The other experts turn ashen, and their faces and fingers begin to tremble incessantly. Asher was one of the most powerful experts of the Bodens and the strongest among them. He had made countless achievements for the Bodens and sent so many souls to death yet he was killed by Lucien with one punch and died right on the spot! They couldn't believe it at all! It is something they never expected to happen! Never! If it isn't because Asher's corpse is lying on the ground before them and his blood is slowly flowing out, they would have thought what they saw just now was an illusion. The entire street is dead silent. Like, the once busy street is now more like a morgue! The people saw what happened, and it is still to them like a movie. They keep looking at the scene in front of them, utterly dumbfounded. Although they can't tell how terrifying Asher's strength is, they know from his looks and power-packed punch that he must have been an extremely powerful expert of a top-tier family

Lucien wasn't loud as he said those words and his tone was calm too. But his voice resounded in everyone's ears clearly. In fact, it was more shocking and unnerving than Asher's roar before he attacked Lucien and got himself killed then. The air around Lucien is so condensed and he holds his head so high. His posture and voice are that of a God! It makes the people shiver and stare away from him as none can keep up their gaze on him. The way he could still be calm while the words that come out of his mouth are like daggers piercing through their hearts sweeps them off their feet. It makes their hearts fly into their bellies and often makes it hard for them to breathe each time it happens. So terrifying! "What did you just say? Are you trying to say you are superior to all our helmsmen joined together? Hmph! You are so arrogant punk! How dare you insult us? Do you know who we are?" "Yes! You are just a damn pauper with nothing to your name! A mere live-in lover of the Pearsons like

He hiddenly takes a look at Lucien and nods as if he just confirmed all his thoughts with that one stare. He is the one master sent us to kill. He is the killer of Jordan. I'm not wrong. He must be lying by saying he doesn't remember having a fuss with anyone.The assassin wants to ask Lucien a thousand and one questions after several minutes of thinking and coming up with the same thing over and over again but remembering he is nothing but a weak prey in front of Lucien, he can only clear his throat and begin talking.He tells Lucien about how two young men Brooks Miller and Ryder brought home Jordan's corpse earlier today and how that got the Bodens enranged."Brooks? Ryder? Bodens?" Lucien narrows his eyes at him as he asks."Ryder is best friends with Brooks and Jordan's cousin brother. Jordan and Ryder are from the Boden family, one of the top-tier families in Forest Hills. The Boden family can be said to be the second major family right now in Forest Hills. You can imagine how a

It takes Lucien's departure with the cab for the assassin to regain himself. After Lucien's statement, he immediately examined Asher's shirt without a single doubt that Lucien's statement might not be true and his heart skipped a beat when he noticed not only the other identical buttons on it but also the spot the button in his hand was pulled out from.Nevertheless, that alone wasn't what made him exceedingly surprised, he was that surprised because if not that as an assassin of his level he has a great sight, he wouldn't have known that a button was taken away from that spot. It took him to look closely enough before he could see it. It was at that point that he realized Lucien is truly extraordinary and someone who possesses powers he has never seen in anyone else.As he glances back at the spot after regaining his composure, he doubts that anyone inferior to him can be able to notice that anything is missing because the button was properly removed to the point where the open spa

Jack can tell that something dreadful must have happened to get his expert assassin this emotional. For a man in his forties who has worked for him for as long as ten years or more, this is the first time he is seeing tears in the expert's eyes. The first time he is watching the expert cry. The sight pricks his eyes.When the spouse of the expert died years ago, Jack is so certain he didn't see a single tear in his eyes– like, the man never cried even when he was called out to give her his farewell speech on her send off but right now this same strong burly man who has never shed a tear for over ten years is crying aggrievedly before him.The expert's lack of tears during his wife's death and send-off can't be accounted for as a lack of love because everyone knows he loved his wife. Still do. It was there for all to see.Perhaps he never cried because his wall wasn't precisely pushed and his ego wasn't trampled upon the way Lucien just did.Jack can't help but wonder what this his exp
