*****“I said my wife can’t follow you, she is currently sick.”The instant Ethan heard Rex Magnus repeat what he just said, he became stomped.Subconsciously, he gazed at Fiona, but the instant he saw the look on her face, his eyes widen for a few seconds.“Nonsense!!” Ethan abruptly bellowed furiously, his voice loud enough that it forcefully woke Sally up from her stupor state.“What shit are you spouting from your f*cking mouth? Who are you useless piece of shit to tell me such a goddamned obvious lie!”All the feelings Ethan has been hiding since he got there immediately drilled out of him with full force, spreading across the entire living room.“Hehehe, I see that you people have taken the main family as a joke!”He continued ferociously, making Sally who just returned to her senses and was currently trying to comprehend things instantly understand forcefully.Sally.The instant she understood what just occurred, her body trembled intensely.Then filled to the brim w
***** At this moment, although Ethan was still filled to the bring with fear for Rivers Rodriguez and his two aides, it doesn’t stop him from fabricating hateful lies after returning to the office.Upon hearing them, the Old Matriarch who had been trying all her possible best to keep herself calm and composed all along became furious to the core.“Mister, hope… hope you heard that, have… have you realized we aren’t at fault now?”The Old Matriarch suddenly gazed expectantly at Rivers Rodriguez as if she thought they now has the upper hand, but unfortunately for her, the moment she saw the unchanging expression on Rivers Rodriguez’s face, she became disappointed.‘It looked likes he's hell-bent on helping that family, no matter what!’Sighing dreadfully to herself, the Old Matriarch decided to calm herself down first while convincing herself in her mind. ‘I'm doing this for the betterment of the family.’After a few seconds, she stood up before speaking out.“I would go
***** Still gazing at the general's face, nobody knew that his mind was currently so dark and mutilated compared to the look present on his face.With a smiling face, the General listened attentively to the arrangements being given to him.After everything was finally said, he suddenly smiled brightly before lowering his head respectfully.“Thank you, sirs. Your arrangements are the best.”With a respectful voice, he voiced out.“As long as we keep on torturing his personal soldiers that wouldn’t yield, then in no time, we would conquer everything.” Hearing this, the non-militant men nodded their heads expressionlessly before giving more orders.All of a sudden, the door to the conference room was knocked.Instantly realizing that it could only mean one thing, everybody's hearts abruptly skipped a bit, then an expectant look appeared on their faces.“Come in,” General Ren ordered.After giving the order, a lady in military uniform came in and saluted everybody resp
‘Did… did mother just give in?’Sally almost couldn’t believe what she heard, but the Old Matriarch doesn’t seem to care.Walking past her, she entered the villa.Seeing this, Rex Magnus only smirked coldly. ‘You should thank your star that you are my wife's and brother's grandmother. I wouldn’t have given you this chance otherwise.’After sighing softly, he also followed behind the Old Matriarch.Suddenly, Rex Magnus' footsteps fettered, then a nervous look that could gain the pitifulness of the most heartless person in the world appeared on his face.With his heart thundering in his chest, Rex Magnus was just about to cry out in alarm and rush toward his wife when suddenly, he saw her secretly winking at him.‘Was… was that made-up?’Rex Magnus almost couldn’t believe it.Secretly, he wiped the beads of sweat that has instantly appeared on his face and once again gazed at his wife fearfully.Just now, he was almost scared to death when he saw the sickly look on his wife's
*****“Please come back from wherever you are, I… I don’t think I would be able to live for long if I still don’t know your current situation.”An utterly beautiful woman inside a gigantic bedroom continued wailing painfully at a picture in her hand, and the more she stuttered, the more her tears became.Just at this moment, a dignified voice filled with helplessness suddenly sounded.“Wife, till when would you do this?” But as if she didn’t hear, the woman continued crying and whimpering.Seeing this, the man that just spoke, a handsome looking man, whose appearance alone could capture the hearts of maidens and goddesses.Comparing this man's face to that of the person in the picture, nobody would need to be told that they are father and son.This man is Rex Magnus' father, the current Patriarch of the Magnus family.Apart from his handsomeness that could blind people, flowing within and around him was an enormous aura of majestic that couldn’t be feigned.Gazing at his wi
***** Gazing at Ethan as he continued behaving like he just saw his savior, Rex Magnus and Rivers Rodriguez’s aides couldn’t help but roll their eyes at him. But as for The Old Matriarch, she became utterly emotional after seeing her precious grandson like this and she almost instantly teared up, but she controlled herself well. “It’s okay grandson, I’m back.” After saying this gently to Ethan, The Old Matriarch finally glanced around, then she became confused. Seeing this, one of Rivers Rodriguez’s men who are now seated on the couch which was used by Rivers Rodriguez suddenly stood up, then unlike the bodyguard behavior the two had portrayed when Rivers Rodriguez was there, the man abruptly smiled professionally toward the Old Matriarch. “Madamé Johnson, our boss got a very important call he couldn’t miss, so he ordered us to complete the task.” The moment the Old Matriarch heard this, it was as if a huge boulder was lifted off her shoulder, then she sighed heavily. Althoug
***** Fiona's mind continued to think all sorts of things, but scared of disturbing her thoughts, the two aides kept quiet, all through. As for the Old Matriarch, if gaze alone could kill right now, Fiona would have already been butchered more than a thousand times since she arrived. Apart from giving Fiona a murderous look, the Old Matriarch’s gazes also contained strong warnings and threats. It was as if she was trying to convene Fiona that she must reject everything offered to her, but unfortunately for her, Fiona was too shocked right now to notice her gazes at all. As for Ethan, his mouth was utterly completely dried right now, and his face has already become ghostly-paled. ‘Noooo I don’t want to accept this! I can’t accept this! Nooooo' He kept howling and crying in his mind, but unfortunately for him, he doesn’t dare to make his thoughts known outside. It is only those that glance at him right now would understand his feeling. Ethan’s fists were tightly clenched and h
***** Rex Magnus wasn’t shocked nor startled at all when he heard his wife’s sudden question since he was already expecting it.Smiling softly at her, Rex Magnus began gently. “Knowing the sort of person grandmother is, I already arranged this day even before the contract was signed.”“Hun?”Fiona immediately became confused, not understanding what Rex Magnus was talking about. “Before the contract was signed?”“Yes.” Rex Magnus suddenly smiled smugly as if he was showing off to his wife.Poor Rex Magnus, he still doesn’t know he has to explain everything to his wife.Upon hearing Rex Magnus' response, Fiona suddenly felt some butterflies flying in her stomach and she became happy. “So it wasn’t that he doesn’t care.” She sighed softly. “Although he knew he doesn’t have the power and capability to help me with the unachievable task then, he still does everything he could to protect me.”Glancing secretly at her husband’s f
