Sally, Fiona, and Rex Magnus, including everybody inside the hall immediately became dumbfounded when they heard Nancy's, but due to different reasons.Hearing the question which was just asked by Nancy, the people inside instantly inched forward to check things themselves, then the moment they saw the duo behind Sally, their eyes widen.“Did she just bring her entire family to the gathering she was invited?”One of the women presents asked with a shocked face.“Hahaha, what sort of shamelessness is this?”“Why would someone bring their entire family to a place like this?”“Perhaps, she thought of using this opportunity to show them what real wealth is and to widen their eyes to great things.”Some people muttered to themselves in shock while others mocked without any care in the world amongst themselves.As for Sally who was being mocked and talked about, right now, she was busily staring at Nancy with her mouth wide open.***** A greedy look instantly appeared on the middle-aged man's face as he feast voraciously at Fiona with his eyes which was instantly seen by Christiana, then she became angered yo the core.Within the blink of an eye, her face became completely dark.‘Thankfully, my boyfriend only have me in his eyes, or else this whore would have also enticed him.’Just as Christiana thought this, she casted her gaze to John, then she became dumbfounded for a while before her eyes widen and her heart began to tremble as she saw her usually innocent boyfriend currently gazing dreamily at Fiona, then she lost it.If it wasn’t because she doesn’t want to cause a drama right now, Christiana would have screamed furiously at Fiona and chase her out.Fearfully, Christiana stepped beside to her boyfriend and suddenly pinched him hard on his arm.Feeling the sudden pain, John's eyes immediately regained clarity, but just as he was about to yelp in pain, he sa
***** His body trembling all over, Alan Bottoms gazed at Curtly fearfully, then killing intents began to flash in his eyes.Suddenly, he breathed out heavily, then his eyes began to bore deeply into Curtly's, he uttered quietly while gnashing his teeth against each other. “This thing you are doing, aren’t you scared it could send you to your demise?”Feeling the undisguised threat in Alan Bottoms' voice, Curtly only continued smiling without showing any expression of being scared on her face.“Well… well, young master Bottoms, as I said earlier, the choice is yours to take.” Still smiling brightly, Curtly said to Alan Bottoms professionally before pausing slightly.“Oh, also. Meeting you tonight is actually a coincidence, well, a good coincidence, because I was only thinking of how to meet you in a faked coincidental way before, who would have thought you are going to make that possible and even easier for me without trying.”Finished fearlessly,
**** “Is… is that a real diamond?” With her eyes suddenly filled with flying stars, one of the ladies present suddenly questioned no one subconsciously “Wow! This diamond is real! It must have cost a lot of fortune!” Even Christiana and her mother couldn’t help but become filled to the brim with shock as they gaze at the ring. Christiana watched with her mouth wide open as John took her hand gently and inserted the ring into her engagement finger which fitted in perfectly. Suddenly, someone clapped, breaking the deep silence within the hall. Hearing this, everybody also joined, then in no time, the hall became filled with clapping sounds. As for Nancy right now, her entire being is presently filled with joy. “Hahaha, my daughter has made me proud, this is great!” She began to jump around the hall and show off to her friends who began to congratulate her excitedly. All of a sudden, just as she was about to skip happily past Sally and
**** “I’m very sorry that I’m late!” At first, the place descended into a heavier silence after this unexpected voice sounded, but after a while, everybody spun toward the door, gazing judgmentally at the unexpected visitor. But the moment Fiona, Sally, and Christiana saw the visitor, their eyes widen in shock. Suddenly, an excited voice rang within the heavy silence. “Sister Curt!!! Is that you, when did you get back?” Like a little huge squirrel, Christiana suddenly rushed to the beautiful lady smiling at everybody after the door. Just as she reached her, Christiana jumped like someone who has a spring under the sole of her shoes into the beautiful lady's arm. “Sister Curt, you didn’t tell me that you would be back today even though we still communicated last week?” She pouted. Right now, the smile on Curtly's face has changed entirely and has become harmless and very beautiful. Hugging Christiana who is presently in her arms tightly,
**** “Come… come sister, let me introduce someone else to you.” Done, Christiana quickly dragged Curtly away excitedly, to John's unwillingness. ‘This girl, how was she able the ugliest within her group of friends?’ John couldn’t help but sigh heavily to himself as she watched Curtly's hour shape figure, then he shook his head and glanced at Fiona who was presently standing beside Rex Magnus. ‘What a lucky bastard. Apart from the good look he has, what makes him deserve such an angel?’ John's face suddenly got pumped furiously after he sighted Rex Magnus, but even he couldn’t deny the fact that the duo looked incredibly perfect together. Although Rex Magnus was only dressed casually, seeing them standing beside each other made them look like they were a match made from heaven. It was at this time that Christiana and Curtly eventually reached the husband and wife duo. Having already gotten the idea of what his Fiancée was going to say, John su
****“Wasn’t that the hall booked by my brother for his wedding proposal?”At this moment, the beautiful and elegant manager of Maple Leaves Hotel could be seen gaping at a huge screen with shock.Although three people were standing respectfully behind her, nobody answered her question as though they have no response to it.Nobody even knows who her brother is.Having already expected this, the lady felt nothing and only continued gazing at moving images on the screen for a while before she finally smiled brightly.“My brother really is one of a kind. His boss was still busily sleeping around with a little girl, while as for him, he already has a connection with someone who owns a golden card, and the young master of Bottoms family even knows him,” she tapped the table beside her thoughtfully for several seconds, a prideful smile surfacing on her face.After a while, the lady abruptly pointed at someone before she rushed off, still elegantly.
