"Just say what you have to say!" Cassandra said, already impatient.

Bill took his wife's hand and said, "Before I met you, I was a soldier, Cassie. I worked in the palace, but ...."

"But what?" Cassandra asked with bated breath.

"I resigned over 3 years ago and on my way home I was attacked until I almost died," Bill said.

Cassandra stared in shock, "Attacked how, Bill? Who attacked you?"

The beautiful woman's lips seemed to tremble as she said it and it made Bill become more careful.

"I don't know, Cassie. That's when I was rescued by Grandma Minerva and ended up marrying you," Bill explained.

Cassandra was still a little confused, "How did she save you?"

Bill couldn't possibly say he was dumped in the suburbs because that would complicate things even more. So, he chose to say, "Grandma found me dying on the road. She healed me."

Cassandra was silent for a moment, "So, you're really marrying me because of that? As a favour to Grandma?"

Bill nodded without hesitation.

    Cassandra became even more suspicious of her husband but she refrained from asking. The beautiful woman even handed her husband a glass of water. "Thank you, Cassie!" Bill said quickly. He hurriedly downed the water and when he put the glass on the table, he still saw his wife staring at him unblinkingly. "What are you thinking about?" Bill asked after wiping his mouth with a tissue. Cassandra made a gesture as if she wasn't thinking anything nor did she force her husband to speak. Bill was even more confused and thought that maybe his wife had found out that he had more than just one company. However, when he saw her questioning gaze, he quickly dismissed the thought from his mind. "I ... haven't thought about building a company but if you want to, I can build one for you," Bill said and he chose the safest way. Cassandra was wide-eyed when she heard her husband's words, "You ... are you that rich to easily build a company?" Bill quickly shook his head, "No, Cassie. It's jus

    Bill was still trying to be patient, "Oh, the urn. If you didn't do it on purpose, of course it doesn't matter, but if you did it on purpose, of course I'll sue for compensation." Hearing Bill's answer which was said so calmly also made Shirley annoyed, "You want to sue your own sister-in-law?" "Shirley!" Cassandra said and she was completely ignored by her biological sister. Bill shrugged, "I don't care if it's my sister-in-law or not but if someone tries to interfere with mine then I won't stay silent." Shirley only exhaled harshly and then she saw her brother as well as her grandfather and also her husband who looked so enthusiastic about entering the house headed there. Cassandra quickly greeted her family, "Grandpa, George, Peter. Welcome to our house." Christopher Wood frowned at that sentence, "Your home? Isn't it a bit much when you call a rental property your own?" Cassandra immediately glanced at her husband who still looked so relaxed even though she heard her own gra

    "Something like that," Bill said. The three members of Cassandra's family froze in their places, while Peter calmly said, "Oh, it's fitting that you were able to get the gold disc. Well done, Brother-in-Law!" Peter did not hide his admiration for Bill and now he was feeling his past bad behaviour towards Bill. However, Peter was not someone who apologized easily so he didn't say a word. Bill turned to his wife who was silent and this made him very uneasy. "Grand, George, Shirley and Peter, please come to the dining room as your servants have prepared food for you," Bill said. Peter replied, "Oh, I wonder what the servants of such a luxurious house are serving." Peter then forced his wife to walk with him to the dining room, leaving George and Christopher behind wordlessly. However, it wasn't long before the two men caught up with Peter and Shirley. "Wow! This is absolutely marvellous! I've never seen such a luxurious dining table," Peter said admiringly while occasionally touc

  • The Strongest God of War   59. With What?

