Under Annabelle’s nervous, watchful eyes, the man in front of her turned around, revealing his relatively sallow face. When she saw the face, her initially anticipatory mood vanished and in its place was dejection. She had mistaken the man before her as Zayn. Even if he did look very similar to Zayn from behind, the man was actually a stranger. “Miss, is there anything that I can help you with?” said Zayn. He had not only changed his face but also his voice. Other than his body shape, he was already a totally different person in every other way. The ability to change one’s face and voice was fatfetched for normal people, and it was very difficult for one to change completely even by utilizing modern technology. However, it was as easy as breathing for someone at Zayn’s level. He had changed his facial features so completely that his own wife, let alone Annabelle, might not have been able to recognize him if he was standing before her. Annabelle’s initially delighted and a
Over at the other side, Zayn did not leave immediately, but he fixed his attention on Annabelle. He heard the conversation between her and the assistant. Seeing the way she was acting, it was clear that Annabelle’s career was not doing so well. It was as if she was in some kind of trouble. Zayn did not plan to get involved, but he and Annabelle were still friends regardless. If his friend was in trouble, he could not simply stand around and do nothing.Thus, he decided to wait longer and keep an eye on Annabelle in case she was in trouble.It did not take long before Rose received a call. She appeared to be pleasantly surprised and nudged at Annabelle while she said, “Perk up, will you? Mr. Donough is here. Show your good side so you can win him over!”Annabelle was still feeling slightly dejected, but she forced a smile instinctively even as her heart sank. It was as if she was already used to being manipulated by life and had grown accustomed to obeying and accommodating others.
Zayn had no choice but to acknowledge that Mr. Donough did appear very imposing indeed. He was not old, yet he exuded an extraordinary quality and was truly handsome. Most importantly, he looked masculine, unlike those feminine, weak boys out there. Many young men these days spent their days in bars and clubs all year long and wasted their health away despite their young age, which made them appear especially frail. On the other hand, Mr. Donough did not look like that, which was rare for a man of his age. “Huh…”Zayn raised an eyebrow. The sight of Mr. Donough had caught his attention!He had not planned on paying attention to the man. After all, no matter how successful this man’s business empire was, he was still a weakling in Zayn’s eyes. Zayn was the ferocious man who managed to kill Murica’s most powerful man, so he would not take any heir to a business empire seriously. Still, he was drawn to Mr. Donough’s presence. Beyond his masculine appearance, Mr. Donoigh was
Though it quickly vanished, there was anxiety and dread in Annabelle’s eyes when she saw Mr. Donough. Given her current situation, this was her only option. It was a task assigned to her by her company. If she failed to please Mr. Donough and ruin the collaboration, according to her contract, she would need to pay a lot of money as compensation!She did not have such a large amount, so she would be doomed if she had to pay.Thus, she could only grit her teeth and endure it no matter how unwilling she was. She hoped that Mr. Donough was not a brute who would force himself on her without her consent!There were times when a woman was so helpless that there was nothing else she could do. She remembered the tall, muscular figure from her past. If Zayn had been there, she figured he would certainly protect her. What a shame that she had only imagined him. Her feelings for him were one-sided. He had been on her mind so many times over the past year, but Zayn never showed up.Given th
“Is that so? I look forward to it then, heh-heh.”When he said that, his expression was extremely wretched and perverted. Every person there was an adult, so they understood very well what he meant. It was apparent that he was going to use the unspoken rule on Annabelle. Such situations were not uncommon. Indeed, they were rather frequentHowever, Annabelle relied on her talents and hard work to make her way in the entertainment industry for so long. Ever since joining show business, she had never climbed the ladder through foul means. Even so, with her career in decline, she was forced to abide by the unspoken rule and found it to be extremely saddening and painful. Whatever she felt, there was nothing she could do to resist at that point. She could only accept it in silence. She felt very uneasy from Mr. Donough’s stare which seemed to be undressing her.Being in a situation like that, she could not help but think about Zayn. Although he was not that good-looking, Zayn
His expression had changed so quickly. He was still beaming a moment ago, yet he had turned solemn in a flash. Moreover, he was a perfect-class master fighter, so he was quite intimidating. How would a weak woman like Annabelle withstand his presence?All at once, Annabelle’s body shook violently in fear. Rose and the others were startled even more. She hastily said, “Please don’t be angry, Mr. Donough. Annabelle is just joking with you. She isn’t allergic to alcohol and she’s quite a good drinker.”Rose glared at Annabelle and said, “Anna, Mr. Donough is a great man. Consider yourself lucky that he wants to toast to you. Have a few drinks with him!”Annabelle felt aggrieved because she really was allergic to alcohol. Moreover, she had a very poor tolerance, so she would become intoxicated with just a small drink.She was no fool and could tell that Rose was rushing to get her into Mr. Donough’s bed so she could serve his needs. She was regarded as a tool to make money!Previous
