Alice didn't immediately recognize the lady approaching causing her to inquire. “I'm sorry, do I know you?”“Don't tell me you have forgotten me.” The lady said in forced enthusiasm prompting Alice to respond.“I'm sorry, not really.”“Oh my days, I guess that's what happens when a woman has to experience hardship, she starts to forget.” The lady said.Even though she tried to play it off as a casual statement, it was easy to guess that she was taking a subtle jab at Alice.“It's me, Luna Sarabia.”Alice paused, taking the time to sift through her memory before she happened upon any recollection of Luna, and in truth, it wasn't pretty.Even though she was from a prestigious family, Luna was known among several circles as a promiscuous woman who was willing to do anything as long as she got paid.There was even an incident that occurred between her and four other students that nearly got her expelled, if not that her family stepped in.After that, she was forced to withdraw and finish
The Almighty God of War Returns Do as you please
“Oh come on,” Luna said in a condescending tone. “He doesn't even look like he can afford decent clothes for himself, yet you think that the man you call your husband would be able to get clothes for you?”Alice rolled her eyes as she retorted. “I don't believe that is any of your concern, Luna. Perhaps you should focus on your husband and stop looking at other people's husbands.”“How dare you!” Luna glared at her. “I'm only trying to help, but since you think you have it all figured out, then don't blame me if you end up getting humiliated later on.”“I wouldn't dream of it,” Alice said.As she turned to leave with Elijah, Kendrick spoke up. “I don't believe I asked you to leave. We are still talking.”Alice was about to lash out at him when Elijah placed a hand on her shoulder.It seemed Kendrick and Luna had taken his silence for weakness and it was time to correct that misconception.“I don't believe we need your permission to do as we want.” “Did I ask for your opinion, mongrel
The Almighty God of War Returns Beaten like a dog
As the commotion reached its peak, with customers in the store taking out their phones to record the scene while the security guards surrounded Elijah to ensure he wouldn't run away, the store manager soon arrived.There was no way she could ignore what was happening, considering it had escalated to such an extent.She'd already been informed of the situation by the salesperson who had approached Luna and Kendrick; hence, her view of the situation was skewed against Elijah and Alice.“Mr. Vaughn.” She said as she approached Kendrick.Kendrick glared at her. “What do you want?”“My name is Louisa, I'm the store manager.”“Oh, so you are the one in charge. Don't think you can escape what has happened here today. Velvet Fashions would have to explain why they allow hooligans to enter their store!”“Apologies sir, it wasn't our intention for such a thing to happen.”“Hmmph, tell that to my lawyer. You guys are going to pay for my medical bills!”“No sir, please be merciful.” Kendrick did
The Almighty God of War Returns An interesting turn of events
Kendrick was beaten so much to the point that he didn't even dare to utter a sound.Only then did Harvey leave him be, shifting his attention to Elijah and Alice, both of whom had witnessed his brutality.Meanwhile, Louisa wished to say something only for Harvey to glare in her direction, shutting her up instantly.“Mr. Vaughn, you came rather quickly.” Elijah intoned with Harvey trembling as he heard his voice.Taking a few steps forward, everyone thought that Harvey intended to dish out the same level of violence he'd given to Kendrick, to Elijah.So imagine their surprise when he dropped to his knees and bowed to Elijah and Alice.Everyone in the boutique was dumbfounded, especially Luna.After being married to Kendrick for so long, how could she not know Harvey?He was a no-nonsense individual that was remarkably arrogant.Even Kendrick's father, who was his elder brother and head of the Vaughn family, didn't dare to force Harvey to his knees.Yet on this day, Harvey Vaughn was kn
The Almighty God of War Returns An impulsive young miss
Velvet Fashions was one of the many brands owned by the Ainsworth estate.Unlike most other families that had family companies, the Ainsworths didn't have that.As they were a noble house that had grown their wealth to an unimaginable degree during the monarchic era of Albion, they saw no reason to create a company.Instead, they busied themselves with investing in various brands and making them their own; that way, they wouldn't have to go through the stress of building a particular brand from scratch.So far, the Ainsworth family owned several brands in several different sectors, each one worth at least ten million dollars.Altogether, it was estimated that if they were to merge all the brands they owned, the net worth of the merged company would be closing in on ten billion dollars!In any case, as the heiress of the Ainsworth estate, Celeste hardly bothered with the brands they owned, only taking action in severe cases.But when she received a report of the situation in Velvet, sh
The Almighty God of War Returns Celeste's probing
Silence reigned for a few seconds after Alice asked the question plaguing for so long with Celeste meeting her gaze calmly.Just as she felt like she had struck a nerve, Celeste spoke up, chuckling in amusement as she replied. “Do you think I have an ulterior motive?”“... Do you not?” Alice asked, feeling skeptical.Celeste beamed. “Well, it might seem that way but I promise that it's nothing like that.”“Then, why?”“Well, I've always admired you. You're a genius and I would like to build a relationship with you.”“You wish to build a relationship with me?”“Of course,” Celeste said. “I mean, you were able to attract investments from Jeffery Felton and Gilbert Strong, two powerhouses in the corporate world. So naturally, I'd like to get in on whatever they saw.”“Oh,” Alice muttered, a trace of disappointment welling up within her.Even though she had expected that Celeste wasn't acting all friendly for no reason, she didn't realize it was for such a reason.But then again, it was b
The Almighty God of War Returns Meeting with Zero
“According to what we recovered, they are most likely aiding Past and Future because they believe they'd be able to get a huge reward at the end,” Thomas reported.Elijah could shake his head, disappointed that civilians could be so easily convinced.The treasure that the disciples of Chronos were searching for was indeed valuable, but retrieving it would cause untold destruction to the entire city.He wondered if they would be able to live with such an outcome.Perhaps, if they could easily be bought with money, they wouldn't care about what happened to the city.Regardless, it was best to ensure that both Past and Future were caught before the situation got out of hand.“Any idea on who the family is?”“Not yet. But they are affiliated with the underworld so talking with Zero would help us uncover their true identity.”“Alright then, organize a meeting. I'll go there myself.”“Understood.”With that, the call ended, and Elijah drove out of the boutique.It didn't take too long befor
The Almighty God of War Returns High-risk individual
Considering Elijah was seen as a High-risk Individual, few could be considered his equal in a one-on-one fight.With this understanding, the thugs immediately became respectful. “Right this way.”Elijah was led through the entrance which led to a spacious hall adorned with expensive ornaments.One of the thugs remarked. “I'll inform Zero of your presence. For now, please take a seat.”“Alright.”It didn't take long before Zero arrived, escorted by the thug who went to get him and an additional one who seemed to serve as a bodyguard.He was a buff man with faint wisps of spirit energy floating about his figure.It was easy to tell that he was a cultivator like Elijah.Judging from Zero's physique, it was clear he was most likely a Combatant cultivator, which meant those who focused more on offensive skills when cultivating.He sat across from Elijah and scanned him briefly before speaking up. “My boys told me you are a High-risk Individual. I rather doubt it so I'm here to test it out.

Elijah Silva, don't be too arrogant!
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
Don't push your luck
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