    With great difficulty Bill finally replied, "Yes, Cassie. I promise I won't do anything out of line." Cassandra gave a small nod. She had known her husband for more than three years but she still didn't know anything about him other than what he showed her. All this time she had never asked her husband any questions or sought information about him directly. Perhaps this was also because she always felt disappointed and resentful of Bill who she could never rely on. For her, the old Bill was just a useless husband who could only trouble her. All of her expenses were covered and the money Bill made from looking after the fruit stall was only enough to provide them with a few things. However, who would have thought that the man would have changed so drastically. Apart from leaving home and returning with a number of surprises that amazed her, Bill also seemed to have changed completely in terms of behaviour. Bill used to never reply or correct all the bad words about him that came fr

    Peter, who had heard Christopher's plan, sneered but did not respond with any words. Meanwhile, his wife Shirley seemed satisfied that her grandfather was going to do something about his arrogant brother-in-law. "Grandpa, I'm sure he has too many enemies over there," Shirley said. Christopher responded, "And it's your brother's job to find out who Bill's enemies are so we can use them to our advantage." Oh, Shirley really liked her grandfather's plan. She was really fed up with her brother-in-law who had ruined her marriage with Peter. If only he hadn't given her the gift of the gold disc that Peter loved so much back then, then her married life with Peter would still be harmonious. However, Bill had ruined everything and now her marriage was on the verge of collapse. It could be said that Peter never cared about him at all and only cared about his own affairs. "Don't worry, Gramps! I'll definitely find out who we can work with to destroy Bill!" George said. "That's right, Gr

    "My favour?" Bryan askded questioningly. "Yes. It's about my brother-in-law," George replied. Bryan was even more confused, "Hey, is this a domestic issue? I can't help you. Why don't you call a marriage counsellor?" George immediately shook his head firmly, "Oh, no. You've got it all wrong. It's not a domestic matter like you mean." "So what?" Bryan's right eyebrow shot up, looking rather astonished. Their conversation was momentarily interrupted when the waiter arrived with their order. Bryan smiled happily, "Oh, you still remember my favourite food and drink." "Of course, Bryan. We weren't friends for long, I still remember." Bryan nodded happily and when the waiter left their area, George quickly resumed their conversation. "Do you remember what I asked you at my sister's wedding? About the great General Mackenzie's gold disc?" Bryan took a few sips of his capucino before replying, "Yes, why, is it related?" "Yes, Bryan. I asked you because it was my brother-in-law who

    George smiled mysteriously in response to his friend's remark. "Come here, I have a good plan." Bryan approached George and the tall, well-built and handsome man whispered something to Bryan. As soon as he heard George's plan, Bryan frowned. But a moment later he smiled too, raised his glass and seemed to invite his friend to make a toast. "To our success." "Of course, we will," George said with confidence. On the other hand, Bill had already intended to return to the palace soon and was now packing up some of his belongings. Cassandra, who was just watching, asked, "When are you coming back here?" "It won't be long," Bill replied. "How many days does the palace staff have for holiday?" Bill immediately stopped what he was doing and turned to his wife, "I don't know, but I think I can apply for a holiday if I complete one task." Cassandra raised her right eyebrow, "Don't do that! You have to work really hard so that your job can stay with you." Bill quickly sat beside hi

    The man who was being questioned by Bill laughed even more, making Bill unable to restrain himself. Bill hit the man again but now with full force. His teeth were knocked out and Bill didn't care, he pulled his neck again even though the man's mouth was full of blood. "If that bomb goes off and kills innocent people, I swear I'll look for you even in the grave!" Bill threatened and he took the time to kick the man's stomach mercilessly. Bill closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down. "Pull yourself together, Bill! Let's think!" He tapped his finger on the windscreen. "Let's think one more time! Where do you think your enemy has placed the bomb?" He glanced at his watch and realized he was running out of time. He had only two minutes and thirty-six seconds left. He also glanced at Andrew Reece's unconscious body and it was clear that waking up the trusted bodyguard would be a waste of time. "Come on, BIll! Think it more! You were once an invincible War General. How could

We won?

    Xylan immediately realized that his father wouldn't just let him go.He knew that Keannu Wellington wasn't in the best of shape, but his father was still thinking things through carefully.Therefore, Xylan who had never lied and would never want to lie, especially to his father replied, "Yes, Father. He is not a palace staff who has been in the palace for a long time. In fact, he doesn't even have any relationships with other palace officials."Keannu instantly fell silent.Xylan quickly composed words and continued, "But ... I can guarantee that he will do his duty well. You will see that my choice will not be wrong."Keannu let out a long breath.Xylan was beginning to worry.And after a long silence, Keannu finally looked back at his son and said, "Alright."Keannu's one-word statement confused Xylan so he asked again, "Alroght?

