"Tina, Wayne, why are you two so excited?" Patricia looked at them with a puzzled expression on her face."How could we not be, Mom? Don't you know that Ms. Sutton decided to announce the candidates early after she realized that Wayne and I were being questioned?"Tina clenched her fists. Her heart
The whole room fell silent. Everyone had sensed the hint of mockery in Blake's voice just now. It seemed like Blake had been toying with Wayne.The audience wondered why the name "Sean Lakeworth" sounded familiar.When it finally clicked, they remembered that he was the person who had caused a scen
"Blacklist us?"Tina's heart dropped. Eyes wide, she looked at Blake in disbelief. "Ms. Sutton, a-are you really not joking?""Do I look like I'm joking?" Blake's cold gaze met Tina's. The wrinkle between her eyebrows revealed the contempt she had for the latter.Tina's body shook as her face instan
Blake's cold gaze was fixed on Tina. "You refuse?""That's right, I refuse!" Tina protested. "I haven't done anything wrong. Why should I have to go through this?"Wayne was petrified as he told Tina to be quiet. "Do you know who you're talking to? Shut up!""Why should I shut up?" Tina was annoyed.
"I exposed you?" Sean frowned as he looked at Tina. "Tina, will you stop being so self-righteous?"Tina glared at Sean resentfully. "Self-righteous? If you hadn't run to Ms. Sutton and badmouthed me, how would she know all this?""I investigated it myself." Blake's cold voice interrupted Tina.Tina'
"What's the deal with this guy and Ms. Sutton? Could he be her lover?" The crowd speculated, their minds racing with curiosity."No way!" They quickly dismissed the absurd idea. Blake wasn't someone who would have an affair with just anyone. Besides, Blake was known for her icy demeanor."But if no
As Lucas walked slowly toward the entrance of the banquet hall, Blake's expression changed."Who are you?" Sean frowned, eyeing Lucas with an unexpected wave of hostility."I'm Lucas Xenos, Deputy General of the Ace Military Region and Blake's fiancé." Lucas introduced himself with a hint of provoca
Blake was stunned by Sean's firm words. She had never imagined that Sean would talk like that in front of her.He was still as foolish and stubborn as he had been seven years ago.That was why she had decided to deceive him. She didn't want Sean to risk his life for her.Sean's words instantly trigg
"Quickly, hold your breaths and hide your presence!" Amelia instructed in a low voice.Everyone suppressed their breaths and hid in the bushes.In the sky, a swoosh echoed, and tracking waves radiated through the air. Upon failing to detect the presence of any vital energy, they quickly left.After
"What? Did you say that Grandma and the others are here?" Selene's heart skipped a beat."Yes! Hide yourself!" Sean said urgently.Suddenly, they heard a swoosh, and before they could move a muscle, the sounds of wind breaking resounded in the forest. The strongest presence amongst them had already
"First time?" Startled, Sean then realized what she was speaking about and chuckled awkwardly. "Yeah, it was. What's the matter?""That explains it." Selene had a confident look on her face, as if she were now sure of something. "What do you mean?" Sean asked, puzzled."That explains why there's su
"Would you like to expose Zephyr's scheme?" Sean asked in a deep voice when he saw the iciness in Selene's eyes."Yes." Selene nodded. The disgust she held for Zephyr was undisguised in her tone."The Ten Great Families are still in the dark; even if both of us combine forces, we're far from being Z
"Selene, I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I couldn't control myself." Upon hearing Selene's low mumbling, Sean felt the numbness in his scalp intensify.Even though he had been forced to take action in this incident, he took the initiative to claim the responsibility. After all, Selene was at
Selene moaned softly, gradually waking up.Sean took in a sharp breath and felt his scalp turning numb. This was bad! He hurriedly got up, wanting to clear up the scene.However, when he looked at the clothes strewn across the floor, he knew that it was too late to dress Selene and cover her body.
Sean's body tensed, his mind resonating with a thunderous roar.Before he could react, Selene's soft lips pressed firmly against his. Her tongue, sweet yet tentative, explored his mouth.In an instant, heat ignited within Sean like a wildfire. Unable to restrain himself any longer, he swiftly pushed
"Selene, what are you doing?"Sean's heart skipped a beat as Selene suddenly embraced him from behind, resting her head against his chest.He sensed that if this continued, it could lead to serious trouble.At that moment, Selene's breath hitched.The sensation of Sean's body pressed against hers, a
Sean's eyes widened in shock. He had never expected Selene to kiss him so passionately!Her lips were remarkably soft, and her tongue moved with nimble grace, despite her lack of experience. Fueled by the ambergris, her kiss was intense and fiery.At that moment, Sean felt as if he were about to mel
