“I promise you, Enola, that I’ll still support your career in the entertainment industry after we’re married.”Enzo got down on one knee and presented an exquisite box to her. It was clear that it was a proposal ring.“Don’t do this, Enzo. You know that I’ve always treated you as my older brother. You’re just a brother to me!” Enola stumbled a few steps back when she saw this.“Is this because of Chase Collins? Stop wasting your time on him, Enola. He’s not coming back. He’s dead!” Enzo got up and moved in closer to her.“What do you mean? What happened to Chase?” Enola quickly asked when she heard the news about Chase.“It is because of him. What’s so great about him? He’s just a hothead, Enola. He offended some powerful people in Chitara, and he’s about to die for that. He won’t be coming back,” Enzo said without beating about the bush.“Come back to me, Enola. Come home and be the little princess of the Langdons, alright?”“Stop it, Enzo!” Enola moved back further.“Don’t be
“Even though I have no idea how you managed to leave Shelman Residence alive, this is the Langdons’ family issue. You should stay out of it. If I were you, I’d leave Chitara right now and stay as far away as possible. "Even if the Shelmans don’t go looking for you, others will come for you just to get into the Shelmans’ good graces.”Enzo stood up from the corner looking furious.Chase smiled when he heard this.The ancient martial arts families must have sealed the news and stopped word of whatever happened that day from leaking,However, even if the news did leak, Enzo would not have found out what happened as someone of his caliber would not be able to get the news. When Chase stayed silent, Enzo thought he had managed to put Chase in his place.“If you know what’s good for you, get lost. Don’t force me into revealing your location to everyone.”Enzo thought he had Chase figured and got even more arrogant.“You’re such a pitiful man. I’ll be frank with you. I’ve killed all
Enola’s fanboys were unhappy to see Chase walking down the red carpet and looking intimate with her. They huddled and began discussing this.After walking down the red carpet and signing on the huge board, Enola and Chase entered the theatre.Asher was busy entertaining his friends in the industry inside the theatre. They were all renowned critics and celebrities. For the drama to do well, the critics played an important part.If the drama was able to impress the critics and earn high praise from them at the very start, it would be able to attract the interest of the general public. The media had a lot of power, and no one should underestimate them.That was why Asher was busy entertaining everyone. As for Enola, she greeted and nodded at a few people she knew and did nothing else.Chase was the same as well.Both of them were in a relaxed mode.That was when Enola noticed someone unexpected was there too.Zara, whom Asher had kicked out of the production team, was there too. S
Someone took the lead to give the movie a standing ovation after it was over.Many were still crying from the drama. They were still invested in the story as it left a deep impression on them.“Say something, Asher.”“Yeah, say something.”Many of them asked Asher to give a speech after watching the screening.Asher was excited to see this. It meant that success was not far away if the majority loved his drama.He walked up the stage slowly.Asher calmed himself down before picking up the microphone to speak, “This drama is the best work I’ve done so far. It’s all thanks to good actors and the hard work of everyone behind the scenes. I won’t say much, but we’ll see each other during awards season.”He walked off the stage after this simple speech.“Congratulations, Asher. I can tell that this drama is going to win you an Oscar.” Ira went up to Asher and congratulated him right away.“You’re much too kind, Ira. Nothing is set in stone yet. We’ll see how things turn out,” Asher
“What are you waiting for? Just say yes.” Enola was even more anxious than Chase was.“I’m not interested,” Chase replied nonchalantly, astounding everyone present.What?Ira was offering the role to him personally, but he was rejecting it.Gosh.Had something gone wrong with the world?How could someone reject the chance to become famous?Anyone who worked on Ira’s productions was sure to become a renowned actor.“Can I know the reason for rejecting the offer?” Ira was astonished as well. He knew his own directing capabilities well and understood what his offer meant to others. However, Ira did not expect the young man in front of him to reject the offer without hesitation. “It’s because I don’t want to see him or her!” Chase pointed at Enzo and Zara.Zara had planned to just be an observer. However, Chase was pointing at her now. Only one word appeared in her mind—ridiculous.Who did he think Ira was? Chase was really full of himself if he thought he could threaten Ira li
“Can you tell me why you’re so determined for me to take the role?” Chase did not agree immediately but asked this question.A director of such high caliber had given up on an investor just because he had seen Chase’s acting and wanted him for the role. He had even offered to fulfill anything Chase wanted. Chase felt there must be something fishy about this.“Can we speak in private about this?” Ira looked around and pulled Chase away from the crowd.“Mr. Collins, the next movie I’m filming is called The Extraordinaire!” Ira said confidently.“So what?”“I know that you’re an extraordinaire!” Ira replied with conviction.Chase was astounded by his reply.An extraordinaire in this case meant that he was not an ordinary man. Ira had noticed this!“That’s why you want me for the role. Aren’t you afraid that ordinary people will see things not meant for them on the big screen?”Chase asked Ira.“There's nothing to worry about, Mr. Collins. Even if you were to display extraordinar
The old man suddenly changed the topic.“Unfortunately, young man, you’re ill-fated to have bumped into me!”He immediately made a palm attack on Chase after that. There was no energy emanating from his palm, and it looked like an attack from an ordinary man.No true energy was felt from it, but Chase’s senses were powerful enough to detect that there was energy strong enough to fill up the entire world.“Hah! Disperse that energy!”True energy enveloped Chase as his cultivation of stage-nine true master was immediately released. It was like he was finally released from a limited space and could finally use his power freely. This action alone made him break out in a sweat.Who was this powerful old man? They had just only met and Chase was already pushed into fighting with everything he had.There was not much time to think about this. Chase used every true energy within him to meet the attack with his palm.There was a loud explosion that rang in Chase’s ears. As the vigor of
“Who are you? Where am I?” Chase looked around. There was no one there. He could hear the voice but could not see the person.The wounds on Chase had disappeared as if the assassin from Martial Soul Hall was someone from his imagination.“How pitiful. You have no idea where you’re being locked up. It’s no wonder that you’re such a weak, useless thing,” the voice continued speaking with disdain.A stage-nine true master was being called a useless thing. Anyone who heard this would be stunned.“Sir, even though your cultivation is at a limitless level, I won’t stand to listen to you insulting me!” It did not matter how good-tempered Chase was. Even he was feeling mad at being made a fool of this way.“Hah! You’ve got quite a temper for someone with a cultivation level that’s not worth mentioning!”A figure appeared from the reflection below as it spoke.It was a bearded man who looked quite muscular. He appeared in front of Chase, barely covered in animal skin.“You’re the first
