2024-07-17 15:21:08In Valoria Prime city, Gray's family was one of the top two leading families. Over the years, their connections and wealth had accrued so immensely they now had a nearly unshakable influence.
So even if anything happens to Kian now, no one will hold them to it. And since Kian dared to cause trouble at Alexander's wedding, he definitely won't let him off. "Your family has created such a grand scene today," Kian effortlessly waved his fingers at the well decorated hall. "But unfortunately, you are still not worthy enough to be by Olivia's side." "Tsk," Alex shook his head and looked at him like he was looking at the greatest fool in the world. He turned around and walked back to the stage proudly. "You are so ignorant that you don't know during your absence, my family has gradually grown more powerful in Valoria Prime. We are akin to a god now and you..." He turned to Kian and pointed at him arrogantly, "—you are just a lowlife! A wretched criminal! It is only right that you bow to me!" Kian's lips curved in a wider lop-sided smile and he didn't look fazed by Alexander's words. This greatly irked the latter and he went on to say, "Do you know how miserable your parents were before they died? I had people decapitate them in order to save space at the cemetery. I even had them erect those tombstones even though they didn't deserve them. I have pictures of everything. Do you want to see?" He was oblivious to the dark aura that suddenly descended the hall as he walked back to Kian while speaking. "If you listen to me and kowtow in front of me, maybe—" SMACK! Alexander only saw a flash as Kian suddenly charged at him with a frightening speed and slapped him so hard in the face that some of his teeth fell out. His body couldn't take the sudden hit and he collapsed to the ground. A part of his face was swollen instantly and he was shocked. But when he tried to get up, a horrifying force pressed his head down on the tiles and he fell back to the ground with a thud. "Down on your knees!" Cracks appeared on the hard tiles as the bone chilling sound of bones dislocating reverberated in the hall. The pain caused Alex's face to turn pale and sweat covered his forehead immediately. He began to tremble but was unable to speak. Everyone present was horrified at this sight. They all looked at Kian as if they were looking at a demon. They couldn't believe he would dare to lay his hand on Alex who is the first son of the Grays in public. Not only that, he also made him kneel! He was so ruthless and arrogant! "Kian!" Seeing this scene, Olivia's expression changed and she flared up. "Do you know who Alexander is? He is the first son and the heir of the Grays! They won't let you go unscathed. If I were you, I would be running out of this place immediately to somewhere as far as possible." Kian swept his cold gaze over her and spat out without remorse, "Gray's family? In my eyes, they are nothing!" The guests were shocked once again by his reckless attitude. "Five years ago, you conspired with the Grays to rob my family of our possession. You framed me, broke my legs and even dared to hurt my family. Did you ever think of today?" The guests gasped in shock at his words but his gaze on Olivia remained unwavering. "Since the Grays were involved, they are bound to disappear from Valoria Prime and Alex—is just a small interest I'm collecting." Every one of his words was heavy and heart-wrenching. The guests gasped again. Although the annihilation of Blackwood's family wasn't a secret amongst the upper class, it was still not a topic that could be spoken about openly. Secondly, many of the upper class only heard the rumors and didn't know the full details. But now that Kian dared to reveal it audaciously, the impact of the revelation was unimaginable. Olivia's disguise was shattered by his straightforward words. She almost couldn't find words to say but when she did, she gritted her teeth. "Since you already know, I have nothing left to say but let go of Alex immediately or you will suffer the same fate as your parents and you won't even have a tombstone in your name!" "You are asking for death!" Kian retorted in an imposing manner. The killing intent was fierce on his face. He was like someone who was looking down on the world and was daring to challenge anyone. Just then, a sturdy figure rushed into the hall. It was Wesley. His face was full of anxiety as he rushed to Kian's side and whispered to him, "General, the lady you asked me to investigate... Something has happened to her." Kian's expression changed slightly and his coldness dissipated a little. He held Olivia's gaze. "I won't kill you today. On the next death anniversary of my parents, I want to see your Sinclair's family and his Gray's family groveling in front of their tombstones and apologizing for their sins." Olivia suddenly felt a coldness seep in her body as he spoke but she struggled to maintain her composure. "I will let you live but for the remaining weeks left till the anniversary, you all will suffer greatly. I want you to try and exhaust all the connections you have to save yourselves. I won't use your blood to write inscriptions on their tombstones until you have repented of your crimes!" Olivia was speechless and couldn't find words to refute him. After speaking, he simply turned around and left. Alex could no longer hold on. He gave way and fell unconscious, his eyes rolling to the back of his head. The hall was as silent as a graveyard. No one dared to stop Kian as everyone was still shocked by the scene that unfolded. This person has either gone crazy or is a god! How can he challenge the two top families of Valoria Prime city with his own strength? Olivia tore off her wedding veil angrily. The wedding could no longer proceed as the groom had been beaten up badly and was unconscious. She gestured to someone to carry Alex away and dispersed the guests. With a murderous expression, she swore, "Kian, you had an easy route to heaven but you didn't take it. Since you dare to come back this time seeking for your death, I'll be damned to give you another chance to live!"

