The incredibly powerful Sahara knocked over many people as she jostled and elbowed her way to the ancestral hall. When she arrived, she saw many people guarding outside of it, Connie and Salem's branch of the family were standing on one side as they looked on. "Stop! You guys aren't allowed to enter the ancestral hall!" At the sight of Sahara, who looked like a wild beast with her ferocious features and bloodshot eyes, Johnathan immediately gave her an injection, causing her to feel weak all over as she collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon within seconds. As the crowd split up, it allowed her to see Hilda, she was standing at the end of the crowd while paying her respects to the ancestral memorial tablets in the ancestral hall. The two gold medals that Sahara took pride in and should have been hidden away were displayed in the ancestral hall, they were placed together with the ancestral memorial tablets as proof of the meritorious deeds by a member of the Damien Family
"Give the gold medals back to me!" What happened the other night happened once again as Sahara single handedly knocked over a few police officers. She beat up each of the police officers, the Damiens, and the concerned onlooking citizens, knocking all of them to the ground. As a result, people were lying all over the ground in front of the door. Everyone was stunned. They wondered what f*cking kind of drug she was on, for she was so incredibly strong! Hilda, who had already left the scene, watched a live coverage of what was happening. "What an idiot." She said. She even has the audacity to buy drugs from the Hex. However, these drugs are really amazing! It is no wonder some countries and government officials have registered alternate accounts to purchase the drugs in batches. In the end, the inexhaustibly strong Sahara was finally sent back to her room and locked up, it was thanks to the collective effort of the police, the Damiens, and several concerned citizens. With that,
When she came to her senses, she found that Salem had stopped struggling and was rolling his eyes. When she subconsciously loosened her grip, Salem immediately collapsed and fell onto the floor. He no longer moved, he was very, very dead. He had passed away. Sahara's mind went completely blank as she stared blankly at Salem's dead body. She actually choked Salem to death. When the effects of the stimulant had subsided, Sahara felt a chill running down her spine, only then did she realize that she had brought serious trouble upon herself. She had killed someone! Flustered, Sahara immediately called Winnifred to ask the latter for advice. Winnifred was the first person she thought of at this moment. When Winnifred learned of Sahara's current situation, she let out a sneer and swore inwardly, What an idiot. "Your father is dead, whereas your mother is still lying comatose in the intensive care unit right now. Since you have poisoned your younger brother to death, you are the onl
At the Damien Family's ancestral home. Pinning Sahara to the ground, Johnathan pulled her by the hair and lifted her face, forcing her to look at Hilda. Hilda was standing in front of Sahara who looked like a useless slob while looking down at the latter. No one in the Damien Residence dared to utter a sound even when Sahara, their Young Lady... no, their master was pinned to the floor. Instead, they walked away tacitly. "Are you going to say it?" Hilda asked fiercely once again. Sahara clenched her teeth with all her might. "Don't you dare think I will." Winnifred's secret was her strongest card, so she would never disclose it to Hilda. Hilda looked at Sahara who was still stubbornly resisting with a sneer. Taking a box from Francis, she opened it to see that it was a box of ampules, and there were only nine ampules left. These were none other than the miraculous drug that was closest to Sahara's heart! Sahara's expression changed drastically. Hilda picked up an ampule and
Staring at her daughter, Connie advised in all sincerity and said, "I used to believe in neither supernatural beings nor the story about heaven and hell. I also had no idea what my bottom line was, for all I wanted was to expand my sphere of influence. Once I had money, power, and influence in my hands, I'd have the final say in the law. I never cared about my bottom line, but ever since you showed up in front of me with cuts and bruises all over your body..." Connie looked grieved as she spoke of this. One could still notice several tiny, irremovable scars on Hilda's face if one looked closely when she was bare faced. It was as if these scars were reminding Connie of the sufferings her daughter had experienced. "Hilda, one's bottom line can't be crossed until there is no other choice, unless there's something more valuable than your bottom line that needs your protection. Nobody knows if one will be punished for doing something against their conscience, but everything is predestine
When Elizabeth left, Jerome was still enraged. Meanwhile, when Arlo, who was in the study, learned that Connie was Connie Jordan, he was so impressed that he hastily did an online search to find out more information. However... "Dad, take a look at this!" At that moment, Jerome was still shocked at the fact that Connie was the Connie Jordan and that she was about to marry the Count. In a trance, he saw the tablet that was handed to him by Arlo. There was a young man on the screen. The photo was old and blurry but it was still vaguely visible, the man in the photograph was handsome and tall. In fact, his features were very similar to a young Jerome's! His name was Adrian Damien. He was Connie's late husband and their daughter was Hilda Adams. All at once, Jerome was thunderstruck. It took a while before he came back to his senses. "Dad, no wonder Connie always chokes up whenever she calls you 'Jerome'. It was because you look a lot like her husband!" Arlo was outraged. "Now I k
When they came home, Luna burst into tears as soon as she saw her father. Then, the same thing happened with her uncle when Adwoa came over. "Mister Handsome will definitely call you, don't worry!" Hilda promised. In the midst of her cries, Jerome finally called. Luna picked up and instantly stopped wailing. Sitting next to her, Hilda listened to the phone call and heard that it was indeed Jerome's voice coming from the other end. Not only that, even his tone was exactly the same. Meanwhile, Luna dried her tears and sobbed as he spoke on the phone. "Don't cry, Luna. I'll come and visit when I'm done with work. Have a good new year! Don't cry anymore, alright?" Jerome's voice was extremely gentle. Drying her tears, Luna blubbered, "Okay, come visit soon!" "Good girl. Wait for me." Jerome replied. After hanging up, Luna was still depressed. Even though she knew that Jerome left because of an emergency and that it wasn't because he didn't like her anymore, Luna still wept wheneve
At Smith City, Jerome and the rest had safely arrived from Taadi City after more than a forty hour bumpy ride. In fact, it had been some time since Jerome was away. Hence, he was swamped with work and could only get three or four hours of sleep every night. He would often overwork himself to the point where he would fall asleep instantly as soon as his head hit the pillow. He was afraid that his mind would wander endlessly if he had even a second of free time. Despite that, he hadn't been well rested since he returned because he kept having nightmares. "Mister Handsome, where did you go?" Luna's cries would echo in his ear from time to time and the dream would center around Connie's deep, yet emotionless gaze. "Jerome, Jerome..." "Ah!" Screaming, Jerome woke from his dream, only to realize he was still in his bedroom without Connie or Luna. When his hand reached up to touch his face, he realized he had been crying. What is going on? He was anxious all night and couldn't fal