Tears welled up in Annabelle’s eyes and she felt extremely aggrieved. However, there was nothing else that she could do. She could only compromise for the good of everyone. Rose whispered in her ear, “Think about your current situation! You’re no longer the queen that you were in the past. You’re not a famous celebrity. Nobody’s talking about you anymore, are they? It’s because of your arrogance and your poor temperament that you’ve offended way too many moguls in the entertainment industry in our country. They’ve now joined forces to force you out! Mr. Donough is your only way to rise again. If you can please him, he’ll certainly be able to boost your career when we’re back in the country!Noticing that Annabelle’s eyes were red with tears and looking grief-stricken, Rose softened her tone when she said, “Even if you won’t think for yourself, you must consider it on behalf of your family! If you were to fail at pleasing Mr. Donough this time, you’ll be breaching your contract. Ca
Annabelle nodded indifferently once again. It was as if she had already lost her soul, leaving only an empty husk of herself. The rest of the party watched them expressionlessly because they knew that Mr. Donough would certainly have a good time later. Rose smiled in relief. Her mission would be accomplished once Annabelle slept with Mr. Donough and she would be paid a handsome amount of money!As for Annabelle, she was just a tool to bring in more profit. Why would she bother with her survival?“We shall let you have some time alone then, Mr. Donough!” Rose said with a smile. Mr. Donough burst out laughing aloud. He was extremely delighted as he said, “Sure, sure.”Next, they opened the door of the private room only to discover a man was standing at the entrance. The man’s face was sallow and uninteresting, but he had a slim and tall build. A burly man angrily yelled, “Who the hell are you? Why are you blocking our way? Get the f*ck out of here!”Naturally, the intruder
He had already found his next path and he was hopeful for his future. He was convinced that he could reproduce the miracle perfectly if he had enough time!He turned around abruptly and saw Zayn’s icy cold face. He could not refrain himself from saying aloud, “Zayn! I’m your father-in-law! You can’t kill me!”There was a change of Zayn’s icy cold face at last when he heard that. He furrowed his brows for a moment. However, just as Osiris was pleased about his remark, Zayn had already thrown a punch. It was a simple, unadorned, straightforward, concise punch that landed heavily on Osiris’ chest. A poof that sounded like poking through a layer of paper was heard when he punched through Osiris’ chest. On the other hand, Osiris’ body halted to a stop as well. He widened his eyes in disbelief and lowered his head to look at his wound incredulously….“You… You…” He glared at Zayn, his gaze filled with recalcitrance, fear and regret. Zayn said nonchalantly, “You don’t deserve to be h
“You’re next.”Bang!Upon saying that, he exerted strength in his limbs and flew toward Osiris. Yes, he flew over. His body rose into the air and he was capable of standing steadily in the air without any support. He looked just like a superhero from the movies!Most importantly, he was extremely swift in speed and had already surpassed the speed limit achievable by mankind. Osiris felt an immense sense of danger that he had never felt before at this exact moment. It sent a shiver down his spine instantly and he was actually scared out of his wits that his body turned icy cold. He had a feeling that he was no match for Zayn and that he would die immediately if he stayed!Zayn who advanced beyond invincibilis state was way too powerful that he could not make sense anymore and he was no match for Zayn. He made the quickest and most precise decision that was to run. He would spare no effort in running away from Zayn!While there was life, there was hope. Zayn’s success prov
Hence, they did not have the courage to rescue Zayn even after noticing that he was in imminent danger. They could only watch helplessly and do nothing. “Look! That’s Sergeant Larson! Oh god, what transpired in the past few days? Why is Sergeant Larson being surrounded by so many powerhouses from the clubs? He can’t possibly escape from danger under such circumstances no matter how powerful he is!”“Oh no, oh no, Sergeant Larson is going to die here…”“What should we do? Could it be that we’re not going to do anything to save him?”“I don’t know. Let’s ask for instructions from our superior…”The numerous combat aircraft in the sky began to send out signals and asked for instruction from their superior. Soon, they received the reply and they were instructed not to act rashly or approach easily. It was because they would be doomed if they were to get closer and enter the attack zone of the invincibilis powerhouses. Hence, they could only watch from afar and await reinforcement
Upon saying that, Zayn placed Faye on the ground in an extremely gentle and cautious manner. Faye’s body had already become stiff, but her body had actually begun to turn soft after being caressed by Zayn’s palm. She lay flat on the ground with an expression that looked like she was asleep. After Zayn was done, he turned around and looked toward Osiris, his expression icy cold. He said nonchalantly, “It’s your fault that Fifi is dead. You deserve to die.”Next, his gaze swept across everyone and said something that terrified everyone, “All of you deserve to die!”Upon hearing that, Osiris’ expression turned somber and filled with murderous intent abruptly. He had already realized by now that his hard work and effort of a lifetime was wasted on Zayn!At the moment he found Faye in her aging state completely drained of life and power, he realized that his plan had failed!The result of his hard work for a lifetime was seized by the bastard before him!In an instant, his rage
“Zayn’s willpower is so strong that he is capable of withstanding the pain of his body’s restructuring indifferently. He’s an excellent talent.” The person speaking was the armored man and he was looking at Zayn through the cloud without attempting to conceal his admiration. He had encountered plenty of geniuses and countless geniuses more gifted in martial arts than Zayn. However, Zayn was the only ine whose willpower was so strong that he could endure the pain of body restructuring. Even he himself failed to withstand the pain of body restructuring and had rolled on the ground frantically. The woman nodded to herself as she looked at Zayn without attempting to conceal her admiration and approval. “This Earther is quite impressive. He has already taken the step successfully. My trip to Earth was not wasted this time…huh?”However, it was at this exact moment when Zayn on the ground raised his head and looked in their direction with his sharp gaze as if he could sense them.
