"Hey, did you hear that? It's Blake's choice!" Lucas said to Sean with an air of triumph.He was Blake's choice. She wouldn't choose some leech who hid behind women and talked big. Sean paid no attention to Lucas' provocation.He raised his head and stared deeply at Blake.His eyes had lost all ent
"She's ruthless!" Lindsay snarled as she watched Blake and Lucas leave. Immediately after, she shot a shocked expression in Sean's direction. "Then again, I didn't think you'd have such a relationship with her.""Quit making fun of me, Colonel Zinn." Sean chuckled wryly and shook his head.Lindsay
"Cecilia." Sean turned to gaze at Cecilia with a hint of guilt. "Are you okay, Sean?" Cecilia frowned, ceiling concerned for him. She knew he valued his relationships dearly. What happened earlier had likely affected him deeply."I'm fine." Sean shook his head. The guilt in his eyes grew as he gaze
Those were Sean's innermost thoughts. He expressed everything he wanted to Cecilia without concealing anything.The misunderstanding from seven years ago wasn't actually a misunderstanding. Hence, Sean saw no point in pining after Blake anymore."Thank you for telling all this, Sean," Cecilia said.
The fearsome group stopped outside the hotel entrance. Each soldier was armed with a weapon and had a stern gaze. Standing before the group was Lucas, who had both hands behind his back. He cocked a brow tauntingly at Sean, who stood at the top of the stairs. His lips curved into a smirk, revealin
"What did you say?" Lucas' pupils constricted as rage surged through him.Sean didn't answer Lucas. Instead, his gaze intensified and darkened with more hostility toward the latter. He was determined to settle the score for all their feuds."You must have a death wish, huh?" Lucas bellowed. His eye
"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

"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
