Semua Bab The Barren Luna’s Revenge; Dear Ex, Your Only Heir Is Mine: Bab 171 - Bab 177

Silas' povThe bloodied letter on my desk took the smile and confidence that I thought that I had gained.As I watched the bloodied letter, it felt like a hand was repeatedly smacking my face.“Why don't you just die?” I stared hard at the letter as if my stare could end the life of whoever wrote the letter.“What's the matter?” My assistant, my capable Beta, said as he leaned to look at my letter.“Stop that.” I held the letter, encasing its contents with my hands.This Beta was good in every aspect, but he was too nosy. Nosy, curious people always did not last.“Yes.” My Beta bowed low, his voice apologetic. “I just wanted to share the burden of my Alpha.”His sincere plea touched my heart; it had been so long since anyone ever looked at me or talked to me in such a manner.Carmen used to do it, but after I betrayed her, she became a shadow of herself. I still missed her, always would miss her.“You should understand that some things are not to be known by you; you stand the risk of

Silas' pov“You're right. We can use Jaime.” I nodded, glancing at Chloe happily.Finally, she can be of some use rather than standing every day like a sorry sight.Chloe blinked with confusion. Clearly, she did not expect me to thank her. It had been a long time since we had both come together to work out something.Chloe was definitely not bad. In fact, she had a lot of sync with me. Our minds could think of similar things most times, and when we cooperated together, we almost never lost the game.As much as I hated her guts now, I still could not deny that she was a very valuable asset to me.“You are not planning on using that Beta that has gotten to Jaime, right? Isn't it too early?” Chloe said, immediately latching on to my plan like a koala.“No.” I shook my head. “Jaime is not a person that uses his brains a lot. He is more of a brute, a loyal brute. He has a glaring weakness; if he likes you, he likes you.”“My Beta has already gotten to Jaime and has reported positively. If

Cayden's pov“That's General Voss' distant nephew. His uncle is the mayor of the city.”The terrified scream of the green-haired lady rang out.On one hand, she was grateful we helped her eliminate a problem, and on the other hand, she was sad that we had sealed our own coffin.“Ohh, that's even better.” Jaime locked his lips, rubbing his palms together.That expression on his face—I had only seen it when Jaime had been thoroughly infuriated. All that remained was to kill and eliminate all threats.“Murder.” Weak shouts filled the air as the people scattered about. Scattered about was too much of an overstatement.Weak legs and malnourished bodies could only take them so far. They all left for a short while and fell to the floor again, their eyes swallowed with extreme hunger.“Why did you guys not go out of the city when it got worse? If you went out and went to the abandoned forest, there has to be food?”The green-haired woman shook her head at me. “You don't understand. This is ex

Cayden's pov“You would regret this.” The old steward breathed through his nose as he dragged his young master's corpse away.“Don't worry. I am right behind you.” I waved at the old man who had the stench of evil wafting out from him.“Cayden.” Jaime paused, his hands clicking on the message on his phone.His voice had an inexplicable rage, not the rage from earlier that stemmed from watching your people and your father's legacy collapse. No!The rage that came when you felt betrayed, neglected and not trusted enough.“What's wrong?” I answered, head already leaning towards his phone.The sender was titled the fool so I already knew it was not going to be a good thing.And yes, the fool was more foolish than I thought. Was Mark really the son of general Voss?I found it hard to believe that a trigger could birth a dog or a peacock could be the sister of a peasant.The messages rolled out one by one, the ridiculous message that clearly had treason and betrayal in every single line.
