BANG! BANG!The men slam into the nearby walls, landing on the floor with a loud thud."Ah! Pftt!" They cry out and spit out blood, two of their front teeth dropping down the floor!"Mmm, it hurts. It hurts," they groan, tears pouring down their cheeks as they keep trembling."You two dared touch my woman with your filthy hands! You dared touch my woman! Ooo!" Lucien roars in an unearthly voice.In an instant, he vanishes from where he is standing and reappears in front of them."Get me gasoline and matchsticks, Declan! They will be burnt alive!" He issues a cold order, thick veins throbbing all over him and his face dark!"Yes, Lucien!" Declan responds and walks out.Lucien bends, grabs the two men, and drags them all the way back to Juliet.He makes them sit, their backs resting on each other, and intertwines their hands together in a way that would make it hard for them to free themselves, let alone escape."Ahh, master! Save us!" They cry out."He pulled down my zip, Lucien. They
The whole place is so quiet that only the thumping of hearts can be heard. Even cars are no longer moving to and fro. The busy street is unexpectedly quiet and free of noise.If not that people are still feeling alive, they would have thought something or someone has just put everyone and everything on pause.It is the very first time, West Broad Street will be so silent and idle.Earlier, when the two burly men were on their way to stripping Juliet, the Lady's Galaxy customers had been cheering them on and urging them to be quick but now in front of Lucien's cold gaze and Brianna's ruthless statement, breathing is so hard for them!Just now, they were about to watch a pleasant show, one of the best they would have probably watched but suddenly the voice of someone echoed, and the next moment the two burly men were sent flying with just a kick from him!A kick! And to top it all, it was from Lucien, the so-called pauper! They are beyond shocked!But that is not the case at hand, all t
The attention of everyone is drawn to the young man making his way to Lucien and as their eyes land on him, their breaths catch!He is the same man that just spoke! But that's not the only reason they're shocked.When Lucien ordered Declan to go get Gasoline and matchsticks, they thought it was all an act but seeing it turning real is beyond shocking to them! Their mouths are shaped into an O shape.Declan is holding a ten-liter bottle filled to the brim with gasoline in his right hand and matchsticks in the other! It is now they are realizing that Lucien wasn't bluffing!And it is making them more terrified! If he can be ruthless enough to burn those men before their very eyes, doesn't that mean he would do what he said he would do to them?Judy and Elliot are tense. They are still stunned by how the tables turned."You arrived at the right time and didn't miss anything," Lucien responds to Declan, smiling up at him. "Place the matchsticks and gasoline on the floor.""Why don't I jus
"Yes, Lucien!" Declan grins. He feels so excited. Yes, Lucien is ruthless but it's not every time he shows his crazy part!He is so excited to the point that his hands are shaking. What a good show! He so loves this Lucien right now!"You won't dare do that to my men or Judy!" Before Declan can make a move, Elliot rises from the floor and roars at Declan.At the same time, two men in blue and black with security tags on their shirts walk up to Lucien. "Sir, we can't also let you do such a thing to these people. They are our prestigious customers so it's in our constitution to never stand by and watch harm come to them," One of them says respectfully.Lucien's face dims. When Juliet was subjected to the same treatment, these security guards did not stand up for her, but now that he is seeking vengeance for her, they have devised such a ridiculous constitution and trying to deter him with it.So many asslickers everywhere! He would never stand on celebration with such people!"The two o
"Hmph!" One of the security guards scoffs disdainfully. "What Mr. Wood? Is he a big shot that we don't know about? Hah! Why should we apologize to a pauper with a few martial arts moves? We would never stoop that low! Moreover, this isn't your problem! Get out!"Jack's veins throb as he clenches his teeth. "Anyone who offends Mr. Wood offends me! Mr. Wood's problems are my problems! Mr. Wood is someone I can't afford to provoke! Who then are you? I have no doubt that even your master can't afford to provoke him! Don't get me pissed off and do what I said!""Hahaha," chuckles the other security guard. "What nonsense! What has he fed you? Do you have any idea who our boss is? Even you, let alone him, cannot afford to provoke my boss! Hmph, Jack, don't come here and spout nonsense! It's disgusting!"We know you are strong but if you continue to stand in our way, we will deploy all of our fighters and go toe to toe with you! We would never do what you want. can you afford to force us? Our
"No, he didn't say that just now. He didn't just indirectly address him as master," Elliot is so shocked that his mouth shapes into an O as he babbles and his body begins to shake.He pinches himself to ensure that this is real, and only after experiencing pain does he believe. "Didn't Judy say he's a mere pauper? Didn't Judy say something like that? I didn't hallucinate that, did I? No, of course not. There must be a mistake somewhere. There has to be!"He rushes over to Jack, ruffles his hair, and clears his throat. "Hi, my name is Elliot Cole. I'm the successor of the Coles family. I...""So?" Jack abruptly cuts him off with a stern look on his face. He never likes it when people hurry over to him only to babble about who they are. It irritates him."Erm, Ja... I mean, Mr. Ville, don't you think you are making a mistake and standing on the wrong side? This Lucien Wood is a mere pauper with nothing to his name. "He always speaks vain words and claims to be what he isn't. You must b
"Lions don't eat at the same table as dogs, do they? Certainly not! I, Declan Flynn, would never let a dog do things with you, Lucien!" He turns furiously to the guard and raises his fist."No, please don't hit me! I was only carrying out my master's command! Please don't kill me. I have a wife and kids I look after. I am all they've got. Please don't harm me. If not for my sake for theirs. Please, I'm begging you," the security guard, terrified out of his wits, falls to his knees and cries out.Lucien sneers. "So now you have kids and a wife you look after? I remember you, you were the same guard who said 'what Mr. Wood?' Were you not arrogant just a few minutes ago?"Didn't you say you'd fight my friend with all of your men? Why would I spare you? Or do you think because you mentioned your wife and kids, I'll be so generous to the point of letting you go? You have to pay for your crime no matter what!""Please don't kill me! I can prove my innocence! I was only carrying out an order
"Someone I shouldn't have ever thought of going against? The last face I'll see? Hah! That's so funny," Lucien laughs. He turns to Declan and asks derisively. "People blow their trumpet a lot in this city, don't they?"Declan chuckles. "They are all rich dummies, what did you expect? I'm actually so sick and tired of them. Like, they never make any other statement. It's like they were all schooled to say the same thing over and over again. "But I'm not surprised though, most wealthy men are like that; they all think they can scare everyone with their wealth so they normally always blow their trumpet without knowing who they are talking to. But guess what? They will always bow down to you!""Hahaha, I love the last part," Lucien grins.The old man frowns. How can they be chastising him in his very presence without an ounce of fear? Do they know who he is?"Hmph!" He grits his teeth. "Ain't you two afraid of death? Or do you think I'm joking?!""Do we look like we care if you are joking
