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
Back at New Moon Corporation, Luna called Andrius right away and asked him to come in immediately. A while later, Andrius entered. “Andrius…” Luna stared at him with her beautiful eyes, attempting to see through his thoughts. “What do you know about the Hendersons? You told me that Anthony Henderson won’t be hopping around for long, and now he’s been reckoned with by the Wolf King at the inauguration ceremony. Even the Hanshus were expelled by the Wolf King. Do you…” Luna added a hint of prying in her tone and asked, “know the new military governor or the Wolf King?” Andrius had an extra glance at her when he heard her question. It was rare for the woman to react this smartly. She was able to extend her thoughts further now, but it was a secret that he could not tell. Andrius avoided the topic and simply said, “The Wolf King dealt with them because they pissed him off.” “They pissed the Wolf King off?” Luna failed to understand and voiced her concerns right away, “The Hen
Luna was immune to his frivolous attitude, so she simply sent him on his way. “You can go back now.” Andrius returned to Team Five’s office. “Boss, do you know about the Wolf King?” Fatty Frank ran over to him when he came back. His eyes gleamed. “Mm-hmm.” Andrius nodded. “The Wolf King is freaking awesome!” Fatty Frank looked impressed. “If I can meet him in person, I would clean his shoes and I’d still be happy!” “The Wolf King is amazing! I heard that he showed up frightened the Hendersons and the young ones to the core. They all collapsed on the ground,” Angel said with infatuation as she put her hands together. “If I can meet him, I would bear his babies.” “Hmph! There are a ton of women who want to bear the Wolf King’s babies. Get in line!” “Yeah! Stop dreaming!” The other scoffed at her. Andrius simply laughed it off. He then said, “If you guys have the time to think about this, why don’t you guys think about how to help the company secure the idle resources le
Rising Dragon Hotel was another lavishing five-star hotel located in the center of the city. However, the entire hotel was bought out by someone, and there were armed guards on duty at the entrance. When Solomon tried to enter, he was stopped by the security guards. “What are you doing here?” One glance from the security guard gave Solomon the chills because the security guard looked fierce. Solomon immediately said, “I am Solomon Stormbrew. Young Master Crestfall wants to see me.” The security guard spoke into the walkie-talkie. After he got orders from the higher-ups, he cleared Solomon for entry. “Go in.” Solomon went into the hotel. A few steps later, another security guard came over. “Solomon Stormbrew? Come with me.” Solomon followed the security guard into the elevator without saying a word. A while later, they arrived at the highest floor. There were only two people there. One was a girl in slovenly clothes, and the other was the Young Master Crestfall t
Unfortunately, he was late and when he arrived, the ceremony was already over. He did not get the chance to see the Wolf King. On top of that, he contacted his insider for news on the Wolf King, and in order to authenticate the news he got, he even contacted multiple parties. He got the same answer from everyone: the Wolf King had left Sumeria. Therefore, he was certain that Andrius was not the Wolf King. Unbeknownst to Cain, when the ceremony was over, Marcus informed everyone not to leak news about the Wolf King. The Wolf King’s authoritative dominance was branded in everyone’s mind, so no one dared to defy Marcus’ order. Everyone kept their mouths sealed. “T-then, Young Master Crestfall, what are we going to do?” Solomon asked. Cain glared at him and said coldly, “I will deal with the Crestfalls in Sumeria myself. Capture Luna first. I want to show them I mean business.” Back at New Moon Corporation, it was time to clock out. Andrius walked out of the office after cloc
