All Chapters of Sorry, Too Late: Chapter 481 - Chapter 490

Even though Kaldor was dead, his newly minted status was only starting to make the rounds, and that was all thanks to the Department looking into the Norwoods. Once they were taken into custody, Kaldor's infamy and his demise began to spread.Still, all the city knew right now was that a terrifying killing machine had descended upon it, and he was something that inspired more terror than Cain. Since Cain was the ruler of a state, his movements were predictable and were more or less… legal.However, this killing machine shrugged the rules off like they were nothing. He'd kill anyone who got on his bad side and walk away like he owned the world. None could ever seek justice if he were the one who killed them.The Norwoods were branded as traitors and enemies of the state. Anyone who had ties with Kaldor would suffer that crime. That alone spoke volumes about the terror Kaldor could have potentially wrought.Silverton's biggest names were living in trepidation now, worried that Kaldor

Anya's eyes sparkled as if they were galaxies holding a sea of stars within. Roxanne was shivering, not from cold, but from sheer excitement. This was better than getting praised. However, Hazel was apologetic and slightly ashamed. After all, she did suspect Zeke.Zeke saved her family and got to where he was through his own hard work. That alone was a miracle. She shouldn't be doubting him. Zeke was a miracle personified.Graham grabbed a camera and approached Orion ingratiatingly. "Can we… Can we take a picture, Mr. Lorimer?" His eyes spoke of his wish louder than his voice could.The heiresses caught on to Graham's plan and nodded as well. For most people, the Department was a mysterious force that existed only in rumors. It would be an honor if they had the chance to take a photo with one of the members.Most people couldn't even meet any Department members their whole lives, but they met those members twice in a span of mere days. What's more, they were both powerful members.

"But how do we change their minds? You know what they're like," said Roxanne.Hazel's face fell. Roxanne wasn't wrong. They'd told their elders about Zeke's strength over and over again, but they never did change how they saw Zeke. Hazel's parents were the worst of them all. They didn't just dislike Zeke; they absolutely loathed him. They thought he was the reason why Evan had divorced Hazel.Prejudice. It always tainted perceptions. No matter how brilliant a person was, nothing could change how someone thought about them if the bad impression was already root-deep. Yet Zeke was far too outstanding for prejudice to dismiss. He could change the fates of any family if he only said the word.Hazel and Roxanne thought their families were fools for not changing their minds. They were worried now that they saw firsthand just how Zeke was leading the Goldens to the top.Anya came back with some news. "Zeke said he's helping my family. We'll rule Silverton and gain purchase in Imperia

Hazel and Roxanne met up a while later. Both found out their families didn't trust a single word they'd said, and that they thought even less of Zeke. They were walking balls of fury as their minds replayed every word their families spat at them earlier."We've done everything we could. This is out of our hands."All they wanted was to help their family grasp a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. They didn't want their families to be blinded by prejudice, but they were mocked and chased away for their efforts. So, they would just sit back and watch the show.They'd witnessed Zeke's strength firsthand and were sure Zeke would become a top dog someday. It was their families' loss. They'd even shown their elders the badges' photos, but they didn't believe it either. It was obvious none of them wanted to get along with Zeke.If that was the case, they didn't have to try anymore. Prejudice wasn't something that could be washed away that easily, especially when their families had no vision a

Still, it didn't matter. What mattered was that his parents didn't abandon him. The fact that they gave him the pendant meant they loved him more than anything else in the world. They were hoping that someday Evan could crack the secret lying in the pendant and become stronger than anyone else, all so they could be reunited.Evan was moved. The pendant was proof of his parents' love for him, and he'd cracked the code of Ninefold Arcane Arts. Now he was a cultivator, but what bugged him was his parents' whereabouts. He wondered if they were even still alive. According to Kaldor, he had only extracted his father's blood during that hunt twenty years ago.Not even Kaldor knew if Evan's parents were still alive. He was only one of the many hunters. A legion of powerhouses stronger than him had undertaken that same hunt. 20 years had elapsed since then; there was a high chance that his parents might be in grave peril."Dad, Mom…" Evan's emotions were boiling under his skin. All he wa
