Semua Bab Sorry, Too Late: Bab 431 - Bab 440

"What?" Cain roared in fury. "When did I ever run because I was scared of that guy? How dare they!" Cain exploded when he heard that ridiculous rumor, and a terrifying killing intent filled the room. Everyone in Cain's faction was also furious. They didn't mind if Graham wanted to show off because of his son-in-law or if he used that man's name to step on others. However, spreading the rumor that Cain was scared off by an unknown individual was unacceptable. It was an insult to Cain's reputation. "Right now, every power in Silverton believes you were forced to retreat because of that man named Zeke Carter," Ciel said hoarsely. "Our reputation is in complete tatters." The words struck Cain like a bolt of lightning. His face twitched, and his expression turned dark with fury. At that moment, his anger was even more terrifying than when he had learned of his son's death. 'Who the hell are Graham and Zeke? Have things really gotten so bad that anybody can use my name to

Estelle certainly gave off a different impression now.She used to be an innocent and young teenager, the belle of her campus who was both lively and full of energy. Every twitch and smile made her seem as though she radiated with youthful vigor.Now that she was experimenting with more mature outfits and makeup styles, she exuded both innocence and gave off an air of temptation.All of those elements surprisingly came together in perfect harmony despite the fact that she had just turned 18.It even made her shine in Evan's eyes.When she noticed that Evan was staring at her, she giggled. "I was bored to death at home, but I did learn a few tricks about styling. I can admit that being 18 has given me an advantage, but it's not exactly all sunshine and rainbows."That's why I've decided to try on other styles. Women need to be adaptable in order to triumph wherever they go!"Estelle made it sound so easy, but Evan knew just how much effort she put into dolling herself up.The fi

Orion couldn't believe that Evan was being pursued by multiple women!From the look on Sylvie's face, she was so worried that she might as well have said her house was on fire.The other women who wanted Evan would surely be of equal caliber to her.No way.Just why?Orion's anger soared to greater heights.He was someone who could not accept someone he believed to be his inferior to be more popular than he was.Still, it was good for other women to win Evan over.Once that happened, Sylvie would have no choice but to be his woman.So, he simply smiled and said, "My apologies, Ms. Stanton. I can't let you leave if that's the reason you're giving.""What? You won't let me leave?"Orion's rejection fed Sylvie's panic.His smile deepened. After all, there was no way he'd let her leave, not after hearing her reasons.He wanted nothing more than for the other women to get their claws on that brat, so why would he let Sylvie go to ruin things for him?Just then, Sylvie's phone

"Yeah, it's only time we find Kaldor, and when we find him, it'll be the end of him!""That's right! With Mr. Genley joining the operation, we'll capture our opponent in no time!"The others joined the conversation, eager to share their optimism.The exhausted group immediately perked up at the thought, excitement shining in their eyes.Beaming with pride, Orion turned to Sylvie. "Did you hear that, Ms. Stanton? That's Mr. Genley, my mentor and the leader of the Department's Uppersea branch, second only to the Director-General. "They call him the just and righteous 'Glowering Guardian'. Even the most vicious man yields to him. I bet Mr. Genley’s reputation alone has scared Kaldor into hiding.”Gaius arrived as quickly as he could and happened to overhear Orion’s words. His lips parted on instinct, but no argument came out.After all, Orion was speaking the truth.In the past, Gaius had dealt with Helso, so he knew Helso's true strength very well.Now that Helso was involved,

Graham also sighed at how blind the Leighton and Solberg families were. To him, it was as if they could not tell a mere tortoise from a celestial beast.After he had had a few more sips of wine, he was starting to feel the effects.Hence, he caved into the urge to call and taunt his enemy."Stefan and Thaddeus, I'll be honest. I'm truly worried on your behalf! You've seen how powerful I am lately. I'm going to be the king of Silverton!"It's all thanks to Zeke, my wonderful son-in-law. You could have done it too, especially Stefan."With how close you were, if you accepted Zeke as your son-in-law, I would never be chosen to rule over Silverton!"Stefan and Thaddeus were rendered speechless.It just so happened that the two men were together when they accepted the call. Hence, they were equally stunned.What on earth was Graham up to now?"Graham, did you have too much to drink?""Me? No way! That's you!"Graham roared angrily, "Every time I think about my current situation,
