Sean had a heavy heart. Sometimes he wanted to believe that the Lakeworths' tragic fate had been orchestrated by the Hermit Sect.It would be easier to accept that than to acknowledge the darkness that could lurk within a nation—to acknowledge that even the leader of a nation can be ruthless.An en
Blake frowned. Her intuition told her that these two were definitely hiding something from her.However, she could rule out the possibility that Sean had mistreated Melania the night before. Melania wouldn't have been so eager to explain herself if that had been the case.Since Cecilia and Lindsay w
"Well... Actually, I gave Ms. Streep a massage last night," Sean admitted.Blake raised an eyebrow. "A massage?"Melania's eyes widened. They couldn't avoid talking about what had happened."Yeah, just a body massage," Sean said. "Last night, Ms. Streep and I couldn't sleep, so we talked for a while
Sean blinked in surprise. Did Blake still have something to ask him?"Sean, do you have feelings for Melania?" Blake got right to the point."Feelings for Melania?" Sean almost choked on those words, his eyes widening as he looked at Blake. Then, he shook his head with a wry smile. "Blake, you've m
Sean opened the message."Sean, thanks for covering for me with Ms. Sutton earlier. I'm really sorry about that. Um... Ms. Sutton didn't give you a hard time, did she? I saw her asking you to stay back just now.""No, Blake didn't give me a hard time. She just wanted to make sure I wasn't bullying y
It was 5:00 pm in the evening.The ninth floor of the Nonagon Council's Azure Tower was a sight to behold.The entire tower was aglow with the luster of pearls and jewels. The rosewood showcases around the room contained a collection of rare and exotic treasures.It was Felipe's private collection,
Their eyes met. Sean looked calm, but there was a flash of ferocity on Lucas' face. He thought about what had happened at the wedding half a month ago. Sean had embarrassed Lucas in front of all the guests! He thought about the two weeks that he had spent confined to bed, unable to move. Rage flar
"You—" Lucas clenched his teeth, looking angry. However, he suddenly thought of something and smiled contemptuously. "I get it. You're just jealous of me, right? You're jealous of the connections I have, while you have nothing. You're just a nobody who's slaving away in this city!""Me? Jealous of
"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
