The Wolf’s Bride Chapter 169
Simon was put in a vegetative state, forever bed-bound. He could no longer wake up and could no longer speak a word. On both sides of his temples were little dots of blood, and when mixed with his sweat, no one could easily spot them. “Fall back,” Andrius said to Noir. The soldiers brought the bunch of international mercenaries back while Andrius returned to Dream’s Waterfront. For some reason, Luna removed the curfew and Andrius went in easily. When he stepped into the living hall, the little noises he made brought Luna out. She was still waiting for him. “Andrius…” The expression on her face shifted when she saw Andrius. “How’re things with the Hanshus?” “It’s done,” Andrius said calmly. “Really?” Luna widened her exhausted eyes, suspicious. “The Hanshus accepted your apology?” “You can say so,” Andrius said after some thought. After all, Simon did not hold him responsible for what he did since the man could not move or speak anymore, so he took it as an apology a

Anthony Henderson was a name that everyone in Sumeria was familiar with. Every move he made was amplified and placed under the spotlight. Therefore, his being at the hospital was news to the media. The news spread like wildfire. The richest man in Sumeria was going after Andrius and the Crestfalls! It was late, but the moon was shrouded behind dark clouds. Luna finally fell asleep after some turning and tossing, but she was soon woken up by her phone. It was her third uncle, Dick. “Luna, what the f*ck is wrong with that Andrius? Does he want us dead that much?” Dick was furious as he continued, “Can you get a hold of him? If he wants to die, just let him go. Don’t drag us down! If you can’t control him, tell him to go back to his cave in the mountains!” Luna was baffled, but she had a feeling something had gone wrong again. She asked timidly, “What happened?” “What happened?!” Dick scoffed. “The whole of Sumeria knows but not you?!” Before Luna could say a word, he

“Harry Crestfall?!” Anthony could not hold back his anger when he picked up the phone the second time. “Stop calling me! The Crestfalls are doomed no matter what you do! If you call me again, I don’t mind ending your family right away!” He then hung up the phone abruptly. Back in Luna’s office, after Anthony hung up on him, Harry looked dispirited as he collapsed on the chair. Luna had the same dispirited and pale expression on her face. It was over. Now that Anthony had made it clear, the Crestfalls could never make it out alive. The two of them fell into despair. If the CEO of the company lost all confidence, her employees and subordinates would feel worse. “I’m resigning right away!” “The Hendersons are coming for us! New Moon Corporation will be history soon.” “The death countdown is happening already!” “Run! At least, you can still save yourself now.” “I’m not staying here. You guys can be my guest.” The entire company was in turmoil. No one wanted to wor

Anthony reacted to Bruce’s advice with disdain. Someone that he could not mess with? The only people that the Hendersons could not mess with were the military governor and the Wolf King. Only they had the power to put the Hendersons into an unredeemable fire pit for eternity. A tiny New Moon Corporation and the Crestfalls were no threats to the Hendersons. How could they be fire to the Hendersons? Since they were unable to reach an agreement, Anthony hung up the phone and forgot about the Timberlands. The Hanshus were heavily crippled now, so they were no longer a threat to the Hendersons. Anthony did not take Bruce seriously because he wanted to focus on the Wolf King. Soon, Anthony invited almost all the local government officials to his place. The lowest position of the invited guests was a director and the highest was a minister. Of course, Anthony was not that influential enough to invite Mayor Freely. Mayor Freely was known to be an honest man, so Anthony’s weal

As long as there was a type that man favored, she could adapt to it. Suletta even learned how to flirt with a man from books, absorbing a total of 36 techniques to capture a man’s heart successfully, and she ought to put them to good use tomorrow. “If I can get the Wolf King’s attention, I will be the princess of the entire South County, the brightest star among the women!” With that, Suletta lowered her head shyly and tried to be as feminine as possible. The next day, the new military governor's inauguration ceremony was scheduled to be held in the city council’s central square. The square was beautifully decorated. There was a stage in the center, and in front of it were the seats for the VIPS. There were only three rows of VIP seats. The first row, which was the most unique, was prepared solely for the Wolf King. The second row was for the local government officials and the dignitaries, both separated by an aisle. The third row was for the rest of the officials and i

This time, the applause was countless times louder than before. It was so loud that it was deafening; it was endless that it sounded like waves. The applause took over the entire city council like a tornado. The Wolf King! Under the witness of tens of thousands of Sumerians, the Wolf King finally appeared. Thunk! The massive spotlight shone at the entrance, and it silenced the entire square instantly. The applause stopped tacitly in unison. A moment ago, the entire square was shaking because of the applause, but now, it was so quiet that one could hear a needle falling on the ground. Everyone looked at the entrance. They only had one thought in their minds—to see what the Wolf King looked like and how dominant he was. They forgot to blink. They forgot to breathe. They forgot about everything. Their eyes were glued to the entrance as they waited patiently, afraid to lose the slightest detail of the Wolf King’s entrance. Swoosh! A figure appeared under the s

The sky was bright, but everyone’s sights turned dark. The ground was peaceful and silent, but everyone’s hearts were trembling. Anthony, Suletta, and the others felt dizzy as their world was toppled over. Everything changed. Everything looked strange. Everything felt horrifying. Even with the sun shining in the sky, their vision turned dark as if the end of the world had arrived. The Wolf King that they had anticipated was Andrius, who they tried to kill or target. The Hendersons’ days were numbered. Anthony’s heart beat so fast that it almost burst out from his chest. He was drenched in his sweat, and his forehead was glistening. He was on the verge of breaking down. Suletta’s jaw dropped so low that she could swallow a lightbulb whole. Her body trembled while she was horrified. She was on the verge of collapsing as well. Andrius strode over to the first row of the VIP seats. Anthony sensed Andrius’ gaze from a closer distance. When he looked up, he noticed An

“Any price?” Andrius peered down at Anthony calmly, seeming emotionless. “Anthony Henderson, you are the richest man in Sumeria, so I’ll show you some respect.” He was about to deliver the ultimatum. Anthony looked up at Andrius, horrified, but was forced to accept it. Behind Anthony, Suletta was on her knees. Her hair was messed up and her face was pale, and when she heard the final ultimatum, she quivered as well. She felt inferior and despair after what happened. Her arrogance and pride were nowhere to be found. “What goes around, comes around,” Andrius said. “Anthony Henderson, you… should retire. Don’t make me do it for you, or else the Hendersons will be turned upside down.” Although Andrius spoke lightly, his words held immense weight. Those who heard him could not help but feel powerless because no one doubted his authority and power. The Hendersons, the richest family in Sumeria, were worshipped and chased after by many, yet their future was stripped away by a
