Taking a deep breath, Claire explained how that faithful night progressed, detailing everything Claire and Steve did to one another. Tabitha was shocked by what her sister did with another man and was deeply upset over her sister’s actions but kept quiet as Claire continued to explain how Blake took great care of her when she was in pain and unable to walk correctly. Her realizing that Blake was always there for her and cared for her. Coming to this part of her explanation, tears began to swell into her eyes again, knowing she had lost a good man.“That’s when I decided not to pursue Steve anymore and work on my marriage with Blake; he had already found out.”“How did he find out about you and Steve?”“After confronting the two women and straightening the misunderstanding at the doctor’s office where we met. He was sitting in that chair waiting for me with an envelope with pictures and video of Steve and me with the divorce papers and a bank card. I’m not sure who gave it to him, but
“What’s the matter?”Julie asked.“How can you two live like this? What have you done to the kitchen? Don’t you only order takeout?” Tabitha gasped over the unsanitary conditions of the kitchen.“Leave it for the cleaners tomorrow,” Julie said, rolling her eyes. She did have someone from the cleaning company, but when they arrived, they wanted more people and money to do the job, and she refused and decided to call around more, but she didn’t want the girls to know.“Forget it. Let’s go eat out my treat. I finished my exams and want to celebrate.” Tabitha said, making a call as she walked out and made the personal call from the bathroom.She called her BMW company to arrange for a car and driver, knowing they were all going to drink and needed a reliable driver for the night. The three got ready for the dinner date; it was a long time since all three had been together for a family meal, and when the time to leave came, a BMW M2 and a female driver arrived in front of their home.“Who’s
“What an excellent view,” Julie exclaimed.“Oh, how romantic. How I wish someone would bring me there for a date.” Tabitha said, looking dreamy at the scene on the pond.All the women’s attention was brought to the romantic atmosphere, and they sighed in their hearts, wanting the same as the woman receiving this treatment.“Forget it. Let’s order.” Sylvia said, looking into the menu.The women ordered their drinks and were having small talk when the maître d’ arrived in front of Sylvia.“Pardon the interruption. Would you happen to be Miss. Sylvia Elon?”“Yes, is there a problem?”“The gentleman would like to apologize for being extremely late and would like you to join him.”Sylvia looked at the women and excused herself. This was the reason she was here, to have a business meeting.Sylvia followed the maître d’ out of the balcony, and he guided her towards the small bridge leading to the island’s gazebo. Even though she was confused about the maître d’’s actions, she continued to fo
“I’m sorry, Sylvia, for all this interruption. But you may not know they are here to cause trouble, and I’ll have security escort them out.” Steve said as he motioned to one of the staff to come over.“Do not use my name as you please. We are not that close, we only met once, and I’m still not impressed. As for the relations between you and the Westons, I’m fully aware.” Sylvia said angrily. “Also, when you meet my cousin Blake, I believe you owe him your head, large and small.” Sylvia then rose from her seat.“Miss. Elon, Sylvia, there must be a misunderstanding; how could that trash be your cousin?” Steve was surprised by this information and couldn’t believe it.“Believe it or not, there is no misunderstanding, Blake Elon is my cousin, and Tabitha is my sister; what else is there to explain?” Sylvia said casually.Not only Steve. Claire and Julie were shocked over this news, and both mother and daughter looked at Tabitha with questioning looks while Steve shook his head in denial.
A seductive voice came out of the shadows with a beautiful woman walking toward them.“Would I suffice as a powerful backer, Mr. Anderson?”It was Dynasty Syrum, walking and stopping next to Tabitha. Claire, struggling, stopped and stared at the woman next to her sister. Steve began sweating, and his heart beat faster as pure fear escaped him. Having Sylvia Elon as a sister was one thing, but to have the Princess of Swanville as your backer was another.“Wow, now there’s another one. How many women did this man offend?”“She looks better than all of them, and she also looks familiar.”“Will you please be quiet? That’s Dynasty Syrum, Princess of Swanville. He’s done for now, and I wonder what big family they come from to have her as their backer?”“M….Miss. Dynasty, what do I owe the pleasure?” Steve studdered.“For starters, you can let the woman go. I don’t think she wants to accompany you.”Steve reluctantly let Claire go and ran to her mother, then behind Dynasty, looking at her as
“Cough, I think we should continue our conversation as we eat. I’m sure that is what Mary was to inform us am I right?”“Yes, mam. Dinner is ready.”They followed the maid into the dining room and sat in front of many delicious foods. The meal was silent, and the only thing they heard was their utensils as they ate.“Do you love him?” Claire asked, to break the silence only to have more silence after everyone stopped eating, obviously targeting Dynasty with her question.“Cough, cough, pardon?”“I asked. Do you love him?” Claire asked, this time with more force as she clinched onto her napkin.“What is there not to love? He is like a god coming from the heavens with his physical stature. But not only can his looks make any woman fall for him, but his decisive attitude toward his enemies makes him a mighty opponent, as his kindness towards his family and friends is genuinely astonishing. I really pity the Anderson family, especially Steve Anderson. He and don’t know the hornet nest he’
