Then, accompanied by the melodic playing of the violin, a waiter wheeled over a trolley that was bursting with roses. A string of fairy lights laced in between the various bouquets of roses, illuminating them in warm, twinkling lights that brought out the flowers' radiant glow.Sunniva was utterly stunned by this, and during her brief moment of stupor, Jack made his way over to her. He plucked a red, velvety ring box out from amongst the roses and got on one knee, opening the box to reveal a dazzling, ten-karat diamond ring.He let out a cough, then stared deeply into Sunniva's startled eyes and said, "Sunniva, you know that I've been in love with you for as long as I can remember. Our families have known each other for decades, and we practically grew out together. Unfortunately, we lost contact for a long time while you were abroad, but the distance has never changed my love for you. Marry me, Sunniva, and I promise you that I will give you everything you want for the rest of your
The next moment, he tossed the ring box aside and screamed at Sunniva, "You want to leave? Not on my watch!"You don't want to marry me, eh? Well, you'll have no choice but to do so once I knock you up tonight! You say you don't love me because I'm useless and uneducated? Well, I don't care! I love you, and I will not stop until I make you my wife! I'm going to marry you, Sunniva Bristow, even if it's the last thing you want!"All of a sudden, a dozen or so burly men dressed in suits stepped out, sealing all of the exits from the restaurant and blocking their way out. Jack roared at Sunniva's retreating figure, "Don't be an idiot, Sunniva! Do you have any idea how many women would kill to be in your position right now, having earned the fancy of Jack Norris? You have no idea what you're dealing with!"Sunniva was startled by the sight of these guards who had emerged out of nowhere, seemingly having been waiting for Jack's orders. Although she practiced martial arts, she, too, coul
Jack could not hold his lust in any longer. He turned to his guards and ordered, "Seize her and bring her to my hotel room."The guards immediately surrounded Sunniva and began to close in around her. She ducked behind Liam and glanced around her in alarm. The sight of Sunniva's trust in Liam made Jack feel as though a fire was coursing through his veins. He sneered when he remembered what he had found from his investigation and called out to Sunniva, "Let's not make this any harder than it is already, Sunniva. Do you honestly think that good-for-nothing can protect you? Nothing is going to stop me from bedding you tonight, Sunniva—mark my words!"Sunniva whispered to Liam in horror, "Liam, there are so many of them… Can you protect me?"Liam glanced around him nonchalantly. "Of course."Jack cackled when he heard this, clearly amused. "Liam, let me give a piece of advice—stay out of my way. Everyone knows better than to mess with Jack Norris, and consider this your final warning
The moment she closed her eyes, Sunniva felt Liam leave her side. In the next moment, all she heard were loud thuds and anguished cries. She wanted nothing more than to open her eyes and take a peek at what was happening, but she knew Liam had his reason for asking her to keep her eyes shut. Most importantly, she did not know if Liam was truly capable of protecting her against so many people.She was terrified that when she opened her eyes, she would be met by the sight of Liam slumped on the ground, having been defeated. All of a sudden, she realized that the room had gone quiet, so she quickly opened her eyes to see what was going on. To her surprise, Liam stood before her, surrounded by a dozen or so guards laying on the ground, wailing in agony. Liam adjusted his sleeve calmly, then glanced in Jack's direction and asked, "Can we leave now?"The color had drained from Jack's face, and his forehead was covered in beads of cold sweat after what he had witnessed. His hand, stil
"Many people have lost their lives due to their misfortune of meeting Diego, John, and Hoyt, and I don't think you'd become the first to escape this fate!" Sunniva was horrified by this. She knew what this signified. Although Liam had defeated Woden, this did not mean that he would be so lucky this time. His opponents consisted of a Fourth Order War King and two Third Order War Kings teamed up against him, and Sunniva did not even dare to think of what awaited them. The color drained from her face, and she shrieked to Jack, "Are you insane, Jack? You better let us go right now, or else!"Jack let out a sinister chuckle and stared at Sunniva, grinning contemptuously. "You must be out of your mind, Sunniva, to demand that I let you go. No one is going to stop me from sleeping with you tonight, but don't worry—I'll get to you once I finish taking care of this bodyguard of yours. Once I knock you up, you will have no choice but to marry me!"He kept staring at Sunniva as he said this
It was none other than Celena!The moment Liam caught sight of her face, his entire aura erupted into flames of raging fury. He did not understand what Celena was doing with Yankel, nor why Jack was showing him this. Jack sneered at Liam's reaction. "Hey, stay calm. There's more to this. Why don't we continue watching?"The camera was trained on Celena's face, but Yankel's leering cackle echoed through the speakers. All of a sudden, he whipped the phone around to face him, revealing his sinister grin. "Surprise, Liam! Look who's on my bed! It's your wife, Celena. My my, look at that figure, and that beautiful, soft skin. What a delight it is to sink my teeth into this delicacy tonight! By the way, Liam, have you seen what she's wearing?"He turned the camera around to face Celena once more, then reached out to slowly peel Celena's coat off her, revealing in full view the sexy lingerie she was wearing underneath that barely covered her crotch. He then added, "What a sight to behold
Yankel abruptly ended the video call.Jack Norris pocketed his phone, a sinister smirk twisting his features as he taunted the seething Liam. "What's wrong, Liam? Got a bit of a temper, huh? Must burn you up inside, knowing your wife's in another man's bed, all dolled up in lingerie." He clicked his tongue mockingly. "You've got quite the scary look there, but those death glares won't work on me. You really think I'd be scared of you?"Liam's fury broke free before Jack could go on. His eyes turned crimson with wrath as he bellowed, "You're asking for it!"His rage unleashed, Liam's intent to kill swirled around him like a wild tornado, engulfing the restaurant and heading straight for Jack.In a blur of motion, Liam's fist, as massive as a punching bag, hurtled toward Jack before anyone could even blink.The Diego brothers, standing guard, flared up with a menacing energy, their faces twisted in aggression. "You've got some nerve, kid, acting up in front of us. You're digging yo
Who was that man?He had taken down a bodyguard of four-star War King caliber in a single move!That was straight out of a nightmare!Once John and Hoyt snapped out of their shock, their faces turned beet red, eyes blazing with fury as they stared down Liam. They whipped out their combat knives and, with a battle cry, lunged at him!John's face contorted with rage as he bellowed, "You killed my big brother, now you're gonna pay!"Liam's dark rage had already reached its boiling point. Taking down Diego had not been enough to satisfy his wrath. Then, as John and Hoyt charged at him, a sinister grin spread across his lips, eager for the bloodshed.With a swift gesture, Liam's hand flashed, and a dagger gleaming with a deadly chill appeared. The blade sliced through the air, and before anyone could react, it was buried deep in John's chest!John trembled violently, his eyes bulging in disbelief as he stared at the blood spurting from his wound. Then, he toppled backward, lifeless.