****“What do you mean? Who the hell is supposed to be arrested between you and me? Oh!! It seems you really want to play tricks on me, right?” Curtly who was shocked to her core not long ago by Alan Bottoms' sudden intrusion couldn’t help but suddenly interrupt coldly, startling Alan Bottoms to the core.Upon hearing this voice that sounded like that of the devil to him, Alan Bottoms' heart immediately went cold, then instantly what he was about to say became stuck in his throat.Slowly, his gaze turned to Curtly who was presently standing a few steps behind Rex Magnus, then his heart shook.“What… what are you doing here?”His eyes suddenly widen, then beads of sweat began to ooze out of his skin.“What's going on?”Everybody, including Rex Magnus who knew that Alan Bottom was speaking to him earlier, couldn’t help but suddenly glance at Curtly from Alan Bottoms, then to and fro for a while before their gazes eventually settled on Curtly,
***** No matter how much Alan Bottoms try convincing Fiona, Fiona only became disgusted and irritated with him more. As for everybody else, it was as if they were watching an intense movie that they couldn’t understand for the time being. At this moment, Rex Magnus who has remained invisible since the beginning finally couldn’t watch and listen silently anymore as another guy tries to poach his wife from him, especially being the alpha guy he is. After watching his wife’s face for a while and seeing the look there, he finally smiled happily, then he suddenly glared coldly at Alan Bottoms. “Mister, I don’t know if I should commend or be disgusted with you, imagine, trying to move to the lady whose best friend you’ve shattered, just wow!” Hearing Rex Magnus’ voice which was filled to the brim with sarcasm, the words that were about to leave Alan Bottoms' mouth instantly became stuck in his throat, then with his eyes filled with killing intents, he glare
**** Potter City On a somewhat crowded street in a hot summer's afternoon, a young man in his late teens could be seen pedaling a bike as quickly as his legs would allow him.Looking at this young man, his body was already entirely drenched in sweat, and his attractive face, which was also completely covered in sweat beads was etched with fatigue.But despite this, the young man appeared unconcerned as the hastiness in his eyes was much more intense.He continued to cycle the bike hysterically as if his life depended on it, dodging both objects and creatures.The young man's eyes finally shone with intense light after a prolonged period of unceasing cycling, as if he had suddenly seen light at the end of a totally dark tunnel.The young man immediately increased his pedaling speed and applied more energy to his legs when he abruptly heard the unexpectedly loud vroom of an approaching car.The young man's delight first gave way to a bewildered and perplexed expression since he was ful
**** According to the diary left for Rex Magnus by May, the first time she betrayed him, she didn’t know that Rex Magnus was being planned to kill.What she was told was that they were trying to strip him of his power, and although it was also wrong, she had no choice because of her selfish reason, but she told Ronald about it, and it was Ronald who promised to protect their masters, so it wasn’t a betrayal.The reason why they were able to control her was because, when she was 19, she was drugged and raped by Rex Magnus' half-brother, and because everybody knew her feelings for Rex Magnus, she was threatened that they would report the case to Rex Magnus if she doesn’t do what they wanted.As for the second time, she had initially thought of refusing until she knew the name of the poison, so she made up her mind to apply it to Rex Magnus and tell him the entire truth after, but knowing that she wouldn't be able to face him again after the whole truth is out,
****The moment this was said, the place became silent and a heavy atmosphere descended.Just after a moment, nervous voices began to stutter.“You… you can’t do this… how… how dare you speak about honor when the master was still poisoned.”“If… if you're certain you want to give master a respectful death, why don’t you give him an antidote first?”They continued roaring and stuttering with fear while fidgeting and trying to break the enchanted chains used to restrain them, but Rex Magnus' brother acted like he doesn’t hear.Looking at everybody’s faces blankly for a while, he suddenly swiped out a knife from his pocket, then he turned around and walked unhurriedly to Rex Magnus.“This was all your fault,” he suddenly muttered to Rex Magnus that only he would hear.“You shouldn’t have made everybody feel scared, and more should you have made all those old fogeys feel like they were in control and not you.”He sighed, looking like a nice p
****“What… what happened to grandma?”Presently, Fiona has finally returned to her senses, but her head is currently ringing loudly while one of her palms is holding her mouth tightly with shock.She couldn’t believe what she was seeing at all.Her voice was what finally woke several people up from their stupor state, then instantly, Fiona's father, David jumped to his feet and rushed forward with two crimson red eyes, pointing his hand furiously and ferociously at Ethan.