Still, damp from his swim, Steve returned home, called his father, and explained everything to him. His father was quiet on the other end until he finally spoke.“Didn’t I warn you about pursuing the Dalton woman? I wanted you to focus on Miss. Sylvia Elon? Not only did you insult Miss. Elon, but you made her your enemy by having an extramarital affair with her beloved cousin’s wife! It would have been better if you could have obtained the photos and video, but it was lost and destroyed. Now you have The Syrum Syndicate’s Princess protecting them. What unlucky star you were born under, I do not know.” Mr. Alex Anderson said on the other end.“What do we do now?” Steve asked. “Dad, I don’t want to be fish food.”“Go back to Missouri; run that branch for now. I’ll think of something. It makes perfect sense why Elon Trust is now interested in real estate.” Alex stated, thinking about how they lost the bid.“I’ll leave tonight,” Steve said and got ready to move to Missouri.Another year h
As Blake made his way to Elon Trust, he called Jenkins, renewed the divorce papers, and had him send a thirty million dollar card. Entering the office area Susan Writtle followed him into his office with his schedule.“Sir, I thought you would take a couple of days off?” Susan asked. She was hoping to get off early today.“Just here for a little while to review some notes and wait for a delivery. What is going on today?” Blake asked as she handed the tablet.“The real estate property was acquired with little cost to us,” Susan explained, knowing Blake was eyeing this area.“Okay, any more real estate that comes over, grab it and create a real estate department to handle the development affairs.” Blake then handed her the tablet and began going over his email.Susan left the room to have Sylvia arrive shortly and sat in one of the chairs in front of his desk.“How’s grampa?”“He’s doing fine.”“And yourself?”“He’s not doing fine at all,” Tabby said, coming out of the jade ring.“Tabby
“No one is saying for you to leave,” Xuanlu said, seeing the fear and panic in Jacqueline’s eyes.“But you must also show kindness and love towards my husband. Don’t think I didn’t see your hostility towards Blake earlier.” Xuanlu said with an evil grin.Jacqueline nodded, sighing in relief, looked at Blake, and showed a loving smile. This was the magic of the dragon’s aura on a mortal. They would do anything required of them by their Master. Right now, Xuanlu was Jacqueline’s Master.“Mistress, Master, I, Jacqueline, will take good care of the both of you for the rest of my life,” Jacqueline stated and, without warning, began to undress.Jacqueline hadn’t much; she only had a grey wool dress with nothing underneath. Her large breasts were exposed, and a mound of hair hiding her valley of womanhood became visible as she stood before the couple, waiting for their command.Xuanlu was startled as the woman before them stripped of her clothing and awaited their commands. Blake would be ly
The color went out of his face, and he stared at the two women, his love clinging to the other’s neck. He blinked a few times as the situation couldn’t be processed instantly. Jacqueline was leaving him for another woman; leaving for another man was one thing, but for another woman? Granted, Xuanlu was a gorgeous woman, the most beautiful he had ever laid eyes upon, but for the love of his life to say she preferred another woman over him, to see her giving the other woman such a kiss that he had never received, his stupified feelings became anger.Grabbing the embedded cleaver, Brutus swung it towards the two women. The force and momentum of the swing would split Jacqueline into two, but a sound of metal hitting metal was suddenly heard, and Brutus's force was stopped instantly.“Cling”Brutus was shocked at the scene he was seeing. There, on his clever that could slice an animal through and through bone, was being held by two fingers accompanied by Blake.“Sir, I believe you are bein
“Master and Misses. Please, this way.” Soto Asa said and beckoned them to the entrance of the restaurant.Blake and Xuanlu entered the building only to find that it more or less looked like a tavern than a restaurant. What were they expecting? This was, after all, a small village. Ignoring the decore, they sat at one of the tables as many were curious why such royalty was coming here.A nervous young woman arrived and smiled her best at the couple. With a massive bustline and hourglass figure, she looked like she would be the most beautiful in the village. She was quite the looker, with an innocence on her face. She has wavy, long, auburn hair and blue eyes. But compared to Xuanlu, she paled in appearance.“What can we do for you?” She asked, smiling intensely.“What meals do you recommend for breakfast?” Xuanlu asked with a lovely voice that the men and woman fell in love with upon hearing.Since her cultivation had risen, Xuanlu’s seductive dragon aura had also risen, making her mor
