After Old Master Severe recovered from his shock, he suddenly became irritated when he heard Lady Severe say those discouraging words. “I know that you all love Angeline and you’re not willing to let her fall sick. But you have to understand that the life you want for Angeline might not be what she likes. Should a person live just to have food in their mouth?“Angeline is not someone who gets beaten that easily, believe me. She will stand up again. Didn’t I get back on my feet too?” said the old master.Lady Severe protested against the old master for the first time. “Father, you’re not Angeline, so you don’t know her pain. Angeline is such an excellent girl. She has great values and such good looks. Being sick at such an age would be the cruelest thing that could happen to her. You got back on your feet because Angeline built up Severe Group and made you realize that there was hope. But now, where is hope for Angeline?”Old Master Severe sank into silence.Zayne’s voice was choked
The training ground.Jenson’s perfect body stood as straight as a pencil as he waited silently for the other teachers and students to arrive.Dan Cullen pushed through the horde of students into the training ground. When he saw Jenson standing in the arena, he realized what was going on.“Big Brother wants to challenge the only graduation module for this month. Since we’ve acknowledged him as our big brother, we should help him.”“How are we going to do that?” asked the other students.“Nonsense, we’ll give up on the exam this time so that Big Brother won’t have much trouble. Only then can he save his strength for the teachers,” said Dan.Soon enough, Mr. Cornelius walked into the training ground with heavy footsteps and his hands behind his back.All of a sudden, the training ground went silent.Mr. Cornelius looked at the students sitting on the spectator seats and asked in bewilderment, “Why not go ahead and challenge?”All of the students were so spirited, so logically spe
“You’d lose for sure.”“Should we leave? It’d be embarrassing if you lost, Big Brother. Let’s just let him have this round and we’ll step back, shall we?”However, Mr. Cornelius abruptly kicked Jenson off the ring at that moment. If it were not for the ropes supporting him, Jenson would have fallen flat to the ground. If he did, it would have been a loss.His classmates looked awkwardly at Jenson who had fallen in front of them and comforted, saying, “Jens, it doesn’t matter if you lose. You’ll still be our big brother.”“Yeah. You’ll be our leader forever in this lifetime.”Jenson’s handsome face showed a determined sneer. Then, he continued, “Who said that I’ll lose?” At that second, he pulled the rope hard and a miracle appeared. All of the ropes in the ring moved swiftly, akin to a butterfly effect. Almost in the blink of an eye, Mr. Cornelius was tied up by the ropes like a roasted chicken and hung high in the air.Jenson was quickly bounced back into the ring by the m
“I’ll return the book to her in one piece…”Before he could finish his sentence, Mr. Cornelius refused and said, “A leaked secret book is no longer a secret book for the Cornelius family. Take it. That way, the 100 whips that Whitney endured would not be in vain.”Jenson felt guilty and muttered, “I am the one at fault.”Mr. Cornelius continued, “She asked me to tell you that when she can’t be by your side in the future, you must take good care of yourself.”Jenson quietly nodded his head. “Okay.”Jenson got his graduation certificate from Legendary Youth Academy and immediately rushed to Legendary Airport.The students had already lined up at the road beside the airport entrance. With his classmates sending him off, Jenson boarded the only means of transportation between the Legendary Youth Academy and the outside world.“Goodbye, Big Brother.” Dan and his classmates waved goodbye at him.Jenson stood at the airplane window and looked back at the academy.He had always rega
Master Severe snorted coldly before turning and leaving.Anne pulled her suitcase along and left decisively. In Imperial Capital, Bell Enterprise.When Anne came to the Bell family’s courtyard and saw the atmosphere there, she thought about how Sera was the Bells’ flesh and blood. She was a little proud as her adoptive mother. The Bells’ servants brought her straight to Sera who was looking at Anne with contempt.“Why are you here looking for me?” Sera asked even though she was well aware of the reason.Anne’s slightly aged yet charming face managed to squeeze out an awkward smile, but it was transient. Then, Anne tried to flatter her by saying, “Sera, Mom came here today bringing you good news.”Sera looked at her somewhat suspiciously. “Tell me.”“Angeline’s in a critical condition,” Anne continued, “She can’t even take care of herself anymore. All she does every day is curl up on her bed, not talking to anyone and crying her eyes out. In my opinion, she’s completely paraly
After Marilyn left Jay, she moved into the sizable luxury condominium that Angeline had gifted to her—the Southern Memoir. Jay’s abrupt visit utterly made Marilyn dumbfounded when she laid her eyes on him.“Ben…” As soon as she uttered the name, she remembered that he had gained his memory back and respectfully changed her words. “Master Ares, why are you here?”Jay remained expressionless, but there was a natural resistance when he spoke, “Marilyn, take me to the place where my accident happened.”Marilyn was stunned as she nodded. “Alright.”She carried Tiger and went downstairs with Jay.After half an hour, Jay and Marilyn appeared in Tourmaline Estate.The once magnificent Tourmaline Estate had now turned to ashes. The newly developing manor was now progressing slower than a turtle’s pace. After three full years, only the rudiments of Tourmaline could be seen.Jay looked at Marilyn suspiciously. “You found me wounded here?”Marilyn shook her head. “I passed by the Areses’
At this moment, Tiger suddenly started to cry. “Mommy, I want to get out of the car. Let me get out of the car.”Marilyn had always been impatient in handling her child. In this situation, she would merely smack the back of her child’s head and exclaim, “Why are you crying? You’re not allowed to cry!”Tiger rolled down from her and ran to Jay. “Daddy!”Marilyn’s face turned pale in fright. Jay was no longer the gentle and considerate Ben that they knew before. Moreover, he knew that Tiger was not his child, so there was no reason for him to be kind toward him.As expected, Jay responded with a straight face, “Go back to your mommy.”Tiger was frightened upon hearing his cold voice and cried even harder.Tiger’s wailing was filling up the whole car, and it was irritating everyone inside.The young man suddenly pulled Tiger over. “Come here, Big Brother will play with you.”Then, the youngster took out a pocket watch from his chest and waved it in front of Tiger. Before long, Tig
Jay dumbfoundedly looked at the young man with a fixated gaze.The youngster responded, “The story was touching.”Jay drooped his eyelashes. ‘So the story merely moved him.’It had been more than three years since the accident took place, so there were barely any traces left.Jay was determined to search the area Marilyn pointed at and was still hoping for an unexpected gain.There were barren mountains and ridges everywhere, except for a single mountain road. Weeds, thorns, trees, and shrubs surrounded the whole area. Searching for remains from an accident that took place three years ago was no easy task.However, all hard work would eventually pay off.The youngster managed to stumble upon a necklace in the field of grass—a skull necklace. The young man lifted the necklace as Sera sneered, “That thing looks like it came from a street vendor. People like Master Ares would definitely not wear such a juvenile and cheap item.”The youngster held the necklace tightly in his palm
