As Lucian's gaze drops to Mason, his face stretches into a deep frown. This is because this Mason of a guy has such an innocent face. He is positive that if a murder is committed by Mason and he and his dad are brought out for the public to vote on who the culprit is by physical appearance, his dad will be chosen at first glance!

He appears so innocent that you'd think he wouldn't hurt a fly, yet surprisingly, he is the same man that ruthlessly snatched his father's position, injured Supreme Doctor Hong, and threatened to kill his dad if he dared to challenge him! He also went as far as ordering the maids not to serve him food!

His ruthlessness is one his dad with his cold front can't even compare to! Guess the innocent-faced are the ones that do the most! Thinking about that, he is realizing he shouldn't even have been surprised because it appears to be their natural trait!

It is something he has experienced beforehand–just a few days ago from someone he thought he would spend the re

  • The Formidable Heir   THE WALL IS ALSO THERE TOO!

    'What arrogance!' Despite the fact that Mason has just replied to Lucian, he still can't help but seethe in rage! Lucian had no fear at all and came before him to spit trash! He was so bold as to ask him to renounce his position–a position he hasn't even held for 24 hours and one he painstakingly took away from Michael after so many years of dreaming of it! Ah! He clenches his fists, feeling like darting toward Lucian and showing the lad his place. However, on second thought, he decides against that and manages to tone down his rage and keep it at bay. He doesn't take Lucian seriously at all, and for someone of his caliber, he feels he would be stooping so low if he fights Lucian himself.Be it age or status, he feels he is towering over Lucian. A few days ago, Lucian was just an orphan who grew up in an orphanage and had nothing to his name. Right now since he has found out his identity, he is meant to be the heir to the family, but that is no longer possible because he has taken

  • The Formidable Heir   WHO SAID I WANT TO KILL YOU?

    Mason has deep cuts on the sides of his eyes, his lower lip, and several other parts of his body, which are all bleeding, causing the air to be filled with the harsh acidic fragrance of blood. His eyes are bright red, and every part of him aches, but surprisingly, all of that pales in comparison to how terrified he feels right now! He'd looked down on Lucian and dismissed him as nothing worth bothering about, but with just one step, Lucian abruptly darted to him, and this happened. And the worst part is that despite the fact that he was staring right at Lucian, he couldn't even see him move, which is why he couldn't defend himself! Everything happened so fast! Shivers are running down his spine in ripples that he is finding it hard to speak. The first time he is ever speechless!"I'm guessing your silence is a yes," since Mason won't speak, Lucian states matter of factly and grabs him by the collar."Get your hands off of me, punk!" Mason barks, struggling to break free from him and

  • The Formidable Heir   SO WHAT WOULD IT BE?

    Lucian's gaze is dark, sinister, and brimming with an unwavering determination to do what he wants. From the looks of things, he doesn't seem to care whether Mason dies or not. After all, the man is of no use to him and also of no benefit to the family since all he knows how to do best is snatch his brother's position and disrespect his elders!At the very least, if he dies, he would be freeing the family of a pest that might turn out to be a big headache in the future and peace would return!Meanwhile, at Lucian's remark, Mason can see that if he really goes ahead to smash him against that steel table and he dies, he would only have himself to blame as Lucian has just made it seem like only a fragile individual would die to such treacherous hit!He is certain that if Lucian was the one in his shoes, he would not have said that, but since he isn't, he is proudly saying it as if it is nothing but the truth and everyone appears to believe him as no one is refuting him!After defeating M

  • The Formidable Heir   A SHRILL ANGRY VOICE

    Mason's face is extremely gloomy. Of all things Lucian had to ask for, it had to be the one thing he is so holding onto and doesn't think he can accept to give away. Now, he is finding himself in a tight spot, with no idea of what option to choose.On one hand, he would keep his life if he does as Lucian wants, and on the other hand, he would die if he doesn't. He is stuck between losing his position and keeping his life. Hah! What if he wants to keep the two?He'd only become the Patriarch last night, he hadn't even enjoyed the position that much, and now he is being asked to relinquish it. As he thought earlier, he doesn't think he can do that. This is because, he can't begin to think of himself going back to his former position, where Michael would be lording him around and he would be beneath him. No, that sounds so horrible.It is his lifetime dream to be above, to be Lord, and he has achieved it! How can he just give it up like that? Wouldn't that make him as much a coward as

  • The Formidable Heir   HOLD HER IN PLACE!

