"That's right," said Liam. He then sighed solemnly and said, "I did find it odd back then. When I asked Simon if he had received any threats, he replied with an indifferent 'no' and hung up the phone."Afterward, disaster befell the Lakeworths like clockwork on the fifth night. That night, the Lake
Blake approached Sean with a concerned look as Liam left. "Sean, my dad didn't give you a hard time, did he?""No, not at all," Sean replied with a gentle smile, reassuring the worried Blake in front of him. "Mr. Sutton just asked me to take good care of you. He expressed his regret for not being t
"I'll deal with the Xenoses and the Lakeworths first, and then..." Sean's expression was serious as he paused."And then what?"Sean looked at Blake as if he wanted her opinion. "Then, maybe bring Cecilia to Ace City, or we could settle in Skye City?" "Why are you looking at me?" Blake frowned. "Di
"You're coming too?" Sean was visibly surprised.It was unlike Blake to suggest such a thing, as she rarely attended public events outside of important functions.Blake raised her eyebrows as she stared at Sean. "Why? Aren't you going to introduce me to your friends?""Well, you've already met Colon
Lindsay felt a cloud of gloom hanging over her. Even Layla noticed her mood and whispered, "Linnie, are you feeling alright?""No. It's probably just that time of the month." Lindsay brushed it off with a casual excuse."Do you want to go back and rest?" Layla asked worriedly.She knew that women o
The man in the suit glared menacingly at the waitress.His henchmen all wore equally hostile expressions."You bitch! Do you know how much that suit costs?""I'm sorry..." The waitress apologized repeatedly. Her voice trembled with fear."Sorry? Is that all you have to say?" the man sneered cruelly.
The man noticed Sean and glared at him with hostility. "Punk, do you know her?""Yeah." Sean nodded.Tina's heart skipped a beat. She hadn't expected Sean to admit that he knew her."What's your relationship with her?""Just friends."Tina's heart sank at Sean's words."Just ordinary friends?" The m
The man furrowed his brows. "You know Mr. Xenos?""Know him? Of course, I do," Sean replied with a grin."Then, hurry up and pay!" the man demanded sternly. "If you don't have the money, then get lost and stop wasting my time!"He thought Sean's earlier words were an attempt to gain his favor. After
"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