Kian took long strides towards the Bentley Continental GT that was parked outside the hotel. In a profound voice, he asked, "What happened?" "Sir, my men have found the whereabouts of that lady," Wesley began to report to him carefully. "Her name is Savannah Wilson. She is the daughter of a third-class family in Valoria Prime." 'Savannah?' Kian repeated inwardly. He couldn't remember much about the lady from that night as he had never met her before until that unfortunate day. "After that incident," Wesley continued. "The Wilson's family were afraid of being implicated so they disowned Savannah's family and removed them from the family lineage." "Not long after, her father was accused of a misfortune that happened at the family's company and claimed the lives of some employees. He is in prison now and her mother could only make ends meet by selling groceries at the local market." "Miss Savannah herself is now a music teacher at a local school. But just now, her son was abdu

The next second, Kian walked in and his aura was so overwhelming, the middle-aged man suddenly felt a sense of fear and he took a few steps back."W—who are you?" He stuttered but no one responded.Kian's eyes fell on the little boy in the cage who was still stunned and frightened.His heart trembled again. The eyes... The hair... The face... The boy looked as if they had been made from the same mold. He looked just like his younger self!Kian didn't need a soothsayer to tell him the boy was his. But when his eyes trailed to the fingerprints on the red spot on his cheek, his eyes shook coldly.He quickly went to the edge of the dog cage, fiddled with the lock and opened it. Then he stretched a palm and spoke in a soft tone he has never used before,"Come... No one will hurt you. I'm here now."Maybe because Noah felt that although this man had a hard facial expression, he didn't look as cruel as that old geezer over there, so he took the palm and let Kian lead him out.Wesley, who was

Kian watched Savannah turn away and walked off with his son. His fingers clenched by his side as he realized he had classified things as too simple. The suffering and humiliation she endured because of him couldn't be changed by his own will. And the so-called compensation he offered just now was his own way of seeking peace of mind. If he didn't already have a son with her, it would be fine. But now, everything was too complicated. He got into his car and pondered on what to do. Then he took out a card from his pocket and handed it over to Wesley. "Find a way to give this card to Savannah and make sure she accepts it." "Yes sir," Wesley nodded and left the car promptly. He collected the car key and drove all alone to the capital prison in Valoria Prime city. If he wants to seek Savannah's forgiveness, he has to start with her parents. Her father had been framed because he had lost the protection of the Wilson's family. Saving him now might be a turning point. As soon as he got

How ironic!"Who do you think you are to act so recklessly in prison? I have never seen anyone as arrogant and ignorant as you are," Jeff sneered. "Daring to threaten me with consequences? You really have a big ego!"He raised two fingers at Kian and went on to say, "Attempting to break into the prison and assaulting an officer, these two charges will get you killed. You worthless piece of waste, get him!"The two guards took out handcuffs and charged towards Kian, ready to apprehend him.

