Chapter 258 A Desperate Bargain

Author: J.J. Twelve
Zeke spoke in a rush, his words tumbling over each other as his hands flailed helplessly in the air. "I-I'm terrified, Hazel. Do you understand what it's like to lose the one thing keeping you alive? Without Evan…Who's going to give me blood now? What if I die?

"I don't want to die… I don't want to die!

"I don't want to leave any of you. I want to stay with you forever…"

As he went on, his voice grew more frantic until it broke completely. His eyes were bloodshot as tears streamed down his f

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 262 Family of Fools

    The Solberg couple knew something was up. They stopped Evan from leaving. "Come back here! You're not leaving until you clear things up!"Cynthia wouldn't let go of Evan's hand. "I've made it clear that you will always have a place in this family, even if you're not Hazel's husband! This house is always open to you!"They were terrified, thinking that Evan wanted to cut all ties with them."You're worrying too much. I'm just worried about you guys." Evan didn't tell them the truth. He only had the idea of leaving this city moments ago, and he had no hard plans to execute that yet.Evan's answer relieved the couple.Before Evan left, he insisted once more, "Remember to take the drugs as soon as you can!"The energy drugs had a best-before limit. They worked best in the first few days after their creation. The longer it remained unused, the weaker their effects would be. There was also another reason, but Evan didn't tell them. He couldn't risk Hazel finding out the energy drug

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 261 Big Hug

    The Solberg couple desperately hoped Evan would stay. That would make Evan look like he was still their adopted son, and they'd feel secure knowing that he was under their wings. Besides, they also harbored a hope that he would change his mind and rejoin the family if he stayed long enough. Perhaps they should start changing addresses.Evan saw through their plot immediately. Still, he smiled and declined, "I won't be staying here. It's not exactly the greatest idea."Stefan panicked. "Why not? Oh, you're worried about Hazel, aren't you? You don't want things to get awkward? It's alright. She's at Nine Courts. She barely comes back!""It's not about her." Evan shook his head, interrupting. He was about to say something, but Evan saw the anticipation in the couple's eyes and bit his tongue. "I'll visit you lots."He tacitly agreed that he was their adopted son. Saying otherwise would be trampling over the Solberg couple's kindness, and he'd make them sad. Although news about his

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 260 Angry Evan

    Evan was starting to wonder if Cain was a coward. Hugo then told him the whole story."You and Hazel might've gotten a divorce, but you're technically still the Solbergs' adopted son. The divorce doesn't negate that. That's why Cain couldn't do anything."Evan was bemused. The Solbergs' adopted son? Him? He already signed the letter of estrangement. He still had the documents.'Wait,' Evan thought. 'Something's not right. This must be Stefan and Cynthia's doing.'Evan realized who must be behind this. The fact that Stefan and Cynthia went against Gabriel for him doused his anger. He had no idea what to feel. Stefan and Cynthia were more than kind to him. They were the only few who cared about him like a son.'But honestly, you just tripped me up,' Evan thought in frustration. He was already going to get rid of Cain. It was the perfect time to see how powerful level three of the Ninefold Arcane Arts was.But now that had to be pushed back. However, Evan wasn't going to tell the pu

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 259 The Fools

    On one side, her happiness; on the other, Zeke's survival. It was a tough choice. Two sides of Roxanne were fighting within her.One asked, "Will you really sacrifice yourself and marry the one you don't love, especially when he's the reason you're in this mess? Just because Hazel did it doesn't mean you can. "You're not like her. The sight of him alone drives you mad. You've given up your future for him. Don't give up your happiness, too."The other said, "You're sacrificing your happiness for Zeke. It's alright. You're the only one who can save him now. You'd regret it if you don't do this."…That inner argument went on and on. Roxanne was leaning toward saving Zeke, but her happiness would be the cost. She had to think about it. She bit her lip, her expression conflicted. "I'll think about it."Zeke grabbed Roxanne's hand tightly. He wanted to scream, but he couldn't. "There's nothing to think about. This is the best way forward." He explained patiently, "Think about it. I

    Zeke spoke in a rush, his words tumbling over each other as his hands flailed helplessly in the air. "I-I'm terrified, Hazel. Do you understand what it's like to lose the one thing keeping you alive? Without Evan…Who's going to give me blood now? What if I die?"I don't want to die… I don't want to die! "I don't want to leave any of you. I want to stay with you forever…"As he went on, his voice grew more frantic until it broke completely. His eyes were bloodshot as tears streamed down his face while he sobbed.For a moment, the three heiresses felt their hearts soften. They could actually empathize with him. They understood his fear, his panic, and his loss of control.In contrast, Evan's actions seemed absurd and unreasonable to them. In their minds, they had done nothing wrong. If anyone was at fault, it was Evan.The three of them hurried to comfort Zeke."It's okay, Zeke. We'll make him give you blood. You won't die…"However, even as they said it, they had no idea how to

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 257 The Mask Falls

    Hazel was caught completely off guard, so she fell straight to the ground. She froze, disbelief written all over her face.Roxanne and Anya's expressions changed instantly. They rushed forward to help her up before turning to glare at Zeke."Zeke, what are you doing? Why would you hit her?""The divorce wasn't what Hazel wanted either. It was Evan…"They were still trying to shift the blame onto Evan."Shut up, all of you!"Zeke cut them off with a roar. Then, he fixed his gaze on Hazel again, his voice rising into a furious shout."Why did you get divorced? Why? Don't you realize that I'm as good as dead if you divorce him? Why are you so selfish? Couldn't you have backed down if Evan wouldn't listen or give in? Huh?"Zeke looked like a wild beast ready to tear someone apart. His eyes had turned bloodshot, making him look terrifying.The three heiresses were frightened. They stared at him in horror, staggering away little by little. They had never seen Zeke like this before.

    This wasn't a hint at all—she was practically spelling it out for him.However, Evan pretended not to notice.

    Evan's expression hardened. "It's an extremely vicious form of black magic—an evil art that severs a person's fate. Think of it as Death sending you a death notice.
