Chapter 292 When Truth Shatters Everything

Penulis: J.J. Twelve
Over time, those two identities had blurred together in their minds until they had unconsciously begun treating them as the same person. That was why they had celebrated Evan's birthday on April 28.

What they had completely failed to realize, however, was one thing—loving someone that deeply meant Evan had also left an indelible mark on them.

That mark had even surpassed the one left by the man they claimed to love, Zeke. They just hadn't realized it yet. And the moment they did would be the

    Gaius smiled. "Training isn't something you can rush. There's an old saying—haste makes waste."They understood the logic, but Aria and Victor were anxious."Hm? Mr. Norwood?"Still, both of them lit up when their eyes fell on Evan."Captain Stanton, Ms. Drakon," Evan greeted them with a smile. Then, he asked in faint concern, "Are your injuries fully healed?""All thanks to you, Mr. Norwood," Victor said, gratitude evident in his voice.A strange glimmer flickered in Aria's eyes.Not long ago, they had uncovered a few clues about the person who attacked Gaius. They had rushed in to pursue the lead without a proper plan and paid a heavy price.Everyone had been injured to varying degrees. Aria had even been disfigured. It was Evan who stepped in and healed them all."The ones who hurt you… They were from the Black Sun, too, right?""Yeah. And we're waiting for them to come back," Victor said, a cold edge flashing in his eyes. "Next time, we'll show them what we're made of."

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 303 A Dangerous Choice

    "Do you have any other way to bring Zeke back to normal?"Hazel pressed the question, as if she had already seen through Roxanne and Anya's unease and hesitation.Neither of them answered.A suffocating silence settled over the villa. The only sound was the steady tick of the clock on the wall, each second stretching the tension tighter.By now, they were certain that Zeke's drastic change wasn't random. It was their fault.They had failed him again and again, disappointing him time after time. And worse, Zeke was dying.Something inside a person would twist and snap when they sensed their end approaching. Some gave up completely. Others changed beyond recognition. There were always signs.They couldn't bear to watch the once-perfect Zeke become like this. And they couldn't ignore their own mistakes.That was why they had thought of a desperate plan—letting Evan "die."In truth, they should've done this long ago. They should've done it long before Cain even came to Silverton.

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 302 No Way Back

    From that day on, the way Zeke treated the three of them changed completely. It was as if he had become a different person.He lashed out at them with insults at the slightest inconvenience. Sometimes, he even raised his fists at them.Hazel and the others were stunned.They couldn't reconcile the shouting and saliva-spitting man with a twisted scowl to the gentle, attentive Zeke who used to care for them so tenderly. They couldn't believe that the man who had once filled their entire hearts was the same one screaming at them.Anya was the first to snap. She shouted back at him.A smack rang sharp and sudden.Zeke struck her across the face, knocking her straight to the floor.A thin line of blood seeped from her lips. She lay there, completely dazed.Zeke didn't say another word. He just gave them a cold glance and walked back into his room before locking the door behind him."What was that?"The three of them looked at each other.Shock filled their eyes, but there was som

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 301 A Desperate Gamble Pays Off

    "It worked!"Zeke's whole body shook with excitement when the phone rang. He felt around his back and found his shirt soaked through with sweat.One overseas call was enough to make him act like this.No one knew just how much that call meant. It carried every last shred of Zeke's hope.Since he was an unaffiliated outsider, he had to jump through countless hoops to contact the organization. He had to crack layers of firewalls while dodging Draganland's network surveillance just to get in touch with them.That alone was enough to scare most people off.One wrong move, and Draganland's most advanced tech would trace him in seconds.And even if he somehow made it through and sent a signal, the Black Sun wasn't obligated to respond.They wouldn't grant every request—and they definitely wouldn't waste time on someone of no interest or value to them.Zeke had been gambling. He was betting that he still held value in their eyes. He was betting they would notice his signal and choose

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 300 Ripples Across Silverton

    Estelle snapped back immediately. She knew Sylvie far too well."That scheming woman… She's seriously ticking me off…"Furious, Estelle dialed Evan's number without hesitation."Evan, what's going on? Are you really seeing that old hag? 'One home, two people, three meals, four seasons'—seriously?" Even though she was upset, there was a trace of nervousness in her voice when she questioned him, afraid it might actually be true."What are you talking about?" Evan sounded completely confused.Before he could say more, Sylvie cut in. "Evan said he's going to protect me. Am I not allowed to show it off a little?""Oh, that?" He thought they were referring to that matter and smiled. "Yeah, it's going to get a little dangerous in Silverton lately. Estelle, you should be careful, too.""So, that's what it is." Estelle let out a breath, her tone shifting instantly. "I knew it—you were just stirring things up again, you old hag. And now Evan's even telling me to be careful, you—"Estelle

  • Sorry, Too Late   Chapter 299 The Post That Shook the Elite Circle

    Sylvie didn't even ask what had happened or why she suddenly needed protection—she agreed immediately. Her mind was filled with what Evan said about needing to protect her. As for the "closely" part, she had conveniently filled that part in herself.Sylvie's eyes lit up as she squealed in excitement. 'This is so sudden! Am I dreaming right now?'Evan had no idea that to Sylvie, his words sounded like something far more than just protection—it practically felt like a step forward in their relationship, even a roundabout confession.'This is happening too suddenly. I'm not ready!'Evan's divorce had only meant that she—and plenty of other women—finally had a chance to pursue him. Actually winning his heart was still supposed to be a long battle. She had already prepared herself for that. And yet, the moment he came home today, he said something like this.Looking at Evan standing right in front of her, Sylvie suddenly felt like crying. She had waited so long to hear those words.

    "Mr. Norwood, this is Dragon's Breath Command Badge!""Mr. Norwood, this is Ironclaw Vanguard's badge!""Mr. Norwood, this is Black Fang Unit's badge!"Evan couldn't accept them, but he had a feeling that turning them down would've been even worse."Take them," Ivana said with a smile. "You'll n

    'Bang!''Crack!''Crack!'Three of the black-clad assassins had their necks snapped in the blink of an eye. It was clean, efficient, and most importantly, a brutal display of power. In the end, only the leader remained standing. A cold tremor ran down his spine as he drew in a sharp breath.Even

    This wasn't a hint at all—she was practically spelling it out for him.However, Evan pretended not to notice. He had never agreed to the so-called favor Aria kept talking about; that was something she had brought up on her own.Aria, on the other hand, was starting to panic. 'I'm practically wavin

    As Graham offered the drakeblood root, he subtly angled his body toward the doorway, clearly hoping to be invited inside."I'll accept the gift, but you won't be coming inside." Ivana took the drakeblood root without hesitation."But Ms. Stanton…" Graham froze when she accepted the treasure yet st