"It has nothing to do with you," Savannah responded tautly. Her face was cold with anger and she wanted nothing more for the line to move quickly so she could get out of that place.Margaret chuckled slyly and twirled some hair strands between her fingers. "I am the bank manager. How can it have nothing to do with me?""And I'll tell you this. People like you have no right to be here. You have no money yet you still stand in line and delay other important customers. I have the right to kick you out! Besides, everyone knows you were raped."Savannah's chest heaved with anger as she covered Noah's ears. How can this stupid woman have no regard for a child and still say such vulgar words? That too in the public!Margaret noticed her actions and rolled her eyes. With a false smile, she raised her tone, "I am only being concerned as an old coursemate. Why don't you know how to appreciate good people?"Savannah's face turned pale. That topic was a sore wound in her heart that has never heal

At the same time, a sharp and piercing sound resounded in the air.PLOP!"Argh!" the security guards let out heart-wrenching screams as two ballpoint pens pierced their hands accurately and blood oozed out. They staggered back instantly.Amidst the shocked gaze of the crowd, Kian walked in."Who is he?""He looks quite familiar.""Wait!" Someone shouted. "Isn't he the same man that was involved in that sex scandal with Savannah?""Yes, that's him. Why is he here?""I even attended his wedding banquet with the Sinclair's daughter," someone whispered amongst the crowd."Uncle..."

Before he could speak further, he was barraged with kicks from all directions till he was all beaten up and could barely speak.Seeing this scene, Margaret's face turned pale and her knees wobbled in fear till she knelt.Then Greg wiped off the sweat from his brows and went to Kian. "Mr Blackwood, what should I do with these two?"Everyone was stunned. Greg had just addressed Kian respectfully, in an almost submissive tone. They looked at Kian with one question on their minds;'Who is this man?'Savannah was equally surprised. She looked at Kian with a complex gaze. To her, he was the man that ruined her life and violated her. A complete scumbag.But twice n

This one was about the scene of the accident.In the overcrowded street, a body was lying quietly on a stretcher placed by the road side. Amidst the paramedics, the security officers and the onlookers, the Holloway's patriarch immediately recognized his son.Those clothes... He had personally given them to Rupert. He had similar apparel. Shocked at what he was seeing, he fell back to his chair. A lost and bewildered expression immediately graced his facial features."How could this be... Rupert...

The skyscraper was overcrowded by seas of pedestrians. The crowd was growing so that one could only see the heads of people that trailed on and on. The reason for the growing crowd was quite evident. A small car was parked on the roadside with a large dent of a collapsed roof and shattered glasses.Rupert Holloway was lying on top of the car, twisted and mangled. It was this scene that attracted the onlookers.

The pressure in the air was so heavy it pressed down on the hearts of everyone from the provincial families.Kian's condition was not difficult at all. All they had to choose was losing face and becoming a disabled person for the rest of their lives or keeping their dignity but losing their lives in return. It was just that no one wanted to die or lose face! "Three...""Two...""One...""I'll do it!" Dorian rushed forward anxiously just as Kian's countdown was ending. "I'll do as you have requested.

Everyone was stunned at Kian's words. Dorian was the most shocked one. His face turned white than a white background as he stuttered, "What... do... you... ?mean... by that?!""I won't repeat myself," Kian's smile disappeared and was replaced by a serious demeanor. "Everyone present here today from the provincial families has to leave one arm behind. Then we can call it even."BOOM!Kian spoke so casually but the words descended like a thunder storm and caused uproar among the crowd. "Kian Blackwood, aren't you going too far?!" Rupert Holloway snarled furiously, glaring at Kian with a strong killing intent. "Daring to offend the provincial families blatantly like this? You are really asking for death!""Holloway's family right?" Kian arched his brows. "I suppose we are old acquaintances."As he was speaking, he was walking towards Rupert Holloway, one step at a time.

