"So my opponent tonight is Kirk Morrison!" The man moved, and everyone felt an intimidating force. Charles moved to protect Kirk. "Alistair Sinclair! How did you come to support Thomas?"The person before them, Alistair Sinclair, was an unstoppable force of nature. He was born with extraordinary strength, but he didn't like to fight, so he rarely showed up in fights. Now that he had shown up, not only Charles but even the Shadowers, who had never fought against him before, felt uneasy. Alistair was a mystery. Everyone knew he was formidable, but they didn't know how strong he was."Hahaha! How I came to here is quite a story, but let me make it short," Alistair said as he towered over them, laughing. "It's actually quite simple; my daughter fell sick, and when Thomas found out, he helped my daughter find the best doctor to cure her illness!"I promised that if he needed my help in the future, he could freely tell me to do so! I just didn't expect the first task would be to go
There was a loud noise, and the two knives in Alistair's neck emitted a buzzing sound before they were forcefully pushed away. Charles was unable to control his momentum and tumbled to the ground. However, Kirk had anticipated it. He tightened his grip on the knife, driving its tip forcefully into the ground. Even with that, the blade left a deep mark in the ground before stabilizing. Seeing Kirk in a rare state of disarray, Alistair chuckled heartily. "Mr. Kirk, while you have a talent for business, when it comes to strength, you can never beat me. Even if you had brought all the members of the Shadowers, it wouldn't have been enough."Besides, there are only a dozen people now. I don't know what you have against Thomas, but as old acquaintances, I advise you to retreat. If you can't defeat me, you won't stand a chance against those who come after …" His eyes widened in disbelief. Once again, he pressed his hand against the back of his head. The intense pain caused him to sta
At the same time, back at the hotel, Caroline couldn't sleep. Although she couldn't figure out what Kirk was doing, one thing was certain—it must be dangerous. Otherwise, Kirk wouldn't have kept it from her.She tossed and turned, still unable to sleep. She got up and poured herself a glass of water. After drinking the water, she felt even less sleepy. Caroline looked out of the window, irritated. She should have followed him when he had left instead of thinking about safety.But on second thought, she didn't know anything. Even if she had followed him, she would only have been a burden to him. When she thought about that, she felt even more upset. In the midst of her wandering thoughts, Caroline suddenly thought of Jude. She hadn't seen him since she had lost her memory. She wondered how he was doing. Was he still as healthy as before?As she thought of him, she felt guilty. Jude was probably the only person in the Morrisons who had hoped she would marry Eddy. He had also treat
"It's impossible for you to cross from here on out!" Someone scoffed. "In the end, they're still just mechanical dogs. Let's see if these mechanical dogs can still move if we kill their master!"Martha retorted, "That's right, I have the remote in my hands. But you still need to take it from me!" She seemed completely unconcerned that her weakness was exposed. Instead, she arrogantly waved the remote around in the air. Bang—Taking advantage of the opportunity, a member of the Shadowers shot at the remote. However, just as soon as the gun was fired, a dog caught the bullet in its mouth.The Shadowers were stunned to see this. Even Charles was atonished. "It seems that after Finn established his authority in Macldo, your research also gained a lot of resources," Kirk said. Martha finally turned to look at Kirk. "Oh, if it isn't the famous CEO of SY from Macldo, Mr. Kirk Morrison? Oh, dear, look at my memory. From now on, there isn't a Kirk Morrison in Macldo anymore, only our
When the other Living Reapers saw this, they hastily called for their machines to swarm Kirk like bees to a hive. However, it was too late. Kirk was at the pond. Once the machines fell into the water, they were useless.And without the machines, the Four Living Reapers were useless. As they tried to escape, the Shadowers surrounded them. They were quickly subdued with a twist of their necks."Heh, they claimed to be the most powerful inventors in Finn's team, and this is what happens. Remember, in your next life, don't invent flawed machines. Or you won't even know how you'll die.""Enough." Charles interrupted the Shadowers. "If you have the energy to say this, why not focus it on the next person?"As his words fell, the celebratory atmosphere became solemn. Someone couldn't help but ask Charles discreetly, "Charles, why do we have to go in? Is it that important to check whether Eddy is dead?"Charles shot him a cold look. "What don't you understand?"They could only be at eas
Unfortunately, the men she encountered …"Your charm won't work on us, lady. Hurry up and use all your tricks." Charles frowned at the woman in front of him. He turned to Kirk and said, "Sir, this woman doesn't even have a single strand of hair as beautiful as Mrs. Morrison's. It's quite amusing that she's trying so hard to flaunt her beauty!"Upon hearing that, the woman's face changed dramatically, and the gentleness from before disappeared. "What did you say?"The woman rushed forward and grabbed Charles by the neck. "Who is this 'Mrs. Morrison' you're talking about? I don't believe it. There's no one more beautiful than me in this world!"Bring her here! Bring her to me!" The woman's movements were so fast that they startled the Shadowers. Even Kirk narrowed his eyes at her. He had been right next to Charles, but he couldn't see what she was doing clearly. Moreover, even after a while, he couldn't figure out where this woman had come from. He could only guess from her act
Meanwhile, at the hotel, Caroline's restlessness had reached its peak. For some reason, every time she closed her eyes, she immediately envisioned the gruesome scene of Kirk's death.Just as she was tormented to the brink of a nervous breakdown, the phone rang on the table. The sharp and piercing sound almost made her jump out of her skin. She picked it up and saw that it was Thomas.Caroline didn't have much of an impression of the man who had almost become her father-in-law. She only remembered that he wasn't overly warm or cold toward her. They had rarely spoken to each other.After much hesitation, Caroline answered the phone. Thomas' hearty laughter came through. "Is this Caroline?""Yes, Uncle Thomas. Is there something important for you to call me so late?" He didn't answer her question but chuckled and said, "It's so hard to get a hold of you."Caroline was confused. She asked, "Uncle Thomas, what do you mean by that?""Do you still not know? Caroline, to prevent us fro
"Gwen's heading over to see you," Sean said. "You're the most important person to Kirk. As long as you stay safe, he'll be able to fight without holding back."Caroline furrowed her brows. She didn't want to do as she was told, but she knew that she wouldn't be of help even if she headed over to Kirk's side now. She might even become a burden and drag him down. After calming down, she decided not to go and see Kirk for herself, despite the rising anxiety in her heart. Soon, Gwen arrived to stay with Caroline. "Carol, why don't we watch TV?" Gwen suggested. After all, the two of them couldn't sleep. They couldn't just sit there and do nothing while they waited.Caroline sat on the bed with her arms wrapped around her knees. Her eyes were out of focus. She nodded as she stared blankly ahead. One glance at her told Gwen that Caroline wasn't really listening. In truth, even Gwen herself was overwhelmed with anxiety and worry for Sean. The place he was going to was definitely