    It has become a norm in life that in every family, company, friendship, or gathering, even if they all have one mind, there would always be a traitor, a Judas Iscariot.Of course, this fierce-looking young lady didn't storm into the courtroom by mere chance because based on the look on her face and the several burly figures she stormed in with, it is very much clear that she was well prepared before coming. It so happens that while Lucian and Mason were lost in a heated discussion a few minutes ago, a young lady amongst the other Huttons had tipped her off about what was going on and how she should come with so many guards as it appears that Lucian is so powerful.Since there are two generations in the Hutton family, the Mansion was divided into two halves. The main part of the Mansion is occupied by the first generation as they are superior to the second generation with one-quarter of the family guards and slaves whilst the other part is occupied by the second generation and the rem

  • The Formidable Heir   ICY COLD EYES

    For someone who has lived at the bottom of society for so many years and endured so many insults, berations, and humiliations, Lucian has not been opportune to make genuine friends, let alone love so many people. It is only on very rare occasions that he finds himself loving someone so unconditionally–something that happens once in a hundred or more days.The first time was with his orphanage sister, who had to leave him after being adopted by a certain middle-class family. The second was with his ex-girlfriend, Laura.It is no longer a secret that he loved her with all of his heart and was willing to die for her if the necessity arose. Unfortunately, she never valued his love because he had nothing and abandoned him for another–an incident that still haunts him even up to this day.The third occasion happens to be with Chad. When he first met Chad, he'd assumed his kind gestures were because he was his Young Master and that if not for that, the old man would have been amongst those w

  • The Formidable Heir   HUBBY!

    "OMG!" Almost everyone, especially the ladies, is shocked to their bones by that slap. Their jaws have dropped to a drastic point where a cup could fit inside and they are gaping at the woman who fearlessly raised her fist against the Lady of the family.Their hearts are almost whacking out of their panting chests, as well as their pupils from their sockets, and goosebumps are all over them with their rigid hairs standing on end so strongly as if steel sculptures and their tongues dry of any saliva.And just like them, Claudia's jaw is dropped in horror and her eyes are wide in shock. "No, that just didn't happen," she says breathlessly, shaking her head in denial and clutching her aching cheek.She really can't believe anyone would dare lay her hand on her, the Lady of the family despite that it has already happened. No, she just can't. But isn't that a clear lie? She is gripping her sore cheek, which bears the imprint of the lady's hand. Will it not be delusory if she pretends it di

  • The Formidable Heir   BLOCKING HIM

    "Such a brainless lady," Lucian hisses at her. "Don't you know I wouldn't have let him drop to the floor if I wasn't done with him for the time being? Anyways, since you think you can order me around, he'll have to suffer for it." He jerks Mason back to his feet and gazes around the room for another table. "There," he says, his face lighting up with a devilish grin as he finds yet another table. "Come on, we're not finished yet. Next time, you would teach your wife how to keep her tongue in her mouth as this is all on her."He begins sauntering to the second to last table in the courtroom. And surprisingly, at this point, Mason is awfully weak that he can't defend himself or refute. It is even a miracle to him that he is still hanging on as he feels like he is on the brink of death. On the very last bridge between life and death."No, no," Claudia says flatly and her expression sinks. She is an extension of her husband and as such can feel it within her that he might not make it thro

  • The Formidable Heir   

    SO EAGER TO GRANT YOUR WISH!

    Perhaps he believes as far as he pushed down his ego and begged, he would undoubtedly be forgiven. After all, Lucian is a man who appears to be easily moved by apologies, regardless if they were genuine or not.But he had got it all wrong this time as Lucian merely scoffs as soon as he finishes putting up the forgive me drama and retorts,"Fancy you kneeling there and yelling I shouldn't do this when you brought it upon yourself. Hah! I've been patient enough with you, but I see you might be taking my benevolence for weakness and dismissing me as a pushover you can snap at and curse whenever you want. "As a result, I might pardon others as they didn't concur or refute you when you said what you said, but I would never pardon you! "Since you've finally succeeded to cross my bottom line, you might as well bear the consequences! Only after you've suffered that would you realize how ruthless I am as a person and know that I'm no pushover!"He sways his gaze to Chester. "Keep away from

    I'M SORRY!

    With each word Lucian says, Cole and his brothers feel a pang in their chests that by the time he is done talking, their chests can't help but begin aching. Simultaneously, their brows crinkle and their face contort in discomfort. This is indeed what they planned to do. They'd suffered so much just because of the useless little girl and her boyfriend.Obviously, there was no way they would have let that lying down. It was just as Lucian said, they'd silently planned in their hearts to seek revenge against him later because they had to verify his identity first but would go ahead to kill the little girl and her boyfriend immediately since they already know their statuses. Like, they had not been planning to let that revenge-seeking cross today.They've always loved serving their revenge hot. But what they never expected is that Lucian will easily figure out their untold plans. A plan they had not even discussed amongst themselves but harbored only in their respective hearts. They

  • The Formidable Heir   

    ISN'T THAT RIGHT?

