Rex thought it was really worth it firing that shot too. Seeing the leader of Hex reminded him of the row of new tombstones belonging to the military. If it weren't for the last shred of rationality that still hung on to him, he really would have killed Hex's leader on the spot. Now, he was absolutely certain that the shot he fired would leave Hex's leader infertile for his entire life, exactly like what he intended.Hilda was rushed to the hospital immediately. When they reached, Nathan stood motionlessly outside the operating room, not moving a muscle as he waited there.Droplets of blood dotted his black trench coat. All of those were Hilda's blood. She looked like a broken and seriously damaged ragdoll lying down beside him just now. As he watched her, he wanted to hug her, but when he held out his arms, he retracted them again, worried that his rough hands might accidentally hurt her.From the video, even though Mrs. Adams sharp blade didn't directly touch her body, it could stil
While working on the matter, Nathan would raise his head once in a while to glance at Hilda on the bed. She was still being treated with intravenous infusion, her face as white as a sheet. The traces of blood on her hair had dried out and hardened. Having both of her eyes shut tightly, her brows were heavily furrowed, making her seem to be really uncomfortable even in her sleep.Gazing at her pale and delicate face, Nathan suddenly felt like all his tiredness had disappeared completely. He felt very content just by gazing at her like that.Back then, when he first set eyes on Hilda, he thought she looked very familiar, as though he had seen her before somewhere. He chose her not just because he wanted to help her sought out her vengeance, but because he liked her too.In the morning, the door of the ward sprung open and a figure dashed into the room, giving those in the room the illusion of a gust of wind that had blown past them. The figure first took a look at Hilda on the bed.Nath
Nathan looked calm and unflustered when he mentioned the drug addict. He didn't feel a least bit sorry for the loss of a human life at all. To him, it wasn't worth spending 1,000,000 to buy a lowlife like the drug addict! However, he had ran out of time back then. It wasn't easy finding a person with the same build and face as him in such a short time. Since the drug addict had volunteered himself Nathan reluctantly agreed to his request.He was already a worthless scumbag when he was still alive. Besides hitting his wife and kids every day, the only thing he did was to steal money from the house, go out and get high on drugs. His wife had to take up three different jobs at the same time to raise their children. Yet, he stole his children's tuition fee too. In the end, he spent all the money on drugs. He was willing to die if his death could bring some benefits for his family.Hilda didn't ask Nathan about this anymore.The couple became silent for a while after the question. Nathan f
"What?" Johnathan goggled at him in shock.Hilda's mother was actually still alive?Nathan explained calmly, "I sent some men over to investigate my mother in law's life before she died, thinking that we'd be able to find some clues about who she was. I noticed that she was very close with a nurse in the hospital where she stayed while waiting to deliver her baby before she died. But her death seemed to have been faked."Even Nathan didn't know where exactly she was at this moment.Johnathan stopped what he was doing too."Have you told Hilda?""No, I haven't. I want to wait until I find her first before I tell her. "After busying himself the entire day and night, Nathan went back to his room to take a nap. He still needed to visit Hilda at the hospital in the afternoon.Johnathan volunteered himself bravely to accept the mission of finding Hilda's mom.Nathan woke up in the afternoon after a refreshing nap. After settling several other matters, he went out again and headed toward th
On the way, Kyle said suddenly, "Teddy, the man you guys suspected to be married to Hilda's mom before this, has a mining business in Africa. It seems like his castle is not very far away from here. He's the uncrowned king of Africa. Perhaps we should pay him a visit?"Putting down the sales record in his hands, Nathan raised his eyebrow. Indeed, they should pay him a visit.Besides, he wanted to investigate the Teddy Jordan Family too.The Jordan Family was an ancient and mysterious family residing in Eastern Europe. They had been established over several hundred years ago, and Nathan had heard of them when he was younger. There was a time where he even thought that they were the legendary vampires described in fictions.The Jordan Group was involved in various businesses such as electronics, mining, crude oil and so on. They were very influential in Africa, controlling numerous large metal mining factories in the country.The family was like a de facto emperor in Africa as they esta
After the three exchanged brief greetings, they sat down."It's a pity that our schedules aren't aligned. My father went back to his hometown to settle some family business, and I think he will only be back after three months. If both of you are still here by then, my father will definitely visit you in person."The Jordan Family was the oldest family in Eastern Europe. They were also an influential and noble family as well. One could see the unusual level of sophistication and education it offered to its family members from the way Linux presented himself. Linux was a humble, courteous and charming gentleman.Nathan smiled and said, "It's a bit too much visiting us in person himself. I'm sure there'll be other opportunities for us to meet in the future if we can't make it this time."He glanced around the surrounding casually without drawing too much attention to himself. The spacious living room looked really grand and sophisticated with exquisite paintings gracing the walls. The be
When night came, Nathan returned to his hotel after a day's work. To their surprise, they saw someone standing in an empty spot in the gardens at the back of the hotel.That person had a full length mirror placed under a street lamp and was rehearsing some kind of lines and and actions. Looking closely, Nathan noticed it was Juliana Hawkins. The lady Hilda had paid to sleep with Daniel after which Nathan gave her a deal in his entertainment group. She was filming in Africa and it just turned out that the film crew were all staying in the same hotel as Nathan. It was night so Nathan knew she was on break and she would have very little time to rest, but Juliana was still using whatever limited break time she had to practice her craft. It was something to commend, and it was fortunate that such a hard working actress was cast for the lead role.Seeing that Nathan had returned, Juliana walked up to him, "Mr. Clemon, someone was looking for you in the hotel lobby." She already knew she wa
This container of soup was practically an opportunity that had fallen from the heavens!Diana brought the soup back to her room. An aromatic scent wafted from the container when she opened it. Indeed, the container was filled with delicious smelling chicken soup. She was so hungry that she was drooling, but she still tamped down on that voracious desire of hers.She quickly blow dried her hair and carefully put her makeup on before taking a nice selfie of herself while holding the container of soup, making sure that her face and the soup were clearly shown in the photo. She then used a photo editing app to airbrush her blemishes and edited the photo. After half an hour of editing, she even managed to nearly remove all traces of texture on the chunks of chicken floating in the soup. With that, she uploaded the heavily edited photo onto her Twitter and Instagram stories.As she sipped on the soup, she typed out a caption. 'Thank you so much for the chicken soup, Mr. Clemon. Everyone, pl
