MasukThe remaining Martial Servants tensed up, looking at the enemies with horror. 'Who are these people? They can decapitate one of us just by raising their hand!'Then, they saw the thin, almost transparent blade in Nightingale's hand. She didn't decapitate one of them just by raising her hand. She just moved too quickly for them to follow. She had superhuman speed.Nightingale patted Gabriel's cheek. "You're Gabriel Solomon?"The stupefied Gabriel nearly nodded. His Martial Servants sensed great danger coming. They shouted, "Run, Mr. Gabriel! They're trying to kill you!"Gabriel's pupils contracted. The Martial Servants charged ahead, unleashing all their strength at the Black Sun team.The four started working for Cain when they were young men. Their loyalty was unquestionable. They'd sacrifice themselves if it meant Gabriel wouldn't be harmed. They didn't care that their efforts were useless and weak because they'd still put their lives on the line for a sliver of a chance for G
The three tacitly agreed with Nightingale. Then, she added, "But someone's going to leak everything about the Iron Dragon and the Queen of Finance. They'll set things up so all three are gathered. We can take them all at the same time."The other three were excited. The Stantons were their prey, so they weren't going to give up now. Still, who was their tipper? And how would they set it up so the three Stantons would gather?The Stantons were all powerful people. Only people with more power could arrange such a thing.Nightingale looked at her team members coldly. "That's not something you should question. The mission is our only priority."The team of four disappeared soon enough.Butcher asked, "What's the new mission?"Nightingale answered, "We're killing Gabriel Solomon." She handed Butcher a tablet that showed Gabriel's information.…At the same time, Gabriel was in his suite at Rissington Hotel. He, too, had made progress. His underling handed a report to him. "We've fou
Zeke wanted to kill Evan more than anything. That had been his plan right from the start. It was just that he now also wanted to see the heiresses suffer. He thought, 'You want to see him, don't you? You can't forget about him, can you? Then, I'll kill him right before your very eyes! Yes, that'll break you!' Manical laughter seemed to echo forever in his mind.He would be all better soon. When the time came, he would be blessed with power. The heiresses were of no use to him anymore, and he was way out of their league. With his power and status, he could get any woman he wanted. So why would he stay with these morons?Ambition always grew with greed. Zeke thought, 'A man's best outfit is power and position.' Then, he wondered if Nightingale and the others had finished their mission.…After Black Sun's members learned Ivana's address, they swiftly made a beeline for No. 1, Nine Courts. However, they didn't move in just yet. Instead, they staked the place out."Hey, something's
Zeke had noticed their wavering affections a while ago, but he never brought any attention to it. Something inside him had twisted and snapped after he'd gotten in touch with Black Sun. He used to need the heiresses' help for blood and meds, but the knowledge that he would be healed soon meant that the heiresses had outlived their usefulness."You're mad…" Anya stared at Zeke in disbelief. "You could've told us! We could've helped you! You know how much we hate being lied to! Do you have any idea how much we hurt Evan because of you! We thought he only did it about eight times, so we made him give more and more!"Anya roared, "A hundred times! A hundred times he gave his blood to you! And he did it himself the last time!"Roxanne was glaring at Zeke, her eyes red. "You want to know who the secret donor is? It's Evan!"That stunned Zeke. He thought, 'That explains why I couldn't find the guy.' He knew Evan would leave the heiresses after he gave his blood 100 times, but he never
Anya and Roxanne pulled Hazel to her feet. "We need to talk to Zeke! We're not letting this slide!"…Zeke's living room was booming with heart-pumping music. He turned the stereo up to maximum volume and smoked an expensive cigar before sinking into the couch. He was living the good life.He thought, 'Now this is life. God, living with the three stooges was hell.'Zeke wasn't satisfied with just material wealth. He wanted riches beyond that and more. He wanted absolute power and unquestionable status. The heiresses couldn't give him that no matter how much they tried. He eventually learned that he had to fight to feed his desires himself. Fortunately, he would get his hands on power. Soon enough, his only goal in life was to get used to his new life.Suddenly, his mansion's door flung open as the heiresses stormed in. They turned off the music. "Why did you do that? Why did you lie to us?"Zeke took a deep drag and ignored them. The fact that they were asking meant they'd foun
Instead, the heiresses took the side of the one who wanted to bleed them dry. The truth blindsided them so badly that Hazel spewed blood once more. It was too much for her to handle; she'd lost count of how many times her rationality had snapped today. Soon, her rage roared to life.Stefan and Cynthia came in. They found out why Hazel was in a hurry. She was looking for Evan's diary. Now she knew she'd been horribly wrong all this time, and regret was catching up to her.Hazel's regret didn't delight her parents. Instead, they held her in utter contempt. "It's too late for regrets now, I'm afraid," Stefan grunted darkly. He thought, 'Curse her! Regret? After all this time? After he cut all ties with you?'The thought fueled his rage further as Stefan roared, "You had a chance to make things right, but you didn't! You just had to jump off the cliff, and now you're divorced! He's cut all ties with us because of you! Why aren't you laughing? Shouldn't you be happy? "God, you have n
Hugo eventually grew tired of the farce. He approached Graham like a predator closing in on wounded prey. Softly, almost mockingly, he patted Graham's cheek. "Where'd all that confidence and magnanimity go, old boy? Though you wanted my apology?"That was the cue. Hugo's men surrounded them. Anya
The men's faces fell. Graham was infamous in this part of town. A dinner invitation? That guy always gave Hugo a wide berth.Someone said, "Something's wrong with that dinner."Hugo narrowed his eyes.One of the men blurted, "I've heard some rumors, sir. The Goldens are getting chummy with the Qu
Evan didn't refuse. After all, he did require an extra pair of hands in the future."Thank you, Mr. Norwood!" Both Caleb and Artemisia were over the moon.After they left Villa No. 1, he could no longer contain his excitement as he started laughing in joy."Hahaha! Our family will soar to greater
"Ms. Stanton? Are you referring to Ivana Stanton?"Roxanne didn't know Sylvie, but her mind immediately jumped to Ivana when she heard Artemisia ask about a certain "Ms. Stanton"."It's nothing." Artemisia shut her mouth, but a storm was raging within her.They were still in the divorce cooling-o
