Chapter 1330The handsome face was a few inches away. Kara looked at it, her heart pounding. She clenched her hands, pretending to be calm. She looked away and said, "I don't know what you're talking about."Eaton gazed at her quietly for a few seconds before he chuckled, "It seems the last incident has truly cast a shadow on you."When this was brought up, Kara turned slightly pale. She heard his voice again, "But I gave you the antidote, didn't I?""So what?"Kara suddenly turned her head, glared at him, and gritted her teeth. "I won't trust the one who has hurt me!"The two of them looked at each other for a long while. Eaton finally sighed, "Kara, I won't hurt you. Trust me one more time, okay?"Hearing his imploring tone, Kara showed signs of letting down her heavy guard. Seeing that she was unmoved, Eaton said with a wry smile, "If you are really worried, I'll just go in and wash down the hangover-prevention pills with water, and then I'll leave, okay?"I feel real
Chapter 1331Eaton stared at the bottle in his hand for a while, then looked up at her, smiled, and said calmly, "Nothing. I'm just thinking about one thing."Kara became serious. "What is it?""It is… I let the Child Insect out earlier, so it's useless to keep this empty bottle."Kara had no idea what he really wanted to do, so she could only stare at him vigilantly. "Do you think… I should throw it away?"Eaton approached her.Standing beside the wastebasket, she took a few more steps back, keeping her distance from him.Finally, she saw him throw the bottle into the wastebasket.When she was about to heave a sigh of relief, Eaton suddenly strode forward and held her wrist. Kara instantly became so terrified."What do you want to do?"She turned pale and widened her eyes, where there was only fear.Eaton leaned close to her and sighed softly, "Kara, my Child Insect has a place to lodge in, but my Mother Insect still needs a human container."'A human container?!' Kara
Chapter 1332Kara was forced to swallow the potion, her eyes full of despair.In this instant, she knew she was doomed. As soon as Eaton let go of her, she began scratching her throat desperately. "Blech!"She was trying to vomit the potion. Eaton didn't stop her, but stood up and threw the bottle into the wastebasket. Then he looked down at her, raised his brows, and said slowly, "Don't waste your energy. Once it enters your body, the Mother Insect will burrow into your veins to drink your blood and eat your flesh. You can't get it out through vomiting."Hearing that, Kara stopped scratching her throat. She cocked her head and glared at him with resentment. "Eaton Scott, have you no soul? You devil!"Eaton was neither annoyed nor angry. "Right, I am," he smiled. He squatted down, patted her cheek, and said in a half-coaxing and half-warning tone, "So you have to listen to me. I won't let you suffer too much."After that, he rose and left."Eaton Scott!"Kara roared t
Chapter 1333Molly felt numb in her earlobes, and her face also turned red. Subconsciously, she wanted to run. Seeing that, Sean immediately held her. "Why run?""You ask me why? Should I let you do whatever you want to do to me?"She grumbled coyly and glared at him. Seeing she was so thin-skinned, Sean chuckled, "You're already a mother of three children, but why do you become shy so easily? It seems you need more practice.""To become thick-skinned through practice?" Molly asked in reply.Sean laughed, "Are you accusing me?""I'm just telling the truth!"As she spoke, Molly poked his chest with her finger. "Go or not? If you don't, you'll stay alone at the hotel.""Okay, you're the boss."Helpless, Sean agreed. After plainly dressing up, the two went out. They would take the chance to tour a few scenic spots in Xesxia.At noon, Tony reserved a table at a very good restaurant. The two then ordered their food and took their time to eat. When they had almost finishe
Chapter 1334Sean didn't expect the other party to be so straightforward and was stunned.He then cocked his brows and said indifferently, "It's a surprise for Mr. Shepard to be straightforward."Selon then said calmly, "You're a smart man, Mr. Anderson. There's no need for me to beat around the bush and waste time."Sean nodded. "That may be the case, but... what makes you think I will agree with you? The Shepard family is at a disadvantage at the moment. All I need to do is to put in some effort and I'll be able to destroy the Shepard family."With that said, Sean picked up his coffee and drank casually.Selon had known that things wouldn't go very smoothly. Therefore, he immediately said, "I know that it's a piece of cake for Mr. Anderson to destroy the Shepard family. I even know that you're not even scared to face the Martial Art Union. Therefore, I came here today with a bargaining chip. I believe that you will be interested after hearing me out.""Oh?" Sean rubbed his han
Chapter 1335Sean didn't reply immediately.He had to admit that what Selon was offering was quite tempting.Before, he had promised Molly to help Mr. Ballard to look for his family. Sean was able to find some of the possible locations, but most of the people of the Ballard family were still not found.Therefore, his men didn't dare to make a move.What Sean didn't expect was that Selon would bring such good news.The bargaining chip might be good, but Sean somehow still felt something was wrong.He felt that Selon was being a little too honest.Selon had played all his cards at the beginning. Had he given up and didn't want to resist anymore or was there something else?Would a family that had helped the Martial Art Union for so long be so easily tamed?Even if Selon was willing, what about Mr. Shepard Sr.? Was he willing as well? With that thought in mind, Sean squinted his eyes as he glared at Selon with a sharp gaze.His gaze was dark and unpredictable. It was as if he c
Chapter 1336Sean snorted inwardly. 'They really know how to set me up!'Was the Martial Art Union overconfident or did they underestimate Sean?Sean felt that since they had already set the trap, it would be unkind of him not to jump into it.Sean's long fingers knocked on the table as he remained silent. He seemed to be thinking of something.Selon felt a little uneasy. He was scared that Sean wouldn't agree.A while later, Sean said slowly, "I'm aware. I'll send some men over tomorrow."As soon as Selon heard those words, he breathed a sigh of relief. "If possible, can you go in person, Mr. Anderson?"'Go in person?'Sean pretended not to agree. "Do I need to do such a small thing myself? Your sister isn't that important to me.""I know she's not that important to you, but we can't really order your men around either," said Selon.Sean fell silent again.He knew that his every move would be watched by the people of the Martial Art Union. If anything went wrong, then they
Chapter 1337Molly mumbled, "I'll still do it for your safety even if I don't have the heart. I'll force myself to do so."Sean smiled and pulled Molly into his arms. He then said with a gentle voice, "Don't worry. I'll definitely not do anything that would make you worry."On the other side, after Selon left, he headed to another cafe. He went straight upstairs to a private room.At that moment, there was a man waiting for him in the private room.When the man saw Selon enter, he put down the coffee cup in his hand and looked at him with a smile. "Mr. Shepard.""Mr. Erik, I've already done what you've asked."Selon walked over and placed the bug on the table. He then raised his head, looked at the man and asked, "When are you going to let my sister go?""You've done a good job," Erik complimented with a smile.He had heard everything that Selon and Sean talked about just moments ago. Selon had done everything they had asked.Selon breathed a sigh of relief inwardly. It seeme
