Mikey’s condition is getting worse and worse. We really have no way out!“Just a few days ago, someone found my husband and instructed him to run over someone for fifty thousand dollars. We were very reluctant at first, but we really had no other way. Mikey’s treatment can no longer be delayed, and we really can’t bear to see our obedient and sensible son passing away just like that… But this is murder after all. I persuaded my husband not to do it, but he also had serious cancer. His cancer cells had metastasized and spread. He said that since he couldn’t live for long anyway,

  • No need to be scared

    Leo had casually taken this stack of bills from the car just now, and it happened to come in handy now.There were around sixty bills.The middle-aged woman’s eyes were immediately glued to the stack of bills.Most people living in such a shabby place were struggling to make ends meet and earned meager wages.This stack of bills was worth about a thousand dollars, enough to cover a few months’ worth of living expenses for the woman.All that was required of her was to ask someone to come out.It was really effortless.For people used to being poor, such a temptation was really difficult to resist.Thus, after being conflicted for a while, the middle-aged woman finally opened the door, reached out to accept the money, and said with some slight embarrassment, “Ah, you are so polite. It’s just a small favor. You’re being too kind, haha.”After smiling, she yelled inside, “Valerie, come out!”Two seconds later, a female voice sounded inside the house, “Aunt, you called me? Wait a minute.

  • Investigating a man named Trevor

    The phone call was from Leo, who quickly explained what he had discovered.The driver who had hit Albert two days ago was named Trevor Hathaway.After losing control of his car and hitting Albert, he died in another tragic car accident nearby.Of course, Elijah suspected that this was very likely not purely an accident, and the information Leo had found out proved this.Trevor’s wife and son had suddenly vanished from their apartment the day before the accident.So, Leo had targeted his investigation here to get a clear explanation from Trevor’s wife and son.Now, he finally found their whereabouts.“Elijah, do you need me to go bring these two people back so that you can question them? Their hiding place is nearby. It’s a private house near the outskirts of the city,” Leo said.Trevor wasn’t very old, so Elijah reckoned that his son must be rather young.If they suddenly brought them over, they might frighten them.Elijah thought about it and said, “Let’s go over together.”“Yes!” Le