“How could you… how could you do this? Have you forgotten all the love, affection, and favoritism shown to you by Mother?”His voice was shaking so much that everybody could tell he was hiding a wave of indescribable anger and pain in him.As for Ethan who heard him, he doesn’t look remorseful nor furious, rather, he smiled coldly before laughing evilly and stepping on the body still oozing out blood.“She… huh?”He questioned playfully. “How could you say this old bitc
****“Dear brother, it’s been a while.”The young man suddenly smiled brightly after reaching Rex Magnus, but unfortunately, Rex Magnus couldn’t do a thing.Despite this, the look in his eyes already showed everything in his mind which only made the young man chuckle brightly.“Hahaha, yes, you have thought right, my dear brother. It was your sweet and precious May that poisoned you.”The moment Rex Magnus heard this, despite the great effort it took, he forced his eyes to gaze at May pleadingly, as if begging her to say it was a lie, but the moment he saw the look on her face, his eyes redden, and he would have been screaming ‘why’ right now if he was still at the control of his body.Although he already knew the truth, he still doesn’t want to believe it at all, so Rex Magnus continued gazing pleadingly at May despite his eyes having turned crimson red.Seeing this, the young man before Rex Magnus looked even greater.Smiling brightly, he co
**** “Hahaha, the ex-divine general does make jest of me,” the young man abruptly chuckled. “Who am I, how dare I claim myself to be the cousin of a like of you?” “Hehehe,” Rex Magnus also chuckled in return before finally glancing at all the faces his eyes could see, and the more he sees, the heavier his heart became and the more emotional he became. Even though he already learned that most of the people in the group had betrayed him, he still wasn’t able to handle the deep sadness and broken-heartedness within him. As for the people his gazes stayed longer upon, they knew that Rex Magnus has recognized them, but only a few of them has embarrassed expressions on their faces, as for the rest, their eyes were filled with mockery. After a while, Rex Magnus abruptly chuckled again. “I never knew why I was this blind in the past that I didn’t realize I was being hated upon by these many people.” “Hun?” Everyone abruptly looked flushed before
****Presently, Rex Magnus could be seen once again standing before his army with a stoic expression on his face.They were where they'd planned to meet after the success of the previous operation.“Are you all ready for the showdown?”He asked his army gently.“Yes, sir, we are all very ready, sir.” He was responded to by organized voices which made the ground around them tremble intensely.Without a change in expression, Rex Magnus looked at them more for a few minutes, the powerful and leadership aura still circulating him with full force, he nodded his head.“Okay then. We shall strictly follow the plan and tactics already made,” he uttered seriously this time around. “There is zero chance for a mistake, okay?”“Yes, sir.”With that, Rex Magnus and his men proceeded outside the city's gate, making everywhere they pass tremble.It was as if they’d turned into powerful beasts with the oppressive atmosphere spreading around them and
**** “Very soon, we shall split ourselves into groups, with each group under a general,” Rex Magnus who still doesn’t know the aura around him continued. “Now that we have the upper-hand of being in the dark while our enemies are in the bright space, we should make use of this well.” Like so, Rex Magnus continued speaking and giving orders until finally, everybody set out. All the soldiers were split equally under a general, leaving Rex Magnus and May alone. He watched calmly as the last group left, then he turned to May. “Our lives are now in your hands, please do monitor them and inform us of any changes.” “Hun?” May's eyes abruptly widen at this, then she trembled slightly. “Ma… master, this… this isn’t right, right?” It is now time for Rex Magnus to be stomped. He gazed strangely at May for a while before shaking his head slightly. “You are definitely acting strange. This isn’t the first time you would be doing th
**** “Team 32, any traces of that bastard?” “None as of yet, sir?” “Then continue watching and searching closely.” “Yes, sir.” “Oh, one more thing, never for any reason allow your group to be scattered, that bastard isn't something that should be taken lightly, okay?” “Yes, sir.” “Great.” (Beep.) …… “Hello sir, Team 54 is on the line.” “Team 54, any traces of that bastard?” “None, sir. According to all the coverages we’ve seen, he left his house this morning and…” ….. “Team 82, any traces of that bastard?” “None as of now, sir.” “Continue searching then. Make sure to search every inch of the city, okay?” “Yes, sir.” …… Presently, the entire Chase city is so quiet that one would think it had turned into an empty street if not for the thousands of armies that could be seen almost every minute. Apart from this, several aircraft could be seen flying to and fro in the sky, as if searching