Blake Prime was sitting in a luxurious carriage, being pulled by four white horses with black horns on their heads. His eyes closed as they traveled to the middle of the Provenances to meet with the Emperor. He suddenly opened his eyes with a smile. Xuanlu, sitting next to him, was sleeping soundly, laying her head on his shoulder.“What a formidable Seal,” Blake said. In the past, when his clones were far away, they could not communicate with one another until they were rejoined or closer together, causing them to lapse with the information arriving swiftly. This changed since the Mind Palace had the Stone Steely arrive with the Scripture. They were indeed one but not one. It was complex, but it was worth it not to have this weakness. Everything the clones were doing now was within Blake’s knowledge. Still, he could also stop the information when they required alone time with his women so he would not be distracted during a critical situation and vice versa.Blake then looked down at
Lucy was startled and cried out when the Soul Brand was placed on her soul for Blake to control her. She didn’t think that Blake would use such an unscrupulous method on her.“I’m taking precautions. How am I to know if you have a way to break the Dao pledge? This way, you can’t use other methods to deceive me. If you had been honest with me initially, maybe I would have trusted you more.” Blake Three stated with a smirk.In truth, Lucy did have a way to break the oath but didn’t want to bring it out until the last moment and stab Blake in the back. But now, with the Scripture Soul Brand upon her soul, she had no other choice but to obey Blake’s will and command.If Lucy had known that Blake had such malice intentions upon her, she would have never revealed the Soul Brand and its power over others. She looked over at Bob, gritted her teeth, and blamed Bob for telling Michael about their seals.Bob looked at Lucy apologetically. All she wanted to do was ease Michael’s worries, but she
“Hey, I’m not a devil. I’m a Fallen Angel.” Lucy replied. Taking offense to what Sylvia had said.“Okay, don’t get your panties in a bunch. I was only joking with the fellow. Besides, you look great. Do you want to get tea later?” Sylvia replied.“Sylvia. This is not the time.” Blake Three stated, shaking his head in disbelief at his cousin constantly hitting on his women.“I was only being friendly, a goodwill gesture for my joke at her expense.” Sylvia gave an innocent look towards the group, making her seem being wronged by Blake Three.“Claire is taking the stage, so to speak. Let’s listen to what she has to say.” Blake Three said, changing the subject.“Thank you all for coming. I want to inform you all that there has been a breach on Earth and many other planets where the Upper Realm had released many to cause damage to the people and bring them closer to the church for salvation. A Fallen had orchestrated this with the help of the Upper Realm’s Guardian of the Heavenly Tribulat
An hour had passed, and all were ready to depart. The many women surrounding Claire waited impatiently when two children and a black horse with a golden horn arrived.“I said for you two to come along, why a horse. Why are you bringing a horse with you?” Claire asked, surprised to see Huang’s arrival.“He also wanted to travel and wouldn’t take no for an answer.” Ye Chen embarrassingly stated, placing his hand behind his head.This reminded Claire of Blake, and she could not help but smile a little.“It’s fine, Mother. Huang will be of great help.” Elsie stated but didn’t elaborate.All went to the Transportation Formation, and soon, a blue hue surrounded them. They had to enter the Empire City’s Transportation formation to arrive in the Small World.“Why doesn’t Blake utilize his skill and have all the Formations travel to the Small World?” Sylvia wondered.“It’s a fallback plan. With only one hub, it’ll stop accidents from happening and have people arriving in the Small World.” Sara
Ye Chen and Su Yuhan stopped their sparing and watched as their Master’s wife was talking and arguing with herself. When Claire noticed, she became embarrassed over her actions since she didn’t keep it inside while talking with Roseline.“That’s all for today. Go and have fun. All cultivation and no relaxing can cause bottlenecks in the future. Keep it all equal; work and fun go hand in hand.” Claire said, and then she departed from the courtyard, with the confused children watching her rushing over to her room.Claire entered her mind Palace and encountered Goddess Roseline standing there looking at Claire with sorrow.“Claire, I’m….” Roseline began but was interrupted by Claire.“Save it. We have much to discuss.” Claire said, looking at Roseline indifferently.“You’re right. As far as my Grandfather said, the people that have infiltrated the Earth are hiding in a place known for its war-torn environment, making them hide their auras. I’m unfamiliar with your world’s landscape, but
Roseline could have sworn that she had misheard her Grandfather.“There is no return mission, so will all those people?” Roseline asked.“It’s been decided that they will be eliminated when their worth is no longer needed, or if they can ascend again, the Heavenly Tribulation will be used to the max and destroy them without a soul to return,” Harold said, looking at Roseline.“Well, you are now back, and they will not be used in such a manner. You can stop them.” Roseline said, looking like a heroine.“It’s too late. They have already descended and are waiting on the sign to attack.” Harold said, disheartened.“Already? How many?” Roseline asked.“As many as a million strong. They are in a remote area, keeping a low profile, not even releasing their auras due to a powerful individual who showed himself, so they will not be discovered until the destructive force arrives.” Harold said, shaking his head, depressed for what he had allowed to be done through being controlled.Roseline thou
