“Not seeing the horse before the carriage, I believe, Steve,” Blake said in an indifferent tone.“Look about this; it’s all been a misunderstanding,” Steve said with a pleading look.“Why is it every time someone does something to another, and they find themselves in a precarious spot, they say it’s all a misunderstanding? Like it will make a difference in the outcome.” Blake stated, looking at Claire with disbelief over Steve’s attitude.Claire could only look back like she didn’t know the answer either. So, Blake looked back at Steve with a complicated look towards him.“Steve. If it was left up to me you know your outcome. But since you targeted Claire and her family, I believe it will be more beneficial that I let my wife choose your punishment.” Blake said, indifferent to the frightened look Steve gave.Why shouldn’t Steve be afraid? He tried to ruin her Grandfather’s company, tried to bed her without her consent, and tried to remove her from Blake, her husband. With all these ev
“Claire looked at the three and she only nodded her agreement. The rest did not have a say in the matter within the family business.“Blake, I know we had problems in the past, but to spend eternity like this. It is inhuman,” Steve said in a panic.“Steve.”“Blake, I’ve seen the error in my ways.” “Steve.”“I’ll never trouble you or your family again.”“Steve, shush. I said it before: I am not the one who has jurisdiction over your punishment; Claire does, so all this yapping to me is futile.” Blake had to muffle Steve within the binding array. Steve turned his attention over to Claire who was looking over at him with a pondering expression, like she was undecided on what to do to him. This was at least Steve’s perception of the situation with Claire’s decision.“Blake?”“Yes.”“A word in private.”Blake created a sound barrier instantly around them so no one to hear their conversation.“I want the most punishment he can receive. Can this be arranged?” Claire asked with a serious lo
Blake and the women arrived back in Elon Trust’s conference room. Claire gave Blake a warm kiss for punishing Steve to her will. Sylvia looked at the couple and shuddered a bit at their cruelty toward their enemies but was pleased over the outcome herself, knowing what Steve had put Claire through all this time.“I’ll go and see Mr. Wheaton in his office. Are you all okay with returning with Claire?” Blake asked the women in the conference room.They all nodded, but Helen looked pleadingly at Blake. Blake looked at Helen and knew what was on her mind but was too embarrassed to ask.“Helen, you stay back and drive me back,” Blake said casually and Helen nodded her response.Everyone left at the same time; while the women went down, Blake and Helen went up to the CEO’s office and met with Mr. Sam Wheaton, who shook Blake’s hand wholeheartedly.“Thank the gods that you are back and safe, Young Master,” Sam said with a great smile.“I’m sorry I was late. You have suffered under the Organi
Helen’s eyes became wide seeing the pills in the doctor’s hands, and couldn’t contain herself.“Blake, do you feel it?” Helen asked, moving closer to Blake.“Yes, it’s Claire’s aura on those pills. What is he playing at?” Blake whispered back.Dr. Eladeiz made his way to Kelly and placed the pill into her mouth. He quickly retreated from his position since it was freezing in her presence.“It shouldn’t take long for the medicine to work. It melts on impact and is absorbed through the body rather quickly, bringing her immune system to its peak. Whatever ailment she has contracted will be eliminated.” Dr. Eladeiz explained this to Paul and Sam.Sam looked at Blake, who showed indifference to the show scene. Time passed slowly, but there was no change in Kelly’s condition; in fact, it became worse. The area that they were standing in became more freezing, and they had to retreat out of the room. Looking through the doorway, the room became an ice wonderland.“I_I don’t understand. My pil
“Cough, cough. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave.” Dr. Eladeiz said and was about to turn around and exit the room.“Wait you quack, who told you you to go?” Paul asked, letting go of his daughter.“Sir, I assure you I’m no quack. This was just a special case of a misunderstanding, is all.” Dr. Eladeiz said, causing Blake to look up at him and shake his head. Blake really didn’t like that phrase as an acceptance of one’s past mistakes and actions.“What part of misunderstanding is a doctor misdiagnosing his patient and almost causing her to die from the outcome?” Blake asked, feeling better, and walked over to Dr. Eladeiz.“Who are you to question this one’s profession? Are you a doctor? Where have you practiced, Sir?” Dr. Eladeiz asked, shaken; no one had ever questioned his medical skills during his entire career. “I still haven’t voiced my opinions on you taking control of my patient, causing strife between me and the Wheatons. Taking credit in curing her when you can
Kelly got packed and was ready to return with Blake and Helen to Peach Blossom Estates when Kelly’s Mother arrived. She was shapely and had dyed red hair, making her look like a mature goddess in her business attire. When she saw Kelly up and about feeling fine, she wept with tears of joy and hugged her daughter to the extreme. It was only after that Kelly relayed what was happening and that she needed to leave and train herself to get better control of her situation that her Mother nodded her approval.Blake left Swanville’s Elon Trust in capable hands with Mr. Sam Wheaton and left with Kelly to begin her new life as a cultivator. Helen looked in the rearview mirror at Blake during the trip, and Blake could only put on an apologetic look towards her. She had come so she would be able to replenish her Life force with Blake, and situation after situation took precedence.“Then I just found out that my favorite model is getting married. You could only believe the shock when I heard that
When they entered the apartment they found many boxes like she was either leaving the apartment or just arriving.“Please excuse the mess, I was packing for….” Francine stopped her explanation midsentence.“I heard of your marriage. Congratulations.” Blake said with a smile.“Please, Blake, don’t….”“Misunderstand? There is nothing to misunderstand. I was missing for a few months, and the public assumed I was dead. It wasn’t for good reason that you would move on. As long as you’re happy, I’m happy.” Blake said with an understanding tone. “Ah, where are my manners. This is Kelly Wheaton. She is one of your biggest fans. You already know Helen.”“Yes, hello, sister. Miss. Wheaton, welcome, let me prepare some tea, maybe coffee?” Francine became a proper hostess.“Coffee would be fine, sister,” Helen said. “Here, let me help.”Helen went into the kitchen with Francine, and they began to brew the coffee.“If there is trouble, why didn’t you come seeking me?” Helen asked, suddenly shockin
Francine guided the medical power through her body, and when it entered her Meridians, new channels were formed and connected. Seeing her progress was astoundingly fast as new channels were being created and strengthened throughout her body. The more Meridians were connected more her aura was thickened.Bradly watched as Francine’s whole person changed in front of him. He could see a new strength coming forth. He was actually awe-struck and frightened. This wasn’t the first time he had abused Francine, and he feared her retribution. Still not able to move, he looked at Blake, who was smiling at Francine’s progress, and in the corner of his eye, he looked at Bradly, causing a chill to go down his spine.Suddenly, a powerful aure escaped Francine. This was Blake’s cue, and he waved his hand. A massive amount of Spirit Stones materialized before Francine. The channels for her Meridians began to fill with Spirit Qi. The pressure was notwithstanding, and Bradly toppled over to the side. A
