..Landon and Jasmine left the scene in Jasmine’s car.While the driver continued driving both of them chatted.“Landon I want to thank you again for last night. If it wasn’t for you I don’t know where I would’ve been right now.” Jasmine said with gratitude.“You are welcome.” Landon smiled. “By the way, I was able to get some information from the leader of the group last night.”Hearing his words, Jasmine's expression suddenly became grim. He could tell that the lady was not happy about the fact that she was almost killed.“That must be Willie. A known errand boy that can be bought with money in the underworld. So who sent him?” “Micheal Holloway. That’s the name of the person who ordered your assassination. Does it ring a bell?”Jasmine frowned. “No, it doesn’t.”No matter how hard she tried to go through her memories for answers she just had not heard of anyone with such a name.“Who is he?” Jasmine asked.“That’s what I wanted to know from you. Even I don’t know the person but I
..After a few minutes, Jasmine's mom finally became very much more stable to sit comfortably than she was before.Jasmine’s mom's name was Eleanor. She’s the current leader of the Rivera family.At this point, it was only Jasmine, Aria, and her brother that was currently present. Unlike most families that chose a male leader to lead the family, the Riveras were different. The Rivera were known for having their females chosen as the rulers of their families.The male children are never chosen as heirs to one day lead the family. It was a sort of tradition among them.Those who tried to marry the female descendants of the Rivera family were married into the Rivera family. It did not happen the other way around where the female is married into the male's family. With the Rivera, the males who sort of their daughter's hand in marriage are married into the Rivera family name and it is an honor for them.As one of the three powerful families in Dimvale City, the Rivera family name was one
..Fight match.It was a solution that the three powerful families came up with to resolve their differences. Since the three families were on par with each other in terms of wealth and influence in Dimvale City they decided to resolve their issues by getting their fighters to fight in their stead in a fair match and the family’s fighter who comes out as the winner makes that family the winner of the argument.“Landon. I know I have troubled you too much today but can you come with us? I think I’ll feel more comfortable with you present with us since I don’t know if any unexpected situation can come up.” Said Jasmine with a pleading look. She was hoping that Landon would accept her request at the moment and if he didn’t she would understand.“Understood I’ll go with you guys,” Landon replied nonchalantly.“Really?” Jasmine still couldn’t believe it. Landon accepted.“I’ll go with you guys,” Landon repeated himself.Even if Jasmine did not ask him to come over with them he would’ve st
..“A-Aria you…why did you do this?” Jasmine asked with a sad expression.“You traitor! How dare you betray your family?!” Lucky flared up.“Oh shut the fuck up, Lucky! When the elders are talking do not bark please!” Aria reprimanded Lucky immediately.“I’ll kill you!” Lucky was about to rush into her but he was held in place by the bodyguards of the Arden family.“Do not forget. You simply can’t just behave anyhow here. If you continue acting this way it would be very hard for you guys to defend against our accusations when the Brown family gets here.” Holland said with a smile.Both Jasmine and Lucky were going through a series of complicated emotions at the moment. They were all still finding it hard to believe that Aria would betray them like that.Now the dots connected well. The reasons why their enemies were so successful in pinpointing both her and her mom’s location were all because of her. Aria sold them out all because she wanted power.Landon could only look at Aria with
..“The Arden family wins round two!”Jasmine and Lucky’s expression suddenly became ugly.After seeing the way Wilson had won in the first round they were confident that Wilson would win this round too. After all, Wilson had a better physique than Micheal who had stepped forward against him.However, they had been shocked when Micheal had taken Wilson down without moving a finger. Wilson was the one who had attacked but he was sent flying instead.Even Julius was stunned as well. ‘What a fighter?’At first, he was so calm and nonchalant about the situation that he just wanted to get out of there after all this was done but after seeing the way Micheal had defeated Wilson his attention was finally caught.Micheal had defeated Wilson without moving even a finger. The truth was Julius had never seen any fighter so capable! If his family were to be contending against the Arden family in a fight match they would lose because they did not know of any fighter capable enough to achieve such
..Landon tossed Micheal’s lifeless body away like a piss of rag.At this moment, he was now angry.Landon turned to give Holland a cold look. Since Holland had been staring at Landon in awe, he flinched when Landon’s gaze fell on him.Landon walked forward, trying to get to Holland. Since Holland knew that Landon must be walking towards him, he ordered out loud. “Stop him!”Listening to their boss's order, the bodyguards dashed towards Landon but all the bodyguards wished they never listened to their boss because they were all lying on the floor with broken floors.After taking care of the bodyguards, Landon started to walk towards Holland again.“Are you insane?! I thought I said the fight match is over so stop!” Julius yelled.However, Landon simply ignored Julius like he was not there.This made Julius feel very insulted. The fact that Landon was treating him like nobody made him extremely angry. If not for the fact that he knew Landon was extremely powerful, he would’ve made sur
..Landon was sent back to campus after his private meeting with Eleanor.As it turns out, Eleanor does know about the family of the shadow and he revealed to her his real identity as the current heir to the King family.Eleanor knew very well who the King family was and the level of power they controlled. Even if the King family is not known to the public, the knowledge of the King family is very important and vital information that is passed down through the generations of the Rivera family.Besides Eleanor has not forgotten the words of her grandmother about the leader of the King family. She referred to him as the man with the glowing red eyes so seeing Landon with the exact description said it all.Landon only made sure Eleanor knew his real identity due to his plans for the future. He intends to stay in Dimvale City and receive his enemies one by one and for that to happen he will need the cooperation of the most powerful families in Dimvale City.Landon got back to campus. He
..“Oh right! That’s impossible.” One of the girls laughed.“Landon might be very mysterious right now but he’s certainly not a rich heir. Since he had won three million dollars, he must’ve used that money to deceive you all…”“But-““Come on! We are already wasting too much time! Can you stop talking about Landon let’s leave.” Kara voiced out as she rolled her eyes.She was clearly tired of the girls gossiping about Landon like that.“Alright!” All the girls complained as most of them pouted and then a few minutes later they were on their way to their outing.***Meanwhile, Landon arrived at Street Eats. It was also a very nice restaurant in Thrillville. Compared to Heritage Grill which focused more on luxury in dishes, Street Eats focused more on simplicity in luxury.“Landon!” Lisa excitedly called out when he entered the restaurant.It didn’t take much effort for Landon to spot Lisa.“Lisa?” However, Landon was stunned upon seeing her.Lisa was looking very beautiful compared to