    'My sister,' as those simple yet powerful words leave Lucian's lips and infiltrate the little girl's eardrums, an overwhelming sensation course through her veins, and her eyes well up with tears. She doesn't know why, but hearing Lucian refer to her as his sister makes her so aroused and emotional.Maybe because she never had a big brother, let alone one who would stand up for her so selflessly. What aggravates her emotions even more is the fact that Lucian knows nothing about her. Like, he has never met her before yet he is so willing to go to the ends of the world for her. The knowledge that she now has a stranger as a big brother and a powerful one at that is quite weird yet so overwhelming and soothing."Thank you, thank you so much," she can't help but express her heartfelt gratitude. "I'm really grateful!" Her eyes sparkle and she pouts, looking much like a pouting kitten.Lucian is instantly overwhelmed with the strong urge to laugh as the little girl is so amusing right now w

  • The Formidable Heir   

    DO I NEED TO TEACH YOU?!

    Callum's brows furrow and his face contort in displeasure. At this moment, he seemingly appears to be both perplexed and displeased. According to what the little girl said, she accepted his apologies. He is sure he heard that right, so why should he apologize to her again, or could it be that the girl was merely being sarcastic?But it doesn't seem that way. In that case, that can only mean she meant it and that Lucian is the one who is twisting her words for whatever reason. An acid taste creeps into his tongue and he clenches his fists.Since Lucian now calls the shots, he must be doing it on purpose to trample on his ego and shatter it if possible.His nose flares up in rage and he furiously turns, seemingly as if he wants to pick a fight with him, but as his gaze lands on Rome and Chester's murderous faces, a chill runs down his spine and he jerks twice as if he had been electrocuted."I-""You are twisting my words!" Before he can say anything, the little girl says helplessly an

  • The Formidable Heir   

    APPEARS YOU WANT TO DIE!

    The little girl is gaping at Callum as if she is seeing him for the first time and her heart is thumping so strongly, loudly, and quickly, a cloudburst of blood surging through her veins in tides upon tides. Who would have guessed that Callum, one of the burly figures who seemed so powerful and tyrannical to her would be reduced to this?She is so stunned at the sudden twist in events that her jaw is practically dropping to the floor, and she doesn't in the slightest know how to handle it. Regardless, she is just a pauper who has spent her entire life in the slums and is at the bottom of society. As a result, her self-esteem has taken a significant hit, plummeting to an all-time low. And this has had so many negative effects on her, one of which is the fact that she has, over the years, grown accustomed to being the one begging others, and with the exception of her boyfriend, who begs her occasionally when he offends her, no one else has ever begged her. One could imagine just how bi

    I'M SORRY!

    "That's very easy," Lucian grins darkly. "Don't they like to fuck anything in a skirt? We can as well have them try something new!" "Something like what, My Lord?" Rome doesn't even let a second pass as he quickly asks, his eyes gleaming with so much curiosity in them."Something like fucking the same gender!" Lucian sneers and passes his tongue over his lower lip, exuding a sinister aura."Wow!" Rome gasps and an ecstatic smile breaks out on his face. "You sure deserve to be My Lord!" He proclaims with so much reverence, admiration, and pride in his voice and bows 90°. Yes, this is the formidable Python Lord he has pledged to serve for the rest of his life! He sure lives up to his name!"I have no doubt that this is a nice blood-rising plan, My Lord, but there are no new guys here, so even if that was possible, who would they lay with?" Chester twists his brows disconcertingly as he implores, seemingly not that enthusiastic yet."How can you be so slow-witted?" Lucian frowns. "Do the

    BUT HOW DO WE ACHIEVE IT?

    "Such a bunch of cowards!" Rome hisses, glaring disdainfully at Cole and his brothers. "For experts with such murderous auras, I assumed you guys would be at least interesting and hard nuts to crack but turns out you three are so pathetic and a disgrace to your expertise! You don't deserve to be called experts at all as you are just a useless bunch of scared mice! "Gosh, you three might be the death of me if I don't take time because you infuriate me to no end!" Rome is so provoked that his babbling spirit suddenly takes over him and he loses rationality and begins babbling and babbling at the top of his lungs, his eyes bloodshot and his fists clenched so tightly that they now bright red and might start bleeding anytime soon if he doesn't control his rage and loosen up."Buddy," seeing this, Chester doesn't waste a second as he smacks him on the head, yelling, "Earth to me!"Rome shudders violently, almost dropping to the floor, but Chester is fast to catch him and steady him.

    WITHIN AN INCH OF THEIR LIVES

    "But I've already been struck before," before Carl and Callum can bring themselves to say anything, Cole, who had assumed he wouldn't be included in the beating since he has already been struck by Rome and suffered a vital blow, says in a barely audible whisper, his voice full of so much reverence and his face flustered.It's not that he respects Lucian, or fears him, nah, not at all. To him, Lucian is still a lad who doesn't deserve his respect. So what if he might be an heir to a top-tier family? Does he have what it takes to command respect from a man of his skills?Hmph! He's just a fragile heir who only has his family to rely on, and without them, he is nothing. He has never taken all these heirs seriously because the majority of them are utterly useless and incompetent. They can't even fight themselves out of danger and would always depend on their guards.Their very existence irritates him and as such his reverence towards Lucian just now is only because of Rome and Chester at h
