This slap made the scene fall silent instantly.Everyone was left wide-eyed and speechless, not understanding what was happening. Why did Remus strike Gilbert?Under everyone's gaze, Remus walked step by step toward the intersection.As Gilbert saw him approaching, it felt like an immense weight pressing on his chest, making it hard to breathe. He knew that doing nothing at this moment would mean waiting for death.Struggling to kneel on the ground, he said in a flustered tone, "Why did you hit me? Is it because of what just happened?"I did all of this to protect your reputation. Just now, since you didn't reveal your identity, I thought you were insulting the God of War, so that's why I acted that way…"The onlookers also nodded in agreement. They knew Gilbert often praised Remus as his idol and wouldn't tolerate any disrespect toward him.Remus asked indifferently, "What about the road closure?"Gilbert quickly blurted out, "This has nothing to do with me. It's the Dragon He
Anthony slowly lowered his head, realizing that he had indeed been outsmarted by Gilbert and was not as good as him.But Remus didn't listen to Gilbert at all and kept walking back toward his car."Mr. Cosby!" Gilbert shouted. "Please give an ordinary person like me a chance. I have no background or connections and am just one of the countless ordinary people, while you're a person of great influence."With just a small gesture, you could change my destiny. Could you do this one thing for the common people's sake? Please forgive me this time! Help me!"The onlookers were all moved by his words. After all, they were also just ordinary people who wished Remus would grant them a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.As Gilbert mentioned, just a simple gesture from Remus could change someone's life!Remus stopped in his tracks, and everyone's hearts skipped a beat.Remus said calmly, "Ordinary people can use any means to rise to the top. They can be driven purely by profit and even do thi
The meal was quite eventful but turned out fine in the end.Remus was the one who ended up washing the dishes, too. At that moment, he kind of missed Glinda. Back when she was around, these were always her tasks.Just as he set the plate down, he sensed three gentle gazes coming from the couch's direction."Where are we sleeping tonight?""Remus, which room will you be taking tonight?""We had to stop in the middle of it last time, Remus. We haven't had a perfect night yet, right?"Remus' head was starting to throb again.After thinking for a moment, he looked at Kylie and said, "Kylie, we spend a lot of time together usually. How about you just let it go this time?"Kylie was exasperated, while Husan and Jean tensed up simultaneously. Was Remus going to use a clone again? Of course not! There were a lot of things that one needed to do personally!After a fierce debate, it was decided that Remus would stay in Husan's room tonight because the sequence had already been determine
Understanding the situation, Husan stood up tactfully. "I'm tired, so I'll go upstairs and rest first!"After she left, Remus could no longer control himself. Many things were simply on a first-come, first-served basis.Jean's eyes softened as she settled directly onto Remus' lap.Sitting this way made her slightly taller than him, and her cascading hair completely obscured his face. It was like a curtain, creating an intimate space that enclosed their faces together.Just as the two were becoming more intimate, a sound suddenly came from the living room, and the door opened!Remus felt a shiver run through his body. Why did Kylie have to come back at this exact moment?He was about to turn around and explain, but at that moment, Jean moved quickly and efficiently. She cupped Remus' cheeks with both hands and kissed him.It was like she wanted to show the newcomer that it was already a done deal."This woman…" Remus was terrified, but he couldn't just push her away and had no c
Remus listened to his women and could even tolerate some minor indignities. But with Ana, there was no need to do such things at all—she was just a passerby.When Jean heard these words, she couldn't help but glance at Remus, realizing he hadn't changed. The only thing that had changed was his attitude toward his women.Jean sneered. "Didn't you hear Remus? What are you still doing here?"Ana's tears continued falling. She looked at the two of them for about ten seconds and then nodded. "In that case, I won't bother you anymore. I wish you a happy life."After speaking, she slowly turned and walked away.Remus watched silently, showing no intention of stopping her. It wasn't because he was heartless, but rather because if the Dragon Protector Clan would alter Joe's genes, what wouldn't they do?Keeping her by his side would be just like letting Gilbert live—breeding trouble for himself!Ana walked up to the door and placed a hand on the doorknob, but paused without opening it ri
"Just consider it as compensation for what you did to her!"Ultimately, Jean was tenderhearted.When Remus heard her plea, he made up his mind. Regardless of whether Ana had something up her sleeve, he would help her this once and consider it as compensation for the harm he had caused her in the past.Once she was better, he would immediately drive her away. After that, they would stay out of each other's way and never meet again.But if she returned to the Dragon Protector Clan, then the next time they met, it would be a fight to the death!Remus quickly got up and walked out. Upon seeing Ana's condition, his heart skipped a beat.She exhibited not only the symptoms of diazine powder poisoning but also other signs of poisoning. There must be other poisons mixed in that powder!He quickly brushed her lips with his fingers, then put his fingers in his own mouth to taste the drug, feeling even more worried.With a dark expression, Remus said, "Before she came here, she had alread
When Remus was forcing the toxins out of Ana, Dent arrived.Remus provided a prescription for him to prepare the medicine.In reality, it was just a simple remedy to replenish energy and blood. This was because expelling the toxins from Ana's body would also cause some blood loss.Plus, forcing external influence into her body could have counterproductive effects. So, she still needed some replenishment.But to Dent, this simple prescription was like finding a treasure. His hands trembled slightly as he wrote it down before he went to prepare the herbal medicine.Jean stayed nearby, and Husan also came over upon hearing the noise, both feeling complicated.Under normal circumstances, they could hardly wait to get rid of Ana, but seeing her in such unbearable pain now, they felt a bit of pity for her.Maybe this was what it meant to be a woman.Remus was continuously working on expelling toxins from Ana's body. Although it might sound simple, it was actually a very delicate proc
Remus suddenly froze, feeling annoyed by the question. But at the same time, his heartbeat quickened. Upon reflection, he realized that Ana didn't seem to have wronged him.The most serious issue they had was Ana breaking off the engagement. When he asked her to leave with him at the Dragon Protector Clan, she refused.Other than that, there was only the remaining threat at the Cosbys'.Ana said, "What really upset you was the way the Dragon Protector Clan treated you and my rejection at the end."But if you ask yourself honestly, I'm just a member of the Dragon Protector Clan. I'm not the one who can truly determine how to deal with you, and I wasn't involved!"Besides, I'm also human and have my own feelings. Back then, we only just met a few days ago, so how could I betray my family for you?"I sympathize with and understand you, yes. But none of this justifies betraying my family! If you were in my shoes, could you do it?"Remus felt his heart rate speed up again. She wasn't