Calista, Dorian, Rupert Holloway were all shocked. They all trembled in fear. Even Magistrate Cody, Greg Kennedy and others who witnessed this brutal scene couldn't help but twitch slightly.As expected of someone who has been associated with the general for a while, Wesley was simply too ruthless. Just imagining the force that might have been in his knee stroke made people's hearts hammer against their rib cages.DRIP!DRIP!DRIP!Blood continued to drip from the young man's crotch. He was in excruciating pain and couldn't make a sound. His entire body was convulsing and curling from the pain.Wesley threw him off and wiped his fingers with a box of tissues that he grabbed from the table, a disgusted look on his face."Killing someone is something but you guys are going too far. My Montclair's family won't let you go after this!" Calista finally found her voice and managed to speak. But her face was deathly pale and her voice trembled as she spoke.Kian raised his teacup and slipped

Wesley's eyes turned cold and he sidestepped the middle-aged man's advance. Without hesitating, he stretched out his hand and swung the dagger forward.SQUELCH!"Ah!" Calista shrieked in shock as blood spouted out immediately. Her uncle clutched his bloodstained neck, staggering back in shock. His eyes filled with pain and fear."You bastard... What did you—" He tried to speak but ended up collapsing to the ground with a loud thud leaving a bloody trail beneath him. He convulsed for some seconds before giving up a ghost.From the moment Wesley made a move to killing the middle-aged man, he only used about five minutes. The entire room was in shock."Ah!!!!""Argh!!!!"After some seconds, the people from the provincial families came to their senses and began to scream. Blood had splashed on some of the younger members of the Montclair's family so they were extremely terrified and shuddered uncontrollably.They had thought Wesley was simply threatening their uncle.

Before everyone, Kian casually flicked his fingers but only Wesley noticed the warning. He unclenched his fists and lowered his head, the killing intent immediately disappeared. However, a chilling expression appeared on his face."Please help yourself to some tea," Kian beckoned with his fingers, smiling gently. "Let's not waste any more time," Rupert Holloway sneered with a frown, obviously not moved by Kian's hospitality. "Hurry up and tell us how to contact that wealthy tycoon!""Yes, don't waste our time and don't try to beat around the bush. Whatever needs to be known will be discovered eventually," Dorian met Kian's eyes as he spoke. "Just tell us what we need to know and make everyone happy.""No, that's not right," Kian shook his head slightly, ignoring how they all exchanged a look. "Everyone has some tea first."Dorian and the other provincial family members exchanged an amused look. Fine, they will have some tea. Let's see how long Kian can continue to make up excuses to

"Who are you?" Kian smiled at the old man calmly without any trace of annoyance."My name is Rupert. I'm from the second provincial family, Holloway," The old man snorted scornfully."My apologies for not recognizing such an important figure," Kian lowered his head and bowed slightly."You uncivilized people from these small cities don't know a single thing about hierarchy or respect," Magnus sneered and pointed at Greg Kennedy. "Especially that bald man.""You bastard..." Greg no longer had to restrain himself since the general was there. He stood and glared at Magnus, making a move to charge at him."See what I'm talking about? Barbarians!" Magnus snickered hatefully, making an expression at Greg that made him feel like a clown."Greg, don't be rude to our guests," Kian didn't make any move and simply met Magnus' eyes, calmly gesturing to Greg to sit.Greg Kennedy looked at Kian in shock. He was taken aback. These people from the provincial families are very arrogant and abusive. If

"But we also know that Magistrate Cody and the rest of you have spent hefty prices to get a share of the assets and properties of the Gray's and Sinclair's families so we can understand the unwillingness to hand them over."Magistrate Cody exchanged a look with the remaining confidantes sitting at the table. No one said a word.So the muscular man sat up and took over, "The Business Association is not being unreasonable so how about this, Magistrate Cody? We don't necessarily need to meet or see Kian Blackwood."Magistrate Cody arched his brows. What are these crafty people up to now? He didn't have to think further because the muscular man immediately explained."You all are more familiar with that mysterious investor. The tycoon who had helped you all get a share. Introduce that tycoon to the Business Association of the Southern region instead. We will discuss with him and then, we don't have to pursue the assets or properties left behind by those families. What do you think?"Magis
