After hearing what Jay said, Angeline’s anger dissipated greatly. She got out of bed but was held back by Josephine instead. “Don’t believe them. We don’t have keyboards here nor do we have durians. You mustn’t be soft-hearted. Make sure you teach him a lesson or he won’t learn from his mistake. With the first time, there will be a second.”Therefore, Angeline lay down on the bed again sullenly.However, she just could not fall asleep no matter how hard she tossed and turned in bed.After God knew how long, she sighed inwardly and eventually got out of bed. She walked to the door panel and gently slid it open.Zayne was sitting on the ground, whereas Jay was kneeling down. They were leaning on each other shoulder-to-shoulder with their backs against the door panel. At once, they both fell at Angeline's feet.Angeline was astonished. "You’re actually kneeling down?”Jay looked pitifully at Angeline with a gaze as innocent as a tiny wolf pup, his eyes filled with a great sense of g
Baby Robbie, "..."Feeling guilty, Baby Robbie grew impatient. "Stop talking nonsense. What’s this performance about?""It’s a talent show."In a flash of realization, Baby Robbie asked, "Are you going to demonstrate the self-help technique of untying a knot?”Jenson said, "That’s the last step. I think Mommy will stop being so worried about you getting abducted by bad guys after seeing how skillful you are.”Baby Robbie was speechless. "Why would I get abducted when I’m already so big?”He would more likely be the one to abduct others.Jenson said, "No one can untie my dead knot. If you can, then this performance will be a success."Now wanting to be defeated, Baby Robbie stretched out his hands. "Go ahead and tie me up, then. I’d like to see how a knot tied by a genius like you will be any different. There isn’t a knot in this world that I can't untie."Jenson wrapped the rope around Baby Robbie’s wrist, circling it over and over again… He tied a knot with every circle he ma
It was time for them to bid farewell.Baby Robbie had a lot to say to Jenson, but for some reason, he was so drowsy that his eyelids started drooping.His gaze fell on the glass of water on the bedside table. He then realized in hindsight that he had been bottled up like a turtle trapped in a jar by Jenson the moment he came home tonight.“What did you put in my drink?”Jenson sat in front of Baby Robbie, his voice sounding as melodious as a broadcaster—so gentle it was as if it had the power to heal heartaches."Baby Robbie, I know that you’re very skilled in martial arts, but in order to stop you from escaping, I put some cartilage-weakening powder in your drink. Don't worry, neither the biochemical glue nor the cartilage-weakening powder will last. Give it at most 48 hours and you’ll be free again.”Baby Robbie’s voice grew weaker and weaker. "Your battle with the military intelligence division will be over after 48 hours. You’re really cunning, Jenson."Jenson put Baby Robbi
"Get up." Monster looked at the dazed-looking Sis Daisy, his icy face going back to normal. A trace of warmth returned to his ruthless voice. "Pour me a glass of water."Sis Daisy got up while trembling and walked to the water dispenser. She poured him a glass of hot water, then mixed it with some cold water before turning around and walking up to Monster. She handed over the glass of water reverently with both hands.“Have some water, Father.”Monster took the glass of water but froze slightly when he heard how bitter Sis Daisy sounded when she addressed him. He suddenly put the glass of water on the coffee table next to him and pulled Sis Daisy into his arms.“How can you bring yourself to call me ‘Father’? You refused to call me that last time.”Sis Daisy was flushed, but her eyes were abnormally cold. There was a trace of grievances in her voice. "I’m supposed to call you ‘Father’ since you refuse to marry me.""I’ll marry you gracefully after I destroy Doomsday and the Ares
However, Monster changed the subject and said, "I’ll leave this task to you.”Sis Daisy felt a chill racing down her spine… "Take advantage of the chaos tonight, and when she dies, I want you to put the blame on Doomsday. Lil Fox is really close to her, so this will be a good opportunity to sow dissension between Lil Fox and Doomsday," Monster said sullenly.Sis Daisy nodded.When Sis Daisy walked out of Monster's room with a heavy heart, her brows were furrowed.Monster wanted her to deal with Iris herself?She could not bring herself to do it.Agents of the military intelligence division should remain celibate and loveless. This was something Daisy had done really well in the previous years. She killed others as though they were insects, slashing others with a clean sword and drawing out a crimson sword as if her pain receptors had been numbed.However, ever since the naive and innocent Lil Fox appeared, her cold and solid heart was melted by Lil Fox as he constantly called
Jenson looked suspiciously at Grand Old Master Yorks. "What’s wrong, Great-grandpa?"Grand Old Master Yorks asked, "Does your Dad know about this? This is no small matter." He feared that Jay was only busy billing and cooing with his wife that he had forgotten all about his children.Jenson laughed. "Great-grandpa, everything is done based on Daddy’s instructions.”Grand Old Master Yorks was astonished. He had been paying close attention to his grandson Jay and knew that he was busy giving Cole trouble these days while also polishing jade for Angeline… Who would have thought that a meticulously-devised scheme was hidden under his unruly and egotistical appearance?Grand Old Master Yorks exclaimed, "So it’s part of his plan to get you to replace Baby Robbie?“Isn’t he afraid of losing you by doing this, though?”Both Baby Robbie and Jenson were twins, so it stood to reason that they were both equally important. Though secretly, Grand Old Master Yorks favored Jenson more due to h
"You don't know Baby Robbie at all, Great-grandpa. Baby Robbie is a kind soul, and the most he will do is fight for injustice. He will never slaughter an entire clan.”Grand Old Master Yorks’ eyes turned cold abruptly.In other words, Jenson was trying to tell him that it was not Baby Robbie’s intention to look for Nine Paintings. Therefore, was the mysterious organization behind Baby Robbie Doomsday’s enemy?Grand Old Master Yorks’ eyes were surging in secret. He looked up at the hazy sky and sighed. "I’ve never seen such a brilliant blue sky in Mount Pearl before. I knew a long time ago that Doomsday will one day receive retribution, Jens. I’m not afraid of retribution. I just don’t want the innocent women and children in 108 Strongholds to be harmed."Jenson felt conflicted about Doomsday. He was supposed to hate Doomsday, but because of Great-grandpa's love for him, this hatred was starting to fade.“A country has its laws and a family has its rules, Great-grandpa. The evil or
Noel understood what he meant. "Oh, you need me to be her matchmaker?”Judy was the most beautiful maiden in the Yorks’ stronghold. She was also a skilled fighter, most probably because she inherited her father's talent.The Yorks’ stronghold had always been a place that put more emphasis on martial arts than literature. Good-looking young girls like Judy who were good at martial arts were especially popular among the opposite sex.Judy was a girl with an exceptionally broad outlook in life, but she had yet to find a man she was attracted to after all these years.The scrawny old man nodded. "She’s infatuated with a man and wants you to help her seek a marriage alliance.”Grand Old Master Yorks was instantly interested when he heard that Judy was in love. He asked curiously, "Who is this man?”The scrawny old man hesitated for a moment, looking at the old man awkwardly.Grand Old Master Yorks was awfully impatient by now. "C’mon, don’t keep me guessing. I’m curious to know which
