“Who are you?” Jane asked. Ezra stared at her indifferently then turned towards Evan.

“What are you doing here?” Evan frowned and Ezra smiled.

“Miss Vera asked me to join you,” She said and lowered her head.

“Who's she?” Mrs. Bertha asked coldly. “It looks like I wasn't wrong about what I said earlier,”

Evan stared at her indifferently and checked the time on his wristwatch. It was already a few minutes past 7 pm.

“Since there's nothing more to say, you'll have to excuse me,” He said and turned to leave but a strong hand held his right hand and pulled him back.

Evan's brows knitted slightly and he slowly stared at who the hand belonged to. “Where do you think you are going? My mother isn't done talking!”

“Do you value your hands?” Evan asked coldly and Jane frowned.

“I do not repeat myself,” He added coldly and her eyes widened in anger.

“How dare you!”

“Enough, Jane!” Christel yelled angrily at her and marched in her direction.

    “Boss, I've sent the gift to him. It turns out it was Harry who sent them,” Claus announced as he walked inside Evan's study room.“Is that so?” Evan muttered and shook his head after. “Is there anything else?”“Well,” Claus said with hesitation, then sighed lightly, “The issue with the southern branch has been resolved peacefully, and all the articles related to the drug have all been taken down,” “That's good,” Evan calmly replied.“I dug in to know more about the drug and found out something,” Claus said after much hesitation.He stared at Evan patiently and bit his lips after. Meanwhile, Evan stopped with what he was doing and closed the document before him.An uncomfortable silence fell before the duo and the level of intensity skyrocketed.“What was the drug?” He asked calmly.Claus sighed, then took out his laptop. “It was a narcotic drug, sir. One that creates illusions after being consumed," On hearing this Evan's brow knitted slightly and he signalled for him to continue.

    Silence fell in the back the instant the red SUV car came to a stop. A few minutes later, a tall slender man alighted from the car and made his way to the lake ahead.His steps were calm and serene and almost out of this world. He came to a stop beside the lake and stared ahead at the still water.“I still have a long way to go,” He muttered as he pressed his leg backward with force and clenched his hand tightly as a heavy channel of energy rushed through his veins.“Hah!” A loud kaboom sound rang out and the air hissed harshly and soon after a short wave brushed against the surface of the water.“As expected. Just a day of not cultivating caused me to fall behind,” He muttered and sat on the floor and crossed his legs together.He closed his eyes and started to breathe calmly. A few minutes after that, one could see beds of silver liners slowly floating toward his direction.He of course was aware of this. After all, he was cultivating the sacred technique, the duo of the heavens and

This is what I want you to do for me.” Claus said, then looked around and lowered his voice. “Sir Evan asked that a gift should be sent to their client. And also, find out more information from them and see if there's more for us to know,” He explained.“Understood, sir. I'll do just that,” The voice replied and Claus hung up the call.He sighed heavily and placed the phone in his pocket and just as he was about to head back inside, a voice sounded behind him.“Is this how thugs attack him?” Ezra asked and Claus froze in place.He slowly turned towards her direction and arched an eyebrow at her. “No,”“Then why were they after him earlie

    A thousand miles away from Santo city. A gigantic building surrounded by huge trees and a bed of grass stood majestically under the blazing sun. It's aura ancient and desolate, as though no one had lived there for long. One could see pieces of vases on the floor, their value unknown. And occasionally, once in a while, an insect will rest on one of the rotten woods on the floor to eat but get eaten by a predator.Sounds of footsteps approaching in the distance caused all the living beings to crawl to their hideous.“I think this is the place,” A female muttered and her companion stood beside her with an exaggerated expression on his face.“This place? How can this be the place mentioned on the map,” The blonde-haired boy muttered. He was a tall young man with an athletic build. He was dressed weirdly and had a big sword behind his back and occasionally a snake would crawl out from his bag and hiss at him.“Sorry Pepo,” He laughed awkwardly and the snake returned to his bag.“It is.

Vera was dressed in a beautiful red V-line pencil gown that showed off her curves. Her long red hair was tied neatly and decorated with expensive jewelry. She stared at Mrs. Bertha calmly and curled her red lips slightly.“A guest. I wonder if this is how you welcome your guest to your daughter's birthday,” She smiled lightly and Mrs. Bertha frowned Mrs. Bertha eyed her silently and then faced Jane.She stared at her for a while, then faced Vera, “It looks like my daughter must have misunderstood you.

The seeds of change had been sown, and now it was time for them to bear fruit. With determination coursing through my veins, I set out to meet with a group of citizens who had taken it upon themselves to uncover the truth behind the corruption that plagued our city.The grassroots journalism initiative had gained momentum in recent weeks, as more and more Venton City residents grew disillusioned with Edward's iron-fisted rule. Now, as I approached the modest office that served as the nerve center of their operation, I could sense the simmering energy of a group on the brink of discovery.Inside, the atmosphere crackled with excitement as I greeted the dedicated individuals who had dedicated themselves to the pursuit of truth. Their faces were alight with passion and determination, their eyes shining with a fierce resolve that sent a shiver of exci

We had organized a community outreach program to provide much-needed resources and support to the marginalized communities of Venton City, and the turnout exceeded even my most optimistic expectations."Thank you all for being here today," I began, my voice carrying across the bustling square. "Together, we have the power to make a real difference in the lives of those who need it most."The crowd erupted into applause, their enthusiasm contagious as they eagerly awaited their assignments for the day.

Everywhere I turned, I could feel the weight of Edward's oppressive presence, his toxic behavior poisoning the very air we breathed. But despite the growing resentment simmering beneath the surface, the citizens of Venton City remained powerless to challenge his authority.I watched in disgust as Edward threw trash recklessly onto the pristine sidewalks, his actions a blatant display of disregard for the environment and the community he purported to serve. But as much as I longed to confront him, I knew that doing so would only draw suspicion upon myself, further fueling his relentless pursuit of me.Instead, I kept my distance, observing from the shadows as Edward continued his reign of terror unabated. His vulgar language echoed through the streets, offending the ears of passersby who dared not speak out against him for fear of reprisal.But amidst the chaos, a glimmer of hope emerge

As my team scoured the area, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at the pit of my stomach. Davis was a master of deception, and I knew all too well that he could be hiding in plain sight, waiting to strike when least expected.I trudged through the overgrown foliage, my senses on high alert as I scanned the surroundings for any sign of Davis. The sun beat down relentlessly, casting long shadows that seemed to dance mockingly around me.

I had taken pity on her, buying her from that wretched auction house, hoping to give her a chance at freedom. But now, she was in the hands of another, and I feared what they might do with her.The family who found Rosetta was the secretive Montague clan.