Zayn wanted to reject her instinctively, but when he saw the final hopefulness in Faye’s eyes, he could not bring himself to reject her anymore. He knew that it was Faye’s final moment.The glint in Faye’s eyes was vanishing gradually. He opened his mouth and of all the words he wanted to say to her in her last moment, he said, “Yes!”Upon hearing the word, Faye’s aged face cracked a smile. Then, the joyous smile was frozen on her face for eternity…Zayn’s body stiffened as well. He had already forgotten how he landed on the ground, but he remained in the same position with Faye in his arms for a very long time. He hugged Faye until her residual body temperature dispersed and her body began to become stiff. Zayn was heartbroken. He felt a feeling of dejection and hollowness that he had never experienced before and it washed over his entire body like a flood. He lost track of time until he felt the rain pouring from the sky. Even the sky could feel his sorrow and began to w
Zayn had never felt so agonized in his life!It was because he knew that Faye was already at the end of her life, not even God could save her now!He had no idea why his heart would ache so badly and why he hated himself so much. It was well within his expectation that both Faye and him would not survive the fall. Now, he was in so much agony just because Faye was one step ahead of him in death. Was he in agony because Faye sacrificed her life for his survival, or was it because he would not see Faye again for the rest of his life?Zayn’s mind could not function normally anymore because he was in so much pain and tormented now. His body was still dropping constantly and at an increasing speed. They were dropping so fast that Faye could not withstand the process and was suffocating. After seeing Faye’s condition, Zayn did not even think. He began to stop his body from falling at full speed instinctively as he was born to do it until he became completely suspended in the air!I
Upon saying that, Faye kissed Zayn’s lips. It was a kiss so deep and unhindered. Zayn hugged Faye tightly as well. In the beginning, he was under the assumption that it was a very normal kiss. It was their final sentimentality before death. However, Zayn discovered that something was off soon!It was because he could clearly feel a gush of immense power passing from Faye’s mouth constantly. The intensity of the power had even surpassed that of the fruits he consumed in Shangri-la. The unexpected change caught him off guard and he was dumbfounded instantly. He did not manage to respond to the situation. What the heck was going on?He widened his eyes and stared at Faye before him. However, he soon saw something that sent a shiver down his spine. Faye’s hair turned from black to white swiftly at a visible speed!Moreover, Faye’s fair, tender skin aged constantly as if life was drained from her instantly. Her skin turned wrinkly and dry like a tree bark. The situation did
“Listen to my order, all members!”Meanwhile, Osiris spoke, his expression filled with ferocity . “Locate both of their bodies from the cliff at the fastest speed!”Upon saying that, he vanished from where he stood. Meanwhile, two people stood at a mysterious location that no one could see above Regicide Heofon’s ground. These two people were a man and a woman. The man was clad in armor and assumed the posture of an army general, filled with dominance. He exuded a powerful presence that had already surpassed the level of all powerhouses on earth. Even Osiris and Zayn were nothing in this man’s presence. On the other hand, the woman stood in front of the man. Her beauty was impeccable and she was as graceful as a fairy…The woman had her head lowered to look at the cliff ahead of her and cracked a peculiar smile. Speaking of which, it was not the first time these two people showed up on earth. They were the ones who brought up the live broadcast of Zayn and King Erik in Sha