I believe you're capable of leading this country."Xylan lifted his head and looked at his father's pale face that looked so very weak.Xyan instantly wanted to curse himself. How could he think so weakly? He may be young, but he was not ignorant. Over the years he had learned various things, including about the government system. His father had also taught him about many things to prepare him as his successor.Then, after all that had happened, how could he be hesitant like that?Moreover, his father's condition no longer allowed him to rule the country.

    James didn't have to wait long to connect with Josh Cleve.Once connected, before James could speak, he heard Josh say, "I've got it, General Gardner."James didn't have time to reply, but Josh was already speaking quickly, "Thank you, General Gardner. This is all because of you.""If it wasn't for your strategy, I wouldn't have been able to conquer the sea area," Josh continued, sounding like someone who was holding back tears.He didn't even dare to look directly through the screen at James.James smiled at Josh and chuckled, "Gosh, are you going to cry?"Josh snorted but everyone could see that Josh was really very moved. All the soldiers of Ans De Lou Kingdom had known all the efforts that Josh Cleve had made to improve his sea warrior skills. However, he had not been successful.However, after James Gardner became his leader, he was able to bring victory to the Ans De Lou Kingdom.With so much gratitude Josh said again, "It's all thanks to you, General."James instantly shook hi

    A class two soldier of James' age replied, "Maybe he was practicing during his long break."Ben shook his head, "I'm not sure.""You mean, Senior Ben?" Jason Hoult asked with a facial expression full of confusion.Ben smiled faintly.Without turning his head towards Jason, the man who had long been a first-class soldier replied, "There's no time for that. He's very busy managing his business.""What business, Senior Ben?" Jason asked back, looking both surprised and curious. Ben almost tapped his forehead from talking too much."Uh, what are we doing? Isn't it time to help him? Come on, Jason. Get back to your position!" Ben ordered.Jason was forced to move away from the area in disappointment. Uh, he was really very curious about the story of James Gardner.He used to feud with the young man who always had a cold impression, but he could finally understand James' attitude.James always had an annoying expression on his face, but the young man wasn't actually an annoying man.

Do you think that by capturing us, you think your army will win over our army?"Kurt laughed dismissively. "In case you forgot ... I'll remind you, we ... have an important person from your kingdom.""That's right, your war general is in our hands. What can you do with your new war general? What can he do?" a soldier sitting beside Kurt said in an annoying tone.Kurt flashed his mocking smile again to irritate Justin.Justin raised his right eyebrow and immediately realized that there was no way he could get what he wanted from the enemy soldiers. The young man sighed softly. He felt that talking to the enemy soldiers was pointless so he simply replied, "Well, since you can only belittle us, it would be much better if we didn't hear your voice."Kurt frowned, looking somewhat confused.However, it wasn't long before he heard Justin command, "Shut them all up!

It looks like General Gardner is confused.""What? Why is he confused? Does that mean he's going to ... retreat?"A class two soldier who heard those words instantly turned to the class three soldier as he raised his visor, "What did you just say, huh? You think General Gardner is a coward?""No-no ... so, Senior. But ... why didn't he act immediately? We're already in enemy territory," the soldier replied, who initially seemed to doubt his general stammeringly.The class two soldier who defended James replied, "Perhaps General Gardner is adjusting himself.

    Upon hearing the words of Xylan Wellington, who was the crown prince of Ans De Lou Kingdom, Gary Davis could only stare with a dumbfounded expression at the person he had served for two years."Why?" Xylan said again as he caught Gary's expression which he found strange in his eyes.His forehead wrinkled in confusion, "Do you ... not like it, Gary?"Gary winked then quickly shook his head, "Of course I do, Your Highness.
