Semua Bab Sorry, Too Late: Bab 381 - Bab 390

It was as if an invisible blade had pierced straight through Zeke's body. What unsettled him more was that he had no idea why he felt that way.'Strange… Could it be because of him?'He instinctively shook his head. "I'm afraid I don't know much…"Before he could finish, a chilling force swept through him and instantly froze his blood solid. Kaldor was staring at him like he was already dead.Zeke hastily changed his tune. "Wait, I've got it! The Norwood family in Silverton was just an ordinary, second-rate family. However, they rose to power after stealing a priceless gem from Mr. Solomon of Silverton State. "It also looks like they've made a comeback these past couple of days…" he spilled everything he knew as he lay flat on his back.…Only then did Kaldor nod and reply calmly, "Do not sell me a lie again.""Understood!" Zeke begged for mercy.'I almost lost my life just now… but why is the demon king asking about the Norwood family? Could it be that the couple he hunted d

Kaldor would never forget what had happened.The woman had prostrated herself, begging him to spare them.The man threw himself in front of her, shielding her with his own body.Life was nothing in his eyes. They were like candles that were doomed to be snuffed out. Yet, they still fought desperately to buy each other a few more seconds.And that was what had stirred his thrill for the hunt.Zeke was completely shaken. 'The Qyren Blood used for the experiments… was forcibly extracted from that couple?!'However, the thought gave him an inexplicable feeling of deja vu."Mr. Kaldor… were that couple from the Norwood family of Imperia?" Zeke finally voiced the key question.Kaldor smiled faintly. "The woman was. The man wasn't. The Norwood family really was foolish. They expelled a woman with such a pure bloodline from the family. We wouldn't have had the chance to act if it weren't for their decision. "After all, the Norwood family in Imperia is a global powerhouse."A trace o

Evan frowned deeply as he stared at Penelope and Geoffrey, who had appeared in his courtyard like ghosts. "What are you doing here?"He knew it wouldn't be difficult for people of their caliber to track down his address, but he still chose to meet them.Penelope didn't answer right away. Instead, she slowly looked around, taking everything in. "Spiritual arrays spread across the villa, a well-tended medicinal garden, and even taking in a disciple with the potential to become a national physician… "Mr. Norwood, is this what your daily life looks like?" A faint smile touched her frost-like expression.The women from the Department of Mystia all carried an ethereal, almost otherworldly aura. They looked like immortals descended from the heavens. However, they were femme fatales to Evan's eyes."What does that have to do with you? If you've got something to say, just say it."Geoffrey's face darkened with anger, already on the verge of making a move. Penelope stopped him, her expres

"Still, it's been more than 20 years. Why is Kaldor so fixated on that child? Could it really just be about tying up loose ends?"The question Penelope raised threw everyone into deep thought.Even Lyra found herself growing suspicious. She had only considered that Kaldor wouldn't spare the couple's child. She hadn't expected Penelope to think a step further. Now, she understood why something had felt off while she was digging up the information."But how are we even supposed to find him? We don't even know the child's name!" Quirinus complained with a groan.Apollo and Geoffrey both frowned. This was going to be a nightmare. They had absolutely no leads, so it was no different from searching for a needle in a haystack. Plus, this had already gone beyond the scope of their mission. Their task was simply to protect the Stantons. Frankly, everything else had nothing to do with them."We'll take it one step at a time," Penelope said calmly, glancing at them. "After all, this is onl

"Grandpa, this is hilarious! They're actually saying he saved the Solberg family!""Yeah. You'd have to have a brick fall on your head to come up with something like that.""They even dragged the Department of Mystia into this mess just to sell their lies. Why not just say the Dragon's Protectors are your family's protector while you're at it?""Oh man, I can't! I'm tearing up!"Wendy was laughing so hard she was wiping away tears. Even Thaddeus, who was usually stern and rarely smiled, couldn't hold in a guffaw. It wasn't that they were trying to ruin the banquet. They just genuinely couldn't help themselves.'What a load of nonsense. Evan was the one who drove Mr. Solomon away. He was the one who saved the Solberg family. What does any of that have to do with Zeke? People really can be that shameless. As for Hazel, Roxanne, and Anya… God, are they really that gullible? 'All it takes is a few words from that sickly guy and they're completely fooled?'The Leighton family's laug